Section 1.08. Limited Condition Transactions. In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:

(a) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement (other than the financial covenant set forth under Section 7.10, the definition of “Applicable Facility Fee Percentage” and the definition of “Applicable Margin”) that requires the calculation of any financial ratio or test, including the Total Leverage Ratio (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the financial ratios set forth in Sections 2.14(d), 7.02(q), 7.03(g), 7.03(s), 7.06(c), 7.06(f) and 7.12(a)(v)); or

(b) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets);

in each case, at the option of the Parent (the Parent’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (or, in respect of any transaction described in clauses (ii) or (iii) of the definition of a Limited Condition Transaction, the date of delivery of irrevocable notice of repayment or prepayment, declaration of dividend or similar event (and not at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction)) (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving Pro Forma Effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) on a Pro Forma Basis as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Test Period ended prior to the LCT Test Date (for income statement purposes) or at the end of such most recent Test Period (for balance sheet purposes), the Parent would have been permitted to take such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket, such ratio, test or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Parent has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets of the Consolidated Parties or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Parent has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any calculation of any ratio, test or basket availability with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, the making of Restricted Payments, the making of any Investment, the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Indebtedness, or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary (a “Subsequent Transaction”) following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement or irrevocable notice of repayment or prepayment, declaration of dividend or similar event for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining whether such Subsequent Transaction is permitted under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

Section 1.09. Pro Forma Calculations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, financial ratios and tests, including the Total Leverage Ratio shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.09; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 1.09, when

calculating the Total Leverage Ratio for purposes of determining actual compliance (as opposed to determining pro forma compliance, compliance on a Pro Forma Basis or compliance giving Pro Forma Effect to a transaction for purposes of another provision) with the financial covenant tests in Section 7.10, the events described in this Section 1.09 that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period shall not be given pro forma effect. Whenever a financial ratio or test is to be calculated on a pro forma basis or giving pro forma effect to a transaction and any related incurrence(s) of Indebtedness, the reference to the “Test Period” for purpose of calculating such financial ratio or test shall be deemed to be a reference to, and shall be based on, the most recently ended Test Period for which financial statements have been delivered prior to the relevant date of determination.

(b) For purposes of calculating any financial ratio or test, Specified Transactions (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection with therewith) that have been made (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period (or, in the case of the determination of Total Assets, the last day). If since the beginning of any applicable Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.09, then such financial ratio or test (or the calculation of Total Assets) shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.09.

(c) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Parent and include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of “run-rate” cost savings, operating improvements, operating expense reductions and other similar initiatives and synergies projected by the Parent in good faith to result from actions that have been taken (including prior to completion of any Specified Transactions or such events or initiatives) or with respect to which substantial steps have been taken or are expected to be taken (in the good faith determination of the Parent) within 24 months after such Specified Transaction (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating improvements, operating expense reductions and other similar initiatives and synergies had been realized on the first day of such period and as if such cost savings, operating improvements, operating expense reductions and other similar initiatives and synergies were realized during the entirety of such period) and “run-rate” means the full recurring benefit for a period that is associated with any action taken, committed to be taken or expected to be taken (including any savings expected to result from the elimination of a public target’s compliance costs with public company requirements) net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions, and any such adjustments shall be included in the initial pro forma calculations of such financial ratios or tests and during any subsequent Test Period in which the effects thereof are expected to be realized relating to such Specified Transaction; provided that (A) such amounts are reasonably identifiable and factually supportable (in the good faith determination of the Parent and subject to certification by a Responsible Officer of the Parent) and calculated on a pro forma basis net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions and (B) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this Section 1.09(c) to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Consolidated EBITDA, whether through a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, when calculating the Total Leverage Ratio on a Pro Forma Basis for purposes of Section 2.14(d)(iii)(B) or 7.03(s)(B), any Indebtedness that is incurred substantially contemporaneously therewith under any other provision of Section 2.14 or Section 7.03(s) shall be disregarded.

Section 1.10. Letters of Credit. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

Section 1.11. Certifications. All certifications made or to be made hereunder by an officer or representative of a Loan Party shall be made (and deemed made) by such person in his or her capacity solely as an officer or a representative of such Loan Party, on such Loan Party’s behalf and not in such Person’s individual capacity.

Section 1.12. Calculation of Exchange Rate. On each Exchange Rate Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall (a) determine the Exchange Rate as of such Exchange Rate Determination Date and (b) give notice thereof (i) to each Borrower and (ii) to each Lender that shall have requested such information. The Exchange Rates so determined shall become effective on the first Business Day immediately following the relevant Exchange Rate Determination Date (each, a “Reset Date”) and shall remain effective until the next succeeding Reset Date, and shall for all purposes of this Agreement (other than any provision expressly requiring the use of a current Exchange Rate) be the Exchange Rate employed in converting amounts between U.S. Dollars or Alternative Currencies.

Section 1.13. Cashless Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, to the extent that any Lender extends the maturity date of, or replaces, renews or refinances, any of its then-existing Loans with any Incremental Term Loan, any Refinancing Loan, any Replacement Term Loan, any Refinancing Commitment, any Extended Loan or any Extended Commitment or loans incurred under a new credit facility, in each case, to the extent such extension, replacement, renewal or refinancing is effected by means of a “cashless roll” by such Lender, such extension, replacement, renewal or refinancing shall be deemed to comply with any requirement hereunder or any other Loan Document that such payment be made “in U.S. Dollars”, “in Alternative Currencies”, “in immediately available funds”, “in Cash” or any other similar requirement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the assignor Lender and the assignee of such Lender.

Section 1.14. Jersey Terms. In each Loan Document, where it relates to a person: (i) incorporated; (ii) established; (iii) constituted; (iv) formed; or (v) having its “centre of main interests” (as that term is used in Article 3(1) of The Council of the European Union No.1346/2000) on Insolvency Proceedings), in each case, in Jersey, a reference to:

(a) a composition, compromise, assignment or arrangement with any creditor, winding up, liquidation, administration, dissolution, insolvency event or insolvency includes, without limitation, bankruptcy (as that term is interpreted pursuant to Article 8 of the Interpretation (Jersey) Law 1954), a compromise or arrangement of the type referred to in Article 125 of the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991 and any procedure or process referred to in Part 21 of the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991;

(b) a liquidator, receiver, administrative receiver, administrator or the like includes, without limitation, the Viscount of the Royal Court of Jersey, Autorisés or any other person performing the same function of each of the foregoing;

(c) Security or a security interest includes, without limitation, any hypothèque whether conventional, judicial or arising by operation of law and any security interest created pursuant to the Security Interests (Jersey) Law 1983 or Security Interests (Jersey) Law 2012 and any related legislation; and

(d) any analogous proceedings or step being taken in connection with insolvency includes any corporate action, legal proceedings or other formal procedure or formal step being taken in relation to an application for a declaration of en désastre being made in respect of any such entity or any of its assets (or the making of such declaration).

Section 1.15. LIBOR Discontinuation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, if the LIBOR Rate for any Interest Period is not available at any time for any reason, then the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period shall be a comparable or successor floating rate that is, at such time, broadly accepted by the syndicated loan market for loans denominated in Dollars in lieu of the LIBOR Rate as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, that in the case such consent is withheld by the Parent, the rate shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.03, or if no such broadly accepted comparable successor rate exists at such time, a successor index rate as the Administrative Agent may determine with the consent of the Parent and the Required Lenders; provided that (i) any such successor rate shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in a manner consistent with market practice and (ii) to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such successor rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Parent.

Section 2.02. Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

(a) Each Term Borrowing, each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans shall be made upon the applicable Borrower’s notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent (1) not later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time, or 11:00 a.m. London time in the case of any Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Euros), or 11:00 a.m. Brussels time in the case of any Borrowing denominated in Euros, three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans or, in the case of any Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, any conversion of ABR Loans to LIBOR Rate Loans, and (2) not later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time on the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of ABR Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars; provided that the notice referred to in clause (1) above may be delivered no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date in the case of the initial Credit Extensions to be made on the Closing Date. Each telephonic notice by the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery (including via email) to the Administrative Agent of a written Committed Loan Notice (and will not be effective until so confirmed), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.14, each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000,000 (or, with respect to any Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof), or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 (or, with respect to any Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof), in excess thereof (or, if less, the then Total Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitment or the total available Term Commitment for the applicable Term Facility, as applicable). Except as provided herein, each Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the applicable Borrower is requesting a Term Borrowing, a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other (which conversion option shall only be available in respect of Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars) or a continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans and the Facility under which such Borrowing is being requested, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued (stated in the relevant currency), (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans are to be converted, (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto, (vi) with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans, the Applicable Currency and (vii) wire instructions of the account(s) to which funds are to be disbursed (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the amount to be disbursed to any particular account may be less than the minimum or multiple limitations set forth above so long as the aggregate amount to be disbursed to all such accounts pursuant to such Borrowing meets such minimums and multiples). With respect to Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, if the applicable Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or, then the

applicable Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as, or converted to, ABR Loans (provided that with respect to any failure to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation of a LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, in such event such Loan shall be continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one month. Any such automatic conversion to ABR Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable LIBOR Rate Loans. If the applicable Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period (or fails to give a timely notice requesting a continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency), it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

(b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of the applicable Class of Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to ABR Loans or continuation described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of each Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), in the case of any Loan denominated in U.S. Dollars, not later than 2:00 p.m. (London time) in the case of any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Euros) and not later than 1:00 p.m. (Brussels time) in the case of any Loan denominated in Euros, in each case, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. The Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the applicable Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent by wire transfer of such funds in accordance with instructions provided by the applicable Borrower to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent; provided that if, on the date the Committed Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given by the applicable Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings of that Borrower outstanding, then the proceeds of the Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowing and second, to the applicable Borrower as provided above.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan unless the Borrower of that LIBOR Rate Loan pays the amount due, if any, under Section 3.05 in connection therewith. During the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may require by written notice to the Borrower that no Loans may be converted to or (except in the case of Loans denominated in Alternative Currency as provided above) continued as LIBOR Rate Loans.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for LIBOR Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the LIBOR Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(e) After giving effect to all Term Borrowings, all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than eight Interest Periods in effect (or such greater amount as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion).

(f) The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

(g) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.02(b) above, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and each of the Borrowers severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent promptly after written demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the applicable Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Overnight Rate plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the foregoing. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.02(g) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If the applicable Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the applicable Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the applicable Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the applicable Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(h) Each Lender at its option may make any LIBOR Rate Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that (i) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) such LIBOR Rate Loan shall be deemed to have been made and held by such Lender, and the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such LIBOR Rate Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender for the account of such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender and (iii) in exercising such option, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to minimize increased costs to the applicable Borrower resulting therefrom (which obligation of such Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it otherwise determines would be disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 3.04 shall apply); provided, further, that any such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender shall not be entitled to any greater indemnification under Section 3.01 with respect to such LIBOR Rate Loan than that to which the applicable Lender was entitled on the date on which such Loan was made (except in connection with (x) withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender with respect to such LIBOR Rate Loan, if such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender is a UK Treaty Lender which has confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence to the English Borrower and indicated that it wishes the UK DTTP Scheme to apply to this Agreement, HMRC has not yet responded to a UK DTTP Filing made in respect of such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender in relation to this Agreement (or such a UK DTTP Filing has not yet been made) and such Taxes would not be imposed if HMRC had given the relevant Loan Party authority to make payments to such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender without a UK Tax Deduction and (y) any indemnification entitlement arising as a result of a change in law after the date on which such Loan was made to the extent the applicable Lender would have been so entitled to such indemnification entitlement).

Section 2.03. Letters of Credit.

(a) The Letter of Credit Commitment. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions expressly set forth herein, (A) each L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit at sight denominated in U.S. Dollars or one or more Alternative Currencies for the account of the applicable Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(b), and (2) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit and (B) the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.03; provided that no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to make any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit if as of the date of such L/C Credit Extension, (x) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Revolving Credit Lender would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or (y) the Effective Amount of the L/C Obligations would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Letters of Credit will be issued by each L/C Issuer, in each case, at the direction of the U.S. Borrower, with the Letter of Credit exposure of each L/C Issuer to be subject to an individual sub-limit, which shall be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $7 million for Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch and $3 million for Bank of America, N.A. or in such other amounts from time to time as otherwise mutually agreed to by each such L/C Issuer and the U.S. Borrower. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the ability of the Borrowers and the Restricted Subsidiaries to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrowers and the Restricted Subsidiaries may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired, terminated or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.

(ii) An L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such L/C Issuer or any directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or direct that such L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder);

(B) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than 12 months after the date of issuance or last renewal unless (1) each Appropriate Lender and the L/C Issuer has approved of such expiration date or (2) the L/C Issuer thereof has approved of such expiration date and the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations in respect of such requested Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized or backstopped in a manner reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer;

(C) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless such Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized or backstopped in a manner reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer;

(D) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any policies of such L/C Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally; it being understood and agreed that neither Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, nor any of its affiliates shall be required to issue documentary or “trade” Letters of Credit (as opposed to “standby” Letters of Credit); and

(E) any Revolving Credit Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless such L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with the applicable Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such L/C Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which such L/C Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure as it may elect in its sole discretion.

(iii) An L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

(iv) Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included such L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer.

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the applicable Borrower delivered to an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the relevant L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars, or 11:00 a.m. (London time) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Euros), or 11:00 a.m. (Brussels time) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in Euros, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be; or, in each case, such later date and time as the relevant L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer: (a) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (b) the amount thereof; (c) the expiry date thereof; (d) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (e) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (f) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (g) the currency in which the requested Letter of Credit will be denominated; and (h) such other matters as the relevant L/C Issuer may reasonably request. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer: (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as the relevant L/C Issuer may reasonably request.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the relevant L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the applicable Borrower and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the relevant L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower (or its applicable Restricted Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the relevant L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement multiplied by the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii) If the applicable Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application with respect to any standby Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the relevant L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each 12-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit and in no event extending beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date unless the L/C Issuer thereof has approved of such expiration date and such Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized or backstopped in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such 12-month period to be mutually agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the relevant L/C Issuer, the applicable Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the relevant L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the relevant L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided that the relevant L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the relevant L/C Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its extended form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.03(a)(ii) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is 7 Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender or the applicable Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied or waived.

(iv) Promptly after issuance of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer will also deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall notify promptly the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) (New York City time) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars, or 11:00 a.m. (London time) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Euros), or 11:00 a.m. (Brussels time) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in Euros, on the first Business Day immediately following any payment by an L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit, with written notice to the applicable Borrower (each such date, an “Honor

Date”), the applicable Borrower shall be liable to reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing in the relevant currency in which such Letter of Credit was denominated; provided that if such reimbursement is not made on the date of drawing, the applicable Borrower shall pay interest to the relevant L/C Issuer on such amount at the rate applicable to a LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in that currency with a one month Interest Period (without duplication of interest payable on L/C Borrowings). The applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the applicable Borrower in writing of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. If the applicable Borrower fails to so reimburse such L/C Issuer at such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in U.S. Dollars in an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) and the amount of any related but unpaid interest due in respect thereof pursuant to the foregoing provisions (the “Unreimbursed Amount”) and the amount of such Appropriate Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement thereof. In such event, (x) in the case of an Unreimbursed Amount denominated in U.S. Dollars, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of ABR Loans and (y) in the case of an Unreimbursed Amount denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month, in each case to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to such Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of ABR Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans (as applicable) but subject to the amount of the Available Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of the Appropriate Lenders and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by an L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Appropriate Lender (including any Lender acting as an L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer in U.S. Dollars or the applicable Alternative Currency at the Administrative Agent’s Office for payments in an amount equal to its Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) (New York City time) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars, or 11:00 a.m. (London time) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Euros), or 11:00 a.m. (Brussels time) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in Euros, on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Appropriate Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made, (x) in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars, a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan denominated in U.S. Dollars in the form of an ABR Loan or (y) in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan denominated in the applicable Alternative Currency in the form of a LIBOR Rate Loan, as applicable, to the applicable Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the relevant L/C Issuer.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of ABR Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars or LIBOR Rate Loans for Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, as the case may be, because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the relevant L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount (and in the relevant currency) of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on written demand (together with interest) and

shall bear interest at the Default Rate for Revolving Credit Loans denominated in the applicable currency (which begins to accrue upon funding by the applicable L/C Issuer). In such event, each Appropriate Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv) Until each Appropriate Lender funds its Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of such amount shall be solely for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer.

(v) Each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse an L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the relevant L/C Issuer, the applicable Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the applicable Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi) If any Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. A certificate of the relevant L/C Issuer submitted to any Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Repayment of Participations. (i) If, at any time after an L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the applicable Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the amount received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of an L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Appropriate Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit issued by it and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that any Loan Party may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the relevant L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any payment by the relevant L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the relevant L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

(v) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Guaranty or any other guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations of any Loan Party in respect of such Letter of Credit; or

(vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party (other than payment in cash or performance in full);

provided that the foregoing in clauses (i) through (vi) shall not excuse any L/C Issuer from liability to the applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential or exemplary

damages, claims in respect of which are waived by the applicable Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by the applicable Borrower that are caused by such L/C Issuer’s (or its Related Parties’) gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.

(f) Role of L/C Issuers. Each Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuers, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Lenders holding a majority of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to either of their use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the applicable Borrower pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuers, any Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.03(e); provided that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the applicable Borrower may have a claim against an L/C Issuer, and such L/C Issuer may be liable to the applicable Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the applicable Borrower caused by such L/C Issuer’s (or its Related Parties’) willful misconduct or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s (or its Related Parties’) willful misconduct or grossly negligent failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit, in each case as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and no L/C Issuer shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g) Cash Collateral. (i) If, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, (ii) if any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Lenders holding a majority of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, require the applicable Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 8.02 or (iii) if an Event of Default set forth under Section 8.01(f) occurs and is continuing, the applicable Borrower shall Cash Collateralize all L/C Obligations relating to it in an amount equal to 103% of the Effective Amount of such L/C Obligations determined as of such date, and shall do so not later than 2:00 p.m. on (x) in the case of the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii), the next Business Day following the Business Day that the applicable Borrower receives written notice thereof, and (y) in the case of the immediately preceding clause (iii), the Business Day on which an Event of Default set forth under Section 8.01(f) occurs or, if such day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately succeeding such day. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly upon the written request of the Administrative Agent or the applicable L/C

Issuer, the applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (solely after giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). For purposes hereof, “Cash Collateralize” and “Cash Collateralization” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the relevant L/C Issuer and the Appropriate Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances (“Cash Collateral”) pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the relevant L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Appropriate Lenders). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. Each Borrower hereby severally grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuers and the Revolving Credit Lenders of the applicable Facility, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing provided by it. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked accounts at the Administrative Agent and may be invested in readily available Cash Equivalents (for the benefit of the applicable Borrower). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are expressly subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) or nonconsensual liens permitted under Section 7.01 or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations of such Borrower, the applicable Borrower will, promptly following written demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the deposit accounts at the Administrative Agent as aforesaid, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate Effective Amount over (b) the total amount of funds relating to that Borrower, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent reasonably determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer. To the extent the amount of any Cash Collateral exceeds the then Effective Amount of such L/C Obligations of such Borrower and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the excess promptly shall be refunded to the applicable Borrower. To the extent any Event of Default giving rise to the requirement to Cash Collateralize any Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.03(g) is cured or otherwise waived by the Required Lenders, then so long as no other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all Cash Collateral pledged to Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit shall be promptly refunded to the applicable Borrower. If at any time the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided or Liens described above, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the applicable Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly following written demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(h) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender for the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility in accordance with its Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement, a Letter of Credit fee for each Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect for the relevant currency and for each different Class or Classes of the respective Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments at such time multiplied by the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit); provided that (x) if any portion of a Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized by the applicable Borrower or reallocated to the other Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to Section 2.17(a)(iv), then the applicable Borrower shall not be required to pay a Letter of Credit fee to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share so long as it is Cash Collateralized by the applicable Borrower or reallocated to the other Revolving Credit Lenders, but such Letter of Credit

fee shall instead be payable to such other Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share of such reallocated amount, and (y) if any portion of a Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share is not Cash Collateralized or reallocated pursuant to Section 2.17(a)(iv), then the Letter of Credit fee with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share shall be payable to the applicable L/C Issuer until such Pro Rata Share is Cash Collateralized or reallocated or such Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender. Such Letter of Credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such Letter of Credit fees shall be due and payable in U.S. Dollars on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the earlier to occur of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and the Maturity Date then in effect for the applicable Revolving Credit Facility or the date on which the applicable Class of Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders holding such Commitments shall be terminated as provided herein. If there is any change in the Applicable Margin during any quarter, the daily maximum amount of each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin was in effect.

(i) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuers. Each Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee (in the relevant currency in which the applicable Letter of Credit is denominated) with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it on behalf of such Borrower to any Consolidated Party equal to 0.125% per annum of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit) or such other fee as may be agreed with such L/C Issuer (the “L/C Fronting Fee”). Such fronting fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fees shall be due and payable in U.S. Dollars (and if the applicable Letter of Credit is in an Alternative Currency, shall be calculated based on the U.S. Dollar Equivalent amount in respect thereof) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the earlier to occur of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of all Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein. In addition, the applicable Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account with respect to each Letter of Credit issued on behalf of the Loan Parties the customary and reasonable issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable within 10 Business Days of demand and are nonrefundable.

(j) Conflict with Letter of Credit Application. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement or any Letter of Credit Application, in the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control.

(k) Addition of an L/C Issuer. A Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender reasonably acceptable to the Parent may become an additional L/C Issuer hereunder pursuant to a written agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders of any such additional L/C Issuer.

(l) Reporting. Each L/C Issuer will report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each calendar month, the aggregate face amount (or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of any Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding calendar month (and on such other dates as the Administrative Agent may request), (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance

or amendment, and the aggregate face amount (or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of any Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) 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 L/C Issuer 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 L/C Issuer makes any L/C Disbursement, the date, currency and amount of such L/C Disbursement and (iv) on any Business Day on which the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse an L/C Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such L/C Issuer on such day, the date, currency and amount of such failure.

(m) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments. If the Letter of Credit Expiration Date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments occurs prior to the expiry date of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of which the Letter of Credit Expiration Date shall not have so occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall, to the extent such Letters of Credit could have been issued under such other tranches, automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Credit Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Sections 2.03(c) and (d)) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Credit Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i), the applicable Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.03(g). Commencing with the maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit shall be agreed solely with each L/C Issuer.

(n) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Restricted Subsidiary, the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Restricted Subsidiaries (whether or not a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the applicable Borrower) inures to the benefit of that Borrower, and that the applicable Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries.

Section 2.04. Utilization of Multicurrency Revolving Commitments in an Alternative Currency.

(a) The Administrative Agent will determine the U.S. Dollar Equivalent amount with respect to any (i) Borrowing of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans comprised of Alternative Currency Loans as of the requested date of Borrowing, (ii) outstanding Alternative Currency Loans that are Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans as of the last Business Day of each month, (iii) outstanding Alternative Currency Loans on the date of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.05(a) or 2.05(b), and/or (iv) issue of, or amendment of, any Letter of Credit denominated in Alternative Currency as of the requested date of issue or amendment, respectively (each such date under clauses (i) through (iv), a “Computation Date”). Upon receipt of any Committed Loan Notice in respect of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share, of the Borrowing. In the case of a Borrowing comprised of Alternative Currency Loans, such notice will provide the approximate amount of each Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, and Administrative Agent will, upon the determination of the U.S. Dollar Equivalent amount of the Borrowing as specified in the Committed Loan Notice, promptly notify each Lender of the exact amount of such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing.

(b) Each Borrower shall be entitled to request that the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans hereunder and Letters of Credit issued hereunder also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency (other than U.S. Dollars), in addition to the currencies specified in the definition of “Alternative Currency” herein, that is freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets and is freely transferable and freely convertible into U.S. Dollars (an “Agreed Alternative Currency”). The applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any request for designation of an Agreed Alternative Currency in accordance with Section 10.02, to be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least 15 Business Days in advance of the date of any Borrowing hereunder proposed to be made in such Agreed Alternative Currency (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer(s), in its or their sole discretion). Upon receipt of any such request the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders thereof and each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender will use its best efforts to respond to such request within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof. Each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender may grant or accept such request in its sole discretion. Such request shall only result in an Agreed Alternative Currency if all Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders agree to provide such Agreed Alternative Currency.

(c) In the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans in an Agreed Alternative Currency, the applicable Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders shall be under no obligation to make such Loans in the requested Agreed Alternative Currency as part of such Borrowing if the Administrative Agent has received notice from any of the applicable Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days prior to the day of such Borrowing that such Lender cannot provide Loans in the requested Agreed Alternative Currency, in which event the Administrative Agent will give written notice to the applicable Borrower no later than 9:00 a.m. (London time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested date of such Borrowing that the Borrowing in the requested Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given promptly by the Administrative Agent to the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the applicable Borrower that any such Borrowing in a requested Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, the applicable Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (London time) two (2) Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, withdraw the Committed Loan Notice relating to such requested Borrowing. If a Borrower does so withdraw such Committed Loan Notice, the Borrowing requested therein shall not occur and the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender. If a Borrower does not so withdraw such Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender and such Committed Loan Notice shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice that requests a Borrowing comprised of LIBOR Rate Loans in U.S. Dollars with an Interest Period of one month in an aggregate amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the originally requested Borrowing in the Committed Loan Notice; and in such notice by the Administrative Agent to each Lender will state such aggregate amount of such Borrowing in U.S. Dollars and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.

(d) In the case of a proposed continuation of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Agreed Alternative Currency for an additional Interest Period pursuant to Section 2.02(a), the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders shall not be under any obligation to continue such Loans if the Administrative Agent has received notice from any of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) four (4) Business Days prior to the day of such continuation that such Lender cannot continue to provide Loans in the Agreed Alternative Currency, in which event

the Administrative Agent will give notice to the applicable Borrower not later than 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the requested date of such continuation that the continuation of such Loans in the Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given promptly by the Administrative Agent to the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the applicable Borrower that any such continuation of Loans is not then available, any notice of conversion or continuation with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn and such Loans shall be redenominated into LIBOR Rate Loans in U.S. Dollars with an Interest Period of one month with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Borrower and the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders of any such redenomination and in such notice by the Administrative Agent to each Lender will state the aggregate U.S. Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Alternative Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share thereof.

(e) If at any time an Alternative Currency Loan denominated in a currency other than Euros is outstanding, the relevant Alternative Currency is replaced as the lawful currency of the country that issued such Alternative Currency (the “Issuing Country”) by the Euro so that all payments are to be made in the Issuing Country in Euros and not in the Alternative Currency previously the lawful currency of such country, then such Alternative Currency Loan shall be automatically converted into an Alternative Currency Loan denominated in Euros in a principal amount equal to the amount of Euros into which the principal amount of such Alternative Currency Loan would be converted pursuant to the EMU Legislation and thereafter no further Alternative Currency Loans will be available in such Alternative Currency, with the basis of accrual of interest, notice requirements and payment offices with respect to such Alternative Currency Loan to be that consistent with the convention and practices in the Euro-zone interbank market for Euro denominated loans. Without prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or rounding prescribed by any relevant EMU Legislation, (i) each reference in this Agreement to a minimum amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in such Alternative Currency shall be replaced by a reference to such reasonably comparable and convenient amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in Euros as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify and (ii) this Agreement shall be subject to such other reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be necessary or appropriate to reflect the introduction of or changeover to Euros.

(f) In each case, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, the applicable Borrowers from time to time, at the request of any Lender or L/C Issuer, shall pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer the amount of any losses, damages, liabilities, claims, reduction in yield, additional expense, increased cost, reduction in any amount payable, reduction in the effective return of its capital, the decrease or delay in the payment of interest or any other return forgone as reasonably determined by such Lender or L/C Issuer or its Affiliates with respect to an Alternative Currency Loan affected by Section 2.04(e) as a result of the tax or currency exchange resulting from the introduction, changeover to or operation of the Euro in any applicable nation or Eurocurrency market. A certificate of any such Lender or the respective L/C Issuer setting forth such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s determination of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error so long as such determination is made by such Lender or such L/C Issuer on a reasonable basis. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender or such L/C Issuer the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the existence of an Event of Default, upon the request of the Required Revolving Lenders under the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility, all or any part of any outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans that are Alternative Currency Loans shall be redenominated and converted into ABR Loans in Dollars with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Alternative Currency Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Parent of any such redenomination and conversion request.

Section 2.05. Prepayments.

(a) Optional. (i) The Borrowers may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay any Class or Classes of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty (except as expressly set forth in this Section 2.05); provided that (1) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time in the case of Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, or 11:00 a.m. London time in the case of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Euros), or 11:00 a.m. Brussels time in the case of Loans denominated in Euros (A) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans and (B) on the Business Day prior to any prepayment of ABR Loans; (2) any prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000,000 (or, with respect to any Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof), or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 (or, with respect to any Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof) in excess thereof; and (3) any prepayment of ABR Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Class(es) and Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of such prepayment. Any prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each prepayment of the principal of, and interest on, any Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made in the relevant Alternative Currency (even if the applicable Borrower is required to convert currency to do so). If such notice is given by a Borrower, unless rescinded pursuant to clause (ii) below, the applicable Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Loan (other than prepayments of ABR Revolving Credit Loans that are not made in connection with the termination or permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments) shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. In the case of each prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(a), the applicable Borrower may in its sole discretion select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid (provided that, with respect to any optional prepayment of the Initial Term A Loans, in the absence of direction from the English Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall apply such prepayment to the remaining scheduled Initial Term A Loans repayments in direct order of maturity), and such payment shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the applicable Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment under Section 2.05(a)(i) by notice to the Administrative Agent on the date of prepayment if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of all or any portion of the applicable Class or occurrence of another event, which refinancing or event shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed (subject to payment of amounts due under Section 3.05).

(iii) Voluntary prepayments of any Class of Term Loans permitted hereunder shall be applied as directed by the English Borrower and otherwise first to ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to LIBOR Rate Loans, in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by such Borrower pursuant to Section 3.05.

(iv) Voluntary prepayments of any Class of Term Loans permitted hereunder shall be applied to the remaining scheduled installments of principal thereof pursuant to Section 2.07(a) in a manner determined at the discretion of the English Borrower and specified in the notice of prepayment (and absent such direction, in direct order of maturity).

(b) Mandatory. (i) [Reserved].

(ii) If (1) any Consolidated Party Disposes of any property or assets pursuant to Section 7.05(i), (p) or (s), or (2) any Casualty Event occurs, in either case that results in the receipt by a Consolidated Party of Net Proceeds, the applicable Borrower shall cause to be prepaid on or prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days after the date of the receipt by such Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of such Net Proceeds (or such later time that such Borrower is entitled to reinvest Net Proceeds as provided in the definition of “Net Proceeds”), an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of all such Net Proceeds; provided that if at the time that any such prepayment would be required, such Borrower is required to offer to repurchase or prepay any Permitted Refinancing of any such Indebtedness (to the extent secured by Liens on the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Obligations), in each case pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with the net proceeds of such Disposition or Casualty Event required to be offered to be so repurchased, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then such Borrower may apply such Net Proceeds on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided, further, that the portion of such net proceeds allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such net proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such net proceeds shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans and to the repurchase or prepayment of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii) shall be reduced accordingly; provided, further, that to the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such indebtedness repurchased or prepaid, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

(iii) If any Consolidated Party incurs or issues any Indebtedness after the Closing Date (A) not permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.03 or (B) that is intended to constitute Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of, or Replacement Term Loans incurred to refinance (in accordance with the requirements of Section 10.01) any Class of Term Loans, the applicable Borrower shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (or, in the case of Indebtedness constituting Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness or Replacement Term Loans, the applicable Class of Term Loans) in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Proceeds received therefrom on or prior to the date that is three (3) Business Days after the receipt by such Consolidated Party of such Net Proceeds.

(iv) If for any reason the aggregate Effective Amount of Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations of any Class at any time exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class then in effect, the applicable Borrower shall promptly prepay Revolving Credit Loans of that Class and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in respect of that Class in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided that such Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize any such L/C Obligations in respect of such Class pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(iv) unless, after the prepayment in full of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of such Class, such aggregate Effective Amount exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of that Class then in effect.

(v) If, after the application of any Net Proceeds in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii) and Section 2.05(b)(iii) above, the entire amount of Term Loans outstanding hereunder have been repaid in full, any amount of such Net Proceeds in excess of the amount required to effect such repayment in full shall be applied first, to repay outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and second, after any outstanding Revolving Credit Loans have been repaid in full, to Cash Collateralize any outstanding L/C Obligations, provided that such repayment or Cash Collateralization shall not result in any corresponding permanent reduction in the related Revolving Credit Commitments.

(vi) Except as otherwise provided in any Refinancing Amendment, Extension Amendment, any Incremental Amendment or Replacement Term Loans Amendment or as otherwise provided herein, (A) each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied ratably to each Class of Term Loans then outstanding (provided that any prepayment of Term Loans with the Net Proceeds of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be applied solely to each applicable Class of Refinanced Debt), (B) with respect to each Class of Term Loans, each prepayment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied to the scheduled installments of principal thereof following the date of such prepayment in direct order of maturity and (C) each such prepayment shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares of such prepayment.

(vii) The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans or Cash Collateralization of any outstanding L/C Obligations required to be made by such Borrower pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this Section 2.05(b) not later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time in the case of any Loan or L/C Obligation denominated in U.S. Dollars, or 11:00 a.m. London time in the case of any Loan or L/C Obligation denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Euros), or 11:00 a.m. Brussels time in the case of any Loan or L/C Obligation denominated in Euros, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the aggregate amount of such prepayment to be made by such Borrower. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the contents of such Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Appropriate Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the prepayment. Each Term Lender may reject all of its Pro Rata Share of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii)(A) of this Section 2.05(b) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent no later than 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment; provided, however, in no event may the proceeds of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness be rejected. If a Term Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. Any Declined Proceeds shall be retained by the applicable Borrower.

(viii) In connection with any mandatory prepayments by the applicable Borrower of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b), such prepayments shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans; provided that if no Lenders exercise the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section

2.05(b)(vii), then, with respect to such mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to Term Loans that are ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Term Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by such Borrower pursuant to Section 3.05.

(ix) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.05(b), (A) to the extent that the Parent has determined that the repatriation or upstreaming to the United States or the United Kingdom of any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Disposition by a Non-U.S. Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(ii) (an “Affected Disposition”) or the Net Proceeds of any Casualty Event from a Non-U.S. Subsidiary (an “Affected Casualty Event”) is prohibited under any Requirement of Law, would conflict with the fiduciary duties of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary’s directors, or would result in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a risk of personal or criminal liability for any officer, director, employee, manager, member of management or consultant of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary, the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.05(b) but shall be retained by the applicable Non-U.S. Subsidiary and shall be available for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries for so long, but only so long, as such repatriation remains prohibited under Requirement of Law, would conflict with the fiduciary duties of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary’s directors, or would result in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a risk of personal or criminal liability for the Persons described above (and the Parent hereby agrees to undertake to use commercially reasonable efforts for up to two (2) years to overcome or eliminate any such restrictions (subject to the considerations above and as determined in good faith in the Parent’s reasonable business judgment) to cause such repatriation to the United States and/or the United Kingdom); provided, however, that once the Parent has determined in good faith that such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds is permitted under Requirement of Law, no longer would conflict with the fiduciary duties of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary’s directors, or no longer would result in, or reasonably be expected to result in, a risk of personal or criminal liability for the Persons described above, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than two (2) Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of any taxes payable or reserved against, and costs and expenses incurred or payable by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) to the extent provided herein and (B) to the extent that the Parent has determined in good faith that the repatriation or upstreaming of any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Affected Disposition or any Affected Casualty Event could have a material adverse tax cost or regulatory consequence (including the imposition of material withholding taxes and taking into account any tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with, and at the time of, such repatriation) with respect to such Net Proceeds, the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.05(b) but shall be retained by the applicable Non-U.S. Subsidiary and shall be available for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries for so long, but only so long, as such repatriation could have such material adverse tax cost or regulatory consequence (and the Parent hereby agrees to undertake to use commercially reasonable efforts for up to two (2) years to overcome or eliminate any such material adverse tax costs or regulatory consequences (subject to the considerations above and as determined in good faith in the Parent’s reasonable business judgment) to cause such repatriation to the United States and/or the United Kingdom); provided, however, that once the Parent has determined in good faith that such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds can be effected without having such material adverse tax cost or regulatory consequence, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than two (2) Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of any taxes payable or reserved against, and costs and expenses incurred or payable by Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) to the extent provided herein.

(c) Interest, Funding Losses, Etc. All prepayments under this Section 2.05 shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon (other than prepayments of ABR Revolving Credit Loans that are not made in connection with the termination or permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments), together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period therefor, any amounts owing in respect of such LIBOR Rate Loan pursuant to Section 3.05.

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.05, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.05 prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, in lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 2.05 in respect of any such LIBOR Rate Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the applicable Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit an amount sufficient to make any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder together with accrued interest to the last day of such Interest Period into a Cash Collateral Account until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from such Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the applicable Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Section 2.05. Such deposit shall be deemed to be a prepayment of such Loans by such Borrower for all purposes under this Agreement.

Section 2.06. Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Optional. The Borrowers may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the unused Commitments of any Class, or from time to time permanently reduce the unused Commitments of any Class, in each case without premium or penalty; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent three (3) Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 (or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of any Commitments denominated in an Alternative Currency), or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 (or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of any Commitments denominated in an Alternative Currency) in excess thereof or, if less, the entire amount thereof and (iii) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. Except as provided above, the amount of any such Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Letter of Credit Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers may rescind or postpone any notice of termination of any Commitments if such termination would have resulted from a refinancing of all or any portion of the applicable Class or occurrence of other event, which refinancing or other event shall not be consummated or otherwise shall be delayed.

(b) Mandatory. The Initial Term A Commitments of each Term Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the funding of the Initial Term A Loans to be made by such Term Lender on the Closing Date. The Revolving Credit Commitments of each Revolving Credit Lender shall automatically and permanently terminate on the respective Maturity Date for each Class of Revolving Credit Commitments.

(c) Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Appropriate Lenders of any termination or reduction of unused portion of the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the unused Commitments of any Class under this Section 2.06. The amount of any such reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall not be applied to the Letter of Credit Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Borrowers. Upon any reduction of unused Commitments of any Class, the Commitment of each Lender of such Class shall be reduced by such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount by which such Commitments are reduced. All commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments of any Class shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders on the effective date of such termination.

Section 2.07. Repayment of Loans.

(a) Term Loans.

The English Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Appropriate Lenders, on the Maturity Date for Initial Term A Loans, the aggregate principal amount of all such Initial Term A Loans then outstanding due and payable on such date.

(b) Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrowers shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Appropriate Lenders on the Maturity Date for the applicable Revolving Credit Facility the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans under such Facility outstanding on such date.

Section 2.08. Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b), (i) each LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) each ABR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or 8.01(f), each Borrower shall pay interest on past due amounts owing by it hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate, which interest on past due amounts shall be payable in lieu of (and not in addition to) any interest on such past due amounts that would otherwise be payable pursuant to Section 2.08(a); provided that no interest at the Default Rate shall accrue or be payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Accrued and unpaid interest on such amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon written demand.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

Section 2.09. Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Sections 2.03(h) and (i):

(a) Facility Fee. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender under the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility in accordance with its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement, a facility fee equal to the Applicable Facility Fee Percentage multiplied by the actual daily amount of the aggregate

Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments (whether used or unused); provided that any facility fee accrued with respect to any of the unused Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrowers so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such facility fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrowers prior to such time; provided, further, that no facility fee shall accrue on any of the unused Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. The facility fee on the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility shall commence to accrue on and including the Closing Date and shall cease to accrue on the date on which the applicable Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein and such Lender no longer has any Revolving Credit Exposure in respect of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur during the first full fiscal quarter after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for such Revolving Credit Facility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any Lender has Revolving Credit Exposure in respect of the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility notwithstanding expiration or termination of the applicable Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments, such facility fee shall continue to accrue on such Revolving Credit Exposure for so long as such Revolving Credit Exposure remains outstanding and shall be payable on demand. The facility fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Margin during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin was in effect.

(b) Other Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Agents such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing (including pursuant to the Fee Letter) in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever (except as expressly agreed between the Borrowers and the applicable Agent).

Section 2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for ABR Loans (including ABR Loans determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days, or 366 days, as applicable, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.11. Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), as a non-fiduciary agent for the Borrowers, in each case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to their respective Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of

manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note payable to such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), Applicable Currency, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, entries in the Register, evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and (b), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, absent manifest error; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.

Section 2.12. Payments Generally.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to payments in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office for payment in U.S. Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than 1:00 p.m. (London time) on the dates specified herein. If, for any reason, a Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, that Borrower shall make such payment in U.S. Dollars in the U.S. Dollar Equivalent amount of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Appropriate Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s applicable Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after the applicable time specified above shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) Except as otherwise provided herein, if any payment to be made by the Borrowers shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of LIBOR Rate Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(c) Unless the applicable Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds, then:

(i) if the applicable Borrower has failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect; and

(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. When such Lender makes payment to the Administrative Agent (together with all accrued interest thereon), then such payment amount (excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the applicable Borrower, and such Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

A written notice (including documentation reasonably supporting such request) of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the applicable Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.12(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(d) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(e) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to fund participations in Letters of Credit are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or purchase its participation.

(f) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

(g) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in Section 8.03. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may (to the fullest extent permitted by mandatory provisions of applicable Law), but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the sum of (a) the Effective Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and (b) the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender.

(h) Amounts to be applied to the prepayment of Loans in connection with any mandatory prepayments by the applicable Borrower of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b) shall be applied, as applicable, on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans; provided that if no Lenders exercise the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(vi), then, with respect to such mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to reduce outstanding ABR Loans. Any amounts remaining after each such application shall be applied to prepay LIBOR Rate Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by such Borrower pursuant to Section 3.05.

Section 2.13. Sharing of Payments. If, other than as provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in respect of any principal or interest on account of the Loans or the participations in L/C Obligations held by it, in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them and/or such sub-participations in the participations in L/C Obligations held by them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of any principal or interest on such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the applicable Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement as in effect from time to time (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant permitted hereunder. The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment

(including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.13 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Borrowers may extend the final maturity of Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments in connection with an Extension that is permitted under Section 2.16 without being obligated to effect such extensions on a pro rata basis among the Lenders (it being understood that no such extension (i) shall constitute a payment or prepayment of any Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, for purposes of this Section 2.13 or (ii) shall reduce the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due under Section 2.07(a), except that the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due to a Lender of Extended Term Loans may be reduced to the extent provided pursuant to the express terms of the respective Extension Amendment) without giving rise to any violation of this Section 2.13 or any other provision of this Agreement. Furthermore, the Borrowers may take all actions contemplated by Section 2.16 in connection with any Extension (including modifying pricing, amortization and repayments or prepayments), and in each case such actions shall be permitted, and the differing payments contemplated therein shall be permitted, without giving rise to any violation of this Section 2.13 or any other provision of this Agreement.

Section 2.14. Incremental Credit Extensions.

(a) Incremental Commitments. Each Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent (an “Incremental Request”), request (i) one or more new commitments which shall be in the same Facility and same currency as any outstanding Term Loans (a “Term Loan Increase”) or a new Class of term loans denominated in U.S. Dollars or an Alternative Currency (collectively with any Term Loan Increase, the “Incremental Term Commitments”) under this Agreement and/or (ii) (A) one or more increases in the amount of any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments (a “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase”) and/or (B) the establishment of one or more new Revolving Credit Commitments (any such new commitment, a “New Revolving Credit Commitment” and, together with Revolving Credit Commitment Increases, the “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments” and, collectively with any Incremental Term Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders.

(b) Incremental Loans. Any Incremental Term Loans (other than Term Loan Increases) effected through the establishment of one or more new Term Loans made on an Incremental Facility Closing Date shall be designated a separate Class of Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Term Commitments of any Class are effected (including through any Term Loan Increase), subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall make a Loan to the applicable Borrower (an “Incremental Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Term Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment is effected, subject to the satisfaction of the

100

terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender shall make its Commitment available to the applicable Borrower (when borrowed, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Loan” and, collectively with any Incremental Term Loan, an “Incremental Loan”) in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Increase or New Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, and (ii) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment Increase or the New Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, and the Incremental Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Incremental Term Loans may have identical terms to any of the Term Loans and be treated as the same Class as any of such Term Loans.

(c) Incremental Request. Each Incremental Request from the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments. Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments may be provided, by any existing Lender (but no existing Lender will have an obligation to make any Incremental Commitment, nor will the applicable Borrower have any obligation to approach any existing Lenders to request any Incremental Commitment) or by any other Person that is not (w) a Disqualified Lender, (x) a Defaulting Lender, (y) a natural Person or (z) the applicable Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (any such Person being called an “Additional Lender”) (each such existing Lender or Additional Lender providing such, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Lender” or “Incremental Term Lender,” as applicable, and, collectively, the “Incremental Lenders”); provided that the Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Lender’s or Additional Lender’s making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments to the extent such consent, if any, would be required under Section 10.07(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender.

(d) Effectiveness of Incremental Amendment. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment, and the Incremental Commitments thereunder, shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date of such Incremental Amendment (the “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) of each of the following conditions:

(i) (x) no Default or Event of Default shall exist after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments; provided that in the case of Incremental Commitments incurred to finance a Limited Condition Transaction constituting a Permitted Acquisition or permitted Investment hereunder, such condition shall be deemed satisfied so long as no Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or 8.01(f) exists after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments and (y) the representations and warranties required to be true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, shall be correct in all respects) on and as of the date of the incurrence of such Incremental Commitments shall be limited to those agreed between the Borrower incurring, and the Lenders providing, such Incremental Commitments, provided that in the case of Incremental Commitments incurred to finance a Limited Condition Transaction constituting a Permitted Acquisition or permitted Investment hereunder, such requirement shall be limited to customary SunGard “specified” representations and “acquisition agreement” representations or “certain funds” representations;

(ii) each Incremental Term Commitment shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $10,000,000 and shall be in an increment of the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000and each Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 and shall be in an increment of $1,000,000;

101

(iii) the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding at any time shall not exceed (A) an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $50,000,000 (net of outstanding Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 7.03(s)(A)) plus (B) an unlimited amount so long as on the date of the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Commitments under this clause (B), the Total Leverage Ratio determined on a Pro Forma Basis (including after giving Pro Forma Effect to any Specified Transaction to be financed (in whole or in part) with the proceeds of such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, but excluding any Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments incurred under clause (A)) as of the last day of the then most recently ended Test Period, would not exceed 2.25:1.00;

(iv) the Parent shall be in compliance with Section 7.10(a), determined for the Test Period most recently ended prior to the date of the incurrence of the Incremental Commitments, on a Pro Forma Basis, as if such Incremental Commitments had been incurred on the first day of such Test Period; and

(v) for purposes of the calculations in clauses (iii) and (iv) above, (A) with respect to any Incremental Commitments, such calculations shall assume all Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments established under clause (iii)(B) are fully drawn, (B) to the extent the proceeds of any such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are used to repay Indebtedness, Pro Forma Effect shall be given to such repayment of Indebtedness and (C) the incurrence or establishment of Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments under clause (iii)(A) above shall at all times not be subject to any ratio test, regardless of whether such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are established or incurred simultaneously with Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments established or incurred under clause (iii)(B) or otherwise.

(e) Required Terms. The terms, provisions and documentation of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Commitments or the Incremental Revolving Credit Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, of any Class, except as otherwise set forth herein, shall be as agreed between the applicable Borrower and the applicable Incremental Lenders; provided that, to the extent the terms of such Incremental Commitments are not consistent with the Facilities (except to the extent permitted by this Section 2.14), the terms of such Incremental Commitments shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In any event:

(i) the Incremental Term Loans and, as applicable, the New Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Commitment Increase:

(A) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with any then-existing Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facilities;

(B) in the case of Incremental Term Loans, shall rank pari passu in right of security with any then-existing Class of Term Loans incurred by, and Class of Term Commitments made available to, the same Borrower incurring such Incremental Term Loans;

(C) in the case of New Revolving Credit Commitments, shall rank pari passu in right of security with any then-existing Class of Revolving Credit Loans incurred by, and Class of Revolving Credit Commitments made available to, the same Borrower incurring such New Revolving Credit Commitments;

102

(D) in the case of Incremental Term Loans and New Revolving Credit Commitments, shall not be (x) guaranteed by any Person which is not a Loan Party or (y) secured by any assets other than the Collateral (other than any New Revolving Credit Commitments incurred by any new Borrower that is a Non-U.S. Subsidiary that becomes a party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, which may be guaranteed by Persons that are not Loan Parties on the date when such New Revolving Credit Commitments in favor of such Borrower is established and secured by collateral belonging to such Loan Parties so long as the Lenders that agree to provide such New Revolving Credit Commitments agree to be subject to the DAM Exchange (and become a party to the Re-Allocation Agreement, by execution and delivery of a joinder thereto or other arrangement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent);

(E) shall be subject to the DAM Exchange (and the holders of any Indebtedness or commitments in respect of such Incremental Term Loans and, as applicable, New Revolving Credit Commitments or any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall have become a party to the Re-Allocation Agreement, by execution and delivery of a joinder thereto or other arrangement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent);

(F) in the case of Incremental Term Loans, shall not mature earlier than the Latest Maturity Date of the Initial Term A Loans outstanding at the time of incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans;

(G) in the case of New Revolving Credit Commitments, shall not mature earlier than the Latest Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding at the time of incurrence of such New Revolving Credit Commitments and shall not have amortization or scheduled mandatory commitment reductions (other than at maturity);

(H) in the case of Incremental Term Loans, shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of then-existing Initial Term A Loans;

(I) in the case of Incremental Term Loans, subject to clause (B) and (D) above, shall have amortization determined by the applicable Borrower and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders;

(J) subject to clause (iii) below, shall have an Applicable Margin determined by the applicable Borrower and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable;

(L) may participate on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of Initial Term A Loans hereunder, as specified in the applicable Incremental Amendment;

(ii) all other material terms of any Incremental Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the applicable Borrower) to the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans than, those applicable to the then-existing Term Loans (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date of the then-existing Term Loans), provided, however, that (X) to the extent the terms and conditions of such Incremental Term Loans are not consistent with one or more of the existing Term Facilities (except to the extent permitted pursuant to clause (i) or clause (ii)(Y) below), such terms and conditions may differ if reasonably satisfactory to the Parent and the Administrative Agent, or (Y) in the event such terms are more favorable (taken as a whole) to the Incremental Lenders providing such additional Term Loans, (A) the applicable Borrowers shall have the right to unilaterally provide the existing Term Lenders with additional rights and benefits and the “substantially identical to” or not “no more favorable” requirement of the preceding proviso and compliance therewith shall be determined after giving effect to such additional rights and benefits and (B) to the extent that an additional financial maintenance covenant is added for the benefit of the Lenders under such Incremental Term Loans, then such financial maintenance covenant shall be added to the Term Facilities that remain outstanding after the issuance or incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans (to the extent not already benefitting from any similar financial maintenance covenant and to the extent that such financial maintenance covenant would be effective prior to the Latest Maturity Date for such Term Facilities) for the benefit of the Term Lenders thereunder (it being understood and agreed that the applicable Borrower may, at its option, deliver a certificate to the Administrative Agent certifying that the requirements of the provisos to this clause (ii) have been satisfied at least three (3) Business Days prior to the incurrence of such Indebtedness, and such certification shall be conclusive evidence that such requirements have been satisfied unless the Administrative Agent provides notice to the applicable Borrower of its objection during such three (3) Business Day period (including a reasonable description of the basis upon which it objects));

(iii) all material terms (other than with respect to margin, pricing, maturity or fees) of any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and Incremental Revolving Credit Loans under such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be identical to the Class of Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans to which they are being added or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; it being understood and agreed that covenants or other provisions applicable only to the periods after the Latest Maturity Date of any then-existing Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans shall be acceptable, subject, solely as to administrative matters to the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided, however, that (X) to the extent the terms and conditions of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are not consistent with one or more of the existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility or any other existing Revolving Credit Facility (except to the extent permitted pursuant to clause (i) or clause (iii)(Y) below), such terms and conditions may differ if reasonably satisfactory to the Parent and the Administrative Agent, or (Y) in the event such terms are more favorable (taken as a whole) to the Incremental Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, (A) the Borrowers shall have the right to unilaterally provide the existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders or existing Lender under any other existing Revolving Credit Facility with additional rights and benefits and the “identical to” or not “reasonably acceptable” requirement of the preceding proviso and compliance therewith shall be determined after giving effect to such additional rights and benefits and (B) to the extent that an additional financial maintenance covenant is added for the benefit of the Lenders with such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, then such financial maintenance covenant shall be added to the existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility and any other existing Revolving Credit Facility that remains outstanding after such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments become effective (to the extent not already benefitting from any similar financial maintenance covenant and to the

104

extent that such financial maintenance covenant would be effective prior to the Latest Maturity Date for such Facilities) for the benefit of the existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders thereunder or existing Revolving Credit Lenders under such other existing Revolving Credit Facilities (it being understood and agreed that the Parent may, at its option, deliver a certificate to the Administrative Agent certifying that the requirements of the provisos to this clause (iv) have been satisfied at least three (3) Business Days prior to the incurrence of such Indebtedness, and such certification shall be conclusive evidence that such requirements have been satisfied unless the Administrative Agent provides notice to the Parent of its objection during such three (3) Business Day period (including a reasonable description of the basis upon which it objects));

(iv) with respect to any Incremental Term Loan or New Revolving Credit Commitments, the All-In Yield applicable to such Incremental Term Loans or New Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, of each Class shall be determined by the applicable Borrower and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, and shall be set forth in each applicable Incremental Amendment; provided, however, that if the All-In Yield in respect of any such Class of pro rata Incremental Term Loans incurred on or prior to the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date exceeds the All-In Yield in respect of any then-existing Initial Term A Loans by more than 0.50%, the Applicable Margin of such then-existing Initial Term A Loans shall be adjusted such that the All-In Yield of such then-existing Initial Term A Loans equals the All-In Yield of such Indebtedness minus 0.50%; provided that any amendments to the Applicable Margin in respect of any then-existing Initial Term A Loans that become effective subsequent to the Closing Date but prior to the time of such Indebtedness is incurred or borrowed shall also be included in such calculations, effective upon the making of loans under such Indebtedness; provided, further, that if such Indebtedness includes a LIBOR Rate floor greater than 0.00% per annum or an ABR floor greater than 1.00% per annum, such differential between the LIBOR Rate floor or the ABR floor, as the case may be, shall be equated to the applicable All-In Yield for purposes of determining whether an increase to the interest rate margin under the Initial Term A Loans shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the LIBOR Rate floor or ABR floor in the Initial Term A Loans, as the case may be, would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case, the LIBOR Rate floor or ABR floor (but not the interest rate margin), applicable to the Initial Term A Loans shall be increased to the extent of such differential between the LIBOR Rate floors or ABR floors, as the case may be; and

(v) to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are made in the form of a Term Loan Increase or are Incremental Term Loans with the same terms as the Initial Term A Loans made on the Closing Date, (i) the scheduled amortization payments under Section 2.07(a) required to be made after the making of such Incremental Term Loans shall be ratably increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans and shall be further increased for all Lenders on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary to avoid any reduction in the amortization payments to which the Term Lenders were entitled before such recalculation and (ii) in the event that, prior to the incurrence of any Incremental Term Loans made in the form of a Term Loan Increase or Incremental Term Loans with the same terms as the Initial Term A Loans made on the Closing Date, the Initial Term A Loans made on the Closing Date, pursuant to any other Term Loan Increase or any other Incremental Term Loans made on the same terms as the Initial Term A Loans made on the Closing Date have scheduled amortization payments under Section 2.07(a) that are less than 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Initial Term A Loans when initially incurred, then the scheduled amortization payments on the Incremental Facility Closing Date of such Incremental Term Loans shall be increased to be equal quarterly installments of principal equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Initial Term A Loans originally incurred.

105

(f) Incremental Amendment. Commitments in respect of Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall become Commitments (or in the case of an Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment to be provided by an existing Revolving Credit Lender, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Revolving Credit Commitment), under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the applicable Borrower, each Incremental Lender providing such Commitments and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Loan Party, Agent or Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.14. The applicable Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the financing of Permitted Acquisitions and other Investments permitted hereby and any other use not prohibited by the Loan Documents, in each case as determined by the applicable Borrower and the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, unless it so agrees.

(g) Implementation of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments. Upon any Incremental Facility Closing Date:

(i) on which Revolving Credit Commitment Increases are effected through an increase in any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.14, (i) each of the existing Revolving Credit Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments in the affected Class shall assign to each of the Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, and each of the Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders shall purchase from each of those Revolving Credit Lenders, at the principal amount thereof and (ii) each of the existing Revolving Credit Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments in the that Class immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender providing a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, and each such Incremental Revolving Credit Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such existing Revolving Credit Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit issued in respect of such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments such that, after giving effect to each such assignment and purchase of Loans and each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations in Letters of Credit in respect of that Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, all of the Revolving Credit Lenders’ (including each Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Lender) participate hereunder in (i) outstanding Borrowings of Revolving Credit Loans of that Class of Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) Letters of Credit in respect of that Class of Revolving Credit Commitments and (iii) the existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility Lenders of the applicable Class pro rata on the basis of their respective Revolving Credit Commitments of that Class (after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase);

(ii) on which New Revolving Credit Commitments of a new Class are made available pursuant to this Section 2.14:

(A) the borrowing and repayment (except for (I) payments of interest and fees at different rates on the existing Revolving Credit Facilities and such New Revolving Credit Commitments, (II) repayments required upon the Maturity Date of any then-existing Revolving Credit Facility and such New Revolving Credit Commitments New Revolving Credit Commitments and (III) repayments made in connection with any permanent repayment and termination of New Revolving Credit Commitments (subject to clause (C) below)) after the effective date of such New Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with any then-existing Revolving Credit Facility;

106

(B) all Letters of Credit made or issued, as applicable, under such New Revolving Credit Commitments shall be issued to the extent reasonably practical on a pro rata basis between any then-existing Revolving Credit Facility and such New Revolving Credit Commitments; and

(C) the permanent repayment of Revolving Credit Loans with respect to, and termination of Commitments under, any then-existing Revolving Credit Facility and such New Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis, except that the Borrowers shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate Commitments under such New Revolving Credit Commitments on a greater than pro rata basis as compared with any other Revolving Credit Facility with a later Maturity Date than such New Revolving Credit Commitments, either at the time of incurrence of such New Revolving Credit Commitments or on the date such other Revolving Credit Facility is subsequently made available after the incurrence of such New Revolving Credit Commitments;

(iii) each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Credit Commitment and each Loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Credit Loan; and

(iv) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment Increases and all matters relating thereto.

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to this clause (g).

(h) This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

Section 2.15. Refinancing Amendments.

(a) On one or more occasions after the Closing Date, a Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Refinancing Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of the Term Loans and the Revolving Credit Loans (or unused Revolving Credit Commitments) then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this Section 2.15(a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Refinancing Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans), in the form of Refinancing Term Loans, Refinancing Term Commitments, Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments or Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans incurred under this Agreement pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Indebtedness shall be subject to the DAM Exchange (and the holders of any such Indebtedness or commitments in respect of such Indebtedness shall have become a party to the Re-Allocation Agreement, by execution and delivery of a joinder thereto or other arrangement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent); provided, further, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.15 or otherwise, (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the Refinancing Revolving Credit

107

Commitments and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (3) below)) of Loans with respect to Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments after the date of obtaining any Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Credit Commitments, (2) subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(m) to the extent dealing with Letters of Credit that mature or expire after a maturity date when there exist Extended Revolving Credit Commitments with a longer maturity date, all Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitments (and except as provided in Section 2.03(m), without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier maturity date with respect to Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued), (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving Credit Loans with respect to, and termination of, Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments after the date of obtaining any Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Credit Commitments, except that each Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class and (4) assignments and participations of Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans.

(b) Each issuance of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness under Section 2.15(a) shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less than the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 and (y) an integral multiple of the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto and (ii) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of the third paragraph of Section 10.01 (without the consent of the Required Lenders called for therein) and (iii) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.15, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Refinancing Amendment.

(d) This Section 2.15 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

Section 2.16. Extension of Term Loans; Extension of Revolving Credit Loans.

(a) Extension of Term Loans. Each Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Term Loans of a given Class (each, an “Existing Term Loan Tranche”) be amended to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Term Loans (any such Term Loans which have been so amended, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.16. In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the applicable Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche and (y) except as to interest rates, fees (including upfront fees or OID), amortization, final maturity date, “AHYDO” payments and optional prepayments (including any premiums payable in connection therewith), which shall be determined by the Borrower and the Extending Term Lenders and set forth in the relevant Term Loan Extension Request, be

108

substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable to the Extending Term Lenders than those applicable to the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Term Loan Extension Request (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans), including: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided, however, that at no time shall there be Classes of Term Loans hereunder (including Refinancing Term Loans and Extended Term Loans) that have more than five different Maturity Dates; (ii) the All-In Yield with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, OID or otherwise) may be different from the All-In Yield for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); (iv) Extended Term Loans may have call protection as may be agreed by the applicable Borrower and the Lenders thereof; and (v) the Extended Term Loans shall be subject to the DAM Exchange (and the holders of such Indebtedness shall have become a party to the Re-Allocation Agreement, by execution and delivery of a joinder thereto or other arrangement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent); provided, however, that (A) [reserved], (B) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche, (C) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche, (D) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing and (E) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Term Loan Extension Request. Any Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “Term Loan Extension Series”) of Extended Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Term Loans amended from an Existing Term Loan Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Term Loan Extension Series with respect to such Existing Term Loan Tranche (in which case scheduled amortization with respect thereto shall be proportionally increased). Each Term Loan Extension Series of Extended Term Loans incurred under this Section 2.16 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 (or, if less, the entire principal amount of the Indebtedness being extended pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)).

(b) Extension of Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Class (each, an “Existing Revolver Tranche”) be amended to extend the Maturity Date with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Revolving Credit Commitments (any such Revolving Credit Commitments which have been so amended, “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.16. In order to establish any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the applicable Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Revolver Tranche) (each, a “Revolver Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche and (y) except as to interest rates,

109

fees (including upfront fees or OID), optional redemption or prepayment terms (including any premium payable in connection therewith), final maturity, and after the final maturity date, any other covenants and provisions (which shall be determined by the Borrower and the Extending Revolving Credit Lenders and set forth in the relevant Revolver Extension Request), the Extended Revolving Credit Commitment extended pursuant to a Revolver Extension Request, and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Credit Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with such other terms substantially identical to, or taken as a whole, no more favorable to the Extending Revolving Credit Lender than the original Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (i) the Maturity Date of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be delayed to a later date than the Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Existing Revolver Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided, however, that at no time shall there be Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) that have more than five different Maturity Dates; (ii) the All-In Yield with respect to extensions of credit under the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, OID or otherwise) may be different from the All-In Yield, pricing or prepayment terms, for extensions of credit under the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Existing Revolver Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants (as determined by the applicable Borrower and Lenders extending) and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments); (iv) all borrowings under the applicable Revolving Credit Commitments (i.e., the Existing Revolver Tranche and the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Revolver Extension Series) and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (I) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings), (II) repayments required upon the Maturity Date of the non-extending Revolving Credit Commitments and (III) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of non-extended Revolving Credit Commitments); and (v) the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be subject to the DAM Exchange (and the holders of such commitments shall have become a party to the Re-Allocation Agreement, by execution and delivery of a joinder thereto or other arrangement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent); provided, further, that (A) [reserved], (B) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Revolver Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date of any other Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder and (C) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing. Any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments amended pursuant to any Revolver Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “Revolver Extension Series”) of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments amended from an Existing Revolver Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Revolver Extension Series with respect to such Existing Revolver Tranche. Each Revolver Extension Series of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments incurred under this Section 2.16 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 (or, if less, the entire principal amount of the Indebtedness being extended pursuant to this Section 2.16(b)).

(c) Extension Request. The applicable Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, are requested to respond (or such shorter period as agreed by the Administrative Agent), and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.16. Subject to Section 3.07, no Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Tranche amended into Extended Term Loans or any of its Revolving

110

Credit Commitments amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender holding a Loan under an Existing Term Loan Tranche (each, an “Extending Term Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Term Loans and any Revolving Credit Lender (each, an “Extending Revolving Credit Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, which it has elected to request be amended into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, in respect of which applicable Term Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, requested to be extended pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be amended to Extended Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by the Administrative Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, included in each such Extension Election.

(d) Extension Amendment. Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Extending Term Lender or Extending Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, providing an Extended Term Loan or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, thereunder, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.16(a) or 2.16(b) above, respectively (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender). The effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery of a Committed Loan Notice) and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, incurred pursuant thereto, (ii) modify the scheduled repayments set forth in Section 2.07 with respect to any Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to an Extension Election to reflect a reduction in the principal amount of the Term Loans thereunder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to the applicable Extension (with such amount to be applied ratably to reduce scheduled repayments of such Term Loans required pursuant to Section 2.07), (iii) modify the prepayments set forth in Section 2.05 to reflect the existence of the Extended Term Loans and the application of prepayments with respect thereto, (iv) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of the third paragraph of Section 10.01 (without the consent of the Required Lenders called for therein) and (v) effect such other amendments to

111

this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.16, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Extension Amendment.

(e) No conversion of Loans pursuant to any Extension in accordance with this Section 2.16 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement. This Section 2.16 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

Section 2.17. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuers hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the L/C Issuers, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the L/C Issuers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or any L/C Issuer against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

112

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.09(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit fees as provided in Section 2.03(h).

(iv) Reallocation of Pro Rata Share to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.03, the “Pro Rata Share” of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Effective Amount of the Loans of that Lender.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share (without giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties and subject to Section 10.21, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.18. Special Provisions Relating to a Re-Denomination Event.

(a) Multicurrency Revolving Loans and Unpaid Drawings.

(i) On the date of the occurrence of a Re-Denomination Event, automatically (and without the taking of any action), (A) all then outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency and all Unreimbursed Amounts and/or L/C Borrowings in respect of Letters of Credit issued for the account of any Borrower owed in an Alternative Currency, shall be automatically converted into Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans maintained in, and Unreimbursed Amounts and/or L/C Borrowings owing by such Borrower in, U.S. Dollars (in an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of the respective Loans or Unreimbursed Amounts and/or L/C Borrowings on the date such Re-Denomination Event first occurred, which Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans or Unreimbursed Amounts and/or L/C Borrowings (x) shall continue to be owed by such Borrower, (y) shall at all times thereafter be deemed to be ABR Loans and (z) shall be immediately due and payable on the date such Re-Denomination Event has occurred) and (B) all principal, accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing with respect to such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans and Unreimbursed Amounts and/or L/C Borrowings shall

113

be immediately due and payable in U.S. Dollars, taking the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such principal amount, accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts. The occurrence of any conversion of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans or Unreimbursed Amounts and/or L/C Borrowings to ABR Loans as provided above in this Section 2.18(a) shall be deemed to constitute, for purposes of Section 3.05, a prepayment of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans before the last day of any Interest Period relating thereto.

(ii) Upon and after the occurrence of a Re-Denomination Event, all amounts from time to time accruing with respect to, and all amounts from time to time payable on account of, Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency (including, without limitation, any interest and other amounts which were accrued but unpaid on the date of such Re-Denomination Event) and Unreimbursed Amounts and/or L/C Borrowings owing in an Alternative Currency shall be payable in U.S. Dollars (taking the U.S. Dollar Equivalents of all such amounts on the date of the occurrence of the respective Re-Denomination Event, with all calculations for periods after the Re-Denomination Event being made as if the respective such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan or Unreimbursed Amounts and/or L/C Borrowings had originally been made in U.S. Dollars) and shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent for the account of appropriate Lenders which made such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Borrowings or are participating therein.

(b) Notice of Re-Denomination. The Administrative Agent will, as soon as practicable after the occurrence thereof, notify the Parent and each Lender of any redenomination and conversion under this Section 2.18 (provided that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such redenomination and conversion).

Section 2.19. Parent as Borrower Representative.

Each Borrower (other than the Parent) hereby designates the Parent as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery of financial reports, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with the Administrative Agent or any Lender. The Parent hereby accepts such appointment. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication delivered by the Parent on behalf of any Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may give any notice or communication with a Borrower hereunder to the Parent on behalf of such Borrower. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with the Parent for any or all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by the Parent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, INCREASED COSTS PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

Section 3.01. Taxes.

(a) Payment Free of Taxes. Any and all payments made by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers (the term Borrower under Article III being deemed to include any Restricted Subsidiary for whose account a Letter of Credit is issued) or the Subsidiary Guarantors under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by

114

applicable Law. If any Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Administrative Agent or other applicable withholding agent shall be required by any applicable Law to deduct or withhold any Tax from any amount payable under any Loan Document (as determined in the good-faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent), then (i) the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, (ii) if the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax, the amount payable by the applicable Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after making such required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 3.01), each of such Agent or such Lender, as applicable receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. Within 30 days after the date of such payment of Taxes pursuant to this Section 3.01 (or, if receipts or evidence are not available within 30 days, as soon as possible thereafter), if the applicable Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor is the applicable withholding agent, it shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, a copy of the return reporting such payment, or other evidence reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes. In addition, the applicable Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Loan Party Indemnification for Taxes. The Borrowers and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall jointly and severally indemnify each applicable Agent and each applicable Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by such Agent or such Lender or required to be deducted or withheld from a payment to such Agent or such Lender and (ii) any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared in good faith and delivered to the applicable Borrower by such Agent or Lender (or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of such Lender) accompanied by a written statement thereof setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts shall be conclusive absent manifest error. For the avoidance of doubt, a Borrower shall only be liable under this Section 3.01(c) for amounts relating to its respective Obligations and not for amounts relating to the Obligations of another Borrower.

(d) Status of Lenders. Each Lender shall, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law and at the time or times as are reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent with such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Law or reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under the Loan Documents or as will enable the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding, including backup withholding, or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.01(d), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form or certification pursuant to this Section 3.01(d) (other than the documentation set forth in Section 3.01(d)(i), (d)(ii) and (d)(iv)) (x) that such Lender is not legally entitled to deliver or (y) if in such Lender’s reasonable judgment the completion, execution or submission of such form or certification would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Without limiting the foregoing:

115

(i) Each Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent) two executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from federal backup withholding Tax.

(ii) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

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

(B) two executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender (lending to a Borrower in the United States) claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the applicable Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms), or

(D) to the extent a Foreign Lender (lending to a Borrower in the United States) is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership), two executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Lender, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a United States Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit X-0, Xxxx X-0, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable (provided that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a United States Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner).

(iii)

(A) Subject to Section 3.01(d)(iii)(B), a UK Treaty Lender and each Loan Party which makes a payment under a Loan Document to which that UK Treaty Lender is entitled shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for such Loan Party to obtain authorization to make that payment without a UK Tax Deduction, including making and filing of an appropriate application for relief under an applicable Treaty.

116

(B) A UK Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC Double Taxation Treaty Passport Scheme (“UK DTTP Scheme”) and which wishes the UK DTTP Scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in: (A) where the UK Treaty Lender is a Lender on the date of this Agreement, Schedule 1.01(b) to this Agreement; or (B) where the UK Treaty Lender becomes a Lender after the date of this Agreement, the relevant Assignment and Assumption, and, having done so, that UK Treaty Lender shall be under no obligation pursuant to Section 3.01(d)(iii)(A) to cooperate with the relevant Loan Party but for the avoidance of doubt that UK Treaty Lender shall have an obligation to cooperate further with the relevant Loan Party in accordance with Section 3.01(d)(iii)(C).

(C) If a UK Treaty Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with Section 3.01(d)(iii)(B) and:

(1) a Loan Party making a payment to that UK Treaty Lender has not made a UK DTTP Filing in respect of that UK Treaty Lender; or

(2) a Loan Party making a payment to that UK Treaty Lender has made a UK DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender but either (a) that UK DTTP Filing has been rejected by HMRC or (b) HMRC has not given the Loan Party authority to make payments to that UK Treaty Lender without a UK Tax Deduction within 60 Business Days of the date of the UK DTTP Filing, and in each case, the relevant Loan Party has notified that UK Treaty Lender in writing, that UK Treaty Lender and the Loan Party shall cooperate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for that Loan Party to obtain authorization to make that payment without a UK Tax Deduction.

(D) If a Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with Section 3.01(d)(iii)(B), no Loan Party shall make a UK DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the UK DTTP Scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment or participation in any Loan unless the Lender otherwise agrees.

(E) A Loan Party shall, promptly after making a UK DTTP Filing, deliver a copy of the UK DTTP Filing to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the relevant Lender.

(F) A Lender that is a Lender on the date of this Agreement that is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of sub-paragraph (b) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender gives a UK Tax Confirmation to the English Borrower by entering into the Agreement. A Lender that is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of sub-paragraph (b) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender shall promptly notify the Parent and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set out in the UK Tax Confirmation.

117

(G) Each Lender shall indicate, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and any relevant Loan Party, but without liability to any Loan Party, whether it is:

(1) not a UK Qualifying Lender;

(2) a UK Qualifying Lender (that is not a UK Treaty Lender); or

(3) a UK Treaty Lender,

in (x) where the Lender is a Lender on the date of this Agreement, Schedule 1.01(b) to this Agreement; or (y) where the Lender becomes a Lender after the date of this Agreement, the relevant Assignment and Assumption. If a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 3.01(d)(iii)(G)) then such Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Loan Party) as if it is not a UK Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Parent and the Administrative Agent which category applies. For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Assumption and shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 3.01(d)(iii)(G). Any Lender that ceases to be a UK Qualifying Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent.

(iv) FATCA: If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Laws and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Laws (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.01(d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(v) Foreign Lender Exemption: Except in relation to any Loan to the English Borrower, any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine withholding or deduction required to be made.

(vi) Update of forms and certifications: Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

118

(e) Mitigation. If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.01, then such Lender will, if requested by a Borrower, use its commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, result in any unreimbursed cost or expense, require any action that is inconsistent with legal or regulatory restrictions or be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund in respect of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified or additional amounts have been paid to it by a Loan Party pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall promptly remit such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments or additional amounts paid by the Loan Party under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes imposed on the receipt of such refund) of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund net of any Taxes payable by any Agent or Lender on such interest); provided that the Loan Parties, upon the request of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, agree promptly to return the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 3.01(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, further, that in no event will the Lender or Agent be required to pay any amount to a Loan Party pursuant to this clause (f) the payment of which would place the Lender or Agent in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender or Agent would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 3.01(f) shall not be construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other person.

(g) Lender Indemnification for Taxes. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.07(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are directly or indirectly payable or paid by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise in connection with any Loan Document, and all expenses, including legal expenses and other out-of-pocket expenses, arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (g).

(h) Value Added Tax.

(i) All amounts expressed to be payable under a Loan Document by any party to this Agreement to an Arranger, a bookrunner, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the UK Security Trustee, a Lender or an L/C Issuer (a “Finance Party”) which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to clause (h)(ii)

119

below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any party to this Agreement under a Loan Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that party to this Agreement must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that party).

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

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

(B) (where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.

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

(iv) Any reference in this Section 3.01(h) to any party shall, at any time when such party is treated as a member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated at that time as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under the grouping rules (as provided for in Article 11 of the Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union) or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member state of the European Union) so that a reference to a party shall be construed as a reference to that party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant representative member (or head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be).

(v) In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any party under a Loan Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that party’s VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party’s VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

120

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(j) Lender includes L/C Issuer. For purposes of this Section 3.01, the term “Lender” includes any L/C Issuer, and the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA.

Section 3.02. Illegality. If any Lender determines in good faith that any Law or guideline has made it unlawful or impermissible, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful or impermissible under any such guideline, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Rate Loans (whether denominated in U.S. Dollars or an Alternative Currency), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate, in each case after the Closing Date, then, on written notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Rate Loans or to convert ABR Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars to LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower shall promptly following written demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), (a) with respect to Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, prepay or, if applicable, convert all applicable LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully and in accordance with guidelines continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully or in accordance with guidelines continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans and (b) with respect to Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, (A) upon receipt of such notification, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in such Alternative Currency, (B) each Eurocurrency Loan of such Lender denominated in such Alternative Currency will automatically be converted to a Daily Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor or, if earlier, on the date specified by such Lender in such notification (which date shall be no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by applicable law) and (C) the obligation of such Lender to make or continue affected Eurocurrency Loans denominated in such Alternative Currency or to convert Loans into Eurocurrency Loans denominated in such Alternative Currency shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall notify the Parent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion under Section 3.05. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

Section 3.03. Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative Agent determines, or is notified by the Required Lenders, after the Closing Date that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the applicable LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan (whether denominated in U.S. Dollars or an Alternative Currency), or that the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, or that deposits in U.S. Dollars or the applicable Alternative Currency are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar, or other applicable, market for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such LIBOR Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers in writing and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans in the

121

relevant currency shall be suspended and (y) in the event a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the LIBOR Rate component of the ABR, the utilization of the LIBOR Rate component in determining the ABR shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of such LIBOR Rate Loans or, failing that, (i) in the case of Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans (which shall be calculated in accordance with clause (y) of the immediately preceding sentence, if applicable) in the amount specified therein and (ii) in the case of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, unless the Administrative Agent, the relevant Revolving Credit Lenders and the applicable Borrower otherwise agree to a substitute rate that is selected to reflect such Revolving Credit Lenders’ cost of funding such Revolving Credit Loan (in which case, such substitute rate shall be deemed to be the “LIBOR Rate” for the applicable Borrowing), such Revolving Credit Loan shall be made in U.S. Dollars in an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent amount of the Alternative Currency amount of the requested Borrowing.

Section 3.04. Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; LIBOR Rate Loan Reserves.

(a) If any Lender (which, for purposes of this Section 3.04, shall include the L/C Issuers) reasonably determines that as a result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law or guideline, in each case after the Closing Date, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loans or (as the case may be) issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) (A) Indemnified Taxes indemnified pursuant to Section 3.01, (B) any Taxes described in clauses (b) through (f) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (C) “Connection Income Taxes,” and (ii) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)) and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining the LIBOR Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligations to make any Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, then from time to time within 15 Business Days after written demand by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail (which detail shall not be required to include any information to the extent disclosure thereof is prohibited by Law) such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for all purposes under this Agreement, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in Law or guideline, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued; provided that increased costs because of a change in a Law or guideline resulting from the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Basel III may only be requested by a Lender imposing such increased costs on similarly situated borrowers under syndicated credit facilities comparable to those provided hereunder.

(b) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law or guideline regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, in each case after the Closing Date, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies

122

with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time promptly following written demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail (which detail shall not be required to include any information to the extent disclosure thereof is prohibited by Law) the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction within 10 Business Days after receipt of such demand.

(c) Each Borrower shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves, capital or liquidity with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loan of that Borrower equal to the actual costs of such reserves, capital or liquidity allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio, capital or liquidity requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of any Eurocurrency Rate Loans of that Borrower, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided that the applicable Borrower shall have received at 10 Business Days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice at least 10 Business Days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable 10 Business Days from receipt of such notice.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.04 to the extent that such Lender or Agent fails to make a demand for such compensation more than nine months after becoming aware of its right to such compensation.

(e) If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.04, then such Lender will, if requested by the Borrowers, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 3.04(e) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a), (b), (c) or (d).

Section 3.05. Funding Losses. Promptly following written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, each Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense actually incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Loan of that Borrower on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

(b) any failure by that Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to pay, prepay, borrow, continue or convert any LIBOR Rate Loan of that Borrower on the date or in the amount notified by that Borrower;

123

including any loss or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits) arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for the applicable currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

Section 3.06. Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation.

(a) Any Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article III shall deliver a certificate to the applicable Borrower setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(b) With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation for any amounts under Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04, a Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for the interest and penalties with respect to such amounts if such Lender notifies the applicable Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim more than 180 days after such event; provided that if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. If any Lender requests compensation by a Borrower under Section 3.04, that Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another applicable LIBOR Rate Loan, or, if applicable, to convert ABR Loans into LIBOR Rate Loans, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.06(c) shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

(c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue any LIBOR Rate Loan, or to convert ABR Loans into LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.06(b) hereof, such Lender’s applicable LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically converted into ABR Loans (or, if such conversion is not possible, repaid) on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such LIBOR Rate Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by Section 3.02, on such earlier date as required by Law or guidelines) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

(i) to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Rate Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s applicable LIBOR Rate Loans shall be applied instead to its ABR Loans; and

(ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by such Lender as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be made or continued instead as ABR Loans (if possible), and all ABR Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into LIBOR Rate Loans shall remain as ABR Loans.

(d) If any Lender gives notice to any Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of any of such Lender’s LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.06 no longer exist

124

(which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Rate Loans made by other Lenders under the applicable Facility are outstanding, if applicable, such Lender’s ABR Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Rate Loans under such Facility and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments for the applicable Facility.

Section 3.07. Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances.

(a) If at any time (i) any Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments described in Section 3.01 or 3.04 as a result of any condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make any LIBOR Rate Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.02 or 3.04 or requires a Borrower to pay additional amounts as a result thereof, (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrowers may, on five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.07(b) (so long as the assignment fee is paid in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (which shall only apply in respect of any applicable Facility (and not all Facilities hereunder) only in the case of clause (i) or, in the case of a Non-Consenting Lender with respect to a vote of directly and adversely affected Lenders or all Lenders of a Class (“Affected Class”), clause (iii)); provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrowers to find a replacement Lender or other such Person; provided, further, that (A) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (B) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable Eligible Assignees shall have agreed to, and shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting Lenders) to cause the adoption of, the applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents.

(b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 3.07(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s applicable Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations in respect thereof, and (ii) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations, (B) all obligations of the applicable Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loans, Commitments and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Assumption and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the applicable Borrower, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender. In connection with any such replacement, if any such Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Assumption reflecting such replacement within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption to such Lender, then such Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption without any action on the part of the Lender.

125

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, any Lender that acts as an L/C Issuer may not be replaced hereunder at any time that it has any Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (including the furnishing of a back-up standby letter of credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer, reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer or Cash Collateral) have been made in respect of such outstanding Letters of Credit and the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 9.06.

(d) In the event that (i) the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent have requested that the Lenders consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or agree to any amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of each affected Lender or each Lender of a Class in accordance with the terms of Section 10.01 or an Affected Class or all Lenders holding Term Loans subject to a Permitted Repricing Amendment and (iii) the Required Lenders (and, in the case of a consent, waiver or amendment (1) involving all of an Affected Class, at least 50.1% of such Affected Class or (2) involving a Permitted Repricing Amendment, all other Lenders holding a tranche of Term Loans subject to such repricing that will continue as repriced or modified Term Loans) 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 3.08. Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

ARTICLE IX

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER AGENTS

Section 9.01. Appointment and Authority.

(a) Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as its Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental or related thereto. The provisions of this Article IX (other than Sections 9.01, 9.06 and 9.09 through and including 9.12) are solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and no Loan Party has rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents (and for purposes of this Agreement, the term “Collateral Agent” shall include Credit Suisse AG Cayman Islands Branch in its capacity as the UK Security Trustee under the laws of England and Wales and as agent or trustee in relation to any Collateral Documents under the laws of any other jurisdiction other than those of any State of the United States), and each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Bank) and the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and L/C Issuer for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and as UK Security Trustee and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX and Article X (including the second paragraph of Section 10.05), as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” or UK Security Trustee under the Loan Documents as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to (i) execute any and all documents (including releases and Customary Intercreditor Agreements) with respect to the Collateral and the Guaranties (including any amendment, supplement, modification or joinder with respect thereto) and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders and (ii) negotiate, enforce or settle any claim, action or proceeding affecting the Lenders in their capacity as such, at the direction of the Required Lenders, which negotiation, enforcement or settlement will be binding upon each Lender.

173

Section 9.02. Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 9.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Collateral Agent and the UK Security Trustee shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s or the UK Security Trustee’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may (i) expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law or (ii) be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law;

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;

(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an L/C Issuer; and

(e) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder

174

or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it in good faith to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance, extension or increase of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 9.05. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article IX shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may from time to time use one or more outside service providers for the tracking of all UCC financing statements (and/or other Collateral-related filings and registrations from time to time) required to be filed or recorded pursuant to the Loan Documents and the notification to the Administrative Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that each of such service providers will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of the Parent and the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider.

Section 9.06. Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrowers at all times other than upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or 8.01(f) (which consent of the Borrowers shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the

175

retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above (including consent of the Borrowers); provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuers directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 9.06. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative 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 9.06). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Section 9.07. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 9.08. No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or L/C Issuer hereunder.

Section 9.09. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation 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 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, L/C Obligations and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable

176

compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h), 2.03(i), 2.09, 10.04 and 10.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09, 10.04 and 10.05.

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

Section 9.10. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the UK Security Trustee are each hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Collateral Documents which may be necessary to create, perfect and maintain perfected security interests in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents. Each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the UK Security Trustee, at its option, and in its sole discretion:

(a) to enter into and sign for and on behalf of the Lenders as Secured Parties the Collateral Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties;

(b) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by such Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent obligations and Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized or otherwise backstopped) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized or as to which other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the UK Security Trustee and the L/C Issuers shall have been made), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is Disposed or to be Disposed as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders or (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to Section 9.10(d);

177

(c) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by such Agent under any Loan Document to another Lien (i) permitted to exist on such property and (ii) to be senior to the Liens of the Secured Parties under this Agreement; and

(d) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder; provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, any Junior Financing or any other Indebtedness having an aggregate principal amount in excess of the Threshold Amount.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or the UK Security Trustee at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing such Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10. In each case as specified in this Section 9.10, such Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes each such Agent to), at the applicable Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10.

Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the UK Security Trustee and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or the UK Security Trustee, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents (other than any Guarantee in favor of the Administrative Agent, which may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent) may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent or the UK Security Trustee, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof, (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Collateral Agent or the UK Security Trustee, as applicable, on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code), the Collateral Agent, the UK Security Trustee or any Lender (except, in each case, with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code) may, in its own capacity and not as an agent for the other Lenders or Secured Parties, be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and (iii) the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from the Required Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

Section 9.11. Secured Treasury Services Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Guaranty or any Collateral Document, no Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 8.03, any Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guaranty or any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender

178

and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Treasury Services Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Secured Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, from the applicable Bank.

The Banks hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any Customary Intercreditor Agreement, any other intercreditor agreement permitted under this Agreement, and any amendment, modification, supplement or joinder with respect thereto, and any such Customary Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement is binding upon the Banks.

Section 9.12. Lender Representation Regarding ERISA.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true: (i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans; (ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans and this Agreement; (iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans and this Agreement; or (iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.01, guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by the Loan Parties or the Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrowers without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Law or advice of local counsel or (ii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the consent of the Borrowers and the Required Revolving Lenders shall be necessary to (i) amend, modify or waive any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit or any increase in the Letter of Credit Sublimit or (ii) (except for any amendment, waiver or modification that would require the consent of each Revolving Credit Lender adversely affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to Section 10.01), amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement that solely affects the Revolving Credit Lenders in respect of any Revolving Credit Facility, including the final scheduled maturity, interest, fees, prepayment penalties and voting.

All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

Section 10.03. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender, any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuers; provided, however,

187

that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any L/C Issuer from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.09 (subject to the terms of Section 2.13) or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Borrowers of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of similarly situated affected Indemnitees), joint or several, of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment, Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom including any refusal by an L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (c) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any property or facility currently owned, leased or operated by the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary, or any Environmental Liability relating to any Loan Party or Subsidiary, or (d) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) (a “Proceeding”) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto or whether or not such Proceeding is brought by a Borrower or any other person and, in each case, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of the Indemnitee or its Related Parties; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available (i) to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any of its controlled Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, advisors or other representatives, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, (y) a material breach of any obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by such Indemnitee or any of its controlled Affiliates, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (z) any dispute solely among Indemnitees other than any claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the UK Security Trustee, an Arranger or any other Agent or as an L/C Issuer, or in each case any similar role under any Facility and other than any claims arising out of any act or omission of the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates or (ii) with respect to any settlement entered into by an Indemnitee without the Borrowers’ written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but, if such settlement occurs with Borrowers’ written consent or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any action or claim with respect to any of the foregoing, the Borrowers will be liable for such settlement or for such final judgment. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement, in each case, except to the extent any such damages are found in a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or a material breach of any obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by, such Indemnitee or any of its controlled Affiliates, nor shall any Indemnitee or any Loan Party, Subsidiary or their respective officers, directors, employees, partners, agents, advisors and other representatives of each of the foregoing and their respective successors have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date); it being agreed that this sentence shall not limit the indemnification obligations of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary (including, in the case of any Loan Party, in respect of any such damages incurred or paid by an Indemnitee to a third party and for any out-of-pocket expenses). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, any Subsidiary of any Loan Party, its directors, equity holders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a

189

party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents are consummated. By accepting the benefits hereof, each Indemnitee agrees to refund and return any and all amounts paid by either Borrower to such Indemnitee to the extent items in clauses (x) through (z) above occur. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be paid within 30 days following receipt by either Borrower of written demand therefor (together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request). The agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.05 shall not apply to Taxes, except any Taxes that represent liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, prepayments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements arising from any non-Tax claims.

To the extent that either Borrower for any reason fails to pay any amount required under this Section 10.05 or Section 10.04 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuers or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuers or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the L/C Issuers in their capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or any L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(e).

Section 10.06. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of either Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 10.07. Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that each Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (except as permitted by Section 7.04), and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Assignee pursuant to an assignment made in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(b) (such an assignee, an “Eligible Assignee”), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(e), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(g) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions

190

of Section 10.07(h), and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender may assign or transfer by participation any of its rights or obligations hereunder to (w) a Disqualified Lender, (x) any Person that is a Defaulting Lender, (y) a natural Person or (z) the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.07(e) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation with respect to, and shall bear no responsibility or liability for, the monitoring or enforcing of the DQ List (or any provisions relating thereto) at any time and (ii) the Administrative Agent may share the DQ List with any Lender on a confidential basis upon request; provided that such Lender agrees to keep such identity confidential. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 10.07(a) above and Section 10.07(b)(ii) below, any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.07(b), participations in L/C Obligations) at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of:

(A) the Borrowers; provided that (I) notice of an assignment of all or a portion of the Term Loans shall be provided to the English Borrower (but, for the avoidance of doubt, the consent of the Borrowers shall not be required for any such assignment, and any failure to provide such notice shall not invalidate any such assignment) and (II) no consent of the Borrowers shall be required for (1) an assignment of all or a portion of any Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Exposure to a Revolving Credit Lender, an Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Lender or any Approved Fund thereof or (2) an assignment after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or Section 8.01(f); provided that the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment (i) of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, (ii) of all or any portion of any Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Exposure to a Revolving Credit Lender, an Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Lender or any Approved Fund thereof, or (iii) from an Agent to its Affiliates; and

(C) each L/C Issuer at the time of such assignment; provided that no consent of the L/C Issuers shall be required for any assignment not related to Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Exposure.

191

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent any Lender is required to assign any portion of its Commitments, Loans and other rights, duties and obligations hereunder in order to comply with applicable Laws, such assignment may be made by such Lender without the consent of the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any other party hereto so long as such Lender complies with the requirements of Section 10.07(b)(ii).

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 (or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) (in the case of each Revolving Credit Loan) and $1,000,000 (or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) (in the case of a Term Loan) unless each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; provided that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

(B) the parties to each assignment shall (1) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent or (2) if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together, in each case, with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent);

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and

(D) the Assignee shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower the documentation described in Section 3.01(d) applicable to it.

This Section 10.07(b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis among such Facilities.

In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or sub-participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

192

(c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, (1) the Eligible 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 shall be required to acknowledge in writing to the Administrative Agent that it is bound by the terms of the Re-Allocation Agreement, and (2) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption and if the Eligible Assignee has expressly assumed, for the benefit of Borrowers, the assigning Lender’s obligations under the Re-Allocation Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement and under the Re-Allocation Agreement to the extent of such assignment and assumption (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Re-Allocation Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and shall cease to be a party to the Re-Allocation Agreement but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note, the applicable 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 Section 10.07(c) 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 Section 10.07(e).

(d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of each applicable Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and related interest amounts on) the Loans, L/C Obligations (specifying the Unreimbursed Amounts), L/C Borrowings and the amounts due under Section 2.03 owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 10.07(b)(ii)(B) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the Administrative Agent and, if required, the applicable Borrower and each L/C Issuer to such assignment and any applicable Tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) promptly record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 10.07(d). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the applicable Borrower, any Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 10.07(d) and Section 2.11 shall be construed so that all Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related Treasury Regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or of such Treasury Regulations).

(e) Any Lender may at any time, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Disqualified Lender, a Defaulting Lender, any Consolidated Party or any Affiliate of any Consolidated Party) (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 L/C Obligations) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under

193

this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) each applicable Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (iv) such Lender shall sell such participation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Re-Allocation 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 the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clauses (a) through (j) of the first proviso to Section 10.01 that requires the affirmative vote of such Lender. Subject to Section 10.07(f) and a Participant’s compliance with the requirements and the limitations of Section 3.01(d) (it being understood that any forms, information or other documentation required under such Sections shall be delivered to the participating Lender), each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections) to the same extent as if it were the applicable Lender of record party to such participation. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation or that is a Granting Lender, as the case may be, shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the applicable Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and SPC and the principal amounts of (and related interest amounts on) each Participant’s and SPC’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form within the meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or of such Treasury Regulations). The Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation or portion of the Loan (if funded by an SPC), as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 than the participating Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant.

(g) Any Lender may, without the consent of the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; 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) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated

194

to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) such SPC and the applicable Loan or any applicable part thereof, shall be appropriately reflected in the Participant Register. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) an SPC shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and the limitations of such Section), but neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the applicable Borrower under this Agreement except, in the case of Section 3.01, to the extent that the grant to the SPC was made with the prior written consent of the applicable Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; for the avoidance of doubt, the applicable Borrower shall have a reasonable basis for withholding consent if an exercise by an SPC immediately after the grant would result in materially increased indemnification obligation to the applicable Borrower at such time), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (1) any Lender may in accordance with applicable Law create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and a Note, if any, held by it and (2) any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and a Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any L/C Issuer may, upon 30 days’ notice to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 30-day period with respect to such resignation, the relevant L/C Issuer shall have identified a successor L/C Issuer reasonably acceptable to the applicable Borrower willing to accept its appointment as successor L/C Issuer. In the event of any such resignation of an L/C Issuer, the applicable Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders willing to accept such appointment a successor L/C Issuer hereunder; provided that no failure by the applicable Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the relevant L/C Issuer, except as expressly provided above. If an L/C Issuer resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make ABR Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)).

195

Section 10.08. Confidentiality. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ managers, administrators, directors, officers, employees, trustees, partners, investors, funding sources, investment advisers and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors on a “need to know basis” in connection with the transactions hereunder (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and agree to keep such Information confidential); provided that no such disclosure shall be made to such Persons that are Disqualified Lenders; (b) to the extent required or requested by any Governmental Authority or self-regulatory authority having or asserting jurisdiction over such Person (including any Governmental Authority regulating any Lender or its Affiliates); provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will notify the Borrowers as soon as practicable prior to such disclosure by such Person (other than at the request of a regulatory or self-regulatory authority in a routine or ordinary course examination) unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will notify the Borrowers as soon as practicable prior to such disclosure by such Person (other than at the request of a regulatory or self-regulatory authority in a routine or ordinary course examination) unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers), to (i) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty to a Swap Contract, or any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the applicable Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder (in each case, other than any Person whom the Borrowers have affirmatively denied to provide consent to assignment in accordance with Section 10.07(b)(i)(A)); (f) with the prior written consent of the Borrowers; (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08 or other obligation of confidentiality owed to the Borrowers or their Affiliates or becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the UK Security Trustee, any other Agent, any Arranger, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Loan Party or their respective Related Parties (so long as such source is not known (after due inquiry) to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the UK Security Trustee, such other Agent, such Arranger, such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates to be bound by confidentiality obligations to any Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates); (h) to any rating agency when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries received by it from such Lender) or to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization; (i) to the extent such information is independently developed by the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any Arranger, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates, in each case, so long as not based on the Information; (j) subject to an agreement containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers), to any pledgee referred to in Section 10.07(g); or (k) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of its rights hereunder or thereunder. In addition, the Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and publicly available information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration, settlement and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments and the Credit Extensions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for compliance with this Section 10.08 by any other Person (other than its partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and controlled Affiliates),

(ii) in no event shall any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Agent be obligated or required under this Section 10.08 to return any materials furnished by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) each Agent and each Lender may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration, settlement and management of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (iv) in no event shall any disclosure of Information be made to any Disqualified Lender. For the purposes of this Section 10.08, “Information” means all information received from or on behalf of the Loan Parties or their Affiliates relating to any Loan Party, its Affiliates or its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees, investment advisers or agents or any target of an acquisition or Investment, other than any such information that is publicly available to the applicable Agent, L/C Issuer or Lender prior to disclosure by or on behalf of any Loan Party or its Affiliates other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08 or any other confidentiality obligation owed to any Loan Party or their Affiliates.

Section 10.09. Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates (and the Administrative Agent, in respect of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses payable hereunder) is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to any Borrower, any such notice being waived by each Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) (other than escrow, payroll, xxxxx cash, trust and Tax accounts) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates or the Administrative Agent to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent and such Lender may have at Law.

Section 10.10. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

197

Section 10.11. Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by facsimile or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement and such other Loan Document. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by facsimile or other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by facsimile or other electronic transmission.

Section 10.12. Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. Subject to Section 10.20, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

Section 10.13. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

Section 10.14. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions; provided that the Lenders shall charge no fee in connection with any such amendment. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.14, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuers, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to the applicable Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law).

Each of the Guarantors further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended, increased or renewed, amended or modified, in whole or in part, without notice to, or further assent from, such Guarantor and that such Guarantor will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension, increase, renewal, amendment or modification of any Guaranteed Obligation.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws and except for termination or release of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms of Section 4.12 (but without prejudice to Section 2.04), the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any other Secured Party or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement; (iii) the release of, or any impairment of any security held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the Collateral held by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party; (vi) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Loan Party, the lack of legal existence of any Borrower or any other Guarantor or legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations by the English Borrower or any other Guarantor for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, in any insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Loan Party; (vii) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that any Guarantor may have at any time against any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any other Secured Party or any other Person, whether in connection with the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any unrelated transaction; (viii) this Agreement having been determined (on whatsoever grounds) to be invalid, non-binding or unenforceable against any other Guarantor ab initio or at any time after the Closing Date or (ix) any other circumstance (including statute of limitations), any act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a defense to, or discharge of, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety as a matter of law or equity (in each case, other than the payment in full in cash or performance of all the Guaranteed Obligations (excluding the Continuing Obligations)). Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the applicable Secured Parties, to the extent permitted by the applicable Collateral Document, to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Agreement shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations under this Agreement subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any comparable provisions of any similar federal or state law.

Exhibit A-1-6

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws and except for termination or release of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms of Section 4.12 (but without prejudice to Section 2.04), each Guarantor waives any defense (other than payment in full in cash or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations) based on or arising out of any defense of the English Borrower or any other Guarantor or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor, other than the payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations (excluding the Continuing Obligations). The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents, at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Borrower or any other Guarantor or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any Guarantor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations (excluding the Continuing Obligations) have been paid in full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Guarantor waives any defense (other than payment in full in cash or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations) arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable Laws, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any Borrower or any other Guarantor, as the case may be, or any security. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Guarantor waives any and all suretyship defenses.

Section 2.04 Reinstatement. Notwithstanding anything to contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the Guarantors agrees that (a) its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization (or any analogous proceeding in any jurisdiction) of any Borrower or any other Guarantor or otherwise and (b) the provisions of this Section 2.04 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.05 Agreement To Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the English Borrower or any other Guarantor to pay any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the applicable Secured Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Guaranteed Obligation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the English Borrower or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article III.

Section 2.06 Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the English Borrower’s and each other Guarantor’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of non-payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

Exhibit A-1-7

Article III

Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination

Section 3.01 Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any Guaranteed Obligations, all rights of such Guarantor against the English Borrower or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations (excluding the Continuing Obligations) and the termination of all Commitments to the English Borrower under the Credit Agreement. If any amount shall be paid to the English Borrower or any other Guarantor in violation of the foregoing restrictions on account of (i) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar right or (ii) any such indebtedness of the English Borrower or any other Guarantor, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited against the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, to the extent that any Guarantor shall, under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting Loans or other advances made to another Loan Party under the Credit Agreement (an “Accommodation Payment”), then the Guarantor making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Guarantors in an amount equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Guarantor’s Allocable Amount and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Guarantors; provided that such rights of contribution and indemnification shall be subordinated to the prior payment in full, in cash, of all of the Guaranteed Obligations (excluding the Continuing Obligations). As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Guarantor shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Guarantor hereunder and under the Credit Agreement without (a) rendering such Guarantor “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Guarantor with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Guarantor unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor or Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor or any Borrower and whether or not any other Guarantor or any Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Any payment required to be made by a Guarantor hereunder may be required by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party on any number of occasions.

Exhibit A-2-6

Section 2.03 No Limitations.

(a) Except for termination or release of a Guarantor’s respective obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 4.12 (but without prejudice to Section 2.04), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, the respective obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense (other than payment in full in cash or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations) (other than (x) contingent obligations in respect of which no assertion of liability (whether oral or written) and no claim or demand for payment (whether oral or written) has been made (and, in the case of Obligations for indemnification, no notice for indemnification has been issued by the indemnitee) at such time and (y) Cash Management Obligations and obligations pursuant to Secured Hedge Agreements, in each case, for which the applicable Bank and the applicable Consolidated Party have agreed that such Cash Management Obligations or Secured Hedge Agreements, as applicable, shall continue to remain outstanding after the termination and release pursuant to Section 4.12 hereof (collectively, the “Continuing Obligations”)) or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations, or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws and except for termination or release of a Guarantor’s respective obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms of Section 4.12 (but without prejudice to Section 2.04), the respective obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any other Secured Party or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement; (iii) the release of, or any impairment of any security held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the applicable Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations; (v) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the Collateral held by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party; (vi) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Loan Party, the lack of legal existence of any Borrower or any other Guarantor or legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or the Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable, by the English Borrower or the U.S. Borrower, as applicable, or any other Guarantor for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, in any insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Loan Party; (vii) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that any Guarantor may have at any time against any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any other Secured Party or any other Person, whether in connection with the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any unrelated transaction; (viii) this Agreement having been determined (on whatsoever grounds) to be invalid, non-binding or unenforceable against any other Guarantor ab initio or at any time after the Closing Date or (ix) any other circumstance (including statute of limitations), any act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a defense to, or discharge of, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety as a matter of law or equity (in each case, other than the payment in full in cash or performance of all the Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or the Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable (in each case, excluding the Continuing Obligations)). Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the applicable Secured Parties, to the extent permitted by the applicable Collateral Document, to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or the Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Guaranteed English Borrower

Exhibit A-2-7

Obligations and/or the Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable, all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Agreement shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations under this Agreement subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any comparable provisions of any similar federal or state law.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws and except for termination or release of a Guarantor’s respective obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms of Section 4.12 (but without prejudice to Section 2.04), each Guarantor waives any defense (other than payment in full in cash or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations) based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrowers or any other Guarantor or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or the Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable, or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor, other than the payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or the Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable, (in each case, excluding the Continuing Obligations). The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents, at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or the Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable, make any other accommodation with any Borrower or any other Guarantor or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any Guarantor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or the Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations (in each case, excluding the Continuing Obligations), as applicable, have been paid in full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Guarantor waives any defense (other than payment in full in cash or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations) arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable Laws, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any Borrower or any other Guarantor, as the case may be, or any security. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Guarantor waives any and all suretyship defenses.

Section 2.04 Reinstatement. Notwithstanding anything to contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the Guarantors agrees that (a) its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or the Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization (or any analogous proceeding in any jurisdiction) of any Borrower or any other Guarantor or otherwise and (b) the provisions of this Section 2.04 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.05 Agreement To Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the English Borrower or the U.S. Borrower, as applicable, or any other Guarantor to pay any Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable, when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the applicable Secured Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Guaranteed English Borrower Obligations and/or Guaranteed U.S. Borrower Obligations, as applicable. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the English Borrower or the U.S. Borrower, as applicable, or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article III.

Exhibit A-2-8

Section 2.06 Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the English Borrower’s and/or U.S. Borrower’s and each other applicable Guarantor’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of non-payment of its applicable Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

Article III

Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination

Section 3.01 Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination. Upon payment by any applicable Guarantor of any applicable Guaranteed Obligations, all rights of such Guarantor against the applicable Borrower or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all the applicable Guaranteed Obligations (excluding the Continuing Obligations) and the termination of all Commitments to the applicable Borrower under the Credit Agreement. If any amount shall be paid to the applicable Borrower or any other Guarantor in violation of the foregoing restrictions on account of (i) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar right or (ii) any such indebtedness of the applicable Borrower or any other Guarantor, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall promptly be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited against the payment of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, to the extent that any applicable Guarantor shall, under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations constituting Loans or other advances made to another Loan Party under the Credit Agreement (an “Accommodation Payment”), then such Guarantor making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other applicable Guarantors in an amount equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Guarantor’s Allocable Amount and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the applicable Guarantors; provided that such rights of contribution and indemnification shall be subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations (excluding the Continuing Obligations). As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Guarantor shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Guarantor hereunder and under the Credit Agreement without (a) rendering such Guarantor “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Guarantor with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Guarantor unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA.

The Guarantors (as defined in the Guarantee) have entered into the Guarantee in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans to the English Borrower and U.S. Borrower, as applicable, and the L/C Issuers to make Letters of Credit available in favor of the English Borrower and the U.S. Borrower, as applicable, or any Restricted Subsidiary of such applicable Borrower. Section 4.13 of the Guarantee provides that additional Restricted Subsidiaries may become Guarantors under the Guarantee by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement.

1.

Each reference to a “Guarantor” in the Guarantee shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary as if originally named therein as a Guarantor. The Guarantee is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit A-2-19

2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and, subject to the Legal Reservations, constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws and by general principles of equity and principles of good faith and fair dealing.

3. This Supplement 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 Supplement shall become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that bears the signature of the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent has executed a counterpart hereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Supplement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means (including in .pdf format via electronic mail) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Supplement.

4. Schedule I to the Guarantee is hereby supplemented by Schedule I attached hereto.

5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect, subject to the termination of the Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.11 hereof.

7. If any provision of this Supplement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Supplement shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

8. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 4.01 of the Guarantee.

9. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, as provided in Section 4.03(a) of the Guarantee.

(e) each of the Grantors has the power and authority to pledge the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder in the manner hereby done or contemplated;

(g) by virtue of the execution and delivery by the Grantors of this Agreement, when any Pledged Securities are delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Agreement, the Collateral Agent will (i) obtain a legal, valid and first-priority (subject only to any Liens permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement that have priority as a matter of law), perfected lien upon and security interest in such Pledged Securities as security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, (ii) have Control of such Pledged Securities and (iii) assuming that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the other Secured Parties have “notice of an adverse claim” (as defined in Section 8-105 of the UCC) with respect to such Pledged Securities at the time such Pledged Securities constituting Securities that are certificated are delivered to the Collateral Agent, be a protected purchaser (within the meaning of Section 8-303 of the UCC) thereof;

Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged under Section 2.01 is a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC and is governed by Article 8 of the UCC, such interest shall be represented by a certificate. Each Grantor further acknowledges and agrees that with respect to any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled on or after the Closing Date by such Grantor and pledged hereunder that is not a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, such Grantor shall at no time elect to treat any such interest as a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, nor shall such interest be represented by a certificate, unless such election and such interest is thereafter represented by a certificate that is promptly delivered to the Collateral Agent, subject to a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any).

Exhibit F-1-14

Section 2.05 Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given the U.S. Borrower prior written notice of its intent to exercise such rights, (a) the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right (in its sole and absolute discretion) to cause each of the Pledged Securities to be transferred of record into the name of the Collateral Agent and (b) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Securities for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) of the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to give the notice referred to above in order to exercise the rights described above. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given the U.S. Borrower prior written notice of its intent to exercise such rights, each Grantor will take any and all actions reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to facilitate compliance with this Section 2.05.

Section 2.06 Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest. (a) Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have notified the U.S. Borrower that the rights of the Grantors under this Section 2.06 are being suspended:

(i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Securities or any part thereof for any purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(ii) The Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause to be executed and delivered to such Grantor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request in writing for the purpose of enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to subparagraph (i) above, in each case as shall be specified in such request and be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

(iii) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Securities, to the extent (and only to the extent) that such dividends, interest, principal and other distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable Laws; provided that any noncash dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that would constitute Pledged Equity, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Securities or received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or

Exhibit F-1-15

other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and shall be promptly delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent). So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall promptly deliver to each Grantor (at the expense of such Grantor) any Pledged Securities in its possession if requested to be delivered to the issuer thereof in connection with any exchange or redemption of such Pledged Securities.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, after the Collateral Agent shall have notified the U.S. Borrower of the suspension of the rights of the Grantors under Section 2.06(a), then all rights of any Grantor to dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor is authorized to receive pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(iii) shall cease (other than with respect to dividends, payments and proceeds expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement to be paid to a party other than the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), and all such rights shall thereupon become, subject to the rights of the applicable agent or trustee under a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any), vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal or other distributions. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of this Section 2.06 shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Grantor and shall be promptly delivered to the Collateral Agent upon demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary stock or membership interest powers and other instruments of transfer reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.02. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, the Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to each Grantor (without interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of Section 2.06(a)(iii) in the absence of any such Event of Default and that remain in such account, and such Grantor’s right to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Securities shall be automatically reinstated.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Collateral Agent shall have notified the U.S. Borrower of the suspension of the rights of the Grantors under Section 2.06(a), then all rights of any Grantor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(i), and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under Section 2.06(a)(ii), shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Required Lenders, the Collateral Agent shall have the right from time

Exhibit F-1-16

to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, each Grantor shall have the sole and exclusive right to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers that such Grantor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of Section 2.06(a)(i), and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under Section 2.06(a)(ii) shall be automatically reinstated.

(d) Any notice given by the Collateral Agent to the U.S. Borrower suspending the rights of the Grantors under this Section 2.06 (i) shall be given in writing, (ii) may be given with respect to one or more of the Grantors at the same or different times and (iii) may suspend the rights of the Grantors under Sections 2.06(a)(i) or (iii) in part without suspending all such rights (as specified by the Collateral Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) and without waiving or otherwise affecting the Collateral Agent’s rights to give additional notices from time to time suspending other rights so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.06(a), (b) or (c), if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) of the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to give any notice referred to in said Sections in order to exercise any of its rights described in such Sections, and the suspension of the rights of each of the Grantors under each such Section shall be automatic upon the occurrence of such Event of Default.

Section 2.07 Collateral Agent Not a Partner or Limited Liability Company Member Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to make the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner in any partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Collateral Agent shall become the absolute owner of Pledged Equity consisting of a limited liability company interest or a partnership interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Collateral Agent, any other Secured Party, any Grantor and/or any other Person.

(viii) to such Grantor’s knowledge, (A) none of the material trade secrets of such Grantor has been used, divulged, disclosed or appropriated to the detriment of such Grantor for the benefit of any other Person other than such Grantor; and (B) no employee, independent contractor or agent of such Grantor is in default or breach of any material term of any employment agreement, non-disclosure agreement, assignment of inventions agreement or similar agreement or contract relating in any way to the protection, ownership, development, use or transfer of such Grantor’s material IP Collateral.

Section 3.03 Covenants (a) The U.S. Borrower agrees to promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) calendar days after the occurrence of such event, or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) notify the Collateral Agent of any change (i) in the legal name of any Grantor, (ii) in the identity or type of organization or corporate structure of any Grantor, (i) in the jurisdiction of organization of any Grantor, (iv) in the location of any Grantor under the UCC or (v) in the organizational identification number of any Grantor. In addition, if any Grantor does not have an organizational identification number on the Closing Date (or the date such Grantor becomes a party to this Agreement) and later obtains one, the U.S. Borrower shall promptly thereafter notify the Collateral Agent of such organizational identification number and shall take all actions reasonably necessary to maintain the security interests (and the priority thereof) of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby fully perfected and in full force and effect. The Loan Parties agree not to effect or permit any change referred to in the preceding sentence unless all filings, publications and registrations, have been made (or will be made in a timely fashion) under the UCC or other applicable Law that are required in order for the Collateral Agent to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected first-priority security interest to the extent required under the Loan Documents (subject only to any Lien that is expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement and has priority as a matter of law).

(b) Each Grantor shall, at its own expense, take any and all commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend title to the Article 9 Collateral against all Persons, except with respect to Article 9 Collateral that such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment is no longer necessary or beneficial to the conduct of the business, and to defend the Security Interest of the Collateral Agent in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien not permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement.

(d) Each Grantor agrees, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request to preserve, protect and perfect

Exhibit F-1-23

the Security Interest created hereby, including the payment of any fees and Taxes required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing statements (including fixture filings) or other documents required hereby.

(e) Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Article 9 Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Article 9 Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and within a reasonable period of time after the Collateral Agent has requested that it do so, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent within 30 days following receipt by such Grantor of an invoice relating thereto setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (with backup documentation supporting such request) incurred by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization; provided that nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents.

(f) If at any time any Grantor shall take a security interest in any property (other than Excluded Assets) of an Account Debtor or any other Person the value of which equals or exceeds $10,000,000 to secure payment and performance of an Account or related contracts, such Grantor shall promptly assign such security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties. Such assignment need not be filed of public record unless necessary to continue the perfected status of the security interest against creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other Person granting the security interest.

(g) Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall be or become liable to observe or perform the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by any Grantor under any contract, agreement or instrument relating to the Article 9 Collateral.

Section 3.04 Other Actions. In order to further insure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, the Security Interest, each Grantor agrees, in each case at such Grantor’s own expense and subject to a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any), to take the following actions with respect to the following Article 9 Collateral:

(a) Instruments. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Instruments constituting Collateral and (x) evidencing an amount equal to or in excess of $10,000,000 or (y) otherwise required to be endorsed, assigned and delivered to the Collateral Agent, such Grantor shall, in each case (subject to a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any)), promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties, accompanied by such undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

Exhibit F-1-24

(b) Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article II, if any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Securities that are certificated, such Grantor shall promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, accompanied by such undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request. If any Securities now or hereafter acquired by any Grantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Grantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, upon the Collateral Agent’s request and following the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and, at the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (but only to the extent such Securities and other Investment Property constitute Collateral) (i) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such Securities, without further consent of any Grantor or such nominee, or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the registered owner of the Securities. If any Securities, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other Investment Property are held by any Grantor or its nominee through a Securities Intermediary, upon the Collateral Agent’s request and following the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and at the Collateral Agent’s request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent shall either (i) cause such Securities Intermediary to agree to comply with Entitlement Orders or other instructions from the Collateral Agent to such Securities Intermediary as to such Security Entitlements without further consent of any Grantor or such nominee, or (ii) in the case of Financial Assets or other Investment Property held through a Securities Intermediary, arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the Entitlement Holder with respect to such Investment Property, with the Grantor being permitted, only with the consent of the Collateral Agent, to exercise rights to withdraw or otherwise deal with such Investment Property.

(c) Commercial Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time after the date of this Agreement acquire a Commercial Tort Claim with a value (as reasonably determined by the U.S. Borrower) of $10,000,000 or more, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor and provide supplements to Schedule III describing the details thereof and shall grant to the Collateral Agent a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement.

Article IV

Special Provisions Concerning IP Collateral

Section 4.01 Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. Without limiting the provisions of Section 3.01 hereof or any other rights of the Collateral Agent as the holder of a Security Interest in any IP Collateral, for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors) to use, license or sublicense any of the IP Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, solely in connection with (x) the marketing of the Grantors’ services and (y) the

Exhibit F-1-25

operation of the Grantors’ businesses, and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof; provided, however, that any such license granted by the Collateral Agent to a third party shall be limited to the purposes set forth in this Section 4.01 and include reasonable and customary terms necessary to preserve the existence, validity and value of the affected IP Collateral, including without limitation, provisions requiring the continuing confidential handling of trade secrets, requiring the use of appropriate notices and prohibiting the use of false notices, protecting and maintaining the quality standards of the Trademarks in the manner set forth below (it being understood and agreed that, without limiting any other rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or applicable Law, nothing in the foregoing license grant shall be construed as granting the Collateral Agent rights in and to such IP Collateral above and beyond (x) the rights to such IP Collateral that each Grantor has reserved for itself and (y) in the case of IP Collateral that is licensed to any such Grantor by a third party, the extent to which such Grantor has the right to grant a sublicense to such IP Collateral hereunder).

The use of such license by the Collateral Agent may only be exercised, at the option of the Collateral Agent, during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall immediately terminate at such time as the Collateral Agent is no longer lawfully entitled to exercise its rights and remedies under this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 4.01 shall require a Grantor to grant any license that is prohibited by any rule of law, statute or regulation, or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document evidencing, giving rise to or theretofore granted, with respect to such property or otherwise unreasonably prejudices the value thereof to the relevant Grantor. In the event the license set forth in this Section 4.01 is exercised with regard to any Trademarks, then the following shall apply: (i) all goodwill arising from any licensed or sublicensed use of any Trademark shall inure to the benefit of the Grantor; (ii) the licensed or sublicensed Trademarks shall only be used in association with goods or services of a quality and nature consistent with the quality and reputation with which such Trademarks were associated when used by Grantor prior to the exercise of the license rights set forth herein; and (iii) at the Grantor’s request and expense, licensees and sublicensees shall provide reasonable cooperation in any effort by the Grantor to maintain the registration or otherwise secure the ongoing validity and effectiveness of such licensed Trademarks, including, without limitation the actions and conduct described in Section 4.02 below.

Section 4.02 Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security (a) Except to the extent permitted by subsection 4.02(g) below, or to the extent that failure to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to registration or pending application of each item of its IP Collateral for which such Grantor has standing to do so, each Grantor agrees to take, at its expense, all reasonable steps, including, without limitation, in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office and any other governmental authority located in the United States to (i) maintain the validity and enforceability of any registered IP Collateral and maintain such IP Collateral in full force and effect, and (ii) pursue the registration and maintenance of each Patent, Trademark, or Copyright registration, issuance or application, now or hereafter included in such IP Collateral of such Grantor, including, without limitation, the payment of required fees and taxes, the filing of responses to office actions issued by the U.S.

Exhibit F-1-26

Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office or other governmental authorities located in the United States, the filing of applications for renewal or extension, the filing of affidavits under Sections 8 and 15 of the U.S. Trademark Act, the filing of divisional, continuation, continuation-in-part, reissue and renewal applications or extensions, the payment of maintenance fees and the participation in interference, reexamination, opposition, cancellation, infringement and misappropriation proceedings.

(b) In the event that any Grantor becomes aware that any material item of the IP Collateral is being infringed or misappropriated by a third party, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent and shall take such actions, at its expense, as such Grantor reasonably deems appropriate under the circumstances to protect or enforce such IP Collateral, including, without limitation, suing for infringement or misappropriation and for an injunction against such infringement or misappropriation.

(c) Each Grantor shall use proper statutory notice as commercially practical in connection with its use of each material item of its IP Collateral. Except to the extent permitted by subsection 4.02(g) below, or to the extent that failure to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Grantor shall do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of its IP Collateral may lapse, be terminated or become invalid or unenforceable or dedicated to the public domain (or, in the case of a trade secret, lose its competitive value).

(d) Except to the extent permitted by subsection 4.02(g) below, or to the extent that failure to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor shall take all reasonable steps to preserve and protect each item of its IP Collateral.

(e) Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership or other interest in any IP Collateral after the Closing Date (the “After-Acquired Intellectual Property”) (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto, and (ii) any such After-Acquired Intellectual Property and, in the case of Trademarks, the goodwill symbolized thereby, shall automatically become part of the IP Collateral subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement with respect thereto.

(f) Together with the delivery of each Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 6.02(a) of the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall sign and deliver to the Collateral Agent an appropriate U.S. Security Agreement Supplement and related Grant of Security Interest with respect to applications for U.S. registration or U.S. registrations of IP Collateral owned by it as of the last day of the applicable fiscal year or fiscal quarter, as the case may be, to the extent that such IP Collateral is not covered by any previous U.S. Security Agreement Supplement (and Grant of Security Interests) so signed and delivered by it. In each case, it will promptly cooperate as reasonably necessary to enable the Collateral Agent to make any necessary or reasonably desirable recordations with the U.S. Copyright Office or the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, as appropriate.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any Grantor from abandoning or discontinuing the use or maintenance of any or its IP Collateral, or from failing to take action to enforce license agreements or pursue actions against infringers, if such Grantor has previously determined in its reasonable business judgment that such abandonment, discontinuance, or failure to take action is desirable in the conduct of its business.

Exhibit F-1-27

Article V

Remedies

Section 5.01 Remedies Upon Default Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it is agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under this Agreement, the UCC or other applicable Law, and, subject to a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any), also may (or, at the request of the Required Lenders, shall) (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent promptly, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place and time to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties; (ii) occupy any premises owned or, to the extent lawful and permitted, leased by any of the Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation; provided that the Collateral Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with reasonable notice thereof prior to or promptly after such occupancy; (iii) exercise any and all rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Collateral; provided that the Collateral Agent shall provide the applicable Grantor with reasonable notice thereof prior to or promptly after such exercise; (iv) withdraw any and all cash or other Collateral from any Collateral Account and apply such cash and other Collateral to the payment of any and all Secured Obligations in the manner provided in Section 5.02 of this Agreement; (v) subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable Law and the notice requirements described below, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate; and (vi) with respect to any IP Collateral, on demand, cause the Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such IP Collateral (provided that no such demand may be made unless an Event of Default has occurred and has continued for thirty (30) days) by the applicable Grantors to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent being free to sell, transfer, offer for sale, otherwise dispose of such IP Collateral, or license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any such IP Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall determine; provided, however, that such terms shall include all terms and restrictions that are customarily required to ensure the continuing validity and effectiveness of the IP Collateral at issue, such as, without limitation, notice, quality control and inurement provisions with regard to Trademarks, patent designation provisions with regard to Patents, and copyright notices and restrictions or decompilation and reverse engineering of copyrighted software, and confidentiality protections for trade secrets.

Each Grantor acknowledges and recognizes that (a) the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Collateral consisting of securities by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. §77, (as amended and in

Exhibit F-1-28

effect, the “Securities Act”) or the securities laws of various states (the “Blue Sky Laws”), but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who 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, (b) private sales so made may be at prices and upon other terms less favorable to the seller than if such securities were sold at public sales, (c) neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party has any obligation to delay sale of any of the Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit such securities to be registered for public sale under the Securities Act or the Blue Sky Laws, and (d) private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. To the maximum extent permitted by Law, each Grantor hereby waives any claim against any Secured Party arising because the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. Upon consummation of any such sale the Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any sale of Collateral shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.

The Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Grantors ten (10) days’ written notice (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. The Collateral Agent may conduct one or more going out of business sales, in the Collateral Agent’s own right or by one or more agents and contractors. Such sale(s) may be conducted upon any premises owned, leased, or occupied by any Grantor. The Collateral Agent and any such agent or contractor, in conjunction with any such sale, may augment the Inventory with other goods (all of which other goods shall remain the sole property of the Collateral Agent or such agent or contractor). Any amounts realized from the sale of such goods which constitute augmentations to the Inventory (net of an allocable share of the costs and expenses incurred in their disposition) shall be the sole property of the Collateral Agent or such agent or contractor and neither any Grantor nor any Person claiming under or in right of any Grantor shall have any interest therein. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future

Exhibit F-1-29

delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, private) sale made pursuant to this Agreement, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by applicable Law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes of determining the Grantors’ rights in the Collateral, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Secured Obligations paid in full; provided, however, that such agreements shall include all terms and restrictions that are customarily required to ensure the continuing validity and effectiveness of the IP Collateral at issue, such as, without limitation, quality control and inurement provisions with regard to Trademarks, patent designation provisions with regard to patents, and copyright notices and restrictions or decompilation and reverse engineering of copyrighted software, and protecting the confidentiality of trade secrets. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court appointed receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.

Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact) during the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice to the U.S. Borrower of its intent to exercise such rights (except in the case of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) of the Credit Agreement, in which case no such notice shall be required) for the purpose of, subject to a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any), (i) making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance, (ii) making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto and (iii) obtaining or maintaining the policies of insurance required by Section 6.07 of the Credit Agreement or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating thereto.

By accepting the benefits of this Agreement and each other Collateral Document, the Secured Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that this Agreement and each other Collateral Document may be enforced only by the action of the Collateral Agent and that no other Secured Party shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents.

Exhibit F-1-30

Section 5.02 Application of Proceeds Subject to a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any), the Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. It is understood and agreed that the Grantors shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations.

Article VI

Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination

Upon payment by any Grantor of any Secured Obligations, all rights of such Grantor against the U.S. Borrower or any other Grantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations (other than (i) contingent indemnity obligations for then unasserted claims; (ii) L/C Obligations as to which arrangements satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer shall have been made; (iii) obligations and liabilities under Secured Hedge Agreements as to which arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Bank shall have been made; and (iv) Cash Management Obligations as to which arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Bank shall have been made) and the termination of all Commitments. If any amount shall be paid to the U.S. Borrower or any other Grantor in contravention of the foregoing subordination on account of (i) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar right or (ii) any such indebtedness of the U.S. Borrower or any other Grantor, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall promptly be paid to the Collateral Agent to be credited against the payment of the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, to the extent that any Grantor (other than the U.S. Borrower) shall, under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Secured Obligations (an “Accommodation Payment”), then the Grantor making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Grantors in an amount equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Grantor’s Allocable Amount and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Grantors. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Grantor shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Grantor hereunder and under the Credit Agreement without (a) rendering such Grantor “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of the Bankruptcy Code,

Exhibit F-1-31

Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Grantor with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Grantor unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA.

Article VII

Miscellaneous

Section 7.01 Notices All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to a Grantor other than the U.S. Borrower shall be given in care of the U.S. Borrower.

Section 7.02 Waivers; Amendment (a) No failure or delay by the Collateral Agent 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 Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement 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 7.02, 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 any Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

(b) Subject to a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any), neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 7.03 Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification

(a) Each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) to the extent required by Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement; provided that each reference therein to the “Borrower” shall be deemed to be a reference to “each Grantor”.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and each other Indemnitee from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements to the extent required by Section 10.05 of the Credit Agreement; provided that each reference therein to the “Borrower” shall be deemed to be a reference to “each Grantor”.

Exhibit F-1-32

(c) The agreements in this Section 7.03 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 7.04 Successors and Assigns Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Grantor or the Collateral Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective permitted successors and assigns.

The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property.

Section 7.17 Recourse; Limited Obligations This Agreement is made with full recourse to each Grantor and pursuant to and upon all the warranties, representations, covenants and agreements on the part of such Grantor contained herein, in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and otherwise in writing in connection herewith or therewith, with respect to the Secured Obligations of each applicable Secured Party.

In the event of any conflict between the terms of a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any) and this Agreement or any other Collateral Document, the terms of such Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any) shall govern and control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Collateral Agent acknowledges and agrees that no Grantor shall be required to take or refrain from taking any action at the request of the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral if such action or inaction would be inconsistent with the terms of such Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any).

(b) Nothing contained in a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (if any) shall be deemed to modify any of the provisions of this Agreement, which, as among the Grantors and the Collateral Agent shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

Section 7.20 Right of Setoff

Subject to Section 10.09 of the Credit Agreement, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each other Secured Party is hereby authorized by each Grantor at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Secured Party to or for the credit or the account of any Grantor against any and all of the obligations of the Grantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Secured Party, irrespective of whether or not such Secured Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Grantor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Secured Party different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Secured Party under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Secured Party may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

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

Exhibit F-1-47

Section 8. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 7.01 of the Security Agreement.

This includes:

(a)

any time or waiver granted to, or composition with, any person;

(b)

any release of any person under the terms of any composition or arrangement;

14.4

Immediate recourse

(a)

(b)	This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Loan Document to the contrary.

14.5

Appropriations

Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Loan Parties under or in connection with the Loan Documents have been irrevocably paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable), each Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may without affecting the liability of the Chargor under this Deed:

Exhibit F-2-17

(a)

(i) refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) against those amounts; or

(ii) apply and enforce them in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise); and

(b)

hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from the Chargor or on account of the Chargor’s liability under this Deed.

14.6

Non-competition

Unless:

(a)

all amounts which may be or become payable by the Loan Parties under or in connection with the Loan Documents have been irrevocably paid in full; or

(b)

the UK Security Trustee otherwise directs,

the Chargor will not, after a claim has been made or by virtue of any payment or performance by it under this Deed:

(i)

be subrogated to any rights, security or moneys held, received or receivable by any Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf);

be entitled to any right of contribution or indemnity in respect of any payment made or moneys received on account of the Chargor’s liability under this Clause;

(iii)

claim, rank, prove or vote as a creditor of any Loan Party or its estate in competition with any Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf); or

(iv)

receive, claim or have the benefit of any payment, distribution or security from or on account of any Loan Party, or exercise any right of set-off as against any Loan Party.

The Chargor must hold in trust for and must promptly pay or transfer to the UK Security Trustee for the Secured Parties any payment or distribution or benefit of security received by it contrary to this Clause or in accordance with any directions given by the UK Security Trustee under this Clause.

14.7

Release of Chargors’ right of contribution

If the Chargor ceases to be a Chargor in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents for the purpose of any sale or other disposal of the Chargor, or the Chargor is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary:

(a)

the Chargor will be released by each other Chargor from any liability whatsoever to make a contribution to any other Loan Party arising by reason of the performance by any other Chargor of its obligations under the Loan Documents; and

Exhibit F-2-18

(b)

each other Chargor will waive any rights it may have by reason of the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any right of any Secured Party under any Loan Document or of any other security taken under, or in connection with, any Loan Document where the rights or security are granted by or in relation to the aspects of the retiring Chargor.

14.8

Additional security

(a)	The Security constituted by this Deed is cumulative, in addition to, independent of and shall neither be merged into nor in any way exclude or be prejudiced or affected by any other security or other right now or subsequently held by any Secured Party.

(b)	No prior security held by any Secured Party (in its capacity as such or otherwise) over any Security Asset will merge into this Security.

14.9

Security held by Chargor

The Chargor may not, without the prior consent of the UK Security Trustee or unless otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, hold any security from any other Loan Party in respect of the Chargor’s liability under this Deed.

Tacking

Each Lender must perform its obligations under the Credit Agreement (including any obligation to make available further advances).

New Accounts

(a)	If any subsequent charge or other interest affects any Security Asset which is prohibited by the Loan Documents, the Secured Party may open a new account with the Chargor.

(b)	If the Secured Party does not open a new account, it will nevertheless be treated as if it had done so at the time when it received or was deemed to have received notice of that charge or other interest.

(c)	As from that time all payments made to the Secured Party will be credited or be treated as having been credited to the new account and will not operate to reduce any Secured Obligation.

(b)

no Secured Obligation is due and payable,

that time deposit will automatically be renewed for any further maturity which that Secured Party considers appropriate.

15.5

Notice of assignment

This Deed constitutes notice in writing to the Chargor of any charge or assignment of a debt owed by the Chargor to any other member of the Group and contained in any other Security Document.

16.

RELEASE

(a)

Once all the Secured Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash, all Term Commitments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) have terminated or expired and none of the UK Security Trustee nor any other Secured Party has any actual or contingent liability to advance further monies to or incur any liability on behalf of the Chargor or any other Loan Party under the Loan Documents, the UK Security Trustee shall, at the request and cost of the Chargor, promptly take any action including preparing and delivering all documents and instruments (including any termination or release letter or deed), revoking any powers of attorney and performing all acts or deeds (including returning title documents, share certificates, related stock transfer forms and any other document belonging to the Chargor) which are, in each case, necessary or otherwise requested by the Chargor to release or re-assign the Security Assets from the Security constituted by this Deed.

Where the Chargor makes a disposal permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement, upon the disposal of the Chargor permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement, upon the designation of the Chargor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or upon the Chargor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary (as defined in the Credit Agreement), described in clauses (g), (h), (i), (j) or (k) in the definition thereof of the Credit Agreement, the UK Security Trustee shall, at the request and costs of the Chargor, take all or any action (including the provision of a letter of non-crystallisation) necessary to release the Secured Asset which is the subject of such disposal from this Security.

17.

AMENDMENT

No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Deed will be effective without the written consent of the UK Security Trustee and the Chargor, subject to any Lender consent requirement under the Credit Agreement.

9.1

Notwithstanding the provisions of clause 3, until (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) any required notices to the Borrower have been received by the Borrower in accordance with Section 8.01 (Events of Default) of the Credit Agreement, the Grantor (or its agent) is hereby authorised by the Collateral Agent to exercise any voting rights in respect of the Securities (and, where title to the Securities has been assigned, transferred or otherwise made over to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent shall, at the request, cost and expense of the Grantor, execute such forms of proxy as are reasonably required to allow the Grantor to exercise such rights) provided that the Grantor shall not, save with the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, take or permit any action pursuant to such authorisation:

(a)

that does not comply with the Grantor’s memorandum and articles of association and the Loan Documents; or

(b)

to amend the memorandum or articles of association of the Company in any manner that is materially adverse to the interests of the Secured Parties (except as may be required to comply with any applicable requirements of law).

9.2	At any time when (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) any required notices to the Borrower have been received by the Borrower in accordance with Section 8.01 (Events of Default) of the Credit Agreement:

(a)

the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights, give instructions and exercise any other rights in respect of the Collateral (or direct the Grantor to do so);

(b)

the Grantor shall not be authorised to, and shall not, give instructions or exercise any rights in respect of the Collateral; and

(c)

where the assignment, transfer or making over of title to the Securities has not been effected pursuant to clause 3.2(c), the Grantor shall forthwith exercise all voting or other rights in respect thereof in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall direct from time to time and, in the absence of such directions, only with the object of enhancing or preserving the Collateral and its value.

9.3	The Collateral Agent may, in such manner as it shall determine, exercise, or cause to be exercised, or refrain from exercising, any voting or other rights which it may have pursuant to this clause 9 and it shall not be liable for any such exercise or failure to exercise such rights.

Exhibit F-3-11

10.1	All dividends or other income or distributions arising in respect of the Collateral (in this clause, dividends) shall be declared, made and/or paid in accordance with and as permitted under the Credit Agreement.

10.2	Subject to clause 10.1, prior to (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing and (ii) any required notices to the Borrower having been received by the Borrower in accordance with Section 8.01 (Events of Default) of the Credit Agreement:

(a)

all dividends shall be receivable by the Grantor, which may retain such dividends for its own benefit, and such dividends shall be released from the security created hereunder; and

all dividends shall be receivable by the Collateral Agent, which shall apply the same against the Secured Obligations; and

(b)

the Grantor shall, to the extent that dividends are received by it, account to the Collateral Agent for such dividends and, pending delivery, shall hold such dividends on trust for the Collateral Agent;

provided, however, that the Grantor shall be entitled to receive such dividends, payments and proceeds expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement to be paid to a party other than the Collateral Agent following the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing and receipt of such required notices.

10.4	The provisions of clause 10.3 are without prejudice to the right of the Collateral Agent to credit monies received, recovered or realised to a separate suspense account pursuant to clause 19.

10.5

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in clause 9 and this clause 10, after any Event of Default is cured and/or waived in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement (and provided that no steps have been taken to enforce the security interest created by this agreement at such time), any and all (i) voting rights, powers and other consensual rights, in each case, in relation to any Collateral and (ii) rights to dividends, distributions, principal and interest paid or other income paid or payable, in each case, in relation to any Collateral, shall automatically revert back to the Grantor and the Collateral Agent shall have no more right (absent the occurrence and continuation of a subsequent Event of Default that is not thereafter cured and/or waived) to exercise such rights in the name of the Grantor or otherwise.

13.3	The Grantor hereby covenants with the Collateral Agent to ratify and confirm any lawful exercise or purported exercise of the power of attorney referred to in this clause.

14.

(c)

There shall be excluded from the security created by this Deed or any relevant Security Accession Deed, but in each case only to the extent that such prohibition or condition restricts the type of security interest purported to be created by the relevant Clause of this Deed or any relevant Security Accession Deed:

(i)

any asset which a Chargor is prohibited from creating Security on or over by reason of any contract, license, lease, instrument or other arrangement which has been entered into with a third party on arms’ length terms in relation to that asset and which contract, license, lease, instrument or other arrangement is otherwise not prohibited by the terms of the Credit Agreement (including any asset which a Chargor is precluded from creating Security over without the prior consent of a third party), in each case to the extent of that prohibition and for so long as such prohibition is in existence or until consent has been received from the third party;

(d)

For all assets and undertakings referred to in sub-paragraphs (i) and (ii) above and to the extent that such assets are material and that each relevant Chargor determines in good faith that such endeavours will not involve placing commercial relationships with third parties in jeopardy or incurring any material cost, that Chargor undertakes to (i) notify the UK Security Trustee promptly of the existence of such assets and undertakings and (ii) use reasonable endeavours to apply for a consent or waiver of the relevant prohibition or condition which affects the charging of such asset as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Deed or any relevant Security Accession Deed (or, as applicable, the creation of the relevant prohibition or condition to the extent arising after the date of this Deed or any relevant Security Accession Deed unless that Chargor has already used its commercially reasonable endeavours at the time of negotiation of the relevant contract, license, lease, instrument or other arrangement to avoid the inclusion of the relevant prohibition or condition or otherwise to limit its scope).

(e)

Immediately upon satisfaction of the relevant condition or upon receipt of the relevant waiver or consent, or upon the relevant prohibition otherwise ceasing to apply, the formerly excluded assets or undertakings shall stand charged or assigned to the UK Security Trustee under the relevant Clause of this Deed or any relevant Security Accession Deed (as applicable).

(h)	The fact that no, or incomplete, details of any Security Asset are inserted in Schedule 2 (Security Assets) does not affect the validity or enforceability of this Security.

on the convening of any meeting of the members of that UK Chargor to consider a resolution to wind that UK Chargor up.

(f)

The giving by the UK Security Trustee of a notice under paragraph (b) above in relation to any asset of a UK Chargor will not be construed as a waiver or abandonment of the UK Security Trustee’s rights to give any other notice in respect of any other asset or of any other right of any other Secured Party under this Deed or any other Loan Document.

THIS PROMISSORY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

The terms and provisions of this Promissory Note are severable, and if any term or provision shall be determined to be superseded, illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable in whole or in part pursuant to applicable Laws by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, such determination shall not in any manner impair or otherwise affect the validity, legality or enforceability of that term or provision in any other jurisdiction or any of the remaining terms and provisions of this Promissory Note in any jurisdiction.
