In the event that any financial statement or Compliance Certificate for any Reference Period ending on or after September 30, 2016 delivered pursuant to clauses (a), (b) or (c) of Section 7.1.1 is inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Revolving Loan Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered) (it being understood and agreed that a change in GAAP that has a retroactive effect shall not cause previously delivered financial statements or Compliance Certificates to be deemed to be inaccurate), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any Fiscal Quarter during such Reference Period (for purposes of this definition, an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (i) the Company shall immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected financial statement and a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on the corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, and (iii) the Company shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent (for the account of the Revolving Lenders during the Applicable Period or their successors and assigns) the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period; provided, however, that if a proper calculation of the Total Net Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for one or more Applicable Periods and lower pricing for one or more other Fiscal Quarters (due to the shifting of income or expenses from one period to another period or any similar reason reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) during such Reference Period, then the amount payable by the Company shall be based upon the excess, if any, of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid during such Reference Period (resulting solely from the correction described herein) over the amount of interest and fees paid for such Reference Period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to Section 3.2.2 and Article VIII hereof, and shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of one year.

“Applicable Net Proceeds Percentage” means, on the date on which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries receives the Net Disposition Proceeds or Net Casualty Proceeds, (a) 100% if the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio as of such date and for the most recently ended Reference Period, on a pro forma basis, is greater than or equal to 1.50 to 1.00 and (b) 0% if the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio as of such date and for the most recently ended Reference Period, on a pro forma basis, is less than 1.50 to 1.00.

“Applicant Borrower” is defined in clause (a) of Section 2.9(a).

“Available” means, in respect of any Alternate Currency and any Lender, that such Alternate Currency is, at the relevant time, readily available to such Lender as deposits in the London or other applicable interbank market in the relevant amount and for the relevant term, is freely convertible into Dollars and is freely transferable for the purposes of this Agreement, but if, notwithstanding that each of the foregoing tests is satisfied:

(a) such Alternate Currency is, under the then current legislation or regulations of the country of such Alternate Currency (or under the policy of the central bank of such country) or the F.R.S. Board, not permitted to be used for the purposes of this Agreement;

(b) there is no, or only insignificant, investor demand for the making of advances having an Interest Period equivalent to that for the Eurocurrency Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency which the Borrowers have requested be made; or

(c) there are policy or other reasons which make it undesirable or impractical for a Lender to make a Eurocurrency Loan denominated in such Alternate Currency available as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion;

Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by the Company hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any Currency for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent as so determined by the Administrative Agent. Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a Credit Extension, conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Loan, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such Credit Extension is denominated in an Alternate Currency, such amount shall be the relevant Alternate Currency Equivalent of such Dollars, as determined by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 1.6 Redenomination of Certain Foreign Currencies and Computation of Dollar Amounts. Each obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Credit Extension in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Credit Extension, at the end of the then current Interest Period. Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro. References herein to minimum Dollar amounts and integral multiples stated in Dollars, where they shall also be applicable to Alternate Currency, shall be deemed to refer to approximate Alternate Currency Equivalents.

SECTION 1.7 American Legal Terms. References to any legal term or concept (including without limitation those for any action, remedy, method of judicial proceeding, document, statute, court official, governmental authority or agency) shall in respect of any jurisdiction other than the United States be construed as references to the term or concept which most nearly corresponds to it in that jurisdiction.

SECTION 2.1 Commitments. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders and the Issuers severally agree to make Credit Extensions as set forth below.

Section 2.1.1 Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans.

(a) From time to time on any Business Day occurring on and after the Closing Date, but prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, each Lender that has a Revolving Loan Commitment (referred to as a “Revolving Lender”) agrees that it will make loans (relative to such Lender, its “Revolving Loans”) (i) to the Company, denominated in Dollars or an Alternate Currency, and (ii) to any Designated Borrower, denominated in Dollars or an Alternate Currency, in each case, equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of the aggregate amount of each Borrowing of the Revolving Loans requested by the applicable Borrower to be made on such day; and

(b) From time to time on any Business Day occurring on and after the Closing Date, but prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, (i) the U.S. Swingline Lender agrees that it will make loans (its “U.S. Swingline Loans”) denominated in Dollars to the Company equal to the principal amount of the U.S. Swingline Loan requested by the Company to be made on such day and (ii) the Euro Swingline Lender agrees that it will make loans (“Euro Swingline Loans” and, together with the U.S. Swingline Loans, the “Swingline Loans”) denominated in Euros to the Company equal to the principal amount of the Euro Swingline Loan requested by the Company to be made on such day. The Commitment of (i) the U.S. Swingline Lender described in clause (b)(i) is herein referred to as its “U.S. Swingline Loan Commitment” and (ii) the Euro Swingline Lender described in clause (b)(ii) is herein referred to as its “Euro Swingline Loan Commitment” and, together with the U.S. Swingline Loan Commitment, the “Swingline Loan Commitment”.

On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Borrowers may from time to time borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans. No Revolving Lender shall be permitted or required to make any Revolving Loan if, after giving effect thereto, (a) the Dollar Equivalent of such Lender’s Revolving Exposure would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, (b) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of Alternate Currency Loans, together with the Dollar Equivalent of Letters of Credit outstanding denominated in an Alternate Currency, would exceed the Alternate Currency Commitment Amount, or (c) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans outstanding together with the Dollar Equivalent of Letters of Credit Outstanding would exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount. Furthermore, (i) (x) the U.S. Swingline Lender shall not be permitted or required to make U.S. Swingline Loans if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all U.S. Swingline Loans would exceed the then existing U.S. Swingline Loan Commitment Amount and (y) the Euro Swingline Lender shall not be permitted or required to make Euro Swingline Loans if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Euro Swingline Loans would exceed the then existing Euro Swingline Loan Commitment Amount or (ii) the applicable Swingline Lender shall not be permitted or required to make applicable Swingline Loans if, after giving effect thereto, unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Swingline Lender, in its sole discretion, the sum of all applicable Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans made by the applicable Swingline Lender plus the applicable Swingline Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit outstanding would exceed the applicable Swingline Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.

Section 2.1.2 Letter of Credit Commitment. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Existing Letters of Credit shall continue as Letters of Credit for all purposes under this Agreement and the Loan Documents. From time to time on any Business Day occurring from the Closing Date but three days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, the relevant Issuer agrees that it will:

(a) issue one or more letters of credit (relative to such Issuer, its “Letter of Credit”) in Dollars or in an Alternate Currency for the account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary (in which case the Company shall also have reimbursement obligations relating to such Letters of Credit) in the Stated Amount requested by the applicable Borrower on such day; provided, that at no point shall either of the Issuers be obligated to issue Letters of Credit in an aggregate Stated Amount in excess of 50.0% of the Letter of Credit Commitment Amount; or

(b) extend the Stated Expiry Date of an existing Letter of Credit previously issued hereunder.

No Issuer shall be permitted or required to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the Dollar Equivalent (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the then existing Letter of Credit Commitment Amount or (ii) the sum of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings plus the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding would exceed the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.

Section 2.1.3 Term Loans.

(a) Each Term Loan Lender that has a U.S. Dollar Term Loan Commitment (referred to as a “U.S. Dollar Term Loan Lender”) agrees to make a loan to the Company on the Closing Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed its U.S. Dollar Term Loan Commitment Amount set forth opposite its name on Schedule III. The U.S. Dollar Term Loans may from time to time be Eurocurrency Loans or Base Rate Loans, as determined by the Company and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.3.1 and 2.7.

(b) Each Term Loan Lender that has a Euro Term Loan Commitment (referred to as a “Euro Term Loan Lender”) agrees to make a loan to the Company on the Closing Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed its Euro Term Loan Commitment Amount set forth opposite its name on Schedule III. The Euro Term Loans shall be EURIBOR Loans.

Subject to Sections 3.1.1 and 3.3, all amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Term Loans shall be paid in full no later than the applicable Stated Term Maturity Date. The Term Loan Commitments of each Term Loan Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero Dollars upon the funding of the Term Loans to be made by such Term Loan Lenders on the Closing Date. No amounts paid or prepaid with respect to Term Loans may be reborrowed.

SECTION 2.2 Reduction of the Commitment Amounts. The Company may, from time to time on any Business Day occurring after the Closing Date, voluntarily reduce any Commitment Amount (among the Lenders on a pro rata basis with respect to the applicable Class of Commitments) on the Business Day so specified by the Company; provided, that all such reductions shall require at least three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent and be permanent, and any partial reduction of any Commitment Amount shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000, provided, further, that the Company shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ written notice to, and the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of, the Administrative Agent, to automatically and without any further action by any Person and notwithstanding anything contained

herein to the contrary and subject to the reallocation (or cash collateralization) of Letter of Credit Outstandings and participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.10, to permanently terminate any then unfunded Revolving Loan Commitments of a Defaulting Lender, whereupon such Defaulting Lender shall cease to have any Revolving Loan Commitments hereunder and the Company shall not be permitted to reborrow any outstanding Revolving Loans of such Defaulting Lender that are repaid or prepaid hereunder (and, for the avoidance of doubt, upon any such repayment or prepayment, the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Lender corresponding to the amount so repaid or prepaid shall be deemed permanently terminated). Any optional or mandatory reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount pursuant to the terms of this Agreement which reduces the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount below the sum of (a) (i) the U.S. Swingline Loan Commitment Amount plus the Euro Swingline Loan Commitment Amount, (b) the Alternate Currency Commitment Amount and (c) the Letter of Credit Commitment Amount shall result in an automatic and corresponding reduction of the U.S. Swingline Loan Commitment Amount and Euro Swingline Loan Commitment Amount on a pro rata basis, Alternate Currency Commitment Amount and/or Letter of Credit Commitment Amount (as directed by the Borrowers in a notice to the Administrative Agent delivered together with the notice of such voluntary reduction in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount) to an aggregate amount not in excess of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, as so reduced, without any further action on the part of any Swingline Lender, any Revolving Lender or any Issuer.

SECTION 2.3 Borrowing Procedures. Loans (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made by the Lenders in accordance with Section 2.3.1, and Swingline Loans shall be made by the Swingline Lenders in accordance with Section 2.3.2.

Section 2.3.1 Borrowing Procedure. In the case of (i) Loans (other than Swingline Loans and Euro Term Loans), by delivering a Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent on or before 12:00 noon on a Business Day, the Borrowers may from time to time irrevocably request, on the proposed date of the Borrowing in the case of Base Rate Loans, or on three Business Days’ notice in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars, or on no less than five Business Days’, in the case of Alternate Currency Loans, that a Borrowing be made, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof), in the case of Base Rate Loans, in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000 or, in either case, in the unused amount of the applicable Commitment. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each Borrowing shall be comprised of the type of Loans, and shall be made on the Business Day and in the Currency specified in such Borrowing Request and (ii) Euro Term Loans, by delivering a Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent on or before 12:00 noon, on no less than five Business Days’ notice, the Borrower may irrevocably request that Euro Term Loans be made as EURIBOR Loans. In the case of Loans (other than Swingline Loans), on or before 2:00 p.m. on such Business Day each Lender that has a Commitment to make the Loans being requested shall deposit with the Administrative Agent same day funds in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the requested Borrowing. Such deposit will be made to the applicable account which the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Lenders. To the extent funds are received from the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the applicable Borrower by wire transfer to the account such Borrower shall have specified in its Borrowing Request. No Lender’s obligation to make any Loan shall be affected by any other Lender’s failure to make any Loan.

Section 2.3.2 Swingline Loans; Participations, etc.

(a) By telephonic notice to the applicable Swingline Lender on or before 2:00 p.m. on a Business Day (promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by such Swingline Lender), the Borrowers may from time to time irrevocably request that Swingline Loans be made by such Swingline Lender in an

aggregate minimum principal amount of $500,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000. All Swingline Loans shall be made as (i) Base Rate Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into Eurocurrency Loans or (ii) Daily LIBOR Rate Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into Eurocurrency Loans. The proceeds of each Swingline Loan shall be made available by such Swingline Lender to the applicable Borrower by wire transfer to the account such Borrower shall have specified in its notice therefor by the close of business on the Business Day telephonic notice is received by such Swingline Lender. Upon the making of each Swingline Loan, and without further action on the part of such Swingline Lender or any other Person, each Revolving Lender (other than such Swingline Lender) shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, a participation interest in such Swingline Loan, and such Revolving Lender shall, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, be responsible for reimbursing within one Business Day such Swingline Lender for Swingline Loans which have not been reimbursed by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If (i) any Swingline Loan shall be outstanding for more than thirty Business Days, (ii) any Swingline Loan is or will be outstanding on a date when any Borrower requests that a Revolving Loan be made, or (iii) any Default shall occur and be continuing, then each Revolving Lender (other than the applicable Swingline Lender) irrevocably agrees that it will, at the request of such Swingline Lender, make a Revolving Loan (which shall initially be funded as a Base Rate Loan) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of all such Swingline Loans then outstanding (such outstanding Swingline Loans hereinafter referred to as the “Refunded Swingline Loans”). On or before 11:00 a.m. on the first Business Day following receipt by each Revolving Lender of a request to make Revolving Loans as provided in the preceding sentence, each Revolving Lender shall deposit in an account specified by such Swingline Lender the amount so requested in same day funds and such funds shall be applied by such Swingline Lender to repay the Refunded Swingline Loans. At the time the Revolving Lenders make the above referenced Revolving Loans, such Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have made, in consideration of the making of the Refunded Swingline Loans, Revolving Loans in an amount equal to such Swingline Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Refunded Swingline Loans. Upon the making (or deemed making, in the case of such Swingline Lender) of any Revolving Loans pursuant to this clause, the amount so funded shall become an outstanding Revolving Loan and shall no longer be owed as a Swingline Loan. All interest payable with respect to any Revolving Loans made (or deemed made, in the case of such Swingline Lender) pursuant to this clause shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the period of time during which such Swingline Lender had outstanding Swingline Loans in respect of which such Revolving Loans were made. Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Loans referred to in this clause shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against such Swingline Lender, any Obligor or any Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of any Default; (B) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Obligor; (D) the acceleration or maturity of any Obligations or the termination of any Commitment after the making of any Swingline Loan; (E) any breach of any Loan Document by any Person; or (F) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(c) In addition to making Swingline Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, without the requirement for a specific request from the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.3.2(a), the applicable Swingline Lender may make Swingline Loans to the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of any agreements between one or more of the Borrowers and such Swingline Lender relating to the Borrowers’ deposit, sweep and other accounts with such Swingline Lender and related arrangements and agreements regarding the management and investment of the Borrowers’ cash assets as in effect from time to time (the “Cash Management Agreements”) to the extent of the daily aggregate net negative balance in the Borrowers’ accounts which are subject to the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements. Swingline Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.3.2(c) in accordance with the provisions

of the Cash Management Agreements shall (i) be subject to the limitations as to aggregate amount set forth in Section 2.1.1, (ii) be subject to any limitations as to individual amount set forth in the Cash Management Agreement, (iii) be payable by the Borrowers, both as to principal and interest, at the times set forth in the Cash Management Agreements (but in no event later than the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date), (iv) not be made at any time after such Swingline Lender has notice of the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (v) if not repaid by the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements, be subject to each Revolving Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests therein pursuant to Section 2.3.2(b), and (vi) except as provided in the foregoing subsections (i) through (v), be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 2.3.

SECTION 2.4 Continuation and Conversion Elections. By delivering prior telephonic notice to the Administrative Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. on a Business Day (such notice to be confirmed in writing within 24 hours thereafter by delivery of a Continuation/Conversion Notice), any Borrower may from time to time irrevocably elect:

(a) on not less than three Business Days’ notice, the conversion of any Base Rate Loan into one or more Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars or the continuation of any Eurocurrency Loan denominated in Dollars as a Eurocurrency Loan so denominated; and

(b) on not less than five Business Days’ notice, the continuation of any Eurocurrency Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency as a Eurocurrency Loan denominated in such Alternate Currency;

provided that any portion of any Loan which is continued or converted hereunder shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in an integral multiple amount of $1,000,000; and provided, further, that in the absence of prior notice (which notice may be delivered telephonically followed by written confirmation within 24 hours thereafter by delivery of a Continuation/Conversion Notice) with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan denominated in Dollars at least three Business Days (or, with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency, at least five Business Days) before the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, such Eurocurrency Loan shall, on such last day, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan (and any such Eurocurrency Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency shall be redenominated in Dollars); provided, that (i) each such conversion or continuation shall be prorated among the applicable outstanding Loans of all Lenders that have made such Loans, and (ii) no portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Loans may be continued as, or be converted into, Eurocurrency Loans when any Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 2.5 Alternate Currency Loans.

(a) If any Borrower requests a Borrowing (not including Euro Term Loans) in an Alternate Currency, or if pursuant to any Continuation/Conversion Notice a Borrower elects to continue any Eurocurrency Loan denominated in an Alternate Currency, the Administrative Agent shall in the notice given to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.3 or Section 2.4, as the case may be, give details of such request or election including, without limitation, as the case may be, the aggregate principal amount of the Borrowing in such Alternate Currency to be made by each Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the aggregate principal amount of such Eurocurrency Loans to be continued by each Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Each Lender shall be treated as having confirmed that the Alternate Currency requested, or elected by the applicable Borrower to be continued, is Available to it unless no later than 9:00 a.m. on the day three Business Days before the date of the requested Borrowing or the proposed continuation it shall have notified the Administrative Agent that such Alternate Currency is not Available.

(c) In the event that the Administrative Agent has received notification from any of the Lenders that the Alternate Currency requested or elected by the applicable Borrower to be continued is not Available, then the Administrative Agent shall notify such Borrower and the Lenders no later than 10:00 a.m. on the day three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or proposed continuation.

(d) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Borrower pursuant to clause (c) above that any of the Lenders has notified the Administrative Agent that the Alternate Currency requested or elected by such Borrower to be continued or converted is not Available, such notification shall (i) in the case of any Borrowing Request, revoke such Borrowing Request and (ii) in the case of any Continuation/Conversion Notice, such continuation/conversion with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn and such Alternate Currency Loans shall be redenominated into Base Rate Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of any such redenomination and in such notice by the Administrative Agent to each Lender the Administrative Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Alternate Currency Loans as of the Revaluation Date with respect thereto and such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the existence of an Event of Default, upon the request of the Required Lenders, all or any part of any outstanding Alternate Currency Loans shall be redenominated and converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Alternate Currency Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Borrowers and the applicable Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, of any such redenomination and conversion request.

SECTION 2.6 Funding. Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its obligation to make, continue or convert Loans, as applicable, hereunder by causing one of its foreign branches or Affiliates (or an international banking facility created by such Lender) to make or maintain such Loans, as applicable; provided, that such Loans shall nonetheless be deemed to have been made and to be held by such Lender, and the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Loans, as applicable, shall nevertheless be to such Lender for the account of such foreign branch, Affiliate or international banking facility. In addition, each Borrower hereby consents and agrees that, for purposes of any determination to be made for purposes of Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4 it shall be conclusively assumed that each Lender elected to fund all Eurocurrency Loans or EURIBOR Loan, as applicable, by purchasing deposits in the relevant Currency in its Domestic Office’s interbank Eurodollar market. Each Lender may, at its option, make any Loan available to any Designated Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided, that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of such Designated Borrower to repay such Alternate Currency Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.7 Letter of Credit Issuance Procedures. By delivering to the Administrative Agent an Issuance Request on or before 12:00 noon on a Business Day, the Borrowers may from time to time irrevocably request on not less than three Business Days’ notice, in the case of an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit and not less than three Business Days’ prior notice, in the case of a request for the extension of the Stated Expiry Date of a Letter of Credit (in each case, unless a shorter notice period is agreed to by the relevant Issuer, in its sole discretion), that an Issuer issue, or extend the Stated Expiry Date of, a Letter of Credit in such form as may be requested by the applicable Borrower and approved by such Issuer, solely for the purposes described in Section 7.1.7. Upon receipt of an Issuance Request, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Issuer whether, after giving effect to the issuance of the applicable Letter of Credit, (a) the Dollar Equivalent (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the then existing Letter of Credit Commitment Amount and (b) the sum of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit

Outstandings plus the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding would exceed the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount. Each Letter of Credit shall by its terms be stated to expire on a date (its “Stated Expiry Date”) no later than the earlier to occur of (i) five Business Days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date and (ii) (unless otherwise agreed to by an Issuer, in its sole discretion), thirteen months from the date of its issuance; provided, that any Letter of Credit may provide for renewal periods of up to one year so long as such renewal periods do not exceed the date set forth in clause (i). Each Issuer will make available to the beneficiary thereof the original of the Letter of Credit which it issues. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall be subject to the customary procedures of the applicable Issuer.

Section 2.7.1 Other Lenders Participation. Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, and without further action, each Revolving Lender (other than the Issuer) shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, a participation interest in such Letter of Credit (including the Contingent Liability and any Reimbursement Obligation with respect thereto), and such Revolving Lender shall, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, be responsible for reimbursing the Issuer within one Business Day of receiving notice from the Issuer for Reimbursement Obligations which have not been reimbursed by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.7.2 and Section 2.7.3 (with the terms of this Section surviving the termination of this Agreement). In addition, such Revolving Lender shall, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage, be entitled to receive a ratable portion of the Letter of Credit fees payable pursuant to Section 3.3.2 with respect to each Letter of Credit (other than the issuance fees payable to the Issuer of such Letter of Credit pursuant to the last sentence of Section 3.3.2(b)) and of interest payable pursuant to Section 3.2 with respect to any Reimbursement Obligation. To the extent that any Revolving Lender has reimbursed any Issuer for a Disbursement, such Lender shall be entitled to receive its ratable portion of any amounts subsequently received (from the Borrowers or otherwise) in respect of such Disbursement.

Section 2.7.2 Disbursements. An Issuer will notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly of the presentment of any drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer, together with notice of the date (the “Disbursement Date”) such payment shall be made (each such payment, a “Disbursement”). Subject to the terms and provisions of such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuer shall make such payment to the beneficiary (or its designee) of such Letter of Credit. Prior to 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day following the Disbursement Date, the applicable Borrower will reimburse the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuer, for all amounts which such Issuer has disbursed under such Letter of Credit, such payments to be made in Dollars (and in the amount which is the Dollar Equivalent of any such payment or disbursement made or denominated in an Alternate Currency) together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum then in effect for Base Rate Loans (with the then Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans accruing on such amount) pursuant to Section 3.2 for the period from the Disbursement Date through the date of such reimbursement. Without limiting in any way the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any separate application for any Letter of Credit, each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuer upon each Disbursement of a Letter of Credit, and it shall be deemed to be the Obligor for purposes of each such Letter of Credit issued hereunder (whether the account party on such Letter of Credit is a Borrower or a Subsidiary).

Section 2.7.3 Reimbursement. The obligation (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) of the Borrowers under Section 2.7.2 to reimburse an Issuer with respect to each Disbursement (including interest thereon), and, upon the failure of the Borrowers to reimburse an Issuer, each Revolving Lender’s obligation under Section 2.7.1 to reimburse an Issuer, shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrowers or such Revolving Lender, as the case may be, may have or have had against such Issuer or any Lender,

including any defense based upon the failure of any Disbursement to conform to the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit (if, in such Issuer’s good faith opinion, such Disbursement is determined to be appropriate); provided, that after paying in full its Reimbursement Obligation hereunder, nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of the Borrowers or such Lender, as the case may be, to commence any proceeding against an Issuer for any wrongful Disbursement made by such Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuer.

Section 2.7.4 Cash Collateralization. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.10(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.

(a) The Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuers and the Revolving Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Commitments, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuers as herein provided (other than Permitted Liens), or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrowers will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.7.4 or Section 2.10 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Commitments (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(c) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuer’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.7.4 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, that, subject to Section 2.10 the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrowers, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

Section 2.7.5 Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. The Borrowers, each other Obligor and, to the extent set forth in Section 2.7.1, each Revolving Lender shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. No Issuer (except to the extent of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct) shall be responsible for:

(a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if such Issuer shall have been notified thereof);

(b) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or the proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason;

(c) failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit or any other claim of the Borrowers against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among the Borrowers and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee;

(d) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher;

(e) any loss or delay in-the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required in order to make a Disbursement under a Letter of Credit;

(f) errors in interpretation of technical terms;

(g) the misapplication or non-application by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or

(h) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuer, including any governmental acts and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of such Issuer’s rights or powers hereunder.

None of the foregoing shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted to any Issuer or any Revolving Lender hereunder. In furtherance and not in limitation or derogation of any of the foregoing, any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuer in good faith (and not constituting gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct) shall be binding upon each Obligor and each Lender, and shall not put such Issuer under any resulting liability to any Obligor or any Lender, as the case may be.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Issuer (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by such Issuer to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by such Issuer; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on such Issuer in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any

drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

SECTION 2.8 Register; Notes. The Register shall be maintained on the following terms.

(a) The Borrowers hereby designate the Administrative Agent to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Administrative Agent will record the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of and stated interest on the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time, annexed to which the relevant Administrative Agent shall retain a copy of each Lender Assignment Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.11. Failure to make any recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Obligor’s Obligations. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative 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 the purposes of all Loan Documents, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. Any assignment or transfer of a Commitment or the Loans made pursuant hereto shall be registered in the Register only upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Lender Assignment Agreement that has been executed by the requisite parties pursuant to Section 10.11. No assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or Loans shall be effective unless such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by the Administrative Agent as provided in this Section.

(b) Each Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, such Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a Note evidencing the Loans made by, and payable to, such Lender and its registered assigns in a maximum principal amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the original applicable Commitment Amount. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to such Lender’s Note (or on any continuation of such grid), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal amount of, and the interest rate and Interest Period applicable to the Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall, to the extent not inconsistent with notations made by the Administrative Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding on each Obligor absent manifest error; provided, that the failure of any Lender to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Obligor.

SECTION 2.9 Designated Borrowers.

(a) The Company may at any time, upon not less than thirty Business Days’ notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), designate one or more Wholly Owned Subsidiaries organized under the laws of Ireland or the Kingdom of the Netherlands (each an “Applicant Borrower”), as a Designated Borrower to receive Loans denominated in either Dollars or an Alternate Currency under the Revolving Facility by delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver counterparts thereof to each applicable Lender) a duly executed notice and agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit H-1 (a “Designated Borrower Request and Assumption Agreement”). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Borrower becoming entitled to become a Designated Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received (i) such supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that the forms of deliverables made on the Closing Date are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), as may be required by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, and Notes signed by such new Borrowers to the extent any Lenders so require, (ii) within five Business Days’ prior to the Applicant Borrower becoming a

Designated Borrower, such Patriot Act Disclosures as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and (iii) if the Applicant Borrower is organized or incorporated in or under the laws of, or for applicable Tax purposes is resident of or treated as engaged in a trade or business in, any jurisdiction other than a jurisdiction in or under the laws of which at least one of the then-existing Borrowers is organized or incorporated on the date such Designated Borrower Request and Assumption Agreement is delivered to the Administrative Agent, an amendment of this Agreement (which may include, without limitation, the definition of “Non-Excluded Taxes”, Section 4.6 and any applicable representation and warranty, covenant or condition to Credit Extension) and the other Loan Documents to include such Subsidiary as a Borrower hereunder, which amendment must be as mutually agreed by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the applicable Applicant Borrower and each Revolving Lender and, if applicable, each Incremental Lender providing any Incremental Commitments to such Designated Borrower as of such date (provided that no such amendment shall materially adversely affect the rights of any Lender that has not consented to such amendment). Promptly following receipt of all such documents or information, the Administrative Agent shall send a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit H-2 (a “Designated Borrower Notice”) to the Company, the Issuer and the Lenders specifying the effective date upon which the Applicant Borrower shall constitute a Designated Borrower for purposes hereof, whereupon each of the Lenders agrees to permit such Designated Borrower to receive Alternate Currency Loans hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and each of the parties agrees that such Designated Borrower otherwise shall be a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement, subject to the modifications for such Designated Borrower, as set forth in this Section 2.9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the Obligations of any Designated Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be several but not joint with the Obligations of the Company or any other Designated Borrower (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be jointly and severally liable for the Designated Borrower Obligations). The Collateral of the Designated Borrowers shall not secure or be applied in satisfaction, by way of payment, prepayment or otherwise, of all or any portion of the Obligations of the Company.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law and so long as there are no material adverse tax consequences to the Company or its Subsidiaries, each Designated Borrower or the Company, as applicable, will cause each of its Subsidiaries (including any subsequently acquired or created Subsidiary) (i) organized under the laws of Australia, the Kingdom of the Netherlands or the United Kingdom, to execute a Subsidiary Guaranty (Foreign) guaranteeing the Obligations of such Designated Borrower and each Designated Borrower will and will cause each of such Subsidiaries to execute any documentation and take all other actions deemed reasonably necessary by the Collateral Agent to secure the Obligations of such Designated Borrower and such Subsidiaries hereunder or under such Subsidiary Guaranty (Foreign), as applicable and grant Liens on such Person’s assets, in a manner and to the extent that a U.S. Subsidiary is required to secure the Obligations of the Company and its Obligations hereunder and under the Guaranty (Domestic) pursuant to the terms hereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 6.2.4) and the Guaranty (Domestic), provided that, in no event shall any Designated Borrower or any Designated Subsidiary Guarantor be required to grant a Lien in favor of the Lenders on any asset located in any jurisdiction other than Australia, the Kingdom of the Netherlands or the United Kingdom and (ii) organized under the laws of Germany to execute an unsecured Subsidiary Guaranty (Foreign) guaranteeing the Obligations of such Designated Borrower, in each case, within 60 days of such acquisition or creation (or such later date as agreed to by the Administrative Agent).

(c) Each Subsidiary of the Company that becomes a “Designated Borrower” pursuant to this Section hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including (i) the giving and receipt of notices, (ii) the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto, and (iii) the receipt of the proceeds of any Alternate Currency Loans made by the Lenders, to any

such Designated Borrower hereunder. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all Borrowers, or by each Borrower acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Company, whether or not any such other Borrower joins therein. Any notice, demand, consent, acknowledgement, direction, certification or other communication delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Designated Borrower.

(d) The Company may from time to time, upon not less than thirty Business Days’ notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), terminate a Designated Borrower’s status as such; provided, that there are no outstanding Alternate Currency Loans payable by such Designated Borrower, or other amounts payable by such Designated Borrower on account of any Alternate Currency Loans made to it, as of the effective date of such termination. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Issuer and the Lenders of any such termination of a Designated Borrower’s status and the status of each Subsidiary of such Designated Borrower. Upon the termination of a Designated Borrower’s status as such, the Administrative Agent will provide such releases and other documents reasonably requested by the Company or such Designated Borrower and each Subsidiary of such Designated Borrower, as applicable, to evidence the foregoing.

SECTION 2.10 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, 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.

(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 VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.9 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 Issuer or any Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.7.4; fourth, as the Company 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 Company, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.7.4; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuers or Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuers or Swingline Lenders 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 the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the

Borrowers 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 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 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Letter of Credit Outstandings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Commitment and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the Term Facility or Revolving Facility, as applicable, without giving effect to Section 2.10(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 2.10(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Letter of Credit fees payable pursuant to Section 3.3.2 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Percentage of the Stated Amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.7.4.

(C) With respect to any commitment fee or Letter of Credit fees payable pursuant to Section 3.3.2 not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Company 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 Commitment or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuer and each Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuer’s or such 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 Letter of Credit Commitment and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that 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 Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.7.4.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Swingline Lender and Issuer 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), that 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 Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the Term Facility or Revolving Facility, as applicable (without giving effect to Section 2.10(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 Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and 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 that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lenders shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) no Issuer 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 2.11 Increases in Commitments.

(a) The Company may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request the establishment of one or more new term loans denominated in Dollars, an Alternate Currency or any other currency agreed to by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing such new term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) or an increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount (the “Incremental Revolving Commitments” and, together with the Incremental Term Loans, the “Incremental Commitments”) from existing Lenders (each of which shall be (A) an Eligible Assignee, (B) subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (C) entitled to elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Commitments) and additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders who will become Lenders in connection therewith, in an aggregate amount for all such Incremental Commitments not in excess of (i) $250,000,000 (or a principal amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of $250,000,000) less the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clause (1) of Section 7.2.2(n) at or prior to such time plus (ii) additional amounts so long as, on a pro forma basis on the date of incurrence, after giving effect to the incurrence of any such Incremental Commitment (assuming the full amount of any such concurrently established Incremental Revolving Commitment is drawn) and after giving effect to any pro forma adjustments for transactions consummated in connection therewith, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio does not exceed 3.00 to 1.00; provided that, to the extent any such Incremental Commitments are intended to be applied to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, for the purposes of determining pro forma compliance with the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio the date of determination thereof shall, at the Company’s option, be the LCA Test Date, and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Reference Period ending prior to the LCA Test Date, the Company could

have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, such Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to have been complied with. Each such notice shall specify (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Commitment being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 (or a principal amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000) and a minimum amount of $25,000,000 (or a principal amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of $25,000,000) or such lesser amount equal to the remaining amount of Incremental Revolving Commitments) and (ii) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Company proposes that the Incremental Commitments shall be effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent).

(b) Such Incremental Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided, that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments; provided, that if the proceeds thereof are being used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, then the condition set forth in this clause (i) shall only be required to be satisfied as of the LCA Test Date; (ii) any such Incremental Term Loans (A) may rank pari passu or junior in right or payment and/or with respect to security with the Obligations or may be unsecured (subject, if applicable, to an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement), (B) if secured, may not be secured by any assets other than Collateral, (C) if guaranteed, may not be guaranteed by any Person who is not a Guarantor and (D) if secured on a second lien or junior lien basis to the Obligations or unsecured (any such Incremental Facility, “Incremental Equivalent Debt”), such Loans will be documented in a separate facility and not in this Agreement and will be subject to an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (if secured) and/or Acceptable Subordination Agreement, as applicable; (iii) any such Incremental Revolving Commitments shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans; (iv) the All-in Yield relating to the Incremental Term Loans shall be determined by the Company and the applicable Incremental Lenders; provided, that, prior to the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are pari passu in right of payment and security with the Term Loans (including for the avoidance of doubt, both U.S. Dollar Term Loans and Euro Term Loans regardless of the currency of the Incremental Term Loans) entered into on the Closing Date, if the All-In Yield exceeds the spread with respect to any then-existing Term Loans (including for the avoidance of doubt, both U.S. Dollar Term Loans and Euro Term Loans regardless of the currency of the Incremental Term Loans) by more than 0.50% per annum, the Applicable Margin relating to such existing Term Loans shall be adjusted so that the All-In Yield relating to such Incremental Term Loans does not exceed the interest rate (including the Applicable Margin) payable pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as amended through the date of such calculation with respect to such Term Loans (other than Incremental Commitments to the extent the terms governing such Incremental Commitments do not so provide) by more than 0.50% per annum (for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the foregoing calculation shall be made, on any Increased Amount Date on which Incremental Term Loans denominated in both Dollars and Euros are established, by comparing (x) the initial yield on the Incremental Term Loans denominated in Dollars made on such Increased Amount Date to the Applicable Rate then in effect for the outstanding U.S. Dollar Term Loans denominated in Dollars made prior to such Increased Amount Date and (y) the initial yield on the Incremental Term Loans denominated in Euros made on such Increased Amount Date to the Applicable Rate then in effect for the outstanding Euro Term Loans denominated in Euros made prior to such Increased Amount Date); (v) the Incremental Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of Term Loans hereunder, as specified in the applicable incremental amendment or other definitive documentation therefor; (vi) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, the maturity date thereof shall not be earlier than the applicable Stated Term Maturity Date and the weighted average life to maturity shall be equal to or greater than the weighted average life to maturity of Term Loans; (vii) the terms and provisions of additional Revolving Loans made under Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be identical to those of the existing Revolving Loan Commitments; (viii) except as otherwise required in

clauses (iv) through (vii) above, the terms of any Incremental Term Loans shall be no more favorable (taken as a whole) to the lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans than the terms of the initial U.S. Dollar Term Loans or Euro Term Loans, as applicable (except to the extent such terms are applicable after the applicable Stated Term Maturity Date); (ix) such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Incremental Assumption Agreements executed and delivered by the Company, the Administrative Agent and one or more Incremental Lenders; (x) the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered any customary legal opinions, or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction; (xi) the conditions set forth in Section 5.2.1(a) shall be satisfied; provided, however, that if the proceeds thereof are being used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, then the condition set forth in this clause (xi) shall be limited to customary “SunGard” representations and warranties; and (xii) all fees and expenses owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in respect of such Incremental Commitments shall have been paid. Any Incremental Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date that have terms and provisions that differ from those of the U.S. Dollar Term Loans or Euro Term Loans, as applicable, outstanding on the date on which such Incremental Term Loans are made shall be designated as a separate tranche (a “Tranche”) of Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement, except as the relevant Incremental Assumption Agreement otherwise provides. For the avoidance of doubt, the rate of interest and the amortization schedule (if applicable) of any Incremental Commitments shall be determined by the Company and the applicable Incremental Lenders and shall be set forth in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement.

(c) On any Increased Amount Date on which any Incremental Commitment becomes effective, each lender with an Incremental Commitment (each, an “Incremental Lender”) (other than with respect to Incremental Equivalent Debt) shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Incremental Commitment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Commitments, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount or the Term Loan Commitment Amount, and the Administrative Agent and the Company may revise this Agreement to evidence such amendments. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount or the Term Loan Commitment Amount. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Company, take any and all action (including pursuant to amendments as specified in this Section 2.11) as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, upon the effectiveness of each increase in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount (i) all Borrowings and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis and (ii) all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all Revolving Lenders.

(d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Term Loans that are to be additional U.S. Dollar Term Loans or Euro Term Loans, as applicable, and when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding U.S. Dollar Term Loans or Euro Term Loans, as applicable, on a pro rata basis. This may be accomplished at the discretion of the Administrative Agent by requiring each outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing or EURIBOR Rate Borrowing to be converted into a Base Rate Borrowing on the date of each such Incremental Term Loan, or by allocating a portion of each such Incremental Term Loan to each outstanding applicable Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing or EURIBOR Rate Borrowing, as applicable, on a pro rata basis, even though as a result thereof such Incremental Term Loan may effectively have a shorter Interest Period than the Loans included in the Borrowing of which they are a part (and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement that would prohibit such an initial Interest Period). Any conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Borrowing, as applicable to Base Rate Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 4.4. If any Incremental Term Loan is to be allocated to an existing Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Rate

Borrowing or EURIBOR Rate Borrowing then, subject to Section 3.1.1, the interest rate applicable to such Incremental Term Loan for the remainder of such Interest Period shall equal the Eurocurrency Rate or EURIBOR Rate, as applicable, for a period approximately equal to the remainder of such Interest Period (as determined by the Administrative Agent two Business Days before the date such Incremental Term Loan is made) plus the Applicable Margin then in effect. In addition, to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are to be additional U.S. Dollar Term Loans or Euro Term Loans, the applicable scheduled amortization payments under Section 3.1.1 required to be made after the making of such Incremental Term Loans shall be ratably increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans.

ARTICLE III

REPAYMENTS, PREPAYMENTS, INTEREST AND FEES

SECTION 3.1 Repayments and Prepayments; Application. The Borrowers agree that the Loans shall be repaid and prepaid pursuant to the following terms.

Section 3.1.1 Repayments and Prepayments. The Borrowers shall repay in full the unpaid principal amount of each Loan upon the applicable Stated Maturity Date therefor. Prior thereto, payments and prepayments of the Loans shall or may be made as set forth below.

(a) From time to time on any Business Day, the Borrowers may make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any:

(i) Loans (other than Swingline Loans); provided, that

(A) any such prepayment shall be made pro rata among Loans of the same type and denominated in the same Currency, if applicable, having the same Interest Period of all Lenders that have made such Loans, and in the case of Term Loans, applied to the remaining amortization payments in such amounts as the Borrowers shall determine;

(B) no such prepayment of any Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan may be made on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan unless payments required, if any, pursuant to Section 4.4 are made;

(C) a written notice of each such voluntary prepayment with respect to any Loan shall be received by the Administrative Agent by 12:00 noon, in the case of Base Rate Loans, at least one Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment, and in the case of Eurocurrency Loans or EURIBOR Loans, at least three Business Days’ prior to the date of such prepayment;

(D) all such voluntary partial prepayments shall, in the case of Base Rate Loans, be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000, and in the case of Eurocurrency Loans or EURIBOR Loans, be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000; and

(E) all such voluntary prepayments shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon; and

(ii) Swingline Loans; provided, that (A) all such voluntary prepayments shall require prior telephonic notice to the applicable Swingline Lender on or before 1:00 p.m. on the day of

such prepayment (such notice to be confirmed in writing within 24 hours thereafter), (B) all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000 and (C) no such prepayment of any Daily LIBOR Rate Loans may be made on any day other than the maturity date for such Loan unless payments required, if any, pursuant to Section 4.4 are made.

(b) On each date when the aggregate Revolving Exposure of all Revolving Lenders exceeds the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount (as it may be reduced from time to time pursuant to this Agreement), the Borrowers shall make a mandatory prepayment of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans (or both) and, if necessary, Cash Collateralize all Letter of Credit Outstandings, in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided, that no such mandatory prepayment will be required if the aggregate Revolving Exposure is in excess of up to 105% of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates.

(c) The U.S. Dollar Term Loans shall be payable in equal consecutive quarterly installments commencing on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December following the Closing Date, commencing with June 30, 2017, in an amount equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the stated principal amount of the U.S. Dollar Term Loans in effect on the Closing Date (as adjusted to reflect any prepayments thereof), with the remaining balance thereof payable on the U.S. Dollar Term Loan Maturity Date.

(d) The Euro Term Loans shall be payable in equal consecutive quarterly installments commencing on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December following the Closing Date, commencing with June 30, 2017, in an amount equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the stated principal amount of the Euro Term Loans in effect on the Closing Date (as adjusted to reflect any prepayments thereof), with the remaining balance thereof payable on the Euro Term Loan Maturity Date

(e) Concurrently with the receipt by the Company or any Subsidiary of any Net Debt Proceeds, the Company shall make, or cause to be made, a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Debt Proceeds, to be applied as set forth in Section 3.1.2.

(f) With respect to Net Disposition Proceeds and Net Casualty Proceeds, within ten Business Days following receipt by the Company or any Subsidiary of any Net Disposition Proceeds resulting from Dispositions made pursuant to Section 7.2.8(c) or any Net Casualty Proceeds in excess of a cumulative amount of $1,000,000 in any Fiscal Year, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a calculation of the amount of such proceeds and the Company shall make, or cause to be made, a mandatory prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 3.1.2 in an amount equal to the Applicable Net Proceeds Percentage of such Net Disposition Proceeds or Net Casualty Proceeds; provided, that upon written notice by the Company to the Administrative Agent not more than ten Business Days following receipt of any Net Disposition Proceeds resulting from a Disposition or series of related Dispositions or receipt of any Net Casualty Proceeds (in each case, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing), such proceeds may be retained by the Company and its Subsidiaries (which retained proceeds (i) shall be excluded from the prepayment requirements of this clause and (ii) may, in the Company’s discretion, be used to repay the outstanding Revolving Loans without a corresponding permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount pending reinvestment in accordance with the terms hereof) if:

(i) the Company informs the Administrative Agent in such notice of its good faith intention to apply (or cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to apply) such Net Disposition Proceeds or Net Casualty Proceeds to the acquisition of other assets or properties; and

(ii) within one year following the receipt of such Net Disposition Proceeds or such Net Casualty Proceeds, such proceeds are applied or committed to such application.

The amount of such retained Net Disposition Proceeds or retained Net Casualty Proceeds unused or uncommitted after such one year period shall be applied to prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 3.1.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the application of Net Disposition Proceeds or Net Casualty Proceeds by any Foreign Subsidiary to repay the Loans as required by this clause would result in a materially increased Tax liability for the Company (as reasonably determined by the Company in consultation with the Administrative Agent), such Foreign Subsidiary shall not be required to apply such Net Disposition Proceeds or such Net Casualty Proceeds to prepay the Loans.

(g) With respect to Excess Cash Flow for any Fiscal Year of the Company (commencing with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2017), no later than 90 days after the end of such Fiscal Year (the “Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Date”), the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a calculation of the amount of such Excess Cash Flow and the Company shall make, or cause to be made, a mandatory prepayment of the Loans to be applied as set forth in Section 3.1.2 in an amount equal to (i) the sum of the Applicable ECF Percentage multiplied by such Excess Cash Flow, if any, for such Fiscal Year, minus (ii) voluntary prepayments of the Loans made with internally generated cash during such Fiscal Year or thereafter prior to the Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Date (without duplication between Fiscal Years) (excluding repayments of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans, except to the extent the Revolving Loan Commitments are permanently reduced in connection with such repayments).

(h) Immediately upon any acceleration of the Stated Maturity Date of any Loans pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, the Borrowers shall repay all the Loans, unless, pursuant to Section 8.3, only a portion of all the Loans is so accelerated (in which case the portion so accelerated shall be so repaid).

Each prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to this Section shall be without premium or penalty, except as may be required by Section 4.4.

Section 3.1.2 Application. Amounts prepaid pursuant to Section 3.1.1 shall be applied as set forth in this Section.

(a) Subject to clause (b) set forth below, each prepayment or repayment of the principal of the Loans made pursuant to Section 3.1.1 (e), (f) and (g) shall be applied, to the extent of such prepayment or repayment, subject to the terms of Section 4.4, (i) first, pro rata to a mandatory prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans (with the amount of such prepayment of the Term Loans being applied in direct order of maturity in accordance with the amount of each remaining Term Loan amortization payment), (ii) second, once all Term Loans have been repaid in full, to the repayment of any outstanding Revolving Loans (without a corresponding reduction to the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount); and third, to reimburse the Issuers for the amount deemed to have been so paid or disbursed by such Issuers.

(b) Subject to Section 3.1.2(a), if the amount of any mandatory prepayment to be applied to outstanding Revolving Loans is in excess of the total amount of outstanding Revolving Loans at the time of such prepayment, such excess amount may be retained by the Company and the Subsidiaries to be used for general corporate purposes to the extent not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement. The Company shall give prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of any mandatory prepayment made in connection with clause (e) of Section 3.1.1 (including the date and an estimate of the aggregate amount of such mandatory prepayment) at least five Business Days prior thereto; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligations to make such mandatory prepayments.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender may reject all or a portion of its pro rata share of any prepayment or repayment of the principal of the Term Loans made pursuant to Section 3.1.1 (e), (f) and (g) by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company no later than 3:00 p.m. two (2) Business Days after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment. Such notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory prepayment of Term Loans to be rejected by such Lender. If a Lender fails to deliver such notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory repayment of Term Loans.

Section 3.1.3 Prepayment Premium. If (a) any amendment, supplement, amendment and restatement or other modification of this Agreement is effected prior to the date that is six months after the Closing Date or (b) all (but not less than all) of the principal outstanding amount of the U.S. Dollar Term Loans or the Euro Term Loans are voluntarily prepaid on or prior to the date that is six months after the Closing Date, in either case, in connection with any Repricing Transaction, the Company shall pay (x) the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the U.S. Dollar Term Loan Lenders or the Euro Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, a prepayment premium in an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the U.S. Dollar Term Loans or the Euro Term Loans, as applicable, then repaid, refinanced or amended (the “Prepayment Premium”).

SECTION 3.2 Interest Provisions. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall accrue and be payable in accordance with the terms set forth below.

Section 3.2.1 Rates. Subject to Section 2.3.2, pursuant to an appropriately delivered Borrowing Request or Continuation/Conversion Notice, (A) the Euro Term Loans shall accrue interest as a EURIBOR Loan, at a rate per annum, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, equal to the sum of the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin and (B) the Borrowers may elect that the Loans (other than the Euro Term Loans) comprising a Borrowing accrue interest at a rate per annum:

(a) on that portion maintained from time to time as a Base Rate Loan, equal to the sum of the Alternate Base Rate from time to time in effect plus the Applicable Margin; provided, that Swingline Loans made as Base Rate Loans shall always accrue interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the then effective Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans;

(b) on that portion maintained from time to time as a Daily LIBOR Rate Loan, equal to the sum of the Daily LIBOR Rate from time to time in effect plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Loans; and

(c) on that portion maintained as a Eurocurrency Loan, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, equal to the sum of the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate applicable to the Currency in which such Loans are denominated for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

All Eurocurrency Loans and EURIBOR Loans shall bear interest from and including the first day of the applicable Interest Period to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined as applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan.

Section 3.2.2 Post-Default Rates. After the date any Event of Default has occurred and for so long as such Event of Default is continuing, each Borrower, as applicable, shall pay (in the applicable Currency) automatically (in the case of an Event of Default under Section 8.1.1 or Section 8.1.9) or otherwise, at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, but only to the extent

permitted by law, interest (after as well as before judgment) on all outstanding Obligations (other than any Hedging Obligations or Cash Management Obligations) at a rate per annum equal to (a) in the case of principal on any Loan, the rate of interest that otherwise would be applicable to such Loan plus 2% per annum; and (b) in the case of overdue interest, fees, and such other monetary Obligations, the Alternate Base Rate from time to time in effect, plus the Applicable Margin for Loans accruing interest at the Alternate Base Rate, plus a margin of 2% per annum.

Section 3.2.3 Payment Dates. Interest accrued on each Loan shall be payable, without duplication:

(a) on the Stated Maturity Date therefor;

(b) on the date of any payment or prepayment, in whole or in part, of principal outstanding on such Loan on the principal amount so paid or prepaid;

(d) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans and EURIBOR Loans, on the last day of each applicable Interest Period (and, if such Interest Period shall exceed three months, on the date occurring on each three-month interval occurring after the first day of such Interest Period);

(e) with respect to any Base Rate Loans converted into Eurocurrency Loans, on a day when interest would not otherwise have been payable pursuant to clause (c) on the date of such conversion;

(f) with respect to any Daily LIBOR Rate Loan, at the end of each month; and

(g) on that portion of any Loans the Stated Maturity Date of which is accelerated pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, immediately upon such acceleration.

(h) Interest accrued on Loans or other monetary Obligations (other than Hedging Obligations and Cash Management Obligations) after the date such amount is due and payable (whether on the Stated Maturity Date, upon acceleration or otherwise) shall be payable upon demand.

SECTION 3.3 Fees. The Company agrees to pay the fees set forth below. All such fees shall be non-refundable.

Section 3.3.1 Commitment Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender (other than Defaulting Lenders), for the period (including any portion thereof when any of its Commitments are suspended by reason of the Borrowers’ inability to satisfy any condition of Article V) commencing on the Closing Date and continuing through the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, a commitment fee on such Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage of the sum of the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount (net of Letter of Credit Outstandings) in an amount set forth in the definition of Applicable Margin. The making of Swingline Loans shall not constitute usage of the Revolving Loan Commitment with respect to the calculation of commitment fees to be paid by the Company to the Lenders; provided, that only for purposes of calculating such commitment fee payable to a Revolving Lender that is also a Swingline Lender, the outstanding amount of Swingline Loans shall be deemed to be borrowed amounts under such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment. All commitment fees payable pursuant to this Section shall be calculated on a year comprised of 360 days and payable by the Company in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, commencing with the first Quarterly Payment Date following the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date.

Section 3.3.2 Letter of Credit Fees.

(a) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata account of the applicable Issuer and each Revolving Lender (other than Defaulting Lenders), a Letter of Credit fee in a per annum amount denominated in Dollars and equal to the then effective Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans maintained as Eurocurrency Loans, multiplied by the Stated Amount of each such Letter of Credit made in respect of the Revolving Loan Commitment, such fees being payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date following the date of issuance of each such Letter of Credit and on the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, in each case such fee being paid in the currency in which the applicable Letter of Credit was issued.

(b) The Borrowers agree to pay directly to each Issuer a fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by it (a “Fronting Fee”), computed for each day at a rate per annum equal to 0.125% of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer which is outstanding on such day, together with customary issuance and administration fees of the Issuer. Accrued Fronting Fees and such customary issuance and administration fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the Stated Maturity Date for Revolving Loans (to the extent such Letter of Credit remains outstanding).

All Letter of Credit fees payable pursuant to this Section shall be calculated on a year comprised of 360 days.

ARTICLE IV

CERTAIN EUROCURRENCY AND OTHER PROVISIONS

SECTION 4.1 Eurocurrency Lending Unlawful. If any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to make or continue any Loan as, or to convert any Loan into, a Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan, the obligations of such Lender to make, continue or convert any such Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan shall, upon such determination, forthwith be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and (a) all outstanding Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars payable to such Lender shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion, and (b) all Eurocurrency Loans or EURIBOR Loans denominated in any Alternate Currency shall automatically become due and payable at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by applicable law.

SECTION 4.2 Deposits Unavailable. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for an Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate or EURIBOR Rate for a Loan in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period; or (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Eurocurrency Rate or EURIBOR Rate for a Loan in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the

circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any interest election request that requests the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan, or continuation of any Eurocurrency Loan in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be ineffective, (B) if such Loan is requested in USD, such Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan and (C) if such Loan is requested in any Alternate Currency, then the Eurocurrency Rate for such Eurocurrency Loan, or the EURIBOR Rate for such EURIBOR Loan, as applicable, shall be at the COF Rate; provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose or use such Lender’s COF Rate; provided, further, that (x) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all the Lenders, then requests by the applicable Borrower for Eurocurrency Loans may be made to Lenders that are not affected thereby and (y) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one type of Loans, then the other type of Loans shall be permitted.

SECTION 4.3 Increased Eurocurrency Loan Costs, etc. If any Change in Law shall (a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate) or any Issuer or (b) impose on any Lender or any Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (except for such changes with respect to increased capital costs and Taxes which are governed by Section 4.5) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans or EURIBOR Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, and, in the case of either clause (a) or (b), the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuer or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuer or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, Issuer or other Recipient, the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender, Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. Each affected Secured Party shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in writing of the occurrence of any such event, stating the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Secured Party for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrowers directly to such Secured Party within five Business Days of its receipt of such notice, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

SECTION 4.4 Funding Losses. In the event any Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to make any Swingline Loan as a Daily LIBOR Rate Loan or to make or continue any portion of the principal amount of any Loan as, or to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Loan into, a Eurocurrency Loan) as a result of

(a) any (i) conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise), or (ii) repayment or prepayment of any Daily LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other than the applicable maturity date thereof, in each case, whether pursuant to Article III or otherwise;

(b) any Loans not being made as Daily LIBOR Rate, Eurocurrency Loans or EURIBOR Loans in accordance with the Borrowing Request therefor; or

(c) any Loans not being continued as, or converted into, Eurocurrency Loans in accordance with the Continuation/Conversion Notice therefor;

(d) then, upon the written notice of such Lender to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall, within five Business Days of its receipt thereof, pay directly to such Lender such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense. Such written notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

SECTION 4.5 Increased Capital Costs

(a) If any Change In Law affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by any Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party, and such Secured Party determines (in good faith but in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of the Commitments or the Credit Extensions made, or the Letters of Credit participated in, by such Secured Party is reduced to a level below that which such Secured Party or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then upon notice from time to time by such Secured Party to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall within five Business Days following receipt of such notice pay directly to such Secured Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Secured Party or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of such Secured Party as to any such additional amount or amounts shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers. In determining such amount, such Secured Party may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem applicable.

(b) Further, if any Change in Law subjects any Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party to any Tax with respect to this Agreement or any obligation or right hereunder, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to such Secured Party or any person controlling such Secured Party in respect thereof, (except for (i) Non-Excluded Taxes, (ii) Taxes which would be indemnifiable under Section 4.6 but for clauses (b) though (d) of the definition of Non-Excluded Taxes and (iii) Connection Income Taxes), the Company shall pay to such party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such party for such Tax.

SECTION 4.6 Taxes. The Company covenants and agrees as follows with respect to Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of an Obligor under each Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, unless required by applicable law. In the event that any Taxes are required by applicable law to be deducted or withheld from any payment required to be made by any Obligor to or on behalf of any Recipient under any Loan Document (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent), then:

(i) if such Taxes are Non-Excluded Taxes, the amount payable by the Borrowers shall be increased as may be necessary so that such payment is made, after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such increased amounts), in an amount equal to the sum the Recipient would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made; and

(ii) the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to withhold the full amount of such Taxes from such payment (as increased pursuant to clause (a)(i) of this Section) and shall pay such amount to the Governmental Authority imposing such Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay all Other Taxes imposed to the relevant Governmental Authority imposing such Other Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the payment of any Taxes or Other Taxes, and in any event within 45 days of any such payment being due, the Obligor shall furnish to the Administrative Agent an official receipt (or a certified copy thereof) evidencing the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes. The Administrative Agent shall make copies thereof available to any Lender upon request therefor.

(d) Each U.S. Borrower and U.S. Loan Party shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient with respect to a U.S. Borrower, and each U.S. Loan Party and Non-U.S. Loan Party shall severally indemnify each Recipient with respect to any Designated Borrower within 10 days after demand therefor, for any Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes payable or paid by such Recipient, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Obligors acknowledge that any payment made to the Administrative Agent or any Recipient or to any Governmental Authority in respect of the indemnification obligations of the Obligors provided in this clause (d) shall constitute a payment in respect of which the provisions of clause (a) and this clause shall apply.

(e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such 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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 4.6(e)(i) and (iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Non-U.S. Lender with respect to the Obligations of a U.S. Borrower, on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only for so long as such Non-U.S. Lender is legally entitled to do so), shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, either (i) two duly completed copies of either (A) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, claiming eligibility of the Non-U.S. Lender for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party or (B) IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY (together with any required attachments), or in any case an applicable successor form; or (ii) (A) a certificate to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (z) a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a

related person within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (referred to as an “Exemption Certificate”) and (B) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or applicable successor form.

(ii) Any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably 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 the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their 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 subparagraph (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Solely for purposes of this Section 4.6, the term “Lender” includes any Issuer and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

SECTION 4.7 Payments, Computations; Proceeds of Collateral, etc.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrowers pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Secured Parties entitled to receive such payment. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than 12:00 noon on the date due in same day or immediately available funds, in the applicable Currency, to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Borrowers. Funds received after that time shall, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Secured Party its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Secured Party. All interest (including interest on Eurocurrency Loans) and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days (or, in the case of interest on a Base Rate Loan, 365 days or, if appropriate, 366 days); provided, that to the extent the current market practice is to compute interest and/or fees in respect of any Alternate Currency or any

Loan denominated in any Alternate Currency in a manner other than as set forth above, all interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of such market practice, as certified to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent. Payments due on other than a Business Day shall (except as otherwise required by clause (c) of the definition of “Interest Period”) be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with that payment.

(b) All amounts received as a result of the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents (including from the proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon, all or any part of the collateral securing the Obligations, which proceeds shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent) or under applicable law shall be applied upon receipt by the Administrative Agent to the Obligations as follows:

(i) first ratably to the payment of all Obligations owing to the Agents, in their capacity as Agents (including the fees and expenses of counsel to the Agents),

(ii) second, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clause (b)(i), to the ratable payment of all interest (including interest accruing after the commencement of a proceeding in bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, whether or not permitted as a claim under such law) and fees owing under the Loan Documents, and all costs and expenses owing to the Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, until paid in full in cash,

(iii) third, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (b)(i) and (b)(ii), to the ratable payment of the principal amount of the Loans then outstanding, the aggregate Reimbursement Obligations then owing, the Cash Collateralization for contingent liabilities under Letter of Credit Outstandings, the Cash Management Obligations and the credit exposure owing to Secured Parties under Rate Protection Agreements,

(iv) fourth, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(iii), to the ratable payment of all other Obligations owing to the Secured Parties, and

(v) fifth, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(iv), and following the Termination Date, to each applicable Obligor or any other Person lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

For purposes of clause (b)(iii), the “credit exposure” at any time of any Secured Party with respect to a Rate Protection Agreement to which such Secured Party is a party shall be determined at such time in accordance with the customary methods of calculating credit exposure under similar arrangements by the counterparty to such arrangements, taking into account potential interest rate (or, if applicable, currency) movements and the respective termination provisions and notional principal amount and term of such Rate Protection Agreement.

SECTION 4.8 Sharing of Payments. Subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders, if any Secured Party shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Credit Extension or Reimbursement Obligation (other than pursuant to the terms of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 or 4.6) in excess of its pro rata share of payments obtained by all Secured Parties, such Secured Party shall purchase from the other Secured Parties such participations in Credit Extensions made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Secured Party to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably (to the extent such other Secured Parties were entitled to receive a portion of such payment or recovery) with each of them;

provided, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Secured Party, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Secured Party which has sold a participation to the purchasing Secured Party shall repay to the purchasing Secured Party the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Secured Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Secured Party’s required repayment to the purchasing Secured Party to (b) total amount so recovered from the purchasing Secured Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Secured Party in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrowers agree that any Secured Party purchasing a participation from another Secured Party pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 4.9) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Secured Party were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law any Secured Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Secured Party shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Secured Parties entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

SECTION 4.9 Setoff. Each Secured Party shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default described in Section 8.1.1 or clauses (a) through (d) of Section 8.1.9 or, with the consent of the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, have the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations (whether or not then due), and (as security for such Obligations) each Borrower hereby grants to each Secured Party a continuing security interest in, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of such Borrower then or thereafter maintained with such Secured Party; provided, that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.8. Each Secured Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such appropriation and application made by such Secured Party; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Secured Party under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under applicable law or otherwise) which such Secured Party may have.

SECTION 4.10 Mitigation Obligations; Removal of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 4.5(a), or if any Borrower is required to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.5(b), then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 4.5(a) or 4.5(b), as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) (i) fails to consent to an election, consent, amendment, waiver or other modification to this Agreement or other Loan Document that requires the consent of a greater percentage of the Lenders than the Required Lenders and such election, consent, amendment, waiver or other modification is otherwise consented to by the Required Lenders, (ii) makes a demand upon the Company for (or if the Company is otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6 (and the payment of such amounts are, and are likely to continue to be, more onerous in the reasonable judgment of the Company than with respect to the other Lenders), or gives notice pursuant to Section 4.1 requiring a conversion of such Affected Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans to

Base Rate Loans or suspending such Lender’s obligation to make Loans as, or to convert Loans into, Eurocurrency Loans, or (iii) becomes a Defaulting Lender, the Company may, within 30 days of such consent by the Required Lenders, such receipt by the Company of such demand or notice or such Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, give notice (a “Replacement Notice”) in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to cause such Affected Lender to sell all or any portion of its Loans, Commitments and/or Notes to an Eligible Assignee (a “Replacement Lender”) designated in such Replacement Notice; provided, that no Replacement Notice may be given by the Company if (A) such replacement conflicts with any applicable law or regulation, (B) any Event of Default (other than, in the case of the replacement of a Defaulting Lender, as a result of the failure of the Company to satisfy its cash collateralization obligations pursuant to Section 2.10(b)) shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement or (C) prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken any necessary action under Section 4.5 or 4.6 (if applicable) so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.5 or 4.6. If the Administrative Agent shall, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion and within 30 days of its receipt of such Replacement Notice, notify the Company and such Affected Lender in writing that the Replacement Lender is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (such consent not being required where the Replacement Lender is already a Lender), then such Affected Lender shall, subject to the payment of any amounts due pursuant to Section 4.4, assign, in accordance with Section 10.11, the portion of its Commitments, Loans, Notes (if any) and other rights and obligations under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents (including Reimbursement Obligations, if applicable) designated in the Replacement Notice to such Replacement Lender; provided, that (A) such assignment shall be without recourse, representation or warranty and shall be on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to such Affected Lender and such Replacement Lender, (B) the purchase price paid by such Replacement Lender shall be in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Loans designated in the Replacement Notice and/or its Revolving Loan Percentage of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, as applicable, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect thereof, plus all other amounts (including the amounts demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 4.3, 4.5 and 4.6), owing to such Affected Lender hereunder and (iii) the Company shall pay to the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent in connection with such assignment and assumption (including the processing fees described in Section 10.11). Upon the effective date of an assignment described above, the Replacement Lender shall become a “Lender” for all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any assignment agreement necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section.

ARTICLE IX

THE AGENTS

SECTION 9.1 Actions. Each Lender hereby appoints PNC Bank as its Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under and for purposes of each Loan Document. Each Lender authorizes each Agent to act on behalf of such Lender under each Loan Document and, in the absence of other written instructions from the Required Lenders received from time to time by each applicable Agent (with respect to which such Agent agrees that it will comply, except as otherwise provided in this Section or as otherwise advised by counsel in order to avoid contravention of applicable law), to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as may be incidental thereto (including the release of Liens on assets Disposed of in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents). Each Lender hereby indemnifies (which indemnity shall survive any termination of this Agreement) the Agents, pro rata according to such Lender’s proportionate Total Exposure Amount, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, an Agent in any way relating to or arising out of any Loan Document, (including attorneys’ fees), and as to which such Agent is not reimbursed by the Borrowers; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities,

obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses which are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final proceeding to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither Agent shall be required to take any action under any Loan Document, or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of any Loan Document, unless it is indemnified hereunder to its satisfaction. If any indemnity in favor of an Agent shall be or become, in such Agent’s determination, inadequate, such Agent may call for additional indemnification from the Lenders and cease to do the acts indemnified against hereunder until such additional indemnity is given.

SECTION 9.2 Funding Reliance, etc.

(a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender by 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day prior to a Borrowing that such Lender will not make available the amount which would constitute its Revolving Loan Percentage of such Borrowing on the date specified therefor, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to repay the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date the Administrative Agent made such amount available to the Borrowers to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to Loans comprising such Borrowing (in the case of the Borrowers) and (in the case of a Lender), at the Federal Funds Effective Rate (for the first two Business Days after which such amount has not been repaid), and thereafter at the interest rate applicable to Loans comprising such Borrowing.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing prior to the time at which any payment hereunder is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Secured Parties hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Secured Parties its share of the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Secured Parties severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Secured Party, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate (for the first two Business Days after which such amount has not been repaid), and thereafter at the interest rate applicable to the Loans which were repaid.

SECTION 9.3 Exculpation. No Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under any Loan Document, or in connection therewith, except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence, nor responsible for any recitals or warranties herein or therein, nor for the effectiveness, enforceability, validity or due execution of any Loan Document, nor for the creation, perfection or priority of any Liens purported to be created by any of the Loan Documents, or the validity, genuineness, enforceability, existence, value or sufficiency of any collateral security, nor to make any inquiry respecting the performance by any Obligor of its Obligations. Any such inquiry which may be made by an Agent shall not obligate it to make any further inquiry or to take any action. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters and upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or writing which such Agent believes to be genuine and to have been presented by a proper Person.

SECTION 9.4 Successor. Any of the Agents may resign as such at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the other Agents, the Borrowers and all Lenders. If an Agent at any time shall resign, the Required Lenders may, with the consent of the Company, so long as no Event of Default exists

(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint another Lender as a successor Agent which shall thereupon become the applicable Agent hereunder. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then such retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, with the consent of the Company (so long as no Event of Default exists), appoint a successor Agent, which shall be one of the Lenders or a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000; provided, that if such retiring Agent is unable to find a commercial banking institution which is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth in above, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall be entitled to receive from the retiring Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Agent may reasonably request, and shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as the an Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under the Loan Documents, and Section 10.3 and Section 10.4 shall continue to inure to its benefit.

SECTION 9.5 Loans by the Agents. The Agents shall have the same rights and powers with respect to (a) the Credit Extensions made by it or any of its Affiliates, and (b) the Notes held by it or any of its Affiliates as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not an Agent. PNC Bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrowers as if such Agent were not an Agent hereunder.

SECTION 9.6 Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently of each Agent and each other Lender, and based on such Lender’s review of the financial information of the Borrowers, the Loan Documents (the terms and provisions of which being reasonably satisfactory to such Lender) and such other documents, information and investigations as such Lender has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to extend its Commitments. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of each Agent and each other Lender, and based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.7 Copies, etc. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of each notice or request required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents (unless concurrently delivered to the Lenders by the Borrower). The Administrative Agent will distribute to each Lender each document or instrument received for its account and copies of all other communications received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers for distribution to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.8 Reliance by the Agents. The Agents shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, the

Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Secured Parties. For purposes of applying amounts in accordance with this Section, the Agents shall be entitled to rely upon any Secured Party that has entered into a Rate Protection Agreement with any Obligor for a determination (which such Secured Party agrees to provide or cause to be provided upon request of the Administrative Agent) of the outstanding Obligations owed to such Secured Party under any Rate Protection Agreement. Unless it has actual knowledge evidenced by way of written notice from any such Secured Party or the Company to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in acting in such capacity under the Loan Documents, shall be entitled to assume that no Rate Protection Agreements or Obligations in respect thereof are in existence or outstanding between any Secured Party and any Obligor.

SECTION 9.9 Defaults. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default unless such Agent has received a written notice from a Lender or the Company specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agents shall (subject to Section 10.1) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided, that unless and until the Agents shall have received such directions, the Agents may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Secured Parties except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Required Lenders or all Lenders.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Obligors or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Agents in accordance with the Loan Documents for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuer; provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the Collateral Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Collateral Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) each of the Issuer and the Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (d) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 4.9 (subject to Section 4.9) or (e) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Obligor under any bankruptcy or other debtor relief law; and provided further that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.3 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (c), (d) and (e) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 4.9, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

SECTION 9.10 Posting of Approved Electronic Communications.

(a) The Borrowers hereby agree that the Administrative Agent may make all information, documents and other materials that the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries are obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents or to the Lenders under Section 7.1.1,

including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials (collectively, “Communications”), available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on SyndTrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).

(b) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS IS MADE BY THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY OBLIGOR, 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 OBLIGOR’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL RULING BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

(c) 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 (excluding 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.

(d) 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 9.11 Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners and Syndication Agents. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners and the Syndication Agents, in their respective capacities as such, each in such capacity, shall have no duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document nor any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against such Person in such capacity.

SECTION 9.12 Withholding. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding Tax if in its reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under the Code or other applicable law. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding tax, backup withholding or information reporting requirements. If any payment has been made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding Tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent

100

has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the IRS or any other Governmental Authority, or the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties and interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

No failure or delay on the part of any Secured Party in exercising any power or right under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right.

Except as otherwise provided in clause (c) of Section 9.10, all notices and other communications provided under each Loan Document shall be in writing or by facsimile and addressed, delivered or transmitted, if to the Loan Parties, the Agents, a Lender or an Issuer, to the applicable Person at its address or facsimile number set forth on Schedule II hereto or set forth in the Lender Assignment Agreement, or at such other address or facsimile number as may be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties. Any notice, if mailed and properly addressed with postage prepaid or if properly addressed and sent by pre-paid courier service, shall be deemed given when received; any notice, if transmitted by facsimile, shall be deemed given when the confirmation of transmission thereof is received by the transmitter.

Any provision of any Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of such Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.7 Headings. The various headings of each Loan Document are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of such Loan Document or any provisions thereof.

SECTION 10.8 Execution in Counterparts, Effectiveness, etc. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement.

105

SECTION 10.9 Governing Law; Entire Agreement. EACH LOAN DOCUMENT (OTHER THAN THE LETTERS OF CREDIT, TO THE EXTENT SPECIFIED BELOW AND EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN A LOAN DOCUMENT) WILL EACH BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING FOR SUCH PURPOSE SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK) AND EACH SUCH LOAN DOCUMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES THEREUNDER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIMS SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT LAW ARISING OUT OF THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND ANY DETERMINATIONS WITH RESPECT TO POST-JUDGMENT INTEREST) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT, OR IF NO LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, WITH RESPECT TO ANY STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT, THE INTERNATIONAL STANDBY PRACTICES (ISP98—INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE PUBLICATION NUMBER 590 (THE “ISP RULES”) AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT GOVERNED BY THE ISP RULES OR UCP RULES, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The Loan Documents and the Engagement Letter constitute the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter thereof and supersede any prior agreements, written or oral, with respect thereto.

SECTION 10.10 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, that the Borrowers may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of all Lenders (and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void).

SECTION 10.11 Assignments and Participations; Notes. Each Lender may assign, or sell participations in, its Loans, Letters of Credit and Commitments to one or more other Persons in accordance with the terms set forth below.

(a) Any Lender may, with the consent of (i) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and which consent shall be deemed to have been given if the Company does not respond to any written request for such consent within five (5) business days; provided, that, in each case, such consent shall not be required for assignments of (A) all or any portion of a Term Loan to an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund, (B) all or any portion of any Revolving Loan Commitments to a Revolving Lender, an Affiliate of a Revolving Lender or an Approved Fund or (C) from an Agent to its Affiliates, and (iii) each Issuer and each Swingline Lender in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Loan Commitment (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments or Loans at the time owing to it); provided, that:

(i) the aggregate amount of the Commitments (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder), or principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Lender Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than (A) for assignment of Term Loans, $1,000,000 and (B) for assignment of Revolving

106

Loans or Revolving Loan Commitments, $5,000,000, unless, in each case, (w) the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (x) such assignment is an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans at the time owing to it, (y) such assignment is an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender or (z) such assignment is to one or more Eligible Assignees managed by an Affiliate of such Eligible Assignee(s) and the aggregate amount of such assignments is not less than (1) for Term Loans, $1,000,000, and (2) for Revolving Loans, $5,000,000;

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans, and/or the Commitments assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate tranches on a non-pro rata basis; and

(iii) the parties to each assignment shall (A) electronically execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (an “ESS”) or (B) with the consent of the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement, together with, in either case, a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); provided, that only one processing and recordation fee of $3,500 shall be required to be paid in connection with the simultaneous assignment by a Lender to multiple Approved Funds of such Lender, and if the Eligible Assignee is not already a Lender, administrative details information with respect to such Eligible Assignee and applicable tax forms required pursuant to Section 4.6(e).

(b) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Lender Assignment Agreement, (i) the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, subject to Section 10.5, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Lender Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of any provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement). If the consent of the Company to an assignment or to an Eligible Assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified in this Section), the Company shall be deemed to have given its consent five Business Days after the date notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent or an ESS) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Company prior to such fifth day.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall record each assignment made in accordance with this Section in the Register pursuant to clause (a) of Section 2.8. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Collateral Agent, the Issuer and any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans or Commitments), at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, any Person, sell participations to one or more Persons (other than Ineligible Assignees) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s

107

rights or obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments or the Loans owing to it); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrowers, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iv) such Lender shall maintain a register as described in Section 10.11(e) below. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the rights and remedies of a Lender under the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, take any action of the type described in clauses (b) and (c) or clause (j) of Section 10.1 with respect to Obligations participated in by that Participant. Subject to clause (e), the Borrowers agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 7.1.1, 10.3 and 10.4 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 4.6(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.6(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (c). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.9 as though it were a Lender, but only if such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.8 as though it were a Lender.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 10.3 or 10.4 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive (or would be entitled to receive if a change in applicable law or any interpretation thereof occurs and the Lender had not sold the participation) with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.6 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with the requirements set forth in Section 4.6 as though it were a Lender by providing the forms in Section 4.6(e) to the participating Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it records the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts of and stated interest on each Participant’s participation interest with respect to a Loan (each, a “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Unless otherwise required by any applicable law, rules or regulations, any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the relevant 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. Any Lender that sells a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a Participant under this Section shall indemnify and hold harmless the Borrowers and the Agents from and against any taxes, penalties, interest or other costs or losses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred or payable by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as a result of the failure of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations to deduct or withhold any Taxes from any payments made pursuant to this Agreement to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, which Taxes would not have been incurred or payable if such Participant had been a Non-U.S. Lender that was entitled to deliver to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and did in fact so deliver to the participating Lender, a duly completed and valid Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI (or applicable successor form) entitling such Participant to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal taxes.

108

(f) 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; 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.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (a “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Company, the option to provide to the Company all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Company pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that (x) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loans and (y) 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 clause, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Company or 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 (consented to by the Company, and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) 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. This Section may not be amended without the written consent of the SPC. The Company acknowledges and agrees, subject to the next sentence, that, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, each SPC, for purposes of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.8, 4.9, 10.3 and 10.4 shall be considered a Lender. The Borrowers shall not be required to pay any amount under Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, and 10.4 that is greater than the amount which it would have been required to pay had no grant been made by a Granting Lender to an SPC.

SECTION 10.12 Other Transactions. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Administrative Agent, any Issuer or any other Lender from engaging in any transaction, in addition to those contemplated by the Loan Documents, with any Borrower or any of its Affiliates in which such Borrower or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.

SECTION 10.13 Forum Selection and Consent to Jurisdiction. ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, THE LENDERS, ANY ISSUER OR THE BORROWERS IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH MAY BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE

109

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK; PROVIDED, THAT ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT THE AGENTS’ OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PERSON PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONAL, THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS. THE BORROWERS IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF NEW YORK AT THE ADDRESS FOR NOTICES SPECIFIED IN SECTION 10.2. THE BORROWERS HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE BORROWERS HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, THE BORROWERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

SECTION 10.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, EACH LENDER, EACH ISSUER AND EACH BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, EACH LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, SUCH LENDER, SUCH ISSUER OR EACH BORROWER IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THE BORROWERS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER PROVISION OF EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY) AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, EACH LENDER AND EACH ISSUER ENTERING INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

SECTION 10.15 Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to Section 326 of the Patriot Act and/or the Administrative Agent (each of the foregoing acting for themselves and not acting on behalf of any of the Lenders) hereby notify the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act.

SECTION 10.16 Judgment Currency. The Obligations of each Obligor in respect of any sum due to any Secured Party under or in respect of any Loan Document shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum was originally denominated (the “Original Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Secured Party or any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, such Secured Party, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchases the Original Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally

110

due to such Secured Party, the Borrowers agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender, such Secured Party, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to such Secured Party, as the case may be, such Secured Party, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrowers.

SECTION 10.17 Confidentiality.

(a) Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this Section, each Lender agrees that it will follow its customary procedures in an effort not to disclose without the prior consent of the Company (other than to its employees, auditors, advisors or counsel, or to another Lender if the Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information; provided, that such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section to the same extent as such Lender; provided further no such Person shall be a Disqualified Lender) any confidential information which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, that any Lender may disclose any such information (i) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this clause by the respective Lender or any other Person to whom such Lender has provided such information as permitted by this Section, (ii) as may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state, provincial or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (iii) as may be required or appropriate in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender, (v) to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, (vi) to any pledgee referred to in clause (f) of Section 10.11 or any prospective or actual transferee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or any interest therein by such Lender; provided, that such prospective transferee agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in this Section, (vii) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor, in each case other than Disqualified Lenders (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section) and (viii) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender. For purposes of this Section 10.17, all information furnished to the Lenders by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed public information unless prior to or concurrently with the delivery of such information, the Lenders have been notified otherwise by the Company or such Affiliate.

(b) The Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that each Lender may share with any of its Affiliates, and such Affiliates may share with such Lender, any information related to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section to the same extent as such Lender.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this Section, any party to this Agreement (and each Affiliate, director, officer, employee, agent or representative of the foregoing or such Affiliate) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated herein and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such party relating to such tax treatment or tax structure. The foregoing language is not intended to waive any confidentiality obligations otherwise applicable under this Agreement except with respect to the information and materials specifically referenced in the preceding sentence. This authorization does not extend to disclosure of any other information, including (a) the identity of participants or potential participants in the transactions contemplated herein, (b) the existence or status of

111

any negotiations, or (c) any financial, business, legal or personal information of or regarding a party or its affiliates, or of or regarding any participants or potential participants in the transactions contemplated herein (or any of their respective affiliates), in each case to the extent such other information is not related to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated herein.

SECTION 10.18 No Fiduciary Duty. The relationship among the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Issuer and the Lenders, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor, and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Issuer and the Lenders have no fiduciary or other special relationship with the Company and its Subsidiaries, and no term or provision of any Loan Document, no course of dealing, no written or oral communication, or other action, shall be construed so as to deem such relationship to be other than that of debtor and creditor.

SECTION 10.19 Counsel Representation. EACH BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY COMPETENT COUNSEL IN THE NEGOTIATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT ANY RULE OR CONSTRUCTION OF LAW ENABLING SUCH BORROWER TO ASSERT THAT ANY AMBIGUITIES OR INCONSISTENCIES IN THE DRAFTING OR PREPARATION OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHOULD DIMINISH ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE OTHER SECURED PARTIES ARE HEREBY WAIVED BY SUCH BORROWER.

SECTION 10.20 Waiver of Notice Period. Each Lender that is a party to the Existing Credit Agreement hereby waives the notice requirement for termination of the commitments as set forth in Section 2.2 of the Existing Credit Agreement and each such Lender and the Company agrees that upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the Existing Credit Agreement and all commitments hereunder shall be deemed terminated.

SECTION 10.21 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

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

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

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

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

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

112

SECTION 10.22 Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable requirements of Law, shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Lenders and the Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Borrower.

SECTION 10.23 Illegality. If, in any applicable jurisdiction, but only with respect to such jurisdiction the Administrative Agent, any Issuer or any Lender (or affiliate or branch thereof, collectively, “Designated Lenders”) determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Administrative Agent, any Issuer or any Lender or its applicable Designated Lender to (i) perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (ii) to fund or maintain its participation in any Loan or (iii) issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any Credit Extension to any Designated Borrower who is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States, a State thereof or the District of Columbia such Person shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, then, upon the Administrative Agent notifying the Company, and until such notice by such Person is revoked, any obligation of such Person to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Credit Extension shall be suspended, and to the extent required by applicable Law, cancelled, in each case solely with respect to such jurisdiction at issue. Upon receipt of such notice, the Loan Parties shall, (A) repay that Person’s participation in the Loans or other applicable Obligations on the last day of the Interest Period for each Loan or other Obligation occurring after the Administrative Agent has notified the Company or, if earlier, the date specified by such Person in the notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by applicable Law) and (B) take all reasonable actions requested by such Person to mitigate or avoid such illegality. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall relieve or release any Designated Lender from fulfilling its funding or participation obligations with respect to any other jurisdiction not otherwise affected by such illegality.

ITEM 6.12. Environmental Warranties.

1.	Federal and State Superfund Sites: The Company has been and is a party in several current and closed state and federal “superfund” sites.

BASF Site, Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In 1995, the Company began implementation of a groundwater corrective action plan (“CAP”) in accordance with an agreement with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Protection (“LDEQ”). The most recent CAP approved by LDEQ authorized the Company to reduce the groundwater contamination through ozone injection. The Company is in the process of implementing this remediation strategy, and it is evaluating potential claims it may have against the current owner of the site, BASF.

Ferro 4150 Site, Cleveland, Ohio– RCRA 2020 Consent Order. On September 30, 2011, the USEPA and the Company entered into an administrative order on consent (“AOC”) to address various solid waste management units and areas of concern at the site. The Company has completed significant investigatory work at the site and has submitted the Environmental Indicators forms and report as required by the AOC. The Company is currently waiting on the USEPA’s review to confirm that no significant remedial work will be required.

Ferro Walton Hills Facility – RCRA 2020 Consent Order. On September 30, 2011, the USEPA and the Company entered into an AOC to address areas of concern at the site. The Company submitted its corrective measures proposal to the USEPA in June 2014. The Company is currently waiting on the USEPA to confirm that no significant remedial work will be required.

Former Keil Chemical Site, Hammond, Indiana. The Company has undertaken various investigation and remediation activities at the site pursuant to a 1993 Agreed Order with the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (“IDEM”). A revised remediation work plan, which details the installation of a sub-slab depressurization system, was submitted to IDEM on October 19, 2016. The Company is currently waiting on IDEM’s review and approval of the final remediation work plan.

Sao Bernardo, Brazil. The Company closed the site but retained ownership of a portion of the property that became the subject of an investigation/remediation proceeding with the State of Sao Paolo environmental authority. Significant investigation work has been completed by the Company. The Company has received approval of its conceptual remediation plan for the site and is in the process of preparing the final remediation plan for approval. The Company is in the process of trying to sell the site and transfer the environmental liability to a third party looking to expand its existing operations.

Footscray, Australia. The Company owns a site located at 469 Somerville Road, West Footscray, Victoria. The site is leased to Sun Ace Australia who purchased the business from the Company in approximately 2002. While there are no active environmental projects on the site, it should be noted this site is known to be contaminated with heavy metals. At some point in the future the Company may be required to clean it up.

Geelong, Australia. The site, which is owned by the Company, is contaminated with manufactured gas plant (“MGP”)-related wastes and heavy metals from historic operations from the Geelong Gas Company and Lindex Chemicals, which was acquired by the Company in 1965. In 1993, the Company investigated the site’s soil contamination under a directive from EPA Victoria, and the site was capped in 1993. In 2008, EPA Victoria required the Company to investigate and monitor the groundwater contamination at the site. This work is ongoing, and the Company has provided a Remediation Feasibility Study to EPA Victoria’s auditor for review and approval. The Company is also in the process of evaluating potential claims it may have against the now government-owned Geelong Gas Company, which is the sole cause of the MGP-related contamination at the site.

ISRA Site, South Plainfield, New Jersey. On October 31, 2013, the Company sold its Metal Powders business, including the South Plainfield manufacturing location, to Ames Advanced Materials. Under the New Jersey Industrial Sites Recovery Act (“ISRA”), the Company agreed to perform an assessment of the environmental condition of the property being sold and, based on that assessment, potentially take action to address environmental contamination above state remediation standards. The soil at the site is impacted by silver and petroleum hydrocarbons, and the sediments in the pond and stream leaving the facility contain metals. Based upon investigation efforts to date, it appears that the source of the groundwater contamination at the site is from a third-party site, and the environmental conditions in the soil can be addressed through a deed restriction. Investigation and remediation efforts related to the groundwater and the stream sediments are ongoing.

10.

Niagara Falls, New York. The Company is the former owner of a site located in Niagara Falls, New York. Prior to the Company’s ownership, a prior owner, Cookson, buried some silica fume, which contains technologically enhanced naturally occurring radioactive material, on the site. This area has historically been of interest to federal and state regulators, but the Company has not received any notice of potential liability related to the site.

and the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent, the other Secured Parties and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under applicable law after giving full effect to the liability under this Guaranty and its related contribution rights but before taking into account any liabilities of such Guarantor under any other guarantee of such Guarantor other than any other guarantee of any obligations that are secured on a pari passu basis with the Obligations.

SECTION 2.2. Reinstatement, etc. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment (in whole or in part) of any of the Obligations is invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Secured Party, including upon the occurrence of any Default set forth in Section 8.1.9 of the Credit Agreement or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

SECTION 2.3.

(g) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Obligor, any surety or any guarantor (other than a defense of payment or performance).

SECTION 2.4. Setoff. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent and each Lender, without the requirement that any notice be given to such Guarantor (such notice being expressly waived by each Guarantor), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default described in Section 8.1.1 or Section 8.1.9 of the Credit Agreement or, with the consent of the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, to setoff and appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations (whether or not then due, and whether or not any Secured Party has made any demand for payment of the Obligations), and such Guarantor hereby grants to each Secured Party a security interest in, any and all balances, claims, credits, deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), accounts or money of such Guarantor then or thereafter maintained with such Secured Party; provided that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.8 of the Credit Agreement.

Waiver, etc. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, for the benefit of the Secured Parties: (a) any right to require any Secured Party, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any such other guarantor or any other Person, or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of any Borrower or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Obligations; (c) any defense based

upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Secured Party’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Obligations, except behavior which amounts to gross negligence or willful misconduct; (e) any defense based upon (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against any Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor) or entity or any collateral securing the Obligations, as the case may be; (g) any defense based upon (i) any change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Borrower or any other Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries and any corresponding restructuring of the Obligations, (ii) any duty or any failure of any Secured Party to disclose to any Loan Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to such Secured Party; (h) any right to revoke this Agreement and (i) any other defense whatsoever which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Obligations or which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower or any other Guarantor for the Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Article II or of any security interest granted by any Guarantor, whether in a Bankruptcy Proceeding or in any other instance, in each case, other than a defense of payment or performance.

SECTION 2.6. Rights of Reimbursement and Contribution. In case any payment is made on account of the Obligations by any Guarantor or is received or collected on account of the Obligations from any Guarantor or its property, if such payment is made by a Guarantor (including the Company) or from its property in respect of the Obligations of another Guarantor, such Guarantor shall be entitled, subject to and upon (but not before) the Termination Date, (A) to demand and enforce reimbursement for the full amount of such payment from such other Guarantor, and (B) to demand and enforce contribution in respect of such payment from each other Guarantor which has not paid its fair share of such payment, as necessary to ensure that (after giving effect to any enforcement of reimbursement rights provided hereby) each Guarantor pays its fair share of the unreimbursed portion of such payment. For this purpose, the fair share of each Guarantor as to any unreimbursed payment shall be determined based on an equitable apportionment of such unreimbursed payment among all Guarantors (other than the Guarantor whose primary obligations were so guaranteed by the other Guarantors) based on the relative value of their assets and any other equitable considerations deemed appropriate by the court. For purposes of the foregoing, all guarantees of such Guarantor other than the Guaranty and any other guarantee of the Obligations will be deemed to be enforceable and payable after the Guaranty and any other guarantee of the Obligations.

SECTION 2.7. Postponement of Subrogation, etc. Each Guarantor agrees that it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under any Loan Document to which it is a party, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement

from any Obligor, in respect of any payment made under any Loan Document or otherwise, until following the Termination Date. Any amount paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the Termination Date shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid and turned over to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly endorsed in favor of the Collateral Agent, if required), to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with Section 2.8; provided that if any Guarantor has made payment to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Obligations and the Termination Date has occurred, then at such Guarantor’s request, the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) will, at the expense of such Guarantor, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty) necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at the Collateral Agent’s option, all payments under this Guaranty shall be made in the United States.

(a) such Grantor will not (i) do or fail to perform any act whereby any of the Patent Collateral may lapse or become abandoned or dedicated to the public or unenforceable, (ii) permit any of its licensees to (A) fail to continue to use any of the Trademark Collateral in order to maintain all of the Trademark Collateral in full force free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, (B) fail to maintain as in the past the quality of products and services offered under all of the Trademark Collateral, (C) fail to employ all of the Trademark Collateral registered with any federal or state or foreign authority with an appropriate notice of such registration, (D) adopt or use any other Trademark which is confusingly similar or a colorable imitation of any of the Trademark Collateral, (E) use any of the Trademark Collateral registered with any federal, state or foreign authority except for the uses for which registration or application for registration of all of the Trademark Collateral has been made or (F) do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of the Trademark Collateral may lapse or become invalid or unenforceable, or (iii) do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of the Copyright Collateral or any of the Trade Secrets Collateral may lapse or become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public domain except upon expiration of the end of an unrenewable term of a registration thereof, unless, in the case of any of the foregoing requirements in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), such Grantor shall either (x) reasonably and in good faith determine that any of such Intellectual Property Collateral is of negligible economic value to such Grantor, or (y) the loss of the Intellectual Property Collateral would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the business;

(b) such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent if it knows, or has reason to know, that any application or registration relating to any material item of the Intellectual Property Collateral may become abandoned or dedicated to the public or placed in the public domain or invalid or unenforceable, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any foreign counterpart thereof or any court) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral, its right to register the same or to keep and maintain and enforce the same;

(c) in the event that a Grantor or any of its agents, employees, designees or licensees files an application for the registration of any Intellectual Property Collateral with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, it will promptly so inform the Collateral Agent, and upon request of the Collateral Agent (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement), execute and deliver all agreements, instruments and documents as the Collateral Agent may request to evidence the Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral;

(d) such Grantor will take all necessary steps, including in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement) any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue any application (and to obtain the relevant registration) filed with respect to, and to maintain any registration of, the Intellectual Property Collateral, including the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings and the payment of fees and taxes (except to the extent that dedication, abandonment or invalidation is permitted under the foregoing clause (a) or (b)); and

(e) such Grantor will, upon the request of the Collateral Agent at any time, execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (as applicable) a Patent Security Agreement, Trademark Security Agreement and/or Copyright Security Agreement, as the case may be, in the forms of Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C hereto following its obtaining an interest in any such Intellectual Property (or following the filing of a statement of use or an amendment to allege use with respect to an intent-to-use Trademark application), and shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent any other document required to acknowledge or register or perfect the Collateral Agent’s interest in any part of such item of Intellectual Property Collateral unless such Grantor shall determine in good faith (with the consent of the Collateral Agent) that any Intellectual Property Collateral is of negligible economic value to such Grantor.

Section 4.6 Letter-of-Credit Rights.

(a) Each Grantor, by granting a security interest in its Letter-of-Credit Rights (other than such as is collateral for or issued subject to or in connection with the Borrowers’ Permitted Receivables Program) to the Collateral Agent, intends to (and hereby does) collaterally assign to the Collateral Agent its rights (including its contingent rights) to the Proceeds of all Letter-of-Credit Rights of which it is or hereafter becomes a beneficiary or assignee. Such Grantor will promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Issuer of each Letter of Credit in excess of $200,000 and each nominated person (if any) with respect thereto to consent to such assignment of the Proceeds thereof in a consent agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and deliver written evidence of such consent to the Collateral Agent.

(b) Each Grantor covenants and agrees that, until the payment in full of the Obligations and termination of all Commitments, with respect to any Letter-of-Credit Rights hereafter arising, it shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a supplement hereto in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, together with all supplements to schedules thereto (including with respect to Item H of Schedule II attached to this Agreement) identifying such new Letter-of-Credit Rights with a value in excess of $200,000, within thirty (30) days of such new Letter-of-Credit Right (or such later date as agreed to by the Collateral Agent).

(c) Upon the occurrence of a Specified Default, such Grantor will, promptly upon request by the Collateral Agent, (i) notify (and such Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to notify) the Issuer and each nominated person with respect to each of the Letters of Credit that the Proceeds thereof have been assigned to the Collateral Agent hereunder and any payments due or to become due in respect thereof are to be made directly to the Collateral Agent and (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary Letter of Credit.

Section 4.7 Commercial Tort Claims. Each Grantor covenants and agrees that, until the payment in full of the Obligations and termination of all Commitments, with respect to any Commercial Tort Claim hereafter arising, it shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a supplement hereto in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, together with all supplements to schedules thereto (including with respect to Item I of Schedule II attached to this Agreement) identifying such new Commercial Tort Claims with a value in excess of $1,000,000, within thirty (30) days of such new Commercial Tort Claim (or such later date as agreed to by the Collateral Agent).

Section 4.8 Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. If any Grantor at any time holds or acquires an interest in any electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record,” as that term is defined in Section 201 of the U.S. Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the U.S. Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, with a value in excess of $1,000,000, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and, at the request of the Collateral Agent, shall take such action as the Collateral Agent may request to vest in the Collateral Agent control under Section 9-105 of the U.C.C. of such electronic chattel paper or control under Section 201 of the

Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The Collateral Agent agrees with such Grantor that the Collateral Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Collateral Agent’s loss of control, for the Grantor to make alterations to the electronic chattel paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the U.C.C. or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the U.S. Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the U.S. Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Grantor with respect to such electronic chattel paper or transferable record.

Section 4.9 Further Assurances, etc. Each Grantor agrees that, from time to time at its own expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or that the Collateral Agent may request, in order to perfect, preserve and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such Grantor will

(a) from time to time upon the request of the Collateral Agent, promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent such stock powers, instruments and similar documents, satisfactory in form and substance to the Collateral Agent, with respect to such Collateral as the Collateral Agent may request and will, from time to time upon the request of the Collateral Agent, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Specified Default, promptly transfer any securities constituting Collateral into the name of any nominee designated by the Collateral Agent; if any Collateral shall be evidenced by an Instrument, negotiable Document, Promissory Note or tangible Chattel Paper, deliver and pledge to the Collateral Agent hereunder such Instrument, negotiable Document, Promissory Note or tangible Chattel Paper duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent;

(b) file (and hereby authorize the Collateral Agent to file) such Filing Statements or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices (including any assignment of claim form under or pursuant to the federal assignment of claims statute, 31 U.S.C. § 3726, any successor or amended version thereof or any regulation promulgated under or pursuant to any version thereof), as may be necessary or that the Collateral Agent may request in order to perfect and preserve the security interests and other rights granted or purported to be granted to the Collateral Agent hereby;

(c) deliver to the Collateral Agent and at all times keep pledged to the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto, on a first-priority, perfected basis, at the request of the Collateral Agent, all Investment Property constituting Collateral, all Distributions with respect thereto, and all interest and principal with respect to Promissory Notes, and all Proceeds and rights from time to time received by or distributable to such Grantor in respect of any of the foregoing Collateral;

(d) not take or omit to take any action the taking or the omission of which would result in any impairment or alteration of any obligation of the maker of any Payment Intangible or other Instrument constituting Collateral, except as provided in Section 4.4;

(e) not create any tangible Chattel Paper without placing a legend on such tangible Chattel Paper acceptable to the Collateral Agent indicating that the Collateral Agent has a security interest in such Chattel Paper;

(f) furnish to the Collateral Agent, from time to time at the Collateral Agent’s request, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Collateral Agent may request, all in reasonable detail; and

(g) do all things requested by the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Security Agreement in order to enable the Collateral Agent to have and maintain control over the Collateral consisting of Investment Property, Deposit Accounts, Letter-of-Credit-Rights and Electronic Chattel Paper.

With respect to the foregoing and the grant of the security interest hereunder, each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any UCC financing statement covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a UCC financing statement where permitted by law. Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file financing statements describing as the collateral covered thereby “all of the debtor’s personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the Collateral described in this Security Agreement.

Section 4.10 Deposit Accounts. Without limiting the requirements of Section 7.1.10 of the Credit Agreement and Section 4.1.2 above, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Specified Default, at the request of the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders, such Grantor will maintain all of its Deposit Accounts only with the Collateral Agent or with any depositary institution that has entered into a Control Agreement in favor of the Collateral Agent.

ARTICLE V

THE COLLATERAL AGENT

Section 5.1 Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Specified Default, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or reasonably advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement, including:

(a) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

(b) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other Instruments, Documents and Chattel Paper, in connection with clause (a) above;

(c) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or purchase any insurance called for by the terms of the Loan Documents and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

(d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral; and

(e) to perform the affirmative obligations of such Grantor hereunder.

Each Grantor hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees that the power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

Section 5.2 Collateral Agent May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor pursuant to Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 5.3 Collateral Agent Has No Duty. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest (on behalf of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to exercise any such powers. Except for reasonable care of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or responsibility for

(a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Investment Property, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or

(b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.

Section 5.4 Reasonable Care. The Collateral Agent is required to exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral in its possession; provided that the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral, if it takes such action for that purpose as each Grantor reasonably requests in writing at times other

than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Specified Default, but failure of the Collateral Agent to comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care.

Section 5.5 Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Security Agreement or under any other Security Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. All of the rights, benefits, and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of this Section 5.5 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to any of the Affiliates of the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agents, and shall apply to their respective activities as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Security Documents. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each sub-agent appointed by the Collateral Agent or Affiliate of the Collateral Agent or Affiliate of any such sub-agent shall be a third party beneficiary under this Security Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights and benefits of a third party beneficiary, including an independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against any or all of the Credit Parties and the Secured Parties, and such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent or Affiliate acting in such capacity.

Section 5.6 Qualified Counterparties; Cash Management Banks. No Qualified Counterparty or Cash Management Bank that obtains the benefits of the Security Documents or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions of the Credit Agreement or of the Security Documents, shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action under any 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 of this Security Agreement to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Rate Protection Agreements and Cash Management Obligations unless the Collateral Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Collateral Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Qualified Counterparty.

ARTICLE VI

REMEDIES

Section 6.1 Certain Remedies. If any Specified Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, all the rights and remedies of a Secured Party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may

(i) take possession of any Collateral not already in its possession without demand and without legal process;

(ii) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties,

(iii) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof without demand and without legal process;

(iv) without notice except as specified below, lease, license, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ prior notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

(b) Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by the Collateral Agent against, all or any part of the Obligations as set forth in Section 4.7 of the Credit Agreement. Any Proceeds not applied shall be held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral.

(i) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee, with or without disclosing that such Collateral is subject to the Lien hereunder,

(ii) notify the parties obligated on any of the Collateral to make payment to the Collateral Agent of any amount due or to become due thereunder,

(iii) withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal, of all funds with respect to the Collateral Account;

(iv) enforce collection of any of the Collateral by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any obligations of any nature of any party with respect thereto,

(v) endorse any checks, drafts, or other writings in any Grantor’s name to allow collection of the Collateral,

(vi) take control of any Proceeds of the Collateral, and

(vii) execute (in the name, place and stead of any Grantor) endorsements, assignments, stock powers and other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to all or any of the Collateral.

(d) For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies hereunder at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor), subject, in the case of Trademarks, to sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Grantor to avoid the risk of invalidation of such Trademarks, to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired, developed or created by such Grantor, wherever the same may be located. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof.

Section 6.2 Securities Laws. If the Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Collateral that are Capital Securities pursuant to Section 6.1, each Grantor agrees that, upon request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor will, at its own expense:

(a) execute and deliver, and cause (or, with respect to any issuer which is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) each issuer of the Collateral contemplated to be sold and the directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be necessary or, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, reasonably advisable to register such Collateral under the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as from time to time amended (the “Securities Act”), and cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for such period as prospectuses are required by law to be furnished, and to make all amendments and supplements thereto and to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, are necessary or reasonably advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of

the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto, or use its commercially reasonable efforts to exempt the Collateral under the state securities or “Blue Sky” laws and to obtain all necessary governmental approvals for the sale of the Collateral, as requested by the Collateral Agent;

(b) if necessary in order to effectuate such a registration or exemption, cause (or, with respect to any issuer that is not a Subsidiary of such Grantor, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause) each such issuer to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; and

(c) do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale of the Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law.

(d) The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Capital Securities for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

(e) Each Grantor acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of damages that would be suffered by the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties by reason of the failure by such Grantor to perform any of the covenants contained in this Section and consequently agrees that, if such Grantor shall fail to perform any of such covenants, it shall pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the value (as determined by the Collateral Agent) of such Collateral on the date the Collateral Agent shall demand compliance with this Section.

Section 6.3 Compliance with Restrictions. Each Grantor agrees that in any sale of any of the Collateral whenever a Specified Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of any right(s) of any third Person or applicable law (including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Collateral), or in order to obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any third Person or any Governmental Authority or official, and such Grantor further agrees that such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Collateral Agent be liable nor accountable to such Grantor for any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Collateral is sold in compliance with any such limitation or restriction.

Section 6.4 Protection of Collateral. The Collateral Agent may from time to time, at its option, perform any act which any Grantor fails to perform after being

requested in writing so to perform (it being understood that no such request need be given after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Specified Default) and the Collateral Agent may from time to time take any other action which the Collateral Agent deems necessary for the maintenance, preservation or protection of any of the Collateral or of its security interest therein.

ARTICLE VII

Section 7.2 Binding on Successors, Transferees and Assigns; Assignment. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date has occurred, shall be binding upon the Grantors and their successors, transferees and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each Secured Party and its successors, transferees and assigns; provided that no Grantor may (unless otherwise permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement or this Security Agreement) assign any of its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all Lenders (and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void).

Section 7.3 Amendments, etc. No amendment to or waiver of any provision of this Security Agreement, nor consent to any departure by any Grantor from its obligations under this Security Agreement, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement) and the Grantors and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

Section 7.4 Notices.

Upon any such Disposition or termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the

Grantors’ sole expense, deliver to the Grantors, without any representations, warranties or recourse of any kind whatsoever, all Collateral held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to the Grantors such documents as the Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

Section 7.6 Additional Grantors.

In addition to, and not in limitation of Section 2.5, no failure on the part of any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 7.8 Headings. The various headings of this Security Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Security Agreement or any provisions thereof.
