financial position not related to this Agreement, such Lender shall, in determining the amount necessary to compensate it under this Section, attempt in good faith to take account of the relative contributions of such obligations hereunder and such other developments or change in its financial position to such reduction.

6
Loan Documents under Applicable Laws (including, without limitation, any statute, treaty, ruling, determination or regulation) in effect on the Closing Date for such Lender (or such later date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder) or on the date, if any, on which such Lender changes any applicable Lending Office by designating a different applicable Lending Office (other than pursuant to Section 4.10.7), but not excluding any withholding taxes payable solely as a result of (1) any change in such laws occurring after the Closing Date (or such later date on which such Lender becomes a
Lender hereunder) or after the date of designation of such new Lending Office, as the case may be, or (2) the addition of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to Section 2.11.1(a), (iii) any branch profits tax imposed by the United States of America or any similar tax imposed by any other jurisdiction, and (iv) any U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed under FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).

to comply with the requirements of Section 4.10.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.10.1, a Credit Party incorporated in France shall not be required to make any increased payments in respect of any tax deduction on account of tax imposed by France on a payment made to a Lender if such tax deduction is imposed solely because this payment is made to an account opened in the name of or for the benefit of that Lender in a financial institution situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction.”

7
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Parent Borrower and the
Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iv), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.”

“Pay and discharge, and cause each Restricted Subsidiary to pay and discharge, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits, or upon any properties belonging to it, prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto (other than penalties in the nature of interest), and all lawful claims which, if unpaid, might become a lien or charge upon any properties of the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary;
provided, however, that neither the Parent Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary shall be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim if (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and against which it is maintaining adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP or (ii) the nonpayment of all such taxes, assessments, charges, levies and claims in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.”

Schedule 1.1(d)
Mandatory Costs Rate
1.
|
The Mandatory Cost Rate 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 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 Rate will be calculated by the 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 Lending Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the 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 Lending Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of Loans made from that Lending Office.
|
4.
|
The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Lending Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows:
|
(a)
|
in relation to a Sterling Loan:
|
AB + C(B - D) + E x 0.01 | per cent. per annum | |
100 - (A + C) |
(b)
|
in relation to a Loan in any currency other than Sterling:
|
E x 0.01 | per cent. per annum. | |
300 |
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 Percentage, the Mandatory Cost Rate and the additional rate of interest specified in Section 4.1.3, if applicable) 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 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 Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.
|
5.
|
For the purposes of this Schedule:
|
(a)
|
“Reference Banks” means Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association or such other comparable banks as may be appointed by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Parent Borrower.
|
(b)
|
“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;
|
(c)
|
“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;
|
(d)
|
“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
|
(e)
|
“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.
|
6.
|
In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. 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.
|
7.
|
If requested by the Administrative Agent, the Reference Banks shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the 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.
|
8.
|
Each Lender shall supply any information required by the 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 Lending Office; and
|
(b)
|
any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.
|
Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.
9.
|
The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the 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 Lending Office in the same jurisdiction as its Lending Office.
|
10.
|
The 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 above is true and correct in all respects.
|
11.
|
The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost Rate 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 above.
|
12.
|
Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost Rate, 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 hereto.
|
13.
|
The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Parent Borrower and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule 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 such parties.
