ARTICLE II
THE CREDITS

Section 2.01 Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Term Lender having a Term Loan Commitment severally (i) with respect to its Exit Prepetition Continued Loans, continued its loans constituting Term Loan Claims (as defined in the Reorganization Plan) as loans to the Borrower hereunder in Dollars in an aggregate amount not exceeding any such Term Lender’s Exit Prepetition Continued Loan Commitment and (ii) with respect to its Exit DIP Converted Loans, was deemed to have made loans to the Borrower hereunder in Dollars in an aggregate amount not exceeding any such Term Lender’s Exit DIP Converted Loan Commitment, in each case, on a several and not joint basis (such continued loans and loans deemed made hereunder, collectively, the “Term Loans” and each, a “Term Loan”). Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed. The Term Loan Commitment of each Lender was automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the continuation and deemed making of such Lender’s Term Loans on the Effective Date.

Section 2.02 Loans and Borrowings.

(a) Each Loan shall be made, continued, or deemed made, by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Term Loan Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Term Loan Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Term Loans as required hereby.

(b) Subject to Section 2.14, each Term Loan Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Term SOFR Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that (i) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) such Loan shall be deemed to have been made and held by such Lender, and the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender for the account of such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender and (iii) in exercising such option, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to minimize increased costs to the Borrower resulting therefrom (which obligation of such Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it otherwise determines would be disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.14(a) shall apply); provided, further, that no such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender shall be entitled to any greater indemnification under Section 2.17 with respect to such Loan than that to which the applicable Lender was entitled on the date on which such Loan was made (except in connection with any indemnification entitlement arising as a result of any Change in Law after the date on which such Loan was made).

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Term SOFR Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum; provided that a Term SOFR Borrowing that results from a continuation of an outstanding Term SOFR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to such outstanding Borrowing. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 4 Term SOFR Borrowings outstanding.

Section 2.03 Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by delivery (by hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic transmission) of a written Borrowing Request signed by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (a) in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing (or one Business Day in the case of any Term SOFR Borrowing to be made, continued or deemed made on the Effective Date), or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable upon delivery and shall specify the following information:

(i) the aggregate amount and the currency of such Borrowing;

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing;

(iv) in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”;

(v) [reserved]; and

(vi) that, as of the date of such Borrowing, the conditions set forth in Section 4.01(l) and (m) are satisfied.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified as to any Borrowing, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Term SOFR Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of three (3) months’ duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

Section 2.04 [Reserved].

Section 2.05 [Reserved].

Section 2.06 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.01 in accordance with the terms hereof, the Term Loans shall be continued or deemed made hereunder upon the effectiveness of the Reorganization Plan.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance on such assumption and in its sole discretion (but without obligation), make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such share on demand of the Administrative Agent. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon demand of the Administrative Agent therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower agrees to pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower interest on such corresponding amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.13. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

(c) Obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.03(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 9.03(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 9.03(c).

Section 2.07 Interest Elections.

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03 and, in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by delivery (by hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic transmission) to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by the Borrower by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable upon delivery.

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the

information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

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

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing; and

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

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Term SOFR Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of three (3) months’ duration.

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

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

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender on the Term Maturity Date.

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

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

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein, provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay any amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the entries made pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section, the accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall control.

(e) Any Lender may request through the Administrative Agent that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender or its registered assigns and in a form provided by the Administrative Agent and approved by the Borrower.

Each prepayment pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on or before the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 with respect to the fiscal quarter ending on the last day of the applicable Excess Cash Flow Period for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated.

(c) Subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, concurrently with each borrowing under any Permitted ABL EMEA Credit Facility immediately following which the aggregate principal amount of loans then outstanding under such Permitted ABL EMEA Credit Facility exceeds the maximum aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under such Permitted ABL EMEA Credit Facility on any previous date, the Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to 33.33% of such excess. Each prepayment

The foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof. Such prepayments shall be applied to outstanding Term Loans.

(e) Subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, when the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary enters into a Permitted Sale/Leaseback, the Borrower will prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to 33.33% of the Net Proceeds of such Permitted Sale/Leaseback, such prepayments to be made promptly but in no event more than five (5) Business Days following receipt of such Net Proceeds, and until the date of payment, such proceeds shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent. The foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such Sale/Leaseback otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof. Such prepayments shall be applied to outstanding Term Loans.

(f) Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (g) of this Section substantially in the form of Exhibit P hereto (the “Notice of Prepayment”).

(g) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any optional prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(b), Section 2.11(c), Section 2.11(d) and Section 2.11(e) and, to the extent practicable, any mandatory prepayment hereunder by delivering a Notice of Prepayment to the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of prepayment of a Term SOFR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that a notice of optional prepayment may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or the occurrence of some other identifiable refinancing event or condition, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Borrower reasonably determines that the repatriation of any portion of any prepayment required pursuant to this Section 2.11 by a Foreign Subsidiary to effect such prepayment would (i) have a material adverse tax or cost consequence for the Loan Parties or their beneficial owners, (ii) contravene or be delayed by applicable Requirements of Law from being repatriated to the United States, (iii) give rise to a risk of liability for the directors of such Foreign Subsidiaries, or (iv) be prohibited by the organizational document restrictions of any non-controlled entities, the affected portion of such prepayment amount shall not be required to be applied to prepay the Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.11 (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to increase the amount of the prepayment required to be made to offset the application of such limitation and any reduction of such prepayment as a result thereof); provided, that, in the case of clauses (ii) through (iii), the Loan Parties and the applicable Foreign Subsidiary shall take commercially reasonable actions required by applicable Requirements of Law to permit such repatriation. Such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable restrictions or conditions in the preceding clauses (i) through (iv) are in effect, and once such repatriation of any of such affected amount is permitted under the applicable local law or such adverse consequence would no longer result, such repatriation will be effected promptly and such repatriated amounts will be promptly (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days after such repatriation) applied to the repayment of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.11 to the extent provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments required after application of the above provision shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes incurred by the Loan Parties and arising as a result of compliance with the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the non-application of any such prepayment amounts as a result of the foregoing provisions will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Loan Parties.

(j) For the avoidance of doubt, no prepayment premium shall be payable with respect to prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11(b), (c), (d) or (e).

(b) The Loans comprising each Term SOFR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Term SOFR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan, provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Term SOFR Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f) All computations of interest for ABR Loans (when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the U.S. “Prime Rate”) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.18, bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(g) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure thereunder, whenever any interest or any fee to be paid under any Loan Document is to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day or 365-day year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such calculation is equivalent is the rate so used multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 or 365, as applicable. The rates of interest under this Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective rates or yields. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement.

(h) If any provision of this Agreement would oblige a Canadian Loan Party to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by applicable laws or would result in a receipt by that Lender of “interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may

be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by that Lender of “interest” at a “criminal rate”, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows: (a) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest to be paid to such Lender; and (b) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to such Lender which would constitute “interest” for purposes of section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

Section 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) If at least two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term SOFR Borrowing:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period (in each case with respect to the Loans impacted by this clause (ii) or clause (i) above, “Impacted Loans”),

then the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic transmission as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term SOFR Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Term SOFR Borrowing, then such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing and the utilization of the Term SOFR Rate component in determining the Alternate Base Rate shall be suspended; provided, however, that, in each case, the Borrower may revoke any Borrowing Request that is pending when such notice is received.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) has made the determination described in clause (a)(i) of this Section 2.14 and/or is advised by the Required Lenders of their determination in accordance with clause (a)(ii) of this Section 2.14 and the Borrower shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend the definition of “Term SOFR Rate” and other applicable provisions to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change; provided that, until so amended, such Impacted Loans will be handled as otherwise provided pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.14.

(c) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) determines that a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred, the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), the Required Lenders and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the Term SOFR Rate with a Benchmark Replacement in accordance with this Section 2.14(c); and any such amendment shall be in writing, shall specify the date that the Benchmark Replacement is effective and will not require any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. Until the Benchmark Replacement is effective, each advance, conversion and renewal of a Term SOFR Loan will continue to bear interest with reference to the Term SOFR Rate; provided, however, during a Benchmark Unavailability Period (i) any pending selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Term SOFR Borrowing that has not yet gone into effect shall be deemed to be a selection of, conversion to or renewal of an ABR Borrowing, (ii)

all outstanding Term SOFR Loans shall automatically be converted to ABR Loans at the expiration of the existing Interest Period (or sooner, if Administrative Agent cannot continue to lawfully maintain such affected Term SOFR Loan) and (iii) the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the Term SOFR Rate will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate.

(d) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) and the Required Lenders will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the other Loan Documents, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Prior to implementing a Benchmark Replacement and/or any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and the Borrower shall use commercially reasonably efforts (exercised in good faith) to implement such Benchmark Replacement and/or any Benchmark Replacement Confirming Changes in a manner that is intended to comply with the terms of United States Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-6 (or any successor or similar Treasury Regulations) such that the Benchmark Replacement and/or Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes do not constitute a “significant modification” for purposes of United States Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-3 (including, but not limited to, using commercially reasonably efforts to implement a Benchmark Replacement that is a “qualified rate,” as defined in United States Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-6), as determined in good faith by the Borrower.

(e) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (f) below, and (v) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14 including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto (other than the Required Lenders), except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.

(f) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor of such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may

modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(g) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Borrowing bearing interest based on the Term SOFR Rate, conversion to or continuation of Borrowings bearing interest based on the Term SOFR Rate to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for an ABR Loan. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate.

(h) Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Section 2.14:

“Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Benchmark, as applicable (x) if the then current Benchmark is a term rate or is based on a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark that is or may be used for determining the length of an Interest Period or (y) otherwise, any payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Benchmark, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement as of such date.

“Benchmark” means, initially, the Term SOFR Rate; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the Term SOFR Rate or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to this Section. Any reference to “Benchmark” shall include, as applicable, the published component used in the calculation thereof.

“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date:

(1) the sum of: (a) Daily Simple SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

(2) the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest as a replacement to the Term SOFR Rate for U.S. dollar-denominated credit facilities and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; provided that, if the Benchmark Replacement as so determined would be less than 1.50%, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be 1.50% for the purposes of this Agreement.

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for each applicable Interest Period (where applicable):

(1) for purposes of clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the applicable amount(s) set forth below:


Available Tenor			Benchmark Replacement Adjustment*
One-Month			0.0% (0 basis points)
Three-Months			0.0% (0 basis points)
Six-Months			0.0% (0 basis points)

(2) for purposes of clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement”, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) (a) giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of the Term SOFR Rate with the applicable Benchmark Replacement (excluding such spread adjustment) by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for such replacement of the Term SOFR Rate for U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities at such time and (b) which may also reflect adjustments to account for (i) the effects of the transition from the Term SOFR Rate to the Benchmark Replacement and (ii) yield- or risk-based differences between the Term SOFR Rate and the Benchmark Replacement.

In each case, the Required Lenders shall direct the Administrative Agent in connection with selecting a Benchmark Replacement Adjustment that is administratively feasible to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make any such determination in the absence of such direction.

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Alternate Base Rate,” the definition of “Interest Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest and other administrative matters) that the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that no market practice for the administration of the Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement).

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earlier to occur of the following events with respect to the Term SOFR Rate:

(1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of the Term SOFR Rate permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide the Term SOFR Rate; or

(2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein.

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the Term SOFR Rate:

(1) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the Term SOFR Rate announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Term SOFR Rate, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Term SOFR Rate;

(2) a public statement or publication of information by a Governmental Body having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent, the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Term SOFR Rate, the U.S. Federal Reserve System, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Term SOFR Rate, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Term SOFR Rate or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for the Term SOFR Rate, which states that the administrator of the Term SOFR Rate has ceased or will cease to provide the Term SOFR Rate permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Term SOFR Rate; or

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Term SOFR Rate or a Governmental Body having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent announcing that the Term SOFR Rate is no longer representative.

“Benchmark Unavailability Period” means, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the Term SOFR Rate and solely to the extent that the Term SOFR Rate has not been replaced with a Benchmark Replacement, the period (x) beginning at the time that such Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced the Term SOFR Rate for all purposes hereunder in accordance with Section 2.14 and (y) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the Term SOFR Rate for all purposes hereunder pursuant to Section 2.14.

“Daily Simple SOFR” means, for any day (a “SOFR Rate Day”), the interest rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent by dividing (the resulting quotient rounded upwards, to the nearest 1/100th of 1%) (A) SOFR for the day (the “SOFR Determination Date”) that is five (5) Business Days prior to (i) such SOFR Rate Day if such SOFR Rate Day is a Business Day or (ii) the Business Day immediately preceding such SOFR Rate Day if such SOFR Rate Day is not a Business Day, by (B) a number equal to 1.00 minus the SOFR Reserve Percentage. If Daily Simple SOFR as determined above would be less than the SOFR Floor, then Daily Simple SOFR shall be deemed to be the SOFR Floor. If SOFR for any SOFR Determination Date has not been published or replaced with a Benchmark Replacement by 5:00 p.m. (New York, New York time) on the second Business Day immediately following such SOFR Determination Date, then SOFR for such SOFR Determination Date will be SOFR for the first Business Day preceding such SOFR Determination Date for which SOFR was published in accordance with the definition of “SOFR”; provided that SOFR determined pursuant to this sentence shall be used for purposes of calculating Daily Simple SOFR for no more than three (3) consecutive SOFR Rate Days. If and when Daily Simple SOFR as determined above changes,

any applicable rate of interest based on Daily Simple SOFR will change automatically without notice to the Borrower, effective on the date of any such change.

“Relevant Governmental Body” means the Federal Reserve Board and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Federal Reserve Board and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or any successor thereto.

Section 2.15 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Term SOFR Rate); or

(ii) subject any recipient of any payment to be made by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than with respect to Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent or such Lender of making or maintaining any Term SOFR Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, from time to time upon request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, for such increased costs actually incurred or reduction actually suffered, provided that the Borrower shall not be liable for such compensation if, in the case of requests for reimbursement under clause (ii) above resulting from a market disruption, (A) the relevant circumstances are not generally affecting the banking market or (B) the applicable request has not been made by Lenders constituting Required Lenders; provided, further, that to the extent any such costs or reductions are incurred by any Lender as a result of any requests, rules, guidelines or directives enacted or promulgated under the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and Basel III, then such Lender shall be compensated pursuant to this (a) only to the extent such Lender is imposing such charges on similarly situated borrowers where the terms of other syndicated credit facilities permit it to impose such charges.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such

▇▇▇▇▇▇’s policies and the policies of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then, from time to time upon request of such Lender contemplated by clause (c) below, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s holding company for any such reduction actually suffered.

(c) Any Lender requesting compensation under this Section 2.14(a) shall be required to deliver a certificate to the Borrower, (i) setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company in reasonable detail, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, (ii) setting forth, in reasonable detail, the manner in which such amount or amounts were determined and (iii) certifies that such Lender is generally charging such amounts to similarly situated borrowers, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Term SOFR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Term SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(g) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Term SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19 or Section 9.02(c), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by any Lender affected by any such event (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), compensate each Lender for the actual loss, cost and expense incurred by such Lender attributable to such event (other than loss of profit). For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 2.16, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Term SOFR Loan made by it at the Term SOFR Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Term SOFR Loan was in fact so funded. Any Lender requesting compensation under this Section 2.16 shall be required to deliver a certificate to the Borrower setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section, the basis therefor and, in reasonable detail and the manner in which such amount or amounts were determined, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt of such demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.16 will not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 2.17 shall govern.

Section 2.17 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or

withholding for any Taxes, provided that if the applicable Withholding Agent shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Withholding Agent) to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such payments, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iii) if the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions or withholdings have been made (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.17) the Lender (or, in the case of a payment received by the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made.

(b) Without duplication of any obligation under paragraph (a) above, the Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirements of Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and/or Other Taxes payable or paid by, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law and such other documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (i) as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding or (ii) as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(e)(1)-(3) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Each Lender shall, if a lapse or time or change in circumstances renders such documentation obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent upon their reasonable request updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Each Lender hereby

authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.17.

Without limiting the foregoing:

(1) Each Lender and Administrative Agent that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or about the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) two properly completed and duly signed copies of IRS Form W-9 or successor form certifying that such Lender or Administrative Agent is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

(2) Each Lender that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or about the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) two properly completed and duly signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms), as applicable, claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax (i) pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document and (ii) pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document,

(B) two properly completed and duly signed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

(C) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) two properly completed and duly signed certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit Q-1, Q-2, Q-3 and Q-4, as applicable, (any such certificate, a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two properly completed and duly signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms), as applicable,

(D) to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), two properly completed and duly signed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Lender, accompanied by an IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, IRS Form W-8IMY or any other information (or any successor forms) from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 2.17(e) if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if the Lender is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Lender on behalf of such direct or indirect partner(s)), or

(E) two properly completed and duly signed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable U.S. federal income tax laws as a basis for claiming a complete exemption from, or a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax on any payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(3) If a payment made to a Lender or Administrative Agent under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or Administrative Agent were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender or Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender or Administrative Agent has or has not complied with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s or Administrative Agent’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (3), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof.

(4) If the Administrative Agent is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, it shall provide to the Borrower on or prior to the date on which it becomes an Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower): (A) two executed copies of Form W-8ECI with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account, and (B) two executed copies of Form W-8IMY with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of others, certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business within the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments (and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a “United States person” with respect to such payments as contemplated by Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the United States Treasury Regulations).

Each Lender or Administrative Agent agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this paragraph (e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form or other documentation that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(f) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without

interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees promptly to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.17(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. The Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, at the Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing authority (provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may delete any information therein that the Administrative Agent or such Lender deems confidential). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.17(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.17(f) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes which it deems confidential to any Loan Party or any other Person).

(g) Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 2.18 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under any Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14(a), Section 2.16, Section 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account as may be specified by the Administrative Agent, shall be made as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14(a), Section 2.16, Section 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment (other than payments on the Term SOFR Loans) under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Term SOFR Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate for the period of such extension. All payments or prepayments of any Loan (or of interest thereon) and all other payments under each Loan Document shall be made in Dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, any fees that are due hereunder to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, (ii) second, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (iii) third, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender with outstanding Loans, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders at such time outstanding to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders of such class ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for any permitted assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, including any payment made or deemed made in connection with Section 9.02 or (C) any disproportionate payment obtained by a Lender as a result of the extension by Lenders of the maturity date or expiration date of some but not all Loans or Commitments or any increase in the Applicable Rate in respect of Loans of Lenders that have consented to any such extension. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

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

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.06(a), Section 2.06(b), Section 2.18(d) or Section 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and in the order determined by the Administrative Agent (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and to be applied to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section.

Section 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14(a), or if any Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or any event that gives rise to the operation of Section 2.23, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder affected by such event, or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14(a) or Section 2.17 or mitigate the applicability of Section 2.23, as the case may be and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not be inconsistent with the internal policies of, or otherwise be disadvantageous in any economic, legal or regulatory respect to, such Lender.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14(a) or gives notice under Section 2.23 or (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate (and such Lender shall be obligated to assign and delegate), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.15 or Section 2.17) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation), provided that (A) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which consents, in each case, shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued but unpaid interest thereon, accrued but unpaid fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (C) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid (unless waived) to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b)(ii) and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14(a), payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17 or a notice given under Section 2.23, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph (a) above), the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section 2.20 [Reserved].

Section 2.21 [Reserved].

Section 2.22 [Reserved].

Section 2.23 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Term SOFR Rate or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Term SOFR Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender

to make or continue Term SOFR Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended until such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon three Business Days’ notice from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Term SOFR Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans, and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Term SOFR Rate, the Administrative Agent shall, during the period of such suspension, compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Term SOFR Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Term SOFR Rate. Each ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing promptly upon becoming aware that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Term SOFR Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations in clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01 may be satisfied with respect to financial information of Holdings and its Subsidiaries by furnishing the Form 10-K or 10-Q (or the equivalent), as applicable, of Holdings filed with the SEC to the extent such filing includes the information required by such clauses.

Documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the earlier of the date (A) on which Holdings posts such documents, or provides a link thereto, on Holdings’ or one of its Affiliates’ website on the Internet or (B) on which such documents are posted on Holdings’ behalf on IntraLinks/IntraAgency or another website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent); provided that: (i) Holdings shall deliver such documents to the Administrative Agent upon its reasonable request until a written notice to cease delivering such documents is given by the Administrative Agent and (ii) Holdings shall notify the Administrative Agent (by telecopier or electronic mail) of the posting of any such documents and upon its reasonable request, provide to the Administrative Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents.

Holdings hereby agrees that it will, upon the Administrative Agent’s reasonable request, identify that portion of the Company Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (i) all such Company Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (ii) by marking Company Materials “PUBLIC,” Holdings shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Company Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be

In no event shall the Agent or any agent or affiliate thereof (collectively, the “Agent Related Person”) have any liability to Holdings or the other Loan Parties, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Holdings’, any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the Platform. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section and Section 9.01, including through the Platform.

Section 5.05 Payment of Taxes, Etc. Each of Holdings and the Borrower will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, pay its obligations in respect of Taxes before the same shall become delinquent or in default, except (a) where the failure to make payment could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (b) that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings for which adequate reserves have been made in accordance with GAAP.

Each of Holdings and the Borrower will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, maintain proper books of record and account in which entries that are full, true and correct in all material respects and are in conformity with GAAP (or applicable local standards) consistently applied shall be made of all material financial transactions and matters involving the assets and business of the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be. The Borrower will, and will cause the Restricted Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, upon reasonable prior notice, to visit and inspect its properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and to discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested; provided that, excluding any such visits and inspections during the continuation of an Event of Default, only the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders (provided that a representative of the Lenders may accompany the Administrative Agent) may exercise visitation and inspection rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section 5.08 and the Administrative Agent shall not exercise such rights more often than one time during any calendar year absent the existence of an Event of Default, which visitation and inspection shall be at the reasonable expense of the Borrower; provided, further that (a) when an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective representatives or independent contractors) may do any of the foregoing at the expense of the Borrower at any time during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice and (b) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall give the Borrower the opportunity to participate in any discussions with the Borrower’s independent public accountants.

Each of Holdings and the Borrower will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, comply with its Organizational Documents and all Requirements of Law (including Environmental Laws, ERISA, FCPA, Sanctions, the USA Patriot Act, the PCMLTF Act and other anti-terrorism and anti-corruption laws) applicable to it or its property, except where the failure to do so (other than compliance with FCPA, Sanctions, the USA Patriot Act and other anti-terrorism and anti-corruption laws), individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. This Section 5.09 shall not be interpreted or applied in respect of any German Loan Party to the extent that any such undertaking would violate or expose such entity or any directors, officer or employee thereof to any liability, under section 7 of the German Foreign Trade Ordinance (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung), any provision of Council Regulation (EC) 2271/1996, as amended, or any similar applicable antiboycott or blocking law or regulation binding on the relevant German Loan Party.

Section 5.10 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Term Loans made, continued or deemed made on the Effective Date to refinance the Term Loan Claims and a portion of the DIP Term Loan Claims in accordance with the Reorganization Plan. Holdings, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of the Loans, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person, for the purpose of funding (i) any activities of or business with any Person who is the subject of Sanctions, or in any country or territory to the extent that such country or territory is the subject of Sanctions, or (ii) any other transaction that

will result in a violation by any Person (including any Person participating in the transaction, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor, lender or otherwise) of Sanctions. Holdings, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries will not use the proceeds of the Loans directly, or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, indirectly in any manner that would violate the FCPA or other applicable anti-corruptions laws or regulations, or the USA Patriot Act or other applicable anti-terrorism laws or regulations. Any amounts used to repay the Term Loans shall not be derived from transactions that violate Sanctions. This Section 5.10 shall not be interpreted or applied in respect of any German Loan Party to the extent that any such undertaking would violate or expose such entity or any directors, officer or employee thereof to any liability, under section 7 of the German Foreign Trade Ordinance (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung), any provision of Council Regulation (EC) 2271/1996, as amended, or any similar applicable antiboycott or blocking law or regulation binding on the relevant German Loan Party. The Borrower shall ensure that no proceeds borrowed under this Agreement will be used in a manner which constitutes a “use of proceeds in Switzerland” as interpreted by Swiss tax authorities when assessing whether or not interest payable with respect to such borrowing is subject to Swiss withholding tax, except and to the extent that a written confirmation or tax ruling countersigned by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration (Eidgenössische Steuerverwaltung) has been obtained (in a form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders)) confirming that the intended “use of proceeds in Switzerland” does not result in any Loans qualifying as a Swiss financing for Swiss withholding tax purposes and that, accordingly, no Swiss withholding tax is or becomes payable on the interest payments made under this Agreement.

Section 5.11 Additional Subsidiaries. If any additional Restricted Subsidiary is formed or acquired after the Effective Date, the Borrower will, within 60 days (or such longer period contemplated by the Agreed Security Principles or as the Administrative Agent acting at the direction of the Required Lenders shall reasonably agree) after such newly formed or acquired Restricted Subsidiary is formed or acquired (unless such Subsidiary is an Excluded Subsidiary), notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and shall take all actions (if any) required to be taken with respect to such newly formed or acquired Subsidiary in order to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement with respect to such Subsidiary, the assets of such Subsidiary and with respect to any Equity Interest in or Indebtedness of such Subsidiary owned by or on behalf of any Loan Party within 60 days after such formation or acquisition (or such longer period contemplated by the Agreed Security Principles or as the Administrative Agent, acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, shall reasonably agree).

Section 5.12 Further Assurances.

(a) Each of Holdings and the Borrower will, and will, subject in the case of the Foreign Loan Parties to the Agreed Security Principles, cause each Loan Party to, execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents), that may be required under any applicable law and that the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request, to cause the applicable Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be and remain satisfied at all times, all at the expense of the Loan Parties and subject to the Legal Reservations and Foreign Perfection Requirements (if applicable).

ARTICLE VIII
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND COLLATERAL AGENT

Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Cantor ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities to serve as Administrative Agent and GLAS Trust Company LLC to serve as Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents, and authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent to execute, deliver and administer the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to take such actions and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, and none of Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred or is continuing. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders and each other Secured Party hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as the agent (i) for itself and for and on behalf of the other Secured Parties as direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) as far as Swiss law governed security interests are concerned which are accessory in nature (akzessorisch) and (ii) for the benefit of the other Secured Parties (Halten unter einem Treuhandverhältnis) as far as Swiss law governed security interests are concerned that are non-accessory in nature (nicht akzessorisch) and (ii) for itself and for and on behalf of the other Secured Parties as far as Luxembourg law governed security interests are concerned, with all rights under Article 2(4) of the Luxembourg law of 5 August 2005 on financial collateral arrangements as amended from time to time) for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto.

The Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender, if applicable, as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary power, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as

124

provided in the Loan Documents); provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, may expose any Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, or for which the Agents are not indemnified to their satisfaction, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment). No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by Holdings, the Borrower or a Lender, such notice referring to this Agreement and describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the existence, value, sufficiency or collectability of any Collateral or creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document or (vii) whether any Loan Party has complied with its obligations under the Loan Documents, including in respect of documents, notices and certificates that are required to be delivered to the Agents or as to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Agents. No Agent shall be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Parties for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral or for the perfection of any Lien on the Collateral. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that no Agent shall have any obligation to file financing statements, amendments to financing statements, or continuation statements, or to perfect or maintain the perfection of any Agent’s Lien on the Collateral. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Agent shall have any liability arising from any confirmation or determination of the terms and conditions of any Intercreditor Agreement.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person (including, if applicable, a Responsible Officer or Financial Officer of such Person). Each Agent also may rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person (including, if applicable, a Financial Officer or a Responsible Officer of such Person), and may act upon any such statement prior to receipt of written confirmation thereof. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

125

In no event shall any Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of their obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, future changes in applicable law or regulation, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that such Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

The Agents may perform any of and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. The Agents and any such sub-agent may perform any of and all their duties and exercise their rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agents and any such sub-agent. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that such Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice, concurrence, instruction or direction of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as it deems appropriate, or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense (except those incurred solely as a result of such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as may be required, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. Such advice, concurrence, instruction or direction, may, in such Agent’s sole discretion, be delivered by e-mail from the Required Lenders or their counsel, who, as of the date hereof is ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may resign upon 10 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the Borrower’s consent (unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, which shall be a commercial bank or trust company or such other Person that regularly acts as agent for similar types of credit arrangements with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications above (the date upon which the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent is replaced, the “Resignation Effective Date”).

With effect from the Resignation Effective Date (1) the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except (i) that in the case of any collateral security held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative

126

Agent or Collateral Agent is appointed and (ii) with respect to any outstanding payment obligations) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders or the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date), and the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as set forth in this Section. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent was acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent and in respect of the matters referred to under clause (1) above.

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

Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and funding its Loans on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date.

Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights of any Lender in accordance with Section 9.08 or with respect to a Lender’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Secured Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of the applicable Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the applicable Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled (but not obligated), for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public

127

sale, to use and apply any of the Loan Document Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the applicable Secured Parties at such sale or other disposition. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article, Section 9.15 and Section 9.17.

The Lenders and each other holder of a Loan Document Obligation under a Loan Document shall act collectively through the Administrative Agent with respect to the exercise of rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent, acting at the direction of Required Lenders, shall direct the course of action with respect to the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and under other Loan Documents (including with respect to alleging the existence or occurrence of, and exercising rights and remedies as a result of, any Default or Event of Default), and the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to (i) the Term Loans, (ii) any Collateral, and (iii) any other property of any Loan Party or any past, present, or future Related Party of any Loan Party. Any such rights and remedies shall not be exercised other than through the Administrative Agent. Each Lender agrees that it shall not, and hereby waives any right to, take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, in each case with respect to the exercise of rights and remedies under the Loan Documents against any Loan Party or any past, present, or future Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Loan Party concerning this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Term Loans, any Collateral, or any other property of any Loan Party or any past, present, or future Related Party of any Loan Party other than through the Administrative Agent.

Each of the Lenders and other Secured Parties irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to, and the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall, subject to receipt of a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (it being understood that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may rely, without independent investigation, on any such certificate), (a) release and terminate, or to confirm or evidence any automatic release and termination of, any Guarantees and ▇▇▇▇▇ created under the Loan Documents as provided in Section 9.15 or in any other Security Document and (b) subordinate, at the request of the Borrower, any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Security Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(iv).

In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any federal, state, provincial, territorial or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Section 2.12, Section 2.13, Section 2.14(a), Section 2.16, Section 2.17 and Section 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

128

and any custodian, receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager, manager, monitor, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders or the other Secured Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.03).

To the extent required by any applicable Requirements of Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.17, each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding tax ineffective, or because such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register), but in each case only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such amounts and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this paragraph. The agreements in this paragraph shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under any Loan Document.

Each Lender and other Secured Party hereby appoints the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent to act as its agent (i) for itself and for and on behalf of the other Secured Parties as direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) as far as Swiss law governed security interests are concerned which are accessory in nature (akzessorisch) and (ii) for the benefit of the other Secured Parties (Halten unter einem Treuhandverhältnis) as far as Swiss law governed security interests are concerned that are non-accessory in nature (nicht akzessorisch) under and in connection with the relevant Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreements and instructs the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, as applicable, to enter into the ABL North America Intercreditor Agreement, any Permitted ABL EMEA Intercreditor Agreement and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and agrees that (i) the Secured Obligations are subject to, and bound by, the provisions of the ABL North America Intercreditor Agreement, any Permitted ABL EMEA Intercreditor Agreement and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) each Secured Party will be subject to, and bound by, the provisions of the ABL North America Intercreditor Agreement, any Permitted ABL EMEA Intercreditor Agreement and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, in each case in its capacity as holder of Secured Obligations.

All provisions of this Article VIII applicable to the Administrative Agent shall apply to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to all the benefits and indemnities applicable to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. The provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03 hereof and Section 5.03 of the U.S. Collateral Agreement, applicable to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, shall apply to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent when acting in any capacity under any other Loan Document, whether or not

129

such provision is set forth in such other Loan Document. Without limiting the scope of the immediately preceding sentence, all rights, privileges, immunities and indemnities of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent set forth in this Article VIII and Section 9.03 and Section 5.03 of the U.S. Collateral Agreement shall apply to GLAS Trust Company LLC, as security trustee, security agent, collateral agent, administrator, agent, representative, pledgee, chargee and/or similar concept under the Foreign Loan Documents, and for the avoidance of doubt, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities and GLAS Trust Company LLC shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, and shall be entitled to all benefits and indemnities applicable to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as if such benefits and indemnities were set forth in such Foreign Loan Document.

Each Secured Party hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter into the Foreign Loan Documents, and acknowledges and agrees that in connection therewith the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may amend this Agreement (and the Borrower hereby agrees to amend this Agreement) without the consent of any other Lender or any other Person to, to include provisions appointing the Collateral Agent as security trustee or other concept under applicable foreign law, to hold the security under the Foreign Loan Documents and to provide the Collateral Agent with the maximum protections under applicable foreign law (including, without limitation, to provide for releases of liability for the Collateral Agent and to disclaim any fiduciary or other obligations or duties of, or restrictions on, the Collateral Agent under applicable law and to provide for indemnification and exculpation of the Collateral Agent) and otherwise to implement the Foreign Loan Documents. Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that it shall be bound by such provisions, as if fully set forth in Article VIII of this Agreement. To the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America, each of the Lenders hereby grants to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent any required powers of attorney to execute and perform under any Foreign Loan Documents on its behalf.

The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or Canadian Insolvency Laws, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 36 of the CCAA, Section 65.13 of the BIA, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Secured Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Secured Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Secured Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any

130

disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Secured Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Secured Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Secured Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Secured Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Secured Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Secured Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Secured Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Secured Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid. Notwithstanding the grant of authority to the Administrative Agent in this paragraph, nothing herein shall impose an obligation on the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to credit bid any of the Loan Document Obligations, it being expressly understood and agreed by the Lenders and the other Secured Parties that the Administrative Agent may appoint a third-party to perform such functions, and such third-party shall be entitled to all of the protections granted to an Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

For the purposes of the grant of security under the laws of the Province of Québec which may now or in the future be required to be provided by any Loan Party, the Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and appointed by each of the Lenders hereto to act as hypothecary representative (within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec) for all present and future Lenders (in such capacity, the “Hypothecary Representative”) in order to hold any hypothec granted under the laws of the Province of Quebec and to exercise such rights and duties as are conferred upon the Hypothecary Representative under the relevant deed of hypothec and applicable Laws (with the power to delegate any such rights or duties). The execution prior to the date hereof by the Collateral Agent in its capacity as the Hypothecary Representative of any deed of hypothec or other security documents made pursuant to the laws of the Province of Québec, is hereby ratified and confirmed. Any Person who becomes a Lender or successor Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have consented to and ratified the foregoing appointment of the Collateral Agent as the Hypothecary Representative on behalf of all Lenders, including such Person and any Affiliate of such Person designated above as a Lender. For greater certainty, the Collateral Agent, acting as the Hypothecary Representative, shall have the same rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and exclusions from liability as are prescribed in favor of the Collateral Agent in this Agreement, which shall apply mutatis mutandis. In the event of the resignation of the Collateral Agent (which shall include its resignation as the Hypothecary Representative) and appointment of a successor Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall also act as the Hypothecary Representative, as contemplated above.

131

Despite any other provision of this Agreement, if an administrator is appointed to an Australian Loan Party under Part 5.3A of the Australian Corporations Act and the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent (as applicable) has not received instructions under this Article VIII in time to enable it to appoint an Australian Controller under the relevant Australian Collateral Documents within the decision period (as defined in the Australian Corporations Act) then despite any other provision of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent must, if it is entitled to do, appoint an Australian Controller within that decision period.

Section 9.02 Waivers; Amendments.

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

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (to the extent that such waiver, amendment or modification does not affect the rights, duties, privileges or obligations of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall execute such waiver, amendment or other modification to the extent approved by the Required Lenders) and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, if applicable, and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties

133

thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders, provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (but not the consent of the Required Lenders) (it being understood that the waiver of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender), (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan (it being understood that a waiver of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute a reduction in principal) or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (but not the consent of the Required Lenders) (it being understood that any change to the definition of any ratio used in the calculation of the interest rate or fees therein or in the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction of interest or fees), provided that the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay default interest pursuant to Section 2.13(d), (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan (it being understood that a waiver of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute a postponement of any maturity date), or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (but not the consent of the Required Lenders), (iv) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any right thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) release all or substantially all the value of the Guarantees under the Domestic Guarantee Agreement or the Foreign Guarantee Agreement (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) release all or substantially all the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents, without the written consent of each Lender (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents) or (vii) (1) waive, amend or modify Section 2.18, Section 7.03 or any other provision hereof in a manner that would have the effect of altering the ratable reduction of Commitments or the pro rata sharing of payments otherwise required hereunder, (2) subordinate, or have the effect of subordinating, the Secured Obligations hereunder to any other Indebtedness or other obligation, except in the case of (w) any Indebtedness under a Permitted ABL EMEA Credit Facility in accordance with a Permitted ABL EMEA Intercreditor Agreement, (x) any Indebtedness under the ABL North America Credit Agreement in accordance with the ABL North America Intercreditor Agreement, (y) any “debtor in-possession” facility (or similar facility under applicable law) or (z) any Indebtedness with respect to which such Lender has been provided with a bona fide opportunity to participate in such Indebtedness, (3) subordinate, or have the effect of subordinating, the Liens securing the Secured Obligations with respect to all or substantially all of the Collateral to Liens securing any other Indebtedness or other obligation, except in the case of (x) any Indebtedness under a Permitted ABL EMEA Credit Facility in accordance with a Permitted ABL EMEA Intercreditor Agreement, (x) any Indebtedness under the ABL North America Credit Agreement in accordance with the ABL North America Intercreditor Agreement (y) any “debtor in-possession” facility (or similar facility under applicable law) or (z) any Indebtedness with respect to which such Lender has been provided with a bona fide opportunity to participate in such Indebtedness, (4) release, or have the effect of releasing, all or substantially all of the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations, or (5) release, or have the effect of releasing, all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (except as provided in this Section 9.02); provided further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and (B) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon notice thereof by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the inclusion of any previously absent financial maintenance covenant, this Agreement shall be

134

amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender to include such covenant on the date of the incurrence of the applicable Indebtedness to the extent required by the terms of such definition or section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and to the extent such credit facilities are pari passu in right of payment and security with any then existing Loans, to share ratably in prepayments with such Loans) and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Lenders prior to such inclusion and (b) this Agreement and other Loan Documents may be amended or supplemented by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower or any Loan Party as to which such agreement or agreements is to apply, without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender, to include “parallel debt” or similar provisions, and any authorizations or granting of powers by the Lenders and the other Secured Parties in favor of the Administrative Agent, in each case required to create in favor of the Administrative Agent any security interest contemplated to be created under this Agreement, or to perfect any such security interest, where the Required Lenders have determined that such provisions are necessary or advisable under local law for such purpose (with the Borrower hereby agreeing to, and to cause its subsidiaries to, enter into any such agreement or agreements upon reasonable request of the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of Required Lenders) promptly upon such request).

(c) In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all directly and adversely affected Lenders, if the consent of the Required Lenders to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in paragraph (b) of this Section being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, (x) terminate the applicable Commitments of such Lender, and repay all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender relating to the applicable Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date or (y) require such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that (a) in the case of clause (y) above, the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (b) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees, any redemption premium, any prepayment premium and all other amounts (including any amounts under Section 2.11(a)(i)), payable to it hereunder from the Borrower or Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (c) in the case of clause (y) above, unless waived, the Borrower or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b).

Section 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented or invoiced fees and out of pocket expenses incurred by the Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and their Affiliates (without duplication), including the reasonable fees, charges and

135

disbursements of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, and, to the extent reasonably determined by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to be necessary one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction or otherwise retained with the Borrower’s consent, in each case for the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery or administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof and (ii) all reasonable and documented or invoiced fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder (including, but not limited to, all out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with creating and maintaining the Platform and providing accounting for the Lenders), including all such fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans; provided that such counsel shall be limited to one counsel for the Administrative Agent, one counsel for the Collateral Agent, and one counsel for the Lenders taken as a whole, and, if necessary, one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and one foreign counsel for the Administrative Agent, one separate counsel for the Collateral Agent and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and one foreign counsel for the Lenders taken as a whole.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented or invoiced fees and out-of-pocket expenses of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties taken as a whole, one counsel to the Collateral Agent and its Related Parties taken as a whole and one counsel to the Lenders and their Related Parties taken as a whole, if reasonably necessary, and one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole) for all affected Indemnitees, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the preparation, execution, delivery or administration of the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument contemplated thereby or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) to the extent in any way arising from or relating to any of the foregoing, any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on, at or from any Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or formerly owned or operated by Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, or any other Environmental Liability, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any Subsidiary and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final, non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or, other than the Agents and their Related Parties, bad faith or (ii) have resulted from any dispute solely between and among Indemnitees that does not involve an act or omission by Holdings, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries (other than with respect to a claim against an Indemnitee acting in its capacity as an Agent or similar role under the Loan Documents, except to the extent that any of the exceptions set forth in clause (i) applies to such Indemnitee with respect to such claim at such time); provided that this Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

136

(c) To the extent that Holdings or the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to any Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and without limiting Holdings’ or the Borrower’s obligation to do so, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent (or such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent (or such sub-agent), in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for such Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the aggregate outstanding Loans at the time.

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither Holdings nor the Borrower shall assert, or permit any of their Affiliates or Related Parties to assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such damages are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final, non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties, or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 30 days (x) after written demand therefor, in the case of any indemnification obligations and (y) in the case of reimbursement of costs and expenses, after receipt by the Borrower of an invoice setting forth such costs and expenses in reasonable detail, together with backup documentation supporting the relevant reimbursement request; provided, however, that any Indemnitee shall promptly refund or return an indemnification payment received hereunder to the extent that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such payment pursuant to this Section 9.03.

(f) All amounts reimbursable by Holdings and the Borrower under this Section 9.03 shall constitute Loan Document Obligations secured by the Collateral. Each party’s obligations under this Section 9.03 shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the obligations hereunder or the earlier resignation or removal of any Agent.

Section 9.04 Successors and Assigns.

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

137

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (ii) and paragraph (g) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments outstanding at such time and/or Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of (A) the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment (1) by a Lender to any Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender, (2) by a Lender to an Approved Fund or (3) if an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing, by a Lender to any other assignee; and provided further that the Borrower shall have the right to withhold its consent to any assignment if, in order for such assignment to comply with applicable law, the Borrower would be required to obtain the consent of, or make any filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority, and (B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or an Approved Fund. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.04 to the contrary, if any Person the consent of which is required by this paragraph with respect to any assignment of Loans has not given the Administrative Agent written notice of its objection to such assignment within 10 Business Days after written notice to such Person, such Person shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the trade date specified in the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment or, if no trade date is so specified, as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 (and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof), unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together (unless waived by the Administrative Agent) with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that assignments made pursuant to Section 2.19 or Section 9.02(c) shall not require the signature of the assigning Lender to become effective, and (C) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any tax documentation required by Section 2.17(e) and an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower, the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (v) of this paragraph (b), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of (subject to the obligations

138

and limitations of) Sections 2.14(a), Section 2.16, Section 2.17 and 9.03 and to any fees payable hereunder that have accrued for such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s account but have not yet been paid). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.04(c)(i).

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal and stated interest amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and, solely with respect to its Loans or Commitments, any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The parties intend that Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related Treasury regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or of such Treasury regulations).

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and the documentation required by Section 2.17(e) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this paragraph (b) and any written consent to such assignment required by this paragraph (b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (b).

(vi) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

(vii) With respect to the Luxembourg Collateral Documents, each Guarantor hereby expressly accepts and confirms, for the purpose of article 1278 et seq. of the Luxembourg Civil Code, that notwithstanding any assignment, transfer and/or novation permitted under, and made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, any Security Documents and all guarantees created under the Loan Documents shall be preserved for the benefit of any Eligible Assignee.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other Persons (other than to a

139

Person that is not an Eligible Assignee) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and Loans); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that directly and adversely affects such Participant. Subject to clause (ii) below, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14(a), Section 2.16 and Section 2.17 (subject to the obligations and limitations therein including the requirements under Section 2.17(e), it being understood that the documentation required by Section 2.17(e) shall be provided to the Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant shall be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) No Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14(a), Section 2.16 or Section 2.17 than the participating Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) expressly acknowledging that such Participant’s entitlement to benefits under Section 2.14(a), Section 2.16 or Section 2.17 is not limited to what the participating Lender would have been entitled to receive absent the participation.

(iii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal and stated interest amounts of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof shall be treated as a Participant for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest, provided that no

140

such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) [reserved].

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, such party will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV.

(g) [reserved].

(h) (i) In the event of any assignment or participation by a Lender without the Borrower’s consent or deemed consent (if applicable) (A) [reserved] or (B) to the extent the Borrower’s consent is required under this Section 9.04, to any other Person, the Borrower shall be entitled to seek specific performance to unwind any such assignment or participation in addition to injunctive relief (without posting a bond or presenting evidence of irreparable harm) or any other remedies available to the Borrower at law or in equity in respect of such assignor or assignee; it being understood and agreed that Holdings, the Borrower and their subsidiaries will suffer irreparable harm if any Lender breaches any obligation under this Section 9.04 as it relates to any assignment, participation or pledge of any Loan or Commitment to any Person to whom the Borrower’s consent is required but not obtained (or has not been deemed consented to).

(ii) [reserved].

(iii) Upon the cancellation or retirement of any Loans pursuant to this Section 9.04, (A) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so retired or cancelled and (B) the Administrative Agent shall record such cancellation or retirement in the Register.

141

(i) Any Lender may, if it considers it necessary to make the present transfer effective as against a Loan Party incorporated or resident for tax purposes under the laws of France (a "French Obligor"), arrange for such transfer to be notified to that French Obligor or acknowledged by that French Obligor in accordance with article 1216 of the French Civil Code. Each Party agrees that in case of an assignment or transfer pursuant to this Section 9.04(i), the French Collateral granted under the French Collateral Documents and the guarantees granted by any French Obligor under the relevant Foreign Guarantee Agreement shall be preserved for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the new Lender and the other Secured Parties (as applicable). In addition, for the purpose of the provisions of paragraph 2 of article 1334 of the French Civil Code and any similar provisions under any other applicable law, each party agrees that following a transfer by way of novation under this Agreement, any French Collateral granted under the French Collateral Documents and the obligations of any French Obligor under the Foreign Guarantee Agreement will be reserved and will continue in full force for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the new Lender and the other Secured Parties. A transfer by way of novation under this Section 9.04(i) shall be deemed to be also a novation (novation) within the meaning of articles 1329 et seq. of the French Civil Code.

Section 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to any Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14(a), Section 2.16, Section 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitment, the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof, and in the case of Article VIII and Section 9.03, the resignation or removal of any Agent.

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

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

142

Section 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) (other than escrow, payroll, employee health and benefits, pension, fiduciary, 401(K), ▇▇▇▇▇ cash, trust and tax accounts) or other amounts at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, to or for the credit or the account of Holdings or the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of Holdings or the Borrower then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The applicable Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have.

Section 9.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

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

Section 9.12 Confidentiality.

(a) Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, servicers, financing sources, trustees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other agents and advisors (collectively, the “Representatives”) on a “need to know” basis solely in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential and any failure of such Persons to comply with this Section 9.12 shall constitute a breach of this Section 9.12 by the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as applicable); provided that, unless the Borrower otherwise consents, no such disclosure shall be made by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate or Representative thereof to any Affiliate or Representative of the Administrative Agent, (b) (x) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority (including the NAIC), required by applicable law or by any subpoena or similar legal process or (y) necessary in connection with the exercise of remedies; provided that, (i) in each case, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of such Lender by such governmental agency or other routine examinations of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information and (ii) in the case of clause (y) only, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that such Information is kept confidential in connection with the exercise of such remedies, and provided, further, that in no event shall any Lender or the Administrative Agent be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, (c) to any other party to this Agreement, (d) subject to an acknowledgment and acceptance by the relevant recipient that such Information is being disseminated on a confidential basis (on substantially similar terms to those of this Section or as otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), to any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or prospective Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (e) with the consent of the Borrower, in the case of Information provided by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary, (f) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Holdings or the Borrower or (g) subject to the Borrower’s prior approval of the information to be disclosed (not to be unreasonably withheld), to ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ or S&P on a confidential basis in connection with obtaining or maintaining ratings. In addition, the Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and publicly available information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments and the Borrowings hereunder. For the

144

purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Holdings or the Borrower relating to Holdings, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdings or the Borrower. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

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

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

Section 9.13 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender and the Agents (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of Title III of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or such Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Title III of the USA Patriot Act.

Section 9.14 Judgment Currency.

(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of any obligation owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance

145

with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the resignation or removal of any Agent and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

Section 9.15 Release of Liens and Guarantees. A Subsidiary Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released, (1) upon the consummation of any single transaction or related series of transactions permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary (subject to the proviso set forth in clause (a) of the Excluded Subsidiary definition) or (2) upon the request of the Borrower, in connection with a transaction permitted under this Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a wholly-owned Subsidiary (subject to the proviso set forth in clause (a) of the Excluded Subsidiary definition). Subject to Section 6.19, (i) upon any sale or other transfer as part of or in connection with a Disposition by any Loan Party (other than to the Borrower or any other Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, (ii) if any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Documents does not constitute (or ceases to constitute) and is not required to be Collateral or (iii) upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the Lien or security interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral or the release of any Loan Party from its Guarantee under the Domestic Guarantee Agreement or the Foreign Guarantee Agreement, as applicable, pursuant to Section 9.02, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Security Documents or such Guarantee shall be automatically released. The security interest in any Collateral of a Foreign Loan Party will also be released pursuant to Foreign Loan Documents as specified by the Agreed Security Principles or the Canadian Collateral and Guarantee Requirement, as applicable. Upon the occurrence of the Termination Date, all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section or in connection with any subordination of its interest as required by Article VIII, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, as applicable, to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(iv) to the extent required by the terms of the obligations secured by such Liens at the Loan Parties’ reasonable request. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively as to any of the matters described in this Section 9.15 (including as to its authority hereunder) on a certificate or similar instrument provided to it by any Loan Party without further inquiry or investigation, which certificate shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent by the Loan Parties upon request.

In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between any term of the Agreed Security Principles, if applicable, and any term of a Foreign Loan Document, the Secured Parties authorize, instruct and direct the Collateral Agent to, and the Collateral Agent shall promptly upon written request of the Borrower (i) enter into such amendments to such Foreign Loan Document or (ii) release and terminate such Foreign Loan Document and enter into a replacement Security Document on such amended terms, in each case as shall be necessary or

146

desirable to cure such conflict or inconsistency as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) shall determine in their reasonable discretion.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing such Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section and the other Loan Documents.

Section 9.16 No Fiduciary Relationship. Each of Holdings and the Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, Holdings, the Borrower, the Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications.

Each of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver, in each case on behalf of such Secured Party and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Secured Party (other than direction from the Required Lenders contemplated below), (i) from time to time upon the request of the Borrower, in connection with the establishment, incurrence, amendment, refinancing or replacement of any such Indebtedness, any applicable Intercreditor Agreement (it being understood that each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be acting pursuant to direction of Required Lenders, and Required Lenders are hereby authorized to determine the terms and conditions of any such Intercreditor Agreement, and (ii) any documents relating thereto.

(b) Each of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably (i) consents to the treatment of Liens to be provided for under the Intercreditor Agreements, (ii) agrees that, upon the execution and delivery thereof, such Secured Party will be bound by the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement as if it were a signatory thereto and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) agrees that no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent as a result of any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section or in accordance with the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement and (iv) authorizes and directs each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to carry out the provisions and intent of each such document.

(c) Each of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably further authorizes and directs each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, to execute and deliver, in each case on behalf of such Secured Party and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Secured Party (other than the Required Lender direction referred to above), any amendments, supplements or other modifications of any Intercreditor Agreement that the Borrower may from time to time request (i) to give effect to any establishment, incurrence, amendment, extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement of any Indebtedness under the ABL North America Credit Documents, the Senior Secured Documents and any Indebtedness permitted by Section

147

6.01(a)(xii), to the extent the foregoing is otherwise permitted under this Agreement, (ii) to confirm for any party that such Intercreditor Agreement is effective and binding upon the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of the Secured Parties or (iii) to effect any other amendment, supplement or modification so long as the resulting agreement would constitute an Intercreditor Agreement if executed at such time as a new agreement.

(d) Each of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably further authorizes and directs each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver, in each case on behalf of such Secured Party and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Secured Party, any amendments, supplements or other modifications of any Security Document to add or remove any legend that may be required pursuant to any Intercreditor Agreement.

(e) Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have the benefit of the provisions of Article VIII with respect to all actions taken by it pursuant to this Section or in accordance with the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement to the full extent thereof.

(f) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively as to any of the matters described in Section 9.15 and this Section 9.17 (including as to its authority hereunder), on a certificate or similar instrument provided to it by any Loan Party without further inquiry or investigation, which certificate shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent by the Loan Parties upon request.

Section 9.18 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

148

Section 9.19 [Reserved].

Section 9.20 Amendments for Guarantee Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement and other Loan Documents may be amended or supplemented by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, and the Borrower or any Loan Party as to which such agreement or agreements is to apply, without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender, to include guarantee limitations required by applicable local law and other provisions, in each case where the Required Lenders have determined that such provisions are necessary or advisable under local law for such purpose (with the Borrower hereby agreeing to, and to cause its subsidiaries to, enter into any such agreement or agreements upon reasonable request of the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of Required Lenders) promptly upon such request).

Section 9.21 Parallel Debt; Parallel Debt owed to the Collateral Agent. Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Collateral Agent as creditor in its own right and not as a representative of the other Secured Parties amounts equal to any amounts owing from time to time by that Loan Party to any Secured Party under any Loan Document as and when those amounts are due for payment under the relevant Loan Document.

(a) Each of the Loan Parties and the Collateral Agent acknowledge that the obligations of each Loan Party under paragraph (a) are several and are separate and independent from, and shall not in any way limit or affect, the corresponding obligations of that Loan Party to any Secured Party under any Loan Document (its “Corresponding Debt”) nor shall the amounts for which each Loan Party is liable under paragraph (a) (its “Parallel Debt”) be limited or affected in any way by its Corresponding Debt provided that:

(i) the Collateral Agent shall not demand payment with regard to the Parallel Debt of each Loan Party to the extent that such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Corresponding Debt has been irrevocably paid or (in the case of guarantee obligations) discharged; and

(ii) a Finance Party shall not demand payment with regard to the Corresponding Debt of each Lender to the extent that such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Parallel Debt has been irrevocably paid or (in the case of guarantee obligations) discharged.

(b) The Collateral Agent acts in its own name and not as a trustee, and its claims in respect of the Parallel Debt shall not be held on trust. The collateral under the Collateral Documents granted under the Loan Documents to the Collateral Agent to secure the Parallel Debt is granted to the Collateral Agent in its capacity as creditor of the Parallel Debt and shall not be held on trust.

(c) All monies received or recovered by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 9.21, and all amounts received or recovered by the Collateral Agent from or by the enforcement of any collateral under the Collateral Documents granted to secure the Parallel Debt, shall be applied in accordance with this Agreement.

(d) Without limiting or affecting the Collateral Agent’s rights against the Loan Parties (whether under this Section 9.21 or under any other provision of the Loan Documents), each Lender acknowledges that:

(e) nothing in this Section 9.21 shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent to advance any sum to any Lender or otherwise under any Loan Document, except in its capacity as lender; and

149

(f) for the purpose of any vote taken under any Loan Document, the Collateral Agent shall not be regarded as having any participation or commitment other than those which it has in its capacity as a lender.

(g) Special Appointment of Collateral Agent (German Collateral)

(i) For the purposes of any security provided under the German Collateral Documents (where “German Collateral” means any security interest created under the German Collateral Documents) in addition to the provision set out above, the specific provisions set out in paragraphs (b) to (f) of this Section 9.21 shall be applicable. In the case of any inconsistency, the provisions set out in paragraphs (b) to (f) of this Section 9.21 shall prevail. The provisions set out in paragraph (b) to (f) of this Section 9.21 shall not constitute a trust but a fiduciary relationship (Treuhand) within the meaning of German law.

(ii) With respect to any German Collateral constituted by non–accessory (nicht akzessorische) security interests, the Collateral Agent shall hold, administer and, as the case may be, enforce or release that German Collateral in its own name, but as trustee (Treuhänder) for the account of the Secured Parties.

(iii) With respect to any German Collateral constituted by accessory (akzessorische) security interests, the Collateral Agent shall administer and, as the case may be, enforce or release that German Collateral in the name of and for and on behalf of the Secured Parties and shall hold, administer and, as the case may be, enforce or release that German Collateral in its own name on the basis of its own rights under Section 9.21.

(iv) Each Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent) hereby instructs and authorizes the Collateral Agent (with the right of sub-delegation) to act as its agent (Stellvertreter) and in particular (without limitation) to enter into and amend any documents evidencing German Collateral and to make and accept all declarations and take all actions it considers necessary or useful in connection with any German Collateral on behalf of that Secured Party. The Collateral Agent shall further be entitled to enforce or release any German Collateral, to perform any rights and obligations under any documents evidencing German Collateral and to execute new and different documents evidencing or relating to the German Collateral.

(v) At the request of the Collateral Agent, each Secured Party shall provide the Collateral Agent with a separate written power of attorney (Spezialvollmacht) for the purposes of executing any agreements and documents or otherwise acting on their behalf. Each Secured Party hereby ratifies and approves all acts previously done by the Collateral Agent on such secured party’s behalf.

(vi) Each Secured Party which becomes a party to this Agreement ratifies and approves all acts and declarations previously done by the Collateral Agent on such Secured Party’s behalf (including, for the avoidance of doubt the declarations made by the Collateral Agent as representative without power of attorney (Vertreter ohne Vertretungsmacht) in relation to the creation of any pledge (Pfandrecht) on behalf and for the benefit of each Secured Party as future pledgee or otherwise).

150

(vii) Each Secured Party hereby releases the Collateral Agent from the restrictions imposed by Section 181 German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) and similar restrictions applicable to it pursuant to any other law, in each case to the extent legally possible to that Secured Party. A Secured Party which is barred by its constitutional documents or by-laws from granting such exemption shall notify the Collateral Agent accordingly.

(viii) The Collateral Agent accepts its appointment as agent and administrator of the German Collateral on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Agreement and the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent and all other parties to this Agreement agree that, in relation to any German Collateral, no Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent in that capacity) shall exercise any independent power to enforce any German Collateral or take any other action in relation to the enforcement of the German Collateral, or make or receive any declarations in relation thereto.

(h) Special Appointment of Collateral Agent (Norwegian Collateral)

(i) For the purposes of any security provided under the Norwegian Collateral Documents (where "Norwegian Collateral" means any security interest created under the Norwegian Collateral Documents), each Secured Party hereby appoints the Collateral Agent to act as its agent under and in connection with the Norwegian Collateral on behalf of that Secured Party and the Collateral Agent declares that it holds the Norwegian Collateral on behalf of that Secured Party on the terms contained in the Norwegian Collateral Documents and this Agreement.

(ii) Each Secured Party authorizes the Collateral Agent to perform the duties, obligations and responsibilities and to exercise the rights, powers, authorities and discretions specifically given to the Collateral Agent under or in connection with the Norwegian Collateral Documents together with any other incidental rights, powers, authorities and discretions.

Section 9.22 Erroneous Payments.

(a) Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) if any Agent notifies such Lender that such Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from such Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to such Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to such Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of setoff or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by such Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge (or deemed knowledge) of such error) notify such Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from such Agent, it shall promptly, but in all events no later than one Business Day thereafter, return to such Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to such Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(c) The Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Agents shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party; except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by such Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(d) Each party’s obligations under this Section 9.22 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agents, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Loan Document Obligations (or any portion thereof).

Section 9.23 Original Issue Discount. THE TERM LOANS HAVE BEEN ISSUED WITH ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT FOR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES. THE ISSUE PRICE, AMOUNT OF ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT, ISSUE DATE AND YIELD TO MATURITY OF THE TERM LOANS MAY BE OBTAINED BY WRITING TO THE BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS SPECIFIED HEREIN.

152

(b) Notwithstanding this amendment and restatement of the Prepetition Term Loan Agreement, including anything in this Section 9.24, and of any related “Loan Documents” (as such term is defined in the Prepetition Term Loan Agreement and referred to herein, individually or collectively, as the “Prior Loan Documents”), (a) all Obligations (as defined in the Prepetition Term Loan Agreement) outstanding under the Prepetition Term Loan Agreement and other Prior Loan Documents (the “Existing Obligations”) shall continue as Obligations hereunder to the extent not repaid on or before the Effective Date, (b) each of this Agreement and any other Loan Document (as defined herein) that is amended and restated in connection with this Agreement is given as a substitution for, and not as a payment of, the indebtedness, liabilities and Existing Obligations of the Borrower and each Loan Party under the Prepetition Term Loan Agreement or any other Prior Loan Document and (c) neither the execution and delivery of such documents nor the consummation of any other transaction contemplated hereunder shall constitute a novation of the Prepetition Term Loan Agreement or of any of the other Prior Loan Documents or any obligations thereunder.
