Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Domestic Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Parent, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Domestic Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Domestic Administrative Agent of any payment from the Parent pursuant to this paragraph, the Domestic Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Parent of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Parent’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements drawn under a Letter of Credit requested by the Parent as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Parent’s obligations hereunder. None of the Domestic Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the

Parent to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Parent to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Parent that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

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

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Parent shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Parent reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Parent fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, then Section 2.12(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Parent, the Domestic Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Domestic Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Parent shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and

obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Parent receives notice from the Domestic Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 51% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, Parent shall deposit in a separate account with the Domestic Administrative Agent, in the name of the Domestic Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrowers described in clause (i) or (j) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Domestic Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Parent under this Agreement. The Domestic Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the sole discretion of the Domestic Administrative Agent and at the risk and expense of the Parent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such accounts. Moneys in such accounts shall be applied by the Domestic Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements of the Parent for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 51% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If the Parent is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Parent within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

SECTION 2.06 Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the applicable Administrative Agent or an Affiliate thereof most recently designated by it for such purpose (and with respect to the applicable Currency) by notice to the Lenders, by the Specified Time; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Domestic Administrative Agent will make Revolving Loans available to the Parent by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Parent maintained with the Domestic Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by the Parent in the applicable Borrowing Request (or, in the case of any Loan with respect to which the Parent shall have requested funding in an Alternative Currency, to such account in such jurisdiction as the Parent shall have designated in the applicable Borrowing Request); provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Domestic Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank. The Domestic Administrative Agent will make the Domestic Term Loans available to the Parent by wire transfer of the amounts so received, in like funds, to such

accounts, as the Parent shall have designated in the applicable Borrowing Request. The French Administrative Agent will make the French Term Loans available to the applicable French Borrower by wire transfer of the amounts so received, in like funds, to such accounts, as such French Borrower shall have designated in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless an Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to such Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, such Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the applicable Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to such Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to such Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the Overnight Rate or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to an Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.07 Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Borrowing initially shall be of the Type (and in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, the Currency) specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods (or, in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, Currencies therefor), all as provided in this Section 2.07. Eurodollar Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies may not be converted to Loans of a different Type. The Borrowers may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section 2.07 shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable Borrower shall notify the applicable Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the applicable Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the applicable Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by such Administrative Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) in the case of such continuation or conversion of a Revolving Borrowing, whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and

(v) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, the Currency of the resulting Borrowing.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify (x) an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration or (y) in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, a Currency, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected a Borrowing denominated in dollars (in the case of an initial Eurocurrency Borrowing) or the same Currency as the Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing being continued.

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

(e) If the Parent fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing (i) if denominated in dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing and (ii) if denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be converted to a one month Interest Period denominated in the same Currency as the Eurocurrency Borrowing being continued. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Domestic Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the applicable Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.08 Termination, Reduction and Increase of Commitments. (a) The Term Commitments shall terminate on the Effective Date and, unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

(b) The Parent may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) Parent shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Revolving Commitments.

(c) The Parent shall notify the Domestic Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section 2.08 at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Domestic Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Parent pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Parent may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Parent (by notice to the Domestic Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments.

(d) The Parent may at any time, by written notice to the Domestic Administrative Agent, request that the Domestic Administrative Agent increase the total Revolving Commitments (a “Revolver Increase”) by (i) adding one or more new lenders to the revolving credit facility under this Agreement (each a “New Lender”) who wish to participate in such Revolver Increase and/or (ii) increasing the Revolving Commitments of one or more Revolving Lenders party to this Agreement who wish to participate in such Revolver Increase; provided, however, that (w) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date of such request or as of the effective date of such Revolver Increase (the “Increase Date”) or shall occur as a result thereof, (x) any New Lender that becomes party to this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.08(d) shall satisfy the requirements of Section 9.04(b) hereof and shall be acceptable to the Domestic Administrative Agent and consented to by the Parent and (y) the other conditions set forth in Section 2.08(e) below are satisfied. The Domestic Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the syndication of any Revolver Increase. The Domestic Administrative Agent shall promptly inform the Lenders of any such request made by the Parent. The aggregate amount of Revolver Increases shall not exceed $25,000,000 and no single such Revolver Increase shall be for an amount less than $5,000,000.

(e) On each Increase Date, (i) each New Lender that has chosen to participate in such Revolver Increase shall, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.08(d) hereof, become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such Increase Date and shall have a Revolving Commitment in an amount equal to its share of the Revolver Increase and (ii) each Revolving Lender that has chosen to increase its Revolving Commitment pursuant to Section 2.08(d) will have its Revolving Commitment increased by the amount of its share of the Revolver Increase as of such Increase Date; provided, however, that the Domestic Administrative Agent shall have (y) received from the Parent all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Domestic

Administrative Agent in connection with such Revolver Increase and (z) received on or before such Increase Date the following, each dated such date:

(i) certified copies of resolutions of the governing body of each Loan Party approving the Revolver Increase and the corresponding modifications, if any, to the Loan Documents required under subclause (vi) below, together with a certificate of the Parent certifying that there have been no changes to the constitutive documents of the Parent since the Effective Date, or if there have been changes, copies certified by the Parent of all such changes;

(ii) an Assignment and Assumption from each New Lender participating in the Revolver Increase, if any, duly executed by such New Lender, the Domestic Administrative Agent and the Parent;

(iii) confirmation from each Revolving Lender participating in the Revolver Increase of the increase in the amount of its Revolving Commitment, in form and substance satisfactory to the Domestic Administrative Agent;

(iv) a certificate of the Parent certifying that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a result of such Revolver Increase;

(v) a certificate of the Parent certifying that the representations and warranties made by the Parent herein and in the other Loan Documents are true and complete in all material respects with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date (or, to the extent any such representation or warranty specifically relates to an earlier date, such representation or warranty is true and complete in all material respects as of such earlier date); and

(vi) supplements or modifications to the Loan Documents and such additional Loan Documents, including any new promissory notes to New Lenders and replacement promissory notes to Revolving Lenders that agree to participate in such Revolver Increase and request such promissory notes, that the Domestic Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary in order to document such Revolver Increase and otherwise assure and give effect to the rights of the Domestic Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders in the Loan Documents.

(f) On each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Section 2.08(d), the Domestic Administrative Agent shall (i) effect a settlement of all outstanding Loans among the Revolving Lenders that will reflect the adjustments to the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders as a result of the Revolver Increase, including reflecting that each Lender holds its Applicable Percentage of the Revolving Loans outstanding that are denominated in each Currency and (ii) notify the Revolving Lenders, any New Lenders participating in the Revolver Increase and the Borrowers, on or before the Specified Time, by telecopier or telex, of the occurrence of the Revolver Increase to be effected on such Increase Date.

SECTION 2.09 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) (i) The Parent hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Domestic Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan made to the Parent by such Revolving Lender on the Maturity Date and (ii) the Parent hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made to the Parent, the Parent shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding. The Parent hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Domestic Administrative Agent for the account of each Domestic Term Lender the Domestic Term Loans on the first Business Day of the month following each date set forth below in the aggregate principal amount set forth opposite such date (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 2.10(c)):

To the extent not previously paid, all unpaid Term Loans shall be paid in full in cash by the applicable Borrowers on the Maturity Date.

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

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

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

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it to any Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agents. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.10 Prepayment of Loans. (a) Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any of its Borrowings in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section 2.10.

(b) The applicable Borrower shall notify the applicable Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment under clause (a) above (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than the Specified Time three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than the Specified Time one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than the Specified Time on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing or a Term Borrowing, the applicable Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment pursuant to clause (a) above of any Revolving Borrowing or Term Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the applicable prepaid Borrowing.

(c) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of any Loan Party in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Borrowers shall, immediately after such Net Proceeds are received by any Loan Party, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds, to be applied (i) if such Net Proceeds are received with respect to a Prepayment Event attributable to property or any asset of Parent or any Domestic Guarantor, such Net Proceeds shall be applied first to the Domestic Term Loans and second to the French Term Loans, (ii) if such Net Proceeds are received with respect to a Prepayment Event attributable to property or any asset of a French Borrower or any Foreign Guarantor, such Net Proceeds shall be applied to the French Term Loans and (iii) in either case to be applied to installments of the Term Loans in inverse order of maturity; provided that no such prepayment shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) if, with respect to any Net Proceeds realized or received with respect to any Prepayment Event, at the option of the Parent, and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Parent reinvests or causes to be reinvested all or any portion of such Net Proceeds in assets useful for its business within two hundred and seventy (270) days of the receipt of such Net Proceeds; provided further that if any Net Proceeds are not so reinvested within the time period set forth above in this Section 2.10(c), an amount equal to any such Net Proceeds shall be promptly applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in this Section 2.10(c).

(d) Within five Business Days after financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) and the related Compliance Certificate has been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(c), the Parent shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans equal to (i) 75% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year covered by such financial statements in the case of the fiscal years ending June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2011, and (ii) 75% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year covered by such financial statements in the case of the fiscal years ending June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2013 if the Leverage Ratio for either such fiscal year is greater than 1.00 to 1,

applied on a pro rata basis between the Domestic Term Loans and the French Term Loans and applied to installments of such Term Loans in inverse order of maturity.

(e) Upon the issuance of any Indebtedness pursuant to Section 6.01(k), the Parent shall, within ten days of the receipt thereof, use 100% of the Net Proceeds (except to the extent used substantially concurrently with such issuance to fund one or more Permitted Acquisitions) to prepay the Loans, applied first on a pro rata basis between the Domestic Term Loans and the French Term Loans and applied to installments of such Term Loans in inverse order of maturity and second applied to the Revolving Loans (with corresponding reductions in the Revolving Commitments).

(f) If the Domestic Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers at any time that:

(i) the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceed the then current aggregate Revolving Commitments, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Parent shall prepay Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis in an amount sufficient to cause the total Revolving Credit Exposures to not exceed the then current aggregate Revolving Commitments; or

(ii) the outstanding amount of all Revolving Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies at such time exceeds an amount equal to 105% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Parent shall prepay Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce the outstanding amount of Revolving Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as of the date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit.

(g) Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.

SECTION 2.11 Fees. (a) The Parent agrees to pay to the Domestic Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee (the “Revolving Credit Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the unused Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates, whether or not prior to such time all the conditions in Section 4.02 are met. Accrued Revolving Credit Commitment Fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the third Business Day of January, April, July and October of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. All Revolving Credit Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b) The Parent agrees to pay (i) to the Domestic Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate

applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Parent and the Issuing Bank on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c) Each Borrower agrees to pay to each Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between such Borrower and any Administrative Agent.

(d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Domestic Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank or the French Administrative Agent, in the case of fees payable to such party) for distribution, in the case of Revolving Credit Commitment Fee and participation fees, to the Revolving Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.12 Interest. (a) The Revolving Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) The Revolving Loans and the Domestic Term Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(c) The French Term Loans shall bear interest at EURIBOR for the Interest Period in effect for the applicable Borrower plus the Applicable Rate.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan or in the case of any other overdue amount in connection with any French Term Loan or

any Eurodollar Revolving Loan that is denominated in any Alternative Currency, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.12 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.12; provided, that interest on any such overdue amount with respect to Loans held by any French Borrower accruing as described in clause (i) above shall be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to such overdue amount if and only if, within the meaning of Article 1154 of the French Code civil, such interest is due for a period of at least one year but will remain immediately due and payable.

(e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section 2.12 shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

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

(g) To comply with the provisions of Articles L.313-4 and R.313-1 of the French Code monétaire et financier and articles L.313-1, L.313-2 and R.313-1 to R.313-5 of the French Code de la consommation, the French Borrowers and the Lenders agree that the effective global interest rate for each of the Loans held by the French Borrowers cannot be calculated as of the Effective Date for the entire duration of this Agreement; however, a letter which sets forth a sample calculation of interest on the Loans shall be provided to the French Borrowers by the French Administrative Agent on the Effective Date and prior to the making of any Loan to a French Borrower. The French Borrowers and the Lenders acknowledge that this letter is an integral part of this Agreement. For each Interest Period applicable to a French Term Loan, the French Administrative Agent shall notify the relevant French Borrower of the actual global effective rate (taux effectif global) applicable to such Interest Period.

SECTION 2.13 Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing of Revolving Loans:

(i) The Domestic Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and

reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

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

then the Domestic Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Parent and the Revolving Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Domestic Administrative Agent notifies the Parent and the Revolving Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that (x) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted and (y) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Currency, then Borrowings in other Currencies shall be permitted.

(b) Subject to the following sentence, if EURIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time on the Quotation Day, the applicable EURIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks. If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to a French Term Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each French Term Lender’s share of that Loan for the Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of (i) the Applicable Margin, (ii) the rate notified to the French Administrative Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event before interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select and (iii) the Mandatory Cost, if any, applicable to that Lender’s participation in the Loan. If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the French Administrative Agent or any French Borrower so requires, the French Administrative Agent and the French Borrowers shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. Any such alternative basis so agreed shall, with the prior consent of all the Term Lenders and the French Borrowers, be binding on all parties.

SECTION 2.14 Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by

such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein (excluding any such condition relating to Taxes (as to which Section 2.16 shall govern));

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

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

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, after the date hereof, (x) any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Revolving Lender to make or maintain any Revolving Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any such Loan or (y) there shall have

occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates that would make it impracticable for any Revolving Lender to make or maintain Loans denominated in the affected Currency, then, by written notice to the Parent and to the Domestic Administrative Agent:

(i) such Revolving Lender or Revolving Lenders may declare that Revolving Loans in the affected Currency or Currencies will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness or impracticality) be made by such Revolving Lender or Revolving Lenders hereunder (or, in the case of outstanding Loans, be continued for additional Interest Periods), whereupon any request for a Borrowing in the affected Currency or Currencies (or to continue a Borrowing in the affected Currency or Currencies for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Revolving Lender or Lenders only, be deemed a request for an Eurodollar Loan having an Interest Period of one month’s duration and denominated in dollars at the Exchange Rate determined by the Domestic Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement (or a request to convert a Revolving Loan into a Eurodollar Loan having an Interest Period of one month’s duration and denominated in dollars at the Exchange Rate determined by the Domestic Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Revolving Loans in the affected Currency or Currencies made by it be converted to Eurodollar Revolving Loans having an Interest Period of one month’s duration and denominated in dollars, in which event all such Loans in the affected Currency or Currencies shall be converted to Eurodollar Revolving Loans having an Interest Period of one month’s duration and denominated in dollars, as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section 2.14 and at the Exchange Rate determined by the Domestic Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement on the date of such conversion.

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

(f) For purposes of paragraph (e) of this Section 2.14, a notice to the Parent by any Revolving Lender shall be effective as to each Revolving Loan made by such Revolving Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period currently applicable to such Revolving Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt thereof by the Parent.

SECTION 2.15 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable

thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each applicable Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate or EURIBOR, as applicable, that would have been applicable to such Loan (excluding, however the Applicable Rate included therein, if any), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.16 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes; provided that if any Borrower shall be required to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrowers shall severally but not jointly indemnify each Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes levied, imposed or assessed on (and whether or not paid directly by) such Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to

a Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by any Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. After an Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank (as the case may be) learns of the imposition of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank (as the case may be) will act in good faith to promptly notify the Borrowers of their obligations hereunder. In addition, the Borrower shall indemnify each Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank for any incremental Taxes that may become payable by such Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank as a result of any failure of the Borrower to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or to deliver to each Administrative Agent, pursuant to clause (d), documentation evidencing the payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority and in any event within 90 days of any such payment being due, such Borrower shall deliver to each Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agents.

(e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the applicable law, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to such Borrower (with a copy to each Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender shall deliver to the Parent and the Administrative Agents on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the expiration or invalidity of any of the certificates or IRS forms described below or upon the request of the Parent or an Administrative Agent, but only if such Lender is legally entitled to do so), two (2) original copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) duly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;

(ii) duly completed and executed IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form), establishing that such party is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax;

(iii) in the case of a party claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such party is not (A) a “bank” described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code), (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Parent described in Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN; or

(iv) IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form), establishing that such party is not subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

(f) If an Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over such refund to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such 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 each Borrower, upon the request of an Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event such Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require any 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 Borrowers or any other Person.

SECTION 2.17 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to the Specified Time at the place of payment, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the applicable Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to (i) the Domestic Administrative Agent at its offices at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, in the case of payments denominated in dollars and (ii) the applicable Administrative Agent at its offices at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx, XX0X 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, attention of Xxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxx, in the case of payments in respect of Revolving Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies and in the case of payments in respect of French Term Loans, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The applicable Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars or, in the case of principal of and interest on any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Alternative Currency, as the case may be. Except as provided in clause (c) below, each payment or prepayment of principal or payment of interest in respect of a Borrowing of Loans shall be allocated ratably among the parties entitled thereto.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the applicable Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC

Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds received on the account of each Borrower shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder by such Borrower, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder by such Borrower, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties and (iii) third, towards payment of Obligations under any Guaranty to which such Borrower is a party.

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

(d) Unless the applicable Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to such Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the applicable Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the applicable Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to such Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by such Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.17(d) or 9.03(c), then the applicable Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by such Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.18 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the applicable Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the applicable Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the applicable Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans (and, if applicable, participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans), accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the applicable Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.19 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a);

(b) the Revolving Commitment, Revolving Credit Exposure and Term Loans outstanding with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.02), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

(i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders that are Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Parent shall within one Business Day following notice by Domestic Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if Parent cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to this Section 2.19(c), the Parent shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.19(c), then the fees payable to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and Section 2.11(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ pro rata shares (based on their respective Revolving Commitments); and

(v) if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.19(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and

(b) Each Lender shall, in consultation with the applicable Borrower, take all reasonable steps as may be available to it to mitigate any circumstances which arise and which would result in any amount becoming payable under or pursuant to the Mandatory Cost including (but not limited to) transferring its rights and obligations under this Agreement to another Affiliate or office or offices through which it will perform its obligations under this Agreement; provided, that any such Lender will not be required to take any such action if to do so would, in the judgment of such Lender, be reasonably expected to have an adverse effect on its business, operations or financial condition, cause it to incur liabilities or obligations or reduce its return in relation to its participations in the Loans.

(c) Each Lender shall supply the applicable Administrative Agent with any information required by the applicable Administrative Agent in order to calculate the Mandatory Cost.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints each Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes each Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Each bank serving as an 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 an Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Administrative Agent hereunder.

The Administrative Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agents shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agents shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the applicable Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agents shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any

information relating to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by either bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Administrative Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Each Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Administrative Agent by a Borrower or a Lender, and neither Administrative Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Administrative Agent.

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

Each Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Administrative Agent. Each Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each 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.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, any Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with and, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to the consent of (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), the Parent, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office (a) in the case of a successor Domestic Administrative Agent, in New York, New York and (b) in the case of a successor French Administrative Agent, in London, or an Affiliate

of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. 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 any Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Each Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank appoint the French Administrative Agent to act as security trustee under and in connection with the Foreign Security Documents on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 8.

Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agents to execute the Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agents with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.09 or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv)

change Section 2.17 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby (except for technical amendments with respect to additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement which affect the protections to such additional extensions of credit of the type provided to the Revolving Commitments and the Term Loans on the Effective Date), or (v) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of such Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be.

SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Parent shall pay (i) all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by each Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agents, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including its rights under this Section 9.03, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout or restructuring in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

(b) The Borrowers shall, severally but not jointly, indemnify each Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims,

damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) To the extent that any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.04. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (which assignees shall not be a Loan Party, any member of the Sponsor Group or any of their respective Affiliates) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

(A) the Borrowers, provided that no consent of the Borrowers shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;

(B) the applicable Administrative Agent; and

(C) the Issuing Bank, provided that no consent of the Issuing Bank shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan.

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than (x) $5,000,000, in the case of a Revolving Commitment, (y) $1,000,000, in the case of a Domestic Term Loan, or (z) 1,000,000 EUR, in the case of a French Term Loan, in each case unless each of the applicable Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of any Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500;

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Loan Parties and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws; and

(E) the assignee shall be a Qualifying French Lender in the case of an assignment of any French Term Commitment or French Term Loans.

For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04.

(iv) The Domestic Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States 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 Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements 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 Agents, the Issuing Bank 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 the Borrowers, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04, the applicable Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be

made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.17(d) or 9.03(c), the applicable Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower, any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment 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 Agents, the Issuing Bank 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 or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it were a Lender.

(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 without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve 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) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain at one of its offices in the United States a

register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

SECTION 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by any Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to any Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agents and when the Domestic Administrative Agent (or its counsel) shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or via other electronic means satisfactory to the Administrative Agent shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (c), (i), (j) or (k) of Article VII shall have occurred and be continuing, or if any other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Required Lenders shall so consent, each

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

SECTION 9.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

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

(c) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.09. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS

REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.10.

SECTION 9.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality. (a) Each of the Administrative Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.12, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations, (vii) with the consent of any Borrower or (viii) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.12 or (B) becomes available to any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower. For the purposes of this Section 9.12, “Information” means all information received from any Borrower relating to any Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.12 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

(b) EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 9.12(a) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING ANY BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

(c) ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY ANY BORROWER OR ANY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

SECTION 9.13 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.14 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Act.

SECTION 9.15 Currency of Payment. Each payment owing by any Borrower hereunder shall be made in the relevant Currency specified herein or, if not specified herein, specified in any other Loan Document executed by any Administrative Agent (the “Currency of Payment”) at the place specified herein (such requirements are of the essence of this Agreement). If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in a Currency of Payment into another Currency, the parties hereto agree that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Domestic Administrative Agent could purchase such Currency of Payment with such other currency at the Exchange Rate on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations in respect of any sum due hereunder to any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall, notwithstanding any adjudication expressed in a currency other than the Currency of Payment, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or Issuing Bank of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other Currency, such Lender or

Issuing Bank may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase the Currency of Payment with such other currency. Each Borrower agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) if the amount of the Currency of Payment so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or Issuing Bank in the Currency of Payment, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding the result of any such adjudication, such Borrower shall promptly pay the shortfall (in the Currency of Payment) to such Lender or Issuing Bank and (b) if the amount of the Currency of Payment so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to such Lender or Issuing Bank, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly pay the excess over to such Borrower in the currency and to the extent actually received.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

SCHEDULE 2.20

MANDATORY COST FORMULAE

1.		The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

2.		On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the applicable Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the applicable Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

3.		The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the applicable Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Applicable Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

4.		The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the applicable Administrative Agent as follows:

(a)

in relation to a sterling Loan:


AB + C(B − D) + E × 0.0₁ 10₀ − (A + C)		percent per annum

(b)

in relation to a Loan in any currency other than sterling:


E × 0.0₁ 30₀		percent per annum.

	Where:

	A		is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

	B		is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Rate and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is bearing interest pursuant to Section 2.12, the additional rate of interest specified in such Section 2.12) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.

	C		is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

	D		is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the applicable Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.

	E		is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Applicable Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Applicable Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

For the purposes of this Schedule 2.20:

	(a)		“Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

	(b)		“Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the Financial Services Authority Fees Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

	(c)		“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and

	(d)		“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.

In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 percent will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

If requested by the applicable Administrative Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the applicable Administrative Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Applicable Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

	(a)		the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

	(b)		any other information that the Applicable Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

	Each Lender shall promptly notify the applicable Administrative Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E shall be determined by the Applicable Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to Paragraphs 7 and 8 and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the applicable Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

10.

The applicable Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to Paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 is true and correct in all respects.

11.

The applicable Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to Paragraphs 3, 7 and 8.

12.

Any determination by either Administrative Agent pursuant to this Schedule 2.20 in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

13.

Either Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Parent and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule 2.20 in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

2.17

Distribution of proceeds of enforcement

	(a)		To the extent that the Collateral Documents provide for the net proceeds of any enforcement to be applied against the Obligations, the French Administrative Agent shall apply them in payment of any amounts due but unpaid under the Loan Documents, if applicable in the order set out in Section 2.17(b) of the Credit Agreement. This shall override any appropriation made by any Loan Parties.

GUARANTY (DOMESTIC OBLIGATIONS)

This GUARANTY (DOMESTIC OBLIGATIONS), dated as of [ ], 2010 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Guaranty”), is made by each Domestic Subsidiary of Mirion Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”) from time to time a party hereto (each individually, a “Guarantor” and, collectively, the “Guarantors”), in favor of JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, in its capacity as the domestic administrative agent (together with its successor(s) thereto in such capacity, the “Domestic Administrative Agent”) for each of the Secured Parties (as defined below).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Parent, Mirion Technologies (Synodys) SA and Mirion Technologies (IST France) SAS (together, the “French Borrowers”; and, collectively with the Parent the “Borrowers”), the various financial institutions and other Persons from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), the Domestic Administrative Agent and X.X. Xxxxxx Europe Limited, as French Administrative Agent, the Lenders have agreed to make French Term Loans to the French Borrowers and to make Revolving Loans and Domestic Term Loans to the Parent;

WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to the making of the Loans under the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor is required to execute and deliver this Guaranty; and

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans to the Parent, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees, for the benefit of each of the Domestic Administrative Agent, each Domestic Term Lender and each Revolving Lender (collectively, the “Secured Parties”), as follows:

ARTICLE I
GUARANTY PROVISIONS

SECTION 1.1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably

(a) guarantees the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Parent under the Loan Documents now or hereafter existing, whether for principal, interest (including interest accruing at the then applicable rate provided in the Credit Agreement after the occurrence of any Default set forth in clause (i) or (j) of Article VII of the Credit Agreement,

whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed under applicable law following the institution of a proceeding under bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws), fees, reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit or otherwise, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses or otherwise (including all such amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §362(a), and the operation of Sections 502(b) and 506(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §502(b) and §506(b)) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”); and

(b) indemnifies and holds harmless each Secured Party for any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by such Secured Party in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Secured Party, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Secured Party, (collectively, the “Indemnified Obligations”; and, collectively with the Guaranteed Obligations, the “Obligations”);

provided that each Guarantor shall only be liable under this Guaranty for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering this Guaranty, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount. This Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and each Guarantor specifically agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, it shall not be necessary or required that any Secured Party exercise any right, assert any claim or demand or enforce any remedy whatsoever against any Loan Party or any other Person before or as a condition to the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 1.2. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Guarantor is made to the Domestic Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Domestic Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Domestic Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

SECTION 1.3. Guaranty Absolute, etc. This Guaranty shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable guaranty of payment, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall remain in full force and effect until the date (the “Termination Date”) on which all Obligations (other than contingent indemnity and reimbursement obligations) have been paid in full in cash, and all Revolving Commitments shall have expired or been terminated. Each Guarantor jointly and severally guarantees that the Obligations will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of each Loan Document under which they arise, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Secured Party with

respect thereto. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be joint and several, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of any Loan Document;

(b) the failure of any Secured Party (i) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other Person (including any other guarantor) under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise, or (ii) to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor (including any Guarantor) of, or collateral securing, any Obligations;

(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Obligations, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any Obligation;

(d) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of any Obligations for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to (and each Guarantor hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, nongenuineness, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, any Obligations or otherwise;

(e) any amendment to, rescission, waiver, or other modification of, or any consent to or departure from, any of the terms of any Loan Document;

(f) any addition, exchange or release of any collateral or of any Person that is (or will become) a guarantor (including a Guarantor hereunder) of the Obligations, or any surrender or non-perfection of any collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release of or addition to, or consent to or departure from, any other guaranty held by any Secured Party securing any of the Obligations; or

(g) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Loan Party, any surety or any guarantor.

SECTION 1.4. Setoff. If an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (c), (i), (j) or (k) of Article VII of the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, or if any other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Required Lenders shall so consent, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any of and all the obligations of any Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Guaranty and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 1.5. Waiver, etc. Each Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice not provided for herein with respect to any of the Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person (including any other guarantor) or entity or any collateral securing the Obligations, as the case may be. Each Guarantor waives any rights and defenses that are or may become available to such Guarantor by reason of §§ 2787 to 2855, inclusive, and §§ 2899 and 3433 of the California Civil Code. As provided below, this Guaranty shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. The foregoing waivers and the provisions hereinafter set forth in this Guaranty which pertain to California Law are included solely out of an abundance of caution, and shall not be construed to mean that any of the above-referenced provisions of California law are in any way applicable to this Guaranty or the Obligations.

SECTION 1.6. Postponement of Subrogation, etc. Each Guarantor agrees that it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document to which it is a party, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Loan Party, in respect of any payment made, under any Loan Document or otherwise, until following the Termination Date. Any amount paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the Termination Date shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid and turned over to the Domestic Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly endorsed in favor of the Domestic Administrative Agent, if required), to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with Section 1.7; provided that if any Guarantor has made payment to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Obligations and the Termination Date has occurred, then at such Guarantor’s request, the Domestic Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) will, at the expense of such Guarantor, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty) necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, at all times prior to the Termination Date, each Guarantor shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any Loan Party (or any of their respective successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts in respect of payments made under this Guaranty to any Secured Party.

SECTION 1.7. Payments; Application. Each Guarantor hereby agrees with each Secured Party as follows:

(a) Each Guarantor agrees that all payments made by such Guarantor hereunder will be made in the applicable Currency to the Domestic Administrative Agent, without setoff, counterclaim or other defense and in accordance with Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement, free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, each Guarantor hereby agreeing to comply with and be bound by the provisions of Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement in respect of all payments made by it hereunder and the provisions of which Sections are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Guaranty by this reference as if set forth herein; provided that references to any

“Borrower” in such Sections shall be deemed to be references to each Guarantor, and references to “this Agreement” or “hereunder” in such Sections shall be deemed to be references to this Guaranty.

(b) All payments made hereunder shall be applied upon receipt to the Secured Obligations as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE II
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

SECTION 2.1. Representations. In order to induce the Secured Parties to enter into the Credit Agreement and make Loans thereunder, each Guarantor represents and warrants to each Secured Party as set forth below.

(a) Organization; Powers. Each Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing and, where applicable, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and, where applicable, is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

(b) Authorization; Enforceability. The Guaranty is within each Guarantor’s corporate powers and has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and, if required, stockholder action. This Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by each Guarantor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(c) Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Guaranty (a) does not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation, (c) will not violate any charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of any Guarantor or any order of any Governmental Authority, (d) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon any Guarantor or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Guarantor, and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than the Liens on the Collateral granted by the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents) on any asset of any of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, except for, in the case of clause (a), those consents, approvals, negotiations, filings, or actions, the failure of which to obtain or make could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and, in the case of clauses (b) and (d), with respect to any violation or default to the extent such violation or default could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Each Guarantor has knowledge of each other Loan Party’s financial condition and affairs and has adequate means to obtain from the Parent and each such Loan Party on an ongoing basis information relating thereto and to such Loan Party’s ability to pay and perform the Obligations, and agrees to assume the responsibility for keeping, and to keep, so informed for so long as this Guaranty is in effect. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Parties shall have no obligation to investigate the financial condition or affairs of any Loan Party for the benefit of such Guarantor nor to advise such Guarantor of any fact respecting, or any change in, the financial condition or affairs of any Loan Party that might become known to any Secured Party at any time, whether or not such Secured Party knows or believes or has reason to know or believe that any such fact or change is unknown to such Guarantor, or might (or does) materially increase the risk of such Guarantor as guarantor, or might (or would) affect the willingness of such Guarantor to continue as a guarantor of the Obligations.

ARTICLE III
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

This Guaranty is a Loan Document executed pursuant to the Credit Agreement and shall (unless otherwise expressly indicated herein) be construed, administered and applied in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.

(c) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (b) OF THIS SECTION.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS GUARANTY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 3.13. Counterparts.

SECTION 3.14. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in one Currency into another Currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Domestic Administrative Agent could purchase the first Currency with such other Currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Guarantor in respect of any such sum due from it to the Domestic Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a

If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Domestic Administrative Agent from any Guarantor in the Agreement Currency, such Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, and, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify the Domestic Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Domestic Administrative Agent in such Currency, the Domestic Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Guarantor (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

GUARANTY (FRENCH OBLIGATIONS)

This GUARANTY (FRENCH OBLIGATIONS), dated as of [ ], 2010 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Guaranty”), is made by Mirion Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”) and each Subsidiary of the Parent from time to time a party hereto (each individually, a “Guarantor” and, collectively, the “Guarantors”), in favor of X.X. XXXXXX EUROPE LIMITED, in its capacity as the French administrative agent (together with its successor(s) thereto in such capacity, the “French Administrative Agent”) for each of the Secured Parties (as defined below).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Parent, Mirion Technologies (Synodys) SA and Mirion Technologies (IST France) SAS (together, the “French Borrowers”; and, collectively with the Parent the “Borrowers”), the various financial institutions and other Persons from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as the Domestic Administrative Agent, and the French Administrative Agent, the Lenders have agreed to make French Term Loans to the French Borrowers and to make Revolving Loans and Domestic Term Loans to the Parent;

WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to the making of the Loans under the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor is required to execute and deliver this Guaranty; and

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce the Lenders to make French Term Loans to the French Borrowers, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees, for the benefit of each of the French Administrative Agent and each French Term Lender (collectively, the “Secured Parties”), as follows:

ARTICLE I
GUARANTY PROVISIONS

SECTION 1.1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably

(a) guarantees the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of each French Borrower under the Loan Documents now or hereafter existing, whether for principal, interest (including interest accruing at the then applicable rate provided in the Credit Agreement after the occurrence of any Default set forth in clause (i) or (j) of Article VII of the Credit

Agreement, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed under applicable law following the institution of a proceeding under bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws), fees, reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit or otherwise, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses or otherwise (including all such amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §362(a), and the operation of Sections 502(b) and 506(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §502(b) and §506(b)) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”); and

provided that each Guarantor (other than the Parent) shall only be liable under this Guaranty for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering this Guaranty, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount. This Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and each Guarantor specifically agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, it shall not be necessary or required that any Secured Party exercise any right, assert any claim or demand or enforce any remedy whatsoever against any Loan Party or any other Person before or as a condition to the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 1.2. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Guarantor is made to the French Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the French Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the French Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization or similar debtor relief law or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

SECTION 1.3. Guaranty Absolute, etc. This Guaranty shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable guaranty of payment, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall remain in full force and effect until the date (the “Termination Date”) on which all Obligations (other than contingent indemnity and reimbursement obligations) have been paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor jointly and severally guarantees that the Obligations will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of each Loan Document under which they arise, regardless of any law, regulation

or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Secured Party with respect thereto. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be joint and several, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of any Loan Document;

(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Obligations, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any Obligation;

(e) any amendment to, rescission, waiver, or other modification of, or any consent to or departure from, any of the terms of any Loan Document;

(g) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Loan Party, any surety or any guarantor.

in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 1.6. Postponement of Subrogation, etc. Each Guarantor agrees that it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document to which it is a party, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Loan Party, in respect of any payment made, under any Loan Document or otherwise, until following the Termination Date. Any amount paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the Termination Date shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid and turned over to the French Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly endorsed in favor of the French Administrative Agent, if required), to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with Section 1.7; provided that if any Guarantor has made payment to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Obligations and the Termination Date has occurred, then at such Guarantor’s request, the French Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) will, at the expense of such Guarantor, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty) necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, at all times prior to the Termination Date, each Guarantor shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any Loan Party (or any of their respective successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts in respect of payments made under this Guaranty to any Secured Party.

SECTION 1.7. Payments; Application. Each Guarantor hereby agrees with each Secured Party as follows:

(a) Each Guarantor agrees that all payments made by such Guarantor hereunder will be made in euros to the French Administrative Agent, without setoff, counterclaim or other defense and in accordance with Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement, free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, each Guarantor hereby agreeing to comply with and be bound by the provisions of Section 2.17 of the

Credit Agreement in respect of all payments made by it hereunder and the provisions of which Sections are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Guaranty by this reference as if set forth herein; provided that references to any “Borrower” in such Sections shall be deemed to be references to each Guarantor, and references to “this Agreement” or “hereunder” in such Sections shall be deemed to be references to this Guaranty.

(b) All payments made hereunder shall be applied upon receipt to the Secured Obligations as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 1.8. German Limited Liability Companies.

(a) Any Guarantor which is constituted as a German limited liability company (GmbH) may refuse to make payments under this Guaranty, if and to the extent that:

(i) such payment would deprive the Guarantor of the liquidity necessary to fulfil its financial obligations that:

(x) exist as of the date on which such payment would otherwise be due; and

(y) the Guarantor cannot satisfy out of the disposal of fixed or current assets (to the extent that such assets are not necessary for the Guarantor’s business (nicht betriebsnotwendig) or the collection or non-recourse sale of its receivables); or

(ii) such payment would have the consequences that the Guarantor’s net assets would be less than its registered capital (Stammkapital) (Begründung einer Unterbilanz) or if, at such time the Guarantor’s assets are already less than its registered capital (Vertiefung einer Unterbilanz); or

(iii) subject to Section 1.8 (a)(i)(y) above, such payment would constitute an unlawful payment within the meaning of section 64 sentence 3 of the German Limited Liability Company Act (GmbHG).

(b) For purposes of making calculations pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 1.8,

(i) net assets and registered capital shall be based on the book values of the Guarantor’s assets and liabilities that would have to be disclosed in such Guarantor’s unconsolidated balance sheet (Jahresabschluss) drawn up in accordance with German GAAP as of the day after such payment would have been made;

(ii) net assets shall take into account all items to be shown in such German GAAP balance sheet;

(x) as assets under the captions reflected in § 266(2) A, B and C of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch) provided that claims of the Guarantor against any of its affiliated companies shall only be taken into account if and to the extent that this is permitted under the restrictions relating to the protection of liability capital of German limited liability companies under German law, in particular §§ 30 to 32 of the German Limited Liability Company Act (GmbHG) and the rules developed by the German Federal Supreme Court (Bundesgerichtshof) in this respect; and

(y) as liabilities under the captions reflected in § 266(3) B, C and D of the German Commercial Code less the amount of all liabilities towards any affiliated person (which shall be deemed to have been waived for that purpose) and less any Indebtedness unless permitted under the Credit Agreement; and

(iii) registered capital (Gezeichnetes Kapital) shall take into account all items to be shown in the Guarantor’s German GAAP balance sheet under the captions reflected in § 266(3) A of the German Commercial Code.

SECTION 1.9. French Limited Liability Companies.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the obligations and liabilities of any Foreign Guarantor which is constituted as a French limited liability company (société anonyme or société par actions simplifiée) hereunder shall not (i) extend, and shall not be construed as being extended, beyond a point where they would infringe article L. 225-216 of the French Code de commerce and (ii) cover, and shall not be construed as covering, any obligation or liability which, if incurred, would constitute a misuse of corporate assets as defined under articles L. 242-6-3° and L. 242-6-4° of the French Code de commerce or any other article or regulation to the same effect.

(b) The maximum liability of Dosimetry Acquisitions (France) SAS under this Guaranty shall be limited at any time to the greater of 85% of its total current assets calculated as of the date on which a payment under this Guaranty is demanded from such Dosimetry Acquisitions (France) SAS, as reduced by the aggregate amount previously paid by such French Guarantor under this Guaranty.

(c) The maximum liability of Mirion Technologies (MGPI) SA under this Guaranty shall be limited at any time to the greater of 60% of its total current assets calculated as of the date on which a payment under this Guaranty is demanded from such Mirion Technologies (MGPI) SA, as reduced by the aggregate amount previously paid by such French Guarantor under this Guaranty.

(d) Any Foreign Guarantor which is constituted as a French limited liability company shall, promptly following a request from the French Administrative Agent, provide to the French Administrative Agent with the aggregate value of the total current

assets of such Foreign Guarantor which is constituted as a French limited liability company and the amounts previously paid by such Foreign Guarantor which is constituted as a French limited liability company under this Guaranty.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the obligations and liabilities of any Foreign Guarantor which is constituted as a French limited liability company hereunder shall not cover, and shall not be construed as covering, any obligation or liability which, if incurred, would constitute a misuse of corporate assets as defined under articles L. 242-6 of the French Code de commerce or any other article or regulation to the same effect.

(d) Each Guarantor has knowledge of each other Loan Party’s financial condition and affairs and has adequate means to obtain from each Borrower and each such Loan Party on an ongoing basis information relating thereto and to such Loan Party’s ability to pay and perform the Obligations, and agrees to assume the responsibility for keeping, and to keep, so informed for so long as this Guaranty is in effect. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Parties shall have no obligation to investigate the financial condition or affairs of any Loan Party for the benefit of such Guarantor nor to advise such Guarantor of any fact respecting, or any change in, the financial condition or affairs of any Loan Party that might become known to any Secured Party at any time, whether or not such Secured Party knows or believes or has reason to know or believe that any such fact or change is unknown to such Guarantor, or might (or does) materially increase the risk of such Guarantor as guarantor, or might (or would) affect the willingness of such Guarantor to continue as a guarantor of the Obligations.

(e) It is in the best interests of each Guarantor to execute this Guaranty inasmuch as such Guarantor will, as a result of being a Subsidiary of the Parent, derive substantial direct and indirect benefits from (i) the French Term Loans made to the French Borrowers by the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement and (ii) in respect of Dosimetry Acquisitions (France) SAS, the Guarantee of the Obligations of Mirion Technologies (Synodys) SA, its direct Subsidiary, granted hereunder by each other Guarantor, and each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties are relying on this representation in agreeing to make Loans to the Borrower.

Amendments, etc. No amendment to or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor consent to any departure by any Guarantor from its obligations under this Guaranty, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the French Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement) and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

SECTION 3.6. Termination of Agreement; Release of Guarantor.

(b) A Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary.

(c) In addition to any release permitted by subsection (a) or (b), the French Administrative Agent may release any Guarantor from its obligations under this Guaranty with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders; provided that any release of all or substantially all Guarantors shall require the consent of all the Lenders.

SECTION 3.9. Severability. Any provision of this Guaranty held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 3.10. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. (a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

SECTION 3.12. Indemnity. Subject to the restrictions set forth under Sections 1.7, 1.8 and 1.9, each Guarantor shall indemnify each Secured Party, and each Related Party of any of the Secured Parties (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Guaranty, any Collateral Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Guaranteed Obligation or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any such Guarantor, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any such Guarantor, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

SECTION 3.13. Guarantor Intent. Without prejudice to the generality of Section 1.5, each Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this Guaranty shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Loan Documents and/or any facility or amount (other than the Domestic Term Loans and the Revolving Loans) made available under any of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3.14. Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement.

SECTION 3.15. Judgment Currency.

The obligation of each Guarantor in respect of any such sum due from it to the French Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a Currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Guaranty (the “Agreement Currency”), to the extent permitted by law, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the French Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the French Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the French Administrative Agent from any Guarantor in the Agreement Currency, such Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, and, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify the French Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the French Administrative Agent in such Currency, the French Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Guarantor (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

SECTION 3.16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THIS GUARANTY AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Guarantors have caused this Guaranty to be duly executed and delivered by their respective authorized officers as of the date first above written.

This Agreement secures with respect to each Grantor, and the Collateral of such Grantor is collateral security for, the prompt payment and performance in full when due, whether on a specified payment date, at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (including, without limitation, the payment of amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law) of all Obligations of such Grantor to any Secured Party now or hereafter existing under the Credit Agreement, this Agreement, the Guaranties, any promissory notes, and the other Loan Documents (in each case as amended or modified from time to time), in each case whether for principal (including reimbursement for amounts drawn or available to be drawn under Letters of Credit), interest (including, without limitation, interest that, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy would accrue on such obligations), fees, expenses, increased costs, indemnification or otherwise (any and all such obligations being the “Secured Obligations”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed by any Grantor to either Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, this Agreement, the Guaranty, any promissory notes, and the other Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceedings.

Section 4. Grantors Remains Liable.

Each Administrative Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice to any Grantor, to transfer to or to register in the name of the such Administrative Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Security Collateral and Account Collateral.

(b) It shall be a term and condition of the L/C Cash Collateral Account, except as otherwise provided by the provisions of Section 2.05(j) of the Credit Agreement and Section 19 hereof, that no amount shall be paid or released to or for the account of, or withdrawn by or for the account of, the Parent or any other Person (other than the Domestic Administrative Agent) from the L/C Cash Collateral Account.

(d) The pledge of the Pledged Debt, if any, pursuant to this Agreement creates a valid and first priority perfected security interest in the Pledged Debt, respectively, subject to Permitted Liens.

(e) The Pledged Debt constitutes, as of the Effective Date, all of the notes and instruments payable to or owned by such Grantor, except for notes and instruments received in the ordinary course of business or which such Grantor is not required to deliver to the Administrative Agents pursuant to Section 8(a)(iii) hereof or of which the Administrative Agents have not at any time requested possession and which are not a material portion of the Collateral either singly or in the aggregate.

(f) UCC financing statements describing the Collateral as “all personal property” have been filed in the UCC filing offices in the jurisdiction set forth in Schedule II under the heading “Jurisdiction of Organization” with respect to such Grantor (or such Grantor has authorized the filing of such UCC financing statements in such jurisdiction) with respect to the Collateral as to which UCC financing statements are required to be filed, so that the security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent they may be perfected by filing UCC financing statements in such jurisdictions, constitute (or in the case of any such UCC financing statements not yet filed, will constitute upon filing thereof) perfected security interests in and liens on the Collateral to the extent a security interest can be created therein under the Uniform Commercial Code, subject only to Permitted Liens. The Domestic Administrative Agent agrees that the Grantors shall not be required to perfect the security interest created hereunder in Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts to the extent any such Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts do not individually have a balance exceeding $50,000 or do not, in the aggregate, have a balance exceeding $250,000.

(i) No claim has been made that the use by the Grantors of any Intellectual Property owned by any Grantor for the provision of goods and services by any Grantor violates the

Intellectual Property of any third party, except to the extent that any such claim would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(j) All Deposit Accounts maintained by any Grantor with any bank or any other financial institution as of the date hereof are listed on Schedule IV hereto.

The information contained in Schedule I-B opposite the name of such Grantor is true and accurate in all respects as of the date hereof.

(m) None of the interests in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged hereunder are represented by a certificate or are “securities” within the meaning of Article 8 of the New York UCC, and each Grantor covenants and agrees that it shall at no time elect to treat any such interest as a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the New York UCC or issue any certificate representing such interest, unless it promptly pledges and delivers any such certificate to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms hereof in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

principal amount in excess of $10,000, deliver and pledge to the Domestic Administrative Agent hereunder such note or instrument or chattel paper duly indorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Domestic Administrative Agent (it being understood that no Grantor shall be obligated to deliver any such note or instrument or chattel paper in a principal amount less than $10,000); and (iii) execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or advisable, or as either Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve, with the required priority, the pledge, assignment and security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby.

During the continuation of an Event of Default, with respect to any Security Collateral in which any Grantor has any right, title or interest and that is not an Uncertificated Security, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor will notify each such issuer of Pledged Equity that such Pledged Equity is subject to the security interest granted hereunder.

(b) At any time after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, either Administrative Agent or its nominee may, upon notice, exercise all voting and similar rights at any meeting of any corporation or other entity issuing the shares or similar ownership interests included in the Pledged Equity and exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any such Pledged Equity as if it were the absolute owner thereof, including the right to receive dividends payable thereon, and the right to exchange, at its discretion, any and all of the Pledged Equity upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of the relevant corporation issuing such shares or similar ownership interests or upon the exercise by any such issuer of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such shares or similar ownership interests, and in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Equity with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as it may determine, all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Administrative Agents shall have no duty to exercise any of the aforesaid rights, privileges or options and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(c) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Administrative Agent shall have the right to require that all cash dividends and other distributions payable with respect to any part of the Investment Property in which a security interest is purported to be granted hereunder or the Pledged Equity be paid to the Domestic Administrative Agent to be held by such Administrative Agent as additional security hereunder until applied to the Secured Obligations.

(d) Upon any request by the Domestic Administrative Agent from time to time, each Grantor shall execute and deliver such control agreements and other documents and instruments (and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable financial institution or other party to do so), as either Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to further

perfect and preserve the security interests granted hereby in all Investment Property other than Investment Property not exceeding $50,000 in the aggregate.

Each agrees that all Deposit Accounts (other than Deposit Accounts having balances not exceeding $50,000 individually and Deposit Accounts having balances, in the aggregate, not exceeding $250,000) shall be under the exclusive dominion and control of the Domestic Administrative Agent and no withdrawals therefrom or other activities therein shall be made without the prior written consent and instruction of the Domestic Administrative Agent; provided that unless and until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Domestic Administrative Agent has given notice thereof to the Parent, each Administrative Agent hereby authorizes each Grantor to make such withdrawals and otherwise conduct activities in its Deposit Accounts. Upon any request by the Domestic Administrative Agent from time to time, each Grantor shall execute and deliver such blocked account and other control agreements and other documents and instruments as the Domestic Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to further perfect and preserve the security interests granted hereby in all Deposit Accounts.

Section 13. Insurance.

(a) Each Grantor (or Parent, on behalf of each Grantor) shall, at its own expense, maintain insurance with respect to the Equipment and Inventory of such Grantor with financially sound and reputable insurers in such amounts, against such risks and in such form as is consistent with past practice and as is usually carried by companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in the same general areas in which such Grantor operates. Each policy for property damage insurance shall provide for all losses to be paid directly to the Domestic Administrative Agent. Each such policy shall in addition (i) name such Grantor (or the Parent) and each Administrative Agent as insured parties thereunder (without any representation or warranty by or obligation upon either Administrative Agent) as their interests may appear, (ii) in the case of property damage insurance, contain the agreement by the insurer that any loss thereunder shall be payable to the Domestic Administrative Agent, (iii) not contain any provision providing for recourse against either Administrative Agent for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto and (iv) provide that at least 30 days’ prior written notice of cancellation or of lapse shall be given to the Administrative Agents by the insurer. Each Grantor (or the Parent) shall, if so requested by either Administrative Agent, deliver to either Administrative Agent original or duplicate policies of such insurance and, as often as either Administrative Agent may reasonably request, a report of a reputable insurance broker with respect to such insurance. Each Grantor (or the Parent) shall, if so requested by either Administrative Agent, deliver to either Administrative Agent original or duplicate policies of such insurance and, as often as either Administrative Agent may reasonably request, a report of a reputable insurance broker with respect to such insurance. Further, each Grantor (or the

Parent) shall, at the request of either Administrative Agent, duly exercise and deliver instruments of assignment of such insurance policies to comply with the requirements of this Section 13 and use reasonable commercial efforts to cause the insurers to acknowledge notice of such assignment.

(b) Reimbursement under any liability insurance maintained by such Grantor pursuant to this Section 13 may be paid directly to the Person who shall have incurred liability covered by such insurance. In case of any loss involving damage to Equipment or Inventory when subsection (c) of this Section 13 is not applicable, such Grantor shall make or cause to be made the necessary repairs to or replacements of such Equipment or Inventory, and any proceeds of insurance maintained by such Grantor pursuant to this Section 13 and received by either Administrative Agent shall be released to such Grantor as reimbursement for the costs of such repairs or replacements.

(c) At the request of either Administrative Agent, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all insurance payments in respect of such Equipment or Inventory shall be paid to and applied by the Domestic Administrative Agent as specified in Section 19(b) hereof.

Section 14. Place of Perfection; Records; Collection of Receivables; Intellectual Property.

(a) Each Grantor shall keep its jurisdiction of organization, its chief place of business and chief executive office and the office where it keeps its records concerning the Collateral at the location therefor specified on Schedule II or, upon prior written notice to the Administrative Agents, at such other locations in a jurisdiction where all actions required by Section 8 shall have been taken with respect to the Collateral. Each Grantor will hold and preserve such records and chattel paper and will permit representatives of either Administrative Agent at any time during normal business hours to inspect and make abstracts from such records and chattel paper.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (b), each Grantor shall continue to collect in accordance with its customary practice, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due such Grantor under the Receivables and, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, such Grantor shall have the right to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Account, or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor or obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon, all in accordance with its customary practices. In connection with such collections, each Grantor may take (and, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at either Administrative Agent’s direction, shall take) such commercially reasonable actions as such Grantor or either Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Receivables; provided, however, that each Administrative Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and upon written notice to such Grantor of its intention to do so, to notify the obligors under any Receivables of the assignment of such Receivables to such Administrative Agent and to direct such obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to such Administrative Agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such Receivables, and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such

Grantor might have done. After receipt by such Grantor or Grantors of the notice from either Administrative Agent referred to in the proviso to the preceding sentence, (i) all amounts and proceeds (including instruments received by such Grantor in respect of the Receivables) shall be received in trust for the benefit of either Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the applicable Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied as provided by Section 19(b) and (ii) such Grantor shall not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable, release wholly or partly any obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon.

Section 15. Transfers and Other Liens. Except as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement, no Grantor shall (i) sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral except to the extent permitted under the Credit Agreement, or (ii) create or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral of such Grantor except for the pledge, assignment and security interest created under this Agreement and other Liens permitted under the Credit Agreement.

Section 16. Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints each Administrative Agent such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in either Administrative Agent’s discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument that such Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

(a) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the Domestic Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13;

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

(c) to receive, indorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and Chattel Paper, in connection with clause (a) or (b) above; and

(d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that either Administrative Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Administrative Agents with respect to any of the Collateral.

Section 17. Administrative Agents May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, either Administrative Agent, upon written notice, if practicable, to such Grantor or the Parent, may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of such Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor and the Parent under Section 20(b).

Section 18. Administrative Agents’ Duties. The powers conferred on each Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ interest in the

Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agents shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. Each Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property and such care and custody would not constitute gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

Section 19. Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a) Either Administrative Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York at such time (the “Uniform Commercial Code”) (whether or not the Uniform Commercial Code applies to the affected Collateral) and also may (i) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of either Administrative Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by either Administrative Agent and make it available to either Administrative Agent at a place to be designated by either Administrative Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agents’ offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the applicable Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Administrative Agent shall give the applicable Grantors at least 10 business days’ written notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made and each Grantor agrees that such notice shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agents shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Either Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

(b) All cash proceeds received by either Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of such Administrative Agent, be held by such Administrative Agent as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Administrative Agents pursuant to Section 20) in whole or in part by either Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations in such order as the Administrative Agents shall elect. Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by either Administrative Agent and remaining after payment in full of all the Secured Obligations shall be promptly paid over to the Parent or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

(d) Either Administrative Agent may, without notice to any Grantor except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations against the L/C Cash Collateral Account or any part thereof.

Section 20. Taxes.

(a) Each Grantor shall pay (i) all Taxes, assessments and other charges of governmental authorities imposed upon any of the Collateral before any material penalty or interest accrues thereon, and (ii) all claims (including, without limitation, claims for labor, services, materials and supplies) for sums materially adversely affecting the Collateral, which have become due and payable and which by law have or may become a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) upon any of the Collateral prior to the time when any material penalty or fine shall be incurred with respect thereto, provided, that no such taxes, assessments and charges of governmental authorities referred to in clause (i) above or claims referred to in clause (ii) above need to be paid if being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted and enforcement thereof is stayed and if a reserve or other appropriate provision required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made therefor and if, at the request of either Administrative Agent, it posts a bond or other form of indemnity satisfactory to such Administrative Agent in the amount of such contested taxes, assessments and charges plus any applicable interest and penalties.

Section 21. Security Interest Absolute. The obligations of each Grantor under this Agreement are independent of the Secured Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Grantor to enforce this Agreement, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Parent or whether the Parent is joined in any such action or actions. All rights of the Administrative Agents and the pledge and security interest hereunder, and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Secured Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise;

(c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Secured Obligations;

(d) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Secured Obligations or any other assets of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries;

(e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; or

(f) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, such Grantor or a third party grantor of a security interest.

Section 22. Amendments: Waivers; Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each Administrative Agent and each Grantor, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that any amendment to this Agreement that is in substantially the same form as Exhibit A hereto shall be effective when signed by only the Administrative Agents and the Additional Grantor (as defined therein). No failure on the part of either Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

Section 23. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications provided to either Administrative Agent at its address or facsimile number set forth in the Credit Agreement and to any Grantor shall be in writing or by facsimile and addressed, delivered or transmitted to such party at its address or facsimile number set forth on Schedule V hereto or at such other address or facsimile number as may be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties. Any notice, if mailed and properly addressed with postage prepaid or if properly addressed and sent by pre-paid courier service, shall be deemed given when received; any notice, if transmitted by facsimile, shall be deemed given when transmitted.

Section 24. Continuing Security Interest; Assignments under the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until all Commitments have terminated, all Letters of Credit have expired or been cash-collateralized, the Loans have been repaid in full and all other amounts then due and payable under the Loan Documents have been paid in full, (b) be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agents hereunder, to the benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective permitted successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitations all or any portion of its Commitment, the Loans owing to it and the Notes, if any, held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 9.04 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 25. Termination; Release. (a) When all Commitments have terminated, all Letters of Credit have expired or been cash-collateralized, the Loans have been repaid in full and all other amounts then due and payable under the Loan Documents have been paid in full, the security interest granted hereby shall automatically terminate and all rights to the Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof shall revert to the applicable Grantor. At any time before the Liens granted hereunder by the Parent terminate, either Administrative Agent may, at the written request of the Parent, i) release any Collateral (but not all or substantially all the Collateral) with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders or ii) release all or substantially all the Collateral with the prior written consent of all the Lenders. Upon the termination of any such security interest, or upon either Administrative

Agent’s release of any of the Collateral, each Administrative Agent shall promptly return to the applicable Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, such of the Collateral (and, in the case of a release, such of the released Collateral) held by such Administrative Agent as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof. Each Administrative Agent will, at such Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent such other documents as any Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release, as the case may be.

(b) Upon any sale or other transfer by any Grantor of any Collateral that is permitted under the Credit Agreement to any Person that is not a Grantor, the security interest granted hereby in such Collateral shall be automatically released.

Section 26. Governing Law; Terms.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, except as otherwise required by mandatory provisions of law and except to the extent that the validity or perfection of the security interest hereunder, or remedies hereunder, in respect of any particular Collateral are governed by the laws of a jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

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

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

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 23. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 27. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 28. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 29. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE GRANTORS, EACH ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE ACTIONS OF THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Grantor has caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by its officer thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.
