(B) Automatic Conversion and Continuation. Floating Rate Loans shall continue as Floating Rate Loans unless and until such Floating Rate Loans are converted into Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Eurocurrency Rate Loans in Dollars shall continue as Eurocurrency Rate Loans in Dollars until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be automatically converted into Floating Rate Loans unless the applicable Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent notice in accordance with Section 2.9(D) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Rate Loans continue as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan. Unless a Borrowing/Election Notice shall have timely been given in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.9, Eurocurrency Rate Advances in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall automatically continue as Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one (1) month.

(C) No Conversion Post-Default; Limited Conversion Post-Unmatured Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.9(A) or Section 2.9(B), (x) no Loan may be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan (except with the consent of the Required Lenders) when any Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) no Loan may be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan with an Interest Period greater than one month (except with the consent of the Required Lenders) when any Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing.

(D) Borrowing/Election Notice. Subject to clause (B) above, each Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Borrowing/Election Notice of each conversion of a Floating Rate Loan into a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or continuation of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan not later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time) (x) three (3) Business Days prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, with respect to any Loan to be converted or continued as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan in Dollars, and (y) four (4) Business Days prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation with respect to any Loan in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars to be converted or continued as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan to be continued and made to a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, specifying: (i) the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) of such conversion or continuation; (ii) the amount and Type of the Loan to be converted or continued; and (iii) the amount of Eurocurrency Rate Loan(s) into which such Loan is to be converted or continued, the Agreed Currency, and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

2.10 Default Rate. 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, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section, (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to Floating Rate Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section and (iii) in the case of the fee described in Section 3.8(A), 2% plus the then Applicable L/C Fee Percentage.

2.11 Method of Payment. (A) All payments of principal, interest, fees, commissions and L/C Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim (unless indicated otherwise in Section 2.14(E)), in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent (i) at the Administrative Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIV with respect to Advances or other Obligations denominated in Dollars and (ii) at the Administrative Agent’s applicable Eurocurrency Payment Office with respect to any Advance or other Obligations denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars or payments made by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, or at any other Lending Installation of the Administrative Agent specified in writing by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Borrower, by 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) or, with respect to payments covered by clause (ii), 1:00 p.m. local time in the city of the applicable Eurocurrency Payment Office on the date when due and shall be made ratably among the Lenders (unless such amount is not to be shared ratably in accordance with the terms hereof). Each Advance shall be repaid or prepaid in the Agreed Currency in which it was made in the amount borrowed and interest payable thereon shall also be paid in such currency. Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds which the Administrative Agent received at its address specified pursuant to Article XIV or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Administrative Agent from such Lender. Any payment owing by a Borrower to a Lender shall be deemed to have been paid to such Lender by such Borrower upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such payment from such Borrower. Each Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge the account of such Borrower maintained with Xxxxx Fargo for each payment of principal, interest, fees, commissions and L/C Obligations as it becomes due hereunder; provided, that the Administrative Agent promptly notifies the Borrower thereof. Each reference to the

Administrative Agent in this Section 2.11 shall also be deemed to refer, and shall apply equally, to each Issuing Bank, in the case of payments required to be made by a Borrower to any Issuing Bank pursuant to Article III.

(B) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Advance in any currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such Agreed Currency with the result that different types of such Agreed Currency (the “New Currency”) are introduced and the type of currency in which the Advance was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the applicable Borrower is not able to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by such Borrower hereunder in such currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent in such amount and such type of the New Currency or Dollars as shall be equivalent to the amount of such payment otherwise due hereunder in the Original Currency. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Advance in any currency other than Dollars, the applicable Borrower is not able to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in the type of currency in which such Advance was made because of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulation, then such Advance shall instead be repaid when due in Dollars in a principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such Advance.

2.12 Evidence of Debt.

(A) Loan Account. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts (a “Loan Account”) evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(B) Register. The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.3(D) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period, if any, 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, (iii) the effective date and amount of each Assignment Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and the parties thereto pursuant to Section 13.3, (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof, and (v) all other appropriate debits and credits as provided in this Agreement, including, without limitation, all fees, charges, expenses and interest.

(C) Entries in Loan Account and Register. The entries made in the Loan Account, the Register and the other accounts maintained pursuant to subsections (A) or (B) of this Section shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, gross negligence or willful misconduct, unless the applicable Borrower objects to information contained in the Loan Accounts, the Register or the other accounts within forty-five (45) days of such Borrower’s receipt of such information; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(D) Notes Upon Request. Any Lender may request that the Loans made by it each be evidenced by a promissory note in substantially the form of Exhibit J to evidence such Lender’s Revolving Loans. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such a promissory note for such Loans payable to such Lender. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 13.3) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein.

2.13 Telephonic Notices. Each Borrower authorizes the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to extend Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of such Borrower pursuant to a telephonic notice provided to the Administrative Agent under Section 2.1(B). Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation, signed by an Authorized Signer (or such other Person designated in writing to the Administrative Agent by an Authorized Signer so long as such other Person is also permitted to make such delivery under such Borrower’s organizational documents), of each telephonic notice. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error, gross negligence or willful misconduct. In case of disagreement concerning such notices, if the Administrative Agent has recorded telephonic borrowing notices, such recordings will be made available to each Borrower upon such Borrower’s request therefor.

2.14 Promise to Pay; Interest and Unused Fees; Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis; Taxes.

(A) Promise to Pay. Each Borrower unconditionally promises to pay when due the principal amount of each Loan incurred by it and all other Obligations incurred by it, and to pay all unpaid interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(B) Interest Payment Dates. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Loan shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the date hereof, upon any prepayment whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise). Interest accrued on each Fixed-Rate Loan shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which such Fixed-Rate Loan is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Fixed-Rate Loan having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest accrued on the principal balance of all other Obligations shall be payable in arrears (i) on each Payment Date, commencing on the first such Payment Date following the incurrence of such Obligations, (ii) upon repayment thereof in full or in part, and (iii) if not theretofore paid in full, at the time such other Obligations become due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(i) The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, from and after the date of this Agreement until the date on which the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be terminated in whole, an unused fee accruing at the rate of the then Applicable Unused Fee Percentage, on the average daily excess of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment over the Dollar Amount of the outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations (excluding any drawn Swing Line Loans). All such unused fees payable under this clause (C)(i) shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date occurring after the date of this Agreement (with the first such payment being calculated for the period from the Closing Date and ending on September 30, 2019, and, in addition, on the date on which the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be terminated in whole.

(ii) The Company agrees to pay the fees set forth in the Fee Letters at the times and in the amounts set forth therein.

(D) Interest and Fee Basis; Applicable Eurocurrency Margin, Applicable Floating Rate Margin, Applicable L/C Fee Percentage and Applicable Unused Fee Percentage.

(i) Interest on all Eurocurrency Rate Loans and on all fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year (except for Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in British Pounds Sterling or Canadian Dollars, which shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-, or when appropriate 366-, day year). Interest on all Floating Rate Loans shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-, or when appropriate 366-, day year. Interest shall be payable for the day an Obligation is incurred but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to 2:00 p.m. (local time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on a Loan or any payment of any other Obligations shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest, fees and commissions in connection with such payment.

(ii) The Applicable Eurocurrency Margin, Applicable Floating Rate Margin, Applicable L/C Fee Percentage and Applicable Unused Fee Percentage shall be determined on the basis of the then applicable Pricing Grid Leverage Ratio as described in this Section 2.14(D)(ii), from time to time by reference to the following table:


Applicable Margin	Level I Status (Pricing Grid Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 1.25 to 1.0)	Level II Status (Pricing Grid Leverage Ratio is greater than 1.25 to 1.0 and less than or equal to 1.75 to 1.0)	Level III Status (Pricing Grid Leverage Ratio is greater than 1.75 to 1.0 and less than or equal to 2.25 to 1.0)	Level IV Status (Pricing Grid Leverage Ratio is greater than 2.25 to 1.0 and less than or equal to 2.75 to 1.0)	Level V Status (Pricing Grid Leverage Ratio is greater than 2.75 to 1.0 and less than or equal to 3.50 to 1.0)	Level VI Status (Pricing Grid Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.50 to 1.0)
Eurocurrency Margin and L/C Fee Percentage	0.875%	1.00%	1.125%	1.25%	1.50%	1.75%
Unused Fee Percentage	0.125%	0.15%	0.165%	0.175%	0.20%	0.225%
Floating Rate Margin	0%	0%	0.125%	0.25%	0.50%	0.75%

Upon receipt of the financial statements delivered (or deemed delivered) pursuant to Sections 7.1(A)(i) and (ii), as applicable, the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin, the Applicable Floating Rate Margin, the Applicable L/C Fee Percentage and Applicable Unused Fee Percentage shall be adjusted, such adjustment being effective five (5) Business Days following the day such financial statements and compliance certificates are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(A); provided, that if the Company shall not have timely delivered its financial statements and compliance certificates in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 7.1(A), and such failure continues for five (5) days after notice from the Administrative Agent to the Company, then, at the discretion of the Required Lenders, commencing on the date upon which such financial statements and compliance certificates should have been delivered and continuing until five (5) days after such financial statements and compliance certificates are actually delivered (or deemed delivered), it shall be assumed for purposes of determining the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin, the Applicable Floating Rate Margin, Applicable L/C Fee Percentage and Applicable Unused Fee Percentage that the Leverage Ratio was greater than 3.50 to 1.0 and Level VI pricing shall be applicable.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from the Closing Date through the fifth (5th) Business Day following the day financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(A) for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2019, the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin, the Applicable Floating Rate Margin, the Applicable L/C Percentage and the Applicable Unused Fee Percentage shall be determined based upon a Leverage Ratio equal to Level IV.

(E) Taxes.

(i) Any and all payments by the Borrowers hereunder (whether in respect of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, fees, assessments, duties, charges or withholdings or any interest, penalties or liabilities with respect thereto imposed by any Governmental Authority including those arising after the date hereof as a result of the adoption of or any

change in any law, treaty, rule, regulation, guideline or determination of a Governmental Authority or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority but excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, Excluded Taxes (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, fees, assessments, duties, charges, withholdings, and liabilities which the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines to be applicable to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Revolving Loan Commitments, the Loans or the Letters of Credit being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by law or requested by any Governmental Authority to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14(E)) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. If any Tax, including, without limitation, any withholding tax, of the United States of America or any other Governmental Authority shall be or become applicable (y) after the date of this Agreement, to such payments by such Borrower made to the Lending Installation or any other office that a Lender may claim as its Lending Installation, or (z) after such Lender’s selection and designation of any other Lending Installation, to such payments made to such other Lending Installation, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to make, fund and maintain its Loans through another Lending Installation of such Lender in another jurisdiction so as to reduce such Borrower’s liability hereunder, if the making, funding or maintenance of such Loans through such other Lending Installation of such Lender does not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, otherwise adversely and materially affect such Loans, or obligations under the Revolving Loan Commitments of such Lender.

(ii) In addition, the Company agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder, from the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Revolving Loan Commitments, the Loans or the Letters of Credit (other than Excluded Taxes, collectively, the “Other Taxes”).

(iii) Each Borrower indemnifies each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority on amounts payable under this Section 2.14(E)) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest, and

expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to any additional amount payable to any Lender or the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.14(E) submitted to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent (if a Lender is so submitting) by such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall show in reasonable detail the amount payable and the calculations used to determine such amount and shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto. With respect to such deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes and to confirm that all such Taxes have been paid to the appropriate Governmental Authorities, the applicable Borrower shall promptly (and in any event not later than thirty (30) days after receipt) furnish to each Lender and the Administrative Agent such certificates, receipts and other documents as may reasonably be required (in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or the Administrative Agent) to establish any tax credit to which such Lender or the Administrative Agent may be entitled. In the event such Lender or the Administrative Agent receives any such tax credit, such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall pay to the applicable Borrower such amount (if any) not exceeding the increased amount paid by such Borrower to, or on behalf of, such Lender or the Administrative Agent that is allocable to such increased amount. Any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender requesting compensation under this Section 2.14(E) shall use its reasonable efforts to notify the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in writing of the event giving rise to such demand for compensation not more than ninety (90) days following the date upon which the responsible account officer for the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender knows of such event. Such written demand shall be rebuttably presumed correct for all purposes. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent demands compensation under this Section 2.14(E) more than ninety (90) days following the date upon which a responsible account officer for such Lender or the Administrative Agent knows that interest, penalties or other additions to Taxes or Other Taxes have begun to accrue with respect to which such Lender or the Administrative Agent is entitled to compensation under this Section 2.14(E), then any interest, penalties or other additions to Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to the period prior to the ninety (90) day period immediately preceding the date on which such Lender or the Administrative Agent provided such notice and demand for compensation shall be excluded from the indemnity obligations of the Borrowers under this Section 2.14(E).

(iv) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower, such Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(v) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 2.14(E) shall survive the payment in full of all Obligations

hereunder, the termination of the Letters of Credit and the termination of this Agreement for a period of one year.

(vi) Each Lender (including any Replacement Lender or Purchaser) that is not created or organized under the laws of the United States of America or a political subdivision thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or before the Closing Date, or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender pursuant to Section 13.3 hereof (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only for so long as such Non-U.S. Lender is legally entitled to do so), either (1) two (2) duly completed copies of either (A) IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to a tax treaty, or (B) IRS Form W-8ECI, or in either case an applicable successor form; or (2) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not legally entitled to deliver the forms listed in clause (vi)(1), (x) a certificate of a duly authorized officer of such Non-U.S. Lender to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (such certificate, an “Exemption Certificate”) and (y) two (2) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E or applicable successor form. Each such Lender further agrees to deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent from time to time a true and accurate certificate executed in duplicate by a duly authorized officer of such Lender in a form satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, before or promptly upon the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent certificate previously delivered by it to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.14(E)(vi). Further, each Lender which delivers a form or certificate pursuant to this clause (vi) covenants and agrees to deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of such form, for so long as this Agreement is still in effect, another such certificate and/or two (2) accurate and complete original newly-signed copies of the applicable form (or any successor form or forms required under the Code or the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder).

If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to United States federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company 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 Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s

obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.14(E)(vi), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender shall promptly furnish to the Company and the Administrative Agent such additional documents as may be reasonably required by the Company or the Administrative Agent to establish any exemption from or reduction of any Taxes or Other Taxes required to be deducted or withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.14(E), the Borrowers shall not be obligated to gross up any payments to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(E)(i), or to indemnify any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(E)(iii), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes to the extent imposed as a result of (x) the failure of such Lender to deliver to the Borrowers the form or forms and/or an Exemption Certificate, as applicable to such Lender, pursuant to Section 2.14(E)(vi), (y) such form or forms and/or Exemption Certificate not establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or the information or certifications made therein by the Lender being untrue or inaccurate on the date delivered in any material respect, or (z) the Lender designating a successor Lending Installation at which it maintains its Loans which has the effect of causing such Lender to become obligated for tax payments in excess of those in effect immediately prior to such designation; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall be obligated to gross up any payments to any such Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(E)(i), and to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(E)(iii), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes if (x) any such failure to deliver a form or forms or an Exemption Certificate or the failure of such form or forms or exemption certificate to establish a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or inaccuracy or untruth contained therein resulted from a change in any applicable statute, treaty, regulation or other applicable law or any interpretation of any of the foregoing occurring after the date such Lender became a party hereto, which change rendered such Lender no longer legally entitled to deliver such form or forms or Exemption Certificate or otherwise ineligible for a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax, or rendered the information or the certifications made in such form or forms or Exemption Certificate untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, (ii) the redesignation of the Lender’s Lending Installation was made at the request of the Company or (iii) the obligation to gross up payments to any such Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(E)(i), or to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(E)(iii), is with respect to a Purchaser that becomes a Purchaser as a result of an assignment made at the request of the Company.

(vii) Upon the request, and at the expense of the applicable Borrower, each Lender to which such Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to this Section 2.14(E), shall reasonably afford such Borrower the opportunity to contest, and shall reasonably cooperate with such Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Tax giving rise to such payment; provided, that (i) such Lender shall not be required to afford such Borrower the opportunity to so contest unless such Borrower shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender its obligation to pay such amounts pursuant to this Agreement; and (ii) such Borrower shall reimburse such Lender for its attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with such Borrower in contesting the imposition of such Tax; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be required to afford such Borrower the opportunity to contest, or

cooperate with such Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Taxes, if such Lender in good faith determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.

(viii) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in the rate of the imposition, deduction or withholding of any Tax or Other Tax under the laws of the jurisdiction in which any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized or engaged in business, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) shall, at the request of the Company, deliver to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or the relevant Governmental Authority, in the manner and at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Company (such request to be at least 60 days prior to the due date required for submission thereof), such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company (and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as applicable)) as will permit such payments to be made without the imposition, deduction or withholding of such Tax or Other Tax or at a reduced rate, provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in its reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice its commercial or legal position or require disclosure of information it considers confidential or proprietary.

(ix) If the 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 the Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14(E), it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.14(E) giving rise to such refund), net of all expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person.

(x) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, fees, assessments, duties, charges, withholdings, and any interest, penalties or liabilities with respect thereto (but, in the case of any Taxes or Other Taxes, only to the extent that the Borrowers have

not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of each Borrower to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such amounts were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.14(E)(x) shall be paid within thirty (30) days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(xi) For purposes of determining withholding taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

2.15 Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing/Election Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the interest rate and Agreed Currency applicable to each Eurocurrency Rate Loan promptly upon determination of such interest rate and Agreed Currency and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate.

2.16 Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans or Letters of Credit at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender and may change its Lending Installation from time to time upon reasonable written notice thereof to the Company. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation. Each Lender may, by written or facsimile notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company, designate a Lending Installation through which Loans will be made by it and for whose account Loan payments and/or payments of L/C Obligations are to be made.

2.17 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless a Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment

by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day or (ii) in the case of payment by a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

2.18 Termination Date. This Agreement shall be effective until the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, until (A) all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been fully paid and satisfied in cash, (B) all financing arrangements among the Borrowers and the Lenders shall have been terminated and (C) all of the Letters of Credit shall have expired, been canceled, terminated or cash collateralized in accordance with Section 3.3(B) or Section 3.11, as applicable, all of the rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive.

2.19 Replacement of Certain Lenders. In the event a Lender (“Affected Lender”) shall: (i) be a Defaulting Lender, (ii) have requested compensation from a Borrower under Sections 2.14(E), 4.1 or 4.2 to recover Taxes, Other Taxes or other additional costs incurred by such Lender which are not being requested generally by the other Lenders, (iii) have delivered a notice pursuant to Section 4.3 claiming that such Lender is unable to extend Eurocurrency Rate Loans to a Borrower for reasons not generally applicable to the other Lenders, (iv) have invoked Section 10.2, or (v) failed to consent to a waiver or amendment hereto which requires the consent of each Lender or each Lender affected thereby and that has otherwise been consented to by the Required Lenders, then, in any such case, the applicable Borrower (or the Company on behalf of any Borrower) or the Administrative Agent may make written demand on such Affected Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent in the case of a demand by a Borrower and a copy to the applicable Borrower in the case of a demand by the Administrative Agent) for the Affected Lender to assign, and such Affected Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign pursuant to one or more duly executed Assignment Agreements five (5) Business Days after the date of such demand, to one or more financial institutions that comply with the provisions of Section 13.3(A) which the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall have engaged for such purpose (“Replacement Lender”), all of such Affected Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, its Revolving Loan Commitment, all Loans owing to it, all of its participation interests in existing Letters of Credit, and its obligation to participate in additional Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans hereunder) in accordance with Section 13.3. The Administrative Agent agrees, upon the occurrence of such events with respect to an Affected Lender and upon the written request of the applicable Borrower (or the Company on behalf of any Borrower), to use its reasonable efforts to obtain the commitments from one or more financial institutions to act as a Replacement Lender. The Administrative Agent is authorized to execute one or more of such assignment agreements as attorney-in-fact for any Affected Lender failing to execute and deliver the same within five (5) Business Days after the date of such demand. Further, with respect to such assignment the Affected Lender shall have concurrently received, in cash, all amounts due and owing to the Affected Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans owed to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon through the date of such assignment, amounts payable under Sections 2.14(E), 4.1, and 4.2 with respect to such Affected Lender and compensation payable under Section 2.14(C) in the event of any replacement of any Affected Lender under clause (ii) or clause (iii) of this Section 2.19; provided that upon such Affected Lender’s replacement, such Affected Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14(E), 4.1, 4.2, 4.4,

and 10.7, as well as to any fees accrued for its account hereunder and not yet paid, and shall continue to be obligated under Section 11.8 for such amounts, obligations and liabilities as are due and payable up to and including (but not after) the date such Affected Lender is replaced pursuant hereto. Upon the replacement of any Affected Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19, the provisions of Section 9.2 shall continue to apply with respect to Loans which are then outstanding with respect to which the Affected Lender failed to fund its Pro Rata Share and which failure has not been cured.

2.20 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main office in Charlotte, North Carolina on the Business Day preceding that on which the final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 12.2, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the applicable Borrower.

2.21 Market Disruption; Denomination of Amounts in Dollars; Dollar Equivalent of Reimbursement Obligations.

(A) Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in this Article II with respect to any Advance in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, if there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Advance any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the reasonable opinion of the Company, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders make it impracticable for the Eurocurrency Rate Loans comprising such Advance to be denominated in the Agreed Currency, specified by the applicable Borrower, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower, and the Lenders, and such Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall not be denominated in such currency but shall be made on such Borrowing Date in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice, as Floating

Rate Loans, unless the applicable Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day before such date that (i) it elects not to borrow on such date or (ii) it elects to borrow on such date in a different Agreed Currency, in which the denomination of such Loans would in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice.

(B) Calculation of Amounts. Except as set forth below, all amounts referenced in this Article II shall be calculated using the Dollar Amount determined based upon the Equivalent Amount in effect as of the date of any determination thereof; provided, however, that to the extent the applicable Borrower shall be obligated hereunder to pay in Dollars any Advance denominated in a currency other than Dollars, such amount shall be paid in Dollars using the Dollar Amount of the Advance (calculated based upon the Equivalent Amount in effect on the date of payment thereof) and in the event that the applicable Borrower does not reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are required to fund a purchase of a participation in such Advance, such purchase shall be made in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount of such Advance (calculated based upon the Equivalent Amount in effect on the date of payment thereof). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the full risk of currency fluctuations shall be borne by the Borrowers and each Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from and against any loss resulting from any borrowing denominated in a currency other than in Dollars and for which the Lenders are not reimbursed on the day of such borrowing as it relates to such Borrower’s respective obligations.

2.22 Increase of Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment; Incremental Term Loans. The Company may from time to time elect to increase the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and/or enter into one or more tranches of term loans (each an “Incremental Term Loan”), or any combination of such increases and Incremental Term Loans, in each case in a minimum aggregate amount of $25,000,000 and increments of $5,000,000 in excess thereof so long as, after giving effect thereto, (x) the aggregate amount of such increases and all such Incremental Term Loans does not exceed $500,000,000 and (y) the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment plus the amount of Incremental Term Loans does not exceed $1,500,000,000. The Company may arrange for any such increase or tranche to be provided by one or more Lenders agreeing to an increase in its existing Revolving Loan Commitment or to participate in such Incremental Term Loans, as the case may be (each such Lender, an “Increasing Lender”), or by one or more new banks, financial institutions or other entities (each such new bank, financial institution or other entity, an “Augmenting Lender”) agreeing to extend Revolving Loan Commitments or to participate in such Incremental Term Loans, as the case may be; provided that (i) each Augmenting Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank, (ii) no Augmenting Lender shall be the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company and (iii) (x) in the case of an Increasing Lender, the Company and such Increasing Lender execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit M-1 hereto, and (y) in the case of an Augmenting Lender, the Company and such Augmenting Lender execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit M-2 hereto. No consent of any Lender (other than the Lenders participating in the increase or any Incremental Term Loan) shall be required for any increase in Revolving Loan Commitments or Incremental Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.22. Increases and new Revolving Loan Commitments and Incremental Term

Loans created pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall become effective on the date agreed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the relevant Increasing Lenders or Augmenting Lenders, and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Revolving Loan Commitments (or in the Revolving Loan Commitment of any Lender) or tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall become effective under this paragraph unless, (i) on the proposed date of the effectiveness of such increase or Incremental Term Loans, (A) the conditions set forth in paragraphs (A) and (B) of Section 5.2 shall be satisfied or waived by the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by an Authorized Signer of the Company and (B) the Company shall be in compliance on a pro forma basis with the covenants contained in Section 7.4 and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date as to the organizational power and authority of the Borrowers to borrow hereunder after giving effect to such increase. On the effective date of any Incremental Term Loans being made, each relevant Increasing Lender and Augmenting Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent its Incremental Term Loan in immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent will promptly make the funds so received available to the Company. On the effective date of any increase in the Revolving Loan Commitments (i) each relevant Increasing Lender and Augmenting Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other Lenders, as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase and the use of such amounts to make payments to such other Lenders, each Lender’s portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of all the Lenders to equal its Pro Rata Share of such outstanding Revolving Loans, and (ii) the Borrowers shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Revolving Loans as of the date of any increase in the Revolving Loan Commitments (with such reborrowing to consist of the Types of Revolving Loans, with related Interest Periods if applicable, specified in a notice delivered by the applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.1(B)). The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued interest on the amount prepaid and, in respect of each Fixed Rate Loan, shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.4 if the deemed payment occurs other than on the last day of the related Interest Periods. The Incremental Term Loans (a) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Revolving Loans, (b) shall not mature earlier than the Revolving Loan Termination Date (but may have amortization prior to such date) and (c) shall be treated substantially the same as (and in any event no more favorably than) the Revolving Loans; provided that (i) the terms and conditions applicable to any tranche of Incremental Term Loans maturing after the Revolving Loan Termination Date may provide for material additional or different financial or other covenants or prepayment requirements applicable only during periods after the Revolving Loan Termination Date and (ii) the Incremental Term Loans may be priced differently than the Revolving Loans. Incremental Term Loans may be made hereunder pursuant to an amendment or restatement (an “Incremental Term Loan Amendment”) of this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrowers, each Increasing Lender participating in such tranche, each Augmenting Lender participating in such tranche, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Term Loan Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders (except to the extent required pursuant to Section 9.3), effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the

Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.22. Nothing contained in this Section 2.22 shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase its Revolving Loan Commitment hereunder, or provide Incremental Term Loans, at any time.

2.23 Subsidiary Borrowers and Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. So long as no Default or Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may from time to time add as a party to this Agreement (i) a wholly-owned Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary as a “Domestic Subsidiary Borrower” hereunder or (ii) a Foreign Subsidiary as a “Foreign Subsidiary Borrower” hereunder, each such joinder to be subject to (a) if such new Borrower is organized outside of an Agreed Jurisdiction, the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and one hundred percent (100%) of the Lenders, (b) the receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that such Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary would not, in its capacity as a Subsidiary Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder, be required by law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder by such Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender and that no other adverse tax, regulatory or other consequences would affect the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of such Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary’s or Foreign Subsidiary’s status as a Subsidiary Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower (and the Administrative Agent shall consider in making such determination any notice received from any Lender of any such adverse tax, regulatory or other consequences which would affect such Lender), (c) receipt by the Administrative Agent of a valid and enforceable amendment to this Agreement to the extent the Administrative Agent deems such amendment necessary or advisable in connection with such joinder, (d) the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent by such Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary of duly completed documentation pursuant to which such Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary shall agree to become a Subsidiary Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder and to perform, comply with and be bound by each of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Borrowers, with the written consent of the Company appearing thereon, which may be in the form of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, and (e) the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of each other instrument, document and agreement as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, including, without limitation, acceptable opinions of counsel. Upon satisfaction of all such conditions, such Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary shall for all purposes be a party hereto as a Subsidiary Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower as fully as if it had executed and delivered this Agreement. Concurrent with the addition of any Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary or Foreign Subsidiary of the Company as a Subsidiary Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, (i) the Company and each Domestic Subsidiary Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for all of the Obligations of the Company, each Subsidiary Borrower and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Loan Documents, provided, however, that the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers (including those Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers party hereto as of the Closing Date) shall not be liable for any Obligations other than each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s own Obligations (except with respect to Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx as described in Section 16.1), (ii) each Borrower shall be permitted to request Advances hereunder and (iii) all references herein to the “Borrower” shall be deemed to be references to the Borrower, each Subsidiary Borrower and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, individually and collectively. The joinder of any Foreign Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall also be subject to satisfaction of the

conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.3. No Lender will be required to hold any commitment or make any advance to an additional Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, including, without limitation, a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower organized in an Agreed Jurisdiction, if after the Closing Date the Lender has determined in good faith that such commitment or advance would violate Requirements of Law, and the Lender has notified the Administrative Agent and the Company of such determination prior to the joinder of the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that to the extent any Lender requests additional documentation and information (including, without limitation a Beneficial Ownership Certification) required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Patriot Act or the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the effective date of any new Foreign Subsidiary Borrower becoming party hereto (such date, the “Joinder Date”), the Company or such potential Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall provide such additional documentation and information to such Lender no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Joinder Date before such new Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be entitled to utilize the credit facilities provided for herein.

Upon the delivery by the Company of a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to any Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Subsidiary Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, and a party to this Agreement (except, with respect to Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, in respect of its guaranty obligations under Section 16.1 hereof so long as Xxxxxxxx Xxxx is a Borrower, unless Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx otherwise provides a separate Foreign Subsidiary Guaranty at the time of such termination). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Subsidiary Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Borrower shall be outstanding hereunder, provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate the right of such Subsidiary Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to make further Borrowings under this Agreement. As soon as practicable upon receipt of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall furnish a copy thereof to each Lender.

2.24 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 Revolving Loan Commitment (whether used or unused) of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(C);

(B) the Revolving Loan Commitment and Revolving Credit Obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including consent to any waiver, amendment or other modification pursuant to Section 9.3), provided, that this clause (B) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of (i) any increase or extension of the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Lender or (ii) any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of each Lender affected thereby pursuant to the first clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 9.3;

(i) all or any part of the Swing Line Exposure and L/C Obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Obligations plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure and L/C Obligations does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Loan Commitments; and

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the applicable Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swing Line Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks only, such Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.11 for so long as such L/C Obligations are outstanding;

(iii) if the Company cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Company shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.8 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations are cash collateralized;

(iv) if the L/C Obligations of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.8 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares; or

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations are neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all unused fees that would otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment that was utilized by such L/C Obligations) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.8 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Banks until and to the extent that such L/C Obligations are reallocated and/or cash collateralized;

(D) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Bank shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan, and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and such Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding L/C Obligations will be 100% covered by the Revolving Loan Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Company in accordance with Section 3.11, and participating interests in any such newly made Swing Line Loan or newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-

Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.24(C)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein);

(E) if (i) a Bankruptcy Event or Bail-In Action with respect to a Parent of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swing Line Bank or an Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swing Line Bank shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swing Line Bank or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swing Line Bank or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder;

(F) in the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company, the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Exposure and L/C Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share; and

(G) any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.1 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Bank hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the LC Exposure of the Issuing Banks with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 3.11; fourth, as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Unmatured Default exists), to the funding of any Loan or funded participation in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (A) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans and funded participations under this Agreement and (B) cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 3.11; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Bank as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Unmatured Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that

if (1) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (2) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Loan Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.24(C). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.24(G) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

ARTICLE III: THE LETTER OF CREDIT FACILITY

3.1 Obligation to Issue Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations, warranties and covenants of the Borrowers herein set forth, each Issuing Bank hereby agrees to issue for the account of the Borrowers through such Issuing Bank’s branches as it and the Borrower may jointly agree, one or more Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or, so long as such currency remains an Agreed Currency, euro, British Pounds Sterling, Yen, Canadian Dollars and Swiss Francs, in accordance with this Article III, from time to time during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the Business Day prior to the Termination Date.

3.2 Transitional Letters of Credit. Schedule 3.2 contains a schedule of certain letters of credit issued for the account of the Company prior to the Closing Date (the “Transitional Letters of Credit”). Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, from and after the Closing Date such letters of credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Article III.

3.3 Types and Amounts. No Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to and no Issuing Bank shall:

(A) issue (or amend) any Letter of Credit if on the date of issuance (or amendment), before or after giving effect to the Letter of Credit requested hereunder, (i) the Dollar Amount of the Revolving Credit Obligations at such time would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment at such time, (ii) the aggregate outstanding Dollar Amount of the L/C Obligations would exceed $50,000,000, or (iii) the aggregate outstanding Dollar Amount of L/C Obligations relating to Letters of Credit having expiration dates more than two (2) years after the date of issuance thereof exceeds $5,000,000; or

(B) issue (or amend) any Letter of Credit which has an expiration date later than the date which is the earlier of (x) two (2) years after the date of issuance thereof (provided, however, that an Issuing Bank may issue (or amend) a Letter of Credit with an expiration date up to five years after the date of issuance thereof if the requirements of Section 3.3(A)(iii) are met and such

expiration date does not run beyond the date contemplated in the following clause (y)) or (y) subject to the following sentence, five (5) Business Days immediately preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided, that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term or a two-year term (or longer term as contemplated above), as applicable, may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year, two-year or longer periods (which in no event shall extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, a Letter of Credit may have an expiry date that occurs within five (5) Business Days before the Revolving Credit Termination Date or after the Revolving Credit Termination Date so long as, in each case, the Administrative Agent receives from the applicable Borrower, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the earlier of the applicable Letter of Credit’s expiry date and the Revolving Credit Termination Date, an amount in immediately available funds equal to at least one hundred two percent (102%) of the LC Obligations owing under or in connection with such Letter of Credit. Any such collateral shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a separate account appropriately designated as a cash collateral account in relation to this Agreement and the Letters of Credit and retained by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks as collateral security for the Borrowers’ obligations in respect of this Agreement and such Letter of Credit. Amounts remaining in any cash collateral account established pursuant to this Section 3.3 which are not applied to reimburse an Issuing Bank for amounts actually paid or to be paid by such Issuing Bank in respect of a Letter of Credit or otherwise applied to the Obligations shall be returned to the applicable Borrower within one (1) Business Day (after deduction of the Administrative Agent’s expenses incurred in connection with such cash collateral account).

3.4 Conditions. In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, the obligation of an Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit is subject to the satisfaction in full of the following conditions:

(A) the applicable Borrower shall have delivered to the applicable Issuing Bank (and, if the Issuing Bank is a Lender other than Xxxxx Fargo, with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at such times and in such manner as such Issuing Bank may reasonably prescribe, a request for issuance of such Letter of Credit in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto (each such request a “Request For Letter of Credit”), duly executed applications for such Letter of Credit, and such other documents, instructions and agreements as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof (all such applications, documents, instructions, and agreements being referred to herein as the “L/C Documents”), and the proposed Letter of Credit shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank as to form and content; it being agreed that any Letter of Credit application submitted by the Company through any Issuing Bank’s approved internet portal or approved electronic intake system shall be deemed to meet all of the requirements of this Section 3.4(A) with no further action being required by the applicable Borrower; and

(B) as of the date of issuance no order, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain the applicable Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit and no law, rule or regulation applicable to such Issuing Bank and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from a Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from the issuance of Letters of Credit generally or the issuance of that Letter of Credit.

(C) In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any application for a Letter of Credit, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

3.5 Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(A) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article III and provided that the applicable conditions set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 hereof have been satisfied, the applicable Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of the applicable Borrower in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices and, in this connection, such Issuing Bank may assume that the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.2 hereof have been satisfied unless it shall have received notice to the contrary from the Administrative Agent or a Lender or has knowledge that the applicable conditions have not been met.

(B) The applicable Issuing Bank shall give the Administrative Agent written notice, or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of the issuance of a Letter of Credit; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not result in any liability on the part of such Issuing Bank.

(C) No Issuing Bank shall extend or amend any Letter of Credit unless the requirements of this Section 3.5 are met as though a new Letter of Credit was being requested and issued.

3.6 Letter of Credit Participation. On the date of this Agreement with respect to the Letters of Credit identified on Schedule 3.2 and immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit hereunder, each Lender with a Pro Rata Share shall be deemed to have automatically, irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the applicable Issuing Bank an undivided interest and participation in and to such Letter of Credit, the obligations of the applicable Borrower in respect thereof, and the liability of such Issuing Bank thereunder (collectively, an “L/C Interest”) in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount available for drawing under such Letter of Credit multiplied by such Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Each Issuing Bank will notify each Lender promptly upon presentation to it of an L/C Draft or upon any other draw under a Letter of Credit. On or before the Business Day on which an Issuing Bank makes payment of each such L/C Draft or, in the case of any other draw on a Letter of Credit, on demand by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank, each Lender shall make payment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds in the Agreed Currency in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Dollar Amount of such payment or draw. The obligation of each Lender to reimburse the Issuing Banks under this Section 3.6 shall be unconditional, continuing, irrevocable and absolute. In the event that any Lender fails to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount due under this Section 3.6, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the principal and interest otherwise payable to such Lender hereunder until the Administrative Agent receives such payment from such Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied; provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall relieve such Lender of its obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for such amount in accordance with this Section 3.6.

3.7 Reimbursement Obligation. Each Borrower agrees unconditionally, irrevocably and absolutely to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, the

amount of each advance drawn under or pursuant to any Letter of Credit or an L/C Draft related thereto and issued on its behalf (such obligation of each Borrower to reimburse the Administrative Agent for an advance made under any Letter of Credit or L/C Draft being hereinafter referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation” with respect to such Letter of Credit or L/C Draft), each such reimbursement to be made by such Borrower no later than the Business Day on which the applicable Issuing Bank makes payment of each such L/C Draft or, if such Borrower shall have received notice of a Reimbursement Obligation later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time, or local time in the city of the applicable Eurocurrency Payment Office if such L/C is issued to the account of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower), on any Business Day or on a day which is not a Business Day, no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time, or local time in the city of the applicable Eurocurrency Payment Office if such L/C is issued to the account of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower), on the immediately following Business Day or, in the case of any other draw on a Letter of Credit, the date specified in the demand of such Issuing Bank. If any Borrower at any time fails to repay a Reimbursement Obligation pursuant to this Section 3.7, such Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to borrow Revolving Loans from the Lenders, as of the date of the advance giving rise to the Reimbursement Obligation, equal in amount to the Dollar Amount of the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation. Such Revolving Loans shall be made as of the date of the payment giving rise to such Reimbursement Obligation, automatically, without notice and without any requirement to satisfy the conditions precedent otherwise applicable to an Advance of Revolving Loans. Such Revolving Loans shall initially, until converted, constitute a Floating Rate Advance, the proceeds of which Advance shall be used to repay such Reimbursement Obligation. If, for any reason, any Borrower fails to repay a Reimbursement Obligation on the day such Reimbursement Obligation arises and, for any reason, the Lenders are unable to make or have no obligation to make Revolving Loans, then such Reimbursement Obligation shall bear interest from and after such day, until paid in full, at the interest rate otherwise applicable thereto plus two percent (2.0%) per annum.

3.8 Letter of Credit Fees. Each Borrower agrees to pay:

(A) quarterly, in arrears, on each Payment Date occurring after the date of this Agreement (with the first such payment being calculated for the period from the Closing Date and ending on September 30, 2019, and, in addition, on the date on which the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be terminated in whole), to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable L/C Fee Percentage on the average daily outstanding Dollar Amount available for drawing under each standby Letter of Credit;

(B) quarterly, in arrears, on each Payment Date occurring after the date of this Agreement (with the first such payment being calculated for the period from the Closing Date and ending on September 30, 2019, and, in addition, on the date on which the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be terminated in whole), to the applicable Issuing Bank, a letter of credit fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum on the average daily outstanding face amount available for drawing under each standby Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank; and

(C) to the applicable Issuing Bank, all customary fees and other issuance, amendment, cancellation, document examination, negotiation, transfer and presentment expenses and related charges in connection with the issuance, amendment, cancellation, presentation of L/C Drafts,

negotiation, transfer and the like customarily charged by such Issuing Banks with respect to standby Letters of Credit, payable at the time of invoice of such amounts.

3.9 Issuing Bank Reporting Requirements. In addition to the notices required by Section 3.5(B), each Issuing Bank shall, no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following the last day of each month, provide to the Administrative Agent, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, schedules, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, showing the date of issue, account party, Agreed Currency and amount in such Agreed Currency, expiration date and the reference number of each Letter of Credit issued by it outstanding at any time during such month and the aggregate amount payable by the applicable Borrower during such month. In addition, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall furnish to the Administrative Agent copies of any Letter of Credit and any application for or reimbursement agreement with respect to a Letter of Credit to which the Issuing Bank is party and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent. Upon the request of any Lender, the Administrative Agent will provide to such Lender information concerning such Letters of Credit.

3.10 Indemnification; Exoneration.

(A) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Article III, each Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender from and against any and all liabilities and costs which the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit other than, in the case of the applicable Issuing Bank, to the extent resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) the failure of the applicable Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”).

(B) As among the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks, each Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of such Letter of Credit by, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, subject to the provisions of the Letter of Credit applications and Letter of Credit reimbursement agreements executed by each Borrower at the time of request for any Letter of Credit, neither the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall be responsible (in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection therewith, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction): (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply duly with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, or other similar form of teletransmission or otherwise; (v) for errors in interpretation of

technical trade terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (viii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, including, without limitation, any Governmental Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any Issuing Bank’s rights or powers under this Section 3.10.

(C) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit or any related certificates shall not, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, put the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any resulting liability to the applicable Borrower or relieve the applicable Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.

(D) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 3.10 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder, the termination of the Letters of Credit and the termination of this Agreement.

3.11 Cash Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any application for a Letter of Credit, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default upon the request of the Required Lenders or upon payout or termination of this Agreement in full in cash, each Borrower shall, on the Business Day that it receives Administrative Agent’s demand or as required pursuant to Section 9.1, deliver to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, cash, or other collateral of a type satisfactory to the Required Lenders, having a value, as determined by such Lenders, equal to one hundred two percent (102%) of the aggregate Dollar Amount of its outstanding L/C Obligations; provided that, upon the occurrence of a Default under Section 8.1(F) or 8.1(G), such obligation to post cash collateral shall be deemed automatically effective. Any such collateral shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a separate interest-bearing account appropriately designated as a cash collateral account in relation to this Agreement and the Letters of Credit and retained by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks as collateral security for the applicable Borrower’s obligations in respect of this Agreement and each of the Letters of Credit. Such amounts shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Banks for drawings or payments under or pursuant to Letters of Credit, or if no such reimbursement is required, to payment of such of the other Obligations as the Administrative Agent shall determine. Amounts remaining in any cash collateral account established pursuant to this Section 3.11 which are not applied to reimburse an Issuing Bank for amounts actually paid or to be paid by such Issuing Bank in respect of a Letter of Credit shall be returned to the applicable Borrower within one (1) Business Day (after deduction of the Administrative Agent’s expenses incurred in connection with such cash collateral account).

ARTICLE IV: CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

4.1 Yield Protection. If any Change in Law:

(A) subjects the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any applicable Lending Installation or any Issuing Bank to any tax, levy, impost, deduction, fee, assessment, duty, charge or withholding, and any interest, penalties or liabilities with respect thereto, (excluding (1) Taxes, which are governed by Section 2.14(E), (2) amounts included in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, (3) Connection Income Taxes and (4) any other taxes for which such Lender has been reimbursed by such Borrower), on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or

(B) imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender, any applicable Lending Installation or any Issuing Bank (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Rate Loans) with respect to its Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans, L/C Interests or the Letters of Credit, or

(C) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender, any applicable Lending Installation or any Issuing Bank of making, funding or maintaining its Revolving Loan Commitment, the Loans, the L/C Interests or the Letters of Credit or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender, any applicable Lending Installation or any Issuing Bank in connection with Loans or Letters of Credit, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any Issuing Bank to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of its Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans or the L/C Interests held or interest received by it or by reference to the Letters of Credit;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to that Lender or Issuing Bank of making, renewing or maintaining its Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans, L/C Interests, or Letters of Credit or to reduce any amount received under this Agreement, then, within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Borrower of written demand by such Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 4.5, the applicable Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Issuing Bank that portion of such increased expense incurred or reduction in an amount received which the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Issuing Bank determines is attributable to making, funding and maintaining its Loans, L/C Interests, Letters of Credit and its Revolving Loan Commitment; provided, however, that such Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.1 incurred more than 90 days prior to the date of the relevant Lender’s demand therefor.

4.2 Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing by an amount deemed material by such Lender or Issuing Bank the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Loans or Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the

applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the applicable Borrower of written demand by such Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 4.5, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the applicable Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any such increased cost or reduction incurred more than 90 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank demands, or notifies such Borrower of its intention to demand, compensation therefor, provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then such 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

4.3 Availability of Types of Advances.

(A) Subject to Section 4.6 hereof, if at the time that the Administrative Agent shall seek to determine the relevant Screen Rate on the Quotation Day for any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan the applicable Screen Rate shall not be available for such Interest Period and/or for the applicable currency with respect to such Eurocurrency Rate Loan for any reason and the Administrative Agent shall determine that it is not possible to determine the Interpolated Rate (which conclusion shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error), then (i) if such Loan shall be requested in Dollars, then such Loan shall be made as a Floating Rate Loan at the Floating Rate and (ii) if such Loan shall be requested in any non-Dollar currency, the Eurodollar Base Rate shall be equal to the rate determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion after consultation with the Company and consented to in writing by the Required Lenders (the “Alternative Rate”); provided, however, that until such time as the aforesaid rate shall be determined and so consented to by the Required Lenders, Loans shall not be available in such non-Dollar currency.

(B) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Fixed Rate Loan (i) any Lender determines that maintenance of its Fixed-Rate Rate Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or directive, whether or not having the force of law, or (ii) subject to Section 4.6, the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Base Rate for a Loan in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period, or (iii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the interest rate applicable to Fixed-Rate Loans does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost of making or maintaining such an Advance, then the Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of the affected Type of Advance and, in the case of any occurrence set forth in clause (i), require any Advances of the affected Type to be repaid or converted into another Type.

4.4 Funding Indemnification. Subject to Section 2.4(B), if any payment of a Fixed-Rate Loan occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment, or otherwise, or a Fixed-Rate Loan is not made on the date specified by the applicable Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, such

Borrower shall indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the Fixed-Rate Loan.

4.5 Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. If reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Fixed-Rate Loans to reduce any liability of any Borrower to such Lender under Sections 4.1 and 4.2 or to avoid the unavailability of a Type of Advance under Section 4.3, so long as such designation is not materially disadvantageous, in the judgment of the Lender, to such Lender. Any demand for compensation pursuant to Section 2.14(E) or this Article IV shall be in writing and shall state the amount due, if any, under Section 2.14(E), 4.1, 4.2, or 4.4 and shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive, and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Fixed-Rate Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Fixed-Rate Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurocurrency Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. The obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 2.14(E), 4.1, 4.2, or 4.4 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

4.6 Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.

(A) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Company may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR for Dollars with a Benchmark Replacement (and, for the avoidance of doubt, upon such Benchmark Transition Event or Early Opt-in Election, the Eurocurrency Rate for non-Dollar LIBOR Quoted Currencies shall be determined in accordance with Section 4.3(A)). Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Company so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 4.6 will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(B) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(C) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the

implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 4.6, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 4.6.

(D) Upon the Company’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Company may revoke any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan based upon LIBOR, a conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans based upon LIBOR to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Company will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for or conversion to (x) Floating Rate Loans, if such request is made with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, or (y) Loans bearing interest based upon the Alternative Rate consistent with Section 4.1(a), if such request is made with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in non-Dollar currencies. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the Eurocurrency Base Rate will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate.

ARTICLE VI: REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement will require the Company or any Subsidiary to disclose, permit the inspection, examination or making copies of, or discussion of, any document, information or other matter, or provide information (i) that constitutes non-financial trade secrets or non-financial proprietary information, (ii) in respect of which disclosure is prohibited by law or binding agreement or (iii) that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege or constitutes attorney work product; provided that in the event that the Company does not provide information that otherwise would be required to be provided hereunder in reliance on the exclusions in this sentence relating to violation of any obligation of confidentiality, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice to the Administrative Agent promptly upon obtaining knowledge that such information is being withheld (but solely if providing such notice would not violate such obligation of confidentiality). The Company shall keep and maintain, in all material respects, proper books of record and account on a consolidated basis in which entries in material conformity with Agreement Accounting Principles shall be made of all dealings and transactions in relation to their respective businesses and activities. The Company shall cause each of its Significant Subsidiaries to keep and maintain, in all material respects, proper books of record and account.

operate and comply with the foregoing, as applicable, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(H) Maintenance of Property. The Company shall cause all material property used in the conduct of its business or the business of any Significant Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in adequate condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and shall cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7.2(H) shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of such property if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary.

(I) Environmental Compliance. The Company and its Significant Subsidiaries shall comply with all Environmental, Health or Safety Requirements of Law, except where noncompliance would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(i) The Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Revolving Loans for general corporate purposes and ongoing working capital needs of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, to consummate Permitted Acquisitions and to make capital expenditures).

(ii) No Borrower will request any Advance or Letter of Credit, and no Borrower shall use, and the Company shall procure that its Subsidiaries and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use, the proceeds of any Advance, Incremental Term Loan or Letter of Credit (x) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (y) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, to the extent such activities, businesses or transaction would be prohibited by Sanctions if conducted by a corporation incorporated in the United States or in a European Union member state or (z) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto. This Section 7.2(J)(ii) shall not apply for the benefit of any Credit Party that qualifies as a resident party domiciled in Germany (Inländer) within the meaning of section 2 paragraph 15 of the German Foreign Trade Act (Außenwirtschaftsgesetz) or any director, officer or employee thereof to the extent that it would result in a violation of, or conflict with, section 7 German Foreign Trade Regulation (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung), any provision of Council Regulation (EC) 2271/96 or any similar applicable anti-boycott law or regulation on the part of that Credit Party or any director, officer or employee

thereof (for the avoidance of doubt, without prejudice to the general applicability of Council Regulation (EC) 2271/96).

(J) Margin Regulations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, shall use all or any portion of the proceeds of any credit extended under this Agreement to purchase or carry Margin Stock in such amounts as would cause this Agreement to be deemed a “purpose credit” for purposes of Regulation T.

The Company will not, and will not permit any Significant Subsidiary to, create or otherwise cause to become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction of any kind on the ability of any Significant Subsidiary to pay dividends or make any other distribution on its stock, or make any other Restricted Payment, pay any Indebtedness or other Obligation owed to the Company or any other Subsidiary, make loans or advances or other Investments in the Company or any other Subsidiary, or sell, transfer or otherwise convey any of its property to the Company or any other Subsidiary other than pursuant to (i) applicable law, (ii) this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (iii) the 2013 Senior Notes, the 2016 Senior Notes, the 2018 Senior Notes and any other senior (unsubordinated) credit, loan or borrowing facility or senior (unsubordinated) note purchase agreement similar in form and substance to any of the foregoing and in a principal amount equal to or greater than $50,000,000, so long as the creditors under such facility or note purchase agreement agree to be bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, (iv) restrictions imposed by the holder of a Lien permitted by Section 7.3(C), (v) restrictions and conditions on the foregoing existing as of the Closing Date, (vi) customary

The Leverage Ratio shall be calculated, in each case, determined as of the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company based upon (a) for Net Indebtedness, Net Indebtedness as of the last day

of each such fiscal quarter; and (b) for EBITDA, the actual amount for the Last Twelve-Month Period, provided, that the Leverage Ratio shall be calculated, with respect to Permitted Acquisitions, on a pro forma basis using historical financial statements and containing reasonable adjustments satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, broken down by fiscal quarter in the Company’s reasonable judgment.

(B) Minimum Consolidated Net Worth. The Company shall not permit its Consolidated Net Worth at any time to be less than the sum of (i) $1,156,000,000 (the applicable “Base Amount”) plus (ii) on the last Business Day of each fiscal year, beginning with the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019, the sum of fifty percent (50%) of Net Income (if positive) for such fiscal year, plus (iii) fifty percent (50%) of the net cash proceeds resulting from the issuance by the Company of any Capital Stock, other than shares of Capital Stock issued pursuant to employee stock option or ownership plans; provided, that the effect of adjustments (not in excess of the Maximum Adjustment Amount) in the accumulated other comprehensive earnings accounts of the Company and its Subsidiaries, shall in each case be excluded in calculating the Company’s Consolidated Net Worth. For purposes of this Section 7.4(B), “Maximum Adjustment Amount” means 10% of the Base Amount. The Company’s compliance with this covenant shall be calculated and tested as of the end of each fiscal quarter.

ARTICLE IX: ACCELERATION, DEFAULTING LENDERS; WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

9.1 Termination of Revolving Loan Commitments; Acceleration. If any Default described in Section 8.1(F) or 8.1(G) occurs with respect to any Borrower, the Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred, all obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation of any Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit hereunder shall automatically terminate, the Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender and the Borrowers shall be and become thereby unconditionally obligated, without any further notice, act or demand, to pay to the Administrative Agent the cash collateral required pursuant to Section 3.11. If any other Default occurs, the Required Lenders may terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, or declare the Termination Date to have occurred and the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrowers expressly waive.

9.2 Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of the applicable Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Loan or issuance of such Letter of Credit shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 9.3, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders until the Obligations have been paid in full in cash.

9.3 Amendments. Subject to the provisions of this Article IX and except as otherwise provided in Section 2.22 with respect to an Incremental Term Loan Amendment, the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and the Borrowers may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the Borrowers hereunder or waiving any Default hereunder; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of each Lender (which is not a Defaulting Lender) affected thereby (provided, that a Defaulting Lender shall be permitted to consent to any increase or extension of its Revolving Loan Commitment or any amendment, waiver or modification which would otherwise require its consent pursuant to clauses (ii) and (iii) below):

(i) Postpone or extend such Lender’s Revolving Loan Termination Date or any other date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans (other than prepayments thereunder), the Reimbursement Obligations or any

103

fees or other amounts payable to such Lender or any modifications of the provisions relating to prepayments of Loans and other Obligations;

(ii) Reduce the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Obligations, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon; provided, however, that a waiver of the application of the default rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof shall only require the approval of the Required Lenders; or

(iii) Increase the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment of any Lender hereunder, increase any Lender’s Pro Rata Share or increase the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s Loans;

provided, further, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of each Lender (which is not a Defaulting Lender):

(i) Reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders or any other percentage of Lenders specified to be the applicable percentage in this Agreement to act on specified matters or amend the definitions of “Required Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share” (it being understood that, solely with the consent of the parties prescribed by Section 2.22 to be parties to an Incremental Term Loan Amendment, Incremental Term Loans may be included in the determination of Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Revolving Loan Commitments and the Revolving Loans are included on the Closing Date);

(ii) Permit any Borrower to assign its rights under this Agreement;

(iii) Other than pursuant to a transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, release the Company or any guarantor from its obligations under Section 16.1, the Domestic Subsidiary Guaranty or the Foreign Subsidiary Guaranty;

(iv) Amend Section 12.2 or 12.3 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby (it being acknowledged and agreed that any Lender’s decision to extend the maturity date for any of its Loans pursuant to an amend and extend transaction and any technical amendments described in the last paragraph of this Section 9.3 shall not require the consent of any other Lender); or

(v) Amend the definition of “Agreed Currencies” or “Agreed Jurisdictions” or amend Section 2.23, this Section 9.3 or Section 12.3.

No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to (a) the Administrative Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, (b) Swing Line Loans shall be effective without the written consent of the Swing Line Bank, and (c) any Issuing Bank shall be effective without the written consent of such Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent may waive payment of the fee required under Section 13.3(C) without obtaining the consent of any of the Lenders.

104

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, the applicable extending Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank may enter into an amendment to or amendment and restatement of this Agreement to implement an extension of the Revolving Loan Termination Date (an “Extension”), but without the consent of any other Lenders (except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to the preceding provisos in this Section 9.3), to effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Company, to implement the terms of any such Extension, including any amendments necessary to establish extended Revolving Loan Commitments as a new tranche of Revolving Loan Commitments, and such other technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Company in connection with the establishment of such new tranche (including to preserve the pro rata treatment of the extended and non-extended tranches and to provide for the reallocation of Revolving Credit Obligations upon the expiration or termination of the commitments under any Class or tranche).

ARTICLE X: GENERAL PROVISIONS

provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnitee, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent they arise from (i) the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of, or intentional breach of its material duties and obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee (or any of its controlled Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and partners, in each case to the extent involved in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), in each case, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) any disputes solely among Indemnitees and not arising out of any act or omission of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any proceeding against the Administrative Agent solely in its capacity as such or in fulfilling its role as Administrative Agent, or against any Arranger solely in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an Arranger). If the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, each Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.

(C) Waiver of Certain Claims. The Borrowers further agree to assert no claim against any of the Indemnitees on any theory of liability seeking consequential, special, indirect, exemplary or punitive damages.

10.14 Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Borrower agrees that any and all claims of such Borrower against any of its Affiliates that is a guarantor with respect to any indebtedness of any guarantor to such Borrower (“Intercompany Indebtedness”), any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, or against any of its properties, including, without limitation, claims arising from liens or security interests upon property, shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Obligations; provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing each Borrower may make loans to and receive payments in the ordinary course with respect to such Intercompany Indebtedness from each such guarantor to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by a Borrower upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness in contravention of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or after the occurrence of a Default, including, without limitation, an event described in Section 8.1(F) or (G), prior to the satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and the termination of all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document or Hedging Agreement among the Borrowers and the Lenders (and their Affiliates), each Borrower shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Obligations and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of such Persons, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the applicable Borrower where necessary), for application to any of the Obligations, due or not due,

110

and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the applicable Borrower as the property of the holders of the Obligations. If the applicable Borrower fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of its officers or employees are irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Borrower agrees that until the Obligations (other than the contingent indemnity obligations) have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied and all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document or Hedging Agreement among the Borrowers and the Lenders (and their Affiliates) have been terminated, such Borrower will not assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Administrative Agent) any claim such Borrower has or may have against any guarantor.

10.15 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Act. Each Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.

10.16 No Duties Imposed on Co-Syndication Agents, Co-Documentation Agents or Arrangers. None of the Persons identified on the cover page to this Agreement, the signature pages to this Agreement or otherwise in this Agreement as a “Co-Syndication Agent,” “Co-Documentation Agent” or “Arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, if such Person is a Lender, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Persons identified on the cover page to this Agreement, the signature pages to this Agreement or otherwise in this Agreement as a “Co-Syndication Agent,” “Co-Documentation Agent” or “Arranger” shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary duty to or fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

10.17 Accounting. Except as provided to the contrary herein, all accounting terms and other applicable definitions, covenants and provisions herein shall be interpreted and all accounting determinations and other applicable calculations hereunder shall be made in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles. If any changes in generally accepted accounting principles are hereafter required or permitted and are adopted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with the agreement of its independent certified public accountants and such changes result in a change in the method of calculation of any of the financial covenants, tests, restrictions or standards herein or in the related definitions or terms used therein (“Accounting Changes”), the parties hereto agree, at the Company’s request, to enter into negotiations, in good faith, in order to amend such provisions in a credit neutral manner so as to reflect equitably such changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ financial condition shall be the same after such changes as if such changes had not been made; provided, however, until such provisions are amended in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, no Accounting Change shall be given effect in such calculations and all financial reports (excluding in any event financial statements) required

111

to be delivered hereunder shall be prepared in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles without taking into account such Accounting Changes. In the event such amendment is entered into, all references in this Agreement to Agreement Accounting Principles shall mean generally accepted accounting principles as of the date of such amendment. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to (i) any election under Accounting Standards Codification 000-00-00 (previously referred to as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 159) (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at “fair value”, as defined therein and (ii) any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position APB 14-1 to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all obligations of any Person that are or would be characterized as operating lease obligations in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles as in effect on December 14, 2018 (whether or not such operating lease obligations were in effect on such date) shall continue to be accounted for as operating lease obligations (and not Capitalized Lease Obligations) for purposes of the Loan Documents regardless of any change in Agreement Accounting Principles following December 14, 2018 (or any change in the implementation in Agreement Accounting Principles for future periods that are contemplated as of December 14, 2018) that would otherwise require such obligations to be recharacterized (on a prospective or retroactive basis or otherwise) as Capitalized Lease Obligations, and all calculations and deliverables under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made or delivered, as applicable, in accordance with the foregoing.

10.18 Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(A) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the

112

event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(B) As used in this Section 10.18, the following terms have the following meanings:

(i) “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

(ii) “Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(a) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §252.82(b);

(b) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §47.3(b); or

(iii) “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

(iv) “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12. X.X.X 0000(x)(0)(X).

10.19 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(A) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(B) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

113

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Revolving Loan Commitments;

(B) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (A) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (A), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrowers or any other member of the Obligor Group, that none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger nor any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Revolving Loan Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

ARTICLE XI: THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

11.1 Appointment; Nature of Relationship. Xxxxx Fargo is appointed by the Lenders as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article XI. Notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Administrative Agent,” it is expressly understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement and that the Administrative Agent is merely acting as the representative of the Lenders with only those duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual representative, the Administrative Agent (i) does not assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders, (ii) is a “representative” of the Lenders within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and (iii) is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders, for itself and on behalf of its affiliates, agrees to assert no claim against the Administrative Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each Lender waives.

11.2 Powers. The Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no implied duties or fiduciary duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to

115

take any action hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents required to be taken by the Administrative Agent.

11.3 General Immunity. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrowers, the Lenders or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such action or inaction is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person.

11.4 No Responsibility for Loans, Creditworthiness, Recitals, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article V, except receipt of items required to be delivered solely to the Administrative Agent; (iv) the existence or possible existence of any Default or (v) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties herein or in any of the other Loan Documents for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, legality, enforceability, collectibility, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the financial condition of any guarantor of any or all of the Obligations, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

11.5 Action on Instructions of Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders in the event that and to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires such), and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders and on all owners of Loans. Upon receipt of any such instructions from the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders in the event that and to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires such), the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to act on behalf of the full principal amount of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

11.6 Employment of Administrative Agent and Counsel. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees, agents, and attorney-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to the Administrative Agent’s duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

116

11.7 Reliance on Documents; Counsel. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and, in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent, which counsel may be employees of the Administrative Agent.

11.8 The Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent ratably in proportion to its respective Pro Rata Shares (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by the Borrowers for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms thereof or of any such other documents, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is paid or reimbursed by any Borrower or found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent.

11.9 Rights as a Lender. With respect to its Revolving Loan Commitment, Loans made by it, and Letters of Credit issued by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document as any Lender or Issuing Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders”, “Issuing Bank” or “Issuing Banks” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in which such Person is not prohibited hereby from engaging with any other Person.

11.10 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, either Co-Syndication Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Company and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, either Co-Syndication Agent or any other Lender based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking the action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent for any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

117

11.11 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrowers and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrowers and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, each such successor Administrative Agent shall be subject to approval by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such successor Administrative Agent shall be a Lender and shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon 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 and under the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may not be removed without its prior written consent.

11.12 No Duties Imposed Upon Arrangers or Agents. No Person identified on the cover page to this Agreement, the signature pages to this Agreement or otherwise in this Agreement as an “Arranger”, a “Co-Syndication Agent” or a “Co-Documentation Agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than if such Person is a Lender, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no Person identified on the cover page to this Agreement, the signature pages to this Agreement or otherwise in this Agreement as an “Arranger”, a “Co-Syndication Agent” or a “Co-Documentation Agent” shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary duty to or fiduciary relationship with any Lender. In addition to the agreement set forth in Section 11.10, each of the Lenders acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Person so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

11.13 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Unmatured Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Company referring to this Agreement describing such Default or Unmatured Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

11.14 Delegation to Affiliates. The Borrowers and the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates. Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents, and employees) which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to which the Administrative Agent is entitled under terms of this Agreement.

118

11.15 Intercreditor Agreement and Subsidiary Guaranties. Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into and remain subject to each of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Domestic Subsidiary Guaranty and the Foreign Subsidiary Guaranty on behalf and for the benefit of such Lender and to take all actions contemplated by such documents, including, without limitation, all enforcement actions. Each Lender agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement.

ARTICLE XII: SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

12.1 Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Default occurs and is continuing, any Indebtedness from any Lender to any Borrower (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the Obligations, or any part hereof, shall then be due.

12.2 Ratable Payments; Failure to Fund. (A) If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Loans (other than payments received pursuant to Sections 2.14(E), 4.1, 4.2, or 4.4) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Loans held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion of Loans. If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Obligations or such amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to the obligations owing to them. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

(B) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.2(D), 2.17, 3.6, 3.7 or 11.8, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Bank or an Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

12.3 Application of Payments. If any Borrower, prior to the occurrence of a Default, has remitted a payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender without indicating the Obligation to be reduced thereby, or at any time after the occurrence of a Default, subject to the provisions of Section 9.2, the Administrative Agent shall, unless otherwise specified at the direction of the Required Lenders which direction shall be consistent with the last sentence of this Section 12.3, apply all payments and prepayments in respect of any Obligations in the following order:

119

(A) first, to pay interest on and then principal of any portion of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or any Borrower;

(B) second, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees, expenses, reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent;

(C) third, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees, expenses, reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the issuer(s) of Letters of Credit;

(D) fourth, to pay interest due in respect of Swing Line Loans;

(E) fifth, to pay interest due in respect of Loans (other than Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations);

(F) sixth, to the ratable payment or prepayment of principal outstanding on Swing Line Loans;

(G) seventh, to the ratable payment or prepayment of principal outstanding on Loans (other than Swing Line Loans), Reimbursement Obligations and Hedging Obligations;

(H) eighth, to provide required cash collateral, if required pursuant to Section 3.11; and

(I) ninth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations.

Unless otherwise designated (which designation shall only be applicable prior to the occurrence of a Default) by the applicable Borrower, all principal payments in respect of Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) shall be applied first, to repay outstanding Floating Rate Loans, and then to repay outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans with those Eurocurrency Rate Loans which have earlier expiring Interest Periods being repaid prior to those which have later expiring Interest Periods. The order of priority set forth in this Section 12.3 and the related provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Swing Line Bank and the issuer(s) of Letters of Credit as among themselves. Upon written notice to the Borrowers, the order of priority set forth in clauses (C) through (I) of this Section 12.3 may at any time and from time to time be changed by the Required Lenders without consent of or approval by the Company, or any other Person; provided, that the order of priority of payments in respect of Swing Line Loans may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Swing Line Bank. The order of priority set forth in clauses (A) and (B) of this Section 12.3 may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

12.4 Relations Among Lenders.

(A) Except with respect to the exercise of set-off rights of any Lender in accordance with Section 12.1, the proceeds of which are applied in accordance with this Agreement, and except as set forth in the following sentence, each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against the Company or any other obligor hereunder or with respect to any Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders or,

120

as may be provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, at the direction of the Administrative Agent.

(B) The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XIII: BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

13.1 Successors and Assigns; Designated Lenders.

(A) Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) none of the Borrowers shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender, (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3, and (iii) any transfer by Participants must be made in compliance with Section 13.2. Any attempted assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section 13.1 or Section 13.3 shall be null and void, unless such attempted assignment or transfer is treated as a participation in accordance with Section 13.2. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that clause (ii) of this Section 13.1 relates only to absolute assignments and this Section 13.1 does not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or assignment by any Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any promissory note issued hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank, (y) in the case of a Lender which is a Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any promissory note issued hereunder to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee or (z) any pledge or assignment by any Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any promissory note issued hereunder to direct or indirect contractual counterparties in interest rate swap agreements relating to the Loans, but in all cases excluding credit default swaps; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder unless and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 13.3. The Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Revolving Loan or which holds any promissory note issued hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person complies with Section 13.3; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person which made any Revolving Loan or which holds any promissory note issued hereunder to direct payments relating to such Revolving Loan or promissory note issued hereunder to another Person. Any assignee of the rights to any Revolving Loan or any promissory note issued hereunder agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Loan (whether or not a promissory note has been issued hereunder in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Loan.

121

(B) Designated Lenders.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 13.1(B), any Lender may from time to time elect to designate an Eligible Designee to provide all or any part of the Loans to be made by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement; provided that the designation of an Eligible Designee by any Lender for purposes of this Section 13.1(B) shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the execution by the parties to each such designation of an agreement in the form of Exhibit L hereto (a “Designation Agreement”) and the acceptance thereof by the Administrative Agent, the Eligible Designee shall become a Designated Lender for purposes of this Agreement. The Designating Lender shall thereafter have the right to permit the Designated Lender to provide all or a portion of the Loans to be made by the Designating Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the making of the Loans or portion thereof shall satisfy the obligations of the Designating Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan was made by the Designating Lender. As to any Loan made by it, each Designated Lender shall have all the rights a Lender making such Loan would have under this Agreement and otherwise; provided, (x) that all voting rights under this Agreement shall be exercised solely by the Designating Lender, (y) each Designating Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for its obligations under this Agreement, including the obligations of a Lender in respect of Loans made by its Designated Lender and (z) no Designated Lender shall be entitled to reimbursement under Article IV hereof for any amount which would exceed the amount that would have been payable by the applicable Borrower to the Lender from which the Designated Lender obtained any interests hereunder. No additional promissory notes shall be required to be issued hereunder with respect to Loans provided by a Designated Lender; provided, however, to the extent any Designated Lender shall advance funds, the Designating Lender shall be deemed to hold the promissory notes issued hereunder in its possession as an administrative agent for such Designated Lender to the extent of the Loan funded by such Designated Lender. Such Designating Lender shall act as an administrative agent for its Designated Lender and give and receive notices and communications hereunder. Any payments for the account of any Designated Lender shall be paid to its Designating Lender as administrative agent for such Designated Lender and neither the Borrowers nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for any Designating Lender’s application of such payments. In addition, any Designated Lender may (1) with notice to, but without the consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, assign all or portions of its interests in any Loans to its Designating Lender or to any financial institution consented to by the Administrative Agent providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such Designated Lender and (2) subject to advising any such Person that such information is to be treated as confidential in accordance with Section 13.4, disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any guarantee, surety or credit or liquidity enhancement to such Designated Lender.

122

(ii) Each party to this Agreement hereby agrees that it shall not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Designated Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding or other proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law for one year and a day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any Designated Lender; provided that the Designating Lender for each Designated Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage and expense arising out of its inability to institute any such proceeding against such Designated Lender. This Section 13.1(B) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

13.2 Participations.

(A) Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Revolving Credit Obligations of such Lender, any promissory note issued hereunder held by such Lender, any Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of its Revolving Credit Obligations and the holder of any promissory note issued to it hereunder in evidence thereof for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.

(B) Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan or Revolving Loan Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of all of the Lenders pursuant to the terms of Section 9.3.

(C) Benefit of Certain Provisions. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 12.1 in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents, provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section 12.1 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant. The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided in Section 12.1, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 12.2 as if each Participant were a Lender. Each Borrower further agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article IV and Section 2.14(E) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.3, provided that (i) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Article IV or Section 2.14(E) than the Lender who sold the participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained such interest for its own account, unless the

123

sale of such interest to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of the applicable Borrower, and (ii) any Participant not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof agrees to comply with the provisions of Article IV and Section 2.14(E) to the same extent as if it were a Lender.

13.3 Assignments.

(A) Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities (but not natural persons or the Company or any Affiliate of the Company) (“Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. Such assignment shall be evidenced by an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit D or in such other form as may be agreed to by the parties thereto (each such agreement, an “Assignment Agreement”). Each such assignment with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund shall, unless otherwise consented to in writing by the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent, either be in an amount equal to the entire applicable Revolving Credit Obligations of the assigning Lender or (unless each of the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents) be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000. The amount of the assignment shall be based on the Revolving Credit Obligations subject to the assignment, determined as of the date of such assignment or as of the “Trade Date,” if the “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment Agreement.

(B) Consents. The consent of the applicable Borrower shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the consent of the applicable Borrower shall not be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing; provided further, that the Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless they shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received written notice thereof. The consent of each Issuing Bank shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. The consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective. Any consent required under this Section 13.3(B) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(C) Effect; Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement, together with any consents required by Sections 13.3(A) and 13.3(B), and (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Administrative Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent or unless such assignment is made to such assigning Lender’s Affiliate), such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such assignment. The Assignment Agreement shall contain a representation and warranty by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the funds, money, assets or other consideration used to make the purchase and assumption of the Revolving Loan Commitment and Revolving Credit Obligations under the applicable Assignment Agreement constitutes “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights, benefits and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the Lenders and shall have all the rights, benefits and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the transferor Lender shall be released with respect to the Revolving Credit

124

Obligations assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Borrowers, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent. In the case of an assignment covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights, benefits and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which survive payment of the Obligations and termination of the Loan Documents. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.3 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 13.2. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 13.3(C), the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower shall, at no additional cost to the applicable Borrower, and, if the transferor Lender or the Purchaser desires that its Loans be evidenced by promissory notes, make appropriate arrangements so that, upon cancellation and surrender to the applicable Borrower of the previously issued promissory notes (if any) held by the transferor Lender, new promissory notes issued hereunder or, as appropriate, replacement promissory notes are issued to such transferor Lender, if applicable, and new promissory notes or, as appropriate, replacement promissory notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Revolving Loan Commitments (or, if the Revolving Loan Termination Date has occurred, their respective Revolving Credit Obligations), as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.

(D) The Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower (and each Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to act in such capacity), shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Loan Commitments of, and principal amounts of and interest on the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time and whether such Lender is an original Lender or assignee of another Lender pursuant to an assignment under this Section 13.3. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

13.4 Dissemination of Information. Each Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries; provided, that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 10.9 of this Agreement.

13.5 Tax Certifications. If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any Transferee which is not incorporated under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 2.14(E).

125

126

ARTICLE XVI: CROSS GUARANTEE

16.1 Guarantee. In order to induce the Lenders to extend credit to the other Borrowers hereunder, but subject to the last paragraph of this Section 16.1, each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of the Obligations of such other Borrowers. Each Borrower further agrees that the due and punctual payment of such Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any such Obligation.

Each Borrower hereby waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Borrower of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall not be affected by: (a) the failure of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or release from, any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, or any other Loan Document or agreement; (d) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Obligations; (e) the failure of the Administrative Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain any security interest in, or to preserve any rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations, if any; (f) any change in the corporate, partnership or other existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Obligations; (g) the enforceability or validity of the Obligations or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to any collateral securing the Obligations or any part thereof, or any other invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Obligations, for any reason related to this Agreement, any Hedging Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any provision of applicable law, decree, order or regulation of any jurisdiction purporting to prohibit the payment by such Borrower or any other guarantor of the Obligations, of any of the Obligations or otherwise affecting any term of any of the Obligations; or (h) any other act, omission or delay to do any other act which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Borrower or otherwise operate as a discharge of a guarantor as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of such Borrower to subrogation.

Each Borrower further agrees that its agreement hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in favor of any Borrower or any other Person.

The obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Obligations or otherwise.

127

Each Borrower further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation (including a payment effected through exercise of a right of setoff) is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by a holder of the Obligations in its discretion).

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have at law or in equity against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any other Borrower to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Borrower hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in cash an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Each Borrower further agrees that if payment in respect of any Obligation shall be due in a currency other than Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York, Chicago or any other Eurocurrency Payment Office and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in any material respect, then, at the election of the Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall make payment of such Obligation in Dollars (based upon the applicable Equivalent Amount in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, Chicago or such other Eurocurrency Payment Office as is designated by the Administrative Agent and, as a separate and independent obligation, shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and any Lender against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment.

Upon payment by any Borrower of any sums as provided above, all rights of such Borrower against any Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations owed by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders.

Nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of any Borrower hereunder except the full performance and payment of the Obligations.

Each Borrower hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Section 16.1 or the Domestic Subsidiary Guaranty or Foreign Subsidiary Guaranty, as applicable, in respect of Hedging Obligations (provided, however, that each Borrower shall only be liable under this paragraph for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this paragraph or otherwise under this Section 16.1 voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). Each Borrower intends that this paragraph constitute, and this paragraph shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support,

128

or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 16.1 to the contrary, no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be liable hereunder for any of the Loans made to, or any other Obligation incurred solely by or on behalf of, the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary Borrower. The Parties agree that no German Obligor shall be liable for any obligations, guarantees, indemnities, fees, costs or other Obligations other than in relation to Loans directly made to it and in particular, nothing in this Section 16.1 shall constitute a guarantee by a German Obligor, except that this Section 16.1 shall constitute a guarantee by Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx with respect to Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, and Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx shall, subject to Section 16.2 (Limitation on Enforcement) below, be liable for any and all obligations, guarantees, indemnities, fees, costs or other Obligations in relation to Loans made to Xxxxxxxx Xxxx.

16.2 Limitation on Enforcement. The enforcement of the guarantee granted by any German Obligor pursuant to this Article XVI (the “Guaranty”) will be limited in accordance with the following:

(A) If this Guaranty is enforced

(i) with respect to amounts which correspond to funds that have been borrowed under the Loan Documents and have been on-lent to, or otherwise been passed on (unless it has been passed on in a way where repayment or enforcement would not affect section 30, 31 German GmbH-Act (GmbH-Gesetz) (the “GmbH-Act”)) to, the relevant German Obligor or any of its subsidiaries to the extent that such amounts have not been repaid and are outstanding at the date the Guaranty is enforced; and/or

(ii) at any time when a domination and profit and loss transfer agreement (in accordance with section 291 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz)) (Beherrschungs- und Gewinnabführungsvertrag) is or becomes effective between the German Obligor and any direct or indirect shareholder of the German Obligor or a subsidiary of such shareholder as dominating entity (beherrschendes Unternehmen) and, to the extent required to prevent a conflict with section 30, 31 German GmbH-Act, a valuable counterclaim exists (werthaltiger Anspruch); (the amounts with respect to which enforcement is sought under the conditions described in clauses (i) and/or (ii) being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Unlimited Enforcement Amount”),

the enforcement of the Guaranty of the relevant German Obligor shall be unlimited.

(B) To the extent that the enforcement of the Guaranty is made in respect of amounts other than of the Unlimited Enforcement Amount and the relevant German Obligor demonstrates that an unrestricted enforcement of the Guaranty has the effect of:

129

(iii) reducing such Guarantor's net assets (Nettovermögen) (the “Net Assets”) to an amount less than its stated share capital (Stammkapital), or

(iv) (if its Net Assets are already lower than its stated share capital) causing such amount to be further reduced,

and thereby affects its assets which are required for the obligatory preservation of its stated share capital according to §§ 30, 31 German GmbH-Act (“Limitation on Enforcement” or “Limitation Event”), the Administrative Agent shall only be entitled to enforce the Guaranty and to claim any payment under the Guaranty in excess of the Unlimited Enforcement Amount in respect of the Obligations up to an amount which corresponds to the amount by which the Net Assets of the relevant German Obligor (determined in accordance with sub-paragraph (c) below) exceed the amount which is necessary to preserve the stated share capital of the relevant German Obligor.

(C) The value of the Net Assets shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the German Commercial Act (Handelsgesetzbuch, “HGB”) consistently applied by the respective Guarantor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluss according to § 42 GmbH-Act, §§ 242, 264 HGB) in the previous years, save that:

(v) the amount of any increase of the stated share capital (Stammkapital) of the relevant German Obligor (A) made from retained earnings (aus Gesellschaftsmitteln), or (B) made by way of contributions in kind (gegen Sacheinlagen), registered after the date of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent shall be deducted from the relevant stated share capital;

(vi) deducting (A) any amount of profits (Gewinne) not available for distribution to the shareholders (Ausschüttungssperre) and (B) provisions for expense (Aufwandsrückstellungen) according to 249 para. 1, sent. 2 no. 1 HGB;

(vii) loans and other liabilities incurred in violation of the provisions of any Loan Document shall be disregarded (unless the relevant director demonstrates that such violation was neither negligent nor willful); and

(viii) loans provided to the relevant German Obligor by any member of the group shall not be taken into account as liabilities as far as such loans are subordinated by law or by contract at least to the claims of the unsubordinated creditors of such relevant Guarantor, unless a waiver, the contribution of such liability into the capital reserves of the German Guarantor or any other way of extinguishing the relevant liability (including by way of deep subordination) would violate mandatory legal restrictions applicable to the relevant creditor of such liability.

(D) The Limitation on Enforcement shall only apply if and to the extent that (i) the managing director(s) (Geschäftsführer) on behalf of the relevant German Obligor have notified and confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days following a demand

130

under the Guaranty that and to what extent an unrestricted enforcement of the Guaranty would lead to the occurrence of a Limitation Event (the “Management Determination”).

(E) If the Administrative Agent disagrees with the Management Determination, the Administrative Agent shall nevertheless be entitled to enforce the Guaranty with respect to the Unlimited Enforcement Amount and all additional amounts which are undisputed between itself and the relevant German Obligor in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) above. In relation to the amount which is disputed, the Administrative Agent and the relevant German Obligor shall instruct a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation to determine within 40 calendar days (or such longer period as has been agreed between the relevant German Obligor and the Administrative Agent) from the date the Administrative Agent has contested the Management Determination the amount of the relevant German Obligor’s available Net Assets (the “Auditor's Determination”). If the Administrative Agent and the relevant German Obligor do not agree on the appointment of a joint auditor within 5 Business Days from the date the Administrative Agent has disputed the Management Determination, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to appoint auditors of international standing and reputation in its sole discretion. The amounts determined in the Auditor's Determination shall be (except for manifest error) binding for all parties hereto. The costs of the Auditor’s Determination shall be borne by the relevant German Obligor.

(F) If pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination the amount of the available Net Assets is higher than set out in the Management Determination, the Administrative Agent may avail itself of any enforcement proceeds which exceed the amount which is necessary, pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination, to maintain the relevant German Obligor’s stated share capital.

(G) The relevant German Obligor shall realize, to the extent legally permitted and commercially reasonable, in a situation where it does not have sufficient net assets to maintain its stated share capital, any and all of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value (Buchwert) that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets if the relevant asset is not necessary for such relevant Guarantor’s business (nicht betriebsnotwendig).

(H) The limitation set out in paragraph (b) above does not affect the right of the Administrative Agent to claim any outstanding amount again at a later point in time if and to the extent that paragraph (b) would allow this at that later point.

(I) This Section 16.2 (Limitation on Enforcement) shall apply mutatis mutandis if the Guaranty is granted by a member of the Obligor Group incorporated as a limited liability partnership (GmbH & Co. KG) in relation to the limited liability company as general partner (Komplementär) of such member of the Obligor Group.

(J) Any restrictions set out in this Section 16.2 (Limitation on Enforcement) shall cease to be effective at the date of a court decision pursuant to section 26 or 27 of the InsO on the petition for the commencement of insolvency proceedings with respect to the relevant German Obligor’s assets.

ARTICLE XVII: AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT

The Company, the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree that, upon (i) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by each of the parties hereto and (ii) satisfaction (or waiver by the aforementioned parties) of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.1, the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are amended, superseded and restated in their entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to and shall not constitute a novation of the Existing Credit Agreement or the Indebtedness created thereunder. The commitments to extend credit of each Lender that is a party to the Existing Credit Agreement shall, on the Closing Date, automatically be deemed amended and the only commitments to extend credit shall be those hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, upon the effectiveness hereof: (a) all loans and letters of credit incurred under the Existing Credit Agreement which are outstanding on the Closing Date shall continue as Loans and Letters of Credit under (and shall be governed by the terms of) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (b) all references in the “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) to the “Administrative Agent”, the “Credit Agreement” and the “Loan Documents” shall be deemed to refer to the Administrative Agent, this Agreement and the Loan Documents, respectively, (c) all obligations constituting “Obligations” under the Existing Credit Agreement with any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender which are outstanding on the Closing Date shall continue as Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (d) any promissory note issued under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed for all purposes superseded and replaced by the promissory notes (if any) issued to such Lender under this Agreement, (e) any obligations under the “Fee Letters” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) shall be of no further force and effect and such Fee Letters are hereby terminated, and (f) the Administrative Agent shall make such reallocations, sales, assignments or other relevant actions in respect of each Lender’s credit and loan exposure under the Existing Credit Agreement as are necessary in order that each such Lender’s Revolving Loan Obligations are equal to its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Revolving Loan Obligations on the Closing Date and the Borrowers hereby agree to compensate each Lender for reasonable and documented costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Lender in connection with the sale and assignment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loans on the terms and in the manner set forth in Section 4.4 hereof. Each Lender hereby confirms the Administrative Agent’s authority to enter into such additional reaffirmations of, or any amendments to, amendments and restatements of, or other modifications to, the other existing Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent shall approve in its sole discretion, in connection with the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement so long as such amendments, restatements or other modifications do not contain any material modifications adverse to the Lenders (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such modifications may include the addition or removal of Loan Parties and other changes that are otherwise permitted by the Administrative Agent’s authority under or with respect to such existing Loan Documents or are consistent with changes in provisions included in this Agreement as compared to the provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement).

(b) each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower has the legal capacity, corporate power and authority to execute the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and to perform its respective obligations thereunder;

(c) each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower has taken all necessary corporate actions required under its constitutional documents and German corporate law binding on it to validly execute the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and to perform its respective obligations thereunder;

(d) each Transaction Document has been duly executed by the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to which it is a party;

(e) the entry into, and performance of, the Transaction Documents by the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower (to the extent it is a party to it) does not violate the articles of association referred to in Paragraph 2.1(g) and 2.1(h) (Reviewed Documents), of the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower;

(f) no consent, approval, authorization, registration, filing with or order of any German court, governmental department or other regulatory body of Germany is required for the execution or delivery by the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower of any Transaction Document and the performance of its respective obligations thereunder, which, if not obtained or made, would affect the validity or enforceability of the Transaction Documents;

(g) the choice of the laws of the State of New York to govern the Transaction Documents is legal and binding under German law and will be recognized and upheld by the German courts;

(h) the submission made by the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers in the Transaction Documents to the jurisdiction of the U.S. federal or New York state court sitting in New York City will be given effect by the courts of Germany;

(i) a final and conclusive judgment in a civil or commercial matter against the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers for a definite sum of money obtained in any U.S. federal or New York state court sitting in New York City for the recovery of amounts due and unpaid by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Transaction Documents to which the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is a party will be recognized by the appropriate courts of the Federal Republic of Germany as creating a debt enforceable against the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower by the judgment creditor and such courts will give judgment in fresh proceedings to recover the debt without re-examination and re-litigation of the matters adjudicated upon; and

(j) there are no registration, stamp or other taxes or duties of any kind payable in Germany in connection with the execution by any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its respective obligations thereunder.

6. Qualifications

6.1 General

Our opinions expressed in Paragraph 5 above are subject to the following qualifications:

(a) No opinion is expressed as to matters of fact.

(b) We have not been asked and do not opine on the validity and enforceability of the Documents.

(i) the financial standing of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers or other financial aspects in relation to the Transaction Documents, nor as to whether the terms of the Transaction Documents are appropriate or sufficient to achieve their presumed commercial purpose;

(ii) European Union law (except where directly applicable in Germany);

(iii) German external trade law (Außenwirtschaftsrecht) (including, but not limited to, the German Act on External Trade (Außenwirtschaftsgesetz) and the German External Trade Administrative Order (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung))

(iv) German tax laws, German regulatory laws (Aufsichtsrecht), including matters relating to the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz);

(v) foreclosure law (Zwangsvollstreckungsrecht); or

(vi) insurance law.

Where we have addressed specific questions in one of the above legal areas in this Paragraph 6 (Qualifications), we have only answered the specific question as it relates to the transaction contemplated in the Transaction Document but have not made a comprehensive legal analysis of other aspects of such legal area. The specific questions have been selected on the basis of market practice and our professional opinion in respect of relevance for the transaction contemplated in the Transaction Document

(d) This Opinion as well as the exercise and enforcement of rights in Germany are subject to all applicable laws relating to insolvency, bankruptcy, administration, reorganization, liquidation and analogous circumstances and laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, including without limitation to the generality of the foregoing the principles of shareholder subordination, the Insolvency Code (Insolvenzord-

E-10

Page 10

nung) and the Fraudulent Conveyance Act (Anfechtungsgesetz) and no opinion is expressed with respect to such matters in this Opinion.

(e) When rendering the opinions set out in this Opinion with respect to Transaction Documents not governed by German law, we have only considered rights and obligations as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents without regard to any further obligation or limitation that may be implied or imposed by laws other than the laws of Germany, and we have interpreted the language used in the Transaction Documents without considering the particular meaning such language might have due to documents not reviewed by us or due to laws other than the laws of Germany.

(f) In rendering this Opinion we have not been responsible for verifying the accuracy of any facts, including statements of foreign law, representations or warranties or the reasonableness of any statement of opinion set out in the Documents or in any other document relating to the Documents (including such factual matters that we have assumed in this Opinion), or that facts have been omitted there from. To the extent that the accuracy of such facts, representations and warranties or the reasonableness of any statement of opinion orally, in writing or electronically confirmed is relevant to the contents of this Opinion, it has been permitted to us to assume that such facts, representation and warranties are and will be at all times correct, complete and accurate and that such statements of opinion are reasonable. For the avoidance of doubt, such reliance as aforesaid does not extend to representations or warranties on legal matters on which we expressly opine.

(g) For the purposes of this Opinion we have relied on the commercial register excerpt mentioned in Paragraph 2.1 (Reviewed Documents), above. Entries in the commercial register are made by qualified legal personnel upon review of the Transaction Documents. Although excerpts from the commercial register under German law do not necessarily constitute conclusive evidence of the matters reflected thereby, they are as a practical matter for business purposes considered as sufficient proof of the facts stated therein.

(h) There is no final judicial precedent in Germany for holding facsimile or e-mail communications legal, valid and binding in all circumstances (in particular where there is a legal requirement for written form, a signature by way of a facsimile signing has been held insufficient to satisfy such requirement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, where there are no particular legal requirements as to the form of such communication (unless the requirement of actual receipt has been validly waived) any communication actually received by the addressees will be deemed validly given (widerlegbare Vermutung).

(i) In connection with the enforcement of agreements before a German court, (i) a certified German translation may need to be prepared and submitted to such court and (ii) for the institution of court action or other proceedings before any German court (including the foreclosure on any security), the plaintiff or applicant may be required to advance court fees and, if the plaintiff is not resident in the European Union or the European Economic Area and depending on the specific circumstances, may be required to post a bond for the legal fees of the defendant.

(j) Pursuant to Section 171 German Code of Civil Procedure, any agent appointed for services of process in Germany must produce a power of attorney when any document is served on him. It is disputed in German legal literature whether thereby service of process may effectively be denied. In addition, under German law, the appointment of an agent may be revoked or terminated for good cause (aus wichtigem Xxxxx) even if such appointment has been made irrevocable.

(k) The Transaction Documents provide for the grant of certain guarantees and indemnities by the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers which operate as up-stream and/or cross-stream guarantees. The right for German limited liability companies such as the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers or German partnerships with a German limited liability company as sole general partner to grant up-stream and/or cross-stream guarantees or security is limited under the statutes and case law, in particular the statutory rules on capital maintenance (Kapitalerhaltung) which limits the direct or indirect repayment of funds to shareholders. Pursuant to sections 30, 31 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act ("GmbHG"), assets of a limited liability company which are necessary to maintain the nominal share capital of the limited liability company must not be distributed or repaid or otherwise made available to or for the benefit of a shareholder of such entity. The granting as well as the enforcement of a guarantee or a security interest by a limited liability company to a third party in order to secure obligations of a (direct or indirect) shareholder or an entity affiliated with such shareholder may, therefore, conflict with the prohibitions under section 30 et seq. GmbHG. Furthermore, pursuant to section 64 sentence 3 GmbHG, the managing director of a limited liability company must not make payments to its or for the benefit of its (direct or indirect) shareholder or their respective subsidiaries, if as a consequence of such payment the limited liability company becomes illiquid (zahlungsunfähig). While we do not express any opinion on the compliance of the Transaction Documents with such rules and potential restrictions on enforcement resulting from such rules, we note that a breach by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower's representative of such rules may affect such representative's ability to validly represent the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, if a breach is based on a misuse of the representative's powers and the other party was or should have been aware of such misuse.

(l) The performance of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers under the Transaction Documents may be subject to defenses (Einreden) and/or objections (Einwendungen) any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower may have under any applicable law, including on the basis of capital maintenance rules or liquidity preservation rules.

(m) Cross-border payments received or made by German residents (Gebietsansässige) from or to non-residents (Gebietsfremde), respectively, or for their account to German residents exceeding EUR 12,500 (or the equivalent in foreign currency) must be notified to the German Federal Bank "Deutsche Bundesbank", pursuant to section 67 of the German Foreign Trade and Payment Regulation (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung). Any omission of such notification will trigger an administrative fine, but will not affect the due execution, validity or enforceability of the relevant Transaction Documents.

6.2 Reservations relating to choice of law

(a) Although the choice of foreign law to govern an agreement will be recognized in Germany, German courts will:

(i) apply such provisions of German law which are mandatory at an international level within the meaning of Article 9 of the Regulation (EC) No 593/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 2008 on the law applicable to contractual obligations (Rome I) ("Rome I Regulation") or Article 16 of the Regulation (EC) No. 864/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 July 2007 applicable on non-contractual obligations (Rome II) ("Rome II Regulation");

(ii) not apply such provisions of non-German law that contravene basic principles of German law (ordre public), in particular (but without limitation) constitutional rights pursuant to the German Constitution (Grundgesetz);

(iii) have regard to the law of the country in which performance takes place in relation to the manner of performance and the steps to be taken in the event of defective performance (Article 12 (2) of the Rome I Regulation); and

(iv) if all other elements relevant to the situation at the time of the choice of law are located in a country other than the country whose law has been chosen, according to Article 3 (3) of the Rome I Regulation, apply those provisions of the law of that other country which cannot be derogated from by agreement and if all other elements relevant to the situation at the time of choice of law are located in the European Union, apply pursuant to Article 3 (4) of the Rome I Regulation those provisions of European law that cannot be derogated from by agreement.

E-13

Page 13

(b) Provisions relating to the choice of law to govern non-contractual obligations will be subject, where applicable, to the Rome II Regulation. To the extent that such non-contractual obligation does not fall within the scope of the Rome II Regulation, provisions containing an anticipated choice of law will normally not be valid and the relevant non-contractual obligation will (provided that no international treaty applies) be governed by the law determined by the relevant German rules on conflicts of laws, as in particular set out in Article 38 et seq. of the German Introductory Act to the German Civil Code (Einführungsgesetz zum Bürgerlichen Gesetzbuch).

6.3 Reservations relating to recognition/enforcement of foreign judgments

(a) The recognition of a judgment on the basis of section 328 German Code of Civil Procedure by a German court is subject to the following requirements:

(i) the relevant foreign court did not lack jurisdiction;

(ii) if the judgment was rendered in default of appearance, the defendant must have been duly served with the document which instituted the proceedings or with an equivalent document in sufficient time to enable him to arrange for his defense;

(iii) the judgment must not be incompatible with an earlier German or other recognizable foreign judgment and the foreign proceeding which the foreign judgment is based on must be compatible with a pending German proceeding, if the German proceeding was commenced earlier than the foreign proceeding;

(iv) such recognition must not be contrary to the public policy (ordre public) in Germany; and

(v) reciprocity (Gegenseitigkeit) of recognition is given.

(b) The recognition of a judgment on the basis of the Council Regulation (EC) no. 1215/2012 by a German court is subject to the following requirements:

(i) the relevant foreign court did not lack jurisdiction;

(ii) such recognition must not be evidently contrary to the public policy (ordre public) in Germany;

(iii) if the judgment was given in default of appearance, the defendant must have been duly served with the document which instituted the proceedings or with an equivalent document in sufficient time to enable him to arrange for his defense;

E-14

XXXX

XXXXXXXX

Page 14

(iv) the judgment must not be incompatible with an earlier German or other recognizable foreign judgment; and

(v) no violation of Articles 10 to 24 and no event set out in Articles 72 of the Council Regulation (EC) no. 1215/2012, has occurred.

(c) The recognition and enforcement of punitive damages is usually denied by German courts as incompatible with the substantial foundations of German law. Moreover, a German court may reduce the amount of damages granted by a U.S. court and recognize damages only to the extent that they are necessary to compensate actual (i) losses or (ii) damages.

(d) Pursuant to Section 722 German Code of Civil Procedure the enforcement of a judgment of a foreign court requires a special enforcement judgment of a German court.

(e) A German court will only assume jurisdiction to hear the case and give judgment against a defendant on the basis of personal service (Zustellung). Consequently where the defendant cannot be served, the German courts will not assume jurisdiction and we give no opinion in this respect. Although a party may be validly served with proceedings instituted in the German courts, the German courts may refuse to accept jurisdiction or stay proceedings in certain circumstances (for example, if another forum is more appropriate for the action or if there is litigation pending in respect of such matter in another jurisdiction).

(f) A money judgment for a non-Euro currency may be enforced only for the Euro amount determined by applying the exchange rate as of the day of enforcement, and any difference between the money judgment and a Euro amount paid in full in response to such enforcement action may not be claimed or enforced by further money judgment because of res judicata.

(g) A German court may refuse to give effect to any provision of the Transaction Documents for the payment of expenses in respect of the costs of enforcement (actual or contemplated) of unsuccessful litigation brought before a German court or where the court has itself made an order for costs or which would (i) involve the enforcement of foreign revenue or penal laws or (ii) be inconsistent with German public policy;

(h) The enforcement of a foreign judgment in Germany or the commencement of proceedings in Germany is subject to the German laws of civil procedure and enforcement (Zwangsvollstreckungsrecht) as well as related statutes, each as applied by the courts or other competent authorities in Germany, which, inter alia, but without limitation, might require a certified translation of foreign language documents into the German language, do not provide for discovery and might decide on

E-15

XXXX

XXXXXXXX

Page 15

the costs to be borne by the parties otherwise than as contemplated in the Transaction Documents. The German court will usually not apply foreign law by itself; the parties have to present such law to the court like facts, and, if disputed, the court will take evidence (usually expert opinions) on the applicable legal provisions of the foreign law. The court will then apply the foreign law according to its evaluation of the respective evidence taken at its discretion.

(i) The submission to, waiver or appointment of a foreign jurisdiction will not be recognized if it would result in a conflict with public policy (ordre public) or basic principles of German law.

(j) Whether or not the Transaction Documents violate German public policy (ordre public) could depend on the interpretation of the Documents under the laws of the State of New York which is not within the scope of this Opinion. In addition, the determination whether the provisions of the Transaction Documents are in compliance with German public policy (ordre public) could depend on an evaluation of the overall circumstances of the transaction and leaves the deciding court with some discretion.

(k) Except in those cases where the claimant has his habitual residence in a member state of the European Union or in a state which is party to the European Economic Area Agreement, or where an international treaty to which Germany as well as the state of the claimant’s habitual residence are a party provides an exemption, or where the claimant owns certain assets within Germany, or in a few other exceptional cases listed in the German Code of Civil Procedure, upon application of the defendant the German court will order a claimant in court proceedings to provide security for the costs of the proceedings.

6.4 Reservations relating to submission to a foreign jurisdiction

(a) Irrespective of the submission to a foreign jurisdiction pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents, a German court will under certain conditions become competent to hear a case relating to the Transaction Documents if the defendant argues as to the substance of the matter in front of the relevant German court without objecting to its competency (rügelose Einlassung).

(b) The submission to the jurisdiction of foreign courts pursuant the Transaction Documents may be superseded by provisions of German law determining exclusive venues for certain matters (e.g. disputes concerning, as main object and not merely a preliminary question, the ownership of immovable property, the existence of a company or the validity of registrations in public registers).

(c) The manner in which any particular issue would be treated in any actual court case would depend in part on facts and circumstances particular to the case and would

E-16

XXXX

XXXXXXXX

Page 16

also depend on how the court involved chose to exercise discretion available to it in construing applicable German law. In particular German courts are not bound by the common law principle of stare decisis, i.e. by prior decisions of courts of equal or higher levels. This Opinion is not intended to guarantee the outcome of any legal dispute which may arise in the future.

The Credit Agreement, the Notes and the Guaranty are referred to herein, individually, as a “Loan Document” and, collectively, as the “Loan Documents”.

In addition, we have made such investigations of law as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

In such examination and in rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed: (i) (x) that each of the parties to the Loan Documents (other than the U.S. Credit Parties) is a validly existing entity in the jurisdiction of its organization, in good standing in each applicable jurisdiction and has the power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Loan Documents to which it is a party and that such execution, delivery and performance does not violate any provision of the certificate of incorporation (or equivalent formation document) of each such party, and (y) the due authorization, execution and delivery of each Loan Document, and each other document referred to above by all of the parties thereto (other than the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents by the U.S. Credit Parties); (ii) the genuineness of all signatures on all documents submitted to us; (iii) the authenticity and completeness of all documents, corporate, limited liability company and other entity records, certificates and other instruments reviewed by us; (iv) that photocopy, electronic, certified, conformed, facsimile and other copies of original documents, corporate, limited liability company and other entity records, certificates and other instruments reviewed by us conform to such original documents, records, certificates and other instruments; (v) the legal capacity and competency of all individuals executing documents; (vi) that (x) the Loan Documents are the valid and binding obligations of each of the parties thereto (other than the obligations of the Credit Parties under the Loan Documents) under New York law, enforceable against such parties (other than the Credit Parties) under New York law in accordance with their respective terms and have not been amended or terminated orally or in writing,

and (y) the status of the Loan Documents as legally valid and binding obligations of the parties is not affected by any (1) breaches of, or defaults under, agreements or instruments, (2) violations of statutes, rules, regulations or court or governmental orders, or (3) failures to obtain required consents, approvals or authorizations from, or make required registrations, declarations or filings with, governmental authorities (except, in each case, to the extent expressly covered by our opinions herein); (vii) that there are no agreements or understandings between or among any of the parties to the Loan Documents or third parties that would expand, modify or otherwise affect the terms of the Loan Documents or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder or that would modify, release, terminate, subordinate or delay the attachment of the security interest and liens granted thereunder; (viii) that the statements contained in the certificates and comparable documents of public officials, officers and representatives of the Credit Parties and other Persons on which we have relied for the purposes of this opinion letter (including, without limitation, the Good Standing Certificates) are true and correct on and as of the date hereof; (ix) that the officers, directors, managers, stockholders or members of each of the Credit Parties have properly exercised their fiduciary duties; and (x) that the rights and remedies set forth in the Loan Documents will be exercised reasonably and in good faith and were granted without fraud or duress and for good, valuable and adequate consideration and without intent to hinder, delay or defeat any rights of any creditors or stockholders of, or other holders of equity interests in, any of the Credit Parties. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion letter, we have relied (without independent investigation, except as expressly indicated herein) upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and representatives of the Credit Parties and upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained in the Loan Documents, including the Credit Agreement.

Statements in this opinion letter that are qualified by the expression “to our knowledge”, “of which we have knowledge”, “known to us” or “we have no reason to believe” or other expressions of like import are limited solely to the current actual knowledge of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxx, who are the attorneys in this Firm who have devoted substantive attention to the representation of the Credit Parties in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents (and expressly exclude the knowledge of any other person in this Firm and any constructive or imputed knowledge of any information, whether by reason of our representation of the Credit Parties or otherwise). We have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the accuracy of any such statement, and any limited inquiry undertaken by us during the preparation of this opinion letter should not be regarded as such an investigation. In rendering the opinions set forth in clause (ii) of opinion paragraph 4, we have not made any independent investigation of any court, government or regulatory records to determine whether any order, judgment or decree has been filed or is pending.

Based upon the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, and subject to the assumptions, limitations, qualifications and exceptions set forth herein, we are of the following opinions:

1. Each U.S. Credit Party (other than MPC Products) is an existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware; and each U.S. Credit Party (other than MPC Products) has the corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party. MPC Products is an existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Illinois; and MPC Products has the corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party.

2. Each U.S. Credit Party has taken all necessary corporate action on its part to be taken by it in order to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which

E-22

it is a party; and each U.S. Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party.

3. Each of the Loan Documents constitutes the valid and binding obligation of each Credit Party which is a party thereto, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms.

4. The execution and delivery by each Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, the incurring and repayment by the Borrowers of the borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the guaranteeing by each other Credit Party of such borrowings pursuant to the Loan Documents do not (i) cause such Credit Party to violate any federal or New York State statute, rule or regulation, or (ii) cause such Credit Party to violate any order, judgment or decree of any federal or New York State court or governmental body or authority which by its terms names and is applicable to such Credit Party and which is known to us, (iii) constitute a breach by such Credit Party of, or constitute a default by such Credit Party under, or require the approval or consent of any person under, the express terms of any agreements listed on Schedule I to this letter (the “Reviewed Agreements”)., or (iv) solely with respect to the U.S. Credit Parties, violate any provision of such U.S. Credit Party’s respective Charter Documents

5. No consent, approval or authorization of, or filing with, any federal or New York State governmental body or authority is required to be obtained or made by the Credit Parties to authorize, or is otherwise required to be obtained or made by the Credit Parties in connection with, the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to which such Credit Party is a party, the incurring and repayment by the Borrowers of the borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the guaranteeing by each other Credit Party of such borrowings pursuant to the Loan Documents to which it is a party, other than such consents, approvals and authorizations, which, to our knowledge, has been obtained and are in full force and effect.

6. No Credit Party is, and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of the Loans for the purposes permitted by the Credit Agreement, no Credit Party will then be (solely as a result of such application), required to register as an “investment company” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

7. The Loans and the application of the proceeds thereof as provided in the Credit Agreement do not violate Regulation U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

The foregoing opinions are subject to the following assumptions, exceptions, qualifications and limitations:

A. We express no opinion with respect to any of the following (collectively, the “Excluded Laws”): (i) anti-fraud laws or, except as expressly set forth in opinion paragraph 6, other federal or state securities laws; (ii) except as expressly set forth in opinion paragraph 7, Federal Reserve Board margin regulations; (iii) pension or employee benefit laws, e.g., ERISA; (iv) federal or state antitrust, trade or unfair competition laws, including, without limitation, the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended; and Section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 19 50, as amended by the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 2018; (v) the statutes, ordinances, administrative decisions or rules and regulations of counties, towns, municipalities and other political subdivisions (whether created or enabled through legislative action at the federal, state or regional level); (vi) federal or state environmental laws; (vii) federal or state land use, building codes or subdivision laws or other laws, rules

We express no opinion as to the effect on our opinions regarding the Loan Documents arising out of the status or activities of, or laws applicable to, the Agent, the Lenders or any other party, if any, to the Loan Documents (other than the Credit Parties under federal or New York State law), and, without limiting the foregoing, we are not expressing any opinion as to the effect of compliance or non-compliance by such parties with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents because of the nature of any of their businesses..

E. With respect to our opinions set forth in opinion paragraph 1 above, with your permission, we are relying solely and without independent investigation on our review and examination of (i) with respect to the existence and good standing of the U.S. Credit Parties, the Good Standing Certificates, and (ii) with respect to entity power and authority of the U.S. Credit Parties, the Charter Documents and applicable statutes governing the incorporation or formation of each of the U.S. Credit Parties, as applicable (as such statutes appear in a standard compilation thereof without regard to any regulations promulgated thereunder or any judicial or administrative interpretations thereof), to the extent covered by this opinion letter.

I. No opinion is expressed herein with respect to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision of the Loan Documents insofar as it purports to effect a choice of governing law or choice of forum for the adjudication of disputes or with respect to the acceptance by a federal court located in the State of New York of jurisdiction of a dispute arising under the Loan Documents, other than (a) the enforceability by a New York State court under New York General Obligations Law Section 5-1401 of the choice of New York State law as the governing law of the Loan Documents (subject, however, to the extent limited by the Constitution of the United States and by Section 1-301 of the New York UCC), and (b) the enforceability by a New York State court under New York General Obligations Law Section 5-1402 of New York State courts as a non-exclusive forum for the adjudication of disputes with respect to the Loan Documents.

AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Guaranty”) is made as of June 19, 2019, by each of Xxxxxxxx FST, Inc., MPC Products Corporation and Woodward HRT, Inc. (the “Initial Guarantors” and together with any additional Significant Domestic Incorporated Subsidiaries which become parties to this Guaranty by executing a Supplement hereto in the form attached hereto as Annex I, the “Guarantors”), in favor of Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) for the benefit of the Lenders under the below-described Credit Agreement. Each capitalized term used herein and not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Xxxxxxxx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has entered into that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of July 10, 2013 (as the same may have been amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers party thereto (together, the “Borrowers” and each individually a “Borrower”), the financial institutions from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent;

WHEREAS, the Initial Guarantors have previously entered into that certain Subsidiary Guaranty, dated as of July 10, 2013 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Guaranty”), in favor of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent with respect to the obligations of the Company under the Existing Credit Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Company, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have agreed to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety and in connection therewith have entered into that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, by and among the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, which Credit Agreement provides, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, for extensions of credit and other financial accommodations by the Lenders to the Borrowers;

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the extensions of credit by the Lenders under the Credit Agreement that each of the Guarantors (constituting all of the Significant Domestic Incorporated Subsidiaries of the Company required to execute this Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.2(K) of the Credit Agreement) execute and deliver this Guaranty, whereby each of the Guarantors, without limitation and with full recourse, shall guarantee the payment when due of all of the Obligations, including, without limitation, all principal, interest, letter of credit reimbursement obligations and other amounts that shall be at any time payable by the Company under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and

WHEREAS, in consideration of the direct and indirect financial and other support that the Borrowers have provided, and such direct and indirect financial and other support as the Borrowers may in the future provide, to the Guarantors, and in order to induce the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to enter into the Credit Agreement, the Initial Guarantors have agreed

I-1-2

to amend and restate the Existing Guaranty pursuant to this Guaranty and each of the Guarantors is willing to guarantee the Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. In order to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to make the Loans and the other financial accommodations to the Borrowers and to issue the Letters of Credit described in the Credit Agreement, each of the Guarantors represents and warrants to each Lender and the Administrative Agent as of the date of this Guaranty, giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents on the Closing Date, and thereafter on each date as required by Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement that:

(a) It (i) is a corporation, limited liability company, or partnership duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (ii) is duly qualified to do business as a foreign entity and is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction in which it does business, except for any such jurisdiction where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) has all requisite power and authority to own, operate and encumber its property and to conduct its business as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted.

(b) It has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Guaranty and to perform its obligations hereunder. The execution and delivery by it of this Guaranty and the performance by it of its obligations hereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate, limited liability company or partnership proceedings, and this Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor, in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

(c) Neither the execution and delivery by it of this Guaranty, nor the consummation by it of the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions hereof, will (i) conflict with the charter or other organizational documents of such Guarantor, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award (including, without limitation, any environmental property transfer laws or regulations) applicable to such Guarantor or any provisions of any indenture, instrument or material agreement to which such Guarantor is party or is subject, or require termination of any such indenture, instrument or material agreement, (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien whatsoever upon any of the property or assets of the Guarantor or (iv) require any approval of such Guarantor’s board of directors, shareholders, partners or unitholders except such as have been obtained. The execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantors of each of the Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party do not and will not require any

I-1-3

registration with, consent or approval of, or notice to, or other action to, with or by any governmental authority, including under any environmental property transfer laws or regulations, except filings, consents or notices which have been made, obtained or given, or which, if not made, obtained or given, individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) It has no Indebtedness other than Indebtedness permitted under Section 7.3(A) of the Credit Agreement.

In addition to the foregoing, each of the Guarantors covenants that, so long as any Lender has any Revolving Loan Commitment or Letter of Credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement or any amount payable under the Credit Agreement or any other Obligations shall remain unpaid, it will, and, if necessary, will enable the Borrowers to, fully comply with those covenants and agreements of the Borrowers applicable to such Guarantor set forth in the Credit Agreement.

Section 2. The Guaranty. Each of the Guarantors hereby unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally with the other Guarantors, the full and punctual payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations, including, without limitation, (i) the principal of and interest on each Advance made pursuant to the Credit Agreement, (ii) any Reimbursement Obligations or the performance of such Reimbursement Obligations, (iii) all other amounts payable by the Company under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all Hedging Obligations (subject to the proviso in the second sentence of the definition of “Obligations”), and (iv) the punctual and faithful performance, keeping, observance, and fulfillment of all of the agreements, conditions, covenants, and obligations contained in the Loan Documents (all of the foregoing being referred to collectively as the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Upon failure by any Borrower to pay punctually any such amount or perform such obligation, each of the Guarantors agrees that it shall forthwith on demand pay such amount or perform such obligation at the place and in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement or the relevant Loan Document, as the case may be. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that this Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and is not a guaranty of collection.

Section 3. Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

(i) any extension, renewal, settlement, indulgence, compromise, waiver or release of or with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether (in any such case) by operation of law or otherwise, or any failure or omission to enforce any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

I-1-4

(ii) any modification or amendment of or supplement to the Credit Agreement, any Hedging Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any such amendment which may increase the amount of, or the interest rates applicable to, any of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby;

(iii) any change in the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Borrower or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any of their respective assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which the Guarantors may have at any time against any Borrower, any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in connection with any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;

(v) the enforceability or validity of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to the collateral, if any, securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any other invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, for any reason related to the Credit Agreement, any Hedging Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Borrower or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(vi) the failure of the Administrative Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain any security interest in, or to preserve any rights to, any security or collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, if any;

(vii) the election by, or on behalf of, any one or more of the Lenders, in any proceeding instituted under Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C. 101 et seq.) (the “Bankruptcy Code”), of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code;

(viii) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any Borrower as debtor-in- possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(ix) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of the claims of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent for repayment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(x) the failure of any other guarantor to sign or become party to this Guaranty or any amendment, change, or reaffirmation hereof;

I-1-5

(xi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Section 3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder; or

(xii) any release, surrender, compromise, settlement, waiver, subordination or modification, with or without consideration, of any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, any other guaranties with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any other obligation of any person or entity with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any nonperfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 4. Discharge Only Upon Payment In Full; Reinstatement In Certain Circumstances. Each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash and the Revolving Loan Commitments and all Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement shall have terminated or expired. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Guarantor no longer constitutes a Significant Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary, upon the Company’s written certification thereof to the Agent, the Agent shall release such Person from the duties and requirements of a Guarantor under this Guaranty; provided, however, that such Person shall remain liable for all Guaranteed Obligations which arose during the period such Person constituted a Guarantor; provided, further, that if such Person subsequently constitutes a Significant Domestic Incorporated Subsidiary, such Person shall be required to execute and deliver a Supplement hereto. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Advance or Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable under the Credit Agreement, any Hedging Agreement or any other Loan Document (including a payment exercised through a right of setoff) is rescinded or is or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in each case in its discretion), each of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

Section 5. General Waivers; Additional Waivers.

(A) General Waivers. Each of the Guarantors irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand or action on delinquency, protest, the benefit of any statutes of limitations and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other Person.

(B) Additional Waivers. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Guarantors hereby absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly waives:

(i) any right it may have to revoke this Guaranty as to future indebtedness or notice of acceptance hereof;

I-1-6

(ii) (1) notice of acceptance hereof; (2) notice of any loans or other financial accommodations made or extended under the Loan Documents or the creation or existence of any Guaranteed Obligations; (3) notice of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, subject, however, to each Guarantor’s right to make inquiry of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to ascertain the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations at any reasonable time; (4) notice of any adverse change in the financial condition of any Borrower or of any other fact that might increase such Guarantor’s risk hereunder; (5) notice of presentment for payment, demand, protest, and notice thereof as to any instruments among the Loan Documents; (6) notice of any Unmatured Default or Default; and (7) all other notices (except if such notice is specifically required to be given to such Guarantor hereunder or under the Loan Documents) and demands to which each Guarantor might otherwise be entitled;

(iii) its right, if any, to require the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to institute suit against, or to exhaust any rights and remedies which the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have or may have against, the other Guarantors or any third party, or against any collateral provided by the other Guarantors or any third party; and each Guarantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense (other than the defense that the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid) of the other Guarantors or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the other Guarantors in respect thereof;

(iv) (a) any rights to assert against the Administrative Agent and the Lenders any defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim which such Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against the other Guarantors or any other party liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; (b) any defense, set-off, counterclaim or claim, of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor; (c) any defense such Guarantor has to performance hereunder, and any right such Guarantor has to be exonerated, arising by reason of: the impairment or suspension of the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights or remedies against the other Guarantors; the alteration by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the Guaranteed Obligations; any discharge of the other Guarantors’ obligations to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by operation of law as a result of the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ intervention or omission; or the acceptance by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of anything in partial satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations; and (d) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and any act which shall defer or delay the operation of any statute of limitations applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations shall similarly operate to defer or delay the operation of such statute of limitations applicable to such Guarantor's liability hereunder; and

I-1-7

Bankruptcy Code to limit the amount of, or any collateral securing, its claim against the Guarantors.

Section 6. Subrogation; Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness.

(a) Subrogation. The Guarantors, until the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination or expiration of the Revolving Loan Commitments and all Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement, (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to such Guaranteed Obligations and (ii) waive any right to enforce any remedy which the Lenders or the Administrative Agent now have or may hereafter have against any Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, and the Guarantors waive any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral that may from time to time be given to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to the Lenders. Should any Guarantor have the right, notwithstanding the foregoing, to exercise its subrogation rights prior to the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination or expiration of the Revolving Loan Commitments and all Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably (A) subordinates any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off that such Guarantor may have to the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full in cash (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and (B) waives any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Guaranty, and that the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 6(a).

(b) Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Guarantor agrees that any and all claims of such Guarantor against any Borrower or any other Guarantor hereunder (each an “Obligor”) with respect to any “Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), with respect to any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or against any of its properties shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Guaranteed Obligations; provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing any Guarantor may make loans to and receive payments in the ordinary course with respect to such Intercompany Indebtedness from any Borrower or any other Guarantor to the extent permitted by the terms of this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any right of any Guarantor to ask, demand, xxx for, take or receive any payment from any Obligor, all rights, liens and security interests of such Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any other Obligor shall be and are subordinated to any rights of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent in those assets. No Guarantor shall have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been fully paid and satisfied (in cash) and all Revolving Loan

I-1-8

Commitments and Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement have terminated or expired. If all or any part of the assets of any Obligor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of such Obligor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of any such Obligor is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of any such Obligor are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of any Obligor to any Guarantor (“Intercompany Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or to become due, until such Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have first been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by the applicable Guarantor upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness after any Insolvency Event and prior to the satisfaction of all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and the termination or expiration of all Revolving Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement, such Guarantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Lenders and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the Guarantor where necessary), for application to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Guarantor as the property of the Lenders. If any such Guarantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of its officers or employees is irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Guarantor agrees that until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than the contingent indemnity obligations) have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied and all Revolving Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement have terminated or expired, no Guarantor will assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Administrative Agent or another Obligor) any claim any such Guarantor has or may have against any Obligor.

Section 7. Contribution with Respect to Guaranteed Obligations.

(a) To the extent that any Guarantor shall make a payment under this Guaranty (a “Guarantor Payment”) which, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Guarantor, exceeds the amount which otherwise would have been paid by or attributable to such Guarantor if each Guarantor had paid the aggregate Guaranteed Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion as such Guarantor’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Guarantors as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following payment in full in cash of the Guarantor Payment and the Guaranteed Obligations, and the termination or expiration of all Revolving Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement, such Guarantor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Guarantor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior

I-1-9

to such Guarantor Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty, the amount guaranteed by each Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the extent, if any, required so that its obligations hereunder shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law. In determining the limitations, if any, on the amount of any guarantor’s obligations hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is the intention of the parties hereto that any rights of subrogation, indemnification or contribution which such Guarantor may have under this Guaranty, any other agreement or applicable law shall be taken into account.

(b) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Guarantor shall be equal to the excess of the fair saleable value of the property of such Guarantor over the total liabilities of such Guarantor (including the maximum amount reasonably expected to become due in respect of contingent liabilities, calculated, without duplication, assuming each other guarantor that is also liable for such contingent liability pays its ratable share thereof), giving effect to all payments made by other Guarantors as of such date in a manner to maximize the amount of such contributions.

(c) This Section 7 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Guarantors, and nothing set forth in this Section 7 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty.

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Guarantor or Guarantors to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

(e) The rights of the indemnifying Guarantors against other Guarantors under this Section 7 shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Guaranteed Obligations in cash and the termination or expiry of the Revolving Loan Commitments and all Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement.

Section 8. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Borrower under the Credit Agreement, any Hedging Agreement or any other Loan Document is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or any of its Affiliates, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Hedging Agreement or any other Loan Document shall nonetheless be payable by each of the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.

Section 9. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be given in the manner prescribed in Article XIV of the Credit Agreement, with respect to the Administrative Agent at its notice address therein and with respect to any Guarantor at the address set forth below or such other address or telecopy number as such party may hereafter specify for such purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of such Article XIV.

Section 18. Financial Information. Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of each Borrower, the other Guarantors and any and all endorsers and/or other guarantors of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, that diligent inquiry would reveal, and each Guarantor hereby agrees that none of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall have any duty to advise such

I-1-13

Guarantor of information known to any of them regarding such condition or any such circumstances.

Each Initial Guarantor acknowledges and agrees with the Administrative Agent that the Existing Guaranty is amended, restated, and superseded in its entirety pursuant to the terms hereof. This Guaranty is not intended to and shall not constitute a novation of the Existing Guaranty.

Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Hedging Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 23 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 23 or otherwise under this Guaranty voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 23 shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of this Guaranty with respect to such Guarantor in accordance with Section 4. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 23 constitute, and this Section 23 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

I-1-14

For purposes of this Section 23, “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect of any Hedging Obligation, each Guarantor that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant guaranty or grant of the relevant security interest becomes or would become effective with respect to such Hedging Obligation or such other Person as constitutes an ECP and can cause another Person to qualify as an ECP at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Xxxxxxxx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has entered into that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), dated as of June 19, 2019, by and among the Company and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers parties thereto (together, the “Borrowers” and each individually, a “Borrower”), the financial institutions from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent, which Credit Agreement provides, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, for extensions of credit and other financial accommodations by the Lenders to the Borrowers;

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the extensions of credit by the Lenders under the Credit Agreement that each of the Guarantors (constituting all of the Significant Foreign Subsidiaries of the Foreign Parent Borrower required to execute this Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.2(K) of the Credit Agreement) execute and deliver this Guaranty, whereby each of the Guarantors, without limitation and with full recourse, shall guarantee the payment when due of all of the Obligations, including, without limitation, all principal, interest, letter of credit reimbursement obligations and other amounts that shall be at any time payable by the Foreign Parent Borrower under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and

Each of the Guarantors hereby unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally with the other Guarantors of the Obligations of the Foreign Parent Borrower, the full and punctual payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise) of the Foreign Parent Borrower’s Obligations, including, without limitation, (i) the principal of and interest on each Advance made to the Foreign Parent Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement, (ii) any Reimbursement Obligations of the Foreign Parent Borrower or the performance by the Foreign Parent Borrower of such Reimbursement Obligations, (iii) all other amounts payable by the Foreign Parent Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all Hedging Obligations (subject to the proviso in the second sentence of the definition of “Obligations”), and (iv) the punctual and faithful performance, keeping, observance, and fulfillment by the Foreign Parent Borrower of all of the agreements, conditions, covenants, and obligations of the Foreign Parent Borrower contained in the Loan Documents (all of the foregoing being referred to collectively as the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Upon failure by the Foreign Parent Borrower to pay punctually any such amount or perform such obligation, each of the Guarantors agrees that it shall forthwith on demand pay such amount or perform such obligation at the place and in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement or the relevant Loan Document, as the case may be. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that this Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and is not a guaranty of collection.

(xi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Foreign Parent Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Section 3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder; or

I-2-5

Section 4. Discharge Only Upon Payment In Full; Reinstatement In Certain Circumstances. Each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash and the Revolving Loan Commitments and all Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement shall have terminated or expired. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Guarantor no longer constitutes a Significant Foreign Subsidiary, upon the Company’s written certification thereof to the Agent, the Agent shall release such Person from the duties and requirements of a Guarantor under this Guaranty; provided, however, that such Person shall remain liable for all Guaranteed Obligations which arose during the period such Person constituted a Guarantor; provided, further, that if such Person subsequently constitutes a Significant Foreign Subsidiary, such Person shall be required to execute and deliver a Supplement hereto. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Advance or Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable by the Foreign Parent Borrower or any other party under the Credit Agreement, any Hedging Agreement or any other Loan Document (including a payment exercised through a right of setoff) is rescinded or is or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Foreign Parent Borrower or otherwise (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in each case in its discretion), each of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

Section 5. General Waivers; Additional Waivers.

(A) General Waivers. Each of the Guarantors irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand or action on delinquency, protest, the benefit of any statutes of limitations and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Foreign Parent Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other Person.

(B) Additional Waivers. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Guarantors hereby absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly waives:

(i) any right it may have to revoke this Guaranty as to future indebtedness or notice of acceptance hereof;

I-2-6

Obligations at any reasonable time; (4) notice of any adverse change in the financial condition of the Foreign Parent Borrower or of any other fact that might increase such Guarantor’s risk hereunder; (5) notice of presentment for payment, demand, protest, and notice thereof as to any instruments among the Loan Documents; (6) notice of any Unmatured Default or Default; and (7) all other notices (except if such notice is specifically required to be given to such Guarantor hereunder or under the Loan Documents) and demands to which each Guarantor might otherwise be entitled;

Section 6. Subrogation; Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness.

I-2-7

(a) Subrogation. The Guarantors, until the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination or expiration of the Revolving Loan Commitments and all Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement, (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to such Guaranteed Obligations and (ii) waive any right to enforce any remedy which the Lenders or the Administrative Agent now have or may hereafter have against the Foreign Parent Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, and the Guarantors waive any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral that may from time to time be given to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other liability of the Foreign Parent Borrower to the Lenders. Should any Guarantor have the right, notwithstanding the foregoing, to exercise its subrogation rights prior to the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination or expiration of the Revolving Loan Commitments and all Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably (A) subordinates any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off that such Guarantor may have to the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full in cash (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and (B) waives any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Guaranty, and that the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 6(a).

(b) Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Guarantor agrees that any and all claims of such Guarantor against the Foreign Parent Borrower or any other Guarantor hereunder (each an “Obligor”) with respect to any “Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), with respect to any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or against any of its properties shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Guaranteed Obligations; provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing any Guarantor may make loans to and receive payments in the ordinary course with respect to such Intercompany Indebtedness from the Foreign Parent Borrower or any other Guarantor to the extent permitted by the terms of this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any right of any Guarantor to ask, demand, xxx for, take or receive any payment from any Obligor, all rights, liens and security interests of such Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any other Obligor shall be and are subordinated to any rights of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent in those assets. No Guarantor shall have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been fully paid and satisfied (in cash) and all Revolving Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement have terminated or expired. If all or any part of the assets of any Obligor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of such Obligor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation,

I-2-8

bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of any such Obligor is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of any such Obligor are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of any Obligor to any Guarantor (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any mandatory statutory claims of any Guarantor organized under German law for compensation of annual losses under a control or profit and loss pooling agreement (Beherrschungs- oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag)) (“Intercompany Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or to become due, until such Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have first been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by the applicable Guarantor upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness after any Insolvency Event and prior to the satisfaction of all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and the termination or expiration of all Revolving Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement, such Guarantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Lenders and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the Guarantor where necessary), for application to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Guarantor as the property of the Lenders. If any such Guarantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of its officers or employees is irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Guarantor agrees that until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than the contingent indemnity obligations) have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied and all Revolving Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement have terminated or expired, no Guarantor will assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Administrative Agent or another Obligor) any claim any such Guarantor has or may have against any Obligor.

Section 7. Contribution with Respect to Guaranteed Obligations.

I-2-9

guaranteed by each Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the extent, if any, required so that its obligations hereunder shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law. In determining the limitations, if any, on the amount of any guarantor’s obligations hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is the intention of the parties hereto that any rights of subrogation, indemnification or contribution which such Guarantor may have under this Guaranty, any other agreement or applicable law shall be taken into account.

Section 8. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Foreign Parent Borrower under the Credit Agreement, any Hedging Agreement or any other Loan Document is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Foreign Parent Borrower, the Company or any of its Affiliates, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Hedging Agreement or any other Loan Document shall nonetheless be payable by each of the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.

1. Sharing of Receipts. (a) If any “Sharing Event” (as defined below) has occurred, any amounts received, directly or indirectly, by any Lender from any Guarantor with respect to any “Obligations” (as defined below), including, without limitation, from any setoff of any deposits of any Guarantor or other indebtedness of such Lender held by or owing to any Guarantor and any amounts received by any Lender under or in connection with any Guaranty (in each case, less all reasonable costs incurred in connection with the collection of such amounts) shall be distributed as provided in subsection (b) of this Section 1.

“Sharing Event” shall mean (i) for the Revolving Loans to become or be declared immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Revolving Credit Agreement, (ii) for the 2008 Notes to become or be declared immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1 of the 2008 Note Agreement, (iii) for the 2009 Notes to become or be declared immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1 of the 2009 Note Agreement, (iv) for the entire outstanding principal, interest and other obligations to become or be declared immediately due and payable and the commitments to extend credit thereunder, if any, terminated upon or as a result of any default, event of default or other similar event pursuant to the terms of any New Creditor Agreement, (vi) for the Company to default in the payment of the principal of, interest on or premium with respect to the Revolving Loans, “Reimbursement Obligations” (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) with respect to letters of credit issued thereunder, the 2008 Notes, the 2009 Notes or any loan, letter of credit obligation or other obligation under any New Creditor Agreement when such payment is due, which payment default continues for at least 15 days, in which event the “Sharing Event” shall be deemed to have occurred on the date such payment default first occurred, (vii) for any Lender to setoff any deposits of any Guarantor or other indebtedness of such Lender or any other Lender held by or owing to any Guarantor or exercise or seek enforcement of any right or remedy for payment under any Guaranty made in its favor, or (viii) the commencement by, against or with respect to the Company or any Guarantor of any proceeding under any bankruptcy, reorganization, compromise, arrangement, insolvency, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation or similar law or for the appointment of a receiver for the Company or any Guarantor or any of its assets;

K-3

provided that the voluntary liquidation of any Guarantor into the Company or another Subsidiary of the Company shall not be a “Sharing Event.”

(b) The amounts referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 1 (the “Shared Amounts”) shall be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in proportion to the respective amounts owed by the Company to such Lenders under their respective Financing Agreements and Guarantees (the “Obligations”) at the time of such distribution, including, without limitation, (1) the outstanding principal amount of, accrued and unpaid interest on, and any unpaid “Make- Whole Amount” (as defined in the 2008 Note Agreement and the 2009 Note Agreement, respectively) or other make-whole payment, breakage or prepayment indemnification due with respect to the Revolving Loans, 2008 Notes, 2009 Notes, and obligations owing to New Creditors, (2) any unpaid reimbursement obligations with respect to any letters of credit issued under any Financing Agreement, (3) any undrawn amounts of any outstanding letters of credit issued under any Financing Agreement, and (4) any other unpaid amounts (including amounts in respect of fees, expenses, indemnification and reimbursement) due from the Company under any Financing Agreement (and, for this purpose, the undrawn amounts of any outstanding letters of credit issued under the Financing Agreements shall be considered to have been reduced to the extent of any amount then on deposit with the applicable Lender as provided in subsection (c) of this Section 1). Any distribution pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by the applicable Lender of amounts subject to this Section 1.

(c) Any distribution pursuant to subsection (b) above with respect to the undrawn amount of any outstanding letter of credit shall be paid to the applicable Lender that issued such letter of credit (or its designee) to be held as collateral in respect of obligations owing thereunder and disposed of as provided in this subsection (c). With respect to the Revolving Credit Agreement, such payments shall be made to the Revolving Agent. On each date on which a payment is made to a beneficiary pursuant to a draw on a letter of credit, the applicable Lender that issued such letter of credit (or its designee) shall distribute to the other Lenders subject to the Financing Agreement under which such letter of credit was issued from the amounts held pursuant to this subsection (c) for application to the payment of the reimbursement obligation due to such Lenders with respect to such draw an amount equal to the product of (1) the total amount then held pursuant to this subsection (c), and (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of such draw and the denominator of which is the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding letters of credit issued under the applicable Financing Agreement immediately prior to such draw. On each date on which a reduction in the undrawn amount of any outstanding letter of credit occurs under a Financing Agreement other than on account of a payment made to a beneficiary pursuant to a draw on such letter of credit, the applicable Lender shall distribute from the amounts held pursuant to this subsection (c) an amount equal to the product of (1) the total amount then held pursuant to this subsection (c) in respect of letters of credit issued under such Financing Agreement and (2) a fraction the numerator of which is the amount of such reduction and the denominator of which is the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding letters of credit issued under such Financing Agreement immediately prior to such reduction, which amount shall be distributed as provided in subsection (b) above. At such time as no letters of credit are outstanding under any Financing Agreements, any remaining amount held pursuant to this subsection (c), after the distribution therefrom as provided above, shall be distributed as provided in subsection (b) above.

K-4

(d) The distribution provisions of this Section 1 are for the purpose of determining the relative amounts of any Shared Amounts to be distributed to the Lenders and not for the purpose of creating an agreement among the parties as to the manner in which any Shared Amounts are actually to be applied to pay the Obligations which are owed to each Lender. As among the Lenders, each Lender shall be free, each in its own discretion, to apply any amounts distributed to it pursuant to subsection (b) hereof to the Obligations owed to it in such order as it may determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) for all purposes of this Agreement, the Obligations shall be deemed paid to the same extent that payments are distributed with respect thereto pursuant to subsection (b) hereof notwithstanding the actual application thereof, and (2) as between the Company and the Guarantors, on one hand, and the Lenders, on the other hand, no portion of any Shared Amount received by any Lender and distributed to any other Lender pursuant to subsection (b) hereof shall discharge the Obligations of such other Lender to which such Shared Amount was distributed.

(e) Any Lender distributing any Shared Amount to the other Lenders pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 1 shall be subrogated to the rights of such other Lenders with respect to the Obligations with respect to which such Shared Amount was distributed, including, without limitation, the rights with respect to the applicable Guaranty relating to such Obligations.

2. Notices of Certain Events.

It is acknowledged and agreed that any notice delivered to the Revolving Agent shall be deemed delivered to all Revolving Banks.

Nothing contained in this Agreement (a) shall obligate any Lender to resort to any setoff, application of deposit balance or other means of payment under any Guaranty or avail itself of any recourse by resort to any property of the Company or any Guarantor, the taking of any such action to remain within the absolute discretion of such Lender under its Financing Agreements; (b) shall prohibit any Lender from accelerating the maturity of, or demanding payment from a Guarantor on, any Obligation of the Company to such party or from instituting legal action against the Company or any Guarantor to obtain a judgment or other legal process in respect of such Obligations, but any amounts received

(b) To the extent any Shared Amount received by any Lender which was distributed to the other Lenders pursuant to Section 1(b) hereof is subsequently invalidated, declared fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be paid to a trustee, receiver, or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then each such other Lender shall repay to the distributing Lender, at such time as the distributing Lender is required to return or repay such Shared Amount, the portion of the Shared Amount so distributed to it. To the extent any Shared Amount is so returned or repaid, the Obligations with respect to which such Shared Amount was distributed or applied shall thereupon be reinstated for all purposes of this Agreement.

5. Continuing Agreement. This Agreement shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable agreement, and shall remain in full force and effect until all Obligations shall have been satisfied in full and all obligations of all Lenders to the other Lenders hereunder shall have been satisfied in full. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement shall survive the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization, compromise, arrangement, insolvency, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation or similar proceeding involving the Company or any Guarantor. Each Lender agrees that this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment (in whole or in part) of any of the obligations of the Company or any Guarantor is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Lender, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or any Guarantor or otherwise, as though such payment had not been made.

6. Representations and Warranties. Each of the Revolving Agent, the 2008 Noteholders, the 2009 Noteholders and each New Creditor which from time to time becomes a party hereto, severally represents and warrants to each other party hereto that it has full power, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to fulfill its obligations hereunder, and that no governmental or other authorizations are required in connection herewith, and that this Agreement constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, regulatory and similar laws of general application and by general principles of equity. Each of the Revolving Agent and each New Creditor which from time to time becomes a party hereto as an agent on behalf of other New Creditors, severally represents and warrants to each other party hereto that it has been duly authorized to enter into this Agreement by each lender or New Creditor on whose behalf it acts as agent.

7. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the Lenders and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, if any Lender assigns or otherwise transfers (in whole or in part) to any other person or entity the Obligations to such Lender under the applicable Financing Agreement, such other person or entity shall thereupon become vested with all rights and benefits, and become subject to all the obligations, in respect thereof granted to or imposed upon such Lender under this Agreement.

8. No Reliance by Company. Except as set forth in Section 16, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any rights or obligations under this Agreement or be entitled, in any manner whatsoever, to rely upon or enforce, or to raise as a defense, the provisions of this Agreement or the failure of any Lender to comply with such provisions.

9. Other Proceedings.
