Such Incremental Term Facility Advances:

(i) shall be incurred on an Incremental Term Facility Utilisation Date;

(ii) shall be denominated in the Applicable Currency for such Tranche of Incremental Term Facility Advances;

(b) Utilisation Request: Save as otherwise provided in this Agreement and/or the relevant Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement, an Incremental Term Facility Advance will be made by the Lenders to a Borrower at that Borrower’s request if the Agent has received at any time after the Syndication Date from that Borrower a duly completed Utilisation Request in relation to an Incremental Term Facility Advance not later than 10.00 a.m. on a day which is no more than 10 nor less than 3 Business Days prior to the proposed Utilisation Date for such Advance stating:

receipt of which shall oblige such Borrower to borrow the amount requested on the date stated upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement and the relevant Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement.

(c) Reduction of Incremental Term Facility Commitment: The total Incremental Term Facility Commitments under a given Tranche shall (i) be permanently reduced on each Incremental Term Facility Utilisation Date in respect of such Tranche in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Term Facility Advances of such Tranche incurred on each such date, (ii) terminate in its entirety to the extent not theretofore terminated on the Termination Date for such Tranche of Incremental Term Facility Advances (after giving effect to any Incremental Term Facility Advances of such Tranche to be made on such date) and (iii) prior to the termination of the total Incremental Term Facility Commitment in respect of such Tranche, be permanently reduced from time to time to the extent required by Clause 13.3 (Application of Mandatory Prepayments).

(c) If any Indemnifying Lender is not permitted (by its constitutional documents or any applicable Law) to comply with paragraph (b) above, then that Indemnifying Lender will not be obliged to comply with paragraph (b) and shall instead be deemed to have taken, on the date the relevant Documentary Credit is issued (or if later, on the date that Indemnifying Lender’s participation in the Documentary Credit is transferred or assigned to that Indemnifying Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), an undivided interest and participation in the Documentary Credit in an amount equal to its L/C Proportion of that Documentary Credit. On receipt of demand from the Agent, that Indemnifying Lender shall pay to the Agent (for the account of the L/C Bank) an amount equal to its L/C Proportion of the amount demanded under paragraph (b) above.

(d) The relevant Borrower shall immediately on demand reimburse any Indemnifying Lender for any payment it makes to the L/C Bank under this Clause 5.6 in respect of that Documentary Credit.

(f) The obligations of any Indemnifying Lender under this Clause 5.6 will not be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 5.6 would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 5.6 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any other person) including:

(i) any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor, any beneficiary under a Documentary Credit or other person;

(iv) any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of an Obligor, any beneficiary under a Documentary Credit or any other person;

In each such case, that Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Agent’s record of the terms of such telephone call in the absence of manifest error.

6.2 General Conditions to Utilisation of Swingline Facility Advances

If a Borrower requests a Swingline Facility Advance in accordance with Clause 6.1 (Conditions to Utilisation of Swingline Facilities); and, on the proposed date for the making of such Swingline Facility Advance:

6.4 Swingline Facility Lender’s Participation

(a) Each Swingline Facility Lender will participate through its Facility Office in each Swingline Facility Advance made pursuant to this Clause 6 in its respective Proportion immediately prior to the making of that Advance.

(b) The Agent shall promptly notify each Swingline Facility Lender of the amount, currency and Euro Amount of each Swingline Facility Advance upon receipt of a Utilisation Request.

6.5 Reduction of Available Commitment

If a Swingline Facility Lender’s Swingline Facility Commitment is reduced in accordance with the terms hereof after the Agent has received the Utilisation Request for a Swingline Facility Advance and such reduction was not taken into account in the Available Swingline Facility, then both the Euro Amount of the relevant Swingline Facility Advance and the amount of that Swingline Facility Advance made or to be made shall be reduced accordingly.

6.6 Purchase of Swingline Participations

(a) On any Business Day a Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, by written notice given to the Agent (and to the other Swingline Facility Lenders) require the Revolving Facility Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Facility Outstandings. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of such Swingline Facility Outstandings in which the Revolving Facility Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to each Revolving Facility Lender, specifying in such notice each such Revolving Facility Lender’s Proportion of such Swingline Facility

Outstandings. Each Revolving Facility Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Swingline Facility Lenders, such Revolving Facility Lender’s Proportion of such Swingline Facility Outstandings.

(b) Each Revolving Facility Lender acknowledges and agrees that its respective obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Facility Outstandings pursuant to this Clause 6.6 is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of any Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Facility Lender shall comply with its obligations under this Clause 6.6 by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the same manner as provided in Clause 35 (Payments) and the Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Swingline Facility Lender the amount so received by it from each such Revolving Facility Lender.

(c) The Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Facility Outstandings acquired pursuant to this Clause 6.6 and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Facility Outstandings shall be made to the Agent and not to the applicable Swingline Facility Lender. Any amounts received by a Swingline Facility Lender from the applicable Borrower (or other party on behalf of such Borrower) in respect of any Swingline Facility Outstandings after receipt by such Swingline Facility Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Agent; any such amounts received by the Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Agent to the Revolving Facility Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this Clause 6.6 and to such Swingline Facility Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to such Swingline Facility Lender or to the Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower. The purchase of participations in Swingline Facility Outstandings pursuant to this Clause 6.6 shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of any Default in the payment thereof.

6.7 Consequences of a Swingline Facility Advance not being repaid

(a) If a Swingline Facility Advance is not repaid on its due date, each Revolving Facility Lender must pay to the Agent for the account of the Swingline Facility Lenders an amount calculated as described below within three Business Days of demand by the Agent.

(b) The amount (if any) required to be paid by a Revolving Facility Lender is the proportion of the Swingline Facility Advance not repaid which the Revolving Facility Commitment of that Revolving Facility Lender bears to the aggregate amount of the Revolving Facility Commitments less the amount of its participation, before any adjustment under this Clause 6.7, in the unpaid amount of the Swingline Facility Advance together with any interest accrued and unpaid on that amount from the date on which such Swingline Facility Advance was made to the date of payment by that Revolving Facility Lender. If this produces a negative figure for a Revolving Facility Lender, no amount need be paid by that Revolving Facility Lender.

(c) On a payment under this Clause 6.7, the paying Revolving Facility Lender will be subrogated to the rights of the Swingline Facility Lenders which have shared in the payment received.

(d) If and to the extent the paying Revolving Facility Lender is not able to rely on its rights under paragraph (c) above, the applicable Borrower shall be liable to the paying Revolving Facility Lender for a debt equal to the amount the paying Revolving Facility Lender has paid under this Clause 6.7 and that Borrower’s liability to the Swingline Facility Lenders will be reduced accordingly.

(e) Any payment under this Clause 6.7 does not reduce the obligations in aggregate of the applicable Borrower.

7. UNCOMMITTED INCREMENTAL FACILITIES

The date of the consummation of a Permitted Acquisition (as well as the date on which any Indebtedness assumed as part of such Permitted Acquisition is to be refinanced) or, as the case may be, the date of the redemption of the Senior Subordinated Notes or New Senior Subordinated Notes being prepaid with the proceeds of such Incremental Term Facility Advance, shall occur no later than 10 Business Days after the date of the incurrence of such Incremental Term Facility Advance;

(I) each Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement shall specifically designate, with the approval of the Agent, that the Tranche of the Incremental Term Facility Commitments being provided thereunder shall be a new Tranche which shall exist separately from any existing Tranche of the Incremental Term Facility, Incremental Term Facility Commitments or other Term Facility Advance, unless the requirements of paragraph (c) (Constitution of each Tranche of Incremental Term Facility) of this Clause 7.1 are satisfied in which case such Tranche shall be added on to an existing Tranche of the Incremental Term Facility (or Incremental Term Facility Commitments) or another D Facility Advance in accordance with paragraph (c) (Constitution of each Tranche of Incremental Term Facility) of this Clause 7.1;

(J) all Incremental Term Facility Advances (and all interest, fees and other amounts payable thereon) shall be obligations under this Agreement and the other applicable Finance Documents and shall be secured by the Security Documents, on a pari passu basis with all other Term Facility Outstandings; and

(K) each Lender agreeing to provide an Incremental Term Facility Commitment pursuant to an Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement shall, subject to the satisfaction of the relevant conditions set forth in this Agreement, make Incremental Term Facility Advances under the Tranche specified in such Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement as provided in Clause 4.2 (Conditions to Utilisation of Incremental Term Facility) and such Advances shall thereafter be deemed to be Incremental Term Facility Advances under such Tranche for all purposes of this Agreement and the other applicable Finance Documents.

(b) Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement

At the time of the provision of Incremental Term Facility Commitments pursuant to this Clause 7, the relevant Borrowers, each other Obligor, the Agent and each such Lender or other Eligible Institution which agrees to provide an Incremental Term Facility Commitment (each, an “Incremental Term Facility Lender”) shall execute and deliver to the relevant Borrower(s) and the Agent an Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement, appropriately completed (with the effectiveness of the Incremental Term Facility Commitment provided therein to occur on the date set forth in such Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement, which date in any event shall be no earlier than the date on which all fees required to be paid in connection therewith at the time of such effectiveness shall have been paid, all conditions set forth in this Clause 7 shall have been satisfied and all other conditions precedent that may be set forth in such Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement shall have been satisfied). In addition on or prior to the effective date of the respective Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement:

(i) the Parent, the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries shall have delivered such technical amendments, modifications and/or supplements to the respective Security Documents as are reasonably requested by the Agent to ensure that the additional Facilities Obligations to be incurred pursuant to the Incremental Term Facility Commitments are secured by, and entitled to the benefits of, the Security Documents (to the extent required by the terms of this Agreement), and each of the Lenders hereby agrees to, and authorises the Security Trustee to enter into, any such technical amendments, modifications and/or supplements;

(ii) the Agent shall have received an opinion or opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and dated such date, covering such of the matters set forth in the opinions of counsel delivered to the Agent on the Initial Borrowing Date pursuant to Clause 3.1 (Conditions Precedent) as may be reasonably requested by the Agent, and such other matters incident to the transactions contemplated thereby as the Agent may reasonably request;

(iii) the relevant Borrower(s) and the other Obligors shall have delivered to the Agent such other officers’ certificates, resolutions and evidence of good standing as the Agent shall reasonably request; and

(iv) in addition to the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Part I of Schedule 3 (Conditions Precedent to First Utilisation), the Agent shall have received from the Authorised Representative of each relevant Borrower a certificate certifying that the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a)(i)(A), (B) and (C) of Clause 7.1 (Incremental Term Facility) have been satisfied (together with calculations demonstrating same (where applicable) in reasonable detail and copies of the certificate set forth in such paragraph (a)(i)(C)) of Clause 7.1 (Incremental Term Facility).

The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement and, at such time, Part I of

Schedule 1 (Lenders and Commitments) shall be deemed modified to reflect the Incremental Term Facility Commitments of such Incremental Term Facility Lenders.

(c) Constitution of each Tranche of Incremental Term Facility

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Clause 7.1, the Incremental Term Facility Commitments provided by an Incremental Term Facility Lender or Incremental Term Facility Lenders, as the case may be, pursuant to each Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement shall constitute a new Tranche, which shall be separate and distinct from the existing Tranches pursuant to this Agreement provided that, with the consent of the Agent, the parties to a given Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement may specify therein that the respective Incremental Term Facility Advance made pursuant thereto shall constitute part of, and be added to, an existing Tranche of Incremental Term Facility Advances or to the D1 Facility Advances or D2 Facility Advances, in either case so long as the following requirements are satisfied:

(i) the Incremental Term Facility Advances to be made pursuant to such Incremental Term Facility Commitment Agreement shall be made to the same Borrowers, shall be denominated in the same currency, shall have the same Final Maturity Date and shall have the same Applicable Margins as the Facility to which the new Incremental Term Facility Advances are being added;

(ii) the new Incremental Term Facility Advances shall have the same scheduled repayment dates as then remain with respect to the Tranche to which such new Incremental Term Facility Advances are being added (with the amount of each repayment applicable to such new Incremental Term Facility Advances to be the same (on a proportionate basis) as is theretofore applicable to the Tranche to which such new Incremental Term Facility Advances are being added, thereby increasing the amount of each then remaining repayment of the respective Tranche proportionately); and

(iii) on the date of the making of such new Incremental Term Facility Advances, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Clause 15 (Interest on Term Facility Advances), such new Incremental Term Facility Advance shall be added to (and form part of) the Term Facility Outstandings of the respective Tranche on a pro rata basis (based on the relative sizes of the various Term Facility Outstandings), so that each Lender will participate proportionately in each then Term Facility Outstandings of the respective Tranche, and so that the existing Lenders with respect to such Tranche continue to have the same participation (by amount) in each borrowing as they had before the making of the new Incremental Term Facility Advances of such Tranche.

7.2 Incremental Revolving Facility

(a) Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments

(i) Each Borrower shall have the right, in consultation and coordination with the Agent as to all of the matters set forth below in this Clause 7.2, but without requiring the consent of any of the Lenders, to request at any time and from

(B) any Lender (including Eligible Institutions) may so provide an Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment without the consent of the Agent or any other Lender;

(C) each of the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments shall be made available to the relevant Borrowers;

(ii) the Agent shall have received an opinion or opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and dated such date, covering such of the matters set forth in the opinions of counsel delivered to the Agent on the Initial Borrowing Date pursuant to Clause 3.1 (Conditions Precedent) as may be reasonably requested by the Agent, and such other matters incident to the transactions contemplated thereby as the Agent may reasonably request;

9.2 Rollover Advances

Without prejudice to a Borrower’s obligation to repay the full amount of each Revolving Facility Advance on the applicable Repayment Date, where, on the same day on which that Borrower is due to repay a Revolving Facility Advance (a “Maturing Advance”) that Borrower has also requested that a Revolving Facility Advance in the same currency as the Maturing Advance be made to it (a “Rollover Advance”), subject to the Lenders being obliged to make such Rollover Advance under Clause 4.1 (Conditions to Utilisation), the amount to be so repaid and the amount to be so drawn down shall be netted off against each other so that the amount which that Borrower is actually required to repay or, as the case may be, the amount which the Lenders are actually required to advance to that Borrower, shall be the net amount remaining after such netting off provided that such Borrower shall not be

permitted to rollover any Advances denominated in an Optional Currency to the extent that such Advance, when notionally converted into euros at the Agent’s Spot Rate of Exchange on the Quotation Date for the next Term and aggregated with the Euro Amount of all other Revolving Facility Outstandings would result in the aggregate amount of all Revolving Commitments being exceeded by an amount greater than 5 per cent.

9.3 Cash Collateralisation of Documentary Credits

In relation to any unexpired Documentary Credit, a Borrower may give the Agent not less than 3 Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to repay a Documentary Credit issued to it, and, having given such notice, shall procure that the relevant Outstanding L/C Amount in respect of such Documentary Credit is reduced to zero and repaid in full by providing cash cover therefor (in accordance with Clause 5 (Documentary Credits)) or by reducing the Outstanding L/C Amount of such Documentary Credit or by cancelling such Documentary Credit and returning the original to the L/C Bank or the Agent on behalf of the Lenders.

(c) After giving effect to the termination of the Commitments of any Lender pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (b) above, unless the respective Lender continues to have Term Facility Outstandings or other Commitments (if any) hereunder, such Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement, except with respect to indemnifications under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Clauses 18 (Taxes), 19 (Increased Costs), 33 (Borrower’s Indemnities), 37 (Sharing Among the Finance Parties) and 40 (Costs and Expenses)), which shall survive as to such repaid Lender.

(i) in the case of the repayment of Revolving Facility Outstandings of any Lender pursuant to this paragraph (b), the Revolving Facility Commitment of such Lender (if any), is terminated concurrently with such repayment (at which time Part I of Schedule 1 (Lenders and Commitments) shall be deemed modified to reflect the changed Revolving Facility Commitments); and

(ii) in the case of the repayment of any Term Facility Outstandings of any Lender pursuant to this paragraph (b), the Term Facility Commitment of such Lender (if any) is terminated concurrently with such repayment (at which time Part I of Schedule 1 (Lenders and Commitments) shall be deemed modified to reflect the changed Term Facility Commitments).

12.2 Right of Prepayment and Cancellation in relation to a single Lender

If any Lender is owed any amounts as set out in paragraph (b) of Clause 21.1 (Replacement of Lenders), the Borrowers shall have the rights as set out in Clause 21.1 (Replacement of Lenders).

(i) to the prepayment of A Facility Advances, D1 Facility Advances, D2 Facility Advances and any Incremental Term Facility Advances pro rata to the respective Term Facility Outstandings; in relation to each Facility such prepayment shall be applied against all remaining Scheduled Repayments of such Facility pro rata to the respective amounts of such Scheduled Repayments; or

(ii) if the Borrowers so elect, in the following order:

(A) first to the prepayment, in direct order of maturity, of Scheduled Repayments of Term Facilities which will be due within 15 months

after the date of the respective voluntary prepayment, applied in respect of each Scheduled Repayment Date to repay in full all Scheduled Repayments of all Term Facilities due on such Scheduled Repayment Date or, if the prepayment is insufficient to make such repayment in full in respect of a Scheduled Repayment Date, to the Scheduled Repayments for each Facility due on such Scheduled Prepayment Date pro rata to the relative amounts of such Scheduled Repayments; and

(B) second, to the prepayment of A Facility Advances, D1 Facility Advances, D2 Facility Advances and any Incremental Term Facility Advances pro rata to the relevant Term Facility Outstandings (as reduced by the prepayments referred to in paragraph (A) above); in relation to each Facility such prepayment shall be applied against all remaining Scheduled Repayments of such Facility pro rata to the respective amounts of such Scheduled Repayments.

(b) Waivable Voluntary Repayment: In relation to any repayment made pursuant to Clause 12.1 (Voluntary Prepayment) in respect of a Term Facility Advance and without prejudice to paragraph (a) above, which is required to be applied to D Facility Advances, if on or prior to the date of the respective voluntary repayment pursuant to this Clause 12, the Existing Borrower has given the Agent written notification that it has elected to give each Lender with D Facility Outstandings the right to waive such Lender’s rights to receive such repayment (the “Waivable Voluntary Repayment”) the Agent shall notify such Lenders of such receipt and the amount of the repayments to be applied to each such Lender’s Proportion of D Facility Outstandings, provided that in no event shall the aggregate amount of any Waivable Voluntary Repayment exceed the aggregate principal amount of Term Facility Outstandings (excluding D Facility Outstandings) after giving effect to any applications of payments (other than any reallocation of the respective Waivable Voluntary Repayment pursuant to this sub-paragraph (b)) to such other Term Facility Outstandings as a result of the repayments then being made pursuant to this Clause 12.

Waive Mechanics: In the event any Lender with D Facility Outstandings desires to waive its right to receive any such Waivable Voluntary Repayment in whole or in part, such Lender shall so advise the Agent no later than 5:00 p.m. five Business Days after the date of such notice from the Agent which notice shall also include the amount the Lender desires to receive with respect to its D Facility Outstandings. If the Lender does not reply to the Agent within such five Business Day period, it will be deemed acceptance of the total payment. If the Lender does not specify an amount it wishes to receive, it will be deemed acceptance of 100 per cent. of the total payment. In the event that any such Lender waives its rights to any such Waivable Voluntary Repayment, the Agent shall apply 100 per cent. of the amount so waived by such Lenders to:

(x) repay the Term Facility Outstandings (excluding the D Facility Outstandings) in accordance with sub-paragraph (a) above; and

(y) to the extent in excess of the amount to be applied pursuant to preceding clause (x), to reduce the Available Revolving Facility on a pro rata basis based on the relative amounts of the Available Revolving Facility and the

Revolving Facility Outstandings (in each case as in effect before giving effect to such reduction).

Cash Collateral: If the Existing Borrower elects to give the notice described above in this sub-paragraph (b) with respect to any voluntary repayment, the amount of the respective Waivable Voluntary Repayment shall be deposited with the Agent on the date the voluntary repayment is otherwise made pursuant to sub-paragraph (a) above (and held by the Agent as cash collateral for the D Facility Outstandings and, but only to the extent Lenders with D Facility Outstandings waive their right to receive their share of the Waivable Voluntary Repayment, for the benefit of all Lenders in a cash collateral account which shall permit the investment thereof in Cash Equivalents reasonably satisfactory to the Agent until the proceeds are applied to the applicable Outstandings) and the respective repayment shall not be required to be made until the seventh Business Day occurring after the date the respective repayment would otherwise have been required to be made.

Partial Waiver of Repayment: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, if one or more Lenders holding D Facility Outstandings waives its right to receive all or any part of any Waivable Voluntary Repayment, but less than all the Lenders holding the respective D Facility Outstandings waive in full their right to receive 100 per cent. of the total payment otherwise required with respect to the respective D Facility Outstandings, then of the amount actually applied to the repayment of the respective D Facility Outstandings of Lenders which have waived in part, but not in full, their right to receive 100 per cent. of such repayment, such amount shall be applied to each D Facility Advance of the respective D Facility Outstandings on a pro rata basis (so that each Lender holding D Facility Outstandings shall, after giving effect to the application of the respective repayment, maintain the same percentage (as determined for such Lender, but not the same percentage as the other Lenders hold and not the same percentage held by such Lender prior to repayment) of each D Facility Advance which remains outstanding after giving effect to such application). For the avoidance of doubt any amount to be applied in accordance with this paragraph shall only apply to such portion (if any) of the D Facility Outstandings which such D Facility Lender has not waived.

12.4 Release from Obligation to make Advances

A Lender for whose account a repayment is to be made under Clause 12.2 (Right of Prepayment and Cancellation in relation to a single Lender) shall not be obliged to participate in the making of Advances (including Revolving Facility Advances) or in the issue or counter-guarantee in respect of Documentary Credits on or after the date upon which the Agent receives the relevant notice of intention to repay such Lender’s share of the Outstandings, on which date all of such Lender’s Available Commitments shall be cancelled and all of its Commitments shall be reduced to zero.

12.5 Notice of Repayment

Any notice of repayment given by the Borrowers or the Parent, as the case may be, pursuant to Clauses 12.1 (Voluntary Prepayment) or 12.2 (Right of Prepayment and Cancellation in relation to a single Lender) shall be irrevocable, shall specify the date upon which such repayment is to be made and the amount of such repayment and shall oblige that Borrower to make such repayment on such date.

12.6 Restrictions on Repayment

No Obligor shall repay all or any part of any Advance (including, at any time, a Revolving Facility Advance) except at the times and in the manner expressly provided for in this Agreement.

12.7 Cancellation upon Repayment

No amount repaid under this Agreement may subsequently be reborrowed other than any amount of a Revolving Facility Advance or, as the case may be, a Swingline Facility Advance repaid in accordance with Clause 9.1 (Repayment of Revolving Facility Advances) and upon any repayment (other than in respect of a Revolving Facility Advance, as aforesaid) the availability of the relevant Facility shall be reduced by an amount corresponding to the amount of such repayment and the Available Commitment of each Lender in relation to that Facility shall be cancelled in an amount equal to such Lender’s Proportion of the amount repaid. In the event the proceeds of any repayment applied in accordance with Clauses 12 (Voluntary Prepayment) and 13 (Mandatory Prepayment) exceeds the amount of Term Facility Outstandings at such time, any such excess shall be applied to permanently reduce the Available Revolving Facility.

13. MANDATORY PREPAYMENT

(a) Equity Issue: The Parent shall procure that on each date on which the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than a member of the CEAL Group to which the CEAL Exception Conditions apply) receives any net cash proceeds from any sale or issuance of Preferred Stock or common equity of (or cash capital contributions to) the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries an amount equal to 50 per cent. of the Net Cash Proceeds of the respective equity issuance or capital contribution shall be applied in accordance with Clause 13.3 (Application of Mandatory Prepayments), other than in relation to:

(i) the issuances of the Parent Common Stock in accordance with any employee incentive plan of the Parent and its Subsidiaries (including as a result of the exercise of any options with respect thereto) in an aggregate amount not to exceed €30,000,000 in any fiscal year of the Parent;

Concurrently with each delivery of financial statements pursuant to paragraph (a) (Quarterly Financial Statements) or (b) (Annual Financial Statements) of Clause 23.1 (Information Covenants), the Parent shall also deliver a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of:

For the avoidance of doubt any Net Sale Proceeds held in escrow with a commercial bank which is a Lender with a rating of Al/P1 from S&P shall not be required to be applied in accordance with Clause 13.3 (Application of Mandatory Prepayments) until such Net Sale Proceeds are released from escrow.

(d) Insurance Claims: The Parent shall procure that within 10 days following each date on which the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than a member of the CEAL Group to which the CEAL Exception Conditions apply) receives any proceeds from any Recovery Event, an amount equal to 100 per cent. of the proceeds of such Recovery Event (net of reasonable costs including, without limitation, legal costs and expenses, and taxes incurred in connection with such Recovery Event) shall be applied in accordance with Clause 13.3 (Application of Mandatory Prepayments) provided that:

(i) any net proceeds from Recovery Events received by the Parent and/or its Subsidiaries during any fiscal year of the Parent equal to or less than €10,000,000 shall be excluded; and

(ii) if the net proceeds from Recovery Events received by the Parent and its Subsidiaries when aggregated with the net proceeds received from any other Recovery Events during any fiscal year of the Parent are greater than €10,000,000, then so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists and to the extent that:

(A) the amount of such proceeds which are in excess of €10,000,000, together with other cash available to the Parent and permitted to be spent by it on Capital Expenditures during the relevant period pursuant to Clause 24.1 (Capital Expenditures) (without regard to Clause 24.1(c)(i) (Capital Expenditures) in the case of such other cash), equals 100 per cent. of the cost of replacement or restoration of the properties or assets in respect of which such proceeds were paid as determined by the Parent in good faith;

(B) the Parent has delivered to the Agent a certificate on or prior to the date the payment would otherwise be required pursuant to this Clause 13.1(d) certifying its determination as required by sub-paragraph (A); and

(C) the Parent has delivered to the Agent such evidence as the Agent may reasonably request in form, scope and substance reasonably

satisfactory to the Agent establishing that the Parent reasonably expects to have sufficient resources available to it (including, without limitation, cash, revenues and insurance proceeds, such that the Parent and its Subsidiaries can reasonably be expected to satisfy all obligations of the Parent and its Subsidiaries without any unreasonable delay or extension thereof) for the period from the date of the event giving rise to the Recovery Event and continuing through the completion of the replacement or restoration of respective properties or assets,

then the entire amount of the proceeds of such Recovery Event shall be deposited with the Agent pursuant to a cash collateral arrangement reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and the Parent whereby such proceeds shall be disbursed to the Parent or its order from time to time as needed to pay actual costs incurred by it in connection with the replacement or restoration of the respective properties or assets (pursuant to such reasonable certification requirements as may be established by the Agent), provided further that at any time while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Instructing Group may direct the Agent (in which case the Agent shall, and is hereby authorised by the Parent and the Borrowers to, follow said directions) to apply any proceeds then on deposit in such collateral account to the repayment of the Outstandings hereunder in the same manner as proceeds would be applied pursuant to Clause 6.3 (Application of Proceeds) of the Intercreditor Deed and provided further, that if any portion of such proceeds is not required to be applied as required by the Instructing Group and such proceeds are either (aa) not so used or committed to be so used within one year after the date of the respective Recovery Event, such proceeds shall be applied on the first anniversary date of the respective Recovery Event or (bb) if committed to be used within one year after the date of receipt of such proceeds and not so used within two years after the date of the respective Recovery Event, such proceeds shall be applied on the second anniversary date of the respective Recovery Event, in each case in accordance with the requirements of Clause 13.3 (Application of Mandatory Prepayments).

For the avoidance of doubt any Net Sale Proceeds held in escrow with a commercial bank which is a Lender with a rating of A1/P1 from S&P shall not be required to be applied in accordance with Clause 13.3 (Application of Mandatory Prepayments) until such Net Sale Proceeds are released from escrow.

(e) Permitted Receivables Transactions: On each date upon which the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than a member of the CEAL Group to which the CEAL Exception Conditions apply) receives Permitted Receivables Transaction Proceeds, the Parent or the relevant Subsidiary shall:

(i) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of receipt by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, of such Permitted Receivables Transaction Proceeds:

(A) if the amount of Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings is less than or equal to €200,000,000, be permitted to

retain 100% of the relevant Permitted Receivables Transaction Proceeds; or

(B) if the amount of Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings is greater than €200,000,000 but less than or equal to €300,000,000, be required to apply in accordance with Clause 13.3 (Application of Mandatory Prepayments) the relevant Applicable Proceeds in an amount equal to 50 per cent. of the amount of such Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings less the higher of (i) €200,000,000 and (ii) the Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings prior to receipt of such Applicable Proceeds; or

(C) if the amount of Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings is greater than €300,000,000, be required to apply in accordance with Clause 13.3 (Application of Mandatory Prepayments) the relevant Applicable Proceeds in an amount equal to 100 per cent. of the amount of such Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings less the higher of (i) €300,000,000 and (ii) the Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings prior to receipt of such Applicable Proceeds and, if prior to such receipt, the aggregate Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings were less than or equal to €300,000,000 an amount equal to 50 per cent. of the difference between €300,000,000 and the higher of (i) €200,000,000 and (ii) the Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings prior to receipt of such Applicable Proceeds;

and provided that the maximum aggregate amount of all Applicable Proceeds to be retained by the Parent and its Subsidiaries shall not exceed €250,000,000; and

(ii) if at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, be required to apply in accordance with Clause 13.3 (Application of Mandatory Prepayments) an amount equal to 100 per cent. of such Permitted Receivables Transaction Proceeds received after the occurrence of such Event of Default, to the extent that the amount of the Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings immediately following receipt of such Permitted Receivables Transaction Proceeds exceeds the amount of the Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings immediately before receipt of such Permitted Receivables Transaction Proceeds.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this paragraph (e), in cases where the amount required to be repaid by any Borrower on any date would be less than €1,000,000, the relevant Borrower may defer the respective required repayment until the first date upon which the aggregate amount which would (but for this sentence) be required to be applied pursuant to this paragraph (e) (giving effect to the receipt of proceeds on such date, together with any such proceeds received prior to such date which have not yet been applied pursuant to this paragraph (e) and any receipts thereafter) would equal or exceed €1,000,000.

For the purposes of this Clause 13.1(e):

“Applicable Proceeds” means Permitted Receivables Transaction Proceeds but excluding in any event proceeds of subsequent sales of Receivables Facility Assets pursuant to a Permitted Receivables Transaction after the initial sale date except to the extent to which the respective sale increases Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings under Permitted Receivables Transactions (including for the avoidance of doubt, any Permitted Receivables Transaction entered into prior to the Fifth Amendment and Restatement Effective Date) to an amount in excess of the highest amount of Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings previously attained

“Adjusted Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings” means, at any time, the highest amount of Permitted Receivables Transaction Outstandings attained on or prior to such time.

(i) first, to the prepayment of A Facility Advances, D1 Facility Advances, D2 Facility Advances and Incremental Term Facility Advances pro rata to the respective Term Facility Outstandings; in relation to each Facility such prepayment shall be applied either:

(A) against all remaining Scheduled Repayments of such Facility pro rata to the respective amounts of such Scheduled Repayments; or

(B) if the Borrower so elects, in the following order:

(I) first, to the prepayment, in direct order of maturity of Scheduled Repayments for such Facility which will be due within 15 months after the date of mandatory prepayment; and

(II) thereafter, to the prepayment of all remaining Scheduled Repayments of such Facility pro rata to the respective amounts of such Scheduled Repayments; and

(ii) second, to repay Revolving Facility Outstandings with a corresponding permanent reduction in Revolving Facility Commitments.

(b) Bond Offerings: Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) above, the first €70,000,000 of Net Cash Proceeds referred to in paragraph (c) (Indebtedness) of Clause 13.1 (Repayment from Net Proceeds) received from any incurrence of Indebtedness relating to any issuance of bonds by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries at any time during the period ending on the date falling 6 months after the Effective Date shall, subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) of this Clause 13.3, be applied:

(c) Waivable Mandatory Repayment: In relation to any repayment made pursuant to Clause 13.1 (Repayment from Net Proceeds) or Clause 13.2 (Repayment from Excess Cash Flow) which is required to be applied to D Facility Advances, if on or prior to the date of such repayment pursuant to this Clause 13, the Existing Borrower has given the Agent written notification that it has elected to give each Lender with D Facility Outstandings the right to waive such Lender’s rights to receive such repayment (the “Waivable Mandatory Repayment”) the Agent shall notify such Lenders of such receipt and the amount of the repayments to be applied to each such Lender’s Proportion of D Facility Outstandings, provided that in no event shall the aggregate amount of any Waivable Mandatory Repayment exceed the sum of (x) the aggregate principal amount of Term Facility Outstandings (excluding D Facility Outstandings) after giving effect to any applications of payments (other than any reallocation of the respective Waivable Mandatory Repayment pursuant to this paragraph (c)) to such other Term Facility Outstandings as a result of the repayments then being made pursuant to this Clause 13 and (y) the Available Revolving Facility as same will be in effect after giving effect to any reductions thereto (other than as a result of any reallocation of the respective Waivable Mandatory Repayment pursuant to this Clause 13) concurrently being made.

Waiver Mechanics: In the event any such Lender with D Facility Outstandings desires to waive such Lender’s right to receive any such Waivable Mandatory Repayment in whole or in part, such Lender shall so advise the Agent no later than 5:00 p.m. five Business Days after the date of such notice from the Agent which notice shall also include the amount the Lender desires to receive with respect to its D Facility Outstandings. If the Lender does not reply to the Agent within such five Business Day period, it will be deemed acceptance of the total payment. If the Lender does not specify an amount it wishes to receive, it will be deemed acceptance of 100 per cent. of the total payment. In the event that any such Lender waives such Lender’s rights to any such Waivable Mandatory Repayment, the Agent shall apply 100 per cent. of the amount so waived by such Lenders to (x) repay the Term Facility

Outstandings (excluding the D Facility Outstandings) in accordance with paragraph (a) above and (y) to the extent in excess of the amount to be applied pursuant to preceding clause (x), to reduce the Available Revolving Facility on a pro rata basis based on the relative amounts of the Available Revolving Facility and the Revolving Facility Outstandings (in each case as in effect before giving effect to such reduction).

Cash Collateral: If the Existing Borrower elects to give the notice described above in this paragraph (c) with respect to any such repayment, the amount of the respective Waivable Mandatory Repayment shall be deposited with the Agent on the date such repayment is otherwise made pursuant to paragraph (a) above (and held by the Agent as cash collateral for the D Facility Outstandings and, but only to the extent Lenders with D Facility Outstandings waive their right to receive their share of the Waivable Mandatory Repayment, for the benefit of all Lenders in a cash collateral account which shall permit the investment thereof in Cash Equivalents reasonably satisfactory to the Agent until the proceeds are applied to the applicable Outstandings) and the respective repayment shall not be required to be made until the seventh Business Day occurring after the date the respective repayment would otherwise have been required to be made.

Partial Waiver of Repayment: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, if one or more Lenders holding D Facility Outstandings waives its right to receive all or any part of any Waivable Mandatory Repayment, but less than all the Lenders holding the respective D Facility Outstandings waive in full their right to receive 100 per cent. of the total payment otherwise required with respect to the respective D Facility Outstandings, then of the amount actually applied to the repayment of the respective D Facility Outstandings of Lenders which have waived in part, but not in full, their right to receive 100 per cent. of such repayment, such amount shall be applied to each D Facility Advance of the respective D Facility Outstandings, on a pro rata basis (so that each Lender holding D Facility Outstandings shall, after giving effect to the application of the respective repayment, maintain the same percentage (as determined for such Lender, but not the same percentage as the other Lenders hold and not the same percentage held by such Lender prior to repayment) of each D Facility Advance which remains outstanding after giving effect to such application). For the avoidance of doubt any amount to be applied in accordance with this paragraph shall only apply to such portion (if any) of the D Facility Outstandings which such D Facility Lender has not waived.

(d) Revolving Facility: Any repayment of any Revolving Facility Outstandings under this Agreement shall be applied first against Revolving Facility Advances and when all Revolving Facility Advances have been repaid in full, to provide cash collateral in respect of any Outstanding L/C Amounts.

If, in relation to any Interest Period or Term:

(a) the Relevant Interbank Rate is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks or Federal Funds brokers, as the case may be, and, at or about 11.00 a.m. on the Quotation Date for such Interest Period or Term, none or only one of the Reference

102

Banks or Federal Funds brokers, as the case may be, supplies a rate for the purpose of determining the Relevant Interbank Rate for the relevant period; or

(b) before the close of business in London on the Quotation Date for such Interest Period or Term (or in relation to a Swingline Advance, before 1:00 p.m. on any day), the Agent has been notified by a Lender or each of a group of Lenders to whom in aggregate 35 per cent. or more of the relevant Advance is owed (or, in the case of an undrawn Advance, if made, would be owed) that the cost to it of obtaining matching deposits for the relevant Advance in the Relevant Interbank Market would be in excess of the Relevant Interbank Rate,

then the Agent shall notify the Parent and the Lenders of such event and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Clause 16.2 (Substitute Interest Period and Interest Rate) shall apply (if the relevant Advance is a Term Facility Advance which is already outstanding or a Rollover Advance). If either paragraph (a) or (b) applies to a proposed Advance other than a Rollover Advance, such Advance shall not be made.

(b) If either paragraph of Clause 16.1 (Market Disruption) applies to an Advance, the rate of interest applicable to each Lender’s portion of such Advance during the relevant Interest Period or Term shall (subject to any agreement reached pursuant to Clause 16.3 (Alternative Rate)) be the rate per annum which is the sum of:

(i) the Applicable Margin;

(ii) the rate per annum notified to the Agent by such Lender before the last day of such Interest Period or Term to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to such Lender of funding from whatever sources it may select its portion of such Advance during such Interest Period or Term; and

16.3 Alternative Rate

If:

(a) Clause 16.1 (Market Disruption) applies; or

(b) by reason of circumstances affecting the Relevant Interbank Market during any period of 3 consecutive Business Days, the Relevant Interbank Rate (as appropriate) is not available to prime banks in the Relevant Interbank Market,

103

then, if the Agent or the Parent so requires, the Agent and the Parent shall enter into negotiations with a view to agreeing an alternative basis within one month:

(i) for determining the rate of interest from time to time applicable to Advances; and/or

(ii) upon which the Advances may be maintained (whether in euro or some other currency) thereafter,

(ii) that Finance Party has obtained, utilised and retained that Tax Credit,

the Finance Party shall (subject to paragraph (b) below and to the extent that such Finance Party can do so without prejudicing the availability and/or the amount of the Tax Credit and the right of that Finance Party to obtain any other benefit, relief or allowance which may be available to it) pay to the Obligor such amount which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been made by the Obligor.

(b) (i) Each Finance Party shall have an absolute discretion, consistent with the policies of such Finance Party, as to the time at which and the order and manner in which it realises or utilises any Tax Credits and shall not be obliged to arrange its business or its tax affairs in any particular way in order to be eligible for any credit or refund or similar benefit.

(ii) No Finance Party shall be obliged to disclose to any other person any information regarding its business, tax affairs or tax computations (including its tax returns).

(iii) If a Finance Party has made a payment to an Obligor pursuant to this Clause 18.3 on account of a Tax Credit and such Tax Credit is subsequently reduced or disallowed that Obligor shall, on demand, pay to that Finance Party the amount which that Finance Party determines will put it (after that payment is received) in the same after-tax position as it would have been in had no such payment been made to that Obligor.

(ii) any member of the Group (other than a member of the CEAL Group to which the CEAL Exception Conditions apply) which owns or acquires an asset the fair market value of which exceeds €5,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) or which is, in the opinion of the Agent (acting reasonably)

material in the context of the Group and which is not subject to a first priority security interest in favour of the Security Trustee,

in each case to ensure that Clause 25.2 (Conduct of Business) and Clause 26.13 (Assets and EBITDA Attributable to Qualified Obligors) are complied with,

shall (unless prohibited by Law or unless the Agent, acting reasonably, is satisfied that the costs and time involved in effecting the relevant Lien would be excessive in comparison with the benefit gained by the Finance Parties as a result of that security interest being effected), within 30 days after being required to do so by the Agent, accede as a Guarantor (if not already a Guarantor in accordance with Clause 27.1 (Accession of New Guarantors)) and execute such additional Security Documents in favour of the Security Trustee (in form and substance satisfactory to the Security Trustee, but containing provisions on substantially the same terms as any corresponding Security which is then already in place over the relevant type of asset under the Security Documents) as the Security Trustee may require.

(a) If following a change (the “Deemed Dividend Rule Change”) in Section 956 of the Code or the regulations, rules, rulings, notices or other official pronouncements issued or promulgated thereunder, counsel for the Parent reasonably acceptable to the Agent does not within 45 days after a request from the Agent or the Instructing Group deliver evidence, in form, scope and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, with respect to any Non-U.S. Subsidiary of the Existing Borrower which has share capital owned directly by the Existing Borrower or one or more U.S. Subsidiaries of the Existing Borrower and which has not already had all of its stock pledged pursuant to the relevant Pledge Agreements that a pledge of 662¤3 per cent. or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of share capital of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary entitled to vote, would cause the undistributed earnings of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes to be treated as a deemed dividend to such Non-U.S. Subsidiary’s United States shareholder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then that portion of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary’s outstanding share capital not theretofore pledged pursuant to the relevant Pledge Agreements shall be pledged to the Security Trustee for the benefit of the Finance Parties pursuant to the Pledge Agreement set out in paragraph 2 of Section A of Part III of Schedule 3 (Security Documents) (or another pledge agreement in substantially similar form, if needed), with all documents delivered pursuant to this Clause 25.8 to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and the Instructing Group.

131

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, in the circumstances otherwise contemplated above, the pledge specified above (so long as such Non-U.S. Subsidiary does not accede as a Guarantor) shall not be required if, following a Deemed Dividend Rule Change, the taking of the action otherwise required above would result in other material negative tax consequences to the Parent and/or its Subsidiaries, and so long as the Parent or the Existing Borrower delivers notification to the Agent to such effect (showing in reasonable detail the material negative tax consequences which would result therefrom). It is understood and agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, the restrictions on the percentage of voting stock of Non-U.S. Subsidiaries required to be pledged shall not apply to (i) any Subsidiaries of the Parent which are not Non-U.S. Subsidiaries of the Existing Borrower and (ii) any Non-U.S. Subsidiaries of the Existing Borrower which are Guarantors or are Subsidiaries of a Non-U.S. Subsidiary of the Existing Borrower which is a Guarantor.

28.18 Sharing Events: Special Sharing and Conversion Provisions Applicable to Revolving Facility Lenders

(a) On the date of the occurrence of a Sharing Event, automatically (and without the taking of any action):

(i) all then Revolving Facility Outstandings then maintained in, and all Outstanding L/C Amounts owed in, one or more currencies other than euros shall be automatically converted into Outstandings maintained in, or owing in, euros (in an amount equal to the Euro Amount of the aggregate principal amount of the respective Outstandings on the date such Sharing Event first occurred, which such Outstandings shall continue to be owed by the Borrowers and shall be immediately due and payable on the date such Sharing Event has occurred); and

(ii) all principal, accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing with respect to such Outstandings or Documentary Credit (except in respect of Utilisations which have not yet occurred) shall be immediately due and payable in euros, taking the Euro Amount of such principal, accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts.

The occurrence of any conversion of Revolving Facility Advances as provided above in this Clause 28.18 shall be deemed to constitute, for purposes of Clause 33.2 (Break Costs), a prepayment of the respective Revolving Facility Outstandings before the last day of any Term relating thereto.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event, automatically (and without the taking of any action):

(i) all then Swingline Facility Outstandings then maintained in one or more currencies other than euros shall be automatically converted into Swingline Facility Outstandings maintained in euros (in an amount equal to the Euro Amount of the aggregate principal amount of the respective Swingline Facility Outstandings on the date such Sharing Event first occurred, which such Outstandings shall continue to be owed by the Borrowers and shall be immediately due and payable on the date such Sharing Event has occurred); and

(ii) all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing with respect to such Outstandings shall be immediately due and payable in euros, taking the Euro Amount of such accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts.

(c) Upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event, each Revolving Facility Lender shall (and hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to) purchase and sell (in each case in euro) undivided participating interests in the Revolving Facility Outstandings and Outstanding L/C Amounts, in such amounts so that each Revolving Facility Lender shall have a share of each such Outstandings equal to its Proportion of the Revolving Facility prior to the incurrence of such Outstandings.

Upon any such occurrence the Agent shall notify each Revolving Facility Lender and shall specify the amount of euros required from such Revolving Facility Lender in

162

order to effect such purchases and sales in the amounts required above (together with accrued interest with respect to the period for the last interest payment date through the date of the Sharing Event plus any additional amounts payable by the Borrowers pursuant to Clause 18 (Taxes) in respect of such accrued but unpaid interest), provided that, in the event that a Sharing Event shall have occurred, each such Revolving Facility Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, automatically and without request, such participating interests (and, as a result thereof, shall be entitled to receive from, or shall owe to, the other Revolving Facility Lenders the respective amounts owing as a result of the purchases and sales of participations contemplated herein). Promptly upon receipt of such request, each Revolving Facility Lender shall deliver to the Agent (in immediately available funds in euros) the net amounts as specified by the Agent. The Agent shall promptly deliver the amounts so received to the various Lenders in such amounts as are needed to effect the purchases and sales of participations as provided above. Promptly following receipt thereof, each Revolving Facility Lender which has sold participations in any of its Revolving Facility Outstandings and Outstanding L/C Amounts (through the Agent) will deliver to each Revolving Facility Lender (through the Agent) which has so purchased a participating interest a participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount. It is understood that the amount of funds delivered by each Revolving Facility Lender shall be calculated on a net basis, giving effect to both the sales and purchases of participations by the various Revolving Facility Lenders as required above.

(d) Upon, and after, the occurrence of a Sharing Event:

(i) no further Utilisations shall be made or occur;

(ii) all amounts from time to time accruing with respect to, and all amounts from time to time payable on account of, the Revolving Facility Advances and Swingline Facility Outstandings (including, without limitation, any interest and other amounts which were accrued but unpaid on the date of such purchase) shall be payable in euros as if each such Outstandings had originally been made in euros and shall be distributed by the relevant Revolving Facility Lenders (or their Affiliates) to the Agent for the account of the Revolving Facility Lenders which made available such Facilities or are participating therein; and

(iii) the Revolving Facility Commitments shall be automatically terminated.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, the failure of any Revolving Facility Lender to purchase its participating interest as required above in any extensions of credit upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event shall not relieve any other Revolving Facility Lender of its obligation hereunder to purchase its participating interests in a timely manner, but no Revolving Facility Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Facility Lender to purchase the participating interest to be purchased by such other Revolving Facility Lender on any date.

(e) If any amount required to be paid by any Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to paragraph (c) above is not paid to the Agent on the date upon which such Revolving Facility Lender receives notice from the Agent of the amount of its participations

163

required to be purchased pursuant to paragraph (c) above, such Revolving Facility Lender shall also pay to the Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount so required to be paid by such Revolving Facility Lender for the purchase of its participations, (ii) the daily average rate which the Agent is offering overnight deposits in euro, during the period from and including the date of request for payment to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Agent and (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapsed during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to paragraph (c) is not in fact made available to the Agent within two Business Days following the date upon which such Revolving Facility Lender receives notice from the Agent as to the amount of participations required to be purchased by it, the Agent shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Facility Lender on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such request date at the rate per annum applicable to Revolving Facility Advances. A certificate of the Agent submitted to any Revolving Facility Lender with respect to any amounts payable under this Clause 28.18 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Amounts payable by any Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to this Clause 28.18 shall be paid to the Agent for the account of the relevant Revolving Facility Lenders, provided that, if the Agent (in its sole discretion) has elected to fund on behalf of such Revolving Facility Lender the amounts owing to such Revolving Facility Lenders, then the amounts shall be paid to the Agent for its own account.

(f) Whenever, at any time after the relevant Revolving Facility Lenders have received from any Revolving Facility Lenders purchases of participations pursuant to this Clause 28.18, the various Revolving Facility Lenders receive any payment on account thereof, such Revolving Facility Lenders will distribute to the Agent, for the account of the various Revolving Facility Lenders participating therein, such Revolving Facility Lenders’ participating interests in such amounts (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such participations were outstanding) in like funds as received, provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by any Revolving Facility Lenders is required to be returned, the Revolving Facility Lenders who received previous distributions in respect of their participating interests therein will return to the respective Revolving Facility Lenders any portion thereof previously so distributed to them in like funds as such payment is required to be returned by the respective Revolving Facility Lenders.

(g) Each Revolving Facility Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests pursuant to this Clause 28.18 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Facility Lender may have against any other Revolving Facility Lender, the Parent, the Borrowers or any other person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Parent, the Borrowers or any other person, (iv) any breach of this Agreement by the Parent, the Borrowers or any Lender or any other person, or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

164

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, upon any purchase of participations as required above, each Revolving Facility Lender which has purchased such participations shall be entitled to receive from the applicable Borrower any increased costs and indemnities (including, without limitation, pursuant to Clauses 33 (Borrower’s Indemnities), 19 (Increased Costs) and 18 (Taxes)) directly from that Borrower to the same extent as if it were the direct Lender as opposed to a participant therein. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that, upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event and after giving effect to the requirements of this Clause 28.18, increased taxes may be owing by it pursuant to Clause 18 (Taxes), which taxes shall be paid (to the extent provided in Clause 18 (Taxes)) by the relevant Borrower, without any claim that the increased taxes are not payable because same resulted from the participations effected as otherwise required by this Clause 28.18.

29. DEFAULT INTEREST

29.1 Consequences of Non-Payment

If any sum due and payable by an Obligor under this Agreement is not paid on the due date therefor in accordance with the provisions of Clause 35 (Payments) or if any sum due and payable by an Obligor pursuant to a judgment of any court in connection with this Agreement is not paid on the date of such judgment, the period beginning on such due date or, as the case may be, the date of such judgment and ending on the Business Day which the obligation of such Obligor to pay the Unpaid Sum is discharged shall be divided into successive periods, each of which (other than the first) shall start on the last day of the preceding such period (which shall be a Business Day) and the duration of each of which shall (except as otherwise provided in this Clause 29) be selected by the Agent.

29.2 Default Rate

During each such period relating thereto as is mentioned in Clause 29.1 (Consequences of Non-Payment) an Unpaid Sum shall bear interest at the rate per annum which is the sum from time to time of 2 per cent., the Applicable Margin (provided that if any Unpaid Sum is not directly referable to a particular Facility the Applicable Margin shall be the D Facilities Margin), the Associated Costs Rate at such time and the Relevant Interbank Rate, on the Quotation Date therefor, provided that:

(a) if, for any such period, the Relevant Interbank Rate, cannot be determined, the rate of interest applicable to each Lender’s portion of such Unpaid Sum shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of 2 per cent., the Applicable Margin, and the Associated Costs Rate at such time and the rate per annum shall be that notified to the Agent by such Lender as soon as practicable after the beginning of such period as being that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to such Lender of funding from whatever sources it may select its portion of such Unpaid Sum during such period; and

(b) if such Unpaid Sum is all or part of an Advance which became due and payable on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period or Term relating thereto, the first Interest Period applicable to it shall be of a duration equal to the unexpired portion of that Interest Period or Term and the rate of interest applicable thereto from time to

165

time during such Interest Period shall be that which exceeds by 2 per cent. the rate which would have been applicable to it had it not so fallen due.

29.3 Maturity of Default Interest

Any interest which shall have accrued under Clause 29.2 (Default Rate) in respect of an Unpaid Sum shall be due and payable and shall be paid by the Obligor owing such sum at the end of the period by reference to which it is calculated or on such other dates as the Agent may specify by written notice to such Obligor.

29.4 Construction of Unpaid Sum

Any Unpaid Sum shall (for the purposes of this Clause 29 (Default Interest), Clause 19 (Increased Costs), Clause 33 (Borrower’s Indemnities) and Schedule 6 (Associated Costs Rate)) be treated as an advance and accordingly in those provisions the term “Advance” includes any Unpaid Sum and the term “Interest Period” and “Term”, in relation to an Unpaid Sum, includes each such period relating thereto as is mentioned in Clause 29.1 (Consequences of Non-Payment).

30. GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY

30.1 Guarantee

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, to each of the Finance Parties the due and punctual payment by the Borrowers of all sums payable under each of the Finance Documents and agrees that promptly on demand it will pay to the Agent each and every sum of money which the Borrowers are at any time liable to pay to any Finance Party under or pursuant to any Finance Document which is due but unpaid.

30.2 Indemnity

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally agrees, jointly and severally, as primary obligor and not only as surety, to indemnify and hold harmless each Finance Party on demand by the Agent from and against any loss incurred by such Finance Party as a result of any of the obligations of the Borrowers under or pursuant to any Finance Document being or becoming void, voidable, unenforceable or ineffective as against the Borrowers for any reason whatsoever (whether or not known to that Finance Party or any other person) the amount of such loss being the amount which the Finance Party suffering it would otherwise have been entitled to recover from the Borrowers

30.3 Continuing and Independent Obligations

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Agreement shall constitute and be continuing obligations which shall not be released or discharged by any intermediate payment or settlement of all or any of the obligations of the Borrowers under the Finance Documents, shall continue in full force and effect until the unconditional and irrevocable payment and discharge in full of all amounts owing by the Borrowers under each of the Finance Documents and are in addition to and independent of, and shall not prejudice or merge with, any other security (or right of set-off) which any Finance Party may at any time hold in respect of such obligations or any of them.

166

30.4 New Accounts

If the Agent makes demand of the Guarantors or any of them pursuant to this Clause 30:

(a) the Agent may open a new account or accounts in respect of the liabilities of the Borrowers to which this guarantee relates or any of them (and if it does not do so it shall be treated as if it had done so at the time it made such demand); and

(b) thereafter any amounts paid by the Borrowers (or any other person) to the Agent in respect of the liabilities of the Borrowers under any of the Finance Documents shall be credited (or be treated as having been credited) to a new account and not as having been applied in or towards payment of such liabilities or any of them.

30.5 Avoidance of Payments

Where any release, discharge or other arrangement in respect of any obligation of the Borrowers, or any Security any Finance Party may hold therefor, is given or made in reliance on any payment or other disposition which is avoided or must be repaid (whether in whole or in part) in an insolvency, liquidation or otherwise and whether or not any Finance Party has conceded or compromised any claim that any such payment or other disposition will or should be avoided or repaid (in whole or in part), the provisions of this Clause 30 shall continue as if such release, discharge or other arrangement had not been given or made.

30.6 Immediate Recourse

None of the Finance Parties shall be obliged, before exercising or enforcing any of the rights conferred upon them in respect of the Guarantors by this Agreement or by Law, to seek to recover amounts due from the Borrowers or to exercise or enforce any other rights or Security any of them may have or hold in respect of any of the obligations of the Borrowers under any of the Finance Documents.

30.7 Waiver of Defences

Neither the obligations of the Guarantors contained in this Agreement nor the rights, powers and remedies conferred on the Finance Parties in respect of the Guarantors by this Agreement or by Law shall be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by:

(a) the winding-up, dissolution, administration or re-organisation of the Borrowers or any other person or any change in the status, function, control or ownership of the Borrowers or any such person;

(b) any of the obligations of the Borrowers or any other person under any Finance Document or any security held by any Finance Party therefor being or becoming illegal, invalid, unenforceable or ineffective in any respect;

(c) any time or other indulgence being granted to or agreed (i) to or with the Borrowers or any other person in respect of its obligations or (ii) in respect of any security granted under any Finance Documents;

(d) any amendment to, or any variation, waiver or release of, any obligation of, or any security granted by, the Borrowers or any other person under any Finance Document;

167

(e) any total or partial failure to take, or perfect, any security proposed to be taken in respect of the obligations of the Borrowers or any other person under the Finance Documents;

(f) any total or partial failure to realise the value of, or any release, discharge, exchange or substitution of, any security held by any Finance Party in respect of the Borrowers’ obligations under any Finance Document; or

(g) any other act, event or omission which might operate to discharge, impair or otherwise affect any of the obligations of any of the Guarantors under this Agreement or any of the rights, powers or remedies conferred upon the Finance Parties or any of them by this Agreement or by Law.

30.8 No Competition

Any rights which any Guarantor may at any time have by way of contribution or indemnity in relation to any of the obligations of the Borrowers under any of the Finance Documents or to claim or prove as a creditor of the Borrowers or any other person or its estate in competition with the Finance Parties or any of them, shall be exercised by such Guarantor only if and to the extent that the Agent so requires and in such manner and upon such terms as the Agent may specify and each Guarantor shall hold any moneys, rights or Security held or received by it as a result of the exercise of any such rights on trust for the Agent for application in or towards payment of any sums at any time owed by the Borrowers under any of the Finance Documents as if such moneys, rights or Security were held or received by the Agent under this Agreement.

30.9 Appropriation

No Finance Party shall be obliged to apply any sums held or received by it in respect of the obligations of the Borrowers under any of the Finance Documents in or towards payment of amounts owing under any of the Finance Documents, and any such sum may, in the relevant Finance Party’s discretion, be credited to a suspense or impersonal account and held in such account pending the application from time to time (as the relevant Finance Party may think fit) of such sums in or towards the discharge of such liabilities owed to it under the Finance Documents as such Finance Party may select.

30.10 Limitation of Liabilities

Notwithstanding that the guarantees of the Guarantors contained in this Clause 30 are guarantees of the whole of each and every sum payable by the Borrowers under each of the Finance Documents, it is agreed and acknowledged that the maximum amount recoverable from each Guarantor under Clauses 30.1 (Guarantee) and 30.2 (Indemnity) shall be limited to the extent set out in this Clause 30 or otherwise, as agreed by the Agent and set out in an Accession Notice executed by an Acceding Guarantor; for this purpose, any amount due to a Finance Party under a Finance Document in a currency other than euro shall be converted into euro at the Agent’s Spot Rate of Exchange on the date on which a demand is made pursuant to either or both of such Clauses.

168

30.11 Matters relating to U.S. law

Each U.S. Guarantor hereby confirms that the Guarantee shall not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the United States Bankruptcy Code, the United States Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or any similar federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each U.S. Guarantor hereby irrevocably agrees that the obligations guaranteed by each such Guarantor shall be limited to such amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other (contingent or otherwise) liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, result in the obligations of such Guarantor in respect of such maximum amount not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

30.12 Matters relating to Dutch law

Each Dutch Guarantor hereby confirms that the Guarantee and any other acts constituted by any of the Finance Documents to which it is a party will not or is not intended to constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Section 2.207c or 2.98c of the Dutch Civil Code which could be invoked by such Dutch Guarantor. Such acts are deemed to be restricted or not entered into, as appropriate, if and to the extent required not to cause such unlawful financial assistance and this Agreement and the relevant Finance Documents shall be construed accordingly.

30.13 Matters relating to Belgian law

Anything herein or in the Finance Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of the Belgian Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the highest of (a) the Net Assets of the Belgian Guarantor at the date hereof, (b) the Net Assets of the Belgian Guarantor at the date of the enforcement of such liability and (c) the total of all amounts borrowed under the Finance Documents which have been on-lent to the Belgian Guarantor. For these purposes, “Net Assets” shall have the meaning given to such term (“l’actif net/netto-actief”) in Article 617 of the Belgian Company Code.

30.14 Matters relating to Luxembourg law

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Guarantee, the payment undertaking of the Luxembourg Guarantor shall be limited at any time to an aggregate amount not exceeding 85 per cent. of the greater of the Luxembourg Guarantor’s own funds (“capitaux propres”) as mentioned in its then most recently approved financial statements, or as mentioned in its last filed financial statements.

30.15 Matters relating to Australian law

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement (including without limitation in this Clause 30) or any Finance Document, it is acknowledged and agreed that, in the case of the pledge of Equity Interests in CEAL only, the aggregate amount secured by said Equity Interests is, until such time as otherwise required by the immediately succeeding sentence, limited to €10,000,000. The purpose of this provision is to ensure that the Finance Parties remain fully secured after the date of the pledge of Equity Interests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Clause 30.15, if at any time, or from time to time, the Instructing Group specify, by written notice to the Parent, Xxxxxxxx International B.V. and the Security Trustee, that the amount secured by the Equity Interests in CEAL be increased to a specified amount, such increase shall automatically occur in accordance with the share mortgage of CEAL between Xxxxxxxx International BV and the Security Trustee. In connection with any notice given in accordance with

169

the immediately preceding sentence, the Lenders hereby agree that they shall not specify that the amount secured by the Equity Interests in CEAL be increased above an amount which is equal to 120 per cent. of the reasonable estimate (by the Instructing Group) of the maximum fair market value of Equity Interest so pledged, in each case as reasonably determined by the Instructing Group; provided that the Parent and its Subsidiaries shall be bound by any determination of such maximum fair market value by the Instructing Group and shall have no rights against any Finance Party whatsoever for any error by the Instructing Group in arriving at such amount. In connection with such increase, the Parent shall, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to, execute and deliver such modifications or supplements to the Security Documents as may be requested by the Security Trustee to evidence the increase of the amount so secured and shall pay all stamp tax (and any other amounts) owing in connection with the increase in the amount secured. All actions required in accordance with this Clause 30.15 shall be taken within 20 days after the Parent’s receipt of any such specification. It is understood that all stamp tax and other charges, expenses or duties payable in connection with any of the actions taken as described above shall be for the joint and several account of the Obligors. If for any reason the Parent does not cause the actions required to be taken as described above to be taken in accordance with any request from the Instructing Group, the Instructing Group (or the Security Trustee at their direction) may (but shall not be required to) take any such actions (and pay any stamp duties, taxes or charges owing in connection therewith) and shall be entitled to immediate reimbursement from the Obligors for any such amounts expended by them.

32.7 Parallel Debt

(a) Each Obligor (in this Clause, each a “Security Party” and together the “Security Parties”) agrees, as primary obligor and not as a surety, that promptly on demand of the Security Trustee it will pay to the Security Trustee any Secured Obligation which is due and unpaid from time to time in accordance with the Finance Documents (the “Parallel Debt”) provided that:

(ii) any payment by a Security Party to the Finance Parties shall satisfy pro tanto the amounts due and payable to the Security Trustee pursuant to this Clause 32.7; and

(iii) any payment by a Security Party to the Security Trustee or the Finance Parties, as the case may be, shall satisfy such Obligor’s obligation under this Clause 32.7 unless such payment is subsequently avoided or reduced by virtue of any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar laws.

(b) Each Security Party, the Security Trustee and each Finance Party acknowledges that the Parallel Debt is enforceable by the Security Trustee on its own behalf. For the avoidance of doubt, each of the parties hereto agree that this Clause 32.7 shall continue to apply notwithstanding there has been a change in the Security Trustee in accordance with Schedule 5 (Security Trustee Provisions).

177

(iv) any amendment to, or any variation, waiver or release of, any obligation of, or any security granted by, any Security Party or any other person under any of the Finance Documents;

(v) any total or partial failure to take, or perfect, any security proposed to be taken in respect of the obligations of any Security Party or any other person under any of the Finance Documents;

(vi) any total or partial failure to realise the value of, or any release, discharge, exchange or substitution of, any security held by the Security Trustee and/or any Finance Party in respect of any Security Party’s obligations under any of the Finance Documents; or

(vii) any other act, event or omission which might operate to discharge, impair or otherwise affect any of the obligations of any of the Security Parties under this Agreement or any of the rights, powers or remedies conferred upon the Security Trustee and/or any Finance Party or any of them by this Agreement, any of the Finance Documents or by Law.

(e) the Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses whatsoever (including, without limitation for negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Agent) arising as a result of its taking, or failing to take, any actions pursuant to or in connection with this Clause 35.6; and

If any part of the Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party becomes repayable and is repaid by that Recovering Finance Party, then:

EBITDA Attributable to Qualified Obligors) and calculations of Applicable Margin and Excess Cash Flow, shall be made in accordance with GAAP as interpreted and applied as at the Sixth Amendment and Restatement Effective Date, it being understood that, consistent therewith, all amounts used in making such calculations shall be determined in euros, converting all amounts in other currencies into euros in a manner consistent with GAAP as interpreted and applied as at the Sixth Amendment and Restatement Effective Date, except that, for the purposes of calculating the numerator only of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio (including, without limitation, for purposes of determining the Applicable Margin), any amounts expressed in currencies other than euros shall be converted into euros (as shown on Reuters ECB page 37 or, if same does not provide such exchange rates, on such other basis as may be satisfactory to the Agent) for the exchange of such currency into euros for the period of 30 consecutive days ended one Business Day prior to the respective determination of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio.

39. ASSIGNMENTS AND TRANSFERS

39.1 Successors and Assignees

This Agreement shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of each party to this Agreement and its or any subsequent successors, permitted assignees and Transferees.

39.2 Assignment or Transfers by Obligors

None of the rights, benefits and obligations of an Obligor under this Agreement shall be capable of being assigned or transferred and each Obligor undertakes not to seek to assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits and obligations under this Agreement without the consent of all the Lenders.

39.3 Assignments or Transfers by Lenders

Any Lender may, at any time, assign all or any of its rights and benefits under the Finance Documents in accordance with Clause 39.4 (Assignments) or transfer all or any of its rights, benefits and obligations under the Finance Documents in accordance with Clause 39.5 (Transfer Certificate) without the consent of any other party provided that notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement:

(a) (x) all or a portion of its Commitments (and related outstanding Facilities Obligations hereunder) and/or its Term Facility Outstandings may be transferred to (i) its parent company and/or any affiliate of such Lender or another Lender which is at least 50 per cent. owned by such Lender or its parent company, (ii) one or more Lenders or (iii) in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, any other fund that invests in bank loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such Lender or another Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor or (y) all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least €1,000,000 in the aggregate for the assigning or transferring Lender(s), of such Commitments (and related outstanding Obligations hereunder) and/or its Term Facility Outstandings hereunder to one or more Eligible Institutions (treating any fund that invests in bank loans and any other fund that invests in bank loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such fund or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor as a single Eligible Institution), provided that, (i) at such time Part I of Schedule 1 (Lenders and Commitments) shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments (and/or Term

185

Facility Outstandings, as the case may be) of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders, (ii) the consent of each L/C Bank and each Swingline Facility Lender shall be required in connection with any assignment or transfer of all or any portion of Revolving Facility Commitments (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (iii) in the case of assignments or transfers pursuant to clause (y) above, the consent of the Agent shall be required (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, the prior written consent of the relevant Borrowers shall be required (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(b) At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Clause 39.3 to a person which is not already a Lender hereunder and which is not a U.S. Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the respective assignee or transferee Lender shall provide to the relevant Borrowers and the Agent the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if appropriate, the form specified in paragraph (e) of Clause 18.1 (Tax Gross-up)).

(c) To the extent that an assignment pursuant to Clause 21.1 (Replacement of Lenders) and this Clause 39 would, at the time of such assignment or transfer, result in increased costs under Clauses 18 (Taxes), 19.1 (Increased Costs) or 20 (Illegality) from those being charged by the respective assigning or transferring Lender prior to such assignment or transfer, then the relevant Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the relevant Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment or transfer). At the time of any such assignment or transfer pursuant to this Clause 39.3, the assigning or transferring Lender shall furnish notice thereof to the Agent.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging or assigning by way of security its Outstandings hereunder to a Federal Reserve Lender in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Lender and, with the consent of the Agent, any Lender which is a fund may pledge or assign by way of security all or any portion of its Outstandings to a trustee for the benefit of investors and in support of its obligation to such investors. No pledge or assignment by way of security pursuant to this paragraph (d) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, a pledge shall not include a charge by way of security.

39.4 Assignments

If any Lender wishes to assign all or any of its rights and benefits under the Finance Documents, unless and until the relevant assignee has agreed with the other Finance Parties that it shall be under the same obligations towards each of them as it would have been under if it had been an original party to the Finance Documents as a Lender, such assignment shall not become effective and the other Finance Parties shall not be obliged to recognise such assignee as having the rights against each of them which it would have had if it had been such a party to this Agreement.

186

39.5 Transfer Certificate

If any Lender wishes to transfer all or any of its rights, benefits and/or obligations under the Finance Documents, such transfer may be effected by novation through the delivery to the Agent of a duly completed and duly executed Transfer Certificate in which event, on the later of the Transfer Date specified in such Transfer Certificate and the fifth Business Day after (or such earlier Business Day endorsed by the Agent on such Transfer Certificate falling on or after) the date of delivery of such Transfer Certificate to the Agent:

(a) to the extent that in such Transfer Certificate the Lender party to it seeks to transfer its rights, benefits and obligations under the Finance Documents, each of the Obligors and such Lender shall be released from further obligations towards one another under the Finance Documents and their respective rights against one another shall be cancelled (such rights and obligations being referred to in this Clause 39.5 as “discharged rights and obligations”);

(b) each of the Obligors and the Transferee party to it shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another which differ from the discharged rights and obligations only insofar as such Obligor and such Transferee have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of such Obligor and such Lender;

(c) subject to Clause 21.1 (Replacement of Lenders), the other Finance Parties and the Transferee shall acquire the same rights and benefits and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed had such Transferee been an original party to the Finance Documents as a Lender with the rights, benefits and obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of such transfer; and

(d) such Transferee shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender.

39.6 Transfer Fee

On the date upon which a transfer takes effect pursuant to Clause 39.5 (Transfer Certificate) the Transferee in respect of such transfer shall pay to the Agent for its own account a transfer fee of €1,500 provided that this fee shall not be payable by any Lender party to this Agreement on the date of this Agreement in respect of transfers made by such Lender prior to the Syndication Date.

39.7 Sub-participations

Subject to Clause 46 (Third Party Rights) any Lender may grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not otherwise transfer or assign all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder except as provided in Clause 39.3 (Assignments or Transfers by Lenders)) and the participant shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and provided that no Lender shall grant any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Finance Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would:

(a) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Facility or Documentary Credit (unless such Documentary Credit is not extended beyond the Final Maturity Date of the Revolving Facility) in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or

187

extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (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 a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory repayment of Term Facility Outstandings or a mandatory reduction in the Available Revolving Facility shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Outstandings shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof);

(b) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Obligor of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(c) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Finance Documents) supporting the Facilities Obligations hereunder in which such participant is participating.

In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Finance Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favour of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that to the extent that the participant may be required to be recognised as the owner (or beneficial owner) for tax purposes, such participant shall be considered as the Lender in applying any of the provisions of the Finance Documents that involve such tax.

39.8 Disclosure of Information

(a) Subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) below, each Lender agrees that it will treat as confidential (in accordance with normal banking procedures) any information with respect to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Finance Document, provided that any Lender may disclose any such information:

(i) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this paragraph (a) by the respective Lender;

(ii) as may be required or is reasonably appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state, Federal or foreign regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the NAIC or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors;

(iii) as may be required or reasonably appropriate in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation;

(iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender;

(v) to the Agent or the Security Trustee;

188

(vi) to such Lender’s Affiliates, employees, auditors, advisors or counsel or to another Lender if the Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information, provided such persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Clause 39.8 to the same extent as such Lender; and

(vii) to any pledgee referred to in Section 39.3(d) or any prospective or actual transferee or participant or their respective investment advisors in connection with any contemplated transfer, pledge, participation, securitisation or hedge of any of the Commitments, any interest therein by such Lender or any other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to any Finance Document or Obligor, provided that such prospective pledgee, transferee, participant or, as the case may be, investment advisor agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in this Clause 39.8.

(b) Each Obligor hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender may share with any of its affiliates any information related to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any non-public customer information regarding the creditworthiness of the Parent and its Subsidiaries), provided that such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Clause 39.8 to the same extent as such Lender.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, any amendments to this Agreement, or any other document, agreement or understanding relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each party to this Agreement and its affiliates (and each employee, representative, or other agent of such party or its affiliates) are authorised to disclose to any and all persons, beginning immediately upon commencement of discussions regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without limitation of any kind, the U.S. federal, state or local tax treatment and tax structure of such transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such party or its affiliates relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, except to the extent that such disclosure is subject to restrictions reasonably necessary to comply with securities laws. For purposes of this authorisation, the “tax treatment” of a transaction means the purported or claimed tax treatment of the transaction, and the “tax structure” of a transaction means any fact that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed tax treatment of the transaction. This paragraph is intended to reflect the understanding of the parties that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have not been offered under “conditions of confidentiality”, as that phrase is used in U.S. Treasury Regulations sections 1.601-4(b)(3) and 301.6111-2(c), and in any state or local law or regulation incorporating all or part of such sections, and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. Nothing herein is intended to imply that any party or its affiliates (or any employee, representative, or other agent of such party or its affiliates) has made or provided to, or for the benefit of, any other party or its affiliates any oral or written statement as to any potential U.S. federal, state or local tax consequences that are related to, or may result from, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. None of the parties provides accounting, tax or legal advice, and each has consulted, or will consult, its own advisers regarding its participation in such transactions.

39.9 Register

The Borrowers hereby designate the Agent to serve as the Borrowers’ agent, solely for purposes of this Clause 39.9, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Advances made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Advances of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrowers’ obligations in respect of such Advances. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Advance made pursuant to such Commitments shall be not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitments and Advances and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Advances shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Advances shall be recorded by the Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Agent of a properly executed and delivered Transfer Certificate pursuant to Clause 39.5 (Transfer Certificate). The Borrowers agree to indemnify the Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Agent in performing its duties under this Clause 39.9 except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

40. COSTS AND EXPENSES

40.1 Transaction Costs

The Parent shall, from time to time on demand of the Agent, reimburse the Agent, the Security Trustee and each of the Arrangers for all reasonable costs and expenses (including legal fees) incurred by them in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of the Finance Documents and the completion of the transactions therein contemplated and primary syndication of the Facilities (including publicity expenses).

40.2 Preservation and Enforcement Costs

The Parent shall, from time to time on demand of the Agent, reimburse each Finance Party for all costs and expenses (including legal fees) incurred in or in connection with the preservation and/or enforcement of any of the rights of such Finance Party under the Finance Documents.

40.3 Stamp Taxes

The Parent shall pay (or cause the relevant Borrower to pay) all stamp, registration, documentary and other taxes (including any penalties, additions, fines, surcharges or interest relating thereto) to which any of the Finance Documents or any judgment given in connection therewith is or at any time may be subject and shall, from time to time on demand of the Agent, indemnify the Finance Parties against any liabilities, costs, claims and expenses resulting from any failure to pay or any delay in paying those taxes. The Agent shall be entitled (but not obliged) to pay those taxes (whether or not they are its primary responsibility) and to the extent that it does so claim under this Clause 40.3.

190

40.4 Compensation

The Parent shall, from time to time on demand of the Agent (and without prejudice to the provisions of Clause 40.2 (Preservation and Enforcement Costs) and Clause 40.5 (Amendments and Waivers)) compensate the Agent at such daily and/or hourly rates as the Agent shall from time to time reasonably determine for all time expended by the Agent, its directors, officers and employees, and for all costs and expenses (including telephone, fax, copying, travel and personnel costs) they may incur, in connection with the Agent’s taking such action as it may consider appropriate in connection with:

(a) the granting or proposed granting of any waiver or consent requested under any of the Finance Documents by the Obligors or any of them;

(b) any actual, potential or suspected breach by an Obligor of any of its obligations under any of the Finance Documents;

(c) the occurrence of any Default; or

(d) any amendment or proposed amendment of any of the Finance Documents requested by the Obligors or any of them.

40.5 Amendments and Waivers

If an Obligor requests any amendment or waiver in accordance with Clause 45 (Amendments), the relevant Obligor shall, on demand of the Agent, reimburse the Finance Parties for all reasonable costs and expenses (including legal fees) incurred by any of the Finance Parties in responding to or complying with such request.

40.6 Management Time of the Agent

Any amount payable to the Agent under this Clause 40 shall include the cost of utilising its management time or other resources and will be calculated on the basis of such reasonable daily or hourly rates as it may notify to the Parent and the Lenders, and is in addition to any fee paid or payable to it under Clause 17 (Commissions and Fees).

40.7 Lenders’ Indemnity

If any Obligor fails to perform any of its obligations under this Clause 40, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Agent, the Arrangers and/or the Security Trustee from and against its Proportion (as determined at all times for these purposes in accordance with paragraph (c) of the definition of “Proportion”) of any loss incurred by any of them as a result of such failure and the relevant Obligor shall forthwith reimburse each Lender for any payment made by it pursuant to this Clause.

40.8 Value Added Tax

(a) All amounts expressed to be payable under any Finance Document by any Obligor to a Finance Party shall be exclusive of any VAT. If VAT is chargeable on any supply made by a Finance Party to any Obligor under any Finance Document (whether that supply is taxable pursuant to the exercise of an option or otherwise), that Obligor shall pay to that Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying that consideration) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT as further consideration.

191

(b) No payment or other consideration to be made or furnished to any Obligor pursuant to or in connection with any Finance Document may be increased or added to by reference to (or as a result of any increase in the rate of) any VAT which shall be or may become chargeable in respect of any taxable supply.

(c) Where a Finance Document requires any party to reimburse a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that party shall also pay any amount of those costs or expenses incurred referable to VAT chargeable thereon.

40.9 Indemnity Payments

Where under any Finance Document an Obligor has an obligation to indemnify or reimburse any Protected Party in respect of any loss or payment, the calculation of the amount payable by way of indemnity or reimbursement shall take account of the likely tax treatment in the hands of that Protected Party (as determined by that Protected Party) of the amount payable by way of indemnity or reimbursement and of the loss or payment in respect of which that amount is payable.

41. REMEDIES AND WAIVERS

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Finance Parties or any of them, any right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law.

42. NOTICES AND DELIVERY OF INFORMATION

42.1 Writing

Each communication to be made under any Finance Document shall be made in writing and, unless otherwise stated, shall be made by fax, telex or letter.

42.2 Giving of Notice

Any communication or document to be made or delivered by one person to another pursuant to any Finance Document shall in the case of any person other than a Lender (unless that other person has by 15 days’ written notice to the Agent specified another address) be made or delivered to that other person at the address identified with its signature below or, in the case of a Lender, at the address from time to time designated by it to the Agent for the purpose of the Finance Documents (or, in the case of a Transferee at the end of the Transfer Certificate to which it is a party as Transferee) and shall be deemed to have been made or delivered when despatched (in the case of any communication made by fax or telex) or (in the case of any communication made by letter) when left at the address or (as the case may be) 5 Business Days after being deposited in the post postage prepaid in an envelope addressed to it at that address provided that any communication or document to be made or delivered to the Agent shall be effective only when received by the Agent and then only if the same is expressly marked for the attention of the department or officer identified with the Agent’s signature below (or such other department or officer as the Agent shall from time to time specify for this purpose).

192

42.3 Use of Websites

(a) An Obligor may satisfy its obligation under any Finance Document to which it is a party to deliver any information in relation to those Lenders (the “Website Lenders”) who accept this method of communication by posting this information onto an electronic website designated by the Parent and the Agent (the “Designated Website”) if:

(i) the Agent expressly agrees (after consultation with each of the Lenders) that it will accept communication of the information by this method;

(ii) both the Parent and the Agent are aware of the address of, and any relevant password specifications for, the Designated Website; and

(iii) the information is in a format previously agreed between the Parent and the Agent.

If any Lender (a “Paper Form Lender”) does not agree to the delivery of information electronically then the Agent shall notify the Parent accordingly and the Parent shall supply the information to the Agent (in sufficient copies for each Paper Form Lender) in paper form. In any event, the Parent shall supply the Agent with at least one copy in paper form of any information required to be provided by it.

(b) The Agent shall supply each Website Lender with the address of, and any relevant password specifications for, the Designated Website following designation of that website by the Parent and the Agent.

(i) the Designated Website cannot be accessed due to technical failure;

(ii) the password specifications for the Designated Website change;

(iii) any new information which is required to be provided under this Agreement is posted onto the Designated Website;

(iv) any existing information which has been provided under this Agreement and posted onto the Designated Website is amended; or

(v) the Parent becomes aware that the Designated Website or any information posted onto the Designated Website is or has been infected by any electronic virus or similar software.

If the Parent notifies the Agent under paragraph (c)(i) or paragraph (c)(v) above, all information to be provided by the Parent under this Agreement after the date of that notice shall be supplied in paper form unless and until the Agent and each Website Lender is satisfied that the circumstances giving rise to the notification are no longer continuing.

(d) Any Website Lender may request, through the Agent, one paper copy of any information required to be provided under this Agreement which is posted onto the

193

Designated Website. The Parent shall comply with any such request within 10 Business Days.

42.4 Electronic Communication

(a) Any communication to be made between the Agent and a Lender under or in connection with the Finance Documents may be made by electronic mail or other electronic means, if the Agent and the relevant Lender:

(i) agree that, unless and until notified to the contrary, this is to be an accepted form of communication;

(ii) notify each other in writing of their electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the sending and receipt of information by that means; and

(iii) notify each other of any change to their address or any other such information supplied by them.

(b) Any electronic communication made between the Agent and a Lender will be effective only when actually received in readable form and in the case of any electronic communication made by a Lender to the Agent only if it is addressed in such a manner as the Agent shall specify for this purpose.

43. ENGLISH LANGUAGE

Each communication and document made or delivered by one party to another pursuant to any of the Finance Documents shall be in the English language or accompanied by a translation of it into English certified (by an officer of the person making or delivering the same) as being a true and accurate translation of it.

44. PARTIAL INVALIDITY

If, at any time, any provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Law of any jurisdiction, such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect:

(a) the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement; or

(b) the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the Law of any other jurisdiction.

45. AMENDMENTS

45.1 Amendments

Except as provided in Clauses 45.2 (Consent), 45.3 (Technical Amendments) and 45.4 (Guarantees and Security), the Agent, if it has the prior written consent of an Instructing Group, and the Obligors affected thereby, may from time to time agree in writing to amend this Agreement or to waive, prospectively or retrospectively, any of the requirements of this

194

Agreement and any amendments or waivers so agreed shall be binding on all the Finance Parties and the Obligors.

45.2 Consent

(a) An amendment or waiver relating to the following matters shall not be made without the prior written consent of all the Lenders:

(i) a reduction in the proportion of any amount received or recovered (whether by way of set-off, combination of accounts or otherwise) in respect of any amount due from an Obligor under this Agreement to which any Lender is entitled;

(ii) a decrease in any Applicable Margin for, or the principal amount of, any Advance, any Documentary Credit or any interest payment, fees or other amounts due under this Agreement to any Lender from an Obligor or any other party to this Agreement (other than the result of any amendment or modification to Clause 24 (Financial Condition) where the primary purpose of such amendment or modification (as determined in good faith by the Parent and the Agent) was not to decrease the pricing pursuant to this Agreement);

(iii) any change in the currency of account;

(iv) the deferral of the date for payment of any principal, interest, fee or any other amount due under this Agreement to any Lender from an Obligor or any other party to this Agreement;

(v) the deferral of any Final Maturity Date, any Termination Date or any Expiry Date;

(vi) any reduction to the percentage set forth in the definition of Instructing Group as included on the date of this Agreement (it being understood that, with the consent of the Instructing Group, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of Instructing Group on substantially the same basis on the extensions of the Term Facilities and the Revolving Facilities as at the Effective Date);

(vii) any amendments, modifications or waiver of any provision to this Clause;

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, an amendment or waiver relating to the following matters shall not be made without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby:

195

(i) any increase in the Commitment of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Available Facility shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Lender, and that an increase in the available portion of any Commitment of any Lender shall not constitute an increase in the Commitment of such Lender);

(ii) in relation to any Swingline Facility Lender every provision of Clause 6 (Swingline Facilities) or alter its rights or obligations with respect to Swingline Facility Advances; and

(iii) in relation to the L/C Bank every provision of Clause 5 (Documentary Credits) or alter its rights or obligations with respect to any Documentary Credits issued by it.

(c) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, an amendment or waiver relating to the following matters shall not be made without the prior written consent of the Majority Lenders of the respective Facility:

(i) any amendment or waiver which would result in a Lender of such Facility being allocated a lesser prepayment, repayment (or commitment reduction) as a result of any alteration of the required application of any prepayments or repayments (or commitment reductions), as between the various Facilities, pursuant to Clauses 9 (Repayment of Revolving and Swingline Facility Outstandings), 10 (Repayment of Term Facility Outstandings), 12 (Voluntary Prepayment) or 13 (Mandatory Prepayment) (although the Instructing Group may (1) waive, in whole or in part, any such prepayment, repayment or commitment reduction, so long as the application, as amongst the various Facilities, of any such prepayment, repayment or commitment reduction which is still required to be made is not altered and (2) agree to the inclusion of additional extensions of credit made after the Initial Borrowing Date (and not pursuant to Commitments as in effect on the Initial Borrowing Date) on substantially the same basis as the other extensions of credit, pursuant to Clauses 11.1 (Voluntary Cancellation) and/or 12.1 (Voluntary Prepayment); and

(ii) any amendment to the definition of “Majority Lenders”; and

(d) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, an amendment or waiver which would amend, modify or waive any Scheduled Repayment applicable to the respective Facility shall not be made without the prior written consent of the Supermajority Lenders of the respective Facility (except that no such consent of the Supermajority Lenders of the affected Facility shall be required in connection with any increase in the Scheduled Repayments of such affected Facility (including, without limitation, as a result of the making of additional Advances pursuant to a given Facility which has the effect of increasing the Scheduled Repayments of such affected Facility on a proportionate basis)).

196

45.3 Technical Amendments

Notwithstanding Clause 45.1 (Amendments), the Agent may determine administrative matters and make technical amendments arising out of manifest errors on the face of this Agreement, where such amendments would not prejudice or otherwise be adverse to the position of any Lender under this Agreement, without reference to the Lenders.

45.4 Guarantees and Security

A waiver of issuance or the release of any Guarantor from any of its obligations under Clause 30 (Guarantee and Indemnity) other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or a release of all or substantially all of the Collateral subject to any Security under the Security Documents other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall require prior written consent of all the Lenders.

45.5 Amendments affecting the Agent

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Agent shall not be obliged to agree to any amendment or waiver if the same would:

(a) amend or waive any provision of Clauses 31 (Agent and Obligors’ Agent), Clause 40 (Costs and Expenses) or this Clause 45; or

(b) otherwise amend or waive any of the Agent’s rights under this Agreement or subject the Agent to any additional obligations under this Agreement.

45.6 Amendments affecting the Security Trustee

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Security Trustee shall not be obliged to agree to any amendment or waiver if the same would:

(a) amend or waive any provision of Clauses 31 (Agent and Obligors’ Agent), Clause 40 (Costs and Expenses) or this Clause 45; or

(b) otherwise amend or waive any of the Security Trustee’s rights under this Agreement or subject the Security Trustee to any additional obligations under this Agreement.

45.7 Replacement of non-Instructing Group Lender

If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination to any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by paragraph (a) of Clause 45.2 (Consent), the consent of the Instructing Group is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then the Existing Borrower shall have the right (so long as all non-consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as described in either paragraphs (a) or (b) below) to either:

(a) replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders (or, at the option of the Existing Borrower if the respective Lender’s consent is required with respect to less than all Outstandings (or related Commitments), to replace only the respective Commitments and/or Outstandings of the respective non-consenting Lender which gave rise to the need to obtain such Lender’s individual consent) with one or more members of the Instructing Group pursuant to Clause 21.1 (Replacement of Lenders) so long as at the

197

time of such replacement, each such member of the Instructing Group consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination; or

(b) terminate each Revolving Facility Commitment and/or Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment of such non-consenting Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment (if such Lender’s consent is required as a result of its Revolving Facility Commitment and/or Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment) and/or repay each Term Facility Outstandings of such Lender which gave rise to the need to obtain such Lender’s consent, in accordance with Clauses 11.1 (Voluntary Cancellation) and/or 12.1 (Voluntary Prepayment), provided that, unless the Commitments terminated, and Outstandings repaid, pursuant to this paragraph (b) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the addition of new Lenders or the increase of the Commitments and/or Outstandings of remaining lenders (who in each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to this paragraph (b) the Instructing Group (determined both (x) before giving effect to the proposed action and (y) as if the Outstandings and Commitments being terminated (and not replaced) were not outstanding) shall specifically consent thereto,

for the avoidance of doubt, the Existing Borrower shall not have the right to replace a Lender, terminate its Revolving Facility Commitment or repay its Outstandings solely as a result of the exercise of such Lender’s rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such Lender) pursuant to paragraph (b) of Clause 45.2 (Consent).

46. THIRD PARTY RIGHTS

(a) A person which is not a party to this Agreement (a “third party”) shall have no right to enforce any of its provisions except that:

(i) this shall not affect any right or remedy of a third party which it would have had if the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Xxx 0000 had not come into effect; and

(ii) each of Clause 5.9 (Exclusion of Liability), Clause 18.2 (Tax Indemnity), Clause 19 (Increased Costs) and Clause 31.9(b) (Exclusion of Liability) shall be enforceable by any third party referred to in such clause as if such third party were a party to this Agreement.

(b) The parties to this Agreement may without the consent of any third party vary or rescind this Agreement.

47. COUNTERPARTS

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, English Law.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

49.4 Proceedings in Other Jurisdictions

Nothing in Clause 49.1 (Courts of England) shall (and shall not be construed so as to) limit the right of the Finance Parties or any of them to take Proceedings against any of the Obligors in any other court of competent jurisdiction nor shall the taking of Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the taking of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction (whether concurrently or not) if and to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

49.5 General Consent

Each of the Obligors consents generally in respect of any Proceedings to the giving of any relief or the issue of any process in connection with such Proceedings including the making, enforcement or execution against any property whatsoever (irrespective of its use or intended use) of any order or judgment which may be made or given in such Proceedings.

49.6 Waiver of Immunity

To the extent that any Obligor may in any jurisdiction claim for itself or its assets or revenues immunity from suit, execution, attachment (whether in aid of execution, before judgment or otherwise) or other legal process and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed to itself, its assets or revenues such immunity (whether or not claimed), such Obligor irrevocably agrees not to claim, and irrevocably waives, such immunity to the full extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdiction.

199

49.7 Waiver of Jury Trial

EACH OBLIGOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ANYWHERE ARISING OUT OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
