RECITALS:

WHEREAS, each 2022 Incremental Revolving Lender has agreed, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to provide such 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase and to become, if not already, a Revolving Lender and a Lender for all purposes under the Credit Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Existing Credit Agreement may be amended to (i) give effect to provisions of Section 2.25 of the Credit Agreement through an Incremental Amendment executed by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each 2022 Incremental Revolving Lender providing a 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase, (ii) correct any mistakes or ambiguities of a technical nature with the consent of the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent and (iii) modify provisions that affect only the Revolving Facility with the consent of each Revolving Lender and Issuing Lender.

WHEREAS, the 2022 Incremental Revolving Lenders constitute Majority Facility Lenders with respect to the Revolving Facility under the Credit Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto therefore agree as follows:

Section 1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise specifically defined herein, each term used herein that is defined in the Credit Agreement has the meaning assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement.

Section 2. 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase.

(a)            Effective as of the Effective Date, each 2022 Incremental Revolving Lender agrees (on a several and not joint basis) to make their respective 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase available to the Revolving Borrowers. Effective as of the Effective Date, each party hereto agrees that the Revolving Commitments and the L/C Sublimits of the Revolving Lenders shall be as set forth on Schedule I and Schedule II hereto, respectively, and that Schedule 1.1A-1 (as it relates to the Revolving Commitments) and Schedule 1.1A-2 to the Existing Credit Agreement are amended and restated as set forth on Schedule I and Schedule II hereto, respectively, as of the Effective Date. The aggregate amount of all the Revolving Commitments on the Effective Date (after giving effect to the 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase) shall be $750,000,000.

(b)            This Amendment constitutes an “Incremental Amendment” with respect to the establishment of the 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase as a Revolving Commitment Increase. The 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase is being established in accordance with Section 2.25 of the Existing Credit Agreement. Each of the 2022 Incremental Revolving Lenders constitutes an Incremental Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 2.25 of the Credit Agreement and, in such capacity, acknowledges the provisions of Section 2.25 of the Existing Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, commitments and loans made pursuant to the 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase shall be “Revolving Commitments”, “Revolving Loans” and “Loans”, as applicable, for all purposes under the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document and shall be treated as the same Class and Facility as the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans established as of the Closing Date. Any revolving loans and other extensions of credit made pursuant to the 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase shall have terms identical to the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans established as of the Closing Date and shall rank pari passu in right of payment and security with such Revolving Commitments. The Borrowers and the 2022 Incremental Revolving Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to update the Register to reflect the amount, terms and date of the 2022 Revolving Commitment Increase and the identity of the 2022 Incremental Revolving Lenders.

Section 3. Amendments to the Credit Agreement. In accordance with the provisions of Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement, the parties hereto agree that the Credit Agreement shall be amended as set forth on Exhibit A (with inserted text indicated in the following manner: inserted text and deleted text indicated in the following manner: ~~deleted text~~) effective as of the Effective Date.

Section 4. Representations of the Loan Parties. The Borrowers and each other Loan Party hereby represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent and each 2022 Incremental Revolving Lender that (i) each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in or pursuant to the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except where such representations and warranties are already qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty shall be accurate in all respects) on and as of the Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date or period, in which case such representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects (except where such representations and warranties are already qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty shall be accurate in all respects) as of such earlier date or period and (ii) no Default or Event of Default is continuing as of the Effective Date.

Section 5. Lenders’ Representations.

Any calculation or determination in this Agreement that requires the application of GAAP across multiple quarters need not be calculated or determined using the same accounting standard for each constituent quarter.

(b)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the definition of “Capitalized Lease Obligation”, unless the Borrower Representative elects otherwise, all obligations of any Person that are or would have been treated as operating leases for purposes of GAAP prior to the issuance by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on February 25, 2016 of an Accounting Standards Update (the “ASU”) shall continue to be accounted for as operating leases (and not be treated as financing or capital lease obligations or Indebtedness) for purposes of all financial definitions, calculations and deliverables under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including the calculation of Consolidated Net Income and Consolidated EBITDA) (whether or not such operating lease obligations were in effect on such date) notwithstanding the fact that such obligations are required in accordance with the ASU or any other change in accounting treatment or otherwise (on a prospective or retroactive basis or otherwise) to be treated as or to be re-characterized as financing or capital lease obligations or otherwise accounted for as liabilities in financial statements.

(c)            Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower Representative to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP.

(b)            determining compliance with any basket or other condition set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA);

in each case, at the option of the Borrower Representative (the Borrower Representative’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, a “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder shall be deemed to be (A) in the case of any acquisition or other Investment (including by way of merger, amalgamation or consolidation), any Asset Sale or any assumption or incurrence of Indebtedness or issuance of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock, or any transaction relating thereto, the date (or on the basis of the financial statements for the most recently ended Reference Period at the time) of entry into a binding letter of intent or the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction (or, solely in connection with an acquisition (including by way of merger, amalgamation or consolidation) to which the United Kingdom City Code on Takeovers and Mergers applies, the date on which a “Rule 2.7 Announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer is made), (B) in the case of any Restricted Debt Payment, at the time (or on the basis of the financial statements for the most recently ended Reference Period at the time) of delivery of notice with respect to such Restricted Debt Payment or (C) in the case of any other Restricted Payment, at the time (or on the basis of the financial statements for the most recently ended Reference Period at the time) of the declaration of such Restricted Payment (the applicable date determined pursuant to clause (A), (B) or (C), the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving 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) and, at the election of the Borrower Representative, any other Limited Condition Transaction that has not been consummated but with respect to which the Borrower Representative has made an LCT Election, on a Pro Forma Basis as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recently completed Reference Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date, UK Holdco or the Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test, basket or condition, such ratio, test, basket or condition shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower Representative has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests, baskets or conditions 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, basket or condition, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, tests, ratios and conditions will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. The provisions of this Section 1.4 shall also apply in respect of the incurrence of any Incremental Facility.

1.5            Currency Equivalents Generally.

(a)            Any amount specified in this Agreement (other than in Sections 2, 3, 10 and 11 or as set forth in clause (b) of this Section) or any of the other Loan Documents to be in Dollars shall also include the equivalent of such amount in any currency other than Dollars, such equivalent amount to be determined at the rate of exchange quoted by the Reuters World Currency Page for the Alternative Currency at 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such day (or, in the event such rate does not appear on any Reuters World Currency Page, by reference to such other publicly available service for displaying exchange rates as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative, or, in the absence of such agreement, such rate shall instead be the arithmetic average of the spot rates of exchange of the Administrative Agent in the market where its foreign currency exchange operations in respect of such currency are then being conducted, at or about 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such date for the purchase of Dollars for delivery two Business Days later); provided that the determination of any Dollar Amount shall be made in accordance with Section 2.29; provided that if any basket is exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in applicable currency exchange rates after the last time such basket was utilized, such basket will not be deemed to have been exceeded solely as a result of such fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

(b)            For purposes of determining the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Net Leverage Ratio, amounts denominated in a currency other than Dollars will be converted to Dollars for the purposes of (A) testing the covenant set forth in Section 7.1, at the exchange rate used in preparing the applicable financial statements as of the last day of the fiscal quarter for which such measurement is being made and (B) otherwise, at the option of the Borrower Representative, the Exchange Rate as of the date of calculation or at the exchange rate used in preparing the applicable financial statements, and at the option of the Borrower Representative in each case will, in the case of Indebtedness, reflect the currency translation effects, determined in accordance with GAAP, of Swap Agreements permitted hereunder for currency exchange risks with respect to the applicable currency in effect on the date of determination of the Dollar Amount of such Indebtedness.

1.6            Change in Currency.

(a)            Each obligation of any Loan Party to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the Closing Date shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Borrowing in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end of the then current Interest Period.

(b)            Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify in consultation with the Borrower Representative to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

(c)            Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify in consultation with the Borrower Representative to be appropriate to reflect a change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the change in currency.

(b)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless the Borrower Representative otherwise notifies the Administrative Agent, with respect to any amount incurred or transaction entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or financial test (including any First Lien Net Leverage Ratio test, any Secured Net Leverage Ratio test, any Total Net Leverage Ratio test and/or any Interest Coverage Ratio test) (any such amount, including any amount drawn under the Revolving Facility or any other permitted revolving facility and any cap expressed as a percentage of Consolidated Net Income or Consolidated EBITDA, a “Fixed Amount”) substantially concurrently with any amount Incurred or transaction entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with a financial ratio or financial test (including any First Lien Net Leverage Ratio test, any Secured Net Leverage Ratio test, any Total Net Leverage Ratio test and/or any Interest Coverage Ratio test) (any such amount, an “Incurrence-Based Amount”), it is understood and agreed that (i) the incurrence of the Incurrence-Based Amount shall be calculated first without giving effect to any Fixed Amount but giving full pro forma effect to the use of proceeds of such Fixed Amount and the related transactions and (ii) the incurrence of the Fixed Amount shall be calculated thereafter. Unless the Borrower Representative elects otherwise, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have used amounts under an Incurrence-Based Amount then available to the Borrowers prior to utilization of any amount under a Fixed Amount then available to the Borrowers.

(c)            For purposes of determining compliance at any time with Sections 7.2, 7.3, 7.5 and 7.7, in the event that any Indebtedness, Preferred Stock, Disqualified Stock, Lien, Restricted Payment, Investment or disposition or portion thereof, as applicable, at any time meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of transactions or items permitted pursuant to any clause of such Sections 7.2 (other than Section 7.2(b)(i) in the case of Indebtedness incurred on the Closing Date), 7.3, 7.5 or 7.7 (other than pursuant to clause (6) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” as it relates to Section 7.2(b)(i) and clause (7)(i) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”) (each of the foregoing, including the categories and items set forth in component definitions thereof, a “Reclassifiable Item”), the Borrower Representative, in its sole discretion, may, from time to time, divide, classify or reclassify such Reclassifiable Item (or portion thereof) under one or more clauses (or component definitions) of each such Section and will only be required to include such Reclassifiable Item (or portion thereof) in any one category; provided that, upon delivery of any financial statements pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or (b) following the initial incurrence or making of any such Reclassifiable Item, if such Reclassifiable Item could, based on such financial statements, have been incurred or made in reliance on any “ratio-based” basket or exception, such Reclassifiable Item shall automatically be reclassified as having been incurred or made under such “ratio-based” basket or exception (in each case, subject to any other applicable provision of such “ratio-based” basket or exception); provided, further, that Indebtedness shall be reclassified only to the extent that any Lien in respect thereof would be permitted after such reclassification and any concurrent reclassification of such Lien.

(e)            For purposes of determining compliance with Section 7.2 or Section 7.7, if any Indebtedness, Preferred Stock, Disqualified Stock or Lien is created or Incurred in reliance on a basket measured by reference to a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA, and any refinancing or replacement thereof would cause the percentage of Consolidated EBITDA to be exceeded if calculated based on the Consolidated EBITDA on the date of such refinancing or replacement, such percentage of Consolidated EBITDA will be deemed not to be exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing or replacement Indebtedness, Preferred Stock, Disqualified Stock or other obligation does not exceed an amount sufficient to repay the principal amount of such Indebtedness, Preferred Stock, Disqualified Stock or other obligation being refinanced or replaced, except by an amount equal to (x) the amount necessary to pay accrued and unpaid interest, fees, underwriting discounts and expenses, including any premium and defeasance costs Incurred in connection with such refinancing or replacement, (y) any existing commitments unutilized thereunder and (z) additional amounts permitted to be Incurred under ‎‎Section 7.2.

(a)            Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans (“Revolving Loans”) to the Revolving Borrowers in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies from time to time on any Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount which, when added to such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the sum of (i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations at such time and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Swingline Loans at such time, does not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment. During the Revolving Commitment Period the Revolving Borrowers may use the Revolving Commitments by borrowing, repaying or prepaying the Revolving Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The Revolving Loans (other than Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars or Sterling) may from time to time be Eurocurrency Loans or, with respect to Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars, Term SOFR Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by the applicable Revolving Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.5 and 2.12. Revolving Loans denominated in Sterling shall be Sterling Daily Rate Loans.

(b)            The Revolving Borrowers shall repay all outstanding Revolving Loans on the Revolving Termination Date, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Loans, to but excluding the date of payment.

2.5            Procedure for Borrowing of Revolving Loans. The Revolving Borrowers may borrow under the Revolving Commitments during the Revolving Commitment Period on any Business Day, provided that the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Revolving Borrowers) shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to (a) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, Eurocurrency Loans denominated in ~~Dollars or~~ Euros and ~~in the case of~~ Sterling Daily Rate Loans denominated in Sterling or 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), four Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Australian Dollars, or (b) 10:00 a.m. (New York City time), on the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of ABR Loans), specifying (i) the amount and Type of Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the currency in which the Revolving Loans to be borrowed are to be denominated, (iii) the requested Borrowing Date, (iv) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, the respective amounts of each such Type of Loan and the respective lengths of the initial Interest Period therefor and (v) instructions for remittance of the applicable Loans to be borrowed; provided, however, that if the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Revolving Borrowers) wishes to request ~~Eurocurrency~~(x) Eurocurrency Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period” or (y) Term SOFR Loans having an Interest Period other than one~~, two~~, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) seven Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) four Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, in the case of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars or Eurocurrency Loans denominated in ~~Dollars or~~ Euros, or five Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Australian Dollars, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Revolving Borrowers) (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders. Each borrowing under the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of ABR Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (y) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or Sterling Daily Rate Loans, as applicable, (1) if denominated in Dollars, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, (2) if denominated in Euros, €1,000,000 or a whole multiple of €500,000 in excess thereof, (3) if denominated in Sterling, £500,000 or a whole multiple of £250,000 in excess thereof or (4) if denominated in Australian Dollars, A$1,000,000 or a whole multiple of A$500,000 in excess thereof (or, if the then aggregate Available Revolving Commitments of the Lenders are less than the Dollar Amount of any of the foregoing, such lesser amount); provided that the Swingline Lender may request, on behalf of the Revolving Borrowers, borrowings under the Revolving Commitments that are ABR Loans in other amounts pursuant to Section 2.7. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof. Each Revolving Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the applicable currency for the account of the Revolving Borrower designated in the applicable notice of Borrowing prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) for Borrowings denominated in Dollars and prior to 8:00 a.m. (New York City time) for Borrowings denominated in an Alternative Currency on the Borrowing Date requested by the applicable Revolving Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the applicable Revolving Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting such account or by wire transfer as is designated in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Revolving Borrower), with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Revolving Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

2.6            Swingline Commitment.

(a)            Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.6, the Swingline Lender agrees to make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Revolving Borrowers under the Revolving Commitments from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period by making swingline loans in Dollars (“Swingline Loans”) to the Revolving Borrowers; provided that (i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Swingline Loans at any time shall not exceed the Swingline Commitment then in effect (notwithstanding that the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Swingline Loans at any time, when aggregated with the Outstanding Amount of the Swingline Lender’s other Revolving Loans, may exceed the Swingline Commitment then in effect), (ii) the Revolving Borrowers shall not request, and the Swingline Lender shall not make, any Swingline Loan if, after giving effect to the making of such Swingline Loan, the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments of the Lenders would be less than zero and (iii) no Revolving Borrower shall use the proceeds of any Swingline Loan to refinance any outstanding Swingline Loan (whether borrowed by it or another Revolving Borrower). During the Revolving Commitment Period, the Revolving Borrowers may use the Swingline Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Swingline Loans shall be ABR Loans only. Immediately upon the making of a Swingline Loan, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swingline Lender a risk participation in such Swingline Loan (each a “Swingline Participation”) in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such Swingline Loan.

(b)            The Revolving Borrowers shall repay to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earliest to occur of (i) the date ten Business Days after such Loan is made and (ii) the Revolving Termination Date.

2.7            Procedure for Swingline Borrowing; Refunding of Swingline Loans.

(a)            Swingline Borrowings. Whenever a Revolving Borrower desires that the Swingline Lender make a Swingline Loan, the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Revolving Borrower) shall give the Swingline Lender irrevocable facsimile notice (which facsimile notice must be received by the Swingline Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed Borrowing Date) confirmed promptly in writing substantially in the form of Exhibit L or such other form as approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent) (a “Swingline Loan Notice”), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative, specifying (i) the amount to be borrowed and (ii) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period). Promptly after receipt by the Swingline Lender of any Swingline Loan Notice, the Swingline Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swingline Loan Notice and, if not, the Swingline Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Each borrowing under the Swingline Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Unless the Swingline Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Revolving Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swingline Borrowing (A) directing the Swingline Lender not to make such Swingline Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.6(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 5.2 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swingline Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swingline Loan available to the Borrower Representative (or the applicable Revolving Borrower specified in the notice of Borrowing) in an amount in immediately available funds equal to the amount of the Swingline Loan to be made by the Swingline Lender by crediting such account on the books of the Swingline Lender in immediately available funds or by wire transfer as is designated in writing to the Swingline Lender by the Borrower Representative

102

(b)            Refinancing of Swingline Loans.

(i)            The Swingline Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower Representative (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swingline Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Revolving Lender make an ABR Revolving Loan to the Borrower Representative in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of all Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Borrowing Request for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.4, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of ABR Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Revolving Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 5.2. The Swingline Lender shall furnish the Borrower Representative with a copy of the applicable Borrowing Request promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Lender shall make an amount equal to its Revolving Percentage of the amount specified in such Borrowing Request available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swingline Loan) for the account of the Swingline Lender at the Administrative Agent’s office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Borrowing Request, whereupon, subject to Section 2.7(b)(ii), each Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made an ABR Loan to the applicable Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swingline Lender.

(ii)            If for any reason the Swingline Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Revolving Loan in accordance with Section 2.7(b)(i), the request for ABR Loans submitted by the Swingline Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swingline Lender that each of the Revolving Lenders fund its Swingline Participation in the relevant Swingline Loans, and each Revolving Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.7(b)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of each such Revolving Lender’s Swingline Participations in the Outstanding Amount of all Swingline Loans.

(iii)            If any Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7(b) by the time specified in Section 2.7(b)(i), the Swingline Lender 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 the Swingline Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swingline Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swingline Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the relevant Revolving Loan or funded Swingline Participation in the relevant Swingline Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swingline Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

103

(iv)            Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or to purchase and fund its Swingline Participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 2.7(b) 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 Swingline Lender, any 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, however, that each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.7(b) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.2. No such funding of Swingline Participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay Swingline Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(i)            At any time after any Revolving Lender has purchased and funded its Swingline Participations in one or more Swingline Loans, if the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of such Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Revolving Lender its Revolving Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swingline Lender.

(ii)            If any payment received by the Swingline Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swingline Loan is required to be returned by the Swingline Lender (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swingline Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Swingline Lender its Revolving Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swingline Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(d)            Interest for the Account of the Swingline Lender. The Swingline Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrowers for interest on the Swingline Loans. Until each Revolving Lender funds its Revolving Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.7 to fund its Swingline Participations, interest in respect of such Revolving Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swingline Lender.

(e)            Payments Directly to the Swingline Lender. The Borrowers shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swingline Loans directly to the Swingline Lender.

104

(f)            Revolving Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.6 and 2.7 or elsewhere in this Agreement, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swingline Loan at a time when a Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender unless the Swingline Lender has entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and the Borrower Representative to eliminate the Swingline Lender’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender’s or Defaulting Lenders’ participation in such Swingline Loans, including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s or Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Swingline Loans at such time and (ii) the Swingline Lender shall not make any Swingline Loan after it has received written notice from any Borrower, any other Loan Party or the Required Lenders stating that a Default or an Event of Default exists and is continuing until such time as the Swingline Lender shall have received written notice (A) of rescission of all such notices from the party or parties originally delivering such notice or notices or (B) of the waiver of such Default or Event of Default in accordance with Section 11.1.

2.8            Commitment Fees, etc.

(a)            The Revolving Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender, in accordance with its Revolving Percentage, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Commitment Fee Rate times the actual daily unutilized amount of the Total Revolving Commitments, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.25. The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Revolving Commitment Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Section 5 is not satisfied, and shall be due and payable in arrears on each applicable Fee Payment Date. The Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Commitment Fee Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Commitment Fee Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Commitment Fee Rate was in effect.

(b)            The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers (and their respective affiliates) and the Incremental Facility Arrangers (and their respective affiliates) the fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in any fee agreements (including the Fee Letter) with such Persons and to perform any other obligations contained therein.

2.9            Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. The Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Revolving Borrowers) shall have the right, upon not less than two Business Days’ notice (to the extent there are no Revolving Loans outstanding at such time) or not less than three Business Days’ notice (in any other case) to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitments. Any termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be accompanied by prepayment of the Revolving Loans and/or Swingline Loans to the extent, if any, that the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the amount of the Total Revolving Commitments as so reduced; provided that if the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans at such time is less than the amount of such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrower Representative shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit, in each case, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof or, if less than $1,000,000, the amount of the Revolving Commitments, or a whole multiple thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect; provided, further, that if any such notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments indicates that such termination is to be made in connection with a Refinancing of the Facilities or in connection with the consummation of any other event, such notice of termination may be revoked if such Refinancing or other event is not consummated and any ~~Eurocurrency~~Term SOFR Loan denominated in Dollars that was the subject of such notice shall be continued as an ABR Loan. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.9 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans (to the extent all Revolving Loans are not being prepaid) and Swingline Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

105

2.10            Optional Prepayments.

(a)            The Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, in each case, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit E or such other form as may be approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) three Business Days prior to the prepayment date, in the case of ~~Eurocurrency~~Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars or Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Euros or Sterling Daily Rate Loans or 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) four Business Days prior to the prepayment date, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Australian Dollars, and no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the prepayment date, in the case of ABR Loans; provided that if a Eurocurrency Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.21; provided, further, that if such notice of prepayment indicates that such prepayment is to be funded with the proceeds of a Refinancing of the Facilities or is conditioned upon the consummation of any other transaction or event, such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such Refinancing or other transaction or event is not consummated and any Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan denominated in Dollars that was the subject of such notice shall be continued as an ABR Loan. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans and Swingline Loans, other than in connection with a repayment of all Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of (x) in the case of ABR Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, (y) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (z) in the case of (1) Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Euro, €1,000,000 or a whole multiple of €500,000 in excess thereof, (2) Sterling Daily Rate Loans, £500,000 or a whole multiple of £250,000 in excess thereof or (3) Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Australian Dollars, A$1,000,000 or a whole multiple of A$500,000 in excess thereof. Partial prepayments of Swingline Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof.

(b)            Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that, on or prior to the date that is six months after the Closing Date, any Borrower (x) makes any prepayment of Initial Term Loans with the proceeds of any Repricing Transaction described under clause (i) of the definition of Repricing Transaction with respect to Initial Term Loans, or (y) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction with respect to Initial Term Loans under clause (ii) of the definition of Repricing Transaction, the Borrowers shall on the date of such prepayment or amendment, as applicable, pay to each Initial Term Lender (I) in the case of such clause (x), 1.00% of the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans so prepaid and (II) in the case of such clause (y), 1.00% of the aggregate amount of the Initial Term Loans affected by such Repricing Transaction and outstanding on the effective date of such amendment (an “Initial Term Repricing Premium”).

(c)            Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that, on or prior to the date that is six months after the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, any Borrower (x) makes any prepayment of Amendment No. 2 Incremental Term Loans with the proceeds of any Repricing Transaction described under clause (i) of the definition of Repricing Transaction with respect to Amendment No. 2 Incremental Term Loans, or (y) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction with respect to Amendment No. 2 Incremental Term Loans under clause (ii) of the definition of Repricing Transaction, the Borrowers shall on the date of such prepayment or amendment, as applicable, pay to each Amendment No. 2 Incremental Term Lender (I) in the case of such clause (x), 1.00% of the principal amount of the Amendment No. 2 Incremental Term Loans so prepaid and (II) in the case of such clause (y), 1.00% of the aggregate amount of the Amendment No. 2 Incremental Term Loans affected by such Repricing Transaction and outstanding on the effective date of such amendment (an “Amendment No. 2 Repricing Premium” and together with the Initial Term Repricing Premium, a “Repricing Premium”).

106

2.11            Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions.

(a)            If any Indebtedness shall be incurred by any Group Member (other than any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred by any such Person in accordance with Section 7.2), concurrently with, and as a condition to closing of such transaction, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in clause (g) of this Section 2.11.

(b)            Subject to clauses (d) and (i) of this Section 2.11, if, for any Excess Cash Flow Period, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, an amount equal to (i) the ECF Percentage for such period of such Excess Cash Flow over (ii) in each case at the option of the Borrower Representative and to the extent not funded with (x) the proceeds of Indebtedness constituting “long term indebtedness” (or a comparable caption) under GAAP (other than Indebtedness in respect of any revolving credit facility) or (y) the proceeds of Permitted Cure Securities applied pursuant to Section 9.4, the aggregate amount of (1) all Purchases by any Permitted Auction Purchaser (determined as the par value of the Loans purchased by such Permitted Auction Purchaser) pursuant to a Dutch Auction or open market purchase permitted hereunder, (2) voluntary prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Loans (but, in the case of Revolving Loans, only to the extent of a concurrent and permanent reduction in the Revolving Commitments), (3) optional prepayments, purchases and redemptions and buybacks (with credit given to the par value of the loans or notes repurchased) by UK Holdco and the Restricted Subsidiaries of other Indebtedness that is secured by a Lien ranking pari passu (determined without regard to the control of remedies) with the Lien securing the Obligations (but, in the case of revolving indebtedness, only to the extent of a concurrent and permanent reduction in the revolving commitments), (4) payments by UK Holdco and the Restricted Subsidiaries in cash on account of Capital Expenditures, (5) payments by UK Holdco and the Restricted Subsidiaries in cash on account of acquisitions or other Investments permitted hereunder (including any earn-out payments) and (6) Restricted Payments made in cash pursuant to Section 7.3(a), (b)(iv), (b)(v), (b)(vi), (b)(viii), (b)(x), (b)(xii), (b)(xiii), (b)(xix) and (b)(xxi), in each case, made during, or committed to be made within 12 months of the end of, the Excess Cash Flow Period (provided, however, that if any payment committed to be made is not actually made in cash within such period, such amount shall be added back to Excess Cash Flow for the subsequent Excess Cash Flow Period) or, at the option of the Borrower Representative, after the Excess Cash Flow Period and prior to the Excess Cash Flow Application Date, shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in clause (g) of this Section 2.11, provided that no such prepayment shall be made if the Excess Cash Flow for any Excess Cash Flow Period is less than $10,000,000 (and, if Excess Cash Flow exceeds such amount, only such excess shall be subject to prepayment). Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than 10 Business Days after the date on which the financial statements of UK Holdco referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders.

(c)            Subject to clauses (d) and (i) of this Section 2.11, if, on any date, UK Holdco or any Restricted Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or any Recovery Event in excess of (i) the greater of $2,000,000 and 0.7% of Consolidated EBITDA as of the most recently ended Reference Period in any single transaction or series of related transactions and (ii) with respect to all other Net Cash Proceeds not excluded pursuant to the preceding clause (i), the greater of $5,000,000 and 1.6% of Consolidated EBITDA as of the most recently ended Reference Period for all such Net Cash Proceeds in any fiscal year, then, unless the Borrower Representative has determined in good faith that such Net Cash Proceeds shall be reinvested in its business (a “Reinvestment Event”), an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within five Business Days of such date to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with this Section 2.11; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to any Asset Sale or Recovery Event, shall be applied to prepay the outstanding Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(g).

107

(d)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including clauses (b) and (c) above), to the extent that the Borrower Representative has determined in good faith that (i) any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale or Recovery Event by a Subsidiary or Excess Cash Flow attributable to Subsidiaries (or branches of Subsidiaries) are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the relevant Borrower(s) (including as a result of financial assistance and corporate benefit restrictions and fiduciary and statutory duties of the relevant directors), (ii) such repatriation would present a material risk of liability for the applicable Subsidiary or its directors or officers (or gives rise to a material risk of breach of fiduciary or statutory duties by any director or officers) or (iii) in the case of Foreign Subsidiaries, such repatriation or any distribution of the relevant amounts would reasonably be expected to result in material adverse Tax consequences, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Loans at the times set forth in this Section 2.11 but may be retained by the applicable Subsidiary or branch (the Borrowers hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Subsidiary or branch to promptly take commercially reasonable actions to permit such repatriation without violating applicable local law or incurring material adverse Tax consequences); provided, that for a period of 360 days from receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, if such repatriation becomes permitted under such applicable local law, would not present a material risk as described in clause (ii) above, or no such material adverse Tax consequences would result from such distribution, as the case may be, such distribution will be promptly effected and such distributed Net Cash Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than 10 Business Days after such distribution) applied (net of additional Taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11.

(e)            In the event the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans, L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans at any time exceeds (the “Revolving Excess”) the Total Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Revolving Borrowers shall immediately (or, if such Revolving Excess results solely from a Recalculation, within 2 Business Days) repay Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans and Collateralize Letters of Credit to the extent necessary to remove such Revolving Excess.

(f)            The Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Administrative Agent notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit E or such other form as may be approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), of each prepayment required under this Section 2.11, which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not less than three Business Days (or such shorter time as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree) prior to the date such prepayment shall be made. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of such notice. Each such Lender may reject all of its Pro Rata Share of any prepayment pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time), two Business Days after the date of such Lender’s receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent. If a 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 such prepayment. Any Declined Proceeds may be retained by the Borrowers (such retained amount, the “Retained Declined Proceeds”). The Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section 2.11, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment.

108

(g)            Amounts to be applied in connection with any mandatory prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.17(b). The application of any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be made on a pro rata basis regardless of Type. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.11 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans (to the extent all Revolving Loans are not being prepaid) and Swingline Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

(h)            Notwithstanding any of the other provision of this Section 2.11, if any prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.11 other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the applicable Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder with the Administrative Agent, to be held as security for the obligations of the applicable Borrower to make such prepayment pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent 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 any Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans in accordance with this Section 2.11 (determined as of the date such prepayment was required to be originally made); provided that such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with Section 2.15 until such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans have been prepaid. 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 any Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the applicable Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans in accordance with this Section 2.11 (determined as of the date such prepayment was required to be originally made). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any amounts held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this clause (h) pending application to any Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of such Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(i)            Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11, at the Borrower Representative’s option, outstanding Indebtedness that is secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis (determined without regard to the control of remedies) with the Obligations hereunder (“Other Applicable Indebtedness”) may share, on the terms set forth below, in any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(b) and/or (c), and the amount of any such prepayment required to be made hereunder shall be reduced accordingly. Any Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow may be applied to Other Applicable Indebtedness only to (and not in excess of) the extent to which a mandatory prepayment in respect of such Asset Sale, Recovery Event or Excess Cash Flow is required under the terms of such Other Applicable Indebtedness (with any remaining Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow applied to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof), unless such application would result in the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness receiving in excess of their pro rata share (determined on the basis of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time) of such Net Cash Proceeds relative to Term Lenders, in which case such Net Cash Proceeds may only be applied to Other Applicable Indebtedness on a pro rata basis with outstanding Term Loans. To the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such indebtedness repurchased, repaid or prepaid with any such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the declined amount of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow shall promptly (and, in any event, within 10 Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof (to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow would otherwise have been required to be applied if such Other Applicable Indebtedness was not then outstanding)

109

2.12            Conversion and Continuation Options.

(a)            The Borrower Representative may elect from time to time to convert Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election telephonically (provided that each telephonic notice is confirmed promptly in writing), substantially in the form of Exhibit H or such other form as approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), three Business Days prior to the proposed conversion date; provided that any such conversion of Eurocurrency Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower Representative may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election telephonically (provided that each telephonic notice is confirmed promptly in writing), substantially in the form of Exhibit H or such other form as approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor and the Class of the Loans); provided, however, that if the Borrower Representative wishes to request Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two (other than with respect to Term SOFR Loans), three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) seven Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing conversion, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is approved by all of them. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), four Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing conversion, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower Representative (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders; provided, further that, upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower Representative at the direction of the Required Lenders, no ABR Loan may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(b)            Any Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) giving irrevocable notice (which notice shall specify the Class of Loans) to the Administrative Agent telephonically (provided that each telephonic notice is confirmed promptly in writing), substantially in the form of Exhibit H or such other form as approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative, no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the proposed continuation date in the case of ~~Eurocurrency~~Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars or Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Euros or 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fourth Business Day preceding the proposed continuation date, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Australian Dollars; provided, however, that if the Borrower Representative wishes to request Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two (other than with respect to Term SOFR Loans), three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) seven Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing continuation, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), three Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing continuation, in the case of ~~Eurocurrency~~Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars or Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars or Euros or 11:00 p.m. (New York City time) four Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing continuation, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Australian Dollars, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower Representative (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders; provided, further that, to the extent the Required Lenders provide written notice thereof to the Borrower Representative, no Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that with respect to Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, if continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

110

(c)            If the Borrower Representative fails to give a timely notice requesting continuation or conversion from one Type of Loan to another, then the applicable Loans shall, subject to the final proviso to the preceding clause (b), be (i) in the case of ABR Loans, continued as ABR Loans or (ii) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, continued as Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, with an Interest Period of one month.

2.13            Limitations on Eurocurrency Tranches and Term SOFR Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, (a) the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars comprising each Eurocurrency Tranche or Term SOFR Tranche, as applicable, shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (b) the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Euros comprising each Eurocurrency Tranche shall be equal to €5,000,000 or a whole multiple of €1,000,000 in excess thereof, (c) the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Australian Dollars comprising each Eurocurrency Tranche shall be equal to A$5,000,000 or a whole multiple of A$1,000,000 in excess thereof and (d) (i) in the case of Term Loans, no more than five Eurocurrency Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time and (ii) in the case of Revolving Loans, no more than 10 Eurocurrency Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

2.14            Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

(a)            (i) Each Eurocurrency Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin, and (ii) each Term SOFR Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(b)            Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin.

(c)            Each Sterling Daily Rate Loan shall bear interest for each day outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the Sterling Daily Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin.

(d)            (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2% and (ii) if all or a portion of (x) any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, (y) any Commitment Fee or (z) any other amount payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility plus 2% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

111

(e)            Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to Section 2.14(d) shall be payable from time to time on demand.

(f)            Interest on each Loan shall be payable in the currency in which each Loan was made.

2.15            Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a)            Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to Sterling Daily Rate Loans and ABR Loans, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed or, in any case where the practice in the relevant market differs, in accordance with that market practice. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower Representative and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate or Term SOFR. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR, the Sterling Daily Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower Representative and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to an ABR Loan being converted from a Eurocurrency Loan or a Term SOFR Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan to such ABR Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to an ABR Loan being converted to a Eurocurrency Loan or a Term SOFR Loan, the date of conversion of such ABR Loan to such Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

(b)            Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower Representative, deliver to the Borrower Representative a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.14.

2.16            Inability to Determine Interest Rate; Illegality.

(a)            IfOther than with respect to the Revolving Facility, if prior to the first day of any Interest Period (i) the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period (and the circumstances described in Section 2.16(b) do not apply) or the Sterling Daily Rate, or (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that the Eurocurrency Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period, or the Sterling Daily Rate, as applicable, will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, as applicable, then the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans or Sterling Daily Rate Loans, as applicable, in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the ABR, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the ABR shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Majority Facility Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Loans or Interest Periods) or Sterling Daily Rate Loans, as applicable, or, failing that, (A) with respect to a pending request for Loans denominated in Dollars, the Borrower Representative will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein and (B) with respect to Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency, at the election of the Borrower Representative, (1) such request shall be converted into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans denominated in Dollars (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the Dollar Amount of the amount specified therein (and, in the case of any outstanding Eurocurrency Loans or Sterling Daily Rate Loans, regardless of whether such request is made, such Loans will automatically be deemed to be converted to ABR Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Amount of such Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, or on the date that is three Business Days after the receipt of such notice, in the case of Sterling Daily Rate Loans) or (2) the applicable Borrower shall repay such Eurocurrency Loans or Sterling Daily Rate Loans (to the extent outstanding) in full at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, or within three Business Days after the receipt of such notice, in the case of Sterling Daily Rate Loans; provided, however that if no such election is made by the Borrower Representative within three days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above.

112

(b)            ~~Notwithstanding~~Other than with respect to the Revolving Facility, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower Representative or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower Representative) that the Borrower Representative or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(i)            adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(ii)            the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans; provided that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that will continue to provide LIBOR after such specific date (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or

113

(iii)            syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 2.16, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR,

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing LIBOR in accordance with this Section 2.16 with (x) one or more SOFR-Based Rates or (y) another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar (or, with respect to the benchmark of another applicable currency, such applicable currency) denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar (or, with respect to the benchmark of another applicable currency, such applicable currency) denominated syndicated credit facilities for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (the “Adjustment;” and any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders (A) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (x), object to the Adjustment; or (B) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (y), object to such amendment; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of clause (A), the Required Lenders shall not be entitled to object to any SOFR-Based Rate contained in any such amendment. Such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower Representative.

If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower Representative and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) the Eurocurrency Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining ABR. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, (A) with respect to a pending request for Loans denominated in Dollars, the Borrower Representative will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein and (B) with respect to Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency, at the election of the Borrower Representative, (1) such request shall be converted into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans denominated in Dollars (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the Dollar Amount of the amount specified therein (and, in the case of any outstanding Eurocurrency Loans, regardless of whether such request is made, such Loans will automatically be deemed to be converted to ABR Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Amount of such Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period) or (2) the applicable Borrower shall repay such Eurocurrency Loans (to the extent outstanding) in full at the end of the applicable Interest Period; provided, however that if no such election is made by the Borrower Representative within three days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above.

114

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.

In connection with the implementation of a LIBOR Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes to the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

(i)            if prior to (x) the commencement of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans, (y) any relevant date of determination of the interest rate with respect to any Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency or (z) a conversion of ABR Loans to Term SOFR Loans or a continuation of any of such Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, (I) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) no Successor Rate for the Relevant Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency has been determined in accordance with Section 2.16(c)(ii) and the circumstances under Section 2.16(c)(ii)(1) or the Revolving Facility Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred with respect to such Relevant Rate (as applicable), or (B) adequate and reasonable means do not otherwise exist for determining the Relevant Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency for any determination date(s) or requested Interest Period, as applicable, with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan, a Revolving Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency or the determination of the Term SOFR component of the ABR in connection with an existing or proposed ABR Loan, or (II) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines, or is advised by the Required Lenders, that for any reason the Relevant Rate with respect to a proposed Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency for any requested Interest Period or determination date(s) does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower Representative and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Term SOFR Loans or Revolving Loans denominated in the relevant Alternative Currency, or to convert ABR Loans to Term SOFR Loans, as the case may be, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Term SOFR component of the ABR, the utilization of the Term SOFR component in determining the ABR shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in Section 2.16(c)(i)(II), until the Administrative Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrower Representative may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans or Revolving Loans denominated in the relevant Alternative Currency, as the case may be (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, or Interest Periods), or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request with respect to any Loan denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Amount of the amount specified therein into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans in the amount specified therein and (B) (i) any outstanding Term SOFR Loans shall be deemed to have been converted to ABR Loans at the end of the extant Interest Period and (ii) any outstanding affected Revolving Loan denominated in the relevant Alternative Currency, at the Borrower Representative’s option, will either (1) be converted into a Borrowing of ABR Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Amount of the amount of such outstanding Alternative Currency immediately or (2) be prepaid in full within three Business Days; provided that, in the case of a Revolving Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, if no election is made by the Borrower Representative by the date that is three Business Days after receipt by the Borrower Representative of such notice, the Borrower Representative will be deemed to have elected clause (1) above.

115

(ii)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower Representative or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower Representative) that the Borrower Representative or the Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(1)            adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Relevant Rate for an Agreed Currency because either (x) none of the one month, three month and six month interest periods of such Relevant Rate (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) is or (y) the Relevant Rate is not, in either case, available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(2)            the Applicable Authority (or any successor administrator thereof), in each case acting in such capacity, has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for an Agreed Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) or the Relevant Rate shall or will no longer be made available, or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of loans denominated in such Agreed Currency, or shall or will otherwise cease, provided, that, in each case, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower Representative, that will continue to provide such interest period(s) of the Relevant Rate or the Relevant Rate itself, in either case, for such Agreed Currency after such specific date (the latest date on which all tenors of the Relevant Rate or such Relevant Rate itself, in either case, for such Agreed Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) are no longer available permanently or indefinitely, the “Revolving Facility Scheduled Unavailability Date”);

or if the events or circumstances of the type described in Section 2.16(c)(ii)(1) or (2) have occurred with respect to the Successor Rate for the relevant Agreed Currency then in effect, then, (x) with respect to Term SOFR, on a date and time determined by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower Representative (any such date, the “Term SOFR Replacement Date”), which date shall be at the end of an Interest Period or on the relevant interest payment date, as applicable, for interest calculated and, solely with respect to clause (2) above, no later than the Revolving Facility Scheduled Unavailability Date, Term SOFR will be replaced hereunder and under any Loan Document with Daily Simple SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment for any payment period for interest calculated that can be determined by the Administrative Agent, in each case, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the “Term SOFR Successor Rate”), and (y) with respect to any other Relevant Rate (or if Daily Simple SOFR is not available on or prior to the Term SOFR Replacement Date), reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative may amend this Agreement to replace the Relevant Rate for an Agreed Currency or any then current Successor Rate for an Agreed Currency in accordance with this Section 2.16 with an alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the U.S. and denominated in such Agreed Currency for such alternative benchmarks, and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the U.S. and denominated in such Agreed Currency for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower Representative, from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (and any such proposed rate, including for the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment thereto, an “Other Relevant Rate Successor Rate” and together with the Term SOFR Successor Rate, a “Successor Rate”), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all relevant Lenders and the Borrower Representative unless, in the case of any amendments in connection with an Other Relevant Rate Successor Rate, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.

If the relevant Successor Rate is Daily Simple SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis.

The Administrative Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the Borrower Representative and each relevant Lender of the implementation of any Successor Rate.

Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower Representative.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than 0.00% per annum, the Successor Rate will be deemed to be 0.00% per annum, for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

In connection with the implementation of a Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower Representative, will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

(iii)            For purposes of this Section 2.16(c), those Lenders that either have not made, or do not have an obligation under this Agreement to make, the relevant Loans in the relevant Alternative Currency shall be excluded from any determination of Required Lenders.

(d)            ~~(c)~~ Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loan, Term SOFR Loan or Sterling Daily Rate Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan, Term SOFR Loan or Sterling Daily Rate Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower Representative and to the Administrative Agent:

(i)            any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or Sterling Daily Rate Loans, as the case may be, in the affected currency or currencies or to convert ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended and

(ii)            if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate or Term SOFR component, as the case may be, of the ABR, the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender, shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate or Term SOFR component, as the case may be, of the ABR,

in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

117

Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, (I) if applicable and such Loans are denominated in Dollars, convert all of such Lender’s affected Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the ABR) or (II) if applicable and such Loans are denominated in an Alternative Currency, the interest rate with respect to such Loans shall be determined by an alternative rate mutually acceptable to the Borrowers and the Lenders, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans or in the case of any Sterling Daily Rate Loans. In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under paragraphs (i) or (ii) of this clause (cd), all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or Sterling Daily Rate Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans (if applicable) made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or Sterling Daily Rate Loans. For purposes of this clause (cd), a notice to the Borrower Representative by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan; in all other cases, such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower Representative.

2.17            Pro Rata Treatment and Payments; Sharing of Payments by Lenders.

(a)            Each borrowing by the Borrowers from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by any Borrower on account of any Commitment Fee and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Term Percentages, Incremental Term Percentages or Revolving Percentages, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders.

(b)            Except as expressly set forth herein, each payment (including each prepayment) on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made pro rata to the Term Lenders according to the respective Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders. The amount of each optional prepayment of the Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.10 shall be applied as directed by the Borrower Representative in the notice described in Section 2.10 and, if no direction is given by the Borrower, in the direct order of maturity. The amount of each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11 (other than any such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(b)) shall be applied as directed by the Borrower Representative in the notice described in Section 2.11 and, if no direction is given by the Borrower Representative, in the direct order of maturity. The amount of each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(b) shall be applied in the direct order of maturity or as otherwise directed by the Borrower Representative. Except as expressly set forth herein, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Revolving Borrowers on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata to the Revolving Lenders according to the respective Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders.

118

(c)            Each payment or prepayment of the principal of, and interest on, any Loans shall be made in the relevant currency in which such Loans are denominated (even if the applicable Borrower is required to convert currency to do so). All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder and denominated in Dollars, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office, for the account of the Lenders, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder and denominated in an Alternative Currency, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 8:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office, for the account of the Lenders, in the applicable Alternative Currency and in immediately available funds. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Amount of the Alternative Currency payment amount. Any payments received after such time shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day at the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. Except as otherwise provided hereunder, if any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be required on the immediately preceding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(d)            Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor (a “Funding Default”), such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Overnight Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrowers. 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.

(e)            Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower Representative prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrowers hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers are making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily Overnight Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrowers.

119

(f)            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 Section 2 and such funds are not made available to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Loan set forth in Section 5 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.

(g)            The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and Revolving Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.13 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.13 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, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.13.

(h)            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.

2.18            Requirements of Law.

(a)            Subject to clause (c) of this Section 2.18, if any Change in Law shall (i) subject any Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Application or any Eurocurrency Loan, Sterling Daily Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan made by it, or change the basis of Taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for (x) any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (each of which is provided for in Section 2.19), (y) any Taxes described in clauses (i) through (vii) of the second sentence of Section 2.19(a) and (z) any Taxes which would have been compensated for under Section 2.19(a), Section 2.19(f) or Section 2.19(g) but were not so compensated because an exclusion in Section 2.19(b), Section 2.19(c), Section 2.19(d), Section 2.19(e) or Section 2.19(h) applied), (ii) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate, Sterling Daily Rate or Term SOFR or (iii) impose on such Lender any other condition (for the avoidance of doubt, other than Taxes), and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender by an amount that such Lender reasonably deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans, Sterling Daily Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrowers shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

(b)            Subject to clause (c) of this Section 2.18, if any Lender shall have determined that compliance by such Lender (or any corporation controlling such Lender) with any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Loans or Letters of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.18(b)), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.

120

(c)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including clauses (a) and (b) above), reimbursement pursuant to this Section 2.18 for (A) increased costs arising from any market disruption (i) shall be limited to circumstances generally affecting the banking market and (ii) may only be requested by Lenders representing the Majority Facility Lenders with respect to the applicable Facility and (B) increased costs because of any Change in Law resulting from clause (i) or (ii) of the proviso to the definition of “Change in Law” may only be requested by a Lender imposing such increased costs on borrowers similarly situated to the Borrowers under syndicated credit facilities comparable to those provided hereunder. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the additional amount shown as due on any such certificate promptly after, and in any event within, 10 Business Days of, receipt thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower Representative of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrowers pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.19            Taxes.

(a)            Except where required under applicable law, all payments made by the Loan Parties under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, including any penalties, interest and additional amounts with respect thereto, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”). Subject to Section 2.19(b), Section 2.19(c), Section 2.19(d), Section 2.19(e) and Section 2.19(h) below, if any applicable law requires any Taxes, excluding (i) Taxes imposed on or measured by net income and franchise Taxes (which franchise Taxes are imposed in lieu of net income Taxes) imposed on or with respect to the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such Tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document), (ii) branch profits Taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the United States of America or any similar Tax imposed by any other jurisdiction described in clause (i) above, (iii) United States withholding Taxes to the extent imposed pursuant to a Requirement of Law (or official interpretation or administration thereof) in effect at the time the relevant Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new lending office) except to the extent that such Lender (or its assignor, if any) would have been entitled at the time of designation of a new lending office (or assignment, if any) to receive additional amounts from the Borrowers with respect to such Taxes pursuant to this clause (a), (iv) Taxes that are attributable to a Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of clauses (j), (k), (l), (o), (q) or (u) of this Section 2.19, (v) Taxes imposed by sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code as in existence on the Closing Date (and any amended or successor versions of such provisions that are substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any current or future U.S. treasury regulations thereunder and official interpretations thereof, any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code and fiscal, tax or regulatory legislation, rules or official practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement, treaty or convention entered into in connection with the foregoing (“FATCA”), (vi) any Bank Levy and (vii) any withholding taxes applicable pursuant to the Luxembourg law of December 23, 2005 (such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, including any penalties, interest, and additional amounts with respect thereto, the “Non-Excluded Taxes”), or Other Taxes to be withheld from any amounts payable by the Loan Parties to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after making all required withholdings in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding been made. Within 30 days of a Loan Party making a payment subject to any deduction or withholding as mentioned in this Section 2.19(a), the Loan Party making such payment shall deliver to the Administrative Agent as agent for the relevant Lender or Lenders evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Lender that the relevant deduction or withholding has been made and (as applicable) any appropriate payment has been made to the relevant taxing authority.

121

(b)            A payment by a German Borrower shall not be increased pursuant to Section 2.19(a) by reason of a withholding or deduction for, or on account of, Taxes imposed by Germany if on the date on which the payment falls due (i) the payment could have been made to the Lender without a withholding or deduction if the Lender had been a German Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a German Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or German Treaty, or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority or (ii) the relevant Lender is a German Treaty Lender and the Loan Party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender, without the withholding or deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 2.19(k) below.

(c)            A payment by a Loan Party (other than in respect of an amount due in respect of a Term Loan) shall not be increased pursuant to Section 2.19(a) by reason of a UK Tax Deduction if on the date on which the payment falls due:

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

(ii)            the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of clause (a)(ii) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender and (A) an officer of H.M. Revenue & Customs has given (and not revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 931 of the ITA 2007 which relates to the payment and that Lender has received from the UK Borrower a certified copy of that Direction and (B) the payment could have been made to the Lender without any UK Tax Deduction if that Direction had not been made;

(iii)            the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of clause (a)(ii) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender and (A) the relevant Lender has not given a UK Tax Confirmation to the UK Borrower and (B) the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without any UK Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a UK Tax Confirmation to the UK Borrower, on the basis that the UK Tax Confirmation would have enabled the UK Borrower to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the ITA 2007; or

(iv)            the relevant Lender is a UK Treaty Lender and the Loan Party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the UK Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 2.19(k) (subject to Section 2.19(l)) or Section 2.19(m) as applicable.

(e)            A payment by a Luxembourg Borrower shall not be increased pursuant to Section 2.19(a) by reason of a withholding or deduction for, or on account of, Taxes imposed by Luxembourg if on the date on which the payment falls due (i) the payment could have been made to the Lender without a withholding or deduction if the Lender had been a Luxembourg Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Luxembourg Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Luxembourg Treaty, or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority or (ii) the relevant Lender is a Luxembourg Treaty Lender and the Loan Party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender, without the withholding or deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 2.19(k) below.

(f)            The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 10 Business Days after written demand therefor (which written demand shall be made no later than 180 days after the earlier of (1) the date on which the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, received written demand for payment of the applicable Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes from the relevant Governmental Authority or (2) the date on which the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, paid the applicable Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, that failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, to make such written demand shall not constitute a waiver of the right of the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, to demand indemnity and reimbursement for such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes, except to the extent that such failure or delay results in prejudice to the Borrowers) for the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by any Loan Party under any Loan Document (including Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.19 paid by such Person and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, but excluding Non-Excluded Taxes to the extent compensated under Section 2.19(a) or Taxes to the extent that such Taxes would have been compensated for by Section 2.19(a) or Section 2.19(g) but were not so compensated because one of the exclusions in Section 2.19(b), Section 2.19(c), Section 2.19(d), Section 2.19(e), Section 2.19(g) or Section 2.19(h) applied). A certificate stating the amount of such payment or liability and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation thereof delivered to the Borrower Representative by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Statements payable by any Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall be submitted to the Borrower Representative at the address specified under Section 11.2.

123

(g)            Without duplication of clauses (a) or (f) above, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, except for any Luxembourg Taxes payable due to the registration of a Loan Document with the Administration de l’Enregistrement, des Domaines et de la TVA in Luxembourg within the same circumstances as referred to under Section 2.19(h)(i) and (ii) below.

(h)            A payment shall not be required to be made by a Loan Party pursuant to Section 2.19(a), Section 2.19(f) or Section 2.19(g) for, or on account of, Other Taxes where (i) such Other Taxes are imposed with respect to an assignment or transfer of any Lender’s rights or any participation or sub-contract by a Lender (other than in the course of primary syndication, pursuant to Section 2.23 (other than Section 2.23(c)) or after a Default), or (ii) such Other Taxes derive from the voluntary registration of a Loan Document by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any Lender where such registration is not required to maintain, preserve, establish or enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent or that Lender under a Loan Document.

(i)            Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Borrowers, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrowers shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, (A) where that payment is in connection with a UK Tax Deduction, a statement under section 975 of the ITA 2007 or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that the UK Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to HM Revenue & Customs, or (B) in any other case, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrowers showing payment thereof, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(j)            Each Lender (or Assignee) that is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) and the Administrative Agent two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 and a Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not the beneficial owner, such Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) and the Administrative Agent two executed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or Exhibit C-3, Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable (in each case, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto); provided, further, that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such direct or indirect partner). Any Lender (or Assignee) that is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) and the Administrative Agent two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Person claiming complete exemption from backup withholding on all payments by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) with respect to any Revolving Loan made to a US Loan Party, and with respect to any Term Loan, a duly completed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or, in the case of a successor Administrative Agent that is not organized in the United States, a duly executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (y)(A) certifying that such Administrative Agent is a qualified intermediary, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1441-1(e)(5)(ii) (or any successor thereto) and (B) assuming primary responsibility for U.S. federal income tax withholding with respect to payments to be received by it on behalf of the Lenders or (z) evidencing its agreement with the Borrowers to be treated as a United States person with respect to payments on such Loans for U.S. federal income tax purposes in accordance with Treasury Regulation 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)(A) (or any successor thereto)). The forms and certification referenced in the previous three sentences (the “Forms”) shall be delivered by the Administrative Agent and each Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall deliver the Forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any Forms previously delivered by the Administrative Agent and such Lender and upon the written request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered Form to the Borrower Representative (or any other form or certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (j), the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall not be required to deliver any Form pursuant to this paragraph (j) that the Administrative Agent and such Lender is not legally able to deliver.

124

(k)            The Administrative Agent and each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax (other than U.S. federal withholding Tax) under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Loan Party is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under any Loan Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a Luxembourg Treaty Lender, a German Treaty Lender, a Spanish Treaty Lender and a UK Treaty Lender) shall (subject, in the case of a UK Treaty Lender with respect to an exemption from or reduction of a UK Tax Deduction, to Section 2.19(l)) (i) cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for a Loan Party making a payment to that Lender or the Administrative Agent to obtain authorization to make that payment without a withholding or deduction for, or on account of, Tax, and (ii) deliver to the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or any treaty as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, Tax or at a reduced rate, provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, is legally entitled to complete such procedural formalities or complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s judgment, as applicable, such completion of such procedural formalities or such completion, execution or submission of such documentation would not materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the Administrative Agent and such Lender.

(l)            A UK Treaty Lender which becomes (i) a party to this Agreement on the Closing Date that (x) holds a passport under the HM Revenue & Customs DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence opposite its name in Schedule 1.1A; or (ii) a Lender hereunder after the Closing Date that (x) holds a passport under the HM Revenue & Customs DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in the relevant Assignment or Assumption, Refinancing Amendment or Incremental Amendment pursuant to which such Lender becomes a party hereto or otherwise in writing to the UK Borrower within 15 days of it become a party to this Agreement, and having done so, such UK Treaty Lender shall have satisfied its obligation under clause (k) above in respect of a UK Tax Deduction.

125

(m)            If a UK Treaty Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with clause (l) above and

(i)            a UK Borrower making a payment to that Lender has not made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender; or

(ii)            a UK Borrower making a payment to that Lender has made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender but:

(1)            such Borrower DTTP Filing has been rejected by HM Revenue & Customs; or

(2)            HM Revenue & Customs has not given that UK Borrower authority to make payments to that Lender without a Tax Deduction within 60 days of the date of the Borrower DTTP Filing,

and in each case, the UK Borrower has notified that UK Treaty Lender in writing of either (1) or (2) above, then such UK Treaty Lender and the UK Borrower shall co-operate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for that UK Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without a UK Tax Deduction.

(iii)            If a UK Treaty Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with clause (l) above, no Loan Party shall make a Borrower DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the HM Revenue & Custom DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that UK Treaty Lender's Commitment(s) or its participation in any Loan unless the UK Treaty Lender otherwise agrees.

(iv)            A Loan Party shall, promptly on making a Borrower DTTP Filing, deliver a copy of such Borrower DTTP Filing to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the relevant UK Treaty Lender.

(v)            A UK Non-Bank Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement on the Closing Date gives a UK Tax Confirmation to the UK Borrower by entering into this Agreement. A UK Non-Bank Lender shall promptly notify the UK Borrower and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set out in the UK Tax Confirmation.

(n)            If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund (whether in the form of cash or as a credit against, or as a reduction of, a tax liability) of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Loan Parties or with respect to which the Loan Parties have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19, it shall pay over such refund to the relevant Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Loan Parties under this Section 2.19 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the relevant Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Loan Parties (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (n), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Loan Parties pursuant to this paragraph (n) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph (n) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower Representative or any other Person.

126

(o)            If a payment made to the Administrative Agent or a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if the Administrative Agent or 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), the Administrative Agent and such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for any Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that the Administrative Agent or such Lender has complied with the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (o), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

(p)            Each Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement after the Closing Date (a “New Lender”) shall indicate in the Assignment and Assumption, Refinancing Amendment or Incremental Amendment pursuant to which such Lender will became a party hereto, which of the following categories it falls in: (i) in relation to a Luxembourg Borrower (a) not a Luxembourg Qualifying Lender, (b) a Luxembourg Qualifying Lender (other than a Luxembourg Treaty Lender), or (c) a Luxembourg Treaty Lender; (ii) in relation to a UK Borrower (a) not a UK Qualifying Lender, (b) a UK Qualifying Lender (other than a UK Treaty Lender), or (c) a UK Treaty Lender; (iii) in relation to a German Borrower (a) not a German Qualifying Lender, (b) a German Qualifying Lender (other than a German Treaty Lender), or (c) a German Treaty Lender; and (iv) in relation to a Spanish Borrower (a) not a Spanish Qualifying Lender, (b) a Spanish Qualifying Lender (other than a Spanish Treaty Lender or an EU Lender), (c) an EU Lender; or (d) a Spanish Treaty Lender. If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 2.19(p) then such New Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement as if it was not a Luxembourg Qualifying Lender, not a UK Qualifying Lender, not a German Qualifying Lender or not at Spanish Qualifying Lender, as applicable, until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category applies (and the Administrative Agent upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Borrower Representative). For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Assumption, Refinancing Amendment or Incremental Amendment shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 2.19(p).

(q)            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 Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrowers) and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(r)            Without limiting any other provisions of this Agreement, each Lender that would not qualify for a complete exemption from withholding Taxes with respect to payments made under any Loan Document at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, shall consider in good faith, but not be required, to take actions, including assigning any of its Commitments and Loans to an affiliate of such Lender, so as to reasonably limit any obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.19.

127

(s)            The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(t)            VAT.

(i)            All amounts expressed to be payable under any Loan Document by any party to this Agreement to a Lender 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 (ii) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender to any party to this Agreement under any Loan Document and such Lender is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that party must pay to such Lender (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 Lender must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that party).

(ii)            If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender (the “Supplier”) to any other Lender (the “Recipient”) under any Loan Document, and any party 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):

(1)            (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 clause (1) 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

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

(iv)            Any reference in this Section 2.19(t) to any party shall, at any time when such party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning as in the Value Added Tax Xxx 0000 or in the relevant legislation of any other jurisdiction having implemented Council Directive 2006/112/EC on the common system of value added tax).

128

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

(u)            Each (i) Spanish Qualifying Lender under paragraphs (d) or (e) of the definition of “Spanish Qualifying Lender” and (ii) Lender who is not resident for tax purposes in Spain but is entitled to the benefits of a Spanish Treaty providing for a reduction of a Spanish Tax Deduction applicable on interest shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date on which it becomes a Party to this Agreement, and in any event before any payment is due or made, whichever comes first, deliver to the Spanish Borrower through the Administrative Agent a certificate of tax residence (or the specific form or documentation required under the relevant Spanish Treaty) duly issued by the competent tax authorities of that Lender’s jurisdiction of tax residence evidencing such Lender as resident for tax purposes in that jurisdiction and, if a Spanish Treaty Lender or a Lender entitled to the benefits of a Spanish Treaty, evidencing such Lender as resident for tax purposes in that jurisdiction and declaring that it is entitled to the benefits of the relevant Spanish Treaty. Each such Lender shall be required to deliver a new certificate of tax residence each time the existing certificate expires in accordance with the Spanish laws and regulations.

For purposes of this Section 2.19, the term Lender shall include any Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender.

2.20            [Reserved].

2.21            Indemnity. The Borrowers agree to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by any Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans, Sterling Daily Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans after the Borrower Representative has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrowers in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurocurrency Loans, Sterling Daily Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans after the Borrower Representative has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, reduced, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, reduce, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, reduce, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest or other return for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurocurrency market; provided that the foregoing shall not apply in respect of the Revolving Facility in the case of any benchmark rate that is not an interbank eurocurrency rate. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower Representative by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

129

2.22            Change of Lending Office.

(a)            Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Sections 2.18 or 2.19 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower Representative, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage (with respect to which such Lender is not reimbursed), and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Sections 2.18 or 2.19.

(b)            Subject to clause (a) above, and without prejudice to the rights and obligations (but subject to the terms and requirements) in Section 2.19, each Borrower agrees that each Lender may, at its option, make any Loan available to any Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan, and that any exercise of such option shall not shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of any Lender pursuant to this Agreement (except to the extent that, for the avoidance of doubt, the exercise of such option changes such Lender’s status as a UK Qualifying Lender, a German Qualifying Lender, a Spanish Qualifying Lender or a Luxembourg Qualifying Lender for the purposes of Section 2.19).

2.23            Replacement of Lenders. The Borrowers shall be permitted to replace, or, notwithstanding Section 2.17, prepay the applicable Loans and terminate the applicable Commitments (on a non pro rata basis among Lenders generally), of any Lender (a) where a Loan Party is obligated to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments under Section 2.19, (b) that requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.16 or 2.18, (c) that becomes a Defaulting Lender or otherwise defaults in its obligation to make Loans hereunder or (d) that has not consented to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by Section 11.1 that requires the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders under a particular Facility or each Lender affected thereby and which has been approved by the Required Lenders as provided in Section 11.1, with a Lender or Eligible Assignee; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) in the case of clause (a) or (b), prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.22 sufficient to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.16, 2.18 or 2.19, (iii) the replacement financial institution or other Eligible Assignee shall purchase, or the applicable Borrowers shall repay, all Loans and other amounts (or, in the case of clause (d) as it relates to provisions affecting a particular Facility, Loans or other amounts owing under such Facility) owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the Borrowers shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.21 if any Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) in the case of any replacement, the replacement financial institution or other Eligible Assignee, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vi) in the case of any replacement, the replaced Lender shall be deemed to have made such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6, (vii) until such time as such replacement or prepayment and termination shall be consummated, the Borrowers shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Sections 2.16, 2.18, 2.19(a) or 2.19(f), as the case may be, and (viii) any such replacement or prepayment and termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. Upon any such assignment, such replaced Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof (or, in the case of clause (d) as it relates to provisions affecting a particular Facility, a Lender under such Facility); provided that any rights of such replaced Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such replaced Lender. Each Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers agree that in connection with the replacement of a Lender and upon payment to such replaced Lender of all amounts required to be paid under this Section 2.23, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall be authorized, without the need for additional consent from such replaced Lender, to execute an Assignment and Assumption on behalf of such replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Assumption so executed by the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers and, to the extent required under Section 11.6, the Borrowers, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.23 and Section 11.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.23, in the event that a Lender which holds Loans or Commitments under more than one Facility does not agree to a proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver which requires the consent of all Lenders under a particular Facility, the Borrowers shall be permitted to replace or, notwithstanding Section 2.17, prepay the applicable Loans and terminate the applicable Commitments of the non-consenting Lender with respect to the affected Facility and may, but shall not be required to, replace such Lender with respect to any unaffected Facilities.

130

2.24            Evidence of Debt; Notes. The Loans and other credit extensions hereunder made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender in the ordinary course of business. The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register in accordance with Section 11.6(b)(vi). The accounts or records maintained by each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans and other credit extensions hereunder 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 joint and several obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the Register, the Register shall control in the absence of manifest error. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the applicable Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 11.6) (promptly after the Borrower Representative’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to 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), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

2.25            Incremental Credit Extensions.

Subject to the terms of this Section 2.25:

(a)            A Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor may, at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) and the Person appointed by the Borrower Representative to arrange an Incremental Facility (such Person, who may be the Administrative Agent, if it so agrees, or any other Person appointed by the Borrower Representative, the “Incremental Arranger”), request one or more additional tranches of term loans and/or one or more increases to the amount of any Class of Term Loans then outstanding (the commitments thereof, the “Incremental Term Commitments”, the loans thereunder, the “Incremental Term Loans”, and a Lender making such loans, an “Incremental Term Lender”) and/or one or more additional tranches of revolving loans (the “Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments”) and/or one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Commitments of any Class (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”, the loans thereunder and under any Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Revolving Loans”, and a Lender making a commitment to provide such Incremental Revolving Loans, an “Incremental Revolving Lender”); provided that the Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors may incur Incremental Term Commitments that are intended to be fungible with the Initial Term Loans on no more than five occasions prior to the initial Term Loan Maturity Date unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees; provided, further, that:

(i)            after giving effect to any such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, any such Revolving Commitment Increase and any such Incremental Term Loans, the aggregate amount of such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, Revolving Commitment Increases and Incremental Term Loans shall not exceed an amount equal to the sum of (x) an unlimited amount at any time so long as the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio on a Pro Forma Basis (but without giving effect to the cash proceeds of such Incremental Term Loans or of any Incremental Revolving Loans incurred pursuant to such Revolving Commitment Increase or such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments remaining on the balance sheet) as of the most recently ended Reference Period (calculated assuming that such Revolving Commitment Increase or Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitment is fully drawn throughout such period) does not exceed the greater of (A) 5.00 to 1.00 and (B) if incurred to finance an acquisition or other Investment permitted hereunder, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the most recently ended Reference Period, plus (y) the amount of all prior voluntary prepayments, loan buybacks (with credit given to the principal amount thereof) and commitment reductions of Term Loans, Revolving Loans, Incremental Loans, Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(vi) that is secured by a Lien on the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Obligations and Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt and Refinancing Indebtedness previously applied to the permanent repayment of any of the foregoing and the amount of any prepayments made to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.23, with any replacement of a Lender pursuant thereto being deemed, solely for this purpose, to constitute a prepayment (in each case to the extent not funded with the proceeds of long-term Indebtedness (except Indebtedness under one or more revolving credit or similar facilities) or the proceeds of Permitted Cure Securities applied pursuant to Section 9.4 and, with respect to any prepayment or commitment reduction of or in respect of revolving loans, to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction in such revolving commitments) less the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness incurred under Section 7.2(b)(vi)(y), plus (z) an amount equal to the greater of $325,000,000 and 100% of Consolidated EBITDA on a Pro Forma Basis as of the most recently ended Reference Period (and after giving effect to any acquisition or other transaction consummated concurrently therewith) less the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Indebtedness incurred under Section 7.2(b)(vi)(z) (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount available to the Borrowers pursuant to clauses (y) and (z) above shall be available at all times and shall not be subject to any ratio test described in foregoing clause (x)); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, if the applicable Borrower incurs Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or a Revolving Commitment Increase under clause (x) above on the same date that it incurs indebtedness under clauses (y) or (z) above, then the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio will be calculated with respect to such incurrence under clause (x) without regard to any incurrence of indebtedness under clauses (y) or (z) above. Unless the Borrower Representative elects otherwise, any Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increase shall be deemed incurred first under clause (x) above, with the balance incurred under clauses (y) and (z) above. The Borrower Representative may designate any Incremental Arranger of any Incremental Facility with such titles under the Incremental Facility as Borrower Representative may deem appropriate.

131

(ii)            the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder;

(iii)            any Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments shall not mature earlier than the Revolving Termination Date and shall not have amortization or scheduled mandatory commitment reductions (other than at the maturity thereof) and all other material terms (other than pricing, maturity, upfront, arrangement, structuring, underwriting, ticking, consent, amendment and other fees, participation in mandatory prepayments or commitment reductions and immaterial terms, which shall be determined by the Borrower Representative) shall (x) be substantially consistent with the existing Revolving Facility or (y) be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being understood that if any financial maintenance covenant or other more favorable provision (other than pricing, maturity, upfront, arrangement, structuring, underwriting, ticking, consent, amendment and other fees, participation in mandatory prepayments or commitment reductions and immaterial terms) is added for the benefit of any Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, no consent shall be required from the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the extent that such financial maintenance covenant or such other provision is (i) also added for the benefit of any then-existing Revolving Facility, in which case such terms may be incorporated into this Agreement (or any other applicable Loan Document) for the benefit of the Revolving Facility without further amendment or consent requirements or (ii) only applicable after the Revolving Termination Date);

132

(iv)            other than Customary Bridge Financings and Indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Inside Maturity Basket, the Incremental Term Loans shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Initial Term Loans and the Amendment No. 2 Incremental Term Loans determined at the time of incurrence and shall not mature earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date;

(v)            subject to clause (iv) above, the interest rates and the amortization schedule applicable to any such Incremental Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower Representative and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders;

(vi)            no Event of Default shall exist on the Incremental Facility Closing Date with respect to any Incremental Amendment entered into in connection therewith (and after giving effect to any Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Loans made thereunder); provided, however, that in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, the absence of an Event of Default shall be tested on the date specified in Section 1.4;

(vii)            with respect to any Dollar denominated Incremental Term Loans in the form of broadly syndicated term “B” loans, if the all-in-yield (whether in the form of interest rate margins, including interest rate floors (subject to clause (1) of the first proviso in this clause (vii)), upfront fees or OID (with any OID being equated to interest margin based on an assumed four-year life to maturity)) with respect to the Incremental Term Loans made thereunder paid by any Borrower to all lenders generally (as determined by the Borrower Representative and the applicable Incremental Arranger) (but excluding any arrangement, commitment, ticking, structuring or other similar fees payable in connection therewith, which shall not be included and equated to interest rate) with respect to the Incremental Term Loans made thereunder exceeds the all-in yield (after giving effect to interest rate margins (including the interest rate floors (subject to clause (1) of the first proviso in this clause (vii)) and OID (equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity or, if shorter, the remaining life to maturity thereof) paid by any Borrower to all lenders generally (computed in a manner consistent with the foregoing) with respect to the Initial Term Loans or the Amendment No. 2 Incremental Term Loans, as applicable, that are denominated in the same currency as such Incremental Term Loans, as the case may be, after giving effect to any increase or repricing thereof that has theretofore become effective (it being understood that if any such repricing was effected as a refinancing tranche, the OID applicable to the refinanced loans shall be taken into account), by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Incremental Yield Differential”), then, upon the effectiveness of such Incremental Amendment, the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Initial Term Loans or Amendment Xx. 0 Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxx Loans, as applicable, denominated in the same currency shall automatically be increased by the Incremental Yield Differential (this clause (vii), after giving effect to the final proviso to this clause (vii), the “MFN Provision”); provided, (1) if the Incremental Term Loans include an interest-rate floor greater than the interest rate floor applicable to such Term Loans, the differential between such interest rate floors shall be equated to the interest rate margins for purposes of determining whether an increase to the Applicable Margin shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor applicable to such Term Loans would cause an increase in the Applicable Margin, and in such case either the interest rate floor or the Applicable Margin (at the election of the Borrower Representative) applicable to such Term Loans shall be increased to the extent of such differential between interest rate floors and (2) any Incremental Term Loans that constitute fixed-rate Indebtedness shall be swapped to a floating rate on a customary matched-maturity basis; provided further that the MFN Provision shall not apply to (A) any Incremental Term Loans having an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the greater of $250,000,000 and 75% of Consolidated EBITDA as of the most recently ended Reference Period (as selected by the Borrower Representative), (B) Incremental Term Loans scheduled to mature on or after the date that is one year after the Term Loan Maturity Date as of the Closing Date, (C) Incremental Term Loans incurred after the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date (or, solely in the case of Amendment No. 2 Incremental Term Loans, after the date that is 6 months after the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date) or (D) Incremental Term Loans incurred in connection with an acquisition or other Investment permitted hereunder;

133

(viii)            the Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases may be denominated in Dollars, any Alternative Currency and any other currency acceptable to the Incremental Arranger and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders or Incremental Revolving Lenders, as the case may be;

(ix)            no Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases may be secured by any assets other than the Collateral and no Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Commitment Increases shall be guaranteed by any person other than the Borrowers and the Guarantors;

(x)            any Incremental Term Loans may provide for the ability to participate (A) on a pro rata basis or non-pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayment of Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and (B) on a pro rata or less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis, other than in the case of prepayment with proceeds of Indebtedness refinancing such Incremental Term Loans) in any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required pursuant to Section 2.11;

(xi)            except as otherwise required or permitted by the foregoing, all other terms of any Incremental Term Loans shall be as agreed between the applicable Borrowers and the Incremental Term Lenders; provided that if such Incremental Term Loans benefit from a financial covenant that is more restrictive than Section 7.1 of this Agreement, such financial covenant shall be either (A) conformed (or added) to the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders pursuant to an amendment agreement between the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrowers or (B) applicable only to periods after the Revolving Termination Date or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and

(xii)            no Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments may be provided by an Affiliate of UK Holdco.

(b)            The Revolving Commitment Increases shall be treated substantially the same as the Revolving Commitments being increased, and shall be considered to be part of the Class of Revolving Facility being increased (it being understood that (x) if required to consummate the provision of Revolving Commitment Increases, the pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors and facility fees on the Class of Revolving Commitments being increased may be increased and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the lenders providing the Revolving Commitment Increase (without any requirement to pay such fees to any existing Revolving Lenders or the requirement to obtain the consent of any Lender) and (y) other terms that are more favorable to the lenders providing the Revolving Commitment Increase may be incorporated into this Agreement (or any other applicable Loan Document) for the benefit of the Class of Revolving Commitments being increased without the need for the consent of any Lender). Each notice from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent and the Incremental Arranger pursuant to Section 2.25(a) shall set forth the requested amount and principal proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increase.

134

(c)            Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases may be provided, by any existing Lender or any Additional Lender (provided that no existing Lender shall be obligated to provide any portion of any Incremental Facility), in each case on terms permitted in this Section 2.25, and, to the extent not permitted in this Section 2.25, all terms and documentation with respect to any Incremental Term Loan, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitment Increase which relate to provisions of a mechanical (including with respect to the Collateral and currency mechanics) or administrative nature, shall in each case be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute, accept or acknowledge any Incremental Amendment (as defined below) or related documentation which contains (by express language or omission) any material deviation from the terms of this Section 2.25. Commitments in respect of Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases shall become Commitments (or in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Lender, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Revolving Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower Representative, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and, in the case of an Incremental Facility incurred by a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Subsidiary Guarantor (it being understood and agreed that any such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be organized in an Applicable Jurisdiction). The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Incremental Arranger and the Borrower Representative, to effect the provisions of this Section (including (i) any amendments that are not adverse to the interests of any Lender that are made to effectuate changes necessary to enable any Incremental Term Loans that are intended to be fungible with an existing Class of Term Loans to be fungible with such Term Loans, which shall include any amendments to Section 2.3 that do not reduce the ratable amortization received by each Lender thereunder and (ii) any amendments that are reasonably necessary to account for any Subsidiary Guarantor as a Borrower, in each case without the need for any further consent); provided that any terms relating to provisions of an operational nature (including with respect to the Collateral and currency mechanics) or administrative nature shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). Notwithstanding anything in Section 5.2 to the contrary, the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment and the occurrence of any credit event (including the making (but not the conversion or continuation) of a Loan and the issuance, increase in the amount, or extension of a Letter of Credit thereunder) pursuant to such Incremental Amendment shall be subject solely to the satisfaction of such conditions as the parties thereto shall agree and the conditions set forth in this Section 2.25 (the effective date of any such Incremental Amendment, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”). The Borrowers will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans, Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

(d)            Upon each Revolving Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section, each Revolving Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Revolving Commitment Increase (each a “Revolving Commitment Increase Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (ii) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Lender (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders represented by such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and if, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase either be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans made hereunder or assigned to a Revolving Commitment Increase Lender (in each case, reflecting such increase in Revolving Commitments, such that Revolving Loans are held ratably in accordance with each Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share, after giving effect to such increase), which prepayment or assignment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.21 (it being understood that the foregoing provisions shall apply only to an increase in the amount of the Revolving Commitments of any Class and not to any additional tranches of Revolving Loans). The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.25(d) shall apply only to such Class of Revolving Commitments that are the same Class as the Incremental Revolving Loans and shall not apply to any other Class of Revolving Loans.

135

(e)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.25 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.17, 5.2 or 11.1 to the contrary and Section 2.17 shall be deemed to be amended to implement any Incremental Amendment.

(f)            If the Incremental Arranger is not the Administrative Agent, the actions authorized to be taken by the Incremental Arranger herein shall be done in consultation with the Administrative Agent and, with respect to the preparation of any documentation necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this Section 2.25 (including amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), any comments to such documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent shall be reflected therein.

2.26            Refinancing Amendments.

(a)            At any time after the Closing Date, a Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt in respect of (1) all or any portion of the Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (1) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) or (2) all or any portion of the Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (2) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Revolving Loans and Other Revolving Commitments), in the form of (x) Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments or (y) Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt:

(i)            shall not be permitted to rank senior in right of payment or security to the other Loans and Commitments hereunder;

(ii)            will have such pricing, premiums, optional prepayment terms and financial covenants as may be agreed by the Borrower Representative and the Lenders thereof;

(iii)            (x) with respect to any Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, will have a maturity date that is not prior to the maturity date of Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) being Refinanced and (y) other than Customary Bridge Financings and Indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Inside Maturity Basket, with respect to any Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments, will have a maturity date that is not prior to the maturity date of, and will have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than, the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans being Refinanced determined at the time of incurrence;

136

(iv)            subject to clause (ii) above, will have terms and conditions that are (i) substantially identical to, or, taken as a whole, not materially more favorable to the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt than, the Refinanced Debt (as determined by the Borrower Representative in good faith), (ii) then-current market terms (as determined by the Borrower Representative in good faith at the time of incurrence or issuance (or the obtaining of a commitment with respect thereto)) for the applicable type of Indebtedness; provided that if such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt benefits from a financial covenant that is more restrictive than Section 7.1 of this Agreement, such financial covenant shall be either (A) conformed (or added) to the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders pursuant to an amendment agreement between the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrowers or (B) applicable only to periods after the Revolving Termination Date or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or (iii) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (it being understood that if any financial maintenance covenant or other more favorable provision is added for the benefit of any Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt, no consent shall be required from the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the extent that such financial maintenance covenant or other provision is (i) also added for the benefit of the Refinanced Debt, in which case such terms may be incorporated into this Agreement (or any other applicable Loan Document) for the benefit of the Refinanced Debt without further amendment or consent requirements or (ii) only applicable after the maturity of the Refinanced Debt);

(v)            the proceeds of such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the prepayment of outstanding Term Loans or reduction of Revolving Commitments being so Refinanced (and repayment of Revolving Loans outstanding thereunder); and

(vi)            shall not be secured by any assets other than the Collateral and shall not be guaranteed by any person other than the Borrowers and the Guarantors.

The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 (unless waived by the Lenders providing such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt) and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Refinancing Arranger, receipt by the Refinancing Arranger of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 5.1 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in facts or changes to counsel’s form of opinion). Any Refinancing Amendment may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower Representative or any Restricted Subsidiary, pursuant to any Other Revolving Commitments established thereby, in each case on terms substantially equivalent to the terms applicable to Letters of Credit under the Revolving Commitments subject to the approval of the Issuing Lenders.

(b)            The Refinancing Arranger shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Term Loans, Other Revolving Loans, Other Revolving Commitments and/or Other Term Commitments).

(c)            Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of Refinancing Arranger and the Borrower Representative, in consultation with the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Refinancing Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Lender, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the then-existing Revolving Termination Date shall be reallocated on such date from Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding extended revolving commitments in accordance with the terms of such Refinancing Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding revolving commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such revolving commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.

137

(d)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 2.26 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.17 or 11.1 to the contrary and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may amend Section 2.17 to implement any Refinancing Amendment.

(e)            If the Refinancing Arranger is not the Administrative Agent, the actions authorized to be taken by the Refinancing Arranger herein shall be done in consultation with the Administrative Agent and, with respect to the preparation of any documentation necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this Section 2.26 (including amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), any comments to such documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent shall be reflected therein.

2.27            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. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of “Required Lenders”, “Majority Revolving Lenders” and “Majority Term Lenders” and otherwise as set forth in Section 11.1.

(ii)            Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 9 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.8), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, in the case of a Revolving Lender, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders and the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, in the case of a Revolving Lender, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Advances and such Lender is a Defaulting Lender under clause (a) of the definition thereof, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the relevant Loans of, and L/C Advances owed to, the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied pursuant to Section 3.2(b). 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 Section 3.2(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

138

(iii)            Certain Fees. Such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive or accrue Letter of Credit fees, any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.8(a) or any default interest pursuant to Section 2.14(d) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee or interest that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(iv)            Reallocation of Applicable Percentages 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 Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit pursuant to Sections 2.7 and 3.4, respectively, the “Pro Rata Share” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided that the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, Refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Commitment of such non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans of such Lender. In the event non-Defaulting Lenders’ obligations to acquire, Refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit are increased as a result of a Defaulting Lender, then all Letter of Credit fees that would have been paid to such Defaulting Lender shall be paid to such non-Defaulting Lenders ratably in accordance with such increase of such non-Defaulting Lender’s obligations to acquire, Refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit.

(b)            Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender agree in writing 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), such 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 Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share (without giving effect to Section 2.27(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties and subject to Section 11.16, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c)            No Release. Subject to Section 11.16, the provisions hereof attributable to Defaulting Lenders shall not release or excuse any Defaulting Lender from failure to perform its obligations hereunder.

139

2.28            Loan Modification Offers.

(a)            The Borrowers may, on one or more occasions, by written notice from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes on the same terms to each such Lender (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, a “Specified Class”) to make one or more Permitted Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by any Person that is not an Affiliate of any Borrower appointed by the Borrower Representative, after consultation (and, with respect to any documentation requiring execution of the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) with the Administrative Agent, as agent under such Loan Modification Agreement (as defined below) (such Person (who may be the Administrative Agent, if it so agrees), the “Loan Modification Agent”) and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower Representative; provided that (i) any such offer shall be made by the Borrowers to all Lenders of the Specified Class on a pro rata basis, (ii) [reserved], (iii) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower Representative and (iv) in the case of any Permitted Amendment relating to the Revolving Commitments, each Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender shall have approved such Permitted Amendment to the extent its commitment to issue Letters of Credit or make Swingline Loans, as applicable, is extended. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 5 Business Days nor more than 45 Business Days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Loan Modification Agent); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, assignments and participations of Specified Classes shall be governed by the same or, at the Borrower Representative’s discretion, more restrictive assignment and participation provisions than those set forth in Section 11.6. Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Lenders of the Specified Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans and Commitments of such Specified Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made. No Lender shall have any obligation to accept any Loan Modification Offer.

(b)            A Permitted Amendment shall be effected pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement (a “Loan Modification Agreement”) executed and delivered by the Borrower Representative and any other applicable Borrower, each applicable Accepting Lender and the Loan Modification Agent. The Loan Modification Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each Loan Modification Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Accepting Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Loan Modification Agent and the Borrower Representative, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.28, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder; provided that (x) no Loan Modification Agreement may provide for (i) any Class resulting from a Loan Modification Agreement to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Group Member that does not also secure the Loans and (ii) so long as any Loans are outstanding, any mandatory prepayment provisions that do not also apply to the Loans of the Specified Class on a pro rata basis or greater than pro rata basis (or, with respect to prepayments made with proceeds of Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt, on a pro rata basis, less than pro rata basis or greater than pro rata basis), (y) in the case of any Loan Modification Offer relating to Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, except as otherwise agreed to by each Issuing Lender, (i) the allocation of the participation exposure with respect to any then-existing or subsequently issued Letter of Credit as between the commitments of such new “Class” and the remaining Revolving Commitments shall be made on a ratable basis as between the commitments of such new “Class” and the remaining Revolving Commitments and (ii) the Revolving Termination Date may not be extended without the prior written consent of each Issuing Lender whose commitment to issue Letters of Credit is extended and (z) the terms and conditions of the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders (excluding pricing, fees, rate floors and optional prepayment or redemption terms) shall be substantially identical or (taken as a whole) shall be no more favorable to the Accepting Lenders than those applicable to the Specified Class (except for (1) financial covenants or other covenants or provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date at the time of such Loan Modification Offer, as may be agreed by the Borrower Representative and the Accepting Lenders, (2) any terms that are confirmed (or added) to the Loan Documents for the benefit of the lenders of the Specified Class pursuant to such Loan Modification Agreement and (3) pricing, premiums and fees).

140

(c)            Subject to Section 2.28(b), the Borrowers may at their election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Loan Modification Agreement that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Loan Modification Offer in the Borrowers’ sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrowers) of Loans of any or all applicable Classes be extended.

(d)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 2.28 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.17 or 11.1 to the contrary and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may amend Section 2.17 to implement any Loan Modification Agreement.

(e)            If the Loan Modification Agent is not the Administrative Agent, the actions authorized to be taken by the Loan Modification Agent herein shall be done in consultation with the Administrative Agent and, with respect to the preparation of any documentation necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this Section 2.28 (including amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), any comments to such documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent shall be reflected therein.

2.29            Currency Equivalents.

The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Amount of each Revolving Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency and L/C Obligation in respect of Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency (i) for Revolving Loans, as of the first day of each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) upon the issuance and increase of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, (iii) as of the end of each fiscal quarter of UK Holdco and (iv) from time to time in its discretion, and shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative, the Revolving Borrowers and the Revolving Lenders of each Dollar Amount so determined by it. Each such determination shall be based on the Exchange Rate on the date of the related Borrowing request for purposes of the initial such determination for any Revolving Loan.

2.30            Additional Alternative Currencies.

(a)            The Borrower Representative (on behalf of any Additional Revolving Borrower) may from time to time request that Revolving Loans be made and/or Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of “Alternative Currency”; provided that such requested currency is a lawful currency that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Euros. In the case of any such request with respect to the making of Revolving Loans, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders; and, in the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender.

(b)            Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) fifteen Business Days prior to the date of the desired Borrowing (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 relevant Issuing Lender, in its or their sole discretion). In the case of any such request pertaining to Revolving Loans, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof and in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the relevant Issuing Lender. Each such Revolving Lender (in the case of any such request pertaining to Revolving Loans) or the Issuing Lender (in the case of a request pertaining to Letters of Credit) shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), ten Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Revolving Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, in the requested currency.

141

(c)            Any failure by any Revolving Lender or any Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding paragraph (b) shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Revolving Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to permit Revolving Loans to be made or Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and all the Revolving Lenders that would be obligated to make Revolving Loans denominated in such requested currency consent to making Revolving Loans in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower Representative and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Borrowings of Revolving Loans; and if the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Lender consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower Representative and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances. The benchmark rate of interest, and any matter relating thereto, with respect to any additional “Alternative Currency” established pursuant to this Section 2.30 shall be as determined by the Administrative Agent, UK Holdco and the affected Revolving Lenders and Issuing Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain the requisite consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 2.30, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower Representative.

(d)            The Administrative Agent will have the right, in consultation with the Borrower Representative, to make ~~Sterling Daily Rate~~ Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such ~~Sterling Daily Rate~~ Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such ~~Sterling Daily Rate~~ Conforming Changes to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

SECTION 3.
LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1            L/C Commitment.

(a)            Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue standby letters of credit and, to the extent agreed to by an Issuing Lender, bank guarantees and commercial letters of credit providing for the payment of cash upon the honoring of a presentation thereunder (collectively with the Existing Letters of Credit, “Letters of Credit”) for the account of UK Holdco or the account of any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (provided that the Borrower Representative shall be an applicant, and be fully and unconditionally liable, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Restricted Subsidiary) on any Business Day prior to the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lenders; provided that no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment, (ii) the aggregate Dollar Amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero or (iii) the L/C Obligation of such Issuing Lender would exceed its L/C Sublimit. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars or one or more Alternative Currencies (any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, an “Alternative Currency Letter of Credit”); provided that Royal Bank of Canada, Barclays Bank PLC, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Senior Funding, Inc., JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and their respective affiliates shall not be required to issue Alternative Currency Letters of Credit without their consent; (ii) have a stated amount acceptable to the relevant Issuing Lender, (iii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender, the first anniversary of its date of issuance, and (y) the date that is 3 Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, provided that any Letter of Credit with the consent of the applicable Issuing Lender may provide for the renewal or extension thereof for additional one-year periods or such longer periods of time as may be agreed by the Issuing Lender (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above, except to the extent the L/C Obligations under such Letter of Credit have been Cash Collateralized); provided, further, that the Issuing Lenders shall not renew or extend any such Letter of Credit if it has received written notice (or otherwise has knowledge) that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are not satisfied prior to the date of the decision to renew or extend such Letter of Credit) and (iv) be otherwise reasonably acceptable in all respects to the Issuing Lenders. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Lenders, the Borrower Representative shall not be required to make a specific request to an Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once any Letter of Credit has been issued that may be extended automatically pursuant to the foregoing, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Lenders to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit, including to the date that is 3 Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof. Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute utilization of the Revolving Commitments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Bank USA or any other Issuing Lender be required to issue Letters of Credit other than standby letters of credit.

143

(b)            No Issuing Lender shall at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit (i) if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law or if such issuance would conflict with one or more policies of the Issuing Lender applicable to the issuance by it of letters of credit generally, (ii) if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it or (iii) as otherwise provided in Section 3.2(b) below.

(c)            Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) Letters of Credit may be issued on the Closing Date to backstop or replace letters of credit outstanding on the Closing Date or (ii) all letters of credit issued for the account of the Borrower Representative or any Restricted Subsidiary and outstanding on the Closing Date and issued by an entity that is an Issuing Lender under this Agreement, which, by its execution of this Agreement, has agreed to act as an Issuing Lender hereunder and listed on Schedule 3.1 (each, an “Existing Letter of Credit”) shall automatically be continued hereunder on the Closing Date by the applicable Issuing Lender, and as of the Closing Date the Revolving Lenders shall acquire a participation therein as if such Existing Letter of Credit were issued hereunder, and each such Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed a Letter of Credit for all purposes of this Agreement as of the Closing Date without any further action by the Borrower Representative.

144

(d)            Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, any letter of credit issued for the account of a Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary after the Closing Date pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition or other Investment, in each case that is (x) outstanding on the date of such acquisition and (y) issued by an entity that is an Issuing Lender under this Agreement shall, at the request of the Borrower Representative and with the consent of such Issuing Lender in its sole discretion, be deemed to be a “Letter of Credit” for all purposes of this Agreement as of the date of such acquisition; provided that (i) such Letter of Credit would otherwise be permitted to be issued under this Section 3 at such time (provided that such Letter of Credit may be in another currency agreed by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender, and such Letter of Credit shall be deemed an “Alternative Currency Letter of Credit” hereunder) and (ii) the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender shall have entered into an acknowledgment reasonably acceptable to each party thereto confirming that such letters of credit shall be treated as having been issued hereunder.

3.2            Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit.

(a)            The Borrower Representative may from time to time on any Business Day occurring from (or, in the case of any Letter of Credit permitted to be issued on the Closing Date, prior to) the Closing Date until the Revolving Termination Date request that an Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to the relevant Issuing Lender, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may request. Promptly upon receipt of any Application, the relevant Issuing Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of the Application, and if not, will furnish the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless such Issuing Lender has received written notice from the Administrative Agent or the Borrower Representative, at least two Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance, or one Business Day prior to the requested date of amendment, as appropriate, of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more of the conditions contained in Section 5 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall any Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit (a) earlier than (i) five Business Days, in the case of standby Letters of Credit or similar agreements or (ii) to the extent an Issuing Lender agrees to issue bank guarantees or commercial Letters of Credit, or similar agreements, such period of time as is acceptable to such Issuing Lender, or (b) later than 10 Business Days (or in each case such shorter period as may be agreed to by an Issuing Lender in any particular instance) after, its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower Representative. Each Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent promptly following the issuance thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly furnish to the Revolving Lenders notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof).

145

(b)            Cash Collateral. (i) If an Issuing Lender has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing and the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 to a Revolving Borrowing cannot then be met, (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, (iii) if any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, require the Revolving Borrowers to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 9.3 or (iv) an Event of Default set forth under Section 9.1(g) occurs and is continuing, then the Revolving Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to such Outstanding Amount determined as of the date of such L/C Borrowing or the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, as the case may be), and shall do so not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on (x) in the case of the immediately preceding clauses (i) through (iii), (1) if the Borrower Representative receives notice thereof prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), on any Business Day, on the Business Day immediately following receipt of such notice or (2) if the Borrower Representative receives notice thereof after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), on any Business Day, on the second Business Day immediately following receipt of such notice and (y) in the case of the immediately preceding clause (iv), the Business Day on which an Event of Default set forth under Section 9.1(g) 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, if any Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure remains outstanding (after giving effect to Section 2.27(a)(iv)), then promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, the Revolving Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize the Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure and deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover such Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender); provided that if any Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure is not Cash Collateralized in accordance with the foregoing to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lenders, the Issuing Lenders shall have no obligation to issue new Letters of Credit or to extend, renew or amend existing Letters of Credit to the extent Letter of Credit exposure would exceed the commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders. For purposes hereof, “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the relevant Issuing Lender and the Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, Cash Collateral pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Lender (which documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Revolving Borrowers hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in a Cash Collateral Account and may be invested in readily available Cash Equivalents. If at any time the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (or in the case of Cash Collateral provided with regard to Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure, such amount of Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure), the Revolving Borrowers will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in a Cash Collateral Account as aforesaid, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (b) the total amount of funds, 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 Issuing Lender. To the extent the amount of any Cash Collateral exceeds the then Outstanding Amount of such L/C Obligations and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the excess shall be refunded to the Revolving Borrowers.

3.3            Fees and Other Charges.

(a)            The Revolving Borrowers will pay a fee on the actual aggregate daily undrawn and unexpired amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit (as described in Section 3.9 hereof) at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to ~~Eurocurrency~~Term SOFR Loans under the Revolving Facility, less the amount of fronting fee referred to in the next sentence, shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each applicable Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In addition, the Revolving Borrowers shall pay to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee which shall be the greater of $500 per annum (solely to the extent invoiced and to the extent Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender are outstanding in the applicable period) and 0.125% per annum (or such lower fee as applicable Issuing Lender may agree) on the actual aggregate daily undrawn and unexpired amount of all such Issuing Lender’s Letters of Credit amounts (as described in Section 3.9 hereof) outstanding during the applicable period, payable quarterly in arrears on each applicable Fee Payment Date after the issuance date.

146

(b)            In addition to the foregoing fees, the Revolving Borrowers shall pay or reimburse such Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. Such costs and expenses shall be due and payable on demand and nonrefundable.

3.4            L/C Participations.

(a)            The Issuing Lenders irrevocably agree to grant and hereby grant to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lenders, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in the Issuing Lenders’ obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by an Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant agrees with the Issuing Lenders that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which an Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Revolving Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender upon demand at such Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such L/C Participant may have against any Issuing Lender, the Revolving Borrowers, any other Group Member or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower Representative and the Restricted Subsidiaries, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(b)            If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to an Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to such Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily Overnight Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lenders, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to an Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility. A certificate of an Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(c)            Whenever, at any time after an Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), an Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower Representative or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.

147

3.5            Reimbursement Obligation of the Revolving Borrowers. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent thereof. If any drawing is paid under any Letter of Credit, the Revolving Borrowers shall reimburse the Issuing Lenders for the amount of (a) the drawing so paid and (b) any fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such payment, not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on (x) if such notice of drawing is received (i) in the case of any drawing in any Alternative Currency, prior to 11:00 a.m. (London time) or (ii) in the case of any drawing in Dollars, prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time), in each case, on the first Business Day following the date such drawing is paid by the Issuing Lenders and (y) otherwise, the second Business Day following the date such drawing is paid by the Issuing Lenders (the “Honor Date”). Each such payment shall be made to an Issuing Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in the currency in which the applicable Letter of Credit is denominated and in immediately available funds. If the Revolving Borrowers fail to reimburse an Issuing Lender on the Honor Date, interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the date on which the relevant drawing is paid until payment in full at the rate set forth in (x) until the second Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice, Section 2.14(b) and (y) thereafter, Section 2.14(d).

3.6            Obligations Absolute. The Revolving Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrowers may have or have had against the Issuing Lenders, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person (it being understood that this provision shall not preclude the ability of the Borrowers to bring any claim for damages against any such Person who has acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Borrowers also agree with the Issuing Lenders that the Issuing Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Revolving Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Revolving Borrowers and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Revolving Borrowers against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. The Issuing Lenders shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lenders. The Revolving Borrowers agree that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lenders under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction), shall be binding on the Revolving Borrowers and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lenders to the Revolving Borrowers.

3.7            Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of the applicable Issuing Lender to the Borrower Representative in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

6.12            Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries. The Borrower Representative may at any time after the Closing Date designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and subsequently re-designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary, if other than for purposes of designating a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary that is a Receivables Subsidiary in connection with the establishment of a Qualified Receivables Financing (i) the Interest Coverage Ratio of UK Holdco and the Restricted Subsidiaries for the most recently ended Reference Period preceding such designation or re-designation, as applicable, would have been, on a Pro Forma Basis, at least the lesser of (x) 2.00 to 1.00 and (y) the Interest Coverage Ratio as of the most recently ended Reference Period and (ii) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom. The designation of any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Closing Date shall constitute an Investment by the applicable Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the applicable Loan Party’s or Restricted Subsidiary’s investment therein; provided that if any subsidiary (a “Subject Subsidiary”) being designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary has a subsidiary that was previously designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (the “Previously Designated Unrestricted Subsidiary”) in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Investment of such Subject Subsidiary in such Previously Designated Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not be taken into account, and shall be excluded, in determining whether the Subject Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary hereunder. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute (x) the incurrence at the time of designation of Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time, and (y) a return on any Investment by the applicable Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary in Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value at the date of such designation of such Loan Party’s or Restricted Subsidiary’s Investment in such Subsidiary. For the avoidance of doubt, neither a Borrower nor UK Holdco shall be permitted to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary. At any time a Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary hereunder, the Borrower Representative shall cause such Subsidiary to be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (or any similar applicable term) under the Senior Secured Notes.

6.13            Employee Benefit Plans. (i) Maintain, and cause each Commonly Controlled Entity to maintain, all Plans that are presently in existence or may, from time to time, come into existence, in compliance with the terms of any such Plan, ERISA, the Code and all other applicable laws, except to the extent the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; and (ii) maintain, or cause to be maintained, all Foreign Plans that are presently in existence or may, from time to time, come into existence, in compliance with the terms of any such Foreign Plan and all applicable laws, except to the extent the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

6.14            Use of Proceeds. The Borrowers will only use the proceeds of the Loans in accordance with Sections 4.17(d) and 4.19.

SECTION 8.
GUARANTEE

8.1            The Guarantee. (a) [Reserved].

(b)            Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not as a surety, to each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of (1) the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law of any other jurisdiction) on (i) the Loans made by the Lenders to, including the Loans represented by the Notes held by each Lender of, any Borrower, (ii) the Incremental Loans made by the Incremental Term Lenders or Incremental Revolving Lenders to any Borrower, (iii) the Other Term Loans and Other Revolving Loans made by any lender thereof, and (iv) the Notes held by each Lender of any Borrower and (2) all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by any Loan Party or, in the case of Specified Cash Management Agreements and Specified Swap Agreements, any Restricted Subsidiary (such obligations under clauses (1) and (2) being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations” and the “Guarantor Obligations”). Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally agrees that, if any Borrower, Loan Party or, in the case of Specified Cash Management Agreements and Specified Swap Agreements, Restricted Subsidiary shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, such Guarantor will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

8.2            Obligations Unconditional.

(a)            The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 8.1 shall constitute a guaranty of payment (and not of collection) and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, in each case, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety by any Guarantor (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall, in each case, remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

191

(i)            at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guarantor Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii)            any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(iii)            the maturity of any of the Guarantor Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guarantor Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guarantor Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(iv)            any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Issuing Lenders or any Lender or the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent as security for any of the Guarantor Obligations shall fail to be valid or perfected or entitled to the expected priority;

(v)            the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 8.9, 10.10 or otherwise; or

(vi)            except for the payment in full of the Guarantor Obligations, any other circumstance whatsoever which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guarantor Obligations or which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Borrower or any Guarantor for the Guarantor Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the Guarantee or of any security interest granted by any Guarantor, whether in a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or in any other instance.

(b)            Each of the Guarantors hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, marshaling, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Borrower under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guarantor Obligations. Each of the Guarantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guarantor Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon the guarantee made under this Section 8 (this “Guarantee”) or acceptance of the Guarantee, and the Guarantor Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon the Guarantee, and all dealings between the Borrowers and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the Guarantee. The Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guarantor Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against any Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guarantor Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. The Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the applicable Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guarantor Obligations outstanding.

192

8.3            Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 8 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party in respect of the Guarantor Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guarantor Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

8.4            No Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guarantor Obligations (other than contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made) and the expiration and termination of the Commitments under this Agreement, it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its Guarantee, whether by subrogation, right of contribution or otherwise, against any Borrower or any other Guarantor of any of the Guarantor Obligations or any security for any of the Guarantor Obligations.

8.5            Remedies. Each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of each Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 9 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 9) for purposes of Section 8.1, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any Borrower or any Guarantor and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable, or the circumstances occurring where Section 9 provides that such obligations shall become due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by any Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 8.1.

8.6            Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the Guarantee constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

8.7            Continuing Guarantee. The Guarantee made by the Guarantors is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

8.8            General Limitation on Guarantor Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any federal, state, provincial or territorial, corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 8.1 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 8.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability of such Guarantor shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 8.10) that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. To effectuate the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Guarantor Obligations of each Guarantor in respect of the Guarantee at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Guarantor Obligations of such Guarantor with respect thereto not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance after giving full effect to the liability under such Guarantee and its related contribution rights but before taking into account any liabilities under any other guarantee by such Guarantor. For purposes of the foregoing, all guarantees of such Guarantor other than its Guarantee will be deemed to be enforceable and payable after the Guarantee. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, this Section 8.8 shall be for the benefit solely of creditors and representatives of creditors of each Guarantor and not for the benefit of such Guarantor or the holders of any Equity Interest in such Guarantor.

193

8.9            Release of Subsidiary Guarantors. A Subsidiary Guarantor or a Borrower shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor or Borrower shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of to a Person other than a Loan Party in a transaction permitted by this Agreement. In connection with any such release of a Guarantor or Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to the Borrower Representative, at the Borrower Representative’s expense, all UCC termination statements and other documents that the Borrower Representative shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

8.10            Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 8.4. The provisions of this Section 8.10 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Excluded ECP Guarantor shall have any obligations or liabilities to any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party with respect to Excluded Swap Obligations.

8.11            Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under the Guarantee in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 8.11 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 8.11, or otherwise under the Guarantee, as it relates to such Loan Party, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 8.11 shall remain in full force and effect until the termination and release of all Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 8.11 constitute, and this Section 8.11 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

8.12            Limitations.

(a)            Limitations in Luxembourg.

(i)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the aggregate obligations of a Luxembourg Guarantor in respect of the obligations of a Group Member which is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of such Luxembourg Guarantor shall be limited at any time to an aggregate amount not exceeding 90% of the greater of:

194

(1)            an amount equal to the sum of the Luxembourg Guarantor’s Net Assets (Capitaux Propres), as referred to in annex I to the grand-ducal regulation dated 18 December 2015 defining the form and content of the presentation of balance sheet and profit and loss account, and enforcing the Luxembourg law dated 19 December 2002 on the register of commerce and companies, accounting and companies annual accounts, as amended (the “Regulation”) and its subordinated debt (dettes subordonnées), as reflected in the financial information of the Luxembourg Guarantor available to the Secured Parties as at the Closing Date or (as applicable) as at the date of its accession as a Guarantor, including, without limitation, its most recently and duly approved financial statements (comptes annuels) and any (unaudited) interim financial statements signed by its board of directors (administrateurs); and

(2)            an amount equal to the sum of the Luxembourg Guarantor’s Net Assets (Capitaux Propres), as referred to in the Regulation, and its subordinated debt (dettes subordonnées), as reflected in the financial information of the Luxembourg Guarantor available to the Secured Parties as at the date the Guarantee is called, including, without limitation, its most recently and duly approved financial statements (comptes annuels) and any (unaudited) interim financial statements signed by its board of directors (administrateurs).

(ii)            The limitation set forth at paragraph (i) above shall not apply to any amounts borrowed under this Agreement and made available, in any form whatsoever, to such Luxembourg Guarantor or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries.

(iii)            The Luxembourg Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 8 will not extend to include any obligations or liabilities if such inclusion would constitute a breach of the financial assistance prohibitions contained at Article 430-19 (where applicable) of the Luxembourg law on commercial companies of 10 August 1915, as amended.

(b)            Limitations in the United Kingdom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Documents, this Guarantee does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in such Guarantee constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of sections 678 or 679 of the United Kingdom Companies Xxx 0000.

(c)            Limitations in Spain. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the aggregate obligations of a Spanish Guarantor will not extend to any liability to the extent that it would result in such guarantee constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Sections 143.2 and 150 of the Spanish Companies’ Act (Ley de Sociedades de Capital). This Guarantee is independent and separate from the obligations of the Borrowers or other Guarantors and, consequently, the guarantee granted by any Spanish Loan Party under this Agreement will in no event be construed or configured as a Spanish “fianza” for the purposes of article 1,822 seq of the Spanish Civil Code. The obligations of each Spanish Loan Party under this Clause 8 will not be affected by any action made under the Additional Section 4 (Disposición Adicional Cuarta) of the Spanish Insolvency Law, 22/2003 (Ley Concursal) in relation to any other Spanish Loan Party. For the purposes of article 135 of the Spanish Insolvency Law, the obligations of a Guarantor that is a Spanish Loan Party under this Agreement vis-á-vis each Lender shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement at any time such that each Spanish Loan Party’s obligations pursuant to this Section 8 shall not be affected in any way by the settlement agreement that may be agreed in the insolvency proceedings of any other Spanish Loan Party (nor shall they be deemed amended as a consequence of the approval of that settlement agreement) that each of the Lenders has approved or acceded to or irrespective of the fact that any such Lender has not approved or acceded to, that settlement agreement.

195

(d)            Limitations in Germany.

(i)            The Secured Parties agree not to enforce the Guarantee granted under this Section 8 (Guarantee) against a Guarantor incorporated in Germany as a limited liability company (GmbH) (a “German GmbH Guarantor”), or as a limited partnership (Kommanditgesellschaft) with a limited liability company as sole general partner (GmbH & Co. KG) (the “German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor”, together with any German GmbH Guarantor hereinafter referred to as a “German Guarantor”) to the extent that this Guarantee secures liabilities of an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) within the meaning of Section 15 et seq. of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG Aktiengesetz) of that German Guarantor (other than the German Guarantor’s (direct or indirect) Subsidiaries) (the “Guaranteed Loan Party”) if and to the extent that a payment under the Guarantee would cause that German Guarantor’s, or, in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner’s, net assets (to be calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany consistently applied by the German Guarantor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluss according to § 42 GmbH-Act, §§ 242, 264 of the German Commercial Code (HGB Handelsgesetzbuch)) being the German Guarantors’ or, in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner’s, assets less the sum of (i) the German Guarantor’s liabilities (to be calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany consistently applied by the German Guarantor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluss according to § 42 GmbH-Act, §§ 242, 264 of the German Commercial Code), (disregarding, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) any provision in respect of the guarantee created under this Agreement, and (y) any provision in respect of or liabilities of the German Guarantor under any Guarantee of senior unsecured indebtedness or Indebtedness subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations which Guarantee contains a limitation as to maximum amount similar to that set forth in this paragraph, pursuant to which the liability of such Guarantor hereunder is included in the liabilities taken into account in determining such maximum amount), (ii) the amounts of profits (Gewinne) not available for distribution to its shareholders and (iii) the stated share capital (Stammkapital) of the German Guarantor or, in the case of a German Guarantor in the legal form of GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner (the “Net Assets”), (as adjusted in accordance with sub-paragraph (ii) below) to be reduced below zero, or further reduced if already below zero.

(ii)            For the purposes of the calculation of the Net Assets the following balance sheet items shall be adjusted as follows:

(1)            the amount of any increase of the stated share capital (Stammkapital) of the German Guarantor, or, in case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner, after the Closing Date (A) that has been effected without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent out of retained earnings (Kapitalerhöhung aus Gesellschaftsmitteln) or (B) to the extent that it is not fully paid up, shall be deducted from the stated share capital;

(2)            loans and contractual liabilities incurred in violation of the provisions of the Loan Documents shall be disregarded; and

(3)            any liabilities of the German Guarantor in respect of intercompany indebtedness owed to any other Loan Party to the extent that such intercompany indebtedness may be permanently discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such German Guarantor hereunder by way of set-off, contribution, waiver or otherwise (and the relevant Loan Parties are actually permitted to do so under the Loan Documents and applicable law at the relevant time).

196

(iii)            In addition, each German Guarantor, and, in case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner, shall, for the purposes of determining the Net Assets, upon the request of the Collateral Agent realize, to the extent legally permitted and commercially justifiable with respect to the cost and efforts involved, in a situation where such German Guarantor, and, in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner, does not have sufficient Net Assets to maintain its stated share capital, any and all of its assets that are shown in the balance sheet of the German Guarantor, or, in case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner, with a book value (Buchwert) that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets if the asset is not necessary for such German Guarantor’s, and, in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner’s, business, (betriebsnotwendig) (the “Realizable Assets”).

(iv)            No Secured Party shall enforce this Agreement against the relevant German Guarantor before the Net Assets (as determined in accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 8.12(d)), i.e., the amounts which may be claimed against a relevant German Guarantor, or, in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner, have been determined in accordance with the following further procedure:

(1)            following a notification by the Collateral Agent to the relevant German Guarantor of the Secured Parties’ intention to enforce this Guarantee such German Guarantor shall notify the Collateral Agent in writing within twenty (20) Business Days of such notification of the Net Assets (the “Management Determination”). If the Collateral Agent disagrees with this Management Determination such German Guarantor, acting reasonably, shall engage at its expense a firm of auditors of international standard and repute which shall proceed to audit the relevant German Guarantor with a view to investigating such German Guarantor’s Net Assets (the “Auditors’ Determination”) within thirty (30) Business Days (or such longer period as has been agreed between the German Guarantor and the Collateral Agent) from the date the Collateral Agent has contested the Management Determination and the German Guarantor shall give notice of such engagement to the Collateral Agent. Each relevant German Guarantor shall render any and all reasonable assistance requested by the auditors for the purposes of facilitating the Auditors’ Determination and shall allow full access to and inspection of its books and any other necessary documents.

(2)            The Auditors’ Determination of the Net Assets shall take into account, in addition to the terms set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 8.12(d), the generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany and be based on the same principles that were applied when establishing the previous year’s balance sheet.

(3)            The Secured Parties may proceed to enforce this Guarantee granted by the relevant German Guarantor, if and to the extent that (i) the German Guarantor has not provided the Management Determination within the twenty (20) Business Days period or (ii) an Auditors’ Determination cannot has not been obtained within the thirty (30) Business Days following notice by the Collateral Agent to the relevant German Guarantor that it disagrees with its Management Determination. The maximum amount that may be claimed against such relevant German Guarantor in those circumstances will be the amount determined by the Collateral Agent in good faith acting reasonably by reference to the most recent financial statements delivered in respect of the relevant German Guarantor under this Agreement and, based on such determination by the Collateral Agent, the payment of which would not result in such German Guarantor, or, in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, its general partner, having insufficient assets to maintain its stated share capital. For the purpose of calculating such amount, the adjustments referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 8.12(d) will be made to the most recent financial statements delivered as aforesaid.

197

(v)            If the amount payable under the relevant Guarantee was determined in accordance with Section 8.12(d)(iv)(3), because an Auditors’ Determination or Management Determination could not be obtained as outlined in Section 8.12(d)(iv)(1), and, in such case, an Auditors’ Determination delivered by the relevant German Guarantor to the Collateral Agent within sixty (60) Business Days after the respective auditor should have been engaged in accordance with Section 8.12(d)(iv)(1) confirms that the amount available under the relevant Guarantee granted hereunder at the time of enforcement was less than the amount recovered by the Collateral Agent, the Secured Parties agree to release to the relevant German Guarantor an amount of the proceeds equal to the amount by which the recoveries relating to the relevant Guarantee exceeded the amount determined to be available.

(vi)            The limitations set out in clause (i) of this Section 8.12(d) shall not apply:

(1)            to any amounts due and payable under any Loan Document which relate to funds which have been drawn under the Loans and on-lent to the relevant German Guarantor or to any of its (direct or indirect) Subsidiaries and such amounts on-lent have not been repaid prior to a demand for payment being made under this Guarantee and are still outstanding ;

(2)            if the German Guarantor is subject to a domination and/or profit transfer agreement (Beherrschungs- und/oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) (a “DPTA”) (as dominated entity) with the Guaranteed Loan Party, whether directly or indirectly through a chain of DPTAs between each company and its shareholder (or in case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor between its general partner and its shareholder), if and to the extent that the existence of a DPTA leads to the inapplicability of Section 30 para. 1 sentence 1 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act;

(3)            if and to the extent that the relevant German Guarantor holds on the date of enforcement of the Guarantee a fully recoverable indemnity claim or claim for refund (“vollwertiger Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch”) against the Guaranteed Loan Party; or

(4)            if and to the extent it is not required in order to avoid any personal liability of the managing directors of the German Guarantors (or, in case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, of its general partner) as a result of a breach of section 30 GmbHG.

(vii)            None of the reduction of the amount enforceable under this Agreement in accordance with the above limitations set out in this Section 8.12(d) will prejudice the rights of the Secured Parties to continue enforcing this Guarantee (subject always to the operation of the limitations set forth above at the time of such enforcement) until full satisfaction of the Guarantor Obligations of the German Guarantor.

(e)            Each Guarantor that as of the Closing Date or thereafter is incorporated, organized or formed, as the case may be, under the laws of any jurisdiction other than those jurisdictions set forth in clauses (a) through (d) above (an “Other Guarantor”), and by its acceptance hereof, each Lender and the Administrative Agent, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of an Other Guarantor (i) does not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of, or otherwise violate, applicable Law and (ii) shall be subject to the Agreed Security Principles. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Lender and each Other Guarantor hereby irrevocably agrees that the obligations of an Other Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Other Guarantor result in the obligations of such Other Guarantor not constituting such a fraudulent transfer or conveyance or otherwise violating applicable Law and be subject to such other limitations in accordance with the Agreement Security Principles or under applicable Law and as are described in such Other Guarantor’s Guarantor Joinder Agreement and/or Borrower Joinder.

198

(f)            Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.12 to the contrary, if following the Closing Date:

(i)            there shall be any change in the Laws of any of the jurisdictions set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 8.12;

(ii)            there shall be any change in the Laws under which any Other Guarantor is incorporated, organized or formed, as the case may be; or

(iii)            any Person shall be required to execute a Guarantee pursuant to Section 6.9 and such Person is incorporated, organized or formed, as the case may be, under the laws of any jurisdiction other than those in which entities are contemplated to become Guarantors as of the Closing Date, including those jurisdictions addressed in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 8.12 and other than any jurisdiction in which a then existing Other Guarantor is incorporated, organized or formed, as the case may be (a “Future Guarantor”), and the Borrower Representative shall reasonably determine that the provisions of Section 8.12 hereof with respect to any Other Guarantor shall not adequately address the limitations on such Guarantee as set forth in the Agreed Security Principles or imposed by applicable Law of the jurisdiction of incorporation, organization or formation, as the case may be, of such Future Guarantor,

then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative shall be permitted to amend such clause or add such additional provisions to such clause, as the case may be, to the extent necessary so that the Guarantee of a Guarantor is subject to the limitations set forth in the Agreed Security Principles or does not violate applicable Law.

(g)            With respect to any Guarantor, this Guarantee is subject to any limitations set out in any Guarantor Joinder Agreement and/or Borrower Joinder applicable to such Guarantor.

199

(c)            any Loan Party shall default in the observance or performance of any agreement contained in Section 6.4(a)(i) (in respect of Holdings and UK Holdco), Section 6.7(a) (provided that (x) the delivery of a notice of Default or Event of Default at any time or (y) the curing of the underlying Default or Event of Default with respect to which notice is required to be given will, in each case, cure an Event of Default arising from the failure to timely deliver such notice of Default or Event of Default, as applicable, in each case unless a Responsible Officer of a Loan Party had actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or any Loan Party knowingly fails to give timely notice of any such Default or Event of Default) or Section 7 of this Agreement (other than Section 7.1); or

(m)            any Loan Party repudiates or rescind this Agreement or the Loan Documents or evidences an intention to repudiate or rescind this Agreement or the Loan Documents in a manner which is materially adverse to the interests of the Lenders as a whole and, where capable of remedy, the circumstance are not remedied within 10 days of the earlier of (a) becoming aware of a failure to comply and (b) receiving a written notice of the Administrative Agent notifying it of that failure.

9.2            [Reserved].

9.3            Action in Event of Default.

(a)            (x) Upon any Event of Default specified in Section 9.1(g)(i) or (ii) occurring and continuing with respect to any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or any other liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, composition, compromise or assignment for the benefit of creditors, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership or administration, insolvency, reorganization, or similar debtor relief law of the United States from time to time in effect and affecting the rights of creditors generally, the Commitments to lend to such Borrower shall immediately terminate automatically and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other Obligations owing by such Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall automatically immediately become due and payable (provided that the occurrence of such event in relation to such Borrower shall not, except to the extent provided in this clause (x), result in any Loan being accelerated without a notice having been given pursuant to clause (y) below to the Borrowers (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other Loan Party)), and (y) if any other Event of Default (other than under Section 9.1(g)(i) or (ii) in respect of a Borrower as set out in clause (x) above) occurs and is continuing, subject to Section 9.3(b) and (c), either or both of the following actions may be taken: (i) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrowers declare the Revolving Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Revolving Commitments shall immediately terminate; and/or (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrowers, declare the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other Obligations owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders the Administrative Agent shall, exercise any and all other remedies available under the Loan Documents at law or in equity, including commencing and prosecuting any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction and collecting the Collateral or any portion thereof and enforcing any other right in respect of any Collateral.

202

(b)            Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 9.1(d) (a “Financial Covenant Event of Default”) that is uncured or unwaived, the Majority Revolving Lenders may, so long as a Financial Compliance Date continues to be in effect, either (x) terminate the Revolving Commitments and/or (y) take the actions specified in Section 9.3(a) and (c) in respect of the Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit and any Swingline Loans.

(c)            In respect of a Financial Covenant Event of Default that is continuing, the Required Lenders may take the actions specified in Section 9.3(a) on the date that the Majority Revolving Lenders terminate the Revolving Commitments and accelerate all Obligations in respect of the Revolving Commitments; provided, however, that the Required Lenders may not take such actions if either (i) the Revolving Loans have been repaid in full (other than contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made) and the Revolving Commitments have been terminated or (ii) the Financial Covenant Event of Default has been waived by the Majority Revolving Lenders.

(d)            With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall at such time deposit in a Cash Collateral Account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit. Amounts held in such Cash Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other Obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon and all amounts drawn thereunder have been reimbursed in full and all other Obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made), the balance, if any, in such Cash Collateral Account shall be returned to the Borrowers (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided above in this Section 9.3, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.

9.4            Right to Cure.

(a)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 9, in the event that UK Holdco fails (or, but for the operation of this Section 9.4, would fail) to comply with the requirements of Section 7.1, Holdings shall have the right from the date of delivery of a Notice of Intent to Cure with respect to the fiscal quarter most recently ended for which financial results have been provided under Sections 6.1(a) or (b) until 10 Business Days thereafter (the “Cure Period”), to issue Permitted Cure Securities for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions to the equity capital of Holdings, and, in each case, to contribute any such cash to the equity capital of UK Holdco (collectively, the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by UK Holdco of such cash (the “Cure Amount”) pursuant to the exercise by Holdings of such Cure Right, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio shall be recalculated by increasing Consolidated EBITDA (solely for purposes of compliance with Section 7.1 and determining whether an Event of Default is continuing for purposes of clause (y) of the definition of Applicable Margin) on a Pro Forma Basis solely for the purpose of measuring the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount.

203

(b)            If, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, UK Holdco shall then be in compliance with the requirements of Section 7.1, then UK Holdco shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of Section 7.1 as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of Section 7.1 that had occurred shall be deemed not to have occurred for the purposes of this Agreement.

(c)            To the extent a fiscal quarter ended for which the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio was initially recalculated as a result of a Cure Right and such fiscal quarter is included in the calculation of the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio in a subsequent fiscal quarter, the Cure Amount shall be included in Consolidated EBITDA of such initial fiscal quarter.

(d)            Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four-fiscal-quarter period there shall be at least two fiscal quarters in which the Cure Right is not exercised, (ii) for purposes of this Section 9.4, the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required for purposes of complying with the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, determined at the time the Cure Right is exercised with respect to the fiscal quarter ended for which the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio was initially recalculated as a result of a Cure Right, (iii) the Cure Amount shall be disregarded for all other purposes of this Agreement, including, determining any baskets with respect to the covenants contained in Section 7, and shall not result in any adjustment to any amounts other than the amount of Consolidated EBITDA as described in clause (a) above, (iv) there shall be no pro forma reduction in Indebtedness with the proceeds of any Cure Amount for the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the fiscal quarter in which the Cure Right is exercised for purposes of determining compliance with Section 7.1 except to the extent the Cure Amount is actually applied to repay Indebtedness and (v) Holdings shall not exercise the Cure Right in excess of five instances over the term of this Agreement.

9.5            Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may apply, at such time or times as the Administrative Agent may elect, all or any part of proceeds constituting Collateral in payment of the Obligations (and in the event the Loans and other Obligations are accelerated pursuant to Section 9.3, the Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, apply the proceeds constituting Collateral in payment of the Obligations) in the following order:

(a)            First, to the payment of all costs and expenses of any sale, collection or other realization on the Collateral, including reimbursement for all costs, expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith (including all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection any action taken pursuant to any Loan Document or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and any other amount required by any provision of law (including Section 9-615(a)(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code) (or any equivalent law in any foreign jurisdiction)), and all amounts for which Administrative Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and all advances made by the Administrative Agent hereunder and thereunder for the account of any Loan Party (excluding principal and interest in respect of any Loans extended to such Loan Party), and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and to the payment or reimbursement of all indemnification obligations, fees, costs and expenses owing to the Administrative Agent hereunder or under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof;

204

(b)            Second, for application by it pro rata to (i) repay the Swingline Lender for any then outstanding Swingline Loans to the extent Revolving Lenders have not funded their obligations to acquire participations therein, (ii) cure any Funding Default that has occurred and is continuing at such time and (iii) repay the Issuing Lenders for any amounts not paid by L/C Participants pursuant to Section 3.4;

(c)            Third, for application by it towards all other Obligations (including, without duplication, Guarantor Obligations), pro rata among the Secured Parties according to the amounts of the Obligations then held by the Secured Parties (including all Obligations arising under Specified Cash Management Agreements, Specified Swap Agreements and including obligations to provide cash collateral with respect to Letters of Credit); and

(d)            Fourth, any balance of such Proceeds remaining after all of the Obligations shall have been satisfied by payment in full in immediately available funds (or in the case of Letters of Credit, terminated or Collateralized) and the Commitments shall have been terminated, be paid over to or upon the order of the applicable Loan Party or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

9.6            Clean-Up Period.

(a)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, during the Clean-Up Period, the occurrence of any breach of a representation, covenant or an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default set out in Section 9.1(a)) will be deemed not to be a breach of a representation or warranty or a breach of a covenant or an Event of Default, as the case may be, if it would have been (if it were not for this provision) a breach of representation or warranty or a breach of a covenant or an Event of Default only by reason of circumstances relating exclusively to, with respect to any Permitted Acquisition or other Permitted Clean-Up Investment (or the subsidiaries of such target), the target of such Permitted Acquisition or Permitted Clean-Up Investment, and provided that such breach or Event of Default:

(i)            is capable of being remedied within the Clean-Up Period and the Loan Parties are taking appropriate steps to remedy such breach or Event of Default;

(ii)            does not have and is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; and

(iii)            was not procured by or approved by Holdings or the Borrowers.

(b)            Notwithstanding Section 9.6(a), if the relevant circumstances are continuing on or after the expiry of the Clean-Up Period, there shall be a breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant or Event of Default, as the case may be, notwithstanding the above (and without prejudice to the rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders).

(c)            For the avoidance of doubt, if any breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant or Event of Default shall be deemed to not exist due to Section 9.6(a) during the Clean-Up Period, then such breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant or Event of Default shall be deemed not to exist for purposes of Section 5.2 for so long as (but in no event later than the end of the Clean-Up Period) such breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant or Event of Default shall be deemed not to exist due to the provisions of Section 9.6(a).

205

SECTION 10.
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

10.1            Appointment and Authority.

(a)            Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America, N.A. to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 10 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Joint Bookrunners, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Incremental Facility Arrangers, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, and, except to the extent that any Group Member has any express rights under this Section 10, no Group Member shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. Each Joint Lead Arranger, Joint Bookrunner and Incremental Facility Arranger shall be an intended third party beneficiary of the provisions set forth in this Agreement that are applicable thereto. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative 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 as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

(b)            Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Qualified Counterparty and a potential Cash Management Provider) and the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and the Issuing Lenders (with the full power to appoint and to substitute and to delegate) on its behalf, or in its own name as joint and several creditor or creditor of a parallel debt (as the case may be) 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 Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.5 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security 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 Section 10 and Section 11, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” 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 on its behalf and/or in its own name (including under any parallel debt) to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy with respect to any Collateral against any Borrower or any other Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or any Specified Cash Management Agreement (including, in each case, the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral of any Borrower or any other Loan Party, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. In the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or a sale of any of the Collateral pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (or an equivalent process in any foreign jurisdiction), the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, with the consent or at the direction of 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, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale.

206

(c)            German Collateral. In relation to any Collateral created under Security Documents governed by German law (the “German Collateral”) the appointment pursuant to paragraph (b) above includes the appointment as trustee (Treuhänder) under German law and administrator for the purpose of accepting and administering the German Collateral for the benefit and account of the other Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The Administrative Agent shall, with respect to any security interest created under any Collateral Documents, or any other Collateral, which in each case is subject to German law, hold, administer and, as the case may be, release and (subject to it having become enforceable) realize in its own name as trustee (treuhänderisch) for the benefit and account of the Secured Parties, and not as trustee on behalf of any other party.

(d)            Spanish Collateral. In relation to any Collateral created under Security Documents governed by Spanish law, each of the Lenders hereby undertake, upon request by the Administrative Agent, to grant a power of attorney in its favor to exercise the powers contained in this Section 10.1, which shall be notarized and legalized by affixing an apostille pursuant to The Hague Convention of 1961.

10.2            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, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, UK Holdco, the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

10.3            Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent or the Joint Lead Arrangers or the Incremental Arrangers, as applicable, shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and the Administrative Agent’s duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent or the Joint Lead Arrangers or the Incremental Arrangers, as applicable:

(a)            shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a 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 expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may 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;

207

(c)            shall not have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of or otherwise relating to any of the Loan Parties or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by or in possession of the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Incremental Arrangers or any of their Related Parties in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein;

(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 Section 11.1 and Section 9.3) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable 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 a Borrower, a Lender or the applicable Issuing Lender;

(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 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 Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent;

(f)            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 or Affiliated 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, (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 or (z) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or enforce any limitations in connection with any assignment to Debt Fund Affiliates and Affiliated Lenders or have any liability with respect thereto or any matter arising thereof;

(g)            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 Administrative or the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any Issuing Lender for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

208

10.4            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 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 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 the applicable Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

10.5            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 Section 10 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 nonappealable decision that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

10.6            Resignation and Removal of Administrative Agent.

(a)            The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the approval of the Borrower Representative, not to be unreasonably withheld, for so long as no Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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 retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, in consultation with the Borrower Representative, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

209

(b)            If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (e) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrowers and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, subject to the approval of the Borrower Representative, not to be unreasonably withheld, for so long as no Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c)            With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed 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 or the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, 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 Issuing Lenders directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. 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 removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 2.19(f) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed 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). 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 or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 10 and Section 11.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed 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 (i) while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including (a) acting as collateral agent or otherwise holding any collateral security on behalf of any of the Lenders and (b) in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

(d)            Any resignation by Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 10.6 shall also constitute its resignation as Swingline Lender. If Bank of America, N.A. resigns as a Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of a Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation. Upon the appointment by the Borrower Representative of a successor Swingline Lender hereunder (which successor shall in all cases by a Lender other than Defaulting Lender), (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swingline Lender and (b) the retiring Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

(a)            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 any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

211

(i)            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 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 Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.8, 3.3 and 11.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Lender 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 applicable Issuing Lender, 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 2.8 and 11.5.

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

The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar Laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable Law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid, (ii) to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 11.1 of this Agreement), (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to assign the relevant Obligations to any such acquisition vehicle pro rata by the Lenders, as a result of which each of the Lenders shall be deemed to have received a pro rata portion of any Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by such an acquisition vehicle on account of the assignment of the Obligations to be credit bid, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (iv) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders pro rata and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Obligations that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action.

212

(b)            As regards any judicial proceeding relating to any Spanish Loan Party and for the purposes of Article 572 of the Spanish Civil procedural Law, the Parties expressly agree that:

(i)            a statement as to any amount due to any Lender under this Agreement which is certified as being correct by the Administrative Agent or, failing which, by the relevant Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error or unless otherwise provided under this Agreement be prima facie evidence of the amount so due and that such amount is in fact true, net, due and payable.

(ii)            the balance of the specific ledgers in relation to the Loan Documents, opened and held by the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender in the relevant Spanish Loan Party's name, in accordance with the terms of the Spanish Civil Procedure Law 1/2000, in which ledgers all amounts owed by the Spanish Loan Party shall be debited and all amounts paid by the Spanish Loan Party shall be credited, shall be considered by the parties hereof as determining the amount of debt of the Spanish Loan Party outstanding at the time enforcement action is taken;

(iii)            the Administrative Agent, failing which, the relevant Lender shall execute a notorial document (in Spanish: acta notarial) evidencing that the calculation of the debt owed by the Spanish Loan Party (in Spanish: liquidación) made has been done according to the procedure set forth in this Agreement by the Parties;

(iv)            prior to commencing enforcement actions in connection with this Agreement or any Loan Document affecting a Spanish Loan Party, to the extent permitted by law, the Administrative Agent, failing which, the relevant Lender, shall deliver a copy of the relevant statement referred to in (iii) above to the relevant Spanish Loan Party through judicial or notarial means, which shall express the total amount due; and

(v)            if an Event of Default is continuing each Spanish Loan Party will, at the request of the Administrative Agent, enter into one or more notarial deeds (escritura pública) in the form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and take all other actions required by the Administrative Agent to ensure that the obligations of any Spanish Loan Party under any guarantee entered by it are raised to the status of a Spanish notarial deed.

The Spanish Loan Parties expressly authorise the Administrative Agent to request and obtain certificates and documents issued by the notary that raised this Agreement to a notarial status (or his/her successor(s)) in order to evidence compliance of the Agreement with the entries of her/his registry-book and the relevant entry date for the purpose of number 4 of Article 517.2, of the Spanish Civil Procedural Law. The cost of such certificate and documents will be for the account of the Loan Parties.

213

10.10            Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

(a)            Each of the Secured Parties and the Issuing Lenders hereby, and by their acceptance of the benefits of the Loan Documents, irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Secured Party except as expressly required by Section 11.1): (i) to release or confirm the release of any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (1) at the time the property subject to such Lien is Disposed of or to be Disposed of as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than a Loan Party, (2) subject to Section 11.1, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, (3) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee or (4) that constitutes Excluded Assets or any property that is excluded from the Collateral pursuant to the Agreed Security Principles; (ii) to release or subordinate, as expressly permitted hereunder, any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by this Agreement to the extent required by the holder of, or pursuant to the terms of any agreement governing, the obligations secured by such Liens; (iii) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction, circumstance or designation permitted hereunder; (iv) to amend Section 8.12 to the extent permitted by Section 8.12(f) and to give effect to any limitations set forth in Section 8.12 in any Guarantor Joinder Agreement and/or Borrower Joinder applicable to any Guarantor; (v) to amend any Security Document to give effect to any limitations set forth in the Agreed Security Principles and (vi) to release any Collateral or Guarantor Obligations to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 11.1.

(b)            Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release or confirm the release of (pursuant to clause (a) above) any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee.

(c)            On the Termination Date, the Collateral shall be automatically released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, and the Security Documents and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Group Member under the Security Documents shall automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.

(d)            If (i) a Guarantor was released from its obligations under the Guarantee, (ii) an Additional Revolving Borrower was released from its obligations under the Loan Documents or (iii) the Collateral was released from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Document (or the interest in such item subordinated), in each case in a manner not prohibited by this Agreement or another Loan Document, the Administrative Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to) execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee or such Additional Revolving Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents, the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 10.10.

214

(e)            If as a result of any transaction, event or circumstance not prohibited by this Agreement (i) any Guarantor or Additional Revolving Borrower becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or (ii) any Guarantor or Additional Revolving Borrower is sold (or consolidates or merges with a Person that is not a Loan Party), then (x) such Guarantor’s Guarantee (or the obligations of such Additional Revolving Borrower under the Loan Documents) shall be automatically released, and (y) the Capital Stock of such Guarantor or Additional Revolving Borrower (other than, in the case of a Guarantor or Additional Revolving Borrower that is an Excluded Subsidiary solely by reason of being a CFC or a FSHCO, 65% of the total outstanding voting Capital Stock and 100% of the total outstanding non-voting Capital Stock of such Guarantor or such Additional Revolving Borrower that, in each case, is directly owned by a Borrower or another Guarantor) shall be automatically released from the security interests created by the Loan Documents, or (iii) Capital Stock of any Subsidiary ceases to be directly owned by a Borrower or Guarantor (or a Person then required to be a Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document), then such Capital Stock of such Subsidiary shall be automatically released from any security interests created by the Loan Documents; provided that no Loan Party will dispose of a minority interest in any Guarantor for the primary purpose of releasing the Guarantee made by such Guarantor under the Loan Documents as determined by the Borrower Representative in good faith. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 10.10(e), the Administrative Agent and any applicable Lender shall promptly execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 10.10(e) shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

10.11            Intercreditor Agreements.

The Secured Parties hereby, and by their acceptance of the benefits of the Loan Documents: (a) irrevocably authorize and direct each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to execute and deliver the Initial Intercreditor Agreement, (b) acknowledge that the obligations of the Borrowers and the Guarantors under any Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt, Permitted Second Priority Refinancing Debt, Incremental Equivalent Debt and other Indebtedness permitted by Section 7.2 that is secured by Permitted Liens, and with respect to which such Indebtedness and/or Liens this Agreement contemplates an intercreditor, subordination, collateral trust or similar agreement, or that such Indebtedness shall or may be secured on a pari passu or junior basis to the Liens securing the Obligations, may be secured by Liens on assets of the Borrowers and the Guarantors that constitute Collateral and (c) irrevocably authorizes and directs each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver, without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Secured Party (i) any such intercreditor, subordination, collateral trust or similar agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of, or supplements or other modifications to, any such agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement) constituting an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) any documents, certificates or other instruments in connection therewith, and any such intercreditor, subordination, collateral trust or similar agreement will be binding upon the Secured Parties.

Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably (i) consents to the treatment of Liens to be provided for under the Intercreditor Agreements, (ii) agrees that, upon the execution and delivery thereof, such Secured Party will be bound by the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement as if it were a signatory thereto and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement and (iii) authorizes and directs each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to carry out the provisions and intent of each such document.

215

Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Security Document, no Qualified Counterparty or Cash Management Provider that obtains the benefits of Section 9.5, any Guarantee or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guarantee or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 10 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 Cash Management Agreements and Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Qualified Counterparty or Cash Management Provider, as the case may be.

10.12            Withholding Tax Indemnity. To the extent required by any applicable Laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall, within 10 days after written demand therefor, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party pursuant to Sections 2.16 and 2.19 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 10.12. The agreements in this Section 10.12 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, a “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 10.12, include any Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender.

10.13            Indemnification. Each of the Lenders agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Incremental Facility Arrangers (and, in each case, their Related Parties) in their respective capacities as such (to the extent not reimbursed by any Loan Party and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), according to its Aggregate Exposure Percentage in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 10.13 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, in accordance with its Aggregate Exposure Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Incremental Facility Arrangers or their Related Parties (the foregoing, the “Lender Indemnitees”) in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or any other Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable to any Lender Indemnitee for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent that they are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Lender Indemnitee. The agreements in this Section 10.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

216

10.14            Appointment of Incremental Arrangers, Refinancing Arrangers and Loan Modification Agents. In the event that the Borrower Representative appoints or designates any Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent pursuant to (and subject to) Sections 2.25, 2.26 and 2.28, as applicable, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to an agent or arranger with respect to the Incremental Loans, Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt or Loan Modification Agreement, as applicable, shall be exercisable by and vest in such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to the Incremental Loans, Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt or Loan Modification Agreement, as applicable, and to perform such duties with respect to such Incremental Loans, Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt or Loan Modification Agreement, as applicable, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 10 and of Section 11.5 (obligating the Borrower Representative to pay the Administrative Agent’s expenses and to indemnify the Administrative Agent) that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent, as the context may require. Each Lender and Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints any Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent to act on its behalf hereunder and under the other Loan Documents pursuant to (and subject to) Sections 2.25, 2.26 and 2.28, as applicable, and designates and authorizes such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Incremental Arranger, Refinancing Arranger or Loan Modification Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

10.15 Certain ERISA Matters. (a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.6(b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations if such transaction complies with the requirements of Section 11.6(c).

231

(vi)            The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of (and any stated interest on) the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may 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 any Borrower and any Lender as to its own Commitments and amounts owing to it (and, in the case of any Issuing Lender, as to the identity of each other Revolving Lender), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice (but not to exceed once per calendar month), and to the extent otherwise necessary to establish that the Commitments, Loans, L/C Obligations or other obligations under the Loan Documents are in registered form under Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

(vii)            Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire and applicable Forms (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), together with (x) any processing and recordation fee and (y) any written consent to such assignment required by Section 11.6(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(viii)            If, other than in the course of primary syndication, a Lender assigns any of its rights or obligations under this Section 11.6 and as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment occurs, a Loan Party would be obliged to make a payment with respect to non-U.S. Taxes to the assignee under Section 2.19(a) or Section 2.19(f) then the assignee is only entitled to receive payment under Section 2.19(a) or Section 2.19(f) with respect to such non-U.S. Taxes to the same extent as the assigning Lender would have been if the assignment had not occurred.

232

(c)            (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than a Disqualified Lender, natural person, a Defaulting Lender, Holdings or any Subsidiary of Holdings) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders 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. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires, subject to Section 11.1(b), the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to clauses (A) and (C) of Section 11.1(a) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 11.6(c)(ii), the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19 and 2.21 (subject to the requirements of those sections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.8(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 11.8(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the commitment of, and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of, each Participant’s interest in the Loans, L/C Obligations or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, L/C Obligations or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, L/C Obligation or other obligation is in registered form under Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Unless otherwise required by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(ii)            A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.18 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless such Participant complies with Sections 2.19(j), 2.19(k), 2.19(m) and 2.19(o).

(d)            Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e)            The Borrowers, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agree to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in Section 11.6(d) above.

(f)            [Reserved].

(g)            Each Lender, upon succeeding to an interest in Commitments or Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment and Assumption that it is an Eligible Assignee.

(h)            In case of assignment, transfer or novation by a Lender to a new lender or Participant, of all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Lenders and the new lender or Participant shall agree that, for the purposes of Article 1278 and/or Article 1281 of the Luxembourg Civil Code (to the extent applicable), any assignment, amendment, transfer and/or novation of any kind permitted under, and made in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement or any agreement referred to herein to which a Luxembourg Loan Party is a party (including any Security Document), any security created or guarantee given under the Agreement or in relation to the Agreement shall be preserved and continue in full force and effect to the benefit of the new lender or participant.

233

(i)            Each Spanish Loan Party hereby expressly consents to each assignment, transfer and/or novation of rights or obligations made in accordance with this Section 11.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments). Each Spanish Borrower and Spanish Guarantor also accepts and confirms, for the purposes of the Spanish Civil Code and all other purposes, that all guarantees, indemnities and, if applicable any security interests granted by it under any Loan Document and/or Security Documents will, notwithstanding any such assignment, transfer or novation, continue and be preserved for the benefit of the new lender and each of the other Loan Parties in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, expressly waiving any right the Spanish Loan Party may have in the future under Article 1535 of the Spanish Civil Code to any extent it may be applicable.

11.8            Adjustments; Set-off.

(a)            Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly provides for or permits payments to be allocated or made to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it under any Facility, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 9.1(g) or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender under such Facility, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders under such Facility a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders under such Facility; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b)            In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent, without prior notice to Holdings or any Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being expressly waived by Holdings and the Borrowers and each other Loan Party to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to set off and appropriate and apply against the Obligations any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of Holdings or the Borrowers or any such other Loan Party, as the case may be. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

For the purposes of calculating the actual amount of interest paid and/or payable hereunder in respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the holder hereof for the use, forbearance or detention of the Indebtedness of the Borrowers evidenced hereby, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans until payment in full of all of such Indebtedness, so that the actual rate of interest on account of such Indebtedness is uniform through the term hereof. The terms and provisions of this Section 11.20(a) shall control and supersede every other provision of all agreements between the Borrowers or any endorser of the Loans and the Lenders.

238

(b)            If under any circumstances any Lender shall ever receive an amount which would exceed the Maximum Amount, such amount shall be deemed a payment in reduction of the principal amount of the Loans and shall be treated as a voluntary prepayment under Section 2.10 and shall be so applied in accordance with Section 2.17 or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of the Loans and any other Indebtedness of the Borrowers in favor of such Lender, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to the Borrowers.

11.21            Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents (including, except as set forth in Section 11.8(b), the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, unless expressly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section 11.21 are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.

11.22            No Fiduciary Duty. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Joint Bookrunners, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Incremental Facility Arrangers, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their Affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other, except as otherwise explicitly provided herein. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person, except as otherwise explicitly provided herein. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

11.23            [Reserved].

239

11.24            Conduct of Business by the Lenders. No provision of this Agreement will (a) interfere with the right of any Lender to arrange its affairs (tax or otherwise) in whatever manner it thinks fit or (b) oblige any Lender to investigate or claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it or the extent, order and manner of any claim.

11.25            Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Agreement or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States). In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(e)            the Administrative Agent shall have received, on behalf of itself and the Lenders, an opinion of counsel (local and/or New York, depending on the circumstances and the relevant market standard), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with respect to the foregoing documents; and

12.2            Status of Borrowers.

(a)            An Additional Revolving Borrower designated in accordance with Section 12.1 shall be a “Revolving Borrower” and a “Borrower” under the Revolving Facility and will have the right to directly request Revolving Borrowings in accordance with Section 2 hereof until the earlier to occur of the Revolving Termination Date or the date on which such Additional Revolving Borrower terminates its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with Section 12.3 or the date on which such Additional Revolving Borrower is released from its obligations under the Loan Documents in accordance with this Agreement.

241

(b)            Each Term Borrower hereby accepts joint and several liability hereunder with respect to the Term Loans and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations with respect to the Term Loans to be provided by Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Term Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of each Term Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the Term Loans. Each Term Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with each other such Term Borrower, with respect to the payment of the Term Loans, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Term Loans shall be the joint and several obligations of the Term Borrowers without preferences or distinction among them. If and to the extent that any of the Term Borrowers shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Term Loans as and when due, then in each such event each other Term Borrower will make such payment with respect to the Term Loans.

(c)            For the avoidance of doubt, each Additional Revolving Borrower shall be liable solely for its direct Revolving Borrowings and interest and any Letter of Credit fees in respect of Letters of Credit requested by such Additional Revolving Borrower and any reimbursement obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders that may arise in respect of the foregoing, and no Additional Revolving Borrower in its capacity as such shall have any direct liability whatsoever for any of the Obligations of the Borrowers or any other Additional Revolving Borrower. Notwithstanding the term “Additional Revolving Borrower”, which is used for convenience only, under no circumstance shall any Additional Revolving Borrower in its capacity as such be deemed to be jointly and severally liable for the Obligations of any other Loan Party under any Loan Document. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 12.2(c), this Section 12.2(c) shall in no way limit the obligations of such Additional Revolving Borrower under the Guarantee.

12.3            Resignation of Additional Revolving Borrowers. An Additional Revolving Borrower may elect to terminate its eligibility to request Borrowings and to cease to be an Additional Revolving Borrower hereunder upon the occurrence of, and such resignation shall be effective upon, all of the following:

(a)            such resigning Additional Revolving Borrower shall have paid in full in cash all of its direct Obligations under the Revolving Facility; and

(b)            such resigning Additional Revolving Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a notice of resignation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that such resignation shall not, to the extent applicable, have any impact on such Person’s obligations as a Subsidiary Guarantor and such obligations, to the extent applicable, shall continue to be effective in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement and the other provisions and undertakings hereunder related thereto.

12.4            Appointment of Borrower Representative; Nature of Relationship. On the Closing Date, Camelot U.S. Acquisition 1 Co., a Delaware corporation, is hereby appointed by each of the other Borrowers as its contractual representative and after the Closing Date, the Borrowers may appoint a different or additional contractual representative, subject to the Administrative Agent’s consent (such consent not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (herein referred to as the “Borrower Representative”) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the other Borrowers irrevocably authorizes the Borrower Representative to act as the contractual representative of such Borrower with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.

242

The Borrower Representative agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Section 12. Additionally, the Borrowers hereby appoint the Borrower Representative as their agent to receive and direct all of the proceeds of the Loans, at which time the Borrower Representative shall promptly disburse such Loans to the appropriate Borrower. None of the Revolving Lenders or their respective officers, directors, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrower Representative or any Borrower for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Borrower Representative or the other Borrowers pursuant to this Section 12.4.

12.5            Powers. The Borrower Representative shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Borrower Representative by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Borrower Representative shall have no implied duties to the other Borrowers, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the Borrower Representative.

12.6            Employment of Agents. The Borrower Representative may execute any of its duties as the Borrower Representative hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through its Responsible Officers.

12.7            Execution of Loan Documents. The other Borrowers hereby empower and authorize the Borrower Representative, on behalf of such Borrowers, to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the Loan Documents and all related agreements, certificates, documents, or instruments as shall be necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that any action taken by the Borrower Representative or the Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Borrower Representative of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Borrowers.
