ARTICLE II

THE CREDITS

Section 2.1. Commitments; Incremental Facilities.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each relevant Lender agrees (i) to severally make Initial Term Loans in Dollars to the Parent Borrower on the Effective Date in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender, (ii) to severally make Domestic Revolving Loans in Dollars to the Parent Borrower from time to time during the Domestic Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Lender’s Domestic Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Domestic Revolving Commitment and (iii) to severally make Global Revolving Loans in Dollars or one or more Qualified Global Currencies (as specified in the Borrowing Requests with respect thereto) to any Borrower from time to time during the Global Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Lender’s Global Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Global Revolving Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Parent Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Domestic Revolving Loans, and any Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Global Revolving Loans. Amounts repaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(b) So long as no Default or Event of Default (including, on a pro forma basis, pursuant to Section 6.1) shall be in existence or would be caused thereby, the Parent Borrower and any one or more Lenders may from time to time agree that such Lenders (or any other additional bank, financial institution or other entity which becomes a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1(b)) shall add an additional term loan facility (the loans thereunder, the “Incremental Term Loans”) and/or increase the Commitments in respect of any of the Facilities by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any increase in the Foreign Credit Commitments, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent an Incremental Facility Activation Notice specifying (i) the amount of such Incremental Term Loans and/or Commitment increase, and (ii) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, (A) the applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, (B) the amortization schedule for such Incremental Term Loans, which shall comply with Section 2.11(b) and (C) the Applicable Rate for such Incremental Term Loans; provided that the aggregate principal amount of borrowings of Incremental Term Loans and Commitment increases shall not exceed $400,000,000. If the Applicable Rate for such Incremental Term Loans (which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing such Incremental Loans, with such fees or discount being equated to the interest rates in a manner reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Parent Borrower based on an assumed four-year life to maturity) exceeds the Applicable Rate for the other Term Loans by more than 0.50%, the Applicable Rate relating to such other Term Loans shall be adjusted to be equal to the Applicable Rate for such Incremental Term Loans (which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing such Incremental Loans, calculated in the manner provided above) minus 0.50%. Except for pricing, amortization and maturity, the terms of the Incremental Term Loans will be the same as the terms of the Initial Term Loans. In the case of any increase in the Commitments under any Facility (other than any Incremental Term Loan Facility), the terms applicable to such increased Commitments and the Loans thereunder shall be the same as the terms applicable to the Facility being so increased. In the case of any increase of the Domestic Revolving Facility or the Global Revolving Facility, any new Lender added in connection with such increase must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. In the case of any increase of the Foreign Trade Facility, any new Lender added in connection with such increase must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent. No Lender shall have any obligation to participate in any Incremental Term Loan or other increase described in this paragraph unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion. Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and, if applicable, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), elects to become a “Lender” under this Agreement in connection with the making of any Incremental Term Loan or the making of any additional Commitment shall execute a New Lender Supplement, whereupon such bank, financial institution or other entity shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

(b) Subject to Section 2.16, (i) each Revolving Borrowing denominated in Dollars and each Term Loan Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the relevant Borrower may request in accordance herewith and (ii) each Qualified Global Currency Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of

such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000.

If no election as to the currency of a Borrowing of Global Revolving Loans is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing if denominated in Dollars or a Eurocurrency Borrowing if denominated in a Qualified Global Currency. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have selected

an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each relevant Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

Section 2.4. Swingline Loans.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Parent Borrower from time to time during the Domestic Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $40,000,000 or (ii) the sum of the total Domestic Revolving Exposures exceeding the total Domestic Revolving Commitments; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Parent Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

(b) To request a Swingline Loan, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy promptly thereafter), not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Parent Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Parent Borrower by wiring the amount to the account designated by the Parent Borrower in the request for such Swingline Loan (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.5(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Lender) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

(c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any Business Day require the Domestic Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Domestic Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Domestic Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Domestic Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Domestic Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Domestic Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.7 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.7 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Domestic Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Domestic Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Parent Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Parent Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the

Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Domestic Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Parent Borrower of its obligation to repay such Swingline Loan.

Section 2.5. Letters of Credit.

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, any Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender, at any time and from time to time during the Domestic Revolving Availability Period.

Business Days prior to the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, Letters of Credit having an aggregate face amount not in excess of $150,000,000 may provide for an expiration date that is more than one year after the date of issuance, renewal or extension, so long as such expiration date does not extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) above.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Domestic Revolving Lender, and each Domestic Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Domestic Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of (i) each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in Dollars and (ii) the Dollar Equivalent, using the Exchange Rates on the date such payment is required, of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in an Alternative Currency and, in each case, not reimbursed by the relevant Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason (or, if such reimbursement payment was refunded in an Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent thereof using the Exchange Rates on the date of such refund). Each Domestic Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Domestic Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

If the applicable Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement plus any interim interest incurred pursuant to paragraph (h) of this Section for (x) LC Disbursements made in Dollars, in Dollars, or (y) LC Disbursements made in an Alternative Currency, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date such LC Disbursement is made, of such LC Disbursement, in each case, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time or the relevant local time, as applicable, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if such Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time or the relevant local time, as applicable, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by such Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time or the relevant local time, as applicable, on the Business Day immediately following the day that such Borrower receives such notice; provided that, in the case of any LC Disbursement made in Dollars, the relevant Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.3 or 2.4 that such payment be financed in Dollars with a Borrowing of ABR Domestic Revolving Loans or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing of ABR Domestic Revolving Loans or Swingline Loan. If the relevant Borrower fails to make such payment when due, then (i) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action required, such Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date when such payment was due, of such LC Disbursement and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender and each other Domestic Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the Dollar Equivalent thereof (if such LC Disbursement relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage

thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Domestic Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the relevant Borrower (determined as provided in clause (i) above, if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), in the same manner as provided in Section 2.7 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.7 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Domestic Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender in Dollars the amounts so received by it from the Domestic Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from any Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Domestic Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Domestic Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Domestic Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. A Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any application for the issuance of a Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender; provided that neither of the foregoing sentences shall be construed to excuse such Issuing Lender from liability to a Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

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

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Domestic Revolving Loans; provided that, if such Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement (including any interim interest incurred in connection with such LC Disbursement pursuant to this paragraph) when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.15(c) shall apply; provided further that, in the case of an LC Disbursement made under an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the amount of interest due with respect thereto shall (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed on or before the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement, (A) be payable in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date such LC Disbursement is made, of such LC Disbursement and (B) if not reimbursed on the date of such LC Disbursement, bear interest at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable Issuing Lender to be the cost to such Issuing Lender of funding such LC Disbursement plus the Applicable Rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans at such time and (ii) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed after the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement (A) be payable in Dollars, (B) accrue on the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date such LC Disbursement was made, of such LC Disbursement and (C) bear interest at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans, subject to Section 2.15(c). Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Domestic Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of any Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of such Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Parent Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of such Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that a Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Domestic Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing at least 51% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, such Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the

Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Domestic Revolving Lenders, an amount in Dollars and in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that (i) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Alternative Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency that the Borrowers are not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Alternative Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements and (ii) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Article VII. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Alternative Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date notice demanding cash collateralization is delivered to a Borrower. Each Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.12(c). Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to Section 2.12(c) shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of each Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the relevant Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the relevant Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Domestic Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing at least 51% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of such Borrower under this Agreement. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.12(c), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, such Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.12(c), and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Furthermore, if any Letter of Credit is outstanding on the date that the Parent Borrower terminates the Domestic Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.9(b), the Parent Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, either (A) cause any such Letter of Credit to be surrendered for cancellation to the applicable Issuing Lender or (B) provide cash collateral pursuant to the terms of this paragraph (or other credit support reasonably satisfactory) to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Issuing Lender in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Face Amount of such Letter of Credit pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Parent Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent a security interest in all such cash collateral and all proceeds thereof. Such cash collateral shall be maintained in a blocked interest-bearing deposit account at Bank of America. Upon notice to the Administrative Agent of the termination, reduction or expiration (without a pending drawing) of any such Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall release the relevant cash collateral within three Business Days of the relevant date of termination, reduction or expiration, and the Administrative Agent shall use such cash collateral to promptly reimburse any Issuing Lender honoring any drawing under any such Letter of Credit.

(k) Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to Article VII, all amounts (i) that a Borrower is at the time or thereafter becomes required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect of which such Borrower has deposited cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.5(j), if such cash collateral was deposited in the applicable

Alternative Currency to the extent so deposited or applied), (ii) that the Domestic Revolving Lenders are at the time or thereafter become required to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and (iii) of each Domestic Revolving Lender’s participation in any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is made), of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any Lender in respect of the Obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder.

(l) Additional Issuing Lenders. The Parent Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Domestic Revolving Lender, designate one or more additional Domestic Revolving Lenders to act as an Issuing Lender under the terms of this Agreement; provided that the total number of Domestic Revolving Lenders so designated at any time plus the total number of Issuing Lenders pursuant to clause (c) of the definition of the term “Issuing Lenders” at such time shall not exceed five. Any Domestic Revolving Lender designated as Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph (1) shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Lender” for the purposes of this Agreement (in addition to being a Domestic Revolving Lender) with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Domestic Revolving Lender.

(m) Reporting. Each Issuing Lender will report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding week, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance or amendment, and the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and such Issuing Lender shall advise the Administrative Agent on such Business Day whether such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred and whether the amount thereof changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (iv) on any Business Day on which any Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Lender on such day, the date of such failure, the relevant Borrower and amount of such LC Disbursement.

Section 2.6. Foreign Credit Instruments.

(a) Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Foreign Issuing Lender severally agrees to issue Foreign Credit Instruments and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments in an aggregate principal amount the Dollar Equivalent of which does not exceed the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment of such Foreign Issuing Lender at any time and from time to time from the Effective Date until the Foreign Trade Maturity Date; provided that after giving effect to any issuance of any Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument, the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding amount of the Foreign Credit Reimbursement Obligations, the Foreign Credit Instruments and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments at such time and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Foreign Credit Commitments at such time. Each Existing Foreign Credit Instrument issued by a Foreign Issuing Lender shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to constitute a Foreign Credit Instrument issued by such Foreign Issuing Lender pursuant hereto and the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing

Commitment of such Lender shall be deemed utilized in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of all Existing Foreign Credit Instruments issued by it and determined as of the Effective Date, subject to subsequent determinations of such Dollar Equivalent pursuant to Section 2.6(n). Each Foreign Issuing Lender at its option (after consultation with the Parent Borrower) may issue any Foreign Credit Instrument and/or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Foreign Issuing Lender to issue such Foreign Credit Instrument and/or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument if in the judgment of such Lender such designation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.19, as the case may be and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligations of the relevant Borrower or such Foreign Issuing Lender under this Section 2.6. Each Foreign Issuing Lender hereby confirms that the Existing Foreign Credit Instruments issued by it conform to the Mandatory Requirements.

(b) Extension Option.

(i) The Parent Borrower may, not more than twice during the term of this Agreement, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (such notice being an “Extension Notice”) delivered no later than 90 and not more than 180 days prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date (or, in the case of the second such notice, no later than 90 and not more than 180 days prior to the date that is two years after such second anniversary) (the date of such notice, the “Notice Date”), request the Lenders with a Foreign Credit Commitment and the Foreign Issuing Lenders to extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date for an additional two years (the “Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date”). The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly transmit any Extension Notice to each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment and each Foreign Issuing Lender. Each Foreign Issuing Lender and each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment shall notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent whether it wishes to extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date at least 60 days prior to such anniversary of the Effective Date, and any such notice given by a Foreign Issuing Lender or a Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, once given, shall be irrevocable as to such Lender. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower of the notice of each Foreign Issuing Lender and each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment that it wishes to extend (each, an “Extension Acceptance Notice”). Any Foreign Issuing Lender and any Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment which does not expressly notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on or before the date that is 60 days prior to the then applicable anniversary of the Effective Date that it wishes to so extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date shall be deemed to have rejected the Parent Borrower’s request for extension of such Foreign Trade Maturity Date. If all the Lenders with a Foreign Credit Commitment and all the Foreign Issuing Lenders have elected (in their sole and absolute discretion) to so extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower of such election by the Lenders with a Foreign Credit Commitment and the Foreign Issuing Lenders no later than five Business Days after the date when Extension Acceptance Notices are due, and effective on the date of such notice by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower (the “Extension Date”), the Foreign Trade Maturity Date shall be automatically and immediately so extended to the Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date. No extension will be permitted hereunder without the consent of all the Lenders with a Foreign Credit Commitment and all the Foreign Issuing Lenders (after giving effect to the replacement of any non-extending Lender or non-extending Foreign Issuing Lender pursuant to paragraph (iii) or (iv) below, as applicable) unless, at the election of the Parent Borrower, in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the Parent Borrower removes from the Foreign Trade Facility each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment and each Foreign

Issuing Lender that has not so consented to the Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date, in which case the Foreign Credit Commitments and Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments of each such removed Lenders and Foreign Issuing Lenders, as applicable, will be automatically terminated, and the aggregate Foreign Credit Commitments and Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments hereunder shall be reduced by the amounts of the Foreign Credit Commitments and Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments of such removed Lenders and removed Foreign Issuing Lenders, as applicable; provided, that, (x) after giving effect to any such removal by the Parent Borrower and resulting termination of the Foreign Credit Commitment or Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment of any such removed Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender, (A) the total Foreign Trade Exposures of all the Foreign Issuing Lenders (including those non-extending Foreign Issuing Lenders that have not, at the election of the Parent Borrower in its sole discretion, received a Counter Guarantee to support the outstanding Foreign Credit Instruments and/or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments issued by such non-extending Foreign Issuing Lender) does not exceed the total Foreign Credit Commitments of all the extending Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments, (B) each outstanding Foreign Credit Instrument and/or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument issued by a Foreign Issuing Lender removed in accordance with this Section shall continue to be considered an issued Foreign Credit Instrument and/or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Commitment hereunder and part of the Foreign Trade Exposure hereunder unless the Parent Borrower elects in its sole discretion to have a Counter Guarantee issued hereunder in favor of such removed Foreign Issuing Lender to support such Foreign Credit Instruments and/or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Commitments, in which case such Foreign Credit Instruments and/or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments shall no longer be considered to be Foreign Credit Instruments or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments issued pursuant to this Agreement except that for purposes of Section 2.6(p)(iii), (iv) and (v) and Section 2.6(h) such Foreign Credit Instruments and/or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments shall continue to be considered as issued pursuant to this Agreement and the Borrowers’ obligations under such Sections with respect to fees, costs, expenses, reimbursement and indemnification obligations shall continue to apply with respect to such Foreign Credit Instruments and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall have entered into such agreements, if any, as any of them shall have reasonably requested to reflect such extension of the Foreign Trade Facility with reduced Foreign Credit Commitments and Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments, as the case may be, reflecting the removal of such Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments and Foreign Issuing Lenders, as the case may be (and any participations purchased under this Agreement shall be automatically appropriately adjusted in amount to reflect the such changed Commitments) and (y) any such removed Lender or removed Foreign Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall have received payment of all amounts owing to such removed Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender with respect to its Foreign Credit Commitment and/or Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment, as applicable, including the repayment of an amount equal to the outstanding funded participations of all Foreign Credit Disbursements made by such removed Lender or funded Foreign Credit Disbursements made by such removed Foreign Issuing Lender, as applicable, any accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in connection with such respective Commitments. Upon the delivery of an Extension Notice and upon the extension of the Foreign Trade Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.6(b)(i), the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted on and as of the Notice Date and the Extension Date, as the case may be, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment or Foreign Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to extend the Foreign Trade Maturity Date, and each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment and each Foreign Issuing Lender may (with respect to its respective Foreign Credit Commitment and/or Foreign Credit

Instrument Issuing Commitment) at its option, unconditionally and without cause, decline to extend the Foreign Trade Maturity Date.

(ii) If the Foreign Trade Maturity Date shall have been extended in accordance with Section 2.6(b)(i), all references herein to the “Foreign Trade Maturity Date” shall refer to the Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date.

(iii) The Parent Borrower shall have the right on or before the applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date to replace each non-extending Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment with one or more Persons (A) reasonably satisfactory to the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and (B) satisfactory to the Foreign Issuing Lenders in their sole discretion (the “Additional Commitment Lender”), as provided in Section 2.21(b), each of which such Additional Commitment Lenders shall have entered into an Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective as of the applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date, undertake a Foreign Credit Commitment (and if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its new Commitment shall be in addition to any other Commitment of such Lender on such date).

(iv) The Parent Borrower shall have the right on or before the applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date to replace each non-extending Foreign Issuing Lender with one or more Persons reasonably satisfactory to the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (the “Additional Foreign Issuing Lender”), as provided in Section 2.21(b), each of which such Additional Foreign Issuing Lenders shall have entered into an Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which such Additional Foreign Issuing Lender shall, effective as of the applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date, undertake a Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment (and if any such Additional Foreign Issuing Lender is already a Foreign Issuing Lender, its new Commitment shall be in addition to any other Commitment of such Foreign Issuing Lender on such date).

(c) Procedure for Issuance and Reversals. Each Borrower may, at any time and from time to time during the period from the Effective Date until the Foreign Trade Maturity Date, request the issuance of Foreign Credit Instruments or an extension or other amendment of any outstanding Foreign Credit Instrument by sending to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent a duly completed request for issuance (each, a “Utilization Request”) by electronic transfer using the db direct internet in accordance with the terms of the DB Direct Internet Agreement. If for technical reasons it should not be possible to make a request for issuance through db direct internet, such request may be made (to be pre-advised by the relevant Borrower) via fax or by letter, in substantially the form of Exhibit I, in each case to a fax number or address agreed with the Foreign Trade Facility Agent for this purpose, receipt of such fax or letter to be promptly confirmed by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent to the relevant Borrower for this purpose; provided that in such case explicit reference has to be made to this Agreement and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall in such case not be held responsible for a delayed processing of such Utilization Request unless such delayed processing is caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent following the confirmation of the receipt of the relevant fax or letter. As the Foreign Trade Facility Agent will not, in the event a Utilization Request is submitted by telefax, be in a position to verify whether such Utilization Request has been duly authorized and sent by the relevant Borrower, each Borrower hereby agrees that the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be entitled to execute all Utilization Requests received by telefax if on their face such telefax letters seem to be duly authorized and executed by persons acting on behalf of such Borrower who have been identified as authorized signatories in annex 1.3.1 to the DB Direct Internet Agreement or in the officer’s certificate furnished pursuant to Section 4.1(h). Neither the Foreign Trade Facility Agent nor any of the Lenders shall be held liable for the execution of any forged Utilization Request received by telefax except where the forgery is

evident on the face of the forged Utilization Request furnished to such Person or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or the respective Foreign Issuing Lender acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such Utilization Request. No Utilization Request will be regarded as having been duly completed unless:

(i) the requested undertaking would constitute a Warranty Guarantee, a Performance Guarantee, an Advance Payment Guarantee, a Tender Guarantee, a Counter-Guarantee or a General Purpose Guarantee;

(ii) the terms and conditions for the requested Foreign Credit Instrument are in accordance with the Mandatory Requirements;

(iii) the requested Foreign Credit Instrument is denominated in a Permitted Currency or any other currency agreed by the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent;

(iv) the specific expiry date of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument, which must not be stated by reference to any events in the underlying contract and which is not subject to any interpretation, or, if the requested Foreign Credit Instrument does not provide for such determination of a specific expiry date, the Commercial Lifetime, shall fall within the Permitted Maturity;

(v) the obligor of the obligations to be supported by the requested Foreign Credit Instrument is named;

(vi) upon issuance of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument (for this purpose such Foreign Credit Instrument is deemed to be issued at the time of receipt of the Utilization Request therefor by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent), the thresholds for the different types of Foreign Credit Instruments set forth under Section 2.6(d) would not be exceeded;

(vii) a Foreign Issuing Lender is determined pursuant to the terms hereof; and

(viii) the Utilization Request is in compliance with Section 2.6(d).

Only one Foreign Credit Instrument may be requested in each Utilization Request. A Utilization Request may only be revoked by the relevant Borrower (x) until the Foreign Trade Facility Agent has forwarded the Utilization Request to the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 2.6(g), by giving notice to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or (y) thereafter, by giving notice to the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender which has to be received by such Foreign Issuing Lender at a time when such Foreign Issuing Lender will, with reasonable efforts, still be in a position to stop the delivery of the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument to the relevant beneficiary or any other Person as instructed by such Borrower. In such case, the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender shall promptly inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the relevant Borrower that the requested Foreign Credit Instrument has not been issued. No Foreign Issuing Lender shall be required to issue a Foreign Credit Instrument in any jurisdiction that would impose withholding taxes on any payments in respect of such Foreign Credit Instrument.

(d) Limitations on Use. The Borrowers may only request the issuance of Foreign Credit Instruments if:

(i) the Dollar Equivalent of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Dollar Equivalent of all other outstanding Foreign Credit Instruments and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request, does not exceed the total Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments or the total Foreign Credit Commitments;

(ii) if the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes a Warranty Guarantee, the Dollar Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Dollar Equivalent of all other outstanding Warranty Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of Warranty Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request, does not exceed 30% of the total Foreign Credit Commitments;

(iii) if the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes a Performance Guarantee, the Dollar Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Dollar Equivalent of all other outstanding Performance Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of Performance Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request, does not exceed 60% of the total Foreign Credit Commitments;

(iv) if the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes an Advance Payment Guarantee, the Dollar Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Dollar Equivalent of all other outstanding Advance Payment Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of Advance Payment Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request, does not exceed 45% of the total Foreign Credit Commitments;

(v) if the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes a Tender Guarantee, the Dollar Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Dollar Equivalent of all other outstanding Tender Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of Tender Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request, does not exceed 10% of the total Foreign Credit Commitments; and

(vi) if the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes a General Purpose Guarantee, the Dollar Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Dollar Equivalent of all other outstanding General Purpose Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of General Purpose Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request, does not exceed 10% of the total Foreign Credit Commitments.

If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent is of the opinion that a requested Foreign Credit Instrument is not of the type as specified in the Utilization Request by a Borrower or if the type of Foreign Credit Instrument is not clearly specified in the relevant Utilization Request, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall reasonably determine the type of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument based on the purpose (or, if such Foreign Credit Instrument is intended to serve more than one purpose, the primary purpose) assumed by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on the basis of the wording of the relevant requested Foreign Credit Instrument and the facts and circumstances known to it at the time of the receipt of such Utilization Request, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall inform such Borrower accordingly of such determination. If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the relevant Borrower mutually determine at a later stage that a Foreign Credit Instrument shall fall into another category, such re-qualification shall be taken into account for the purpose of this Section 2.6(d). No Borrower shall make a Utilization Request for Foreign Credit Instruments to serve as security for obligations of any Person other than a Borrower or a Subsidiary.

(e) Deviations from Foreign Credit Instrument Requirements. No Foreign Credit Instrument shall be issued by any Foreign Issuing Lender if the Mandatory Requirements are not fulfilled. No Foreign Issuing Lender shall be obliged to issue a Foreign Credit Instrument (i) which does not fulfill the Dispensable Requirements, (ii) which shall be issued in a currency other than a Permitted Currency, or (iii) if the issuance of the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument is not permitted pursuant to its internal rules and guidelines. In order to avoid a rejection of any issuance of a Foreign Credit Instrument requested by a Borrower due to non-compliance of its terms with the Dispensable Requirements, each Borrower hereby undertakes that, with respect to any Foreign Credit Instrument to be issued where the Borrower considers it reasonably likely that it will not be in a position to negotiate with the relevant future beneficiary terms for the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument which will meet the Dispensable Requirements, such Borrower will as soon as possible approach the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and designate a Foreign Issuing Lender to issue such Foreign Credit Instrument pursuant to the terms of Section 2.6(f). Each Borrower shall seek advice from the Foreign Issuing Lender designated by such Borrower as the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender with respect to all Foreign Credit Instrument related issues during its negotiations of the underlying contract with the potential beneficiary of such Foreign Credit Instrument. In cases where, in spite of such Borrower’s commercially reasonable efforts, fulfillment of the Dispensable Requirements appears unachievable, the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender and such Borrower shall try to reach an agreement on an indemnity in favor of such Foreign Issuing Lender which allows such Foreign Issuing Lender to issue the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument in its contractual relationship with such Borrower; provided that the right of the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender to reject the issuance of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument shall remain unaffected.

(f) Receipt of Utilization Request.

(i) Following the receipt of a Utilization Request, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine whether in its opinion the Utilization Request is duly completed. If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent is of the opinion that the Utilization Request is not duly completed, it shall promptly inform the relevant Borrower and shall liaise with such Borrower with a view to agree on a modification of such Utilization Request. If no such agreement can be reached, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall reject the Utilization Request. If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent is of the opinion (as the case may be, following a modification of such Utilization Request) that the Utilization Request is duly completed, it shall forward such Utilization Request to the determined Foreign Issuing Lender(s).

(ii) If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent determines that, due to the amount of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument, the requested Foreign Credit Instrument cannot be issued by a single Foreign Issuing Lender, it shall promptly inform the relevant Borrower and such Borrower shall then either withdraw the relevant Utilization Request or instruct the Foreign Trade Facility Agent that the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument shall be split into two or, if necessary due to the amount of the Foreign Credit Instrument, more Foreign Credit Instruments issued by several Foreign Issuing Lenders.

(iii) In no event shall the aggregate amount (without duplication) of the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of all Foreign Credit Instruments and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments issued by all Foreign Issuing Lenders plus the Dollar Equivalent of all unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements of all such Foreign Issuing Lenders exceed the aggregate amount of the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments or the Foreign Credit Commitments.

(g) Issuance of Foreign Credit Instruments.

(i) The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly forward each Utilization Request to the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender no later than 3:00 p.m., Düsseldorf time, on the Business Day following the day it has received such Utilization Request (or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the Business Day following the first Business Day after the day the Foreign Trade Facility Agent has received the Utilization Request) (the “Latest Notification Day”). The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine in its notice to the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender the day on which the requested Foreign Credit Instrument shall be issued (such day being the “Utilization Date”) which shall be the second Business Day of such Foreign Issuing Lender immediately following its receipt of the Utilization Request. Such Foreign Issuing Lender(s) shall issue the respective Foreign Credit Instrument(s) on the Utilization Date unless such Foreign Issuing Lender informs the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the relevant Borrower on or prior to 5:00 p.m., Düsseldorf time, on the Utilization Date that (and specifying the reasons) (x) it will not be able to issue the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument on the Utilization Date (in which case the Foreign Issuing Lender shall inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and such Borrower when it will be able to issue the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument) or (y) it will not be able to issue the Foreign Credit Instrument at all (1) due to its internal rules and guidelines, (2) due to any applicable law or regulation with which it has to comply, (3) due to the currency (other than any Permitted Currency) in which the Foreign Credit Instrument shall be issued, (4) because it is of the opinion that the Mandatory Requirements are not fulfilled, or (5) because it is of the opinion that the Dispensable Requirements are not fulfilled.

(ii) If a Foreign Credit Instrument shall be issued on the same day the Utilization Request is delivered to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (or if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day), the relevant Borrower shall inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in advance that the requested Foreign Credit Instrument shall be issued on the same day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day). The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly inform the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender accordingly which shall be obliged to use commercially reasonable efforts to issue the Foreign Credit Instrument on the same day as it receives the Utilization Request.

(iii) (A) In the cases referred to in clause (x) or clause (y)(3) of Section 2.6(g)(i) above, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall obtain, and follow, instructions from the relevant Borrower, (B) in the cases referred to in clause (y)(1), (2), (4) and (5) of Section 2.6(g)(i) above, the relevant Borrower shall agree with the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender any amendments necessary to the respective Foreign Credit Instrument to enable the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender to issue the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument and, in the case of sub-paragraph (y)(5), Section 2.6(e) shall apply mutatis mutandis, (C) if, in the cases referred to under (A) or (B) above, no agreement can be reached between the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender and the relevant Borrower, such Foreign Issuing Lender shall reject the request to issue the requested Foreign Credit Instrument and the relevant Borrower shall promptly advise the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and shall designate another Foreign Issuing Lender and the time for issuance of the Foreign Credit Instrument shall be postponed to the extent necessary for practical reasons. Such Foreign Issuing Lender shall promptly inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent about all changes agreed with such Borrower with respect to a Utilization Request in accordance with this clause (iii).

(iv) The relevant Foreign Issuing Lender may either issue the Foreign Credit Instrument directly or, if requested by and agreed with the relevant Borrower, arrange that the Foreign Credit Instrument (an “Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument”) be issued by a second bank (including one of its affiliates) or financial institution (the “Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender”) against its corresponding Counter-Guarantee in the form satisfactory to the Indirect Foreign

Issuing Lender. In case of an Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument, such Foreign Issuing Lender is entitled to receive, for payment to the Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender, separate fees and expenses in respect of such Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument in addition to the fees and expenses pursuant to Section 2.6(p). In line with international practices, the validity of a Counter-Guarantee in favor of the Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender will exceed the validity of the Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument by at least ten calendar days.

(v) If a Utilization Request is made to request an amendment (including an extension) of any outstanding Foreign Credit Instrument, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall forward the Utilization Request to the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender if the requirements of Section 2.6(d) are fulfilled. Clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 2.6(g) shall apply mutatis mutandis.

(vi) Each Foreign Issuing Lender shall comply at all times with the obligations set forth on Schedule 2.6(g).

(vii) If the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender has not rejected the request to issue a Foreign Credit Instrument, the requested currency of which is not a Permitted Currency, the relevant Borrower assumes all risks related thereto and shall reimburse all costs reasonably incurred in connection with the procurement of such currency for honoring such Foreign Credit Instrument in such specific currency.

(h) Borrower Liabilities.

(i) If a Foreign Issuing Lender receives a request for payment under any Foreign Credit Instrument (including from an Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender under a Counter-Guarantee) issued by it, it shall promptly (and before any payment is made in respect thereof) inform the relevant Borrower, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent accordingly. A Borrower’s obligation to reimburse any payment made by a Foreign Issuing Lender under a Foreign Credit Instrument (each, a “Foreign Credit Disbursement”) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Foreign Credit Instrument, any request for the issuance thereof or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, or (if any) underlying agreement (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Foreign Credit Instrument proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender under a Foreign Credit Instrument against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Foreign Credit Instrument, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the Lenders nor any Foreign Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Foreign Credit Instrument or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Foreign Credit Instrument (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in the finding of true facts or law or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender; provided that neither of the foregoing sentences shall be construed to excuse such Foreign Issuing Lender from liability to the

applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Foreign Issuing Lender’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Foreign Credit Instrument comply with the terms thereof, or if the obligation to honor a request for payment under a Foreign Credit Instrument depends upon non-documentary conditions, whether questions of facts or law at issue in the underlying transaction justify the payment by the Foreign Issuing Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, (i) with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Foreign Credit Instrument, a Foreign Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Foreign Credit Instrument; or (ii) if the obligation to honor a request for payment under a Foreign Credit Instrument depends upon non-documentary conditions, a Foreign Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such facts presented in connection with the request for payment, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary; provided, however, that the applicable Borrower does not promptly provide irrefutable evidence that facts presented in connection with the request for payment are not true, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such facts. Without limiting any rights that the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender may have under applicable law, (i) the applicable Borrower’s aggregate remedies against the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender for wrongfully honoring a presentation or wrongfully retaining honored documents shall in no event exceed the aggregate amount paid by such Borrower to such Foreign Issuing Lender with respect to the honored presentation, plus interest at the rate equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for Interest Periods of one month, (ii) may accept as a draft any written or electronic demand or request for payment under a Foreign Credit Instrument, even if non-negotiable or not in the form of a draft, and may disregard any requirement that such draft, demand or request bear any or adequate reference to the Foreign Credit Instrument, and (iii) may purchase or discount an accepted draft or deferred payment obligation incurred under a Foreign Credit Instrument without affecting the amount or timing of the reimbursement due from the applicable Borrower.

(ii) The relevant Borrower shall, upon demand from the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender, reimburse such Foreign Issuing Lender for, and irrevocably and unconditionally indemnify such Foreign Issuing Lender against any sum paid or payable in accordance with clause (i) above under a Foreign Credit Instrument issued by such Foreign Issuing Lender at the request of such Borrower and against all other liabilities, reasonable costs (including any costs incurred in funding any amount paid by such Foreign Issuing Lender under or in connection with such Foreign Credit Instrument), claims, losses and expenses which such Foreign Issuing Lender may at any time (whether before, on or after the Foreign Trade Maturity Date) reasonably incur or sustain in connection with or arising out of any such Foreign Credit Instrument. Each such reimbursement shall be made in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of the currency in which the applicable Foreign Credit Disbursement was made. If a Foreign Issuing Lender shall make any Foreign Credit Disbursement, then, unless the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such Foreign Credit Disbursement in full on the date such Foreign Credit Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such Foreign Credit Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such Foreign Credit Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Domestic Revolving Loans; provided that if such Borrower fails to reimburse such Foreign Credit Disbursement upon demand (including any interim interest incurred in connection with such Foreign Credit

Disbursement pursuant to this sentence), then Section 2.15(c)(ii) shall apply in respect of the overdue amounts.

(i) Participations. (i) By the issuance of a Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument (or an amendment to a Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender or the Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments, the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment, and each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment hereby acquires from such Foreign Issuing Lender, a participation in such Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in Dollars, for the account of such Foreign Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of (i) each Foreign Credit Disbursement made by such Foreign Issuing Lender in Dollars and (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of each Foreign Credit Disbursement made by such Foreign Issuing Lender in a Permitted Currency or in another currency permitted under Section 2.6(g)(vii) and, in each case, not reimbursed or indemnified by the relevant Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (h) of this Section, or of any such reimbursement or indemnity payment required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason. Each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Foreign Credit Instruments and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Foreign Credit Instrument and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Foreign Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(j) Reimbursement. If the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender shall make any payment in respect of a Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument in accordance with Section 2.6(h), and if the relevant Borrower fails to reimburse or to indemnify such Foreign Issuing Lender for such payment in accordance with Section 2.6(h), the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender and each other Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment of the applicable unreimbursed amount, the Dollar Equivalent thereof, the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment shall pay to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in Dollars its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the relevant Borrower, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender in Dollars the amounts so received by it from each such Lender. Each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment at its option (after consultation with the Parent Borrower) may perform any reimbursement obligation pursuant to this Section 2.6(j) by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to perform such reimbursement obligation if in the judgment of such Lender such designation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.19, as the case may be and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligations of the relevant Borrower or such Lender under this Section 2.6. Promptly following receipt by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent of any payment from any Borrower pursuant to Section 2.6(h), the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall distribute such payment to the Lenders that have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Foreign Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Foreign Issuing Lender for any payment or indemnity made by the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.6(h)

shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to make any reimbursement or indemnity pursuant to Section 2.6(h).

(k) Reversal of Foreign Credit Instruments.

(i) Each Foreign Issuing Lender will notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on each Business Day about any expiration or reduction of the Face Amount of any Foreign Credit Instrument or Counter-Guarantee issued by it which became effective the preceding Business Day (the “Foreign Credit Instrument Termination Date”) (a “Utilization Reduction Notice”). With respect to:

(A) a Foreign Credit Instrument (other than a Counter-Guarantee or an Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument) which under its terms expires without any doubt if no demand has been received by such Foreign Issuing Lender on or before a specified expiry date, such Foreign Issuing Lender will, on the next Business Day following the expiry date, give a Utilization Reduction Notice, unless the terms of such Foreign Credit Instrument provide that it shall be governed in accordance with the laws of any country other than a country which has been a member state of the European Union as of December 2002 (in which case clause (B) below shall apply mutatis mutandis);

(B) a Foreign Credit Instrument (other than a Counter Guarantee or an Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument) which, under its terms either does not provide for a specific expiry date or does not otherwise expire without any doubt if no demand for payment has been received by such Foreign Issuing Lender on or before a definite expiry date or in the case of a release of a Foreign Credit Instrument before the expiry date specified therein, such Foreign Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice (1) as and when the original of the Foreign Credit Instrument including all amendments, if any, is being received by it from the beneficiary or the relevant Borrower, or (2) after having received any explicit notice of release from the beneficiary in form and substance substantially in accordance with the form provided in Schedule 2.6(k);

(C) a Counter-Guarantee, such Foreign Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice only upon being unconditionally discharged in writing from any respective liability by the Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender, or upon such Foreign Issuing Lender having paid the amount available under the Counter-Guarantee to the Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender; provided that if the Foreign Issuing Lender has been prevented from effecting such payment without delay, the Utilization Reduction Notice is subject to any assertion of damages on account of delay by the Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender;

(D) a Foreign Credit Instrument (other than a Counter-Guarantee) issued in connection with legal proceedings in Germany, such Foreign Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice only upon receipt of the original of the Foreign Credit Instrument for discharge from the beneficiary or upon the beneficiary’s consent to the discharge or upon establishment of the expiry of the Foreign Credit Instrument by an executory order according to §109(2) of the German Code of Civil Procedure;

(E) a Foreign Credit Instrument (including a Counter-Guarantee where the related Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument is), expressly subject to the Uniform Rules for Demand Guarantees of the International Chamber of Commerce in Paris, such Foreign Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice if under said rules a reversal of a letter of credit or guarantee would have to be made;

(F) reductions of a Foreign Credit Instrument or an Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument/Counter-Guarantee, such Foreign Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice only if (1) the terms and conditions of any reduction clause of the terms of the Foreign Credit Instrument are, without any doubt, complied with or if the beneficiary or, in the case of an Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument, the Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender has certified in writing and unconditionally the reduction of the Foreign Credit Instrument or Counter-Guarantee respectively or (2) the Foreign Issuing Lender has effected partial payment pursuant to a demand; and

(G) any Foreign Credit Instrument in relation to which such Foreign Issuing Lender has effected full payment pursuant to a demand so that the beneficiary would not be entitled to claim any further payment, such Foreign Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice.

(ii) If a claim under a Foreign Credit Instrument is lodged with the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender after such Foreign Issuing Lender has given a Utilization Reduction Notice with respect to such Foreign Credit Instrument:

(A) such Foreign Issuing Lender shall effect payment only if such payment is expressly authorized by the relevant Borrower or ordered by a court decision, enforceable in the country where it was rendered; and

(B) the relevant Borrower shall (1) indemnify such Foreign Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 2.6(h) and (2) pay to such Foreign Issuing Lender an amount (without duplication) equal to the Foreign Credit Commitment Fee such Foreign Issuing Lender would have received if the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument had been outstanding from the date the relevant Utilization Reduction Notice was given until the date payment is made by such Borrower to the Foreign Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 2.6(h).

(iii) From and including the day the Utilization Reduction Notice is made, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender shall treat each Foreign Credit Instrument subject to such Utilization Reduction Notice for any calculations under this Agreement, as non-existing or, as the case may be, as reduced as specified in the Utilization Reduction Notice; provided that, for the purpose of calculating the fees in respect of the Foreign Trade Facility pursuant to Section 2.6(p), such Foreign Credit Instrument shall in any case be treated as non-existing, or, as the case may be, as reduced from the day following the Foreign Credit Instrument Termination Date.

(l) Permitted Maturity. Each Foreign Credit Instrument shall have an expiry date that complies with the definition of Permitted Maturity, unless any such Foreign Credit Instrument does not provide for a specific expiry date, in which case the Commercial Lifetime of such Foreign Credit Instrument shall fall within the Permitted Maturity.

(m) Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments.

(i) If a Utilization Request has been made for a Foreign Credit Instrument to be issued as a Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument, then the relevant Borrower will approach the relevant beneficiary to ascertain whether such beneficiary is prepared to accept a Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument. In case of the beneficiary’s acceptance, the Foreign Trade

Facility Agent will, in close coordination with such Borrower, select the relevant Foreign Issuing Lenders (the “Joint Foreign Issuing Lenders”) prepared to issue the Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument and acceptable to the beneficiary.

(ii) The Joint Foreign Issuing Lenders so selected will then appoint one of the Joint Foreign Issuing Lenders to act as their agent (the “Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent”) in connection with the Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument acting on terms to be agreed between the Joint Foreign Issuing Lenders and the Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent pursuant to an agreement substantially in the form of Schedule 2.6(m). The Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be responsible for coordinating the Joint Foreign Issuing Lenders and shall represent the Joint Foreign Issuing Lenders vis-à-vis the beneficiary, and the Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be responsible for processing the Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument. In such capacity, the Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall give to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent the notices otherwise to be given by each Foreign Issuing Lender hereunder, in particular under Sections 2.6(i), 2.6(o) and 2.6(p)(i).

(iii) Any liability of the Joint Foreign Issuing Lenders under a Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument, and the rights resulting from honoring a demand made thereunder, shall be several. Each Joint Foreign Issuing Lender shall be responsible for the proportionate amount demanded by the beneficiary under a Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument in the proportion the amount of the Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument allocated to it bears to the total Dollar Equivalent of such Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall, with respect to the determination of the utilization of the individual Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment of each Joint Foreign Issuing Lender and with respect to the calculation of any Excess Amount, treat each Joint Foreign Issuing Lender in the Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument as if each Joint Foreign Issuing Lender had issued a Foreign Credit Instrument in the amount equal to the amount of its proportionate amount in the Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument.

(n) Determination of Dollar Equivalent. On each Business Day on which any Foreign Credit Instrument is outstanding under this Agreement, or there is any other Foreign Trade Exposure, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of all outstanding Foreign Credit Instruments and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements (in each case adjusted to reflect any repayment, prepayment or reversal of any relevant Foreign Credit Instrument) on the basis of the foreign exchange rates for the previous Business Day which shall be determined as follows:

(i) if the conversion rate of the respective currency into Dollars is published on the internet page
“xxx.xx-xxxxxxx.xxx” (on the sub-page “Markets”, sub-page “FX Rates”, sub-page “FX Historic Rates”, link “DB Fixings (Frankfurt)” or on any other internet page replacing such internet page, the calculation shall be based on the rates displayed on such internet page; and

(ii) if the conversion rate of the respective currency into Dollars is not published on the internet page “xxx.xx-xxxxxxx.xxx” (on the sub-page “Markets”, sub-page “FX Rates”, sub-page “FX Historic Rates”, link “DB Fixings (Frankfurt)” or on any other internet page replacing such internet page, the calculation shall be based on the previous month’s foreign exchange rates published on the same internet page on the sub-page “FX Historic Rates”, further sub-page “End-of-Month prices”.

If the relevant exchange rate cannot be determined in accordance with clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine the appropriate exchange rate in its reasonable discretion.

(o) Cash Cover.

(i) If, pursuant to a Daily Report issued on the last Business Day of any calendar month (each a “Rebasing Date”), (A) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Trade Exposure of the Foreign Issuing Lenders exceeds the aggregate amount of the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments of the Foreign Issuing Lenders or the aggregate amount of the Foreign Credit Commitments of the Lenders or (B) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Credit Instruments and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments outstanding plus the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements exceeds the amount of the Foreign Credit Commitments of the Lenders, in either case, by more than $500,000 (any such exceeding amount being the “Excess Amount”), the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall request in writing from the Parent Borrower, within a period of five Business Days following receipt of the respective Daily Report, Cash Cover with respect to such Excess Amount, and the Parent Borrower shall, within a period of four Business Days following receipt of the demand from the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, provide for Cash Cover in accordance with clause (iv) below.

(ii) Clause (i) above shall be applicable mutatis mutandis if, in respect of any Rebasing Date subsequent to a Rebasing Date in respect of which Cash Cover had been provided, the Excess Amount has increased by an amount equal to $500,000 of the aggregate Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments or Foreign Credit Commitments due to fluctuation of currency exchange rates.

(iii) If in respect of any Rebasing Date subsequent to a Rebasing Date in respect of which Cash Cover had been provided pursuant to clause (i) above to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the Excess Amount (as shown in the relevant Daily Report) has been reduced to zero (either through fluctuation of currency exchange rates or through the reduction or expiration of any Foreign Credit Instruments), the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall release the whole or relevant part of the Cash Cover within three Business Days of the relevant Rebasing Date.

(iv) If a Borrower is obliged to provide for Cash Cover under this Agreement, such Borrower shall pay the relevant amount for which it shall provide Cash Cover in Dollars or in the Dollar Equivalent of the currency of the respective Foreign Credit Instrument for which Cash Cover has to be provided to an account of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, in the name of the Parent Borrower, to be maintained for the benefit of the Foreign Issuing Lenders and Lenders with a Foreign Credit Commitment (such deposited amount, the “Cash Cover”). Such account shall be an interest bearing account (subject to Section 2.6(b)(v), with the amount of interest to be determined by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in accordance with its standard business practice) in the name of the Parent Borrower and such account shall be pledged to the Administrative Agent on the basis of a pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower.

(v) If the term on any Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument extends beyond the Foreign Trade Maturity Date or other termination of this Agreement, the applicable Borrower shall, on the earlier of the Foreign Trade Maturity Date or the date of such other termination of this Agreement, either (A) cause such Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument to be surrendered for cancellation to the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender or (B) provide Cash Cover (or other credit support reasonably satisfactory) to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Dollar Equivalent of the Face Amount of such Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument. Upon notice to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent of the termination,

reduction or expiration (without any pending drawing) of such Foreign Credit Instrument or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument issued by such Foreign Issuing Lender, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall release the whole or relevant part of the Cash Cover within three Business Days of the relevant date of termination, reduction or expiration, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall use Cash Cover to promptly reimburse any Foreign Issuing Lender honoring any Foreign Credit Instrument.

(p) Fees; Termination.

(i) Foreign Credit Commitment Fee. The Parent Borrower agrees to pay (or to cause a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to pay) to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, for the account of each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment, a commitment fee (the “Foreign Credit Commitment Fee”) which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of each Foreign Credit Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Foreign Credit Commitments terminate. Accrued Foreign Credit Commitment Fees shall be paid quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Foreign Credit Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. Foreign Credit Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(ii) Foreign Credit Instrument Fee. The Parent Borrower agrees to pay (or to cause a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to pay) to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, for the account of each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment, a participation fee (the “Foreign Credit Instrument Fee”) with respect to its participation in Foreign Credit Instruments and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily Face Amount of each such Foreign Credit Instrument and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument outstanding (i.e. unexpired and not terminated) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Foreign Credit Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any participation risk with respect to Foreign Credit Instruments and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments issued hereunder. Accrued Foreign Credit Instrument Fees shall be paid quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Foreign Credit Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. Foreign Credit Instrument Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(iii) Foreign Credit Fronting Fee. With respect to each issuance of a Foreign Credit Instrument requested by a Borrower, such Borrower shall pay, in arrears for each calendar quarter in accordance with clause (vi) below, a fronting fee in the amount of 0.125% per annum on the Dollar Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument (the “Foreign Credit Fronting Fee”). With respect to any such calculation, clause (i) above shall apply mutatis mutandis.

(iv) Foreign Credit Handling Fee. Each Borrower shall, with respect to the issuance or amendment of any Foreign Credit Instrument by a Foreign Issuing Lender, pay to such Foreign Issuing Lender, quarterly in arrears in accordance with clause (vi) below, a handling fee of $150 with respect to each Foreign Credit Instrument so issued, and $100 with respect to each Foreign Credit Instrument so amended, by such Foreign Issuing Lender during the previous calendar quarter (the “Foreign Credit Handling Fee”).

(v) Other Fees and Expenses. Each Borrower shall, within three Business Days following written demand from a Foreign Issuing Lender that has issued a Foreign Credit Instrument for such Borrower, reimburse such Foreign Issuing Lender for all reasonable costs (including internal costs) and expenses (including legal fees) incurred by such Lender and evidenced to such Borrower in connection with the handling of any claims made against such Lender under any Foreign Credit Instrument issued by it.

(vi) Payment of Foreign Credit Fees. Each Foreign Issuing Lender shall notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in writing about the amount of all Foreign Credit Handling Fees payable by any Borrower with respect to each previous calendar quarter not later than on the fifth Business Day of each calendar quarter. In the case of each Foreign Issuing Lender, the notification needs to include only the sum of all such fees payable to such Lender and the respective amounts owing from each Borrower. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall calculate the Foreign Credit Commitment Fee, the Foreign Credit Instrument Fee and the Foreign Credit Fronting Fee payable by the Borrowers with respect to the previous calendar quarter. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall, not later than the seventh Business Day of each calendar quarter, inform the Parent Borrower in writing about the amount of the Foreign Credit Commitment Fee, Foreign Credit Instrument Fee and the Foreign Credit Fronting Fee payable with respect to the previous quarter and the aggregate amount of the Foreign Credit Handling Fee, as notified to it by the Foreign Issuing Lenders pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (vii), and the Parent Borrower shall pay (or shall cause the relevant Borrower to pay) such amounts to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent for distribution to the Foreign Issuing Lenders and the applicable Lenders not later than the fifth Business Day following the receipt by the Parent Borrower of the notification from the Foreign Trade Facility Agent.

Section 2.6(o)(v) shall apply mutatis mutandis.

(q) Cancellation.

(i) The Parent Borrower may, by giving to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, not less than 15 days’ prior written notice, cancel the whole or any part (being a minimum of $10,000,000) of the then unused Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments and/or the Foreign Credit Commitments without premium or penalty (it being understood and agreed that any cancellation or termination of the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments and/or Foreign Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.6(q) shall be done on a pro rata basis); provided that a notice of termination of the unused Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments and/or the Foreign Credit Commitments delivered by the Parent Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness or closing of other credit facilities, debt financings or Dispositions, in which case such notice may be revoked or the date specified therein extended by the Parent Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(ii) If any Foreign Issuing Lender claims a payment or indemnification from any Borrower under Section 2.17, the Parent Borrower may, within 30 days thereafter and by not less than 15 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, cancel such Foreign Issuing Lender’s unused Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment whereupon such Foreign Issuing Lender shall cease to be obliged to issue further Foreign Credit Instruments and its unused Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment shall be reduced to zero. The remaining amount of such Foreign Issuing Lender’s Commitment shall be cancelled automatically in whole, or, as the case may be, in part with the receipt by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent of the Utilization Reduction Notice(s) with respect to the Foreign Credit Instruments issued by such Foreign Issuing Lender and still outstanding.

(iii) Any notice of cancellation given by the Parent Borrower pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date upon which such cancellation is to be made and the amount of such cancellation; provided, however, that any such notice of cancellation delivered by the Parent Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness or closing of other credit facilities, debt financings or Dispositions, in which case such notice may be revoked or the date specified therein extended by the Parent Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(iv) Cancelled Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments cannot be reinstated and cancelled Foreign Credit Commitments cannot be reinstated.

(r) Reports. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall send to the Foreign Issuing Lenders, Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments, the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, via e-mail to the addresses and persons notified for this purpose by such Persons to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, (i) on each Business Day, a report (the “Daily Report”) (A) stating the Dollar Equivalent for all outstanding Foreign Credit Instruments as determined for such Business Day, (B) listing, for each Foreign Issuing Lender, as of such Business Day, the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding Foreign Credit Instruments issued by such Foreign Issuing Lender and the percentage of each such Foreign Issuing Lender’s utilized Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment, and (C) containing the further information about the utilization of the Foreign Trade Facility as specified on Schedule 2.6(r), (ii) on each Business Day, a daily activity report of the previous Business Day, in a form as substantially set out in Schedule 2.6(r) and (iii) not later than the fifth Business Day of each calendar month, a report stating all overdue Foreign Credit Instruments and all Foreign Credit Instruments falling due within such month and the following calendar month. The Parent Borrower and each Foreign Issuing Lender shall inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent by 5:00 p.m., Düsseldorf time, on the fifth Business Day following receipt of any such report if it does not agree with any information contained in such report.

(s) Unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements. Each Foreign Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent of any Foreign Credit Disbursement of such Foreign Issuing Lender that has not been reimbursed by or on behalf of the relevant Borrower and shall include in such notice (i) the date of the Foreign Credit Disbursement, (ii) the name of the relevant Borrower and (iii) the amount (including the currency) of such Foreign Credit Disbursement and the Dollar Equivalent thereof as calculated by such Foreign Issuing Lender in accordance with this Agreement.

(t) Additional Foreign Issuing Lenders. Upon notice to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments), the Parent Borrower may, designate additional Foreign Issuing Lenders to provide

additional Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments hereunder and/or designate existing Foreign Issuing Lenders to provide an increase to its existing Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment hereunder. No Person shall have any obligation hereunder to become a Foreign Issuing Lender or to provide any such additional or increased Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment. The Foreign Issuing Lender or other Person that in its sole discretion agrees to provide any such increased or additional Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment shall enter into a Foreign Issuing Lender Joinder Agreement with completions reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Parent Borrower. No such designation shall be made to (i) the Parent Borrower or the Parent Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (ii) a natural person. Upon consummation of any such Foreign Issuing Lender Joinder Agreement, Schedule 1.1A shall be deemed revised to reflect the applicable Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment added pursuant to such Foreign Issuing Lender Joinder Agreement.

Section 2.7. Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan (other than any Incremental Term Loan) to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the applicable currency most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Loan denominated in a Qualified Global Currency; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the relevant Borrower by wiring the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Domestic Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.5(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Lender. Any funding of Incremental Term Loans shall be made pursuant to such procedures as shall be agreed to by the Parent Borrower, the relevant Incremental Term Lenders and the Administrative Agent.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount in the required currency. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and such Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon in such currency, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

Section 2.8. Interest Elections.

(a) Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Loan Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, a Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a

Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Borrower may not (i) elect to convert the currency in which any Loans are denominated, (ii) elect to convert Qualified Global Currency Loans from Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans, (iii) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans that does not comply with Section 2.2(d), (iv) elect to convert any ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans that would result in the number of Eurocurrency Borrowings exceeding the maximum number of Eurocurrency Borrowings permitted under Section 2.2(c), (v) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans unless the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Eurocurrency Loans (including any Eurocurrency Loans made to such Borrower in the same currency on the date that such Interest Period is to begin) to which such Interest Period will apply complies with the requirements as to minimum principal amount set forth in Section 2.2(c) or (vi) elect to convert or continue any Swingline Borrowings.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.3 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of Domestic Revolving Loans or Global Revolving Loans of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the relevant Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2 and paragraph (a) of this Section: (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies; (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election. If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

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

(e) If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Qualified Foreign Global Currency prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Loan having an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Parent Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing denominated in Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) no Borrowing denominated in a Qualified Global Currency having an Interest Period in excess of one month may be made or continued.

Section 2.9. Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) (i) The Term Loan Commitments shall terminate on the Effective Date after the funding of the Initial Term Loans on the Effective Date, (ii) the Domestic Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date, (iii) the Global Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Global Revolving Maturity Date and (iv) the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments and the Foreign Credit Commitments shall terminate on the Foreign Trade Maturity Date.

(b) The Parent Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments (other than Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments) of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000, (ii) the Parent Borrower shall not terminate or reduce (A) the Domestic Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Domestic Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.12, the Domestic Revolving Exposure would exceed the total Domestic Revolving Commitments, (B) the Global Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Global Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.12, the Global Revolving Exposure would exceed the total Global Revolving Commitments, or (C) the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments or the Foreign Credit Commitments if the Total Foreign Trade Exposure would exceed (1) the total Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments or (2) the total Foreign Credit Commitments and (iii) each reduction of Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments and the Foreign Credit Commitments shall be made in accordance with Section 2.6(q).

(c) The Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section, at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Parent Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Parent Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness or closing of other credit facilities, debt financings or Dispositions, in which case such notice may be revoked or the date specified therein extended by the Parent Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

Section 2.10. Evidence of Debt.

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

(b) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 9.4(c) and a subaccount for each Lender in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder (whether or not evidenced by a promissory note), the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal and/or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall maintain records in which it shall record all relevant details about each Foreign Credit Instrument issued hereunder and, upon the request of the

Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall make such records (or copies thereof) available to the Administrative Agent.

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

(d) Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a promissory note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each such promissory note shall (i) in the case of Domestic Revolving Loans, be in the form of Exhibit J (a “Domestic Revolving Note”), (ii) in the case of Global Revolving Loans, be in the form of Exhibit K (a “Global Revolving Note”), (iii) in the case of Swingline Loans, be in the form of Exhibit L (a “Swingline Note”), and (iv) in the case of Term Loans, be in the form of Exhibit M (a “Term Note”). Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

Section 2.11. Repayment of Loans.

(b) The Parent Borrower shall repay Incremental Term Loans in consecutive installments (which shall be no more frequent than quarterly) as specified in the Incremental Facility Activation Notice pursuant to which such Incremental Term Loans were made; provided that the weighted average life of each Incremental Term Loan shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life of the other previously existing Term Loans.

(c) The Parent Borrower shall repay (i) the then unpaid principal amount of the Domestic Revolving Loans on the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date and (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last Business Day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Borrowing of Domestic Revolving Loans is made, the Parent Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

(d) Each Borrower shall repay the then unpaid principal amount of the Global Revolving Loans on the Global Revolving Maturity Date.

Section 2.12. Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section.

(b) If on any date any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Parent Borrower shall, within ten Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, apply an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Net Proceeds, first, to prepay Term Loans and, second, (after the Term Loans have been paid in full) to the Domestic Revolving Loans and the Global Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis (without a corresponding permanent reduction in the aggregate Domestic Revolving Commitments or the aggregate Global Revolving Commitments); provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of the term Prepayment Event, if the Parent Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect that the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries intend to apply the Net Proceeds from such event (“Reinvestment Net Proceeds”), within 360 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds, to make Permitted Acquisitions or Investments permitted by Section 6.5 or acquire real property, equipment or other assets to be used in the business of the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries, and certifying that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment or Commitment reduction shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of such event except to the extent of any Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of such 360-day period, at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds that have not been so applied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the date during any fiscal year of the Parent Borrower on which the aggregate gross proceeds (inclusive of amounts of the type described in the first parenthetical of Section 6.6(d)) from Dispositions pursuant to Section 6.6(d) received during such fiscal year exceed 15% of Total Consolidated Assets, the Net Proceeds from each subsequent Prepayment Event occurring during such fiscal year resulting from Dispositions pursuant to Section 6.6(d) (and a ratable amount of Net Proceeds from any Prepayment Event that first causes the aforementioned 15% threshold to be exceeded, which ratable amount shall be determined by reference to a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the portion of the gross proceeds from such Prepayment Event representing the excess above such 15% threshold and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate gross proceeds from such Prepayment Event) may not be treated as Reinvestment Net Proceeds.

(c) If on any Determination Date relating to the Global Revolving Facility, the Total Global Exposure exceeds the total Global Revolving Commitments by more than $500,000, the Parent Borrower shall, without notice or demand, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, prepay (or cause the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to prepay) the Borrowings of Global Revolving Loans (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.5(j)) in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the Total Global Exposure does not exceed the total Global Revolving Commitments. If on any Determination Date relating to the Domestic Revolving Facility, the Total Domestic Exposure exceeds the total Domestic Revolving Commitments, the Parent Borrower shall, without notice or demand, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, prepay (or cause the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to prepay) the Borrowings of Domestic Revolving Loans or Swingline Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.5(j)) in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the Total Domestic Exposure does not exceed the total Domestic Revolving Commitments.

(d) A Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy promptly thereafter) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or 11:00 a.m., London time, as applicable), three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Domestic Revolving Commitments or the Global Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.9, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked (or the date specified therein extended) if such notice of termination is revoked (or the date specified therein extended) in accordance with Section 2.9. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.2, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment.

Section 2.13. Certain Payment Application Matters.

(a) Each repayment or prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. It is understood that, in the case of Global Revolving Loans, the relevant Borrower may select the particular currency of Loans to be prepaid, and such prepayment shall then be applied ratably to such Loans. Repayments and prepayments of Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

(b) Any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans shall be allocated pro rata among the Initial Term Loans and any Incremental Term Loans based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class. Any optional prepayment of Term Loans shall be allocated as directed by the Parent Borrower to the Initial Term Loans and/or the Incremental Term Loans. Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(c) Each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied to the installments, first to any remaining scheduled installments due prior to the second anniversary of the date of such prepayment (applied pro rata to such remaining installments) and, second, to the remaining scheduled

installments due on or after the second anniversary of the date of such prepayment (applied pro rata to such remaining installments). Any optional prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied to the installments of the Term Loans as directed by the Parent Borrower.

Section 2.14. Fees.

(a) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each relevant Lender (i) a commitment fee (the “Domestic Revolving Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Domestic Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date and (ii) a commitment fee (the “Global Revolving Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Global Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Global Revolving Maturity Date. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date and the Global Revolving Maturity Date, as applicable, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. Domestic Revolving Commitment Fees and Global Revolving Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees (x) in respect of the Domestic Revolving Commitments, the Domestic Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Domestic Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose) and (y) in respect of the Global Revolving Commitments, the Global Revolving Commitments of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Global Revolving Loans of such Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, the Foreign Credit Commitment Fee is set forth in Section 2.6(p)(i).

(b) Each Borrower agrees to pay:

(i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Domestic Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate as interest on Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Domestic Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure;

(ii) to the applicable Issuing Lender a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Domestic Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder; and

(iii) to the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender and the other Lenders, the fees set forth in Section 2.6(p).

Participation fees and fronting fees pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date;

provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Domestic Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Domestic Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.6(p), any other fees payable to the applicable Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For the purposes of calculating the average daily amount of the LC Exposure for any period under this Section 2.14(b), the average daily amount of the Alternative Currency LC Exposure for such period shall be calculated by multiplying (x) the average daily balance of each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (expressed in the currency in which such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is denominated) by (y) the Exchange Rate for each such Alternative Currency in effect on the last Business Day of such period or by such other reasonable method that the Administrative Agent deems appropriate.

(c) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and BAS, for their own respective accounts, fees payable in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter.

(d) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter.

(e) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times specified in the Deutsche Bank Fee Letter.

(f) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Lender, Foreign Issuing Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.6(p), fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

Section 2.15. Interest.

(a) ABR Loans shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) Eurocurrency Loans shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest (or premium, if any) on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section (or, in the case of amounts denominated in a Qualified Foreign Global Currency due under the Global Revolving Facility, the rate that would apply to Loans in such currency pursuant to clause (i) above), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Domestic Revolving Commitments or the Global Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or

prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Domestic Revolving Availability Period or Global Revolving Availability Period, as applicable), accrued interest (and premium, if any) on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on Bank of America’s “prime rate”, and interest in respect of Sterling-denominated Loans, shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Parent Borrower or for any other reason, the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Parent Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Parent Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Parent Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by any Person), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, under Section 2.5(c), 2.14(b) or 2.15(c) or under Article VII. The Parent Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments of all of the Lenders and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

Section 2.16. Alternate Rate of Interest.

If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

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

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

(c) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing and in the currency in which such Loans are to be denominated are not generally available in the relevant market;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and the relevant Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies

the Parent Borrower and the relevant Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, then, in the case of the relevant Facility, any request by a Borrower for a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the affected Type or in the affected currency, or a conversion to or continuation of a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the affected Type or in the affected currency, pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.8, shall be deemed rescinded; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

Section 2.17. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) impose on any Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender or the London (or other relevant) interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit, Foreign Credit Instrument or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the net cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest, premium or otherwise), then each relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

(c) A certificate of a Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and computation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Person or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the relevant Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Such Borrower shall pay such Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. All amounts payable by any Borrower pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be deemed to constitute interest expense in respect of the Loans.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Person’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Person notifies such Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Person’s intention to claim compensation therefor;

provided that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.18. Break Funding Payments.

In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Domestic Revolving Loan, Global Revolving Loan or Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.12(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Parent Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21, then, in any such event, the relevant Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the relevant market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and computation of any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the relevant Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and shall be so delivered as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Lender obtains actual knowledge of such amount. Such Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.19. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes; provided that if a Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and indemnify the Lender from and against any Other Taxes and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto.

(c) Each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and computation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and shall be so delivered as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, obtains actual knowledge of such amount.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender that is not a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement either:

(A) two duly completed and signed original copies of either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (relating to such Non-U.S. Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from or reduction of withholding of United States federal income taxes on all amounts to be received by such Non-U.S. Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other credit documents), or successor and related applicable forms, as the case may be (including, where applicable any such forms required to be provided to certify to such exemption on behalf of such Non-U.S. Lender’s beneficial owners).

(B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not a “Bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and that does not comply with the requirements of clause (A) hereof, (x) a statement in the form of Exhibit D (and any similar statements required to certify to the exemption of its beneficial owners) or such other form of statement as shall be reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower from time to time to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender (and, where applicable, its beneficial owners) is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of United States federal income taxes under Code Section 871(h) or 881(c), and (y) two duly completed and signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or successor and related applicable forms (including, where applicable, copies of such forms with respect to such entity’s beneficial owners).

Further, each Non-U.S. Lender agrees (i) to deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and if applicable, the assigning Lender two further duly completed and signed original copies of such Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as the case may be (and, where applicable, any such forms on behalf of its beneficial owners) or successor and related applicable forms, on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete and promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change

from the most recent form(s) previously delivered by it to the Parent Borrower in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations, (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that delivers a statement in the form of Exhibit D (or such other form of statement as shall have been requested by the Parent Borrower), to deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and if applicable, the assigning Lender, such statement (and where applicable, any such statements from its beneficial owners) on the two year anniversary of the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender became a party to this Agreement and to deliver promptly to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, such additional statements and forms as shall be reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower from time to time, and (iii) to notify promptly the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent if it (or, as applicable, its beneficial owners) is no longer able to deliver, or if it is required to withdraw or cancel, any form of statement previously delivered by it pursuant to this Section 2.19(e). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Non-U.S. Lender shall be required to provide any forms, certification or documentation which it is not legally entitled or able to deliver.

(f) Each Lender which is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver to Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and if applicable the assigning or participating Lender) two copies of a statement which shall contain the address of such Lender’s office or place of business in the United States, which shall be signed by an authorized officer of such Lender, together with two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) unless it establishes to the satisfaction of the Parent Borrower that it is otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other applicable withholding tax. Each such Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and Administrative Agent two further duly completed and signed forms and statements (or successor form) at or before the time any such form or statement becomes obsolete.

(g) Each Non-U.S. Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Borrower from and against any Taxes imposed by or on behalf of the United States or any taxing jurisdiction thereof, penalties, additions to tax, fines, interest or other liabilities, costs or losses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred or payable by such Borrower as a result of the failure of such Borrower to comply with its obligations to deduct or withhold any Taxes imposed by or on behalf of the United States or any taxing jurisdiction thereof (including penalties, additions to tax, fines or interest on such Taxes) from any payments made pursuant to this Agreement to such Non-U.S. Lender or the Administrative Agent which failure resulted from (i) such Borrower’s reliance on Exhibit F pursuant to Section 2.19(e) or (ii) such Lender being a “conduit entity” within the meaning of Treasury Reg. Section 1.881-3 or any successor provision thereto; and, provided additionally, that, without limitation, no amounts shall be due and owing to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.19 if either provisions (i) or (ii) are applicable.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by a Borrower, it shall promptly pay such refund, together with any other amounts paid by such Borrower in connection with such refunded Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, to such Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in obtaining such refund; provided, however, that each Borrower agrees to promptly return such refund to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender as the case may be, if it receives notice from the Administrative Agent or applicable Lender that such Administrative Agent or Lender is required to repay such refund. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any Person.

(i) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in the rate of the imposition, deduction or withholding of any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax under the laws of the jurisdiction in which a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized or engaged in business, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) shall deliver to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or the relevant Governmental Authority, in the manner and at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without the imposition, deduction or withholding of such Indemnified Tax or Other Tax or at a reduced rate; provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in its reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice its commercial or legal position or require disclosure of information it considers confidential or proprietary.

Section 2.20. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, premium, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements or Foreign Credit Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.17, 2.18 or 2.19, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, local time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period ending on such Business Day. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, each such payment (other than (i) principal of and interest on Qualified Global Currency Loans and LC Disbursements denominated in an Alternative Currency, which shall be made in the applicable Qualified Global Currency or, except as otherwise specified in Section 2.5(e), Alternative Currency, as the case may be and (ii) payments in respect of the Foreign Credit Instruments and Foreign Credit Disbursements thereunder, which shall be made in the currency applicable to such Foreign Credit Instrument) shall be made in Dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements and Foreign Credit Disbursements, interest, premium and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements and Foreign Credit Disbursements then due hereunder, and any premium then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements and Foreign Credit Disbursements, and any premium, then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest (or premium, if any) on any of its Domestic Revolving Loans, Global Revolving Loans, Term Loans, participations in LC Disbursements, participations in Swingline Loans or participations in Foreign Credit Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Domestic Revolving Loans, Global Revolving Loans, Term Loans, participations in LC Disbursements, participations in Swingline Loans and participations in Foreign Credit Disbursements and accrued interest (and premium, if any) thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Domestic Revolving Loans, the Global Revolving Loans, the Term Loans, participations in LC Disbursements, participations in Swingline Loans and participations in Foreign Credit Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest (and premium, if any) on their respective Domestic Revolving Loans, Global Revolving Loans, Term Loans, participations in LC Disbursements, participations in Swingline Loans and participations in Foreign Credit Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or participations in Foreign Credit Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each relevant Lender severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error).

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

Section 2.21. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.17, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, 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 Section 2.17 or 2.19, 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 (i) any Lender (other than a Foreign Issuing Lender) requests compensation under Section 2.17, (ii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, (iii) any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder or (iv) any Lender becomes a “Non-Consenting Lender” (as defined below), then the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender (other than a Foreign Issuing Lender) and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender (other than a Foreign Issuing Lender) to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.4), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (A) the Parent Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in the case of an assignment of a Foreign Credit Commitment, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, participations in Foreign Credit Disbursements, participations in LC Disbursements and participations Swingline Loans, accrued interest (and premium, if any) thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or such Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (C) in the event of a replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender, in order for the Parent Borrower to be entitled to replace such a Lender, such replacement must take place no later than 120 days after the date the Non-Consenting Lender shall have notified the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its failure to agree to any requested consent, waiver or amendment. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling a Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. In the event that (x) the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested the Lenders to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or to agree to any amendment thereto, (y) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 2.6(b) or Section 9.2 and (z) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender”.

Section 2.22. Change in Law.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, after the date hereof, (a) any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, or any Global Revolving Lender to make Global Revolving Loans denominated in a Qualified Global Currency, or any Foreign Issuing Lender to issue any Foreign Credit Instruments, or (b) there shall have occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates that would make it impracticable for any Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit denominated in such Alternative Currency for the account of a Borrower, or any Global Revolving Lender to make Global Revolving Loans denominated in a Qualified Global Currency, or any Foreign Issuing Lender to issue any Foreign Credit Instruments, then by prompt written notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (i) such Issuing Lender may declare that Letters of Credit will not thereafter be issued by it in the affected

Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies, whereupon the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies shall be deemed (for the duration of such declaration) not to constitute an Alternative Currency for purposes of the issuance of Letters of Credit by such Issuing Lender, (ii) such Global Revolving Lender may declare that Global Revolving Loans will not thereafter be made by it in the affected Qualified Global Currency or Qualified Global Currencies, whereupon the affected Qualified Global Currency or Qualified Global Currencies shall be deemed (for the duration of such declaration) not to constitute an a Qualified Global Currency for purposes of the making of Global Revolving Loans by such Global Revolving Lender, and (iii) such Foreign Issuing Lender may declare that such affected Foreign Credit Instruments will not thereafter be issued by it and the commitment of such Foreign Issuing Lender to issue such affected Foreign Credit Instruments shall forthwith be cancelled (for the duration of such declaration).

Section 2.23. Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers.

(a) Subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Global Revolving Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Parent Borrower may designate any Foreign Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary, the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent and upon such delivery such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility and a party to this Agreement until the Parent Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility at a time when any Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding thereunder or any Letters of Credit issued for the account of Such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding (which shall not have been cash collateralized in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.5(j)); provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s right to make further borrowings under the Global Revolving Facility. The Global Revolving Lenders agree that each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower identified in Part A of Schedule 2.23 is an acceptable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility.

(b) Subject to the consent of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Issuing Lenders and all of the Lenders with a Foreign Credit Commitment (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Parent Borrower may designate any Foreign Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility by delivery to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary, the Parent Borrower, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent and upon such delivery such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility and a party to this Agreement until the Parent Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility at a time when any Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding thereunder or any Foreign Credit Instruments issued for the account of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding (which shall not have been cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.6(o)(iv)), provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate such

Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s right to request further Foreign Credit Instruments or other extensions of credit under the Foreign Trade Facility.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be liable for the Obligations of any other Loan Party.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Global Revolving Lenders of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower added pursuant to Section 2.23(a), and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly notify each Foreign Issuing Lender and Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower added pursuant to Section 2.23(b).

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Parent Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that:

Section 3.1. Organization; Powers.

Each of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, except, in the case of Subsidiaries, where the failure to do so, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted in all material respects and (c) except where the failure to do so, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Foreign Issuing Lenders and the Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments shall have the right, subject to the consent of the Parent Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), to appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Foreign Issuing Lenders and the Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Foreign Trade Facility Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Foreign Trade Facility Agent may on behalf of the Foreign Issuing Lenders and the Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments, appoint a successor Foreign Trade Facility Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall instead be made by or to each Foreign Issuing Lender and each Lender with a Foreign Credit Commitment and the Issuing Lenders directly, until such time as the Foreign Issuing Lenders and the Lenders with Foreign Credit Commitments appoint a successor Foreign Trade Facility Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Foreign Trade Facility Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Foreign Trade Facility Agent, and the retiring Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Parent Borrower to a successor Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Parent Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Foreign Trade Facility Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Foreign Trade Facility Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Foreign Trade Facility Agent was acting as Foreign Trade Facility Agent.

Each Lender, each Foreign Issuing Lender and each Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 8.9. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan, Foreign Trade Exposure or LC Exposure shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Parent Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, Foreign Trade Exposure, LC Exposure and all other Obligations (other than obligations under Hedging Agreements or Specified Cash Management Agreements to which the Administrative Agent is not a party) that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Foreign Issuing Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Foreign Issuing Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.4(i) and (j), 2.10 and 9.3) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Foreign Issuing Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

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 ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM.

Section 9.2. Waivers; Amendments.

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

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document; provided that no such agreement shall:

(b) The Parent Borrower shall indemnify each Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (“Losses”), including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan, Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument, as applicable), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such Losses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time; provided that (i) in the case of amounts owing to any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, in each case in its capacity as such, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based solely upon its share of the sum of Domestic Revolving Exposures, unused Domestic Revolving Commitments, Global Revolving Exposures and unused Global Revolving Commitments at the time and (ii) in the case of amounts owing to any Foreign Issuing Lender, in its capacity as such, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based solely upon its share of the sum of the unused Foreign Credit Commitments at the time.

Section 9.4. Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b),

114

participations in Letters of Credit, Foreign Credit Instruments and Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than (1) $5,000,000 in the case of an assignment of Revolving Loans, (2) $5,000,000 in the case of an assignment of Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans and (3) $5,000,000 in the case of an assignment in respect of the Foreign Trade Facility unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Parent Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;

(ii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Parent Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of any Domestic Revolving Commitment or Global Revolving Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of the Commitment subject to such assignment, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender;

(C) the consent of the Issuing Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment (other than any assignment to the Administrative Agent) after the Effective Date that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding) if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of the Commitment subject to such assignment, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender;

115

(D) the consent of the Foreign Issuing Lenders (other than those Foreign Issuing Lenders who are Foreign Issuing Lenders only with respect to those Existing Foreign Credit Instruments set forth in Part B of Schedule 2.6(a)) in their sole discretion shall be required for any assignment (other than any assignment to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent) after the Effective Date that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Foreign Credit Instruments or Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments (whether or not then outstanding);

(E) the consent of the Swingline Lender (such consent not to unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Domestic Revolving Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Domestic Revolving Commitment, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and

(F) the consent of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for all assignments in respect of any Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments or Foreign Credit Commitment.

(iii) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(iv) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Parent Borrower or any of the Parent Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(v) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 9.3 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Parent Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Parent Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans, Foreign Trade Exposure and LC Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may

116

treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Parent Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Notes. If after giving effect to any Assignment and Assumption, the relevant assignor no longer has any Commitments with respect to the Commitments being assigned, such assignor shall, upon the request of the Parent Borrower, return each Note (if any) with respect to each such Commitment to the Parent Borrower marked “cancelled”.

(e) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or any Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Parent Borrower or any of the Parent Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Foreign Trade Exposure, LC Exposure and/or Swingline Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the other Lenders and the Issuing Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in Section 9.2(c) that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Parent Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided that, in the case of Section 2.19, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.8 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.20(c) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Limitation on Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.17 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Parent Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless the Parent Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Parent Borrower, to comply with Section 2.19(e) as though it were a Lender.

(g) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) 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 shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic

117

Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act

(i) Resignation as Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank of America may, (i) upon thirty days’ notice to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Lender and/or (ii) upon thirty days’ notice to the Parent Borrower, resign as Swingline Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, the Parent Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Parent Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender and all LC Exposure with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make ABR Loans or fund risk participations in unreimbursed amounts pursuant to Section 2.5(d)). If Bank of America resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Alternate Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.4(c). Upon the appointment of a successor Issuing Lender and/or Swingline Lender, (1) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (2) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.

(j) Assignments by Foreign Issuing Lenders. Any Foreign Issuing Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment to issue future Foreign Credit Instruments (and related rights and obligations with respect to such Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the consent of the Parent Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment and to the consent of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent an assignment agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee in the aggregate amount of $3,500 payable to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any such assignment. The assignee, if it is not already a Foreign Issuing Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. No such assignment by a Foreign Issuing Lender shall be made to (i) the Parent Borrower or any of the Parent Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (ii) a natural person. Upon consummation of any such assignment, Schedule 1.1A shall be deemed revised to reflect the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitments after giving effect to such assignment. From and after the effective date specified in each such assignment, the assignee Foreign Issuing Lender thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment assigned by such assignment, have the rights and obligations of a Foreign Issuing Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Foreign Issuing Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the Foreign Credit Instrument Issuing Commitment assigned by such assignment, be released from its obligations under this Agreement but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 9.3 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment and shall continue to have the rights and obligations of a Foreign Issuing Lender with respect to any Foreign Credit Instruments issued by it prior to the time of such assignment.

118

Section 9.5. Survival.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit and Foreign Credit Instruments, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest (or premium, if any) on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 9.3 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, the Foreign Credit Instruments or the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 9.6. Counterparts; Integration.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Document and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to any Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto (including the Lenders) and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.7. Severability.

Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.8. Right of Setoff.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of a Borrower against any of and all the obligations of a Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

119

Section 9.9. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York (including Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law).

(b) Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that any Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, (i) any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court and (iii) any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.1. In addition, each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower agrees that service of process may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Parent Borrower at its address for notices in Section 9.1. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 9.10. Headings.

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

Section 9.11. Confidentiality.

Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Related Parties, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority or rating agency, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of

120

its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in Hedging Agreements or other swap agreements relating to this Agreement or such counterparty’s professional advisor, (h) with the consent of the Parent Borrower, and (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Borrower relating to a Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to any Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such Borrower; provided that such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 9.12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 9.13. Release of Collateral.

(a) On the first date (the “Release Date”) on which the corporate family rating of the Parent Borrower from Xxxxx’x is “Baa3” or better and the corporate credit rating of the Parent Borrower from S&P is “BBB-“ or better, so long as no Event of Default exists on such date, all Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Loan Parties. At the request and sole expense of any Loan Party following any such release, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to such Loan Party any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent under any Security Document, and execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

(b) If any of the Collateral shall be Disposed of by any Loan Party in a transaction permitted by this Agreement, then the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Loan Party, shall execute and deliver to such Loan Party all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document on such Collateral. At the request and sole expense of the Parent Borrower, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document in the event that such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Wholly Owned Subsidiary pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted by this Agreement and if, as a result of such transaction, the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries own less than 75% of the outstanding voting Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor. In addition, at the request and sole expense of the Parent Borrower, not more than twice during the term of this Agreement, a Subsidiary Guarantor and the

121

Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from their respective obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document in the event that a portion of the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor is Disposed of in a transaction expressly permitted by Section 6.6(d) (but which does not satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence); provided that the aggregate Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed period of four consecutive fiscal quarters for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.1 (in each case determined at the time of such transaction) that is attributable to the Subsidiaries released from their obligations hereunder pursuant to this sentence shall not exceed $40,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Subsidiary be released from its obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Security Document, in the event that such Subsidiary is a guarantor of any other Indebtedness of any Loan Party.

(c) At such time as the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations, the Foreign Credit Reimbursement Obligations and the other Obligations shall have been paid in full, the Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit or Foreign Credit Instruments shall be outstanding (or shall have been fully cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.5(j) or Section 2.6(o)(iv), as applicable), the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document, and each Security Document and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party thereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Loan Parties. At the request and sole expense of any Loan Party following any such termination, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to such Loan Party any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent under any Security Document, and execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

Section 9.14. Judgment Currency.

(a) The Borrowers’ obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in a specified currency (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the applicable Agent or a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to such Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Borrowers covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

122

(c) For purposes of determining any rate of exchange or currency equivalent for this Section, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

Section 9.15. USA Patriot Act Notice.

Each Lender hereby notifies each Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) and other applicable foreign Requirements of Law, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Act or such other Requirements of Law, as applicable.

Section 9.16. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Parent Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that: (a)(i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and BAS, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and BAS, on the other hand, (ii) the Parent Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (iii) the Parent Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b)(i) the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and BAS each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Parent Borrower or any of Subsidiaries or any other Person and (ii) neither the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent nor BAS has any obligation to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and BAS and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and neither the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent nor BAS has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Parent Borrower hereby waives and releases, any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or BAS with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Section 9.17. Waiver of Notice of Termination.

Each party hereto that is also a party (in any capacity) to the Existing Credit Agreement hereby waives (in each of its capacities under the Existing Credit Agreement) compliance with the 15-day notice requirement contained in Section 2.6(p) of the Existing Credit Agreement, such waiver to be deemed to be effective when all of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 are satisfied or waived.

(a) Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by each Borrower when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of its Borrower Obligations (other than in respect of Excluded Taxes); provided, however, that the Parent Borrower’s guarantee obligations under this Section 2 shall be limited to the guarantee of the prompt and complete payment and performance by each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of its respective Borrower Obligations (other than in respect of Excluded Taxes).

(b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2.2).

(c) Each Guarantor agrees that the Borrower Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder.

(d) The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until all the Borrower Obligations and the obligations of each Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall have been satisfied by payment in full in cash, no Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument shall be outstanding (unless fully cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.5(j) or 2.6(o)(iii), as applicable, of the Credit Agreement) and the Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the Borrowers may be free from any Borrower Obligations.

(e) The obligations of each Guarantor here under are those of a primary obligor, and not merely as a surety, and are expressly and wholly independent of (i) the Guarantor Obligations of each other Guarantor and (ii) the Borrower’s Obligations. No payment made by any of the Guarantors or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party from any of the Guarantors or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of the payment of such Guarantor’s Obligation shall be deemed to modify, release or otherwise affect the liability of any other Guarantor hereunder, which shall, notwithstanding any such payment by such other Guarantor, remain liable for the Borrower Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Borrower Obligations are paid in full in cash, no Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument shall be outstanding and the Commitments are terminated. No partial payment of the Borrower Obligations made by the Borrower or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party from the Borrower by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time shall be deemed to modify, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall, notwithstanding any such partial payment by the Borrower, remain liable for the Borrower Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor

hereunder until the Borrower Obligations are paid in full in cash, no Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument shall be outstanding and the Commitments are terminated.

2.2 Right of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

2.3 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Borrower Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties by each Borrower on account of its respective Borrower Obligations are paid in full in cash, no Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument shall be outstanding (unless fully cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.5(j) or 2.6(o)(iii), as applicable, of the Credit Agreement) and the Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Borrower Obligations shall not have been paid in full in cash, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Borrower Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

2.4 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Borrower Obligations. Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Borrower Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party and any of the Borrower Obligations continued, and the Borrower Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, and the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Borrower Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Borrower Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto.

2.5 Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Borrower Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Borrower Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between any of the Borrowers and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2. Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon any of the Borrowers or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Borrower Obligations, except for such demands for payment and/or notices as are expressly specified in the Credit Agreement. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Borrower Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Borrower or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Borrower or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Borrower for the Borrower Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Borrower Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

2.6 Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Borrower Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

2.7 Payments. Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars at the office of the Administrative Agent located at Bank of America, N.A., Mail Code: NC1-001-04-39, One Independence Center, 000 X. Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx 00000-0000, attention of Xxxxx X. Xxxxx (Telecopy No. 000-000-0000, E-mail: xxxxx.x.xxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx).

SECTION 3. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST

Each Grantor hereby assigns and transfers to the Administrative Agent, and hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in, all Pledged Stock and to the extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds of the Pledged Stock now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by such Grantor or in which such Grantor now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest (collectively, the “Collateral”), as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of such Grantor’s Obligations.

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to induce the Lenders to make their respective extensions of credit to the Borrowers thereunder, each Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party that:

4.1 Title; No Other Liens. Except for the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and the other Liens permitted to exist on the Collateral by the Credit Agreement, such Grantor owns each item of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others. No effective financing statement or other public notice with respect to all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Agreement or as are permitted by the Credit Agreement.

4.2 Perfected First Priority Liens. The security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement (a) upon completion of the filings and other actions specified on Schedule 3 (which, in the case of all filings and other documents referred to on said Schedule, have been delivered to the Administrative Agent in completed and duly executed form) will constitute valid perfected security interests in all of the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantor and any Persons purporting to purchase any Collateral from such Grantor and (b) are prior to all other Liens on the Collateral in existence on the date hereof except for Liens permitted by the Credit Agreement which have priority over the Liens on the Collateral by operation of law.

4.3 Jurisdiction of Organization. On the date hereof, such Grantor’s jurisdiction of organization and organizational identification number (if any) from such jurisdiction are specified on Schedule 4.

4.4 Pledged Stock.

(a) The shares of Pledged Stock pledged by such Grantor hereunder constitute all the issued and outstanding shares of all classes of the Capital Stock of each Issuer owned by such Grantor or, in the case of Foreign Subsidiary Voting Stock, if less, 65% of the outstanding Foreign Subsidiary Voting Stock of each relevant Issuer.

(b) All the shares of the Pledged Stock have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.

(c) Such Grantor is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to, the Pledged Stock pledged by it hereunder.

(d) Except as previously disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent, none of the Pledged Stock consisting of partnership or limited liability company interests (i) is dealt in or traded on a securities exchange or in a securities market, (ii) by its terms expressly provides that it is a security governed by Article 8 of the UCC, (iii) is an investment company security, (iv) is held in a securities account or (v) constitutes a Security or a Financial Asset.

SECTION 5. COVENANTS

Each Grantor covenants and agrees with the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties that, from and after the date of this Agreement until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, no Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument shall be outstanding (unless fully cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.5(j) or 2.6(o)(iii), as applicable, of the Credit Agreement) and the Commitments shall have terminated:

5.1 Delivery of Certificated Securities. If any amount payable in excess of $5,000,000 under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any Certificated Security, such Certificated Security shall be immediately delivered to the Administrative Agent, duly indorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement.

5.2 Payment of Obligations. Such Grantor will pay and discharge or otherwise satisfy at or before maturity or before they become delinquent, as the case may be, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon or that could become a Lien upon the Collateral or in respect of income or profits therefrom, as well as all claims of any kind (including, without limitation, claims for labor, materials and supplies) against or that could become a Lien upon the Collateral, except that no such charge need be paid if the amount or validity thereof is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, reserves in conformity with GAAP with respect thereto have been provided on the books of such Grantor and such proceedings could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

5.3 Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest; Further Documentation.

(a) Such Grantor shall maintain the security interest created by this Agreement as a perfected security interest having at least the priority described in Section 4.2 and shall defend such security interest against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

(b) Such Grantor will furnish to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing any Collateral owned by such Grantor and such other reports in connection therewith as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

(c) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, and at the sole expense of such Grantor, such Grantor will promptly and duly execute and deliver, and have recorded, such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving

the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including, without limitation, (i) filing any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interests created hereby and (ii) taking any actions necessary to enable the Administrative Agent to obtain “control” (within the meaning of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code) of the Pledged Stock.

5.4 Changes in Name, etc. Such Grantor will not, except upon 15 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and delivery to the Administrative Agent of all additional executed financing statements and other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests provided for herein, (a) change its jurisdiction of organization from that referred to in Section 4.3 or (ii) change its name.

5.5 Notices. Such Grantor will advise the Administrative Agent promptly, in reasonable detail, of the occurrence of any event which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the validity, enforceability, perfection or priority of the security interests created hereby.

5.6 Pledged Stock.

(a) If such Grantor shall become entitled to receive or shall receive any stock certificate (including, without limitation, any certificate representing a stock dividend or a distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or any certificate issued in connection with any reorganization), option or rights in respect of the Capital Stock of any Issuer, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for, any shares of the Pledged Stock, or otherwise in respect thereof, such Grantor shall accept the same as the agent of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, hold the same in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and promptly (but not later than the next Collateral Date) deliver the same to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, if required, together with an undated stock power covering such certificate duly executed in blank by such Grantor and with, if the Administrative Agent so requests, signature guaranteed, to be held by the Administrative Agent, subject to the terms hereof, as additional collateral security for the Obligations. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon request of the Administrative Agent, any sums paid upon or in respect of the Pledged Stock upon the liquidation or dissolution of any Issuer and any distribution of capital made on or in respect of the Pledged Stock or distributed upon or with respect to the Pledged Stock pursuant to the recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of any Issuer or pursuant to the reorganization thereof, shall be paid over or delivered to the Administrative Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional collateral security for the Obligations. If any sums of money or property so paid or distributed in respect of the Pledged Stock shall be received by such Grantor, such Grantor shall, until such money or property is paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent if required by the immediately proceeding sentence, hold such money or property in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, as additional collateral security for the Obligations.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor will not (i) vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, any Issuer to issue any stock or other equity securities of any nature or to issue any other securities convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any stock or other equity securities of any nature of any Issuer (except pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement), (ii) sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Pledged Stock or Proceeds thereof (except pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted by the Credit

Agreement), (iii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, any of the Pledged Stock or Proceeds thereof, or any interest therein, except for the security interests created by this Agreement (except pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement) or (iv) enter into any agreement or undertaking restricting the right or ability of such Grantor or the Administrative Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Pledged Stock or Proceeds thereof (other than in anticipation of a Disposition of Pledged Stock in a transaction expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement).

(c) In the case of each Grantor which is an Issuer, such Issuer agrees that (i) it will be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Pledged Stock issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it, (ii) it will notify the Administrative Agent promptly (but not later than the next Collateral Date) in writing of the occurrence of any of the events described in Section 5.6(a) with respect to the Pledged Stock issued by it and (iii) the terms of Sections 6.1(c) and 6.5 shall apply to it, mutatis mutandis, with respect to all actions that may be required of it pursuant to Section 6.1(c) or 6.5 with respect to the Pledged Stock issued by it.

SECTION 6. REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

6.1 Pledged Stock. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.1(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive and use (free of the Lien under this Agreement) all cash dividends paid in respect of the Pledged Stock, to the extent not prohibited by the Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting and corporate or other organizational rights with respect to the Pledged Stock; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate or other organizational right exercised or other action taken in violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Stock and make application thereof to the Obligations in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine, and (ii) any or all of the Pledged Stock shall be registered in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee, and the Administrative Agent or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Pledged Stock at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Pledged Stock as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Stock upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other organizational structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Administrative Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Stock, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Stock with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Pledged Stock pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) to the extent required hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Stock directly to the Administrative Agent.

6.2 Proceeds to be Turned Over To Administrative Agent. In addition to the rights of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties specified in Section 6.1 with respect to dividends and payments in respect of Pledged Stock, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, at the request of the Administrative Agent, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds while held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.3.

6.3 Application of Proceeds. At such intervals as may be agreed upon by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Administrative Agent’s election, the Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of Proceeds constituting Collateral, whether or not held in any Collateral Account, and any proceeds of the guarantee set forth in Section 2, in payment of the Obligations in the following order:

First, to pay incurred and unpaid fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent under the Loan Documents;

Second, to pay incurred and unpaid fees and expenses of the Secured Parties under the Loan Documents;

Third, to the Administrative Agent, for application by it towards payment of amounts then due and owing and remaining unpaid in respect of the Obligations, pro rata among the Secured Parties according to the amounts of the Obligations then due and owing and remaining unpaid to the Secured Parties;

Fourth, to (i) the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, LC Disbursements, Foreign Credit Disbursements and any other amounts then due and owing and remaining unpaid in respect of the Obligations and (ii) cash collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit and Foreign Credit Instruments (unless already fully cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.5(j) or 2.6(o)(iii), as applicable, of the Credit Agreement), pro rata among the Secured Parties according to the amounts of the Obligations then held by the Secured Parties; provided that (a) if any LC Disbursement or Foreign Credit Disbursement shall occur under any Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument for which cash collateral has been provided in accordance herewith, then such cash collateral shall be applied to the extent thereof to reimburse such LC Disbursement or Foreign Credit Disbursement, as applicable, (b) if any Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument for which cash collateral has been provided in accordance herewith shall expire

without any pending drawing or terminate, then the cash collateral provided for such Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument, as applicable, shall be reallocated in accordance with the provisions of this Section in the order of priority determined under paragraphs First, Second, Third, Fourth and Fifth, as applicable, and (iii) if any Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument for which cash collateral has been provided in accordance herewith shall be amended to reduce the Face Amount thereof or if the Face Amount thereof shall otherwise be reduced in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument, and in either such event the remaining amount of cash collateral held for such Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument exceeds the amount of cash collateral required to be maintained in respect of such Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument in accordance with the Credit Agreement, then the excess amount of cash collateral held in accordance herewith for such Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument, as applicable, shall be reallocated in accordance with the provisions of this Section in the order of priority determined under paragraphs First, Second, Third, Fourth and Fifth, as applicable; and

Fifth, any balance of such Proceeds remaining after the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, no Letters of Credit or Foreign Credit Instruments shall be outstanding (unless fully cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.5(j) or 2.6(o)(iii), as applicable, of the Credit Agreement) and the Commitments shall have terminated shall be paid over to the applicable Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

6.4 Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.4, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in the order specified in Section 6.3, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the New York UCC, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by

applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof and applicable law. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

6.5 Sales, Etc.. (a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock 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.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section 6.5 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.5 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.5 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement.

6.6 Waiver; Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

SECTION 7. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

7.1 Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. (a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any Collateral whenever payable;

(ii) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral;

(iii) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.4 or 6.5, any indorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(iv) (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (3) sign and indorse any notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; and (7) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

(c) The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the highest rate per annum at which interest would then be payable on any category of past due ABR Loans under the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by the Administrative Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent on demand.

(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof in accordance with the terms hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

7.2 Duty of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Administrative Agent, any other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

7.3 Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Administrative Agent determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Administrative Agent of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the date hereof.

7.4 Authority of Administrative Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

SECTION 8. MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 9.2(b) of the Credit Agreement.

8.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or any Guarantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor shall be addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1.

8.3 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 8.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

8.4 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Guarantor agrees to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party for all its costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in Section 2 or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties to the extent any Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 9.3 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent any Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 9.3 of the Credit Agreement.

(d) The agreements in this Section 8.4 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

8.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and their successors and permitted assigns; provided that no Guarantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

8.6 Set-Off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and after obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each other Secured Party upon any amount becoming due and payable by any Borrower under the Credit Agreement (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), without notice to such Guarantor or any other Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Guarantor, to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in

each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party hereunder, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, as the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party shall notify such Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party of the proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party under this Section 8.6 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party may have.

8.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

8.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

8.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW).

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or

proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Guarantor at its address referred to in Section 8.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to xxx in any other jurisdiction; and

8.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

8.16 Judgment Currency.

(a) The Guarantors’ obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in a specified currency (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the applicable Agent or a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the applicable Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Guarantor in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other

currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Guarantors covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.
