Whenever Company desires that U.S. Swing Line Lender make a U.S. Swing Line Loan under Section 2.1(c)(i)(1), it shall deliver to U.S. Swing Line Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) (or such later time of day as U.S. Swing Line Lender may agree in any instance in its sole discretion) on the date of such Borrowing written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing). Whenever any Borrower desires that European Swing Line Lender make a European Swing Line Loan under Section 2.1(c)(i)(2), the applicable Borrower shall deliver to European Swing Line Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. (London time) (or such later time of day as European Swing Line Lender may agree in any instance in its sole discretion) on the date of such Borrowing written notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing). Each such notice (each a “Notice of Borrowing”), which shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.5 hereto, shall be irrevocable, shall be deemed a representation by Company and the applicable Borrower that all conditions precedent to such Borrowing have been satisfied and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing (stated in the relevant currency), (ii) the date of Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) whether the Loans being made pursuant to such Borrowing are to be Swing Line Loans and, if not, whether such Loans are to be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans and, with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, the Interest Period and Applicable Currency to be applicable thereto (provided that, if such Borrower shall have failed to specify the Type, Applicable Currency or Interest Period of such Loans (and shall not have promptly responded to Administrative Agent’s request for such information), such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Eurocurrency Rate Loan in Dollars, with an Interest Period of one month; provided, further, that if the date of such notice is less than three Business Days from the date of such Borrowing, such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Base Rate Loan in Dollars). Administrative Agent shall as promptly as practicable give each Lender written or telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof and of the other matters covered by the Notice of Borrowing. Without in any way limiting Company and the applicable Borrower’s obligation to confirm in writing any telephonic notice, Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender (in the case of Swing Line Loans) or the respective Facing Agent (in the case of Letters of Credit) may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice believed by Administrative Agent in good faith to be from a Responsible Officer of Company or the applicable Borrower prior to receipt of written confirmation. Administrative Agent’s records shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on Borrowers with respect to evidence of the time and terms of such telephonic Notice of Borrowing.

2.6 Conversion or Continuation. Any Borrower may elect (i) on any Business Day to convert Base Rate Loans or any portion thereof to Eurocurrency Loans, (ii) at the end of any Interest Period with respect thereto, to convert Loans denominated in Dollars that are Eurocurrency Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans or to continue such Eurocurrency Loans or any portion thereof for an additional Interest Period and (iii) at the end of any Interest Period with respect thereto, to continue Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency for an additional Interest Period; provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans for each Interest Period therefor must be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Minimum Borrowing Amount for Eurocurrency Loans or Minimum Borrowing Multiples in excess thereof. Each continuation of Loans shall be allocated among the Loans in the applicable Facility of the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Each such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.6

hereto (a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) and shall be made by giving Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ (or one Business Day in the case of a conversion into Base Rate Loans) prior written notice thereof to the Notice Address given not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) specifying (i) the amount and type of conversion or continuation, (ii) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of Eurocurrency Loans, the Interest Period therefor and (iii) in the case of a conversion, the date of conversion (which date shall be a Business Day). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Loans, and no continuation in whole or in part of Eurocurrency Loans (other than Alternative Currency Loans), shall be permitted at any time at which an Unmatured Event of Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The applicable Borrower shall not be entitled to specify an Interest Period in excess of 30 days, for any Alternative Currency Loan if an Unmatured Event of Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. If, within the time period required under the terms of this Section 2.6, Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the applicable Borrower containing a permitted election to continue any Eurocurrency Loans for an additional Interest Period or to convert any such Loans, then, upon the expiration of the Interest Period therefor, such Loans will be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans or, in the case of an Alternative Currency Loan, Eurocurrency Loans in the same Applicable Currency with an Interest Period of one month. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable.

2.7 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 12:00 p.m. (local time at the place the applicable Borrower receives funding) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing (3:30 p.m. local time at the place of funding in the case of Swing Line Loans), each Lender will make available its Pro Rata Share of Loans of the Borrowing requested to be made on such date in the Applicable Currency and in immediately available funds, at the Payment Office (for the account of such non-U.S. office of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may direct in the case of Eurocurrency Loans) and Administrative Agent will make available to the applicable Borrower at its Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders not later than 2:00 p.m. (local time in the place of payment), or in the case of Swing Line Loans, 3:30 p.m. (local time in the place of payment). Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender at least one Business Day prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of the Borrowing to be made on such date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender on the date of Borrowing, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower and, if so notified, the applicable Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the applicable Borrower interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agent to such Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the rate for Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, as the case may be, applicable during the period in question; provided, however, that any interest paid to

Administrative Agent in respect of such corresponding amount shall be credited against interest payable by such Borrower to such Lender under Section 3.1 in respect of such corresponding amount. Any amount due hereunder to Administrative Agent from any Lender which is not paid when due shall bear interest payable by such Lender, from the date due until the date paid, at the Federal Funds Rate for amounts in Dollars (or at Administrative Agent’s cost of funds for amounts in any Alternative Currency) for the first three days after the date such amount is due and thereafter at the Federal Funds Rate (or such cost of funds rate) plus 1%, together with Administrative Agent’s standard interbank processing fee. Further, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Loans, amounts due with respect to its Letters of Credit (or its participations therein) and any other amounts due to it hereunder first to Administrative Agent to fund any outstanding Loans made available on behalf of such Lender by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.7 until such Loans have been funded (as a result of such assignment or otherwise) and then to fund Loans of all Lenders other than such Lender until each Lender has outstanding Loans equal to its Pro Rata Share of all Loans (as a result of such assignment or otherwise). Such Lender shall not have recourse against any Borrower with respect to any amounts paid to Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the preceding sentence, provided that, such Lender shall have full recourse against Borrowers to the extent of the amount of such Loans it has so been deemed to have made. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights which any Borrower may have against the Lender as a result of any failure to fund or other default by such Lender hereunder.

2.8 Utilization of Multicurrency Revolving Commitments or French Revolving Commitments in an Alternative Currency.

(a) Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount with respect to any i) Borrowing of Multicurrency Revolving Loans and/or French Revolving Loans comprised of Alternative Currency Loans as of the requested date of Borrowing, ii) outstanding Alternative Currency Loans that are Multicurrency Revolving Loans and/or French Revolving Loans as of the last Business Day of each month and iii) outstanding Alternative Currency Loans on the date of any prepayment pursuant to Section 4.3 or 4.4 (each such date under clauses (i) through (iii), a “Computation Date”). Upon receipt of any Notice of Borrowing of Multicurrency Revolving Loans or French Revolving Loans, Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Multicurrency Revolving Lender and/or French Revolving Lender, as applicable, thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or French Pro Rata Share, as applicable, of the Borrowing. In the case of a Borrowing comprised of Alternative Currency Loans, such notice will provide the approximate amount of each Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share or French Pro Rata Share, as applicable, of the Borrowing, and Administrative Agent will, upon the determination of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Borrowing as specified in the Notice of Borrowing, promptly notify each Lender of the exact amount of such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share and/or French Pro Rata Share, as applicable, of the Borrowing.

(b) Company, European Holdco and each Other Subsidiary Borrower that is a Foreign Subsidiary shall be entitled to request that the Multicurrency Revolving Loans and/or French Revolving Loans hereunder also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency (other than Dollars), in addition to the currencies specified in the definition of “Alternative

Currency” herein, that in the reasonable opinion of each of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders and/or French Revolving Lenders, as applicable, is at such time freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets and is freely transferable and freely convertible into Dollars (an “Agreed Alternative Currency”). Company, European Holdco or such Other Subsidiary Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent any request for designation of an Agreed Alternative Currency in accordance with Section 12.3, to be received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of the date of any Borrowing hereunder proposed to be made in such Agreed Alternative Currency. Upon receipt of any such request Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders and/or French Revolving Lenders, as applicable, thereof, and each Multicurrency Revolving Lender will use its best efforts to respond to such request within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof. Each Multicurrency Revolving Lender and/or each French Revolving Lender, as applicable, may grant or accept such request in its sole discretion. Administrative Agent will promptly notify European Holdco or such Other Subsidiary Borrower of the acceptance or rejection of any such request.

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

(d) In the case of a proposed continuation of Multicurrency Revolving Loans or French Revolving Loans denominated in an Agreed Alternative Currency for an additional Interest Period pursuant to Section 2.6, neither the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders nor the French Revolving Lenders shall be under any obligation to continue such Loans if

Administrative Agent has received notice from any of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders or by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) four (4) Business Days prior to the day of such continuation that such Lender cannot continue to provide Loans in the Agreed Alternative Currency, in which event Administrative Agent will give notice to European Holdco not later than 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the requested date of such continuation that the continuation of such Loans in the Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given promptly by Administrative Agent to the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders and/or French Revolving Lenders, as applicable. If Administrative Agent shall have so notified European Holdco that any such continuation of Loans is not then available, any Notice of Continuation/Conversion with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn and such Loans shall be redenominated into Base Rate Loans in Dollars with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Loans. Administrative Agent will promptly notify European Holdco and the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders and/or French Revolving Lenders, as applicable, of any such redenomination and in such notice by Administrative Agent to each Lender will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Alternative Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Lender’s Revolver Pro Rata Share thereof.

(e) If at any time an Alternative Currency Loan denominated in a currency other than Euros is outstanding, the relevant Alternative Currency is replaced as the lawful currency of the country that issued such Alternative Currency (the “Issuing Country”) by the Euro so that all payments are to be made in the Issuing Country in Euros and not in the Alternative Currency previously the lawful currency of such country, then such Alternative Currency Loan shall be automatically converted into an Alternative Currency Loan denominated in Euros in a principal amount equal to the amount of Euros into which the principal amount of such Alternative Currency Loan would be converted pursuant to the EMU Legislation and thereafter no further Alternative Currency Loans will be available in such Alternative Currency, with the basis of accrual of interest, notice requirements and payment offices with respect to such Alternative Currency Loan to be that consistent with the convention and practices in the Euro-zone interbank market for Euro denominated loans.

(f) In each case, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, the applicable Borrowers from time to time, at the request of any Lender, shall pay to such Lender the amount of any losses, damages, liabilities, claims, reduction in yield, additional expense, increased cost, reduction in any amount payable, reduction in the effective return of its capital, the decrease or delay in the payment of interest or any other return forgone by such Lender or its affiliates with respect to an Alternative Currency Loan affected by Section 2.8(e) as a result of the tax or currency exchange resulting from the introduction, changeover to or operation of the Euro in any applicable nation or Eurocurrency market.

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

2.9 Additional Facility.

(a) Borrowers shall have the right at any time so long as (x) no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default then exists and (y) Borrowers shall have delivered to Administrative Agent a Compliance Certificate for the period of four full Fiscal Quarters immediately preceding the incurrence described below (prepared in good faith and in a manner and using such methodology which is consistent with the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.1) giving pro forma effect to such incurrence and evidencing compliance with the covenants set forth in Article IX, and from time to time after the Effective Date to incur from one or more existing Lenders and/or other Persons that are Eligible Assignees and which, in each case, agree to make such loans to the applicable Borrower, loans and commitments to make loans in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $1,000,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof at the time of funding), which loans may be incurred as (i) one or more tranches of additional term loans (the “Additional Term Loans”) as allocated by Administrative Agent and Company that are pari passu in all respects to the Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.1(a) under a facility that would provide that the Additional Term Loans would have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity of not less than the existing Term Loan with the then longest Weighted Average Life to Maturity and a final maturity no earlier than the latest existing Term Maturity Date; provided, that the terms and conditions of any Additional Term Loans shall be substantially similar to those applicable to the existing Term Facilities (other than as to pricing, fees and other economic terms), (ii) increases to one or more existing Term Facilities and/or (iii) increases to the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility; provided that increases to the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility shall not exceed an aggregate of more than $250,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof at the time of funding) (collectively, “Additional Facilities”). Any Person which becomes a Lender with respect to a tranche of Additional Term Loans added pursuant to this Section 2.9 (each such Lender, a “New Term Loan Lender”) hereby acknowledges and agrees that the term of the Multicurrency Revolving Facility and each subfacility thereof may be extended or replaced and that each New Term Loan Lender, solely with respect to the Additional Term Loans held by such New Term Lender, agrees in advance to any changes made to this Credit Agreement in order to implement such extension or replacement (including changes with respect to pricing, fees and other economic terms relating solely to such extended or replaced facility or facilities) as may be reasonably proposed to be made by Company (Company’s signature to be conclusive evidence of such reasonability). Each New Term Loan Lender hereby agrees to take such actions and execute and deliver such amendments, agreements, instruments or documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to give effect to the preceding sentence, provided that the foregoing provision shall not be construed to require a New Term Loan Lender to execute any amendment, agreement, instrument or document which contains changes other than those relating solely to such extended or replaced facility or facilities.

(b) In the event that any Borrower desires to create an Additional Facility, such Borrower will enter into an amendment with the lenders (who shall by execution thereof become Lenders hereunder if not theretofore Lenders) to provide for such Additional Facility, which amendment shall set forth any terms and conditions of the Additional Facility not covered by this Agreement as agreed by the applicable Borrower and such Lenders, and shall provide for the issuance of promissory notes to evidence the Additional Facility if requested by the Lenders making advances under the Additional Facility (which notes shall constitute Term Notes or

Multicurrency Revolving Notes, as applicable, for purposes of this Agreement), with such amendment to be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and consistent with the terms of this Section 2.9(b) and of the other provisions of this Agreement. No consent of any Lender (other than any Lender making loans or whose commitment is increased under the Additional Facility) is required to permit the Loans contemplated by this Section 2.9(b) or the aforesaid amendment to effectuate the Additional Facility. This section shall supercede any provisions contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 12.1, to the contrary.

(c) Procedures for Issuances and Amendments of Letters of Credit. Whenever Company, European Holdco or any Other Subsidiary Borrower (other than a French Borrower) desires that a Letter of Credit be issued, Company shall give Administrative Agent and the respective Facing Agent written notice thereof prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least five Business Days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to such Facing Agent) prior to the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day) which written notice shall be in the form of Exhibit 2.10(c) (each, a “Notice of Issuance”) and may be submitted via facsimile or other electronic image scan transmission (e.g., “pdf” or “tif” via email) to the respective Facing Agent (who may rely upon such facsimile or electronic image scan transmission if it were an original thereof).

(i) Company hereby agrees to reimburse (or cause the applicable Borrower to reimburse) the respective Facing Agent, by making payment to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds in Dollars at the Payment Office, for any payment or disbursement made by such Facing Agent under and in accordance with any Letter of Credit (each such amount so paid or disbursed until reimbursed, an “Unpaid Drawing”), no later than one Business Day after the date on which Company receives notice of such payment or disbursement (if such Unpaid Drawing was in an Alternative Currency, then in the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Unpaid Drawing), with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such Facing Agent, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but excluding the date such Facing Agent is reimbursed therefor by Company at a rate per annum which shall be the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin; provided, however, that, anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) unless Company shall have notified Administrative Agent and the applicable Facing Agent prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following receipt of such notice that the applicable Facing Agent will be reimbursed for the amount of such Unpaid Drawing with funds other than the proceeds of Multicurrency Revolving Loans, Company shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Borrowing to Administrative Agent requesting each Multicurrency Revolving Lender to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans which are Base Rate Loans on the date on which such Unpaid Drawing is honored in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Unpaid Drawing and Administrative Agent shall, if such Notice of Borrowing is deemed given, promptly notify the Lenders thereof and (ii) unless any of the events described in Section 10.1(e) or 10.1(f) shall have occurred (in which event the

procedures of Section 2.10(e) shall apply), each such Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall, on the date such drawing is honored, make Multicurrency Revolving Loans which are Base Rate Loans in the amount of its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Dollar Equivalent of such Unpaid Drawing, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Facing Agent for the amount of such Unpaid Drawing; and provided, further, that, if for any reason, proceeds of Multicurrency Revolving Loans are not received by the applicable Facing Agent on such date in an amount equal to the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of such drawing, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Facing Agent, on the Business Day immediately following the date such drawing is honored, in an amount in same day funds equal to the excess of the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of such drawing over the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Multicurrency Revolving Loans, if any, which are so received, plus accrued interest on such amount at the rate set forth in Section 3.1(a); provided, however, to the extent such amounts are not reimbursed prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day following such payment or disbursement, interest shall thereafter accrue on the amounts so paid or disbursed by such Facing Agent (and until reimbursed by Company) at a rate per annum which shall be the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin plus an additional 2% per annum, such interest also to be payable on demand. The respective Facing Agent shall give Company prompt notice of each Drawing under any Letter of Credit, provided that, the failure to give any such notice shall in no way affect, impair or diminish Company’s obligations hereunder.

(ii) The Obligations of Company under this Section 2.10(d) to reimburse the respective Facing Agent with respect to drawings on Letters of Credit (each, a “Drawing”) (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Borrower may have or have had against any Facing Agent, Agent or any Lender (including in its capacity as issuer of the Letter of Credit or as LC Participant), or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Drawing, the respective Facing Agent’s only obligation to Borrowers being to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Facing Agent under or in connection with any Letter of Credit if taken or omitted in the absence of a bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not create for such Facing Agent any resulting liability to any Borrower.

(e) Letter of Credit Participations.

(i) Immediately upon the issuance by any Facing Agent of any Letter of Credit, such Facing Agent shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Multicurrency Revolving Lender, other than such Facing Agent (each such Lender, in its capacity under this Section 2.10(e), a “LC Participant”), and each such LC Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Facing Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Multicurrency Revolving Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share, in such Letter of Credit, each Drawing made thereunder and the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement with respect thereto (although

Letter of Credit fees shall be payable directly to Administrative Agent for the account of the LC Participant as provided in Section 2.10(g) and the LC Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of the facing fees), and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto. Upon any change in the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders, it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings relating to Letters of Credit, there shall be an automatic adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.10(e) to reflect the new Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the assignor and assignee Lender or of all Lenders with Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, as the case may be.

(ii) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, such Facing Agent shall have no obligation relative to the LC Participants other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Facing Agent under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it if taken or omitted in the absence of a bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not create for such Facing Agent any resulting liability to any Borrower or any Lender.

(f) Draws Upon Letter of Credit; Reimbursement Obligations.

(i) In the event that any Facing Agent makes any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it and Company shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such Facing Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(d), such Facing Agent shall promptly notify Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each LC Participant of such failure, and each such LC Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Facing Agent, the amount of such LC Participant’s applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of such payment in Dollars or, if in an Alternative Currency, in such Alternative Currency and in same day funds; provided, however, that no LC Participant shall be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by such Facing Agent under a Letter of Credit issued by it as a result of acts or omissions constituting a bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction on the part of such Facing Agent. If Administrative Agent so notifies any LC Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) or, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, 11:00 a.m. (London time), on any Business Day, such LC Participant shall make available to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Facing Agent such LC Participant’s applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the extent such LC Participant shall not have so made its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the amount of such payment available to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Facing Agent, such LC Participant agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Facing Agent, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent for the account of such Facing Agent at the overnight Federal

Funds rate. The failure of any LC Participant to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Facing Agent its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it shall not relieve any other LC Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of such Facing Agent its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of any payment under any such Letter of Credit on the day required, as specified above, but no LC Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other LC Participant to make available to Agent for the account of such Facing Agent such other LC Participant’s applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of any such payment.

(ii) Whenever any Facing Agent receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Facing Agent any payments from the LC Participants pursuant to this Section 2.10(f), such Facing Agent shall pay to Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall pay to each LC Participant which has paid its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share thereof, in Dollars or, if in an Alternative Currency, in such Alternative Currency and in same day funds, an amount equal to such LC Participant’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations.

(iii) The obligations of the LC Participants to make payments to each Facing Agent with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it shall be irrevocable and not subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances (although nothing in this clause (iii) shall constitute a waiver of any claims by an LC Participant against Facing Agent that are determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Facing Agent):

(A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(B) The existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), Administrative Agent, any LC Participant, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between any Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

(C) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect to any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(D) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or

(E) the occurrence or continuance of any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default.

(g) Fees for Letters of Credit.

(i) Facing Agent Fees. Company agrees to pay (or to cause the applicable Borrower to pay) in Dollars the following amount to the respective Facing Agent with respect to the Letters of Credit issued by it for the account of any Borrower:

(A) with respect to payments made under any Letter of Credit, interest, payable on demand, on the amount paid by such Facing Agent in respect of each such payment from the date of the payments through the date such amount is reimbursed by Company (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of Multicurrency Revolving Loans at a rate determined in accordance with the terms of Section 2.10(d)(i));

(B) with respect to the issuance or amendment of each Letter of Credit and each payment made thereunder, reasonable documentary and processing charges in accordance with such Facing Agent’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be; and

(C) a facing fee equal to one-eighth of 1% per annum of the Stated Amount of outstanding and undrawn LC Obligations payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the Revolver Termination Date and thereafter, on demand together with customary issuance and payment charges, provided that, a minimum fee of $500.00 per annum shall be payable per Letter of Credit.

(ii) Participating Lender Fees. Company agrees to pay in Dollars to Administrative Agent for distribution to each participating Lender in respect of all Letters of Credit outstanding such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of a commission equal to the then Applicable Eurocurrency Margin for Multicurrency Revolving Loans with respect to the Effective Amount of such outstanding Letters of Credit (the “LC Commission”), payable in arrears on and through each Quarterly Payment Date, on the Revolver Termination Date and thereafter, on demand. The LC Commission shall be computed on a daily basis from the first day of issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days.

Promptly upon receipt by the respective Facing Agent or Administrative Agent of any amount described in clause (i)(A) or (ii) of this Section 2.10(g), such Facing Agent or Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender that has reimbursed such Facing Agent in accordance with Section 2.10(d) its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of such amount. Amounts payable under clause (i)(B) and (C) of this Section 2.10(g) shall be paid directly to such Facing Agent.

(h) Indemnification. In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Agreement, Company hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and hold each Facing Agent harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, reasonable out-of-pocket costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements) (other than for Taxes, which shall be covered by Section 4.7, and Excluded

Taxes) which any Facing Agent may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of the Letters of Credit, or (ii) the failure of any Facing Agent to honor a Drawing under any 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 government or Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Government Acts”); provided, however, that no Facing Agent shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment determines that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, obligations, expenses or liabilities have resulted from the bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Facing Agent, and that nothing contained herein shall affect the express contractual obligations of the Facing Agents to Borrowers contained herein. As between Borrowers and each Facing Agent, Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued by any Facing Agent by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Facing Agent shall not be responsible: (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 or any Drawing under such Letters 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 any such 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 any such Letter of Credit to comply fully 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, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a Drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such 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 each Facing Agent, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of each Facing Agent’s rights or powers hereunder.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by any Facing Agent under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith and in the absence of a bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not put any Facing Agent under any resulting liability to any Borrower.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Borrower shall have any obligation to indemnify any Facing Agent in respect of any liability incurred by such Facing Agent to the extent arising out of the bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Facing Agent. The right of indemnification in the first paragraph of this Section 2.10(h) shall not prejudice any rights that any Borrower may otherwise have against each Facing Agent with respect to a Letter of Credit issued hereunder.

(i) Increased Costs. If at any time after the date hereof the introduction of or any change in any applicable law, rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (other than any law, rule, regulation, guidelines or request relating to taxes that are the subject matter of Section 4.7) or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by each Facing Agent or such Lender with any request or directive by any such authority (whether or not having the force of law or any change in GAAP), shall either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by any Facing Agent or participated in by any Lender, or (ii) impose on any Facing Agent or any Lender any other conditions relating, directly or indirectly, to this Agreement or any Letter of Credit; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Facing Agent or any Lender of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Facing Agent or any Lender hereunder or reduce the rate of return on its capital with respect to Letters of Credit, then, upon demand to Company by the respective Facing Agent or any Lender (a copy of which demand shall be sent by such Facing Agent or such Lender to Administrative Agent), Company shall pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) to such Facing Agent or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction in the amount receivable or reduction on the rate of return on its capital. Each Facing Agent or any Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(i), will give prompt written notice thereof to Company, which notice shall include a certificate submitted to Company by the respective Facing Agent or such Lender (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such Facing Agent or such Lender to Administrative Agent), setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Facing Agent or such Lender, although failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish Company’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(i). The certificate required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 2.10(i) shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on Company.

(j) Outstanding Letters of Credit. The letters of credit set forth under the caption “Letters of Credit outstanding on the Effective Date” on Schedule 2.10(j) annexed hereto and made a part hereof which were issued pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement and remain outstanding as of the Initial Borrowing Date (the “Outstanding Letters of Credit”). Company, each Facing Agent and each of the Lenders hereby agree with respect to the Outstanding Letters of Credit that such Outstanding Letters of Credit, for all purposes under this Agreement shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees to participate in each Outstanding Letter of Credit issued by any Facing Agent in an amount equal to its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Stated Amount of such Outstanding Letter of Credit.

(k) Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.10, no Facing Agent shall be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit at a time when any other Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless such Facing Agent has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it to eliminate such Facing Agent’s risk with respect to any such Defaulting Lender’s reimbursement obligations hereunder (after giving effect to Section 4.1(b)(iii)), including by Cash Collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the liability with respect to such Letter of Credit. Any such Cash Collateral shall

be deposited in a separate interest bearing account with the Administrative Agent, subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, as collateral (solely for the benefit of such Facing Agent) for the payment and performance of each Defaulting Lender’s Commitment Percentage of outstanding Letters of Credit. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse such Facing Agent immediately for each Defaulting Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any drawing under any Letter of Credit which has not otherwise been reimbursed by the Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.10.

2.11 Pro Rata Borrowings. Borrowings of Loans under this Agreement shall be loaned by the applicable Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Commitments. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its Commitments hereunder.

Each Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of such Borrower’s Base Rate Loans from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to such Borrower (or, if such Base Rate Loan was converted from a Eurocurrency Loan, the date of such conversion) until the earlier of (i) the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Base Rate Loan or (ii) the conversion of such Base Rate Loan to a Eurocurrency Loan pursuant to Section 2.6 at a rate per annum equal to the relevant Base Rate plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin.

(b) Eurocurrency Loans. Each Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of such Borrower’s Eurocurrency Loans from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to such Borrower (or, if such Eurocurrency Loan was converted from a Base Rate Loan, the date of such conversion) until the earlier of (i) the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Eurocurrency Loan or (ii) the conversion of such Eurocurrency Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.6 at a rate per annum equal to the relevant Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin.

(e) [RESERVED].

(f) Overnight Rate Loans. Company agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Overnight Rate Loan from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to Company until the maturity of such Overnight Rate Loan at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Euro Rate or Overnight LIBOR Rate, as applicable.

(g) Payment of Interest. Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest accruing pursuant to Section 3.1(i) shall be payable from time to time on demand. Interest shall also be payable on all then outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans and French Revolving Loans on the Revolver Termination Date and on all Loans on the date of repayment (including prepayment) thereof (except that voluntary prepayments of Multicurrency Revolving Loans or French Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans made pursuant to Section 4.3 on any day other than a Quarterly Payment Date or the Revolver Termination Date need not be made with accrued interest from the most recent Quarterly Payment Date, provided such accrued interest is paid on the next Quarterly Payment Date) and on the date of maturity (by acceleration or otherwise) of such Loans. During the existence of any Event of Default, interest on any Loan shall be payable on demand.

(h) Notification of Rate. Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans for any Interest Period, shall promptly notify Borrowers and the Lenders thereof. Such determination shall, absent manifest error and subject to Section 3.6, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto.

(i) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified herein, effective on the date 30 days after the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default (other than the failure to pay Obligations when due or the occurrence of an Event of Default under either Section 10.1(e) or Section 10.1(f) hereunder) and for so long thereafter as any such Event of Default shall be continuing, and effective immediately upon any failure to pay any Obligations or any other amounts due under any of the Loan Documents when due or upon the occurence of an Event of Default under Section 10.1(e) or Section 10.1(f), whether by acceleration or otherwise, the principal balance of each Loan then outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payment on each Loan not paid when due or other amounts then due and payable shall bear interest payable on demand, after as well as before judgment at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.

(j) Maximum Interest. (i) If any interest payment or other charge or fee payable hereunder exceeds the maximum amount then permitted by applicable law, the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to pay the maximum amount then permitted by applicable law and the applicable Borrower shall continue to pay the maximum amount from time to time permitted by applicable law until all such interest payments and other charges and fees otherwise due hereunder (in the absence of such restraint imposed by applicable law) have been paid in full.

(ii) The Borrowers acknowledge that the provisions of Articles L313-1 et seq, R 313-1 and R313-2 of the French consumer code (“Code de la Consommation”) are not applicable to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. Had they been applicable, the parties to this Credit Agreement acknowledge that by virtue of certain characteristics of the Facilities (and in particular the variable interest rate applicable to Loans and the Borrowers’ right to select the currency and the duration of the Interest Period of each Loan) the effective global rate (taux effectif global, the “Effective Global Rate”) cannot be calculated at the date of this Agreement. However, the Borrowers acknowledge that they have received from the Administrative Agent a letter (the “Effective Global Rate Letter”) containing an indicative calculation of the Effective Global Rate, based on figured examples calculated on assumptions as to the term rate (taux de période) and term length (durée de période) set out in the Effective

Global Rate Letter. The Parties acknowledge that the Effective Global Rate Letter forms part of this Agreement.

(k) Interest Act (Canada) Disclosure. Whenever a rate of interest or other rate per annum hereunder is expressed or calculated on the basis of a year (the “deemed year”) which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest or other rate shall be expressed as a yearly rate for purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) by multiplying such rate of interest or other rate by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year. The rates of interest under this Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective rates or yields. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement.

3.2 Fees.

(a) Upfront Fees. Each of Company and European Holdco shall pay the fees as set forth in the fee letters between each of Company and European Holdco and each of DBSI, and DB to Administrative Agent for distribution as set forth therein.

(b) Commitment Fees. Company and/or European Holdco shall pay to Administrative Agent for pro rata distribution to each Non-Defaulting Lender having a Multicurrency Revolving Commitment (based on its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share) and/or a French Revolving Commitment (based on its French Revolver Pro Rata Share) a commitment fee in Dollars (the “Commitment Fee”) for the period commencing on the Initial Borrowing Date to and including the Revolver Termination Date or the earlier termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments or the French Revolving Commitments, as applicable, (and, in either case, repayment in full of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans and/or French Revolving Loans, as applicable, and payment in full or Cash Collateralization of the LC Obligations), computed at a rate equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage per annum on the average daily Total Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitment (with the Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of each Lender determined without reduction for such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of Swing Line Loans outstanding) and on the average daily Total Available French Revolving Commitment. Unless otherwise specified, accrued Commitment Fees shall be due and payable in arrears (i) on each Quarterly Payment Date, (ii) on the Revolver Termination Date, (iii) upon any reduction or termination in whole or in part of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments (but only, in the case of a reduction, on the portion of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments then being reduced) and (iv) upon any reduction or termination in whole or in part of the French Revolving Commitments (but only, in the case of a reduction, on the portion of the French Revolving Commitments then being reduced).

(c) Agency Fees. The applicable Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for its own account, agency and other Loan fees in the amount and at the times set forth in administrative agent letter between Borrowers and Administrative Agent.

3.3 Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest on all Loans and fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days, provided that, interest on all Base Rate Loans and, if denominated in Sterling, Term B Loans, Multicurrency Revolving Loans and French Revolving Loans shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. Each determination of an interest rate by Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on each Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. Administrative Agent shall, at any time and from time to time upon request of any Borrower, deliver to such Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate applicable to Loans pursuant to this Agreement.

3.4 Interest Periods. At the time it gives any Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation, with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, a Borrower shall elect, by giving Administrative Agent written notice, the interest period (each an “Interest Period”) which Interest Period shall, at the option of such Borrower, be one, two, three or six months or, if available to each of the applicable Lenders (as determined by each such applicable Lender in its sole discretion) a nine or twelve month period; provided, further, that:

(a) all Eurocurrency Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

(b) the initial Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Loan shall commence on the date of such Borrowing of such Eurocurrency Loan (including the date of any conversion thereto from a Loan of a different Type) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Eurocurrency Loan shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period;

(c) if any Interest Period relating to a Eurocurrency Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(d) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(e) at any time when an Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default is then in existence, no Interest Period (a) of more than one month may be selected with respect to any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency and (b) may be selected with respect to any Loan denominated in Dollars;

(f) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the applicable Term Maturity Date for any Term Loan, or the Revolver Termination Date for any Multicurrency Revolving Loan or French Revolving Loan; and

(g) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of Term Loans shall be selected which extends beyond any date upon which a mandatory repayment of such Term Loans will be required to be made under Section 4.4(b), (c) or (d) as the case may be, if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such Term Facility which have Interest Periods which will expire after such date will be in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such Term Facility then outstanding less the aggregate amount of such required prepayment.

3.5 Compensation for Funding Losses. The applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurocurrency Loans to the extent not recovered by the Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds and including the compensation payable by such Lender to a Participant) and any loss sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds (including, without limitation, a return on such liquidation or re-employment that would result in such Lender receiving less than it would have received had such Eurocurrency Loan remained outstanding until the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency Loans, but excluding Excluded Taxes) which such Lender may sustain as a result of:

(a) for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or Administrative Agent) a continuation or Borrowing of, or conversion from or into, Eurocurrency Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation (whether or not withdrawn);

(b) any payment, prepayment or conversion or continuation of any of its Eurocurrency Loans occurring for any reason whatsoever on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto;

(c) any repayment of any of its Eurocurrency Loans not being made on the date specified in a notice of payment given by any Borrower; or

(d) (i) any other failure by a Borrower to repay such Borrower’s Eurocurrency Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or (ii) an election made by Borrowers pursuant to Section 3.7. A written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the incurrence of additional amounts owed such Lender under this Section 3.5 and delivered to Borrowers and Administrative Agent by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 3.5 shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded its relevant Eurocurrency Loan through the purchase of a Eurocurrency deposit bearing interest at the Eurocurrency Rate in an amount equal to the amount of that Loan, having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurocurrency deposit from an offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of that Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its Eurocurrency Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this Section 3.5.

3.6 Increased Costs, Illegality, Etc.

(a) Generally. In the event that any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) below, may be made only by the applicable Agent):

(i) in connection with any request for any Eurocurrency Loan conversions or continuations that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank Eurocurrency market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Eurocurrency Rate; or

(ii) at any time that any Lender shall incur increased costs (except for costs resulting from a change in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender) or reduction in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan because of (x) any Change in Law having general applicability to all comparably situated Lenders within the jurisdiction in which such Lender operates since the date of this Agreement such as, for example, but not limited to: (A) a change in the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the principal of or interest on the Notes or any other amounts payable hereunder (except for (1) changes in the basis of taxation of or rate of tax on, or determined by reference to, Excluded Taxes and (2) taxes and other amounts that are the subject of Section 4.7; provided, further, that, if such increased costs are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment to have been imposed as a result of a Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, such Lender will promptly repay to the applicable Borrower the amount of any increased costs paid to such Lender by such Borrower under this Section 3.6) or (B) a change in official reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirements by any Governmental Authority (but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Eurocurrency Rate) and/or (y) other circumstances since the date of this Agreement affecting such Lender or the interbank Eurocurrency market or the position of such Lender in such market (excluding, however, differences in a Lender’s cost of funds from those of Administrative Agent which are solely the result of credit differences between such Lender and Administrative Agent); or

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurocurrency Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any law, directive or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance by any Lender in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the date of this Agreement which materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurocurrency market;

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrowers and, except in the case of clause (i) above, to Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter, (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Eurocurrency Loans shall no longer be available until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing, Notice of

Conversion or Continuation given by any Borrower with respect to Eurocurrency Loans (other than with respect to conversions to Base Rate Loans) which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be deemed rescinded by such Borrower and, in the case of Alternative Currency Loans, such Loans shall thereafter bear interest at a rate equal to Administrative Agent’s cost of funds for such Alternative Currency plus the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender, upon written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (any written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the reasonable basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to Borrowers by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto; however the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish Borrowers’ obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6; provided that no Lender shall be entitled to receive additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6 for periods occurring prior to the 180th day before the giving of such notice) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the applicable Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 3.6(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law. In determining such additional amounts pursuant to clause (y) of the immediately preceding sentence, each Lender shall act reasonably and in good faith and will, to the extent the increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable relate to such Lender’s loans in general and are not specifically attributable to a Loan hereunder, use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable and which cover all loans similar to the Loans made by such Lender whether or not the loan documentation for such other loans permits the Lender to receive increased costs of the type described in this Section 3.6(a).

(b) Affected Loans. At any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.6(a)(ii) or (iii), Borrowers may (and, in the case of a Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.6(a)(iii), shall) either (i) if the affected Loan is then being made initially or pursuant to a conversion, by giving Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on the same date that such Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.6(a)(ii) or (iii), cancel the respective Borrowing, or (ii) if the affected Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan, provided that, if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 3.6(b).

(c) Capital Requirements. Without duplication of Section 3.6(a) hereof, if any Lender determines that any Change in Law by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence of such Lender’s Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender within 15 days after receipt by such Borrower of written demand by such Lender in accordance with the provisions hereof such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital.

(d) Certificates for Reimbursement. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable and which will, to the extent the increased costs or reduction in the rate of return relates to such Lender’s commitments, loans or obligations in general and are not specifically attributable to the Commitments, Loans and obligations hereunder, cover all commitments, loans and obligations similar to the Commitments, Loans and obligations of such Lender hereunder whether or not the loan documentation for such other commitments, loans or obligations permits the Lender to make the determination specified in this Section 3.6. Such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 3.6(d), will give prompt written notice thereof to Borrowers, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish any of Borrowers’ obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6 (provided that no Lender shall be entitled to receive additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6 for periods occurring prior to the 135th day before the giving of such notice); except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 135 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive affect thereof).

(e) Change of Lending Office. Each Lender which is or will be owed compensation pursuant to Section 3.6(a) or (c) will, if requested by any Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to cause a different branch or Affiliate to make or continue a Loan or Letter of Credit or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its branches or Affiliates if in the judgment of such Lender such designation or assignment will avoid the need for, or materially reduce the amount of, such compensation to such Lender and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous in any significant respect to such Lender. The requesting Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable expenses incurred by any Lender in utilizing a different branch or Affiliate pursuant to this Section 3.6(e). Nothing in this Section 3.6(e) shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of Borrowers or the right of any Lender provided for herein.

3.7 Replacement of Affected Lenders. (a) If any Multicurrency Revolving Lender or French Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or otherwise defaults in its Obligations to make Loans or fund Unpaid Drawings, (b) if any Lender (or in the case of Section 2.10(i), any Facing Agent) is owed increased costs under Section 2.10(i), Section 3.6(a)(ii) or (iii) or Section 3.6(c), or Borrowers are required to make any payments under Section 4.7 to any Lender that Company determines are materially in excess of those to the other Lenders, (c) as provided in Section 12.1(c) in the case of certain refusals by a Lender to consent to certain proposed amendment, changes, supplements, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders, or (d) if any Multicurrency Revolving Lender or French Revolving Lender notifies the Administrative Agent that it can no make loans, or continue loans, in any Agreed Alternative Currency pursuant to Sections 2.8(c) or 2.8(d), Borrowers shall have the right to replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other Eligible Assignee or Eligible Assignees, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”), reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, provided that, (i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 3.7, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more assignment

agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of, and participation in Letters of Credit by, the Replaced Lender and (ii) all obligations of Borrowers owing to the Replaced Lender (including, without limitation, such increased costs and excluding those amounts and obligations specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement; and provided further that the lender replacement right set forth above in Section 3.7(d) shall not apply in any instance where five or more Multicurrency Revolving Lenders and/or French Revolving Lenders all make the same notification to the Administrative Agent with respect to a particular Agreed Alternative Currency. Upon the execution of the respective assignment documentation, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the applicable Borrower, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and, unless the Replaced Lender continues to have outstanding Term Loans hereunder, the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, no Lender that acts as a Facing Agent may be replaced hereunder at any time which it has Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Facing Agent (including the furnishing of a standby letter of credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer satisfactory to such Facing Agent or delivering Cash Collateral to such Facing Agent) have been made with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit.

PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS

4.1 Voluntary Reduction of Commitments; Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Voluntary Reduction of Commitments. Upon at least two Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing) to Administrative Agent at the Notice Office (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each Lender), Company shall have the right, without premium or penalty, to terminate the unutilized portion of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, the French Revolving Commitment or the Swing Line Commitment, as the case may be, in part or in whole, provided that, (i) any such voluntary termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments shall apply to proportionately and permanently reduce the Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of each Multicurrency Revolving Lender, (ii) any such voluntary termination of the French Revolving Commitments shall apply to proportionately and permanently reduce the French Revolving Commitment of each French Revolving Lender, (ii) any partial voluntary reduction pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall be in the amount of at least $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount in the relevant currency of the applicable Facility and (iii) any such voluntary termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, French Revolving Commitments or Swing Line Commitment shall occur simultaneously with a voluntary prepayment, pursuant to Section 4.3 to the extent necessary such that (A) the Total Multicurrency Revolving Commitment shall not be

reduced below the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans plus the aggregate LC Obligations and the Swing Line Commitment, (B) the Total French Revolving Commitment shall not be reduced below the aggregate principal amount of outstanding French Revolving Loans and (B) the Swing Line Commitment shall not be reduced below the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swing Line Loans.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 12.1.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.4), 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 any Facing Agent and/or the Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent or requested by the applicable Facing Agent and/or Swing Line Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as Company may request (so long as no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and Company, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, any Facing Agent or any Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, Facing Agent or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Unmatured Event Default or Event of 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 (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Multicurrency Revolving Loans, French Revolving Loans or funded participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (B) such Multicurrency Revolving Loans, French Revolving Loans or funded participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit were made 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 Multicurrency Revolving Loans of, French Revolving Loans of, and funded participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit owed to, all Non-Defaulting

Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Multicurrency Revolving Loans of, French Revolving Loans of, or funded participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 4.1(b)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.1(c) and Section 2.10(e) the “Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share” of each Non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Multicurrency Revolver Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default exists and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (A) the Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans of that Lender.

(iv) Cash Collateral for Letters of Credit. Promptly on demand by a Facing Agent or the Administrative Agent from time to time, Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure with respect to such Facing Agent (after giving effect to Section 4.1(b)(iii) and such Cash Collateral shall be in Dollars). Any such Cash Collateral shall be deposited in a separate account with the Administrative Agent, subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, as collateral (solely for the benefit of such Facing Agent) for the payment and performance of each Defaulting Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of outstanding LC Obligations. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse such Facing Agent immediately for each Defaulting Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of any drawing under any Letter of Credit which has not otherwise been reimbursed by the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender.

(v) Prepayment of Swing Line Loans. Promptly on demand by a Swing Line Lender or the Administrative Agent from time to time, the applicable Borrower shall prepay the Swing Line Loans in an amount of all Fronting Exposure with respect to the Swing Line Lender (after giving effect to Section 4.1(b)(iii)).

(vi) Certain Fees. For any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender (i) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 3.2(b) (and Company shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender) and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any LC Commissions pursuant to Section 2.10(g)(ii) otherwise payable to the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(iv) but instead, the applicable Borrower shall (x) be required to pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender the amount

of such LC Commissions in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Shares allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(iii) and (y) not be required to pay the remaining amount of such LC Commissions that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender.

(vii) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Company, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lenders and the Facing Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans and/or French Revolving Loans, as applicable, of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Multicurrency Revolving Loans and/or French Revolving Loans, as applicable, and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Shares and/or French Pro Rata Shares, as applicable, (without giving effect to Section 4.1(b)(iii)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Company while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

4.2 Mandatory Reduction of Term Commitments. The Term Commitments will terminate in their entirety on the Initial Borrowing Date, after giving effect to the Initial Borrowing on such date.

4.3 Voluntary Prepayments. Borrowers shall have the right to prepay the Loans in whole or in part from time to time on the following terms and conditions:

(a) the applicable Borrower shall give Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice at its Notice Office (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of its intent to prepay the Loans to it, whether such Loans are Term Loans, Multicurrency Revolving Loans, French Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans, the amount of such prepayment and the specific Borrowings to which such prepayment is to be applied, which notice shall be given by the applicable Borrower to Administrative Agent by 12:00 noon (New York City time) at least three Business Days prior in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, at least one Business Day prior in the case of Base Rate Loans and by 11:00 a.m. (local time) in the case of Swing Line Loans on the date of such prepayment and which notice shall (except in the case of Swing Line Loans) promptly be transmitted by Administrative Agent to each of the applicable Lenders;

(b) each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in a principal amount at least equal to the Minimum Borrowing Multiple, provided that, no partial prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto;

(c) Eurocurrency Loans may only be prepaid pursuant to this Section 4.3 on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto or on any other day subject to Section 3.5;

(d) each prepayment in respect of any Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among the Loans comprising such Borrowing, provided, however, that such prepayment shall not be applied to any Multicurrency Revolving Loans or French Revolving Loans of a Defaulting Lender at any time when the aggregate amount of Multicurrency Revolving Loans or French Revolving Loans of any Non-Defaulting Lender exceeds such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of all Multicurrency Revolving Loans or French Revolver Pro Rata Share of all French Revolving Loans, as applicable, then outstanding; and

(e) each voluntary prepayment of Term Loans shall be applied to the Scheduled Term Repayments of the Term Facility or Term Facilities designated by Company (in amounts designated by Company), and within each such Term Loan, shall be applied to reduce the remaining Scheduled Term Repayments on a pro rata basis; provided, however, that Company may designate in a notice to the Administrative Agent that such voluntary prepayment shall be applied first to any specified remaining Scheduled Term Repayment due within 12 months of such voluntary prepayment. Unless otherwise specified by the applicable Borrower, such prepayment shall be applied first to the payment of Base Rate Loans and second to the payment of such Eurocurrency Loans such Borrower shall request (and in the absence of such request, as Administrative Agent shall determine).

The notice provisions, the provisions with respect to the minimum amount of any prepayment, and the provisions requiring prepayments in integral multiples above such minimum amount of this Section 4.3 are for the benefit of Administrative Agent and may be waived unilaterally by Administrative Agent.

4.4 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Prepayment Upon Overadvance. The applicable Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans, French Revolving Loans or the Swing Line Loans on any date on which the aggregate outstanding Effective Amount of such Loans together with the aggregate Effective Amount of LC Obligations in the case of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans (after giving effect to any other repayments or prepayments on such day) exceeds the aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, French Revolving Commitment or the Swing Line Commitment, as the case may be (including, without limitation, on the Revolver Termination Date), in the amount of such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans, the aggregate Effective Amount of LC Obligations exceeds the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments then in effect, Company shall Cash Collateralize LC Obligations by depositing Cash Collateral with Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the positive difference, if any, between the Effective Amount of such LC Obligations and the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments then in effect. Administrative Agent shall establish in its name for the benefit of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders one or more interest bearing collateral accounts (collectively, the “Collateral Account”) into which it shall deposit such Cash Collateral for the LC Obligations.

(b) Scheduled Term A Repayments. Company shall cause to be paid Scheduled Term A Repayments on the Term A Loans until the Term A Loans are paid in full in the amounts and at the times specified in the definition of Scheduled Term A Repayments to the extent that prepayments have not previously been applied to such Scheduled Term A Repayments (and such Scheduled Term A Repayments have not otherwise been reduced) pursuant to the terms hereof.

(c) Scheduled Term B Repayments. Company shall cause to be paid Scheduled Term B Repayments on the Term B Loans until the Term B Loans are paid in full in the amounts and at the times specified in the definition of Scheduled Term B Repayments to the extent that prepayments have not previously been applied to such Scheduled Term B Repayments (and such Scheduled Term B Repayments have not otherwise been reduced) pursuant to the terms hereof.

(d) Scheduled Term C Repayments. Company shall cause to be paid Scheduled Term C Repayments on the Term C Loans until the Term C Loans are paid in full in the amounts and at the times specified in the definition of Scheduled Term C Repayments to the extent that prepayments have not previously been applied to such Scheduled Term C Repayments (and such Scheduled Term C Repayments have not otherwise been reduced) pursuant to the terms hereof.

(e) Mandatory Prepayment Upon Asset Disposition. On the first Business Day after the date of receipt thereof by Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries of Net Sale Proceeds from any Asset Disposition (other than an Asset Disposition permitted by Section 8.3 or Sections 8.4(a) through 8.4(l)), except to the extent that the Net Sale Proceeds of such Asset Disposition, when combined with the Net Sale Proceeds of all such Asset Dispositions, during the immediately preceding twelve month period, do not exceed $150,000,000 plus, if an Aerospace Asset Disposition occurred during such period, 50% of the Net Sale Proceeds from such Aerospace Asset Disposition, Company and European Holdco shall cause an amount equal to 100% of such excess Net Sale Proceeds from such Asset Disposition to be applied as a mandatory repayment of principal of the Loans pursuant to the terms of Section 4.5(a), provided that, the Net Sale Proceeds therefrom shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default then exists and such Net Sale Proceeds are used to purchase assets used or to be used in the businesses referred to in Section 8.11 within 360 days following the date of such Asset Disposition; provided, further, that (1) if all or any portion of such Net Sale Proceeds are not so used (or contractually committed to be used) within such 360 day period, such remaining portion shall be applied on the last day of the respective period as a mandatory repayment of principal of outstanding Loans as provided above in this Section 4.4(e) and (2) if all or any portion of such Net Sale Proceeds are not required to be applied on the 360th day referred to in clause (1) above because such amount is contractually committed to be used and subsequent to such date such contract is terminated or expires without such portion being so used, then such remaining portion shall be applied on the date of such termination or expiration as a mandatory repayment of principal of outstanding Loans as provided in this Section 4.4(e).

(f) Mandatory Prepayment With Excess Cash Flow. On each Excess Cash Payment Date, Company and European Holdco shall cause an amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow of Company and its Subsidiaries for the most recent Excess Cash Flow Period ending

prior to such Excess Cash Payment Date to be applied as a mandatory repayment of principal of the Loans pursuant to the terms of Section 4.5(a), provided that, so long as no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default then exists, if (x) the Leverage Ratio as of the last day of such most recent Excess Cash Flow Period is less than 3.50:1.0 or (y) the Xxxxx’x Rating is at least Ba3 and the S&P Rating is at least BB-, then, Company and European Holdco shall not be required to apply any portion of Excess Cash Flow as a mandatory repayment of Loans as provided above in this Section 4.4(f)).

(g) Mandatory Prepayment Upon Recovery Event. Within ten (10) days following each date on which Company or any of its Subsidiaries receives any proceeds from any Recovery Event, except to the extent that the net proceeds of such Recovery Event (including without limitation any disposition under Section 8.4(m)), when combined with the net proceeds of all other Recovery Events during the immediately preceding twelve month period, do not exceed $150,000,000, Company and European Holdco shall cause an amount equal to 100% of the proceeds of such Recovery Event (net of reasonable costs and taxes incurred in connection with such Recovery Event) to be applied as a mandatory repayment of principal of the Loans pursuant to the terms of Section 4.5(a), provided that, so long as no Event of Default then exists, the net proceeds from any Recovery Event shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that any Borrower has delivered a certificate to Administrative Agent on or prior to such date stating that such proceeds shall be used to replace or restore any properties or assets in respect of which such proceeds were paid within 360 days following the date of the receipt of such proceeds (which certificate shall set forth the estimates of the proceeds to be so expended); provided, further, that

(i) if all or any portion of such proceeds not required to be applied to the repayment of Loans pursuant to the first proviso of this Section 4.4(g) are not so used (or contractually committed to be used) within 360 days after the day of the receipt of such proceeds, such remaining portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as a mandatory repayment of principal of the Loan as provided in this Section 4.4(g) and

(ii) if all or any portion of such proceeds are not required to be applied on the 360th day referred to in clause (i) above because such amount is contractually committed to be used and subsequent to such date such contract is terminated or expires without such portion being so used, then such remaining portion shall be applied on the date of such termination or expiration as a mandatory repayment of principal of outstanding Loans as provided in this Section 4.4(g).

4.5 Application of Prepayments.

(a) Prepayments. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, all prepayments of principal made by any Borrower pursuant to Section 4.4(e) through (g) shall be applied (i) (1) if no Event of Default exists, to the Scheduled Term Repayments of the Term Facility or Term Facilities designated by Company (in amounts designated by Company); and (2) if an Event of Default exists, first to the pro rata payment of the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans (with the applicable Term Percentage of such repayment to be applied as a repayment of each of the Term Facilities) and second to the pro rata payment of the then outstanding balance of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans and French Revolving Loans (pro rata

among such Facilities) and the Cash Collateralization of LC Obligations; (ii) within each of the foregoing Loans, first to the payment of Base Rate Loans and second to the payment of Eurocurrency Loans; and (iii) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, in such order as such Borrower shall request (and in the absence of such request, as Administrative Agent shall determine). Each prepayment of Term Loans made pursuant to Section 4.4(e) through (g) shall be allocated within each Term Loan to reduce the remaining Scheduled Term Repayments on a pro rata basis. If any prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount, such Borrowing shall immediately be converted into Base Rate Loans. All prepayments shall include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount so prepaid, shall be applied to the payment of interest before application to principal and shall include amounts payable, if any, under Section 3.5. No payments made pursuant to Sections 4.3, 4.4, or 4.5 by any Borrower that is a Foreign Subsidiary shall be allocated to the repayment of a U.S. Borrowing.

(b) Payments. All regular installment payments of principal on the Term Loans shall be applied (i) first to the payment of Base Rate Loans and second to the payment of Eurocurrency Loans and (ii) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, in such order as the applicable Borrower shall request (and in the absence of such request, as Administrative Agent shall determine). All payments shall include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount so paid, shall be applied to the payment of interest before application to principal and shall include amounts payable, if any, under Section 3.5.

4.6 Method and Place of Payment.

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto, not later than 12:00 Noon (local time in the city in which the Payment Office for the payment is located) on the date when due and shall be made in the currency such Loan was advanced and in each case to the account specified therefor for Administrative Agent or if no account has been so specified at the Payment Office, it being understood that with respect to payments in Dollars, written telex or telecopy notice by Company to Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in Company’s account at the Payment Office shall constitute the making of such payment to the extent of such funds held in such account. Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon (local time in the city in which the Payment Office for the payment is located on such day)) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or fees ratably to the Lenders entitled to receive any such payment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If and to the extent that any such distribution shall not be so made by Administrative Agent in full on the same day (if payment was actually received by Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon (local time in the city in which the Payment Office for the payment is located on such day)), Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender its ratable amount thereof and each such Lender shall be entitled to receive from Administrative Agent, upon demand, interest on such amount at the overnight Federal Funds Rate (or the applicable cost of funds with respect to amounts denominated in an Alternative Currency) for each day from the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent pays such amount to such Lender.

(b) [RESERVED].

(c) Any payments under this Agreement which are made by any Borrower later than 12:00 Noon (local time in the city in which the Payment Office for the payment is located) shall, for the purpose of calculation of interest, be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension, except that with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, if such next succeeding Business Day is not in the same month as the date on which such payment would otherwise be due hereunder or under any Note, the due date with respect thereto shall be the next preceding applicable Business Day.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (a) and (c), if any Defaulting Lender shall have failed to fund all or any portion of any Multicurrency Revolving Loan or French Revolving Loan (each such Multicurrency Revolving Loan and/or French Revolving Loan, an “Affected Loan”), each payment by any Borrower hereunder shall be applied first to such Affected Loan and the principal amount and interest with respect to such payment shall be distributed (i) to each Non-Defaulting Lender who is a Multicurrency Revolving Lender and/or a French Revolving Lender, as applicable, pro rata based on the outstanding principal amount of Affected Loans owing to all Non-Defaulting Lenders, until the principal amount of all Affected Loans has been repaid in full and (ii) to the extent of any remaining amount of such payment, to each Multicurrency Revolving Lender and/or French Revolving Lender, as applicable, as set forth in clauses (a) and (c) above. Each payment made by the Borrower on account of the interest on any Affected Loans shall be distributed to each Non-Defaulting Lender pro rata based on the outstanding principal amount of Affected Loans owing to all Non-Defaulting Lenders.

4.7 Net Payments.

(a) All payments made by or on behalf of Borrowers to or on behalf of any Lender or Agent hereunder or under any Loan Document will be made without recoupment, setoff, counterclaim or other defense. Notwithstanding any other provision in any Loan Document, except as provided in this Section 4.7, all payments hereunder and under any of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, payments on account of principal and interest and fees) to or on behalf of any Lender or Agent shall be made by or on behalf of Borrowers free and clear of and without withholding for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other charge of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority, but excluding therefrom:

(i) Excluded Taxes;

(ii) in the case of any Lender or Agent that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (each being referred to as a “Non-U.S. Participant”), any Taxes imposed by the United States by means of withholding at the source unless such withholding (a) results from a change in applicable law, treaty or regulations or the interpretation or administration thereof by any authority charged with the administration

thereof subsequent to the date of this Agreement or (b) is imposed on payments with respect to a Lender’s interest in the Loan Documents acquired under Section 3.7, Section 12.6, or Article XIII;

(iii) any Taxes to the extent such Taxes would be avoided if the Lender or Agent provided the forms required under Section 4.7(d), unless (A) the Lender or Agent is not legally entitled to provide the forms (1) as a result of a change in applicable law, treaty, or regulations or interpretation or administration thereof by any authority charged with the administration thereof subsequent to the date such Lender or Agent becomes a Lender or Agent under a Loan Document or (2) after the Lender acquired an interest in the Loan Documents under Section 3.7, Section 12.6, or Article XIII or (B) the Lender or Agent is not providing the forms under Section 4.7(d)(iii) because the Lender or Agent determines (in its good faith judgment) that it is not legally entitled to provide the forms or that providing the forms would prejudice or disadvantage the Lender or Agent in any significant respect;

(iv) in the case of any Participant or Assignee that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), any Taxes imposed by the United States by means of withholding at the source that are in effect on the date such Participant or Assignee becomes a party to this Agreement or any Loan Document, except to the extent (i) the person that assigned or transferred the interest to the Participant or Assignee was entitled to reimbursement for such taxes under this Section 4.7 or (ii) the Participant or Assignee becomes a party to a Loan Document under Section 3.7, Section 12.6, or Article XIII;

(v) [Reserved]

(vi) any United Kingdom taxes required to be deducted or withheld (a “UK Tax Deduction”) from a payment of interest under any Loan Document if on the date on which the payment falls due:

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

(B) the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of sub-paragraph (b) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender and that relevant Lender has not given a Tax Confirmation to the Company where the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a UK Tax Deduction if that Lender had given a Tax Confirmation to the Company, on the basis that the Tax Confirmation would have enabled the Company to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the Taxes Act; or

(C) the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely under sub-paragraph (b) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender; an officer of HM Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) has given (and not revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 931 of

the Taxes Act (as that provision has effect on the date on which the relevant Lender became a Lender) which relates to that payment and that Lender has received from a UK Borrower or Company a certified copy of that Direction; and the payment could have been made to the Lender without any UK Tax Deduction in the absence of that Direction; or

(D) the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the UK Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 4.7(d)(iii); and

(vii) any taxes imposed on any “withholdable payment” payable to a Non-U.S. Participant Lender as a result of such Lender’s failure to comply with the applicable requirements as set forth in FATCA after December 31, 2012.

(viii) any Polish taxes required to be deducted or withheld (a “Polish Tax Deduction”) from a payment of interest under any Loan Document if on the date on which the payment falls due:

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

(B) the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Polish Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 4.7(d)(iii).

(b) If any Borrower is required by law to make any deduction or withholding of any Taxes from any payment due hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents (except for Taxes excluded under Section 4.7(a)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) and (viii)), then the amount payable will be increased to such amount which, after deduction from such increased amount of all such taxes required to be withheld or deducted therefrom, will not be less than the amount due and payable hereunder had no such deduction or withholding been required. If any Borrower makes any payment hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents in respect of which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding of any Taxes, it shall pay the full amount to be deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation or other Governmental Authority within the time allowed for such payment under applicable law and shall deliver to the Agent within 30 days after it has made such payment to the applicable authority a receipt issued by such authority evidencing the payment to such authority of all amounts so required to be deducted or withheld from such payment or such other evidence of payment that is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

(c) (i) Without prejudice to the provisions of Section 4.7(a), if any Lender, or Administrative Agent on its behalf, is required by law to make any payment on account of Taxes

100

on or in relation to any amount received or receivable hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents by such Lender, or Administrative Agent on its behalf, or any cost, loss or liability for Tax in respect to any such payment is imposed, levied or assessed against any Lender or Administrative Agent on its behalf, the applicable Borrower will promptly indemnify such person against such Tax payment or cost, loss or liability, together with any interest, penalties and expenses (including counsel fees and expenses but excluding any taxes described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 4.7(a)) payable or incurred in connection therewith, including any Tax of any Lender arising by virtue of payments under this Section 4.7(c), computed in a manner consistent with this Section 4.7(c). A certificate (showing in reasonable detail the basis for such calculation) as to the amount of such payment by such Lender, or Administrative Agent on its behalf, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto for all purposes; and

(ii) Each Lender and each Facing Agent shall indemnify the Administrative Agent within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Excluded Taxes, together with any interest, penalties and expenses (including counsel fees and expenses associated with such Excluded Tax) and any taxes imposed as a result of the receipt of the payment under this Section 4.7(c)(ii), attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent, whether or not such Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender and each Facing Agent hereby authorize Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Facing Agent, as the case may be, under any Loan Document against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this Section 4.7. The agreements in this Section 4.7 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of Administrative Agent. Company shall also indemnify Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for any amount attributable to Excluded Taxes, together with any interest, penalties and expenses (including counsel fees and expenses associated with such Excluded Tax) and any taxes imposed as a result of the receipt of the payment under this Section 4.7(c)(ii), in each case, arising under FATCA which a Lender or a Facing Agent for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to Administrative Agent as required by this Section 4.7(c)(ii); provided, that such Lender or Facing Agent, as the case may be, shall indemnify Company to the extent of any payment the U.S. Borrower makes to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 4.7(c)(ii).

(d) (i) Each Lender or Agent that is a Non-U.S. Participant agrees to deliver to Company and Administrative Agent on or prior to the Initial Borrowing Date, or in the case of a Lender or Agent that becomes a party to a Loan Document on a later date, the date such Lender or Agent becomes a party to a Loan Document, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, (a) two (or more, as reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent) accurate and properly completed original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or W-8IMY (or successor forms), or (b), (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.7(d) (any such certificate, a “Section 4.7(d) Certificate”) and (y) two (or more, as reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent) accurate and properly completed original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form) or, in the case of a partnership, IRS Form W-8IMY (or successor form) accompanied by an IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form) from each of its partners or members. In addition, each such Non-U.S. Participant agrees

101

that from time to time after the Initial Borrowing Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will timely deliver to Company and Administrative Agent two (or more, as reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent) new accurate and properly completed original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or W-8IMY, or IRS Form W-8BEN (or, in the case of a partnership, IRS Form W-8IMY and accompanying IRS Forms W-8BEN) and a Section 4.7(d) Certificate, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender or Agent to a continued exemption from (or reduction in) United States withholding Tax with respect to payments under any Loan Document. To the extent a Non-U.S. Participant is unable to deliver the forms required under this Section 4.7(d)(i), or the forms previously delivered are inaccurate in any material respects, it shall immediately notify Company and Administrative Agent.

(ii) Each Lender and Agent that is a U.S. Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) and that is not a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, agrees to deliver to Company and Administrative Agent on or prior to the Initial Borrowing Date, or in the case of a Lender or Agent that becomes a party to a Loan Document on a later date, the date the Lender or Agent becomes a party to such Loan Document, two accurate and properly completed original signed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) certifying to such Lender’s or Agent’s entitlement to receive payments under such Loan Document without deduction for United States backup withholding tax.

(iii) Each Lender and Agent shall, if requested by Company or Administrative Agent, within a reasonable period of time after such request, provide to Company, Administrative Agent or the applicable Governmental Authority any other tax forms or other documents or complete other formalities necessary or appropriate to avoid (or reduce) withholding for or on account of any Taxes imposed on payments under the Loan Documents pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of Company, European Holdco or any Other Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, provided, however, that no Lender or Agent shall be required to provide forms or documents or complete other formalities under this Section 4.7(d)(iii) to the extent the Lender or Agent determines (in its good faith discretion) that it is not legally entitled to do so or that providing such forms or documents or completing the other formalities would prejudice or disadvantage the Lender or Agent in any significant respect. To the extent that a Lender or Agent is unable to deliver the forms or documents or complete the other formalities required under this Section 4.7(d)(iii) or the previous forms delivered are inaccurate in any material respects, the Lender or Agent shall promptly notify Company and Administrative Agent.

(A) Nothing in this Section 4.7(d)(iii) shall require a Treaty Lender to (1) register under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, (2) apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to any Loan if it has so registered, or file Treaty forms if it has (x) included an indication that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with Section 4.7(d)(iii)(B) or (D) below, and the Borrower making that payment has not complied with its obligations under Section 4.7(d)(iii)(C), (E) or (G) below. Where a Borrower has been unable to comply with its obligations under Section 4.7(d)(iii)(C) or (E) due to the failure of the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender to provide the indication

102

described in Section 4.7(d)(iii)(B) or (D) (as the case may be), such inability shall not constitute an Event of Default.

(B) A Treaty Lender which becomes a Party to this Agreement on the date on which this Agreement is entered into that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall make an indication to that effect by providing its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of residence to the Administrative Agent or the Company on or before the date of this Agreement.

(1) each UK Borrower shall, provided that they receive such indication timely, file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HMRC within 30 days of the date of this Agreement and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing; and

(2) each Additional UK Borrower shall, to the extent that that Lender is a Lender under a Facility made available to that Additional UK Borrower pursuant to Section ‎2.1, file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HMRC within 30 days of becoming an Additional UK Borrower and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing.

(D) A Transferee that is a Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes for that scheme to apply to this Agreement shall include an indication to that effect in the forms and certificates provided in accordance with Section 4.7(d) which it executes by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence.

(E) Where a Transferee includes the indication described in Section 4.7(d)(iii)(F) above in the relevant forms and certificates provided in accordance with Section 4.7(d):

(1) each UK Borrower which is a Party as a Borrower as at the relevant transfer date shall, provided that they receive such indication timely, to the extent that that Transferee becomes a Lender under Commitments made available to that Borrower pursuant to Section 2.1 file a duly completed form DTTP2 with HMRC within 30 days of that transfer date and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing; and

(2) each Additional UK Borrower which becomes an Additional UK Borrower after the relevant Transfer Date shall, to the extent that that the Transferee is a Lender under a Facility which is made available to that Additional UK Borrower pursuant to Section ‎2.1, file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HMRC

103

within 30 days of becoming an Additional UK Borrower and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing.

(F) If a Lender has not included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with Section 4.7(d)(iii)(B) or (D) above, then, in either case, no Borrower shall file any form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment(s) or its participation in any Loan.

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

(H) A Transferee that is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of sub-paragraph (b) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender shall provide a Tax Confirmation in the forms and certificates provided in accordance with Section 4.7(d) which it executes by including whether it falls within sub-paragraph (b)(i), (ii) or (iii) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender. Such a Lender shall promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set out in the Tax Confirmation.

(iv) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender fails 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 Company and Administrative Agent (A) a certification signed by the chief financial officer, principal accounting officer, treasurer or controller, and (B) other documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower and Administrative Agent sufficient for Company and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such applicable reporting requirements. To the extent that the relevant documentation provided pursuant to this Section 4.7(d)(iv) is rendered obsolete or inaccurate in any material respects as result of change in circumstances with respect to the status of a Lender, such Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, deliver to Company and Administrative Agent revised and/or updated documentation sufficient for Company and the Administrative Agent to confirm such Lender’s compliance with their obligations under FATCA.

(e) Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of the occurrence of any event or the existence of any condition that would cause any Borrower to make a payment in respect of any Taxes to such Lender pursuant to Section 4.7(a) or a payment in indemnification for any Taxes pursuant to Section 4.7(c), it will use reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain the Loan or other Facility (or portion of either) or participation in Letters of Credit (or portions thereof) of such Lender with respect to which the aforementioned payment is or would be made through another lending office of such Lender or will assign its Loans to another Eligible Assignee if as a result thereof the additional amounts which would otherwise be

104

required to be paid by any Borrower in respect of such Loans or other Facility (or portions of either) or participation in Letters of Credit (or portions thereof) pursuant to Section 4.7(a) or Section 4.7(c) would be materially reduced, and if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, the making, funding or maintaining of such Loans or other Facility (or portions of either) or participation in Letters of Credit (or portions thereof) through such other lending office would not be otherwise significantly disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable expenses incurred by any Lender in utilizing another lending office of such Lender pursuant to this Section 4.7(e).

(f) If any Borrower shall pay any Taxes pursuant to this Section 4.7 and any Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent at any time thereafter receives a refund of such Taxes or, as determined in its sole judgment, a direct credit with respect to the payment of such Taxes, then such Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Borrower the amount of such refund or credit net of all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent to obtain such refund or credit and without interest except for any interest paid by the relevant Government Authority with respect to the refund); provided, however, that such Borrower agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower under this Section 4.7(f) (plus any penalties, interest, and other related charges) to the Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent in the event the Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent is required to repay the refund to the Government Authority.

(g) Without prejudice to the provisions of Section 4.7, any Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement and directly lends any amount to a Borrower resident for tax purposes in Spain (“Spanish Borrower”), shall promptly make an indication to such Spanish Borrower if such Lender is, enters or ceases to be in any of the following situations:

(A) being a Spanish credit entity or financial credit establishment registered with the Bank of Spain to which the provisions set out in the first paragraph of section (c) of Article 59 of Spanish Royal Decree 1777/2004 of 30 July 2004 apply; or

(B) being a Spanish permanent establishment of a non-Spanish financial institution to which the provision set out in the second paragraph of Article 8.1 of Spanish Royal Decree 1776/2004 of 30 July 2004 apply, and provided that the income derived from the interest paid by the Spanish Borrower is effectively connected to such Spanish permanent establishment; or

(C) being a resident for tax purposes in a member state of the European Union (other than Spain) not acting for the purposes of this contract through a permanent establishment in Spain or being a permanent establishment of such European Union resident located in another member state of the European Union (other than Spain), provided that they are not acting through a territory considered a tax haven (as defined in the Spanish tax regulations) and provided that the income derived from the interest paid by the Spanish Borrower is effectively connected to such European Union resident or European Union permanent establishment; or

105

(D) being a Lender, which is treated as a resident of a jurisdiction having a double taxation agreement with Spain, and provided that it does not carry on a business in Spain through a permanent establishment to which the income derived from the interest paid by the Spanish Borrower is effectively connected;

(h) Lenders which are in any of the situations described in Section 4.7(g) shall promptly provide such Spanish Borrower, and before any payment made from the Spanish Borrower to such Lenders is due in any case, with the appropriate documentation certifying such situations, unless they are not entitled to provide said documentation as a result of a change in the applicable law, regulations or their interpretation by any authority or in their good faith judgment:

(A) issued by the Spanish tax authorities or by the Bank of Spain, should the borrower be in the situation described in section 4.7(g)(A) or (B).

(B) issued by the relevant authorities of the member State of the European Union where such Lender is resident for tax purposes, should the borrower be in the situation described in section 4.7(g)(C).

(C) issued by the relevant authorities of the jurisdiction where such Lender is resident for tax purposes, should the borrower be in the situation described in Section 4.7(g)(D). In such a case, the certificate issued by the relevant authorities must expressly state that it is issued for the purposes of the relevant Double Tax Treaty.

If said documentation is not before any payment for a justified reason, the relevant Lender will not be relieved from the obligation established in this section and hence will be obliged to make its best efforts to obtain it and provide the Spanish Borrower with it.

(i) In those cases, unless due to the relevant Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence, where the relevant Lender does not comply with its obligations under Sections 4.7(g) and 4.7(h), the Spanish Borrower shall make the payments due to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, payments on account of principal and interest and fees), free and clear of and without withholding for or on account of any tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other charge of whatever nature, which would be applicable if the Lender had not provided the Spanish Borrower with the appropriate documentation (as described in Section 4.7(h)).

However, in case of Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence to comply with its obligations under Sections 4.7(g) and 4.7(h) the Spanish Borrower shall be entitled to apply, without any gross-up, the relevant withholding for or on account of any tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other charge of whatever nature imposed by a Governmental Authority of Spain which would be applicable on the payments due to, but only in the excess over the withholding tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other charge of whatever nature imposed by a Governmental Authority of Spain, which would have been applicable if the Spanish Borrower had had the appropriate documentation under Section 4.7(h).

6.5 Financial Statements; Financial Condition; Undisclosed Liabilities Projections; Etc.

(ii) no Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) or the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) has incurred, intends to, or believes that it will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as such debts mature; and

(iii) each Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) will have sufficient capital with which to conduct its business. For purposes of this Section 6.5(b) “debt” means any liability on a claim, and “claim” means (y) any right to payment, whether or not such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured, or unsecured (including all obligations, if any, under any Plan or the equivalent for unfunded past service liability, and any other unfunded medical and death benefits) or (z) any right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a payment,

As of the Initial Borrowing Date (and after giving effect to the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby), Borrowers do not know of any basis for the assertion against Company or any Subsidiary of any liability or obligation of any nature whatsoever that is not reflected in the financial statements or the notes related thereto delivered pursuant to Section 6.5(a) which, either individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to be material to Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Each of Company and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed with the appropriate taxing authority, all material returns, statements, forms and reports for taxes (the “Returns”) required to be filed by or with respect to the income, properties or operations of Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries. The Returns accurately reflect all material liability for taxes of Company and its Subsidiaries for the periods covered thereby. Each of Company and each of its Subsidiaries has paid all material taxes owed by it other than those contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been established in conformity with GAAP or their equivalent in the relevant jurisdiction of the taxing authority.

Except as disclosed to the Lenders in writing or in the Form 10-K or Form 10-Q, neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has knowledge of any material income tax liability with respect to open taxable years in excess of amounts accrued for current taxes on such Person’s financial statements for its most recently ended Fiscal Year.

All reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders to obtain such an opinion shall be paid by Company.

7.15 Post-Closing Covenant. On or prior to January 14, 2011 (which date may be extended in the reasonable discretion of Administrative Agent so long as the Borrowers and Pledgors are diligently pursuing their obligations under this Section 7.15 to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent), the applicable Subsidiaries shall have delivered to Administrative Agent:

Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, Agent shall have no duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the financial institution serving in such capacity or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

EACH LENDER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT AGENT SHALL NOT HAVE, BY REASON OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, A FIDUCIARY RELATIONSHIP TO OR IN RESPECT OF ANY LENDER. Nothing in any of the Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of any of the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Each Lender shall make its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Borrowers in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the credit worthiness of each Borrower, and Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter.

Agent may at any time request instructions from the Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals (including the failure to act or approve) which by the terms of any of the Loan Documents, Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and if such instructions are requested, Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting, approving or refraining from acting or approving under any of the Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders or, to the extent required by Section 12.1, all of the Lenders.

The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 11.5 shall survive the payment in full of the Notes and the termination of this Agreement.

For purposes hereof, “Aggregate Pro Rata Share” means, when used with reference to any Lender and any described aggregate or total amount, an amount equal to the result obtained by multiplying such desired aggregate or total amount by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s Multicurrency Revolving Loan, French Revolving Loan and Term Loans and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate of all of the Loans outstanding hereunder.

150

In the event that Agent receives such a notice, Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

11.8 Holders of Obligations. Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Obligation as reflected on the books and records of Agent as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been filed with Agent pursuant to Section 12.8(c).

11.9 Resignation by Administrative Agent.

(a) Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice to Company and the Lenders.

152

(f) Nothing in this Section 11.10 shall require UK Security Trustee or any other agent or trustee to act as a trustee at common law or to be holding any property on trust, in any jurisdiction outside the United States or the United Kingdom which may not operate under principles of trust or where such trust would not be recognized or its effects would not be enforceable.

The payment undertaking of each Credit Party to Collateral Agent under this Section 11.12 is hereinafter referred to as a “Parallel Debt”.

(b) Parallel Debt as Independent Payment Obligation. For the avoidance of doubt it is confirmed that Section 11.12(a) means that each Parallel Debt constitutes a payment obligation of the relevant Credit Party to Collateral Agent which is separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, its Principal Obligations and shall become due and payable to Collateral Agent as soon as, and to the extent that, any amount owed by such Credit Party to the relevant Secured Party under its Principal Obligations becomes due and payable.

(c) Acknowledgment of Parallel Debt Obligation. Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges that each Parallel Debt represents Collateral Agent’s own claim to receive payment of such Parallel Debt from the relevant Credit Party and that the amount which may become due and payable by a Credit Party under its Parallel Debt pursuant to this Section 11.12 shall never exceed the total amount which becomes due and payable by such Credit Party to the Secured Parties under its Principal Obligations.

(d) Reductions to Parallel Debt Obligations. Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 11.12:

153

(i) any amount due and payable by a Credit Party under its Parallel Debt shall, to the extent such Credit Party shall have paid any amounts to any Secured Party under its Principal Obligations or any Secured Party otherwise receives any amount in payment of such Principal Obligations (other than by virtue of Section 11.12(f)), be decreased by equivalent amounts as if such amounts were received directly in payment of such Parallel Debt on the date of receipt by the relevant Secured Party of such amount in payment of such Principal Obligations; and

(ii) to the extent that any Credit Party shall have paid any amounts to the Collateral Agent under its Parallel Debt or the Collateral Agent shall have otherwise received monies in payment of such Parallel Debt, the Principal Obligations of such Credit Party to the relevant Secured Party shall be decreased by equivalent amounts as if such amounts were received directly in payment of such Principal Obligations on the date of receipt by the Collateral Agent of such amount in payment of such Parallel Debt.

(e) Role of Collateral Agent. For the purpose of this Section 11.12 the Collateral Agent acts in its own name and on behalf of itself but for the benefit of the Secured Parties and any security right granted to the Collateral Agent to secure any of the Parallel Debts is granted to the Collateral Agent in its capacity of sole creditor of such Parallel Debts.

(f) Payments Received. All payments received by the Collateral Agent shall be applied towards payment of the relevant Parallel Debt, whereupon the Collateral Agent shall distribute such amounts to the Secured Parties who are creditors in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(g) Currency of the Parallel Debt Obligation. Notwithstanding that the Principal Obligations of the Credit Party may be expressed in different currencies, the Parallel Debt of each Credit Party to the Collateral Agent under this Section 11.12 shall be expressed in Dollars. For the purposes of establishing the amount of the Parallel Debt from time to time, the Principal Obligation expressed in other currencies shall be notionally converted to Dollars at the Collateral Agent’s Spot Rate.

11.13 Fondé de Pouvoir.

(a) To the extent necessary, each Lender (collectively, the “Quebec Secured Parties”) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent (and any successor acting as Collateral Agent) to act as the person holding the power of attorney (in such capacity, the “Fondé de pouvoir”) of the holders of any Bond (as hereinafter defined), as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec, and to enter into, take and hold on their behalf, and for their benefit, and on behalf and for the benefit of the other Secured Creditors, the hypothecs granted by any Credit Party in favour of the Fondé de pouvoir under the Civil Code of Québec pursuant to any deed of hypothec (collectively, the “Deeds of Hypothec”), and to exercise such powers and duties which are conferred upon the Fondé de pouvoir under the Deeds of Hypothec. Moreover, without prejudice to such appointment and authorization to act as the person holding the power of attorney as aforesaid, each of the Quebec Secured Parties hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent (and any successor acting as Collateral Agent) to act as agent or mandatary and custodian for and on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors

154

(in such capacity, the “Custodian”) to hold and to be the sole registered holder of any bond (each, a “Bond”) which may be issued under the Deeds of Hypothec and pledged in favour of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties pursuant to any bond pledge agreement (collectively, the “Quebec Bond Pledges”), the whole notwithstanding Section 32 of An Act Respecting the Special Powers of Legal Persons (Québec) or any other applicable law. In this respect, (i) records shall be kept by the Custodian indicating the names and addresses of, and the pro rata portion of the obligations and indebtedness secured by any Quebec Bond Pledge granted in respect of any such bond and owing to the Collateral Agent and the Quebec Secured Parties, and (ii) the Collateral Agent and the Quebec Secured Parties will be entitled to the benefits of any property hypothecated under any Deeds of Hypothec and will participate in the proceeds of realization of any such hypothecated property, the whole in accordance with the terms hereof.

(b) Each of the Fondé de pouvoir and the Custodian shall (a) exercise, in accordance with the terms of the Deeds of Hypothec and the Quebec Bond Pledges and applicable laws, all rights and remedies given to the Fondé de pouvoir and the Custodian, as applicable, with respect to the property hypothecated under any Deed of Hypothec, any Bond and any Quebec Bond Pledge, (b) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to the Collateral Agent, mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Quebec Secured Parties, and (c) be entitled to delegate from time to time any of its powers or duties under any Deed of Hypothec, any Bond and any Quebec Bond Pledge, and on such terms and conditions as it may determine from time to time. Any Person who becomes a Lender shall be deemed to have consented to and confirmed: (i) the Fondé de pouvoir as the person holding the power of attorney as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Lender, all actions taken by the Fondé de pouvoir as the person holding the power of attorney as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Lender, all actions taken by the Fondé de pouvoir in such capacity; and (ii) the Custodian as the agent or mandatary and custodian as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Quebec Secured Party, all actions taken by the Custodian in such capacity.

11.14 Special Provisions for BPEH Parallel Debt.

(a) Each party hereto, acknowledges, agrees and accepts the provisions set forth in Clause 3 (Parallel Debt Provisions) of the BPEH Share Pledge Agreement.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, each Credit Party and each of the Creditors confirm that in accordance with Clause 3 (Parallel Debt Provisions) of the BPEH Share Pledge Agreement, the claim of Collateral Agent against BPEH in respect of the BPEH Parallel Debt and the claims of any one or more of the Creditors against BPEH under the Subsidiary Guaranty do not constitute common property (gemeenschap) within the meaning of article 3:166 of the Dutch Civil Code and that the provisions relating to common property shall not apply. If, however, it shall be held that the claim of the Collateral Agent against BPEH in respect of the BPEH Parallel Debt and the claims of any one or more of the Creditors against BPEH under the Subsidiary Guaranty do constitute common property and the provisions relating to common property do apply, each party hereto agrees that the BPEH Share Pledge Agreement and this Agreement shall constitute the administration agreement (beheersregeling) within the meaning of article 3:168 of the Dutch Civil Code, pursuant to which Collateral Agent shall be solely authorized to exercise

155

any and all rights in relation to the BPEH Parallel Debt and any related security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to BPEH Share Pledge Agreement.

Each Borrower agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such additional agreements, powers and instruments, as Administrative Agent may reasonably require or reasonably deem advisable to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or to better assure and confirm unto Administrative Agent its rights, powers and remedies hereunder.

12.3 Notices, Delivery Etc. (a) Except where telephonic instructions or notices are authorized herein to be given, all notices, demands, instructions and other communications required or permitted to be given to or made upon any party hereto or any other Person shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by a reputable overnight or courier delivery service, or by prepaid telex or telecopier, and shall be deemed to be given for purposes of this Agreement on the third day after deposit in registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, and otherwise on the date that such writing is delivered or sent to the intended recipient thereof, or in the case of notice delivered by telecopy, upon completion of transmission with a copy of such notice also being delivered under any of the methods provided above, all in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.3.

12.4 Costs, Expenses and Taxes; Indemnification.

(a) Generally. Company and European Holdco, agree jointly and severally to pay promptly upon request by Administrative Agent (and any Lender, in connection with any enforcement as provided below) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery and syndication of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein (provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company and European Holdco shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of only one counsel to Administrative Agent and additional local counsel in connection with the preparation and negotiation of the initial Loan Documents executed on the Effective Date) and any amendment, waiver, consent relating hereto or thereto or other modifications of (or supplements to) any of the foregoing, including without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of Winston & Xxxxxx LLP, local and foreign counsel to Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent relative thereto, and independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and all reasonable search fees, appraisal fees and expenses, filing and recording fees and all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, Attorney Costs), if any, in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement furnished pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith.

(b) In addition, Company and European Holdco agree jointly and severally to pay any and all present and future stamp, transfer, excise, registration and other similar taxes payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution, delivery and enforcement of this Agreement, any Loan Document, or the making of any Loan, and each agrees to save and hold Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay by any Borrower in paying, or omission by any Borrower to pay, such taxes, excluding, in each case, such amounts that result from a transfer, assignment or grant of a participation by a Lender or Agent. Any portion of the foregoing fees, costs and expenses which remains unpaid more than thirty (30) days following Administrative Agent’s, Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s statement and the due date thereof shall bear interest from the date of such due date at the Default Rate.

(c) Indemnification. Company and European Holdco agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold harmless DBSI, Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners, Co-Syndication Agent, Co-Documentation Agents, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender and each partner, director, officer, employee, agent, attorney and Affiliate of DBSI, Co-Syndication Agents, Co-Documentation Agents, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender (each such Person an “Indemnified Person” and collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against all losses, claims, damages, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), reasonable expenses or liabilities (not including taxes that are the subject matter of Section 4.7 hereof) (including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of any counsel for any Indemnified Person) to which such Indemnified Person may become subject, insofar as such

160

losses, claims, damages, penalties, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), reasonable expenses or liabilities (or actions, suits or proceedings including any investigation or claims in respect thereof (whether or not Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party thereto)) arise out of, in any way relate to, or result from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; provided, however,

(i) that no Indemnified Person shall have the right to be so indemnified hereunder for any loss, claim, damage, penalties, obligations, expense or liability to the extent it arises or results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or from such Indemnified Person’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction and

(ii) that nothing contained herein shall affect the express contractual obligations of the Lenders to Borrowers contained herein.

If any action, suit or proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is brought against Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any Lender or any other Person indemnified or intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 12.4, Company and European Holdco will, if requested by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any Lender or any such Indemnified Person, resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding or cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Person or Persons indemnified or intended to be indemnified. The Indemnified Persons shall, unless Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, a Lender or other Indemnified Person has made the request described in the preceding sentence and such request has been complied with, have the right to employ their own counsel (or (but not as well as) staff counsel) to investigate and control the defense of any matter covered by such indemnity and the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided, however, that in any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, Company and European Holdco shall not be liable for reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel), which counsel shall be designated by Administrative Agent provided, further, however, each Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such inquiry, action, claim or proceeding and to control the defense thereof, and the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of Company and European Holdco if (i) Company and European Holdco shall have agreed in writing to pay such reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses or (ii) such Indemnified Person shall have notified Company and European Holdco that it has been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the other Indemnified Persons and that such common representation would adversely impact the adequacy of the proposed representation. Excluding any losses, costs, liabilities or damages arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Person as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment, Company and European Holdco further agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold each Indemnified Person harmless from all loss, reasonable out-of-pocket cost (including Attorney Costs), liability and damage whatsoever incurred by any Indemnified Person by reason of any violation of any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits or for the Release or Threatened Release of any Contaminants into the environment for which Company or any of its Subsidiaries has any liability or which is

161

related to any property currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by or on behalf of Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or by reason of the imposition of any Environmental Lien or which occurs by a breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants relating to environmental matters contained herein, provided that, with respect to any liabilities arising from acts or failure to act for which Company or any of its Subsidiaries is strictly liable under any Environmental Law or Environmental Permit, Company’s and European Holdco’s obligation to each Indemnified Person under this indemnity shall likewise be without regard to fault on the part of Company or any such Subsidiary. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any Lender or other Indemnified Person as set forth in this Section 12.4 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. The obligations of Company and European Holdco under this Section 12.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of Company’s and European Holdco’s other Obligations hereunder.

(d) Foreign Exchange Indemnity. If any sum due from any Borrower under this Agreement or any order or judgment given or made in relation hereto has to be converted from the currency (the “first currency”) in which the same is payable hereunder or under such order or judgment into another currency (the “second currency”) for the purpose of (i) making or filing a claim or proof against any Borrower with any Governmental Authority or in any court or tribunal, or (ii) enforcing any order or judgment given or made in relation hereto, Company and European Holdco shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Persons to whom such sum is due from and against any loss actually suffered as a result of any discrepancy between (a) the rate of exchange used to convert the amount in question from the first currency into the second currency, and (b) the rate or rates of exchange at which such Person, acting in good faith in a commercially reasonable manner, purchased the first currency with the second currency after receipt of a sum paid to it in the second currency in satisfaction, in whole or in part, of any such order, judgment, claim or proof. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate obligation of Company and European Holdco distinct from its other obligations hereunder and shall survive the giving or making of any judgment or order in relation to all or any of such other obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments of principal and interest on Loans denominated in Dollars, Euros, Sterling or Agreed Alternative Currency, as the case may be, shall be made in Dollars, Euros, Sterling or Agreed Alternative Currency as the case may be.

12.5 Confirmations. Each Borrower and each holder of any portion of the Obligations agrees from time to time, upon written request received by it from the other, to confirm to the other in writing (with a copy of each such confirmation to Administrative Agent) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loan or Loans and other Obligations then outstanding.

12.6 Adjustment; Setoff.

(a) If any lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 10.1(e) or Section 10.1(f) hereof, or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such

162

payment to and collateral received by any other Lender in respect of such other Lender’s Loans or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders such portion of each such other Lender’s Loans, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each Lender; provided, however, that (i) if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest and (ii) any such collateral owned by a Foreign Subsidiary or the proceeds thereof shall not be paid in respect of Loans or other Obligations of any Domestic Subsidiary. Each Borrower agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Loans may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of setoff) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Borrowers, any such notice being expressly waived by Borrowers, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to setoff and apply against any Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, of any Borrower or any Credit Party to such Lender, any amount owing from such Lender to such Borrower or Credit Party, at or at any time after, the happening of any of the above-mentioned events, and the aforesaid right of setoff may be exercised by such Lender against any Borrower or Credit Party or against any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receivers, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of such Borrower or Credit Party, or against anyone else claiming through or against, such Borrower or Credit Party or such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receivers, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the fact that such right of setoff shall not have been exercised by such Lender prior to the making, filing or issuance, or service upon such Lender of, or of notice of, any such petition, assignment for the benefit of creditors, appointment or application for the appointment of a receiver, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or issuance of execution, subpoena, order or warrant. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Company and Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application and provided further that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1(b) and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

(c) Each Borrower expressly agrees that to the extent such Borrower makes a payment or payments and such payment or payments, or any part thereof, are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or are required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar

163

official, or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law, rule, regulation or equitable cause in any jurisdiction, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Indebtedness to the Lenders or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment or payments had not been made.

12.7 Execution in Counterparts; Electronic Execution of Assignments. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

12.8 Binding Effect; Assignment; Addition and Substitution of Lenders.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Borrowers, Administrative Agent, the Lenders, all future holders of the Notes and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that (i) other than as expressly permitted pursuant to Section 8.3(v) herein, no Borrower may assign its rights or obligations hereunder or in connection herewith or any interest herein (voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Lenders and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 12.8.

(b) Each Lender may at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in all or any portion of its Commitment and Loans or participation in Letters of Credit or any other interest of such Lender hereunder (in respect of any Lender, its “Credit Exposure”). In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, and Borrowers and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. At the time of the sale of a participating interest, the Lender transferring the interest (i) shall cause the Participant to provide the forms required under Section 4.7(d), if applicable, as if such Participant became a Lender on the date of the sale and (ii) shall, if required under applicable law, deliver revised forms in accordance Section 4.7(d) reflecting the portion of the interest sold and the portion of the interest retained. Further, the Participant shall be subject to the obligations of Section 3.6 and Section 4.7 as if such Participant was a Lender. Each Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to

164

it as a Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, however, that such right of setoff shall be subject to the obligation of such Participant to share with the Lenders, and the Lenders agree to share with such Participant, as provided in Section 12.6. Each Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.6 and Section 4.7 with respect to its participation in the Loans outstanding from time to time, as if such Participant becomes a Lender on the date it acquired an interest pursuant to this Section 12.8(b); provided that, no participation shall be made to any Person under this section if, at the time of such participation, the Participant’s benefits under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 would be greater than the benefits that the participating Lender was entitled to under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 (and if any participation is made in violation of the foregoing, the Participant will not be entitled to the incremental amounts). Each Lender agrees that any agreement between such Lender and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not, except with the consent of Administrative Agent and Company, restrict such Lender’s right to approve or agree to any amendment, restatement, supplement or other modification to, waiver of, or consent under, this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents except to the extent that any of the forgoing would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such Participant is participating (it being understood that amending the definition of any Scheduled Term Repayment (other than any Term Maturity Date), shall not constitute an extension of the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note) or extend the stated maturity of any Letter of Credit in which such Participant is participating beyond the Revolver Termination Date, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees on any such Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the Participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, representations, warranties, Events of Default or Unmatured Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in Commitments shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any Participant if the Participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents) supporting the Loans and/or Letters of Credit hereunder in which such Participant is participating. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, any bank or other lending institution that is a member of the Farm Credit System that (A) has purchased a participation or sub-participation in the minimum amount of $10,000,000 on or after the Effective Date, (B) is, by written notice to Company and Administrative Agent (“Voting Participant Notification”), designated by the selling Lender as being entitled to be accorded the rights of a Voting Participant hereunder (any bank or other lending institution that is a member of the Farm Credit System so designated being called a “Voting Participant”) and (C) receives the prior written consent of Company and the Administrative Agent to become a Voting Participant, shall be entitled to vote (and the voting rights of the selling Lender shall be correspondingly reduced), on a dollar for dollar basis, as if such participant or sub-participant were a Lender, on any matter requiring or allowing a Lender to provide or withhold its consent, or to otherwise vote on any proposed action. To be effective, each Voting Participant Notification shall, with respect to any Voting Participant, (1) state the full name, as well as all contact information required of an Assignee in any Administrative Questionnaire and (2) state the dollar amount of the participation or sub-participation purchased.

165

Company and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on information contained in notices delivered pursuant to this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each bank or other lending institution that is a member of the Farm Credit System designated as a Voting Participant in Schedule 12.8(b) hereto shall be a Voting Participant without delivery of a Voting Participant Notification and without the prior written consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

(c) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees, including an Affiliate of such Lender (which Affiliate, in the case of Credit Exposure under the Multicurrency Revolving Loans or Multicurrency Revolving Commitments or French Revolving Loans or French Revolving Commitments, otherwise meets the definition of “Eligible Assignee”) (each an “Assignee”), all or any part of its Credit Exposure pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided that no assignment shall be made to any Person under this Section 12.8(c) if, at the time of such assignment, the Assignee’s benefits under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 would be greater than the benefits that the assigning Lender was entitled to under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 (and if any assignment is made in violation of the foregoing, the Assignee will not be entitled to the incremental amounts) and provided, further, that, any assignment of all or any portion of any Lender’s Credit Exposure to an Assignee other than an Affiliate of such Lender or another Lender, or in the case of a Lender that is a Fund, any Related Fund of any Lender (i) shall be an assignment of its Credit Exposure in an amount not less than the Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 for the Multicurrency Revolving Facility and French Revolving Facility and $1,000,000 for the Term Facilities (treating any Fund and its Related Funds as a single Eligible Assignee) (or if less the entire amount of Lender’s Credit Exposure with respect to such Facility, provided, that, if such Lender and its Affiliates (or in the case of a Fund and its Related Funds) collectively hold Credit Exposure at least equal to such minimum amounts, such Affiliates and/or Related Funds must simultaneously assign Credit Exposure such that the aggregate Credit Exposure assigned satisfies such minimum amount) and (ii) shall require the prior written consent of Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and, provided no Event of Default then exists and is continuing, Company (the consent of Company not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, any Lender may at any time assign all or any part of its Credit Exposure to any Affiliate of such Lender or to any other Lender (or in the case of a Lender which is a Fund, to any Related Fund of such Lender) so long as such Affiliate, other Lender or Related Fund is an Eligible Assignee. Upon execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement and the payment of a nonrefundable assignment fee of $3,500 (provided that no such fee shall be payable upon assignments by any Lender which is a Fund to one or more Related Funds and provided, further that no Borrower shall in any event be required to pay any portion of such fee unless a Borrower requests that a Lender be replaced pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.7) in immediately available funds to Administrative Agent at its Payment Office in connection with each such assignment, written notice thereof by such transferor Lender to Administrative Agent and the recording by Administrative Agent of such assignment and the resulting effect upon the Loans, French Revolving Commitment and Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of the assigning Lender and the Assignee, the Assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would have if it were a Lender hereunder and the holder of the Obligations (provided that Borrowers and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with the assignor Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to the Assignee until written notice of such assignment, together with payment

166

instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to Borrowers and Administrative Agent by the assignor Lender and the Assignee) and, if the Assignee has expressly assumed, for the benefit of Borrowers, some or all of the transferor Lender’s obligations hereunder, such transferor Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment and assumption, and except as described above, no further consent or action by Company, the Lenders or Administrative Agent shall be required. At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 12.8(c) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective Assignee shall provide to Borrowers and Administrative Agent the appropriate forms and certificates as provided in Section 4.7(d), if applicable. Each Assignee shall take such Credit Exposure subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to any request made, waiver or consent given or other action taken hereunder, prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent and Company of written notice of such transfer, by each previous holder of such Credit Exposure. Such Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement and Schedule 1.1(a) hereto, to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Assignee as a Lender and the resulting adjustment of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement, the Maximum Commitment, the determination of its Term Pro Rata Share, French Pro Rata Share or Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be (in each case, rounded to twelve decimal places), the Loans, any outstanding Letters of Credit and any new Notes, if requested, to be issued, at Borrowers’ expense, to such Assignee, and no further consent or action by Company or the Lenders shall be required to effect such amendments.

(d) [Reserved].

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Notes held by it) to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board without notice to, or the consent of, any Borrower, provided that, no such pledge or assignment of a security interest under this Section 12.8(e) shall release a Lender from any obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Notes or Loans to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee. No such pledge or assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.8, no Lender may assign or sell participations, or otherwise syndicate all or any portion of such lender’s interests under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Person who is (i) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List maintained by OFAC and/or on any other similar list maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, Executive Order or regulation or (ii) either (x) included within the term “designated national” as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515, or (y) designated under Sections 1(a), 1(b), 1(c) or 1(d) of Executive Order No. 13224, 66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (published September 25, 2001) or similarly designated under any related enabling legislation or any other similar Executive Orders.

12.10 Release of Collateral. The Collateral and any other collateral security for the Obligation shall be released from any security interest or Lien created by the Loan Documents (i) in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.19(b) and (ii) at such time as no Commitment by any Lender remains outstanding to any Borrower hereunder and after no Borrower shall have any Loans or other Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations with respect to which no claim has been made) then outstanding to Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; and Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall then deliver to Borrowers all Collateral and any other collateral held under the Loan Documents and related documents in the custody or possession of Administrative Agent and, if requested by any Borrower, shall execute and deliver to such Borrower for filing in each office in which any financing statement relative to such collateral, or any part thereof, shall have been filed, a termination statement under the Uniform Commercial Code or like statute in any other jurisdiction releasing Administrative Agent’s interest therein, and such other documents and instruments as such Borrower may reasonably request, all without recourse upon, or warranty whatsoever by, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent at the cost and expense of the applicable Borrower.

12.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO CHOICE OF LAW RULES, OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

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

12.13 Transfers of Notes. In the event that the holder of any Note (including any Lender) shall transfer such Note, it shall immediately advise Administrative Agent and Company of such transfer, and Administrative Agent and Company shall be entitled conclusively to assume that no transfer of any Note has been made by any holder (including any Lender) unless and until Administrative Agent and Company shall have received written notice to the contrary. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as otherwise expressly agreed in writing by all of the other parties hereto, no Lender shall, by reason of the transfer of a Note or otherwise, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder and any such transfer shall be in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents. Each transferee of any Note shall take such Note subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to any request made, waiver or consent given or other action taken hereunder, prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent and Company of written notice of such transfer, by each previous holder of such Note, and, except as expressly otherwise provided in such transfer, Administrative Agent and Company shall be entitled

169

conclusively to assume that the transferee named in such notice shall hereafter be vested with all rights and powers under this Agreement with respect to the Pro Rata Share of the Loans of the Lender named as the payee of the Note which is the subject of such transfer.

12.14 Registry. Each Borrower hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as Borrowers’ agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.14 to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitment from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect Borrowers’ obligations in respect of such Loans. The Borrowers, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each registered holder as absolute owner. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitment shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitment and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitment and Loans shall be recorded by Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 12.8. Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note evidencing such Loan, and thereupon, if requested by the assigning or transferor Lender or new Lender, one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount then owing to such assignor or transferor Lender shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender.

12.15 Euro Currency.

(a) The following provisions of this Section 12.15 shall come into effect on and from the date on which the United Kingdom becomes a Participating Member State. Each obligation under this Agreement which has been denominated in Sterling shall be redenominated into Euros in accordance with the relevant EMU Legislation. However if and to the extent that the relevant EMU Legislation provides that an amount which is denominated in Sterling can be paid by the debtor either in Euros or in that national currency unit, each party to this Agreement shall be entitled to pay or repay any amount denominated or owing in Sterling hereunder either in Euros or in Sterling. Without prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or rounding prescribed by any relevant EMU Legislation, (i) each reference in this Agreement to a minimum amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in Sterling shall be replaced by a reference to such reasonably comparable and convenient amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in Euros as Administrative Agent may from time to time specify and (ii) except as expressly provided in this Section 12.15, this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be necessary or appropriate to reflect the introduction of or changeover to Euros in the United Kingdom.

(b) Company, European Holdco and Other Subsidiary Borrowers agree, at the request of any Lender or any Facing Agent, to compensate such Lender or the respective Facing

170

Agent for any loss, cost, expense or reduction in return that such Lender or such Facing Agent shall reasonably determine shall be incurred or sustained by such Lender or such Facing Agent as a result of the implementation of Section 12.15(a) that would not have been incurred or sustained by such Lender or such Facing Agent but for the transactions provided for herein. A certificate of any such Lender or the respective Facing Agent setting forth such Lender’s or such Facing Agent’s determination of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Facing Agent shall be delivered to Administrative Agent for delivery to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error so long as such determination is made by such Lender or such Facing Agent on a reasonable basis. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

12.16 Headings. The Table of Contents and Article and Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

12.17 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in effect from the Effective Date through and including the date upon which all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due) arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall have been indefeasibly and irrevocably paid and satisfied in full, all Letters of Credit have been terminated or expired (or been Cash Collateralized) and the Commitment of each Lender has been terminated. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the rights and obligations of the parties hereto arising prior to such termination or in respect of any provision of this Agreement which expressly survives such termination

12.18 Confidentiality. Each of the Lenders severally agrees to keep confidential all non-public information pertaining to Company and its Subsidiaries which is provided to it by any such parties in accordance with such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in a prudent fashion, and shall not disclose such information to any Person except:

(a) to the extent such information is public when received by such Lender or becomes public thereafter due to the act or omission of any party other than a Lender,

(b) to an Affiliate of such Lender, counsel or auditors of such Lender, accountants and other consultants, in connection with the Loan Documents, retained by Administrative Agent or any Lender,

(c) in connection with any litigation or the enforcement of the rights of any Lender or Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document,

(d) to the extent required by any applicable statute, rule or regulation or court order (including, without limitation, by way of subpoena) or pursuant to the request of any Governmental Authority having or asserting jurisdiction over any Lender or Administrative Agent; provided, however, that in such event, if the Lender(s) are able to do so, the Lender shall provide Company with prompt notice of such requested disclosure (other than in connection with routine examinations of such Lender by any such Governmental Authority) so that Borrowers may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, and, in any event, the Lenders will

171

endeavor in good faith to provide only that portion of such information which, in the reasonable judgment of the Lender(s), is relevant and legally required to be provided, or to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with rating issued with respect to such Lender.

(e) to the extent disclosure to other entities is appropriate in connection with any proposed or actual assignment, grant of a participation or swap agreement entered into by any of the Lenders with respect to interests in this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents to such other entities (who will in turn be required to maintain confidentiality as if they were Lenders parties to this Agreement). In no event shall Administrative Agent or any Lender be obligated or required to return any such information or other materials furnished by Borrowers.

12.19 Concerning the Collateral and the Loan Documents.

(a) Authority. Each Lender authorizes and directs DB to act as Collateral Agent under each of the Security Documents and to act as UK Security Trustee under each of the UK Security Documents, and to enter into the Loan Documents relating to the Collateral for the benefit of the Lenders and the other secured parties. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where required by the express terms, hereof, a different proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions hereof or of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by Administrative Agent, Collateral Trustee, UK Security Trustee or the Required Lenders (or, where so required, such different proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee, as the case may be, shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with the Loan Documents relating to the Collateral; (ii) execute and deliver each Loan Document relating to the Collateral and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) act as collateral trustee for the Lenders for purposes stated therein to the extent such action is provided for under the Loan Documents; (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral; (v) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and liens created or purported to be created by the Loan Documents, and (vi) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, exercise all remedies given to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, UK Security Trustee or the Lenders with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise.

(b) Release of Collateral.

(i) Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, UK Security Trustee and the Lenders hereby direct Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee to release, in accordance with the terms hereof, any Lien held by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee under the Security Documents (and in the case of a sale of all of the Capital Stock of a Domestic Subsidiary under clause (B) below, to release the affected Subsidiary from its Subsidiary Guaranty):

172

(A) against all of the Collateral, upon payment in full of the Loans and other outstanding Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations with respect to which no claim has been made);

(B) against any part of the Collateral sold or disposed of by Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such sale or disposition is permitted hereby (or permitted pursuant to a waiver or consent of a transaction otherwise prohibited hereby);

(C) so long as no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the sole discretion of Administrative Agent upon the request of any Borrower, against any part of the Collateral with a fair market value of less than $10,000,000 in the aggregate during the term of this Agreement as such fair market value may be certified to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee by such Borrower in an officer’s certificate reasonably acceptable in form and substance to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee;

(D) against any part of the Collateral to the extent necessary to effect a transaction permitted under Section 8.3(v);

(E) subject to Section 7.12, against a part of the Collateral in connection with a removal of an Other Subsidiary Borrower permitted under Section 12.1(b)(ii);

(F) against a part of the Collateral which release does not require the consent of all of the Lenders as set forth in Section 12.1(a)(ii), if such release is consented to by the Required Lenders;

provided, however, that (y) Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in its opinion, would expose it to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (z) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of Company or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of) all interests retained by Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries, including (without limitation) the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(ii) Each of the Lenders hereby directs Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee to execute and deliver or file such termination and partial release statements and comparable release documents under foreign law and such other things as are necessary to release Liens to be released pursuant to this Section 12.19 promptly upon the effectiveness of any such release or enter into intercreditor agreements contemplated or permitted herein.

(d) No Obligation. None of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee shall have any obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Company or any of its Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to Administrative Agent,

173

Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee herein or pursuant to the Loan Documents have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given its own interests in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that none of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee shall have any duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or UK Security Trustee shall be responsible for its grossly negligent actions or actions constituting intentional misconduct.

12.20 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on the date (the “Effective Date”) on which Borrowers and each of the Lenders shall have signed a counterpart of this Agreement (whether the same or different counterparts) and shall have delivered the same to Administrative Agent at the Notice Address (or to Administrative Agent’s counsel as directed by such counsel) or, in the case of the Lenders, shall have given to Administrative Agent or telephonic (confirmed in writing), written, telex or facsimile notice (actually received) at such office or the office of Administrative Agent’s counsel that the same has been signed and mailed to it. Administrative Agent will give Borrowers and each Lender prompt written notice of the occurrence of the Effective Date.

12.21 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each such Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

12.22 Restrictions on Guarantees and Pledges. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any Loan Document (except for Section 7.14 of this Agreement), (a) neither Company nor any Domestic Subsidiary of Company (individually or in combination) shall pledge more than 65% of the stock of any Foreign Subsidiary (or more than 65% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such Foreign Subsidiary entitled to vote); (b) no Foreign Subsidiary of Company shall pledge the stock of any Subsidiary to secure any obligations of any Borrower that is a United States person within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(30); and (c) no Foreign Subsidiary shall provide any guarantees, in each case, to secure any obligations of any Borrower that is a United States person within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(30). For purposes of this Section 12.22, Subsidiary shall include any Unrestricted Entity.

12.23 Redesignation of Unrestricted Entities as Subsidiaries. Any Unrestricted Entity that would be a Subsidiary but for the last sentence of the definition of Subsidiary may be redesignated by Company as a Subsidiary (with such redesignation being deemed to be an Acquisition by Company of such Subsidiary which shall be deemed to constitute a Permitted Acquisition for purposes of Section 8.7) provided that (i) Company shall have delivered to

174

Administrative Agent (not less than 30 days prior to the date Company desires such redesignation to be effective) a notice signed by a Responsible Officer identifying such Unrestricted Entity to be redesignated and providing such other information as Administrative Agent may reasonably request, (ii) immediately before and immediately after the effectiveness of such redesignation, no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default exists or will exist (including, without limitation, the permissibility of any Investment, Indebtedness, Liens or other obligations existing at such Subsidiaries), (iii) Company has complied, to the extent applicable, with the provisions of Sections 7.12 and 7.14 and the applicable Subsidiaries, on the effective date of such redesignation or such later date as agreed to by Administrative Agent but in no event later than one hundred twenty days after such date, are in compliance with the terms and conditions of all applicable Security Documents, (iv) Administrative Agent has received such other documents, instruments and opinions as it may reasonably request in connection with such redesignation, and all such instruments, documents and opinions shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent and (v) on the desired effective date of such redesignation, Company shall deliver a certificate from a Responsible Officer confirming clauses (ii) through (iv) above and that the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on the date of, and after giving effect to, such redesignation as though made on such date (except to the extent such representations and warranties are expressly made of a specified date in which event they shall be true as of such date).

(a) (i) On the CAM Exchange Date, to the extent not otherwise prohibited by a Requirement of Law or otherwise, each Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall immediately be deemed to have acquired (and shall promptly make payment therefor to Swing Line Lender in accordance with Section 2.1(c)(iii)) participations in the Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to such Multicurrency Revolving Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of each Swing Line Loan outstanding on such date, (ii) on the CAM Exchange Date, all Loans outstanding in any currency other than Dollars (“Loans to be Converted”) shall be converted into Dollars (calculated on the basis of the relevant Exchange Rates as of the Business Day immediately preceding the CAM Exchange Date) (“Converted Loans”), and (iii) on the CAM Exchange Date, each Lender severally, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that it shall purchase or sell in U.S. Dollars a participating interest in the Loans in an amount equal to its CAM Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans, such that in lieu of the interest of each Lender in each Facility in which it shall participate prior to the CAM Exchange Date, such Lender shall hold an interest in every one of the Facilities whether or not such Lender shall have previously participated therein, equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage thereof on the CAM Exchange Date. All Converted Loans shall bear interest at the rate which would otherwise be applicable to Base Rate Loans. Each Lender and each Borrower hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees that the CAM Exchange shall be binding upon its successors and assigns and any person that acquires a participation in its interests in any Facility. Each Borrower agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent all instruments

175

and documents as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange.

(b) If, for any reason, the Loans to be Converted may not be converted into Dollars in the manner contemplated by paragraph (a) of this Section 13.1, Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the Loans to be Converted or Acceptances to be Converted, as the case may be (calculated on the basis of the Exchange Rate as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such conversion would otherwise occur pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 13.1). Such determination shall be utilized to determine the CAM Percentage of each Lender and the participations to be exchanged.

(c) As a result of the CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Designated Obligations, and each distribution made by Collateral Agent pursuant to any Security Document in respect of the Designated Obligations, shall be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages. Any direct payment received by a Lender upon or after the CAM Exchange Date, including by way of setoff, in respect of a Designated Obligation shall be paid over to Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders in accordance herewith.

13.2 Letters of Credit.

(a) In the event that on the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and undrawn in whole or in part, or any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit shall not have been reimbursed either by Borrowers or with the proceeds of a Multicurrency Revolving Loan, each Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall promptly pay over to Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds in the same currency as such Letter of Credit, in the case of any undrawn amount, and in Dollars, in the case of any unreimbursed amount, an amount equal to such Multicurrency Revolving Lender’s Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of such undrawn face amount or (to the extent it has not already done so) such unreimbursed drawing, as the case may be, together with interest thereon from the CAM Exchange Date to the date on which such amount shall be paid to Administrative Agent at the rate that would be applicable at the time to a Base Rate Multicurrency Revolving Loan, in a principal amount equal to such amount. Administrative Agent shall establish a separate interest bearing account or accounts for each Lender (each, an “LC Reserve Account”) for the amounts received with respect to each such Letter of Credit pursuant to the preceding sentence. Administrative Agent shall deposit in each Lender’s LC Reserve Account such Lender’s CAM Percentage of the amounts received from the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders as provided above. Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control over each LC Reserve Account, and the amounts deposited in each LC Reserve Account shall be held in such LC Reserve Account until withdrawn as provided in paragraph (b), (c), (d) or (e) below. Administrative Agent shall maintain records enabling it to determine the amounts paid over to it and deposited in the LC Reserve Accounts in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amounts on deposit in respect of each Letter of Credit attributable to each Lender’s CAM Percentage. The amounts held in each Lender’s LC Reserve Account shall be held as a reserve against the outstanding LC Obligations, shall be the property of such Lender, shall not constitute Loans to or give rise to any claim of or against any Credit Party and shall not give rise to any obligation on the part of any Borrower to pay interest to such Lender, it being

176

agreed that the reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall arise only at such times as drawings are made thereunder, as provided in Section 2.10.

(b) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any drawing shall be made in respect of a Letter of Credit, Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the respective Facing Agent, withdraw from the LC Reserve Account of each Lender any amounts, up to the amount of such Lender’s CAM Percentage of such drawing, deposited in respect of such Letter of Credit and remaining on deposit and deliver such amounts to such Facing Agent in satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders under subsection (f) of Section 2.10. In the event any Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall default on its obligation to pay over any amount to Administrative Agent in respect of any Letter of Credit as provided in this Section 13.2, the respective Facing Agent shall, in the event of a drawing thereunder, have a claim against such Multicurrency Revolving Lender to the same extent as if such Lender had defaulted on its obligations under subsection (f) of Section 2.10, but shall have no claim against any other Lender in respect of such defaulted amount, notwithstanding the exchange of interests in Borrowers’ reimbursement obligations pursuant Section 13.1. Each other Lender shall have a claim against such defaulting Multicurrency Revolving Lender for any damages sustained by it as a result of such default, including, in the event such Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, its CAM Percentage of the defaulted amount.

(c) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, Administrative Agent shall withdraw from the LC Reserve Account of each Lender the amount remaining on deposit therein in respect of such Letter of Credit and distribute such amount to such Lender.

(d) With the prior written approval of Administrative Agent and the respective Facing Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld), any Lender may withdraw the amount held in its LC Reserve Account in respect of the undrawn amount of any Letter of Credit. Any Lender making such a withdrawal shall be unconditionally obligated, in the event there shall subsequently be a drawing under such Letter of Credit, to pay over to Administrative Agent, for the account of such Facing Agent, on demand, its CAM Percentage of such drawing.

(e) Pending the withdrawal by any Lender of any amounts from its LC Reserve Account as contemplated by the above paragraphs, Administrative Agent will, at the direction of such Lender and subject to such rules as Administrative Agent may prescribe for the avoidance of inconvenience, invest such amounts in Cash and Cash Equivalents. Each Lender which has not withdrawn its CAM Percentage of amounts in its LC Reserve Account as provided in paragraph (d) above shall have the right, at intervals reasonably specified by Administrative Agent, to withdraw the earnings on investments so made by Administrative Agent with amounts in its LC Reserve Account and to retain such earnings for its own account.

ARTICLE XIV

COMPANY GUARANTY

14.1 Company Guaranty. In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder and in recognition of the direct and indirect benefits to be

177

received by Company from the proceeds of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit, Company hereby agrees with the Lenders as follows: Company hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations of each Borrower (other than Company) to the Guaranteed Creditors. If any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations of any Borrower (other than Company) to the Guaranteed Creditors becomes due and payable hereunder, Company unconditionally promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, together with any and all reasonable expenses which may be incurred by Administrative Agent or the Lenders in collecting any of the Guaranteed Obligations. If claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including any Borrower), then and in such event Company agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon Company, notwithstanding any revocation of this guaranty or other instrument evidencing any liability of any Borrower, and Company shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.

14.2 Insolvency. Additionally, Company unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations of each Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors whether or not due or payable by such Borrower upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Sections 10.1(e) or (f) with respect to such Borrower, and unconditionally promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States or the applicable Alternative Currency, as the case may be.

14.3 Nature of Liability. The liability of Company hereunder is exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations of any Borrower whether executed by Company, any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of Company hereunder is not affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by any Borrower or by any other party; or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Guaranteed Obligations of any Borrower; or (c) any payment on or reduction in any such other guaranty or undertaking; or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by any Borrower; or (e) any payment made to any Guaranteed Creditor on the Guaranteed Obligations which any such Guaranteed Creditor repays to any Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding in any jurisdiction.

14.4 Independent Obligation. The obligations of Company hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor, any other party or any Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Company whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor, any other party or any Borrower and whether or not any other guarantor, any other party or any Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Company waives, to the full extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations

178

affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by any Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to any Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to Company or any guarantor.

14.5 Authorization. Any Guaranteed Creditor may (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) at any time and from time to time in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement without the consent of, or notice to, Company, without incurring responsibility to Company and without impairing or releasing the obligations of Company under this Article XIV, upon or without any terms or conditions and in whole or in part:

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof (other than any agreement between any Guaranteed Creditor and Company specifically modifying or amending the terms of this Article XIV), and the guaranty herein made shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

(b) take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset there against;

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any Borrower or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, any Borrower or other obligors;

(e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of any Borrower to its creditors other than the Guaranteed Creditors;

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of any Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors, regardless of what liability or liabilities of Company or any Borrower remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein; and/or

(h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of Company from its liabilities under this Article XIV.

179

14.6 Reliance. It is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Borrower or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Guaranteed Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

14.7 Subordination. Any of the indebtedness of any Borrower (other than Company) now or hereafter owing to Company is hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations of any such Borrower owing to the Guaranteed Creditors; and if Administrative Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, all such indebtedness relating to the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrowers to Company shall be collected, enforced and received by Company for the benefit of the Guaranteed Creditors and be paid over to Administrative Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrowers to the Guaranteed Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of Company under the other provisions of this Article XIV. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Company hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash and all Commitments terminated.

14.8 Waiver.

(a) Company waives any right (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) to require any Guaranteed Creditor to (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed Creditor’s power whatsoever. Company waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, based on or arising out of the disability of any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, or the validity, legality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have against any Borrower or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of Company hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid. Company waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of Company against Borrower or any other party or any security.

(b) Company waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including without limitation notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations. Company assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other

180

circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which Company assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no duty to advise Company of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

14.9 Nature of Liability. It is the desire and intent of Company and the Lenders that this Article XIV shall be enforced against Company to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If, however, and to the extent that, the obligations of Company under this Article XIV shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations of Company shall be deemed to be reduced and Company shall pay the maximum amount of the Guaranteed Obligations which would be permissible under applicable law.

14.10 Special Provisions in Relation to German Tax Laws. For purposes of enabling the Credit Parties to demonstrate the absence of back-to-back financing within the framework of the German rules on thin capitalization, the Lenders hereby agree that, upon the request of Company, they will negotiate in good faith with Company and its Subsidiaries to effect such confirmations and/or amendments to Loan Documents (other than the Credit Agreement) as shall be reasonably requested by Company and are reasonably satisfactory to the Lenders.

WHEREAS, each Guarantor will obtain benefits from the incurrence of Loans by Borrowers under the Credit Agreement and the entering into of Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements and, accordingly, desires to execute this Guaranty in order to satisfy the conditions described in the preceding paragraph and to induce the Lenders to make Loans to Borrowers and Other Creditors to enter into Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements with Borrowers and/or their Subsidiaries;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other benefits accruing to each Guarantor, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each

CHL:41744.5

Guarantor hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Creditors and hereby covenants and agrees with each Creditor as follows:

1. Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as primary obligor and not as surety: (i) to the Bank Creditors the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of (A) the principal of and interest on the Notes issued by, and the Loans made to, each Borrower under the Credit Agreement and all reimbursement obligations and Unpaid Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit and (B) all other obligations (including, without limitation, all Obligations and all obligations which, but for the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due) and liabilities owing by each Borrower to the Bank Creditors under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, indemnities, fees and interest thereon) and the other Loan Documents to which any Borrower is a party, whether now existing or hereafter incurred under, arising out of or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any such other Loan Document and the due performance and compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents by each Borrower (all such principal, interest, liabilities and obligations under this clause (i), except to the extent consisting of obligations or liabilities with respect to Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements, being herein collectively called the “Loan Document Obligations”); and (ii) to each Other Creditor the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of all obligations (including obligations which, but for the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due) and liabilities owing by each Borrower now existing or hereafter incurred under, arising out of or in connection with any Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreement, whether such Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreement is now in existence or hereafter arising, and the due performance and compliance by each Borrower with all of the terms, conditions and agreements contained therein (all such obligations and liabilities under this clause (ii) being herein collectively called the “Other Obligations”, and together with the Loan Document Obligations are herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”), provided that the maximum amount payable by each Guarantor hereunder shall at no time exceed the Maximum Amount (as hereinafter defined) of such Guarantor. As used herein, “Maximum Amount” of any Guarantor means the lesser of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations and the highest amount of aggregate liability under this Guaranty which is valid and enforceable as determined in any action or proceeding involving any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally. Subject to the proviso in the second preceding sentence, each Guarantor understands, agrees and confirms that the Creditors may enforce this Guaranty up to the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations against each Guarantor without proceeding against any other Guarantor or any Borrower, or against any security or collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, or under any other guaranty covering all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations. All payments by each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be made on the same basis, and subject to the same limitations, as payments by each Borrower are made under the Credit Agreement, including Sections 4.6 and 4.7 thereof.

2. Additionally, each Guarantor, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees the payment of any and all Guaranteed Obligations of each Borrower to the Creditors whether or not due or payable by such Borrower upon the occurrence of any of the

- 2 -

events specified in Sections 10.1(e) or (f) of the Credit Agreement with respect to such Borrower, and unconditionally, jointly and severally, promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations of such Borrower to the Creditors, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States or the applicable Alternative Currency, as the case may be.

3. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder is exclusive and independent of any security or collateral for or other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations of any Borrower whether executed by such Guarantor, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (i) any direction as to application of payment by any Borrower or by any other party, (ii) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Guaranteed Obligations of any Borrower, (iii) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, (iv) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by any Borrower or (v) any payment made to any Creditor on the Guaranteed Obligations which any Creditor repays any Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding in any jurisdiction.

4. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or any Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or any Borrower and whether or not any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of any Borrower or any Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Each Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by any Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to any Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to each Guarantor.

5. Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and notice of any liability to which it may apply, promptness, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest, notice of dishonor or nonpayment of any such liabilities, suit or taking of other action by Administrative Agent or any other Creditor against, and any other notice to, any party liable thereon (including such Guarantor or any other guarantor or any Borrower).

6. Any Creditor may (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) at any time and from time to time in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement without the consent of, or notice to, Guarantor, without incurring responsibility to such Guarantor and without impairing or releasing the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder, upon or without any terms or conditions and in whole or in part:

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon), any security or collateral therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof (other than any agreement between any Creditor and one or more Guarantors specifically modifying or amending the terms of this Guaranty), and the guaranty herein

- 3 -

made shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

(b) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset there against;

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any Borrower or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of any Borrower to its creditors other than the Creditors;

(e) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of any Borrower to the Creditors, regardless of what liability or liabilities of any Borrower remain unpaid;

(f) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, any of the Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements, the Loan Documents or any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement any of the Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements, the Loan Documents (other than this Guaranty) or any of such other instruments or agreements in accordance with their respective terms; and/or

(g) act or fail to act in any manner referred to in this Guaranty which may deprive such Guarantor of its right to subrogation against any Borrower to recover full indemnity for any payments made pursuant to this Guaranty.

7. No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any security therefor shall affect, impair or be a defense to this Guaranty, and this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute and unconditional notwithstanding the occurrence of any event or the existence of any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor except payment in full of the Loan Document Obligations.

8. This Guaranty is a continuing one and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. No failure or delay on the part of any Creditor in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any Creditor would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such

- 4 -

Guarantor to any other further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. It is not necessary for any Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

9. Any indebtedness of any Borrower now or hereafter held by any Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the indebtedness of any Borrower to the Creditors; and such indebtedness of any Borrower to any Guarantor, if Administrative Agent, after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor for the benefit of the Creditors and be paid over to Administrative Agent on behalf of the Creditors on account of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrowers to the Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby agrees with the Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Loan Document Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash and all Commitments have been terminated (other than indemnity and other contingent obligations which expressly survive termination and for which no claim has been asserted).

10. (a) Each Guarantor waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any right to require the Creditors to: (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of any Borrower or any other party; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security or collateral held from any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of any Borrower or any other party; or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Creditors’ power whatsoever. Each Guarantor waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of any Borrower or any other party other than payment in full of the Loan Document Obligations, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the disability of any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of any Borrower or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower other than payment in full of the Loan Document Obligations. The Creditors may, at their election and in accordance with Section 11 hereof, foreclose on any security or collateral held by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the other Creditors by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, (to the extent such sale is in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Creditors may have against any Borrower or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Loan Document Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash and all Commitments have been terminated (other than indemnity and other contingent obligations which expressly survive the termination of the Credit Agreement with respect to which no claim has been asserted). Each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any Borrower

- 5 -

or any other party or any security. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that additional Other Subsidiary Borrowers will likely be added as Borrowers to the Credit Agreement and afforded certain extensions of credit thereunder. Each Guarantor hereby reaffirms its obligations under this Guaranty with respect to each such additional Other Subsidiary Borrower that may be joined as a new Borrower in the future.

(b) Each Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional indebtedness. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that the Creditors shall have no duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

11. The Creditors agree that this Guaranty may be enforced only by the action of Administrative Agent acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders and that no other Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Guaranty or to realize upon the security to be granted by the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by Administrative Agent or the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Other Obligations, as the case may be, for the benefit of the Creditors upon the terms of this Guaranty and the Security Documents. The Creditors further agree that this Guaranty may not be enforced against any director, officer, employee, or stockholder of any Guarantor (except to the extent such stockholder is also a Guarantor hereunder).

12. In order to induce the Lenders to make the Loans and issue (or participate in) Letters of Credit as provided in the Credit Agreement, and in order to induce the Other Creditors to execute, deliver and perform the Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements, each Guarantor represents, warrants and covenants that:

(a) Such Guarantor (i) is a duly organized and validly existing organization in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization (to the extent that such concept exists in such jurisdiction), (ii) has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and (iii) is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing (to the extent such concept exists in the relevant jurisdiction) in (x) its jurisdiction of organization and (y) in each other jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except in the case of clause (y) where such failure to be so qualified, authorized or in good standing which, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Such Guarantor has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Guaranty and to perform its obligations hereunder and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Guaranty. Such

- 6 -

Guarantor has duly executed and delivered this Guaranty and this Guaranty constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

(c) The execution and delivery by such Guarantor of this Guaranty and the performance of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder do not (i) contravene any applicable provision of any Requirement of Law applicable to such Guarantor, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except pursuant to the Security Documents) upon any of the property or assets of such Guarantor pursuant to the terms of any Contractual Obligation to which such Guarantor is a party or by which it or any of its assets or property is bound, except for such contraventions, conflicts, breaches or defaults that would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, (iii) violate any provision of any Organizational Document of such Guarantor, (iv) require any approval of stockholders or (v) any material approval or consent of any Person (other than a Governmental Authority) except filings, consents, or notices which have been made, obtained or given and except as set forth on Schedule 6.3 of the Credit Agreement.

(d) Except as set forth on Schedule 6.4 of the Credit Agreement and except for filings necessary to create or perfect security interests in the Collateral, no material order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with (except as have been obtained or made on or prior to the Initial Borrowing Date), or exemption by, any Governmental Authority is required to authorize, or is required in connection with, (i) the execution and delivery of this Guaranty or the performance of the obligations hereunder or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Guaranty.

(e) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the best knowledge of such Guarantor, threatened (i) against such Guarantor challenging the validity of any material provision of this Guaranty or (ii) that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

13. Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that on and after the date hereof and until the termination of the Total Commitment and when no Loan, Note or Letter of Credit remains outstanding (other than Letters of Credit, together with all fees that have accrued and will accrue thereon through the stated termination date of such Letters of Credit, which have been supported in a manner satisfactory to the issuer of the Letter of Credit in its sole and absolute discretion) and all Loan Document Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash (other than indemnities described in Section 12.4 of the Credit Agreement and analogous provisions in the Security Documents which are not then due and payable and which survive the termination of the Credit Agreement and for which no claim has been made), such Guarantor shall take, or will refrain from taking, as the case may be, all actions that are necessary to be

- 7 -

taken or not taken so that no violation of any provision, covenant or agreement contained in Articles VII or VIII of the Credit Agreement relating to such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries, and so that no Event of Default, is caused by the actions of such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

14. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each Creditor in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty and any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel employed by any of the Creditors).

15. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Bank Creditors and their successors and permitted assigns and the Other Creditors.

16. Neither this Guaranty nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except with the written consent of each Guarantor directly affected thereby and the Required Lenders (or to the extent required by Section 12.1 of the Credit Agreement, with the written consent of each Lender) at all times prior to the time on which all Loan Document Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash; provided, however, that any change, waiver, modification or variance affecting the rights and benefits of a single Class (as defined below) of Creditors (and not all Creditors in a like or similar manner) shall require the written consent of the Requisite Creditors (as defined below) of such Class of Creditors; and provided, further, that (i) any addition of a Guarantor hereunder shall not constitute a change, waiver, discharge, termination, amendment or other modification hereto for the purposes of this Section 16, and the addition of any such Guarantor shall be effective upon the delivery of a Supplement (as defined below) to Administrative Agent by the applicable Guarantor and (ii) any release of a Guarantor hereunder permitted by Section 12.19 of the Credit Agreement shall not constitute a change, waiver, discharge, termination, amendment of other modification hereto for the purposes of this Section 16 and the release of a Guarantor shall be effective upon delivery of such Guarantor of a release executed by Administrative Agent (which release Administrative Agent is authorized to execute and deliver to the extent provided in Section 12.19 of the Credit Agreement). For the purpose of this Guaranty the term “Class” shall mean each class of Creditors, i.e., whether (A) the Bank Creditors as holders of the Loan Document Obligations or (B) the Other Creditors as the holders of the Other Obligations. For the purpose of this Guaranty, the term “Requisite Creditors” of any Class shall mean each of (i) with respect to the Loan Document Obligations, the Required Lenders and (ii) with respect to the Other Obligations, the holders of at least a majority of all obligations outstanding from time to time under the Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements.

17. Each Guarantor acknowledges that an executed (or conformed) copy of each of the Loan Documents and Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements in existence as of the date hereof has been made available to its principal executive officers.

18. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 151 of the New York Debtor and Creditor Law) and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Creditor is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without

- 8 -

notice to any Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Creditor to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Guarantor to such Creditor under this Guaranty, irrespective of whether or not such Creditor shall have made any demand hereunder. Each Creditor agrees to use reasonable efforts to notify Company and Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Creditor.

19. All notices and communications hereunder shall be given to the addresses and otherwise made in accordance with Section 12.3 of the Credit Agreement; provided that notices and communications to (a) the Guarantors, shall be directed to the Guarantors, at the address of Company as provided in and in accordance with Section 12.3 of the Credit Agreement, (b) the Bank Creditors, shall be directed to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the Lenders, as applicable, at the address of such party as provided in and in accordance with Section 12.3 of the Credit Agreement, and (c) any Other Creditor at such address as such Other Creditor shall have specified in writing to the Guarantors and Administrative Agent.

20. If claim is ever made upon any Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including the Borrowers), then and in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon such Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or other instrument evidencing any liability of any Borrower, and such Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.

21. (a) ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN XXX XXXXX, XXXXXX XXX XXXX XX XXX XXXX. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS GUARANTY, EACH PARTY HERETO, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY (1) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS; (2) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; (3) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO IT AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 19; (4) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (3) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE APPLICABLE PARTY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER SUCH MAKING; AND (5)

- 9 -

AGREES THE CREDITORS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

(b) EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS GUARANTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY COURT OR JURISDICTION, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THOSE REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (a) ABOVE, IN RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR DIRECTLY RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(c) THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO CHOICE OF LAW RULES, OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

22. In the event that all of the capital stock of one or more Guarantors is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of or liquidated in compliance with the requirements of clause (v) of Section 8.3 or Section 8.4 of the Credit Agreement (or such sale or other disposition or liquidation has been approved in writing by the Required Lenders (or all Lenders if required by Section 12.1 of the Credit Agreement)) and the proceeds of such sale, disposition or liquidation are applied in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to the extent applicable, such Guarantor shall be released from this Guaranty and this Guaranty shall, as to each such Guarantor or Guarantors, terminate, and have no further force or effect (it being understood and agreed that the sale of one or more Persons that own, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or partnership interests of any Guarantor shall be deemed to be a sale of such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 22).

23. This Guaranty and any amendments or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Borrowers and Administrative Agent.

24. All payments made by any Guarantor hereunder will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense.

25. It is understood and agreed that any Subsidiary of Company that is required to become a party to this Guaranty after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 7.12 of the Credit Agreement shall automatically become a Guarantor hereunder upon the execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of an instrument substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (a “Supplement”) and the delivery of same to Administrative Agent, with the same force and effect as if originally named as a party herein. The execution and delivery of any instrument adding an additional party to this Guaranty shall not require the consent of any party hereunder or of any Secured Creditor. The rights and obligations of each party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new party hereto.

- 10 -

26. On the Termination Date, this Guaranty shall automatically terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth herein shall survive such termination) and Administrative Agent, at the request and expense of the relevant Guarantor, will execute and deliver to such Guarantor a proper instrument or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Guaranty.

All reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders to obtain such an opinion shall be paid by Company.

2.3 Restrictions on Pledges. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any Loan Document (except for Section 2.2 of this Agreement and Section 12.22 of the Credit Agreement), (a) neither Company nor any Domestic Subsidiary of Company (individually or in combination) shall pledge more than 65% of the stock of any Foreign Subsidiary (or more than 65% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such Foreign Subsidiary entitled to vote) and (b) no Foreign Subsidiary of Company shall pledge the stock of any Subsidiary to secure any obligations of any Borrower that is a United States person within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(30) (any of the foregoing stock not subject to the exception provided in Section 2.2, the “Excluded Stock”). For purposes of this Section 2.3, Subsidiary shall include any Unrestricted Entity.

3. PLEDGE OF SECURITIES, ETC.

3.1 Pledge. To secure the Obligations, and for the purposes set forth in Section 1 hereof, each Pledgor hereby grants and pledges to the Pledgee a security interest in all of such Pledgor’s right, title and interest in the following property (all of which is hereinafter referred to as the “Collateral”) now or hereafter owned by such Pledgor: (i) the shares of stock, the limited liability company interests and the other Capital Stock described on Annex A hereto (and in and to all certificates or instruments evidencing any and/or all of the foregoing) (the “Initial Pledged Securities”); (ii) all of such Pledgor’s right, title and interest in and to any other Securities (and in and to all certificates or instruments evidencing such Securities) (the “Additional Pledged Securities”, and together with the Initial Pledged Securities, the “Pledged Securities”); and (iii) all proceeds of any and all the foregoing as collateral security for the Obligations, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Collateral” shall not include Excluded Securities, except that “Collateral” shall include, in any event, the shares of stock, the limited liability company interests and the other Capital Stock listed on Annex A hereto.

3.2 Delivery of Securities. On the date hereof, each Pledgor has delivered to the Pledgee any and all certificates which it owns representing any Initial Pledged Securities, accompanied by undated stock, partnership or membership powers duly executed in blank by such Pledgor (and accompanied by any transfer tax stamps required in connection with the

pledge of such Securities), or such other instruments of transfer as are reasonably acceptable to the Pledgee. If any Pledgor shall acquire (by purchase, stock dividend or otherwise) any additional Capital Stock required to be pledged under this Agreement at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, such Pledgor will promptly deposit such Capital Stock (or certificates or instruments representing such Capital Stock) with the Pledgee and deliver to the Pledgee certificates or instruments therefor (if any), accompanied by undated stock, partnership or membership powers duly executed in blank by such Pledgor (and accompanied by any transfer tax stamps required in connection with the pledge of such Capital Stock), or such other instruments of transfer as are acceptable to the Pledgee, and will promptly thereafter deliver to the Pledgee a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of such Pledgor describing such Capital Stock in the manner set forth on Annex A hereto and certifying that the same have been duly pledged with the Pledgee hereunder (and upon such delivery Annex A hereto shall be deemed amended to include such additional Capital Stock as Securities).

3.3 Uncertificated Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 hereof, if any Pledged Securities (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) are uncertificated Securities, the respective Pledgor shall promptly notify the Pledgee thereof, and shall promptly take all actions required to perfect the security interest of the Pledgee under applicable law (including, in any event, under Sections 8-313 and 8-321 of the New York UCC if applicable). The Pledgors shall not permit or suffer (a) such uncertificated Pledged Securities to be represented by any certificates or otherwise become “certificated securities” or to be credited to a “securities account” within the meaning of the UCC unless Pledgee has been granted “control” within the meaning of the UCC over such “securities account” (or unless such Securities thereafter become certificated and the provisions of Section 3.2 hereof are complied with) or (b) any person other than the Pledgee to have “control” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC in respect of the such uncertificated Pledged Securities.

3.4 [Reserved].

4. APPOINTMENT OF SUB-AGENTS; ENDORSEMENTS, ETC. The Pledgee shall have the right to appoint, after the Initial Borrowing Date, one or more sub-agents for the purpose of retaining physical possession of the certificated Pledged Securities, which may be held (in the discretion of the Pledgee) in the name of such Pledgor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Pledgee or any nominee or nominees of the Pledgee or a sub-agent appointed by the Pledgee.

5. VOTING, ETC., WHILE NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. So long as an Event of Default shall not have occurred and be continuing and until the Pledgee gives notice of its intent to exercise its rights under Section 7 hereof during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Securities owned by it, and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof; provided, that no vote shall be cast or any consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken which would violate, result in breach of any covenant contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreement (collectively, the “Secured Debt Agreements”), except to the extent such

violation, inconsistency or impairment shall be waived in accordance with the terms of Section 20 hereof.

6. DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. So long as an Event of Default shall not have occurred and be continuing and until the Pledgee gives notice of its intent to exercise its rights under Section 7 hereof during the continuation of an Event of Default, all cash dividends and distributions payable in respect of the Pledged Securities shall be paid to the respective Pledgor that owns such Pledged Securities; provided, that all cash dividends payable in respect of the Pledged Securities that represent in whole or in part an extraordinary or liquidating return of capital other than pursuant to Section 8.4 of the Credit Agreement shall be paid, to the extent so determined to represent an extraordinary or liquidating return of capital, to the Pledgee and retained by it as part of the Collateral and, prior to enforcement of the Pledgee’s rights hereunder after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, shall be held in an account in the name of the applicable Pledgor maintained with Administrative Agent or another financial institution reasonably acceptable to the Pledgee which account, to the extent requested by Pledgee, is subject to a control agreement in favor of the Pledgee. The Pledgee also shall be entitled to receive directly, and to retain as part of the Collateral:

(a) all other or additional stock or other securities (other than cash) paid or distributed by way of dividend or otherwise in respect of the Pledged Securities;

(b) all other or additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) paid or distributed in respect of the Pledged Securities by way of stock-split, spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar rearrangement; and

(c) all other or additional stock or, except in connection with transactions permitted by the Credit Agreement, other securities or property (including cash) which may be paid in respect of the Collateral by reason of any consolidation, merger, exchange of stock, conveyance of assets, liquidation or similar corporate reorganization.

Nothing contained in this Section 6 shall limit or restrict in any way the Pledgee’s right to receive proceeds of the Collateral in any form in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement. All dividends, distributions or other payments that are received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6 and Section 7 shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Pledgee, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Pledgee as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

7. REMEDIES IN CASE OF EVENTS OF DEFAULT. In case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case, the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights, powers and remedies (whether vested in it by this Agreement, any other Secured Debt Agreement or by law) for the protection and enforcement of its rights in respect of the Collateral, and the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and also shall be entitled, without limitation, to exercise the following rights, which each Pledgor hereby agrees to be commercially reasonable:

(a) to receive all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral otherwise payable to such Pledgor under Section 6 hereof;

(b) to transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Pledgee’s name or the name of its nominee or nominees;

(c) to vote all or any part of the Pledged Securities (whether or not transferred into the name of the Pledgee) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Pledgee the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so); and

(d) to sell, assign and deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale, without demand of performance, advertisement or notice of intention to sell or of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or to redeem or otherwise (all of which are hereby waived by each Pledgor), for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine, provided that at least 10 days’ written notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to such Pledgor. The Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has theretofore been given. Each Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations or otherwise. At any such sale, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Pledgee on behalf of the Secured Creditors may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. Neither the Pledgee nor any Secured Creditor shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall any of them be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto.

8. REMEDIES, ETC., CUMULATIVE. Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Agreement, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement, or any other Secured Debt Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Pledgee or any Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. Unless otherwise required by the Loan Documents, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS.

(a) All moneys collected by the Pledgee upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral, together with all other moneys received by the Pledgee hereunder, shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations as follows:

(i) first, to the payment of all amounts owing the Pledgee of the type described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the definition of “Obligations” in Section 1 hereof;

(ii) second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Primary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 9(e) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Primary Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

(iii) third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), an amount equal to the outstanding Secondary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 9(e) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Secondary Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Secondary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and

(iv) fourth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, and following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 18 hereof, to the relevant Pledgor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement (i) “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditor’s Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, (ii) “Primary Obligations” shall mean (A) in the case of the Loan Document Obligations (as defined in the Subsidiary Guaranty), all principal of, and interest on, all Loans, all Unpaid Drawings theretofore made (together with all interest accrued thereon), and the aggregate Stated Amounts of all Letters of Credit issued (or deemed issued) under the Credit Agreement, and all fees and (B) in the case of the Other Obligations (as defined in the Subsidiary Guaranty), all amounts due under the Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements (other than indemnities, fees (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) and similar obligations and liabilities) and (iii) “Secondary Obligations” shall mean all Obligations other than Primary Obligations.

(c) When payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 9 only) (i) first, to their Primary Obligations and (ii) second, to their Secondary Obligations. If any payment to any Secured

Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

(d) Each of the Secured Creditors agrees and acknowledges that if the Bank Creditors are to receive a distribution on account of undrawn amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued (or deemed issued) under the Credit Agreement (which shall only occur after all outstanding Loans and Unpaid Drawings with respect to such Letters of Credit have been paid in full), such amounts shall be paid to the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and held by it, for the equal and ratable benefit of the Bank Creditors, as cash security for the repayment of Obligations owing to the Bank Creditors as such. If any amounts are held as cash security pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, then upon the termination of all outstanding Letters of Credit, and after the application of all such cash security to the repayment of all Obligations owing to the Bank Creditors after giving effect to the termination of all such Letters of Credit, if there remains any excess cash, such excess cash shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Pledgee for distribution in accordance with Section 9(a) hereof.

(e) Except as set forth in Section 9(d) hereof, all payments required to be made hereunder shall be made (i) if to the Bank Creditors, to Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement for the account of the Bank Creditors, and (ii) if to the Other Creditors, to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each a “Representative”) for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, directly to the Other Creditors.

(f) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 9, the Pledgee shall be entitled to rely upon (i) Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and (ii) the Representative for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the Other Creditors for a determination (which Administrative Agent, each Representative for any Secured Creditors and the Secured Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Pledgee) of the outstanding Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations owed to the Bank Creditors or the Other Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Bank Creditor or an Other Creditor) to the contrary, Administrative Agent and each Representative, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations are outstanding. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from an Other Creditor) to the contrary, the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements are in existence.

(g) It is understood and agreed that the Pledgors shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the

Collateral hereunder and the aggregate amount of the sums referred to in clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, of Section 9(a) hereof.

10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Pledgee hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Pledgee or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Pledgee or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.

11. INDEMNITY. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Pledgee and each Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, employees, agents and servants (individually an “Indemnitee,” and collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, growing out of or resulting from this Agreement or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder (but excluding any claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities or expenses that are Taxes, Excluded Taxes or to the extent arising or resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or from such Indemnitee’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement). If and to the extent that the obligations of the Pledgors under this Section 11 are unenforceable for any reason, each Pledgor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law.

12. FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER-OF-ATTORNEY. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with the Pledgee in executing (where necessary) and, at such Pledgor’s own expense, file and refile under the UCC or other applicable law such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents in such offices as the Pledgee may request and deem reasonably necessary and wherever required by law in order to perfect and preserve the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral and hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements and amendments thereto relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Pledgee such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Pledgee may reasonably require or deem necessary to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto the Pledgee its rights, powers and remedies hereunder.

(b) Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Pledgee as such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the Pledgee’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Pledgee may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

13. THE PLEDGEE AS AGENT. The Pledgee will hold in accordance with this

Agreement all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto and each Secured Creditor, by accepting the benefits of this Agreement, that each acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Pledgee as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Pledgee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in Article XI and Sections 12.19 and 12.22 of the Credit Agreement.

14. TRANSFER BY PLEDGORS. No Pledgor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein (except as may be permitted in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement).

15. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PLEDGORS. Each Pledgor represents and warrants and covenants that (a) it is the legal, record and beneficial owner of, and has good title to, all the Initial Pledged Securities and, when acquired by such Pledgor, all Additional Pledged Securities, in each case, subject to no Lien (except the Lien created by this Agreement and Liens permitted under Section 8.1 of the Credit Agreement); (b) it has full corporate power, authority and legal right to pledge all the Pledged Securities; (c) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Pledgor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Pledgor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law); (d) except as set forth on Schedule 6.4 to the Credit Agreement, except for filings necessary to create or perfect security interests in the Collateral, and except as have been obtained or made on or prior to the Initial Borrowing Date, no material order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any Governmental Authority, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with, (i) the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the performance of the obligations hereunder, (ii) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement against such Pledgor, (iii) the perfection or enforceability of the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral or (iv) except for compliance with or as may be required by applicable securities laws and the applicable UCC, the exercise by the Pledgee of any of its rights or remedies provided herein; (e) the execution and delivery by such Pledgor of this Agreement and the performance of such Pledgor’s obligations hereunder do not (i) contravene any provision of any Requirement of Law applicable to such Pledgor, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except pursuant to the Security Documents) upon any of the property or assets of such Pledgor pursuant to the terms of any Contractual Obligation to which such Pledgor is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound except for such contraventions, conflicts, breaches or defaults that would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, (iii) violate any provision of any Organizational Document of such Pledgor, (iv) require any approval of stockholders or (v) any material approval or consent of any Person (other than a Governmental Authority) except filings, consents, or notices which have been made, obtained or given and except as set forth on Schedule 6.3 to the Credit Agreement; (f) all the shares of the Pledged Securities of any corporation have been duly and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and are subject

Each Pledgor covenants and agrees that it will defend the Pledgee’s right, title and security interest in and to the Securities and the proceeds thereof against the claims and demands of all persons whomsoever; and such Pledgor covenants and agrees that it will have like title to and right to pledge any other property at any time hereafter pledged to the Pledgee as Collateral hereunder and will likewise defend the right thereto and security interest therein of the Pledgee and the Secured Creditors.

SCHEDULE 1.1(c)

Calculation of Mandatory Costs

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

The Associated Costs Rate for any Lender lending from a lending office in a participating member state of the European Community relating to Economic and Monetary Union (other than the United Kingdom) that has adopted the Euro as its lawful currency will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that lending office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that lending office.

3.	The Associated Costs Rate for any Lender lending from a lending office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows:

(a) in relation to a Loan in Sterling:

AB + C(B-D) + E x 0.01

------------------------------ per cent per annum

100 - (A + C)

(b) in relation to a Loan in any currency other than Sterling:

E x 0.01

---------- per cent per annum

300

Where:

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

is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin and the Mandatory Cost and any additional rate of interest specified in Section 3.1(i) (Default Rate) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.

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

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

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

4. For the purposes of this Schedule:

Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Credit Agreement.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

(a)

the jurisdiction of its Payment Office; and

(b)

any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

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

The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Lender for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 6 and 7 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a lending office in the same jurisdiction as its lending office.

The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Associated Costs Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Lender pursuant to paragraph 2, 6 and 7 above is true and correct in all respects.

10.	The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Associated Costs Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Lender pursuant to paragraphs 2, 6 and 7 above.

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

12.

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