Additional Amounts shall be payable 10 days following delivery by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers of a notice (which shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) setting forth in reasonable detail the Administrative Agent’s calculation of the amount of any Additional Amounts owed to the Lenders and/or the L/C Issuer.

In addition to the Return Bid, the participating Lender must execute and deliver, to be held in escrow by the Auction Agent, an Assignment and Assumption with the principal amount of the Term Loans to be assigned to be left in blank, which amount shall be completed by the Auction Agent in accordance with the final determination of such Lender’s Qualifying Bid pursuant to clause (c) below.

Party, will determine the applicable price (the “Applicable Price”) for the Auction, which will be the lowest Reply Price for which the Auction Party can complete the Auction at the Auction Amount; provided that, in the event that the Reply Amounts are insufficient to allow the Auction Party to complete a purchase of the entire Auction Amount (any such Auction, a “Failed Auction”), the Auction Party shall either, at its election, (i) withdraw the Auction or (ii) complete the Auction at an Applicable Price equal to the highest Reply Price sufficient to complete a purchase of the entire Auction Amount. The Auction Party shall purchase the relevant Term Loans (or the respective portions thereof) from each Lender with a Reply Price that is equal to or lower than the Applicable Price (“Qualifying Bids”) at the Applicable Price; provided that if the aggregate proceeds required to purchase all Term Loans subject to Qualifying Bids would exceed the Auction Amount for such Auction, the Auction Party shall purchase such Term Loans at the Applicable Price ratably based on the principal amounts of such Qualifying Bids (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Auction Agent in its discretion). If a Lender has submitted a Return Bid containing multiple bids at different Reply Prices, only the bid with the lowest Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Price will be deemed to be the Qualifying Bid of such Lender (e.g., a Reply Price of €100 with a discount to par of 1.0%, when compared to an Applicable Price of €100 with a 2.0% discount to par, will not be deemed to be a Qualifying Bid, while, however, a Reply Price of €100 with a discount to par of 2.50% would be deemed to be a Qualifying Bid). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within five Business Days following the Auction Response Date with respect to an Auction, notify (I) the Borrower Representative of the respective Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the effective date of the purchase of Term Loans pursuant to such Auction, the Applicable Price, and the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans and the Tranches thereof to be purchased pursuant to such Auction, (II) each participating Lender of the effective date of the purchase of Term Loans pursuant to such Auction, the Applicable Price, and the aggregate principal amount and the Tranches of Term Loans to be purchased at the Applicable Price on such date, (III) each participating Lender of the aggregate principal amount and the Tranches of the Term Loans of such Lender to be purchased at the Applicable Price on such date and (IV) if applicable, each participating Lender of any rounding and/or proration pursuant to the second preceding sentence. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Borrower Representative and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.

(d) Additional Procedures.

(i) Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Auction Party may not withdraw an Auction other than a Failed Auction. Furthermore, in connection with any Auction, upon submission by a Lender of a Qualifying Bid, such Lender will be obligated to sell the entirety or its allocable portion of the Reply Amount, as the case may be, at the Applicable Price.

(ii) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each purchase of Term Loans pursuant to an Auction shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent with the provisions in this definition, established by the Auction Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by the Borrower Representative.

(b) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

Not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) three Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Appropriate Lenders. Each notice by the Borrower Representative pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent in the form of a written Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers). Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of not less than (x) €1,000,000 or a whole multiple of €1,000,000 in excess thereof if denominated in Euros, (y) $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof if denominated in Dollars, or (z) a Euro Amount of €1,000,000 or a whole multiple of a Euro Amount of €1,000,000 in excess thereof if denominated in an Alternative Currency. Except as provided in Sections 2.03(d) and 2.04(c), each Borrowing of, or conversion to, Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of a $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice shall specify (i) which Term Borrower or Revolving Borrower, as the case may be, is requesting a Term Borrowing (and whether such Term Borrowing is a Borrowing of Euro Term Loans or Dollar Term Loans), a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of a Tranche of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, the currency in which the Revolving Credit Loans to be borrowed are to be denominated, (v) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which an existing Tranche of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans are to be converted and (vi) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If, (x) with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, the applicable Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or if such Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Tranche of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans or (y) with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Euros, Sterling or an Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or if the Borrowers fail to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Tranche of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as, or converted to, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one month. Any such automatic conversion or continuation pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable

Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period (or fails to give a timely notice requesting a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans), it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. If no currency is specified, the requested Borrowing shall be in Euros.

(b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender of the amount of its ratable share of the applicable Tranche of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loan is provided by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Eurocurrency Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month or Base Rate Loans, as applicable, as described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of a Term Borrowing or a Revolving Credit Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s office not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars, and not later than 8:00 a.m. (New York City time) in the case of any Loan denominated in Euros, Sterling or an Alternative Currency, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (or, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the applicable Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the applicable Borrower on the books of the Administrative Agent with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers); provided, however, that if, on the date the Committed Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and second, to the applicable Borrower as provided above.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan unless the Borrowers pay the amount due under Section 3.06 in connection therewith. During the existence of an Event of Default, at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, no Loans denominated in Dollars may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurocurrency Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the Eurocurrency Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(e) After giving effect to all Term Borrowings, all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect.

(f) The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

Section 2.03 Letters of Credit.

(a) The Letter of Credit Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) each L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit and bank guarantees for the account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary, other than subsidiaries of Parent incorporated or organized under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany (provided that the applicable Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for amounts drawn on any Letters of Credit issued for the account of any other Borrower or any Subsidiary on a

joint and several basis with such Subsidiary) and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(b), and (2) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit and (B) the Revolving Credit Lenders under any Revolving Tranche severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary; provided that no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to make any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit, if as of the date of such L/C Credit Extension (w) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit Facility, (x) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender under the applicable Revolving Tranche, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations under such Revolving Tranche, would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment under such Revolving Tranche, (y) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit or (z) the Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency which has not been agreed to by the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer, all of the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrower Representative. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers’ ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrowers may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.

(i) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such L/C Issuer or any request or directive from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which, in each case, such L/C Issuer in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ material to it;

(B) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than 12 months after the date of issuance or last renewal, unless the Required Revolving Lenders and the L/C Issuer, in their sole discretion, have approved such expiry date;

(C) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless (i) all the Revolving Credit Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer have approved such expiry date and/or (ii) the L/C Issuer has approved such expiry date and such requested Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized by the applicant requesting such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.16 at least five Business Days prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided that in no event shall any such extension act as an extension of the obligation of the Revolving Credit Lenders to participate in participating reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit following the Maturity Date;

(D) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more generally applicable policies of such L/C Issuer in place at the time of such request;

(E) such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount of less than a Euro Amount equal to €10,000 or such lesser amount as is acceptable to the applicable L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent in each of their sole discretion;

(F) the L/C Issuer does not as of the issuance date of such requested Letter of Credit issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency; or

(G) any Revolving Credit Lender under the applicable Revolving Tranche is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the applicable L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements, including reallocation of the Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding L/C

Obligations pursuant to Section 2.17(a)(iv) or the delivery of Cash Collateral in accordance with Section 2.16 with the Borrowers or such Lender to eliminate such L/C Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure under such Revolving Tranche (after giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which such L/C Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure under such Revolving Tranche.

(ii) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

(iii) Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders under the applicable Revolving Tranche with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included each L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to each L/C Issuer.

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower Representative delivered to the applicable L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, including agreed-upon draft language for such Letter of Credit reasonably acceptable to the applicable L/C Issuer (it being understood that such draft language for each such Letter of Credit must be in English or, if agreed to in the sole discretion of the applicable L/C Issuer, accompanied by an English translation certified by the applicable Borrower to be a true and correct English translation), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least three Business Days in the case of a Letter of Credit to be denominated in Dollars, or at least five Business Days in the case of a Letter of Credit to be denominated in Euros, Sterling or an Alternative Currency (or, in either case, such shorter period as such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer otherwise agree); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the currency in which the requested Letter of Credit will be denominated (which must be Dollars, Euros, Sterling or such other Alternative Currency); (H) the Person for whose account the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued (which must be a Borrower Party); and (I) such other matters as the applicable L/C Issuer may reasonably request. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer: (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment and (4) such other matters as the applicable L/C Issuer may reasonably request.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower Representative on behalf of the applicable Borrower and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by such L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower or any Subsidiary (as designated in the Letter of Credit Application) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit under any Revolving Tranche, each Revolving Credit Lender under such Revolving Tranche shall

be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Tranche multiplied by the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii) If the Borrower Representative on behalf of the applicable Borrower Party so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit”); provided that if the applicable L/C Issuer would not have been obligated to issue such Letter of Credit as permitted under Section 2.03(a), then the L/C Issuer may prevent any such renewal at the commencement of the upcoming 12-month period (unless Cash Collateralized or backstopped in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L /C Issuer) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof and the Borrower Representative not later 30 days after the commencement of such 12-month period. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable L/C Issuer, the Borrower Representative shall not be required to make a specific request to the applicable L/C Issuer for any such renewal. Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders under the applicable Revolving Tranche shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable L/C Issuer to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that such L/C Issuer shall not permit any such renewal if such L/C Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.03(a)(i) or otherwise).

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable L/C Issuer will also (A) deliver to the Borrower Representative, the applicable Borrower Party and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment and (B) notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable Revolving Tranche of such issuance or amendment and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share therein.

(v) If (a) the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit issued hereunder is an issuer of a letter of credit not governed by this Agreement to a Borrower or any Subsidiary (an “Other L/C”), and (b) such Letter of Credit is issued to provide credit support for such Other L/C, no amendments may be made to such Other L/C without the consent of the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder.

(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) and the Administrative Agent thereof. Each L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) on the date of any payment by such L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), and the Borrowers shall reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable L/C Issuer if required by applicable Law) in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing (and in the same currency in which such drawing was made) no later than on the next succeeding Business Day (and any reimbursement made on such next Business Day shall be taken into account in computing interest and fees in respect of any such Letter of Credit) after the Borrower Representative shall have received notice of such payment with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such L/C Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the respective Honor Date, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but excluding the date such L/C Issuer was reimbursed by the Borrowers therefor at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Rate as in effect from time to time for Revolving Credit Loans that are maintained as Base Rate Loans. If the Borrowers fail to so reimburse such L/C Issuer on such next Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable Revolving Tranche of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in the Euro Amount thereof in the case of Dollars, Sterling or an Alternative Currency) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, (x) in the case of an Unreimbursed Amount denominated in Dollars, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (y) in the case of an Unreimbursed Amount denominated in Euros, Sterling or an Alternative Currency expressed in its Euro Amount, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Euros, in each case, under the applicable Revolving Tranche and to be disbursed on such date in an amount equal to (A) the Unreimbursed Amount plus (B) in the case of any Unreimbursed Amount denominated in Sterling or any

Alternative Currency and expressed in its Euro Amount, an additional amount equal to the amount required to convert Euros into Sterling or such Alternative Currency, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as the case may be, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments under the applicable Revolving Tranche and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by an L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such a prompt confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Revolving Credit Lender under the applicable Revolving Tranche (including each Lender acting as an L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer, at the Administrative Agent’s office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) in the case of amounts denominated in Dollars, and not later than 8:00 a.m. (New York City time) in the case of amounts denominated in Euros, Sterling or an Alternative Currency, in each case on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan in the form of in the case of a Letter of Credit (x) denominated in Dollars, a Base Rate Loan to the Borrowers in such amount and (y) denominated in Euros, Sterling or an Alternative Currency, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in Euros to the Borrowers in such amount plus, in the case of any Unreimbursed Amount denominated in any Alternative Currency expressed in its Euro Amount, an additional amount equal to the amount required to convert Euros into such Alternative Currency. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable L/C Issuer.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans for Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or Eurocurrency Rate Loans for Letters of Credit denominated in Euros, Sterling or an Alternative Currency, as the case may be, because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced plus, in the case of any Unreimbursed Amount denominated in Sterling or an Alternative Currency expressed in its Euro Amount, an additional amount equal to the amount required to convert Euros into Sterling or such Alternative Currency, as the case may be, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate then applicable to Revolving Credit Loans. In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv) Until each Revolving Credit Lender under the applicable Revolving Tranche funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of such L/C Issuer.

(v) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against such L/C Issuer, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the unavailability of any currency, (C) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or (D) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) of a Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the applicable L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect and a rate reasonably determined by such L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the applicable L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Repayment of Participations. (i) If, at any time after an L/C Issuer under any Revolving Tranche has made a payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender under such Revolving Tranche such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or, in the case of any Unreimbursed Amount denominated in Sterling or an Alternative Currency expressed in its Euro Amount, an additional amount equal to the amount required to convert Euros into Sterling or such Alternative Currency, as the case may be, or, in each case interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrowers or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of an L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender under the applicable Revolving Tranche shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause (ii) shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrowers may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the applicable L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any payment by the applicable L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the applicable L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, administrator, administrative receiver, judicial manager, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

(v) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Guaranty or any other guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations of the Borrowers in respect of such Letter of Credit; or

(vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrowers.

The Borrowers shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to them and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the instructions of the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) or other irregularity, the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) will promptly notify the applicable L/C Issuer. The Borrowers shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against any L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrowers agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the applicable L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the applicable L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment) or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrowers from pursuing such rights and remedies as they may have against the beneficiary or transferee at Law or under any other agreement. None of the applicable L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of such L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.03(c); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers may have a claim against such L/C Issuer, and such L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrowers, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to indirect, special, punitive, consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrowers which a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final non-appealable judgment were caused by such L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the applicable L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a Letter of Credit fee which shall accrue for each Letter of Credit of each Revolving Tranche in an amount equal to the Applicable Rate then in effect for Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility multiplied by the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit); provided, however, that any Letter of Credit fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided

Cash Collateral satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders under the applicable Revolving Tranche in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Pro Rata Shares allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.17(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account. Such Letter of Credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, in respect of the quarterly period then ending (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily maximum amount of each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Each payment of fees under this Section 2.03(g) on any Letters of Credit shall be made in Euros.

(h) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to an L/C Issuer. The Borrowers shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee at a rate equal to 0.125% per annum computed on the maximum daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December in respect of the quarterly period then ending (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility. For purposes of computing the maximum daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.08. Each payment of fees required above under this Section 2.03(h) on any Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made in the relevant Alternative Currency (even if the Borrowers are required to convert currency to do so). In addition, the Borrowers shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, administration, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable within five Business Days of demand and are nonrefundable.

(i) Conflict with Letter of Credit Application. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control.

(j) Reporting. To the extent that any Letters of Credit are issued by an L/C Issuer other than the Administrative Agent, each such L/C Issuer shall furnish to the Administrative Agent a report detailing the daily L/C Obligations outstanding under all Letters of Credit issued by it under any Revolving Tranche of the Revolving Credit Facility, such report to be in a form and at reporting intervals as shall be agreed between the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer; provided that in no event shall such reports be furnished at intervals greater than 31 days.

(k) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments. If the Maturity Date in respect of any Revolving Tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of which the Maturity Date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Credit Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to this Section 2.03) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of such non-terminating Revolving Tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Credit Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and to the extent any Letters of Credit are not able to be reallocated pursuant to this clause (i) and there are outstanding Revolving Credit Loans under the non-terminating Revolving Tranches, the Borrowers agree to repay all such Revolving Credit Loans (or such lesser amount as is necessary to reallocate all Letters of Credit pursuant to this clause (i)) or (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.16 but only up to the amount of such Letter of Credit not so reallocated. Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the occurrence of a Maturity Date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Credit Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such Maturity Date.

Section 2.04 [Reserved].

Section 2.05 Prepayments.

(a) Optional. (i) The Borrowers may, upon written notice by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty except as set forth in Section 2.05(a)(iv) below; provided that (1) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loan and (B) one Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (2) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a principal Euro Amount of €1,000,000 (or in the case of a prepayment of a Loan denominated in Dollars, $1,000,000) or a whole multiple of the Euro Amount of €1,000,000 (or in the case of prepayment of a Loan denominated in Dollars, $1,000,000) in excess thereof; and (3) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding (it being understood that Base Rate Loans shall be denominated in Dollars only). Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, the Tranche of Loans to be prepaid, the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurocurrency Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans (except that if the class of Loans to be prepaid includes both Base Rate Loans and Eurocurrency Rate Loans, absent direction by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), the applicable prepayment shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, in each case in a manner that minimizes the amount payable by the Borrowers in respect of such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.06). The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s ratable share of the relevant Facility). If such notice is given by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), subject to clause (iii) below, the Borrowers shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(iv) and Section 3.06. Subject to Section 2.17, each prepayment of outstanding Term Loan Tranches pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall be applied to each Term Loan Tranche on a pro rata basis (or, if agreed to in writing by the Majority Lenders of a Term Loan Tranche, in a manner that provides for more favorable prepayment treatment of other Term Loan Tranches, so long as each other such Term Loan Tranche receives its Pro Rata Share of any amount to be applied more favorably, except to the extent otherwise agreed by the Majority Lenders of each Term Loan Tranche receiving less than such Pro Rata Share) (other than a prepayment of Term Loans with the proceeds of (x) Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 2.18 or (y) any Refinancing Notes issued to the extent permitted under Section 7.02(o)(i), which, in each case, shall be applied to the Term Loan Tranche being refinanced pursuant thereto). All voluntary prepayments of a Term Loan Tranche in accordance with this Section 2.05(a) shall be applied to the remaining scheduled installments of the respective Term Loan Tranche as directed by the Borrowers (or, if the Borrowers have not made such designation, in direct order of maturity); and each such prepayment shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders on a pro rata basis, except as set forth above.

(ii) [Reserved].

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any notice of prepayment under Section 2.05(a) may state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the applicable Borrowers (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(iv) In the event that, on or prior to the date that is six (6) months after the Closing Date, any Borrower (x) prepays, repays, refinances, substitutes or replaces any Term Loans in connection with a Repricing Transaction, or (y) effects any amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent under, this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction (in each case other than in connection with Indebtedness incurred for a Change of Control, a Transformative Acquisition or an IPO), such Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the

ratable account of each of the applicable Lenders, (I) in the case of clause (x), a premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced and (II) in the case of clause (y), a fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans that are the subject of such Repricing Transaction outstanding immediately prior to such amendment, modification, waiver or consent. If, on or prior to the date that is six (6) months after the Closing Date, all or any portion of the Term Loans held by any Lender are prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced as a result of, or in connection with, such Lender not agreeing or otherwise consenting to any waiver, consent, modification or amendment referred to in clause (y) above (or otherwise in connection with a Repricing Transaction), such prepayment, repayment, refinancing, substitution or replacement will be made at 101% of the principal amount so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced. All such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction.

(b) Mandatory. (i) Within five (5) Business Days after financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(c) and the related Compliance Certificate has been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(d) (or, if earlier, the date on which such financial statements and such Compliance Certificate are required to be delivered pursuant to such clauses), the Borrowers shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to (A) 50.0% (as may be adjusted pursuant to the proviso below) of Excess Cash Flow for the Fiscal Year covered by such financial statements commencing with the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2016, minus (B) the sum of (1) the aggregate amount of voluntary principal prepayments of the Loans made during such fiscal year or after year-end and prior to when such Excess Cash Flow prepayment is due (except prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans that are not accompanied by a corresponding permanent commitment reduction of the corresponding Revolving Credit Commitments but including Loans repurchased pursuant to Dutch Auctions or open market purchases in an amount equal to the discounted purchase price of such Loans paid in respect of such Loans pursuant to such Dutch Auctions or through open market purchases), in each case other than to the extent that any such prepayment is funded with the proceeds of a Prepayment Asset Sale, Specified Refinancing Debt, Refinancing Notes or any long-term Indebtedness and (2) any amount not required to be applied pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(ix) during such period; provided that such percentage in respect of any Excess Cash Flow Period shall be reduced to 25.0% or 0% if the Total Net Leverage Ratio (as of the last day of the Fiscal Year to which such Excess Cash Flow Period relates and as evidenced by financial statements that have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(c) and a Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(d) in each case in respect of such Fiscal Year) was less than or equal to 5.00:1.00 or 4.50:1.00, respectively.

(ii) (A) If (x) any member of the Restricted Group Disposes of any property or assets pursuant to a Prepayment Asset Sale and such Disposition results in the receipt of Net Proceeds or (y) any casualty event occurs and results in the receipt by any member of the Restricted Group of Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, in each case, in excess of (x) €10,000,000 in a single transaction or series of related transactions and (y) €30,000,000 in the aggregate in any Fiscal Year (any such transaction or series of related transactions resulting in Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, a “Relevant Transaction”), (1) the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent thereof promptly after the date of receipt of such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable, and (2) except to the extent the Borrowers elect in such notice to reinvest all or a portion of such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable, in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B) (which election shall not be permitted while an Event of Default exists), the Borrowers shall prepay, subject to Section 2.05(b)(viii) an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to all Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable, received from such Relevant Transaction within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof by such member of the Restricted Group; provided that the Borrowers may use a portion of the Net Cash Proceeds received from such Relevant Transaction to prepay or repurchase any other Indebtedness that is secured by the Collateral on a first lien “equal and ratable” basis with Liens securing the Obligations to the extent such other Indebtedness and the Liens securing the same are permitted hereunder and the documentation governing such other Indebtedness requires such a prepayment or repurchase thereof with the proceeds of such Relevant Transaction, to the extent not deducted in the calculation of Net Cash Proceeds, in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (1) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds and (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such other Indebtedness (or to the extent such amount is not in Euros, such equivalent amount of such Indebtedness converted into Euros as determined in accordance with Section 1.08) and the denominator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans and such other Indebtedness (or to the extent such amount is not in Euros, such equivalent amount of such Indebtedness converted into Euros as determined in accordance with Section 1.08).

(B) With respect to any Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable, realized or received with respect to any Relevant Transaction, at the option of the Borrowers, the Borrowers may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable, in the business within 365 days following receipt of such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable (or, if the relevant member of the Restricted Group has contractually committed within 365 days following receipt of such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable, to reinvest such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceed, as applicable, then within 545 days following receipt of such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable); provided, however, that if any of such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceed, as applicable, are no longer intended to be so reinvested at any time after the occurrence of the Relevant Transaction (or are not reinvested within such 365 days or 545 days, as applicable), an amount equal to any such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable, shall be promptly applied to the prepayment of Term Loans (subject to the proviso set forth in clause (A) above) as set forth in this Section 2.05.

(iii) Upon the incurrence or issuance by any member of the Restricted Group of any Refinancing Notes, any Specified Refinancing Term Loans or any Indebtedness not expressly permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.01, the Borrowers shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loan Tranches in an amount equal to 100.0% of all Net Proceeds received therefrom immediately upon receipt thereof by such member of the Restricted Group.

(iv) [Reserved].

(v) Upon the incurrence by any member of the Restricted Group of any Specified Refinancing Debt constituting revolving credit facilities, the Borrowers shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of the applicable Tranche of Revolving Credit Loans in an amount equal to 100.0% of all Net Proceeds received therefrom immediately upon receipt thereof by such member of the Restricted Group.

(vi) If for any reason the sum of the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings under any Revolving Tranche at any time exceed the sum of the Revolving Tranches then in effect (including after giving effect to any reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 2.06), the Borrowers shall immediately prepay Revolving Tranches and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess, and each prepayment and the provision of Cash Collateral shall be applied to each Revolving Tranche on a pro rata basis; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(vi) unless after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Tranches the sum of the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments under such Tranche.

(vii) Subject to Section 2.17, each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied to each Term Loan Tranche on a pro rata basis (or, if agreed to in writing by the Majority Lenders of a Term Loan Tranche, in a manner that provides for more favorable prepayment treatment of other Term Loan Tranches, so long as each other such Term Loan Tranche receives its Pro Rata Share of any amount to be applied more favorably, except to the extent otherwise agreed by the Majority Lenders of each Term Loan Tranche receiving less than such Pro Rata Share) (other than a prepayment of (x) Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, with the proceeds of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 2.18, which shall be applied to the Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Tranche, as applicable, being refinanced pursuant thereto or (y) Term Loans with the proceeds of any Refinancing Notes issued to the extent permitted under Section 7.02(a)(i), which shall be applied to the Term Loan Tranche being refinanced pursuant thereto). Amounts to be applied to a Term Loan Tranche in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied (A) (to the extent applicable) to the scheduled installments with respect to such Term Loan Tranche in direct order of maturity of the remaining scheduled installments following the relevant prepayment event or, (B) if there are no scheduled installments with respect to such Term Loan Tranche, to reduce the final bullet amount due on maturity of such Term Loan Tranche. Each prepayment of Term Loans under a Facility pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Base Rate Loans and Eurocurrency Rate Loans under such Facility; provided that, if there are no Declining Lenders with respect to such prepayment, then the amount thereof

shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans under such Facility to the full extent thereof before application to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, in each case in a manner that minimizes the amount payable by the Borrowers in respect of such prepayment pursuant to Section 3.06.

(viii) All prepayments under this Section 2.05 shall be made together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, any amounts owing in respect of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan pursuant to Section 3.06 and, to the extent applicable, any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(iv). Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.05(b), so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.05(b), other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, either Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder with the Administrative Agent to be held as security for the obligations of the applicable Borrower to make such prepayment pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05(b) (determined as of the date such prepayment was required to be originally made); provided that, such unpaid Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with Section 2.08 until such unpaid Eurocurrency Rate Loans have been prepaid. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05(b) (determined as of the date such prepayment was required to be originally made). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any amounts held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this clause (vii) pending application to the applicable Term Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the applicable Term Loans prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(ix) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.05, to the extent that any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Disposition pursuant to a Prepayment Asset Sale by a Subsidiary (a “Foreign Disposition”) or the Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds of any casualty event from a Subsidiary (a “Foreign Casualty Event”), in each case giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(ii), or Excess Cash Flow attributable to a Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(i) are or is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to Germany, Luxembourg or the United States, as the case may be, (A) the portion of such Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.05 but may be retained by the applicable Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to Germany, Luxembourg or the United States, as the case may be (the Borrowers hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be immediately effected and such repatriated Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05 to the extent provided herein and (B) to the extent that the Borrower Representative has determined in good faith that repatriation of any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds of any Foreign Casualty Event or Excess Cash Flow would have a material adverse tax cost consequence (taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation) with respect to such Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of this clause (B), on or before the date on which any Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.05 (or 12 months after the date such Excess Cash Flow would have been so required to be applied if it were Net Proceeds), (x) the applicable Borrower shall apply an amount equal to such Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow to such reinvestments or prepayments as if such Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been received by the applicable Borrower rather than such Subsidiary, less the amount of

additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow that would be calculated if received by such Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow are applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a Subsidiary, in each case, other than as mutually agreed by the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent.

(x) The Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section 2.05(b), a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment. Each such certificate shall specify the Borrowings being prepaid and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid.

(c) Term Lender Opt-Out. With respect to any prepayment of Initial Term Loans and, unless otherwise specified in the documents therefor, other Term Loan Tranches pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(i), (ii) or (iii), any Appropriate Lender, at its option (but solely to the extent the Borrower Representative elects for this Section 2.05(c) to be applicable to a given prepayment), may elect not to accept such prepayment as provided below. The Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) may notify the Administrative Agent of any event giving rise to a prepayment under Section 2.05(b)(i), (ii) or (iii) at least three Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment that is required to be made under Section 2.05(b)(i), (ii) or (iii) (the “Prepayment Amount”). The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the contents of any such prepayment notice so received from the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), including the date on which such prepayment is to be made (the “Prepayment Date”). Any Appropriate Lender may (but solely to the extent the Borrower Representative elects for this Section 2.05(c) to be applicable to a given prepayment) decline to accept all (but not less than all) of its share of any such prepayment (any such Lender, a “Declining Lender”) by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the time and in the manner specified by the Administrative Agent in its notice to the Appropriate Lenders regarding such prepayment. If any Appropriate Lender does not give a notice to the Administrative Agent within the timeframe specified by the Administrative Agent informing the Administrative Agent that it declines to accept the applicable prepayment, then such Lender will be deemed to have accepted such prepayment. On any Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Prepayment Amount minus the portion thereof allocable to Declining Lenders, in each case for such Prepayment Date, shall be paid to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers and applied by the Administrative Agent ratably to prepay Term Loans under the Term Loan Tranches owing to Appropriate Lenders (other than Declining Lenders) in the manner described in Section 2.05(b) for such prepayment. Any amounts that would otherwise have been applied to prepay Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Term Loans owing to Declining Lenders shall be retained by the Borrowers (such amounts, “Declined Amounts”).

(d) All Loans shall be repaid, whether pursuant to this Section 2.05 or otherwise, in the currency in which they were made.

Section 2.06 Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Optional. The Borrowers may, upon written notice by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) to the Administrative Agent, terminate the unused portions of the Commitments under any Term Loan Tranche, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the unused Revolving Credit Commitments under any Revolving Tranche, or from time to time permanently reduce the unused portions of the Commitments under any Term Loan Tranche, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the unused Revolving Credit Commitments under any Revolving Tranche; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent five Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent shall agree) prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of (x) €2,000,000 or any whole multiple of €500,000 in excess thereof in respect of Commitments denominated in Euros and (y) $2,000,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof in respect of Commitments denominated in Dollars and (iii) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce (A) the Commitments under any Tranche of the Revolving Credit Facility if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, (x) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit Facility or (y) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings with respect to such Tranche would exceed

the Revolving Credit Commitments under such Tranche or (B) the Letter of Credit Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations not fully Cash Collateralized hereunder would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Any such notice of termination or reduction of commitments pursuant to this Section 2.06(a) may state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower Representative (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(b) Mandatory. (i) The Aggregate Commitments under a Term Loan Tranche shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero on the date of the initial incurrence of Term Loans under such Term Loan Tranche.

(ii) Upon the incurrence by any member of the Restricted Group of any Specified Refinancing Debt constituting revolving credit facilities, the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders of the Tranche of Revolving Credit Loans being refinanced shall be automatically and permanently reduced on a ratable basis by an amount equal to 100.0% of the Commitments under such revolving credit facilities.

(iii) If after giving effect to any reduction or termination of Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section 2.06, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at such time, the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.

(iv) If, after giving effect to any determination of the Euro Amount for Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations on any Revaluation Date, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans exceeds the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect by 5.0% or more, the Borrowers shall, within five Business Days of receipt of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent setting forth such calculation in reasonable detail, prepay the applicable outstanding Euro Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans or take other action as the Administrative Agent, in its discretion, may direct (including Cash Collateralization of the applicable L/C Obligations in amounts from time to time equal to such excess) to the extent necessary to eliminate any such excess.

(v) The aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments with respect to the applicable Revolving Credit Facility shall automatically and permanently be reduced to zero on the Maturity Date with respect to such Revolving Credit Facility.

(c) Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of the applicable Revolving Credit Facility of any termination or reduction of the Commitments under the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Revolving Credit Commitment under this Section 2.06. Upon any reduction of Commitments under a Facility or Tranche thereof, the Commitment of each Lender under such Facility or Tranche thereof shall be reduced by such Lender’s ratable share of the amount by which such Facility or Tranche thereof is reduced (other than the termination of the Commitment of any Lender as provided in Section 3.08). All Revolving Facility Fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments and unpaid, shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that any portion of the Revolving Credit Loans have been refinanced with one or more new revolving credit facilities constituting Specified Refinancing Debt, any prepayments of revolving Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.06 (other than any prepayments of revolving Loans made pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(ii)) shall be allocated ratably among the Revolving Tranches.

To the extent not previously paid, each Specified Refinancing Term Loan shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date applicable to such Specified Refinancing Term Loans.

(d) The principal amount of Extended Term Loans of each Extending Term Lender shall be repaid as provided in the amendment to this Agreement in respect of such Extended Term Loans as contemplated by Section 2.15, subject to the requirements of Section 2.15 (which installments shall, to the extent applicable, be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Sections 2.05 and 2.06).

Section 2.08 Interest.

(a) (i) Each Eurocurrency Rate Loan under a Facility shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period from the applicable borrowing date or conversion date, as the case may be, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate applicable to the currency in which such Eurocurrency Rate Loan is incurred for such Interest Period plus (B) the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Rate Loans under such Facility; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan under a Facility shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date or conversion date, as the case may be, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate plus (B) the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans under such Facility. Each Revolving Credit Loan denominated in Euro or an Alternative Currency shall be a Eurocurrency Rate Loan. The Borrowers shall pay interest on all overdue principal of any Loan, which shall include all principal amounts following an acceleration pursuant to Section 8.02 (including an automatic acceleration), at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(b) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein; provided that in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than Revolving Credit Loans bearing interest based on the Base Rate that are repaid or prepaid without any corresponding termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments other than as set forth in Section 2.14(e)), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

(d) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 2.10 of this Agreement.

(e) When entering into this Agreement, the parties have assumed that the interest payable is not and will not become subject to any tax deduction on account of Swiss Withholding Tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a tax deduction is required by law in respect of any payment by a Swiss Guarantor or any other Loan Party qualifying as a Swiss resident pursuant to art 9 of the Swiss Withholding Tax Act (a “Relevant Entity”) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and should it be unlawful for such Relevant Entity to comply with any applicable gross-up provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any reason (where this would otherwise be required by the terms of such gross-up provision) then: (i) the applicable interest rate in relation to that interest payment shall be the interest rate which would have applied to that interest payment as provided for divided by 1 minus the rate at which the relevant tax deduction is required to be made under Swiss domestic tax law and/or applicable double taxation treaties (where the rate at which the relevant tax deduction is required to be made is for this purpose expressed as a fraction of 1); (ii) such Relevant Entity shall: (A) pay the relevant interest at the adjusted rate in accordance with clause (i) above and (B) make the tax deduction on the interest so recalculated; and (iii) all references to a rate of interest under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be construed accordingly.

(f) To the extent that interest payable by a Relevant Entity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document becomes subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, each relevant Lender and each Relevant Entity shall promptly cooperate in completing any procedural formalities (including submitting forms and documents required by the appropriate tax authority to the extent possible and necessary (i) for such Swiss Guarantor to obtain authorization to make interest payments without them being subject to Swiss Withholding Tax and (ii) to ensure that any person which is entitled to a full or partial refund under any applicable double taxation treaty is so refunded.

Section 2.09 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Sections 2.03(g) and (h):

(a) Revolving Facility Fees.

(i) The relevant Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each U.S. Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of each Tranche of the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility a revolving facility fee (collectively, the “U.S. Revolving Facility Fees”) calculated at a rate per annum equal to (x) the Applicable Rate with respect to U.S. Revolving Facility Fees multiplied by (y) the actual daily amount (whether used or unused) of the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments. The U.S. Revolving Facility Fees shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date for the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the last Business Day of the first full fiscal quarter to end following the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility.

(ii) The relevant Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Worldwide Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of each Tranche of the Worldwide Revolving Credit Facility a revolving facility fee (collectively, the “Worldwide Revolving Facility Fees”) calculated at a rate per annum equal to (x) the Applicable Rate with respect to Worldwide Revolving Facility Fees multiplied by (y) the actual daily amount (whether used or unused) of the Worldwide Revolving Credit Commitments. The Worldwide Revolving Facility Fees shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date for the Worldwide Revolving Credit Facility, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the last Business Day of the first full fiscal quarter to end following the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for the Worldwide Revolving Credit Facility.

(b) Other Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts or for the account of the Lenders, as appropriate, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter.

(c) All of the foregoing fees shall be (i) computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days, including, with respect to the Revolving Facility Fees, the first day but excluding the last day occurring in the period for which the relevant Revolving Facility Fees are payable, and (ii) paid on the dates due in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent for distribution, as appropriate, to the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent. Once paid, none of the foregoing fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

Section 2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate.

(a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans 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 (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). 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 2.12(a), 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.

Section 2.11 Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), as a non-fiduciary agent for the Borrowers, in each case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note payable to such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, entries in the Register, evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b), and by each Lender in its accounts or records pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such accounts or records, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, absent manifest error; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such accounts or records shall not limit the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to payments in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s office and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) in the case of amounts denominated in Dollars, and not later than 8:00 a.m. (New York City time) in the case of amounts denominated in Euros, Sterling or any Alternative Currency, in each case on the date specified herein. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Euros in the Euro Amount of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable share in respect of the relevant Facility or Tranche thereof (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) in the case of payments denominated in Dollars, or 8:00 a.m. (New York City time) in the case of payments denominated in Euros, Sterling or any Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrowers shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02(b) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if any Lender does not in fact make its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then such Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand an amount equal to such applicable share in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the applicable Overnight Rate and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged

by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If both the Borrowers and such Lender pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make its share of any Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Payments by the Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or an L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Appropriate Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers do not in fact make such payment, then each of the Appropriate Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed by the Administrative Agent to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the applicable Overnight Rate and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrowers with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.12(b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender on demand, without interest.

(d) Obligations of the Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.01 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 9.01 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 or, to fund its participation or to make its payment under Section 9.01.

(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

(f) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward 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 (ii) second, toward payment of principal and L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and L/C Borrowings then due to such parties.

(g) Unallocated Funds. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s

ratable share of the sum of (a) the Outstanding Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and (b) the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender.

Section 2.13 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations held by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them and/or such subparticipations in the participations in L/C Obligations held by them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of each Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 2.13 shall not be construed to apply to (A) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.16, (B) the assignments and participations (including by means of a Dutch Auction and open market debt repurchases) described in Section 10.05, (C) (i) the incurrence of any Incremental Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.14, (ii) the prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Section 2.14(e) in connection with an Incremental Revolving Facility or (iii) any Specified Refinancing Debt in accordance with Section 2.18, (D) any loan modification offer described in Section 10.01 or Extension described in Section 2.15, or (E) any applicable circumstances contemplated by Section 2.05(b), 2.14, 2.17 or 3.08.

Section 2.14 Incremental Credit Extensions.

(a) The Borrowers may, at any time, on one or more occasions deliver a written request to Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of such request to each of the Lenders) to (i) add one or more new tranches of term facilities and/or increase the principal amount of the Term Loans or any Additional Term Loans by requesting new term loans commitments to be added to such Loans (any such new tranche or increase, an “Incremental Term Facility” and any loans made pursuant to an Incremental Term Facility, “Incremental Term Loans”) and/or (ii) add one or more new tranches of incremental revolving facilities and/or increase the principal amount of any such tranche of incremental revolving facilities (each, an “Incremental Revolving Facility” and, together with any Incremental Term Facility, “Incremental Facilities”; and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Revolving Loans” and, together with any Incremental Term Loans, “Incremental Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, as of any date of determination, (x) €150,000,000 (the “Incremental Amount”) (less the aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Equivalent Debt incurred or issued in reliance on the Incremental Amount), plus (y) an amount equal to any voluntary prepayment made with respect to the Term Loans, Extended Term Loans and/or Replacement Term Loans (including Loans repurchased pursuant to Dutch Auctions or open market purchases in an amount equal to the discounted purchase price of such Loans paid in respect of such Loans pursuant to such Dutch Auctions or through open market purchases) and/or the permanent commitment reduction to be made with respect to any Revolving Facility or any Additional Revolving Facility, in each case excluding prepayments or reductions made with proceeds of long-term Indebtedness, plus (z) an unlimited

amount so long as, in the case of this clause (z), after giving effect to such Incremental Facility, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio calculated on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(b) or (c), as applicable, would not exceed 3.95:1.00 (it being understood that for purposes of clause (z) of this Section 2.14(a), (A) any Incremental Revolving Facilities shall be deemed to be fully drawn, (B) if the proceeds of the relevant Incremental Facility will be applied to finance an acquisition or other Investments permitted under this Agreement, compliance with the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio will be determined as of the date of the execution of the definitive agreement with respect thereto for the most recently ended Test Period for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(b) or (c), as applicable, (C) the Cash proceeds of the relevant Incremental Facility or Incremental Equivalent Debt shall be excluded in calculating the Unrestricted Cash Amount used in determining the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and (D) all Indebtedness under any Incremental Facilities (and any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof) shall be treated as Consolidated First Lien Debt for purposes of the incurrence thereof and all future incurrences of Incremental Facilities under this clause (y), whether such Incremental Facilities are secured on a first lien basis, junior lien basis or unsecured) (the amounts described in clauses (x), (y) and (z) above, the “Incremental Cap”) (it being understood that (I) the Borrowers shall be deemed to have used amounts under clause (y) prior to utilization of amounts under clause (x) or (z) and that the Borrowers shall be deemed to have used amounts under clause (z) (to the extent compliant therewith) prior to utilization of amounts under clause (x), and (II) Loans may be incurred under both clauses (x) and (z), and proceeds from any such incurrence may be utilized in a single transaction by first calculating the incurrence under clause (z) above and then calculating the incurrence under clause (x) above) specifying the amount so requested; provided that:

(i) each such request shall be in an amount not less than €5,000,000,

(ii) except as separately agreed from time to time between the Borrowers and any Lender, no Lender shall be obligated to provide all or any portion of any Incremental Commitment and the determination to provide such commitment shall be within the sole and absolute discretion of such Lender,

(iii) the creation or provision of any Incremental Facility or Incremental Loan shall not require the approval of any existing Lender other than any existing Lender providing all or part of any Incremental Commitment,

(iv) the interest rate applicable to any Incremental Facility or Incremental Loans will be determined by the Borrower Representative and the lenders providing such Incremental Facility or Incremental Loans; provided that in the case of Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Facilities that are incurred on or prior to the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date and are pari passu in right of payment and with respect to security with the Initial Term Loans, such interest rate will not be more than 0.50% higher than the corresponding interest rate applicable to the Initial Term Loans unless the interest rate margin with respect to the Initial Term Loans is adjusted to be equal to the interest rate with respect to the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Facility, minus, 0.50%; provided, further, that in determining the applicable interest rate: (w) original issue discount or upfront fees paid by the Borrowers in connection with the Initial Term Loans or such Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Term Loans (based on a four-year average life to maturity or lesser remaining life to maturity), shall be included, (x) any amendments to the Applicable Rate that became effective subsequent to the Closing Date but prior to the time of the addition of such Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Term Loans shall be included, (y) arrangement, commitment, structuring and underwriting fees and any amendment fees paid or payable to the Arrangers (or their Affiliates) in their respective capacities as such in connection with the Initial Term Loans or to one or more arrangers (or their Affiliates) in their capacities as such applicable to such Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Term Loans shall be excluded and (z) if such Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Term Loans include any interest rate floor greater than that applicable to the Initial Term Loans, and such floor is applicable to the Term Loans on the date of determination, such excess amount shall be equated to interest margin for determining the increase,

(v) the final maturity date with respect to any Incremental Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Original Term Maturity Date,

(vi) (A) any Incremental Revolving Facility shall be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions (other than pricing, fees, maturity and other immaterial terms which shall be determined by the

Borrowers and the lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Facility as the then-existing Revolving Facility) and (B) no Incremental Revolving Facility shall have a final maturity date earlier than (or require commitment reductions prior to) the Original Revolving Maturity Date,

(vii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Incremental Term Facility shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the then-existing Term Loans (without giving effect to any prepayments thereof),

(viii) any Incremental Facility (A) will be subject to, and governed by, the Intercreditor Agreement or another intercreditor agreement on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (B) may rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and pari passu or junior with respect to security with the Term Loans or may be unsecured,

(ix) any prepayment (other than scheduled amortization payments) of Incremental Term Loans that are pari passu in right of payment and pari passu with respect to security with the Initial Term Loans shall be made on a pro rata basis with all then existing Term Loans (and all other then-existing Incremental Term Loans, Extended Term Loans and Replacement Term Loans requiring ratable prepayment), except that the Borrowers and the lenders in respect of such Incremental Term Loans shall be permitted, in their sole discretion, to elect to prepay or receive, as applicable, any prepayments on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis),

(x) (A) except as otherwise agreed by the lenders providing such Incremental Facilities in connection with a Permitted Acquisition, no Event of Default shall exist immediately prior to or after giving effect to any Incremental Facility and (B) except as otherwise agreed by the lenders providing such Incremental Facilities in connection with a Permitted Acquisition, the representations and warranties in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by materiality) immediately prior to, and after giving effect to, the incurrence of such Incremental Facility and the use of proceeds thereof, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by materiality) as of such earlier date,

(xi) on the date of the making of any Incremental Term Loans that will be added to any Class of Term Loans or Additional Term Loans, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 2.08, such Incremental Term Loans shall be added to (and constitute a part of) each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans or Additional Term Loans, as applicable, of the same type with the same Interest Period of the respective Class on a pro rata basis (based on the relative sizes of the various outstanding Borrowings), so that each Term Lender will participate proportionately in each then outstanding Borrowing of Term Loans or Additional Term Loans, as applicable, of the same type with the same Interest Period of the respective Class,

(xii) the covenants and events of default of any Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Term Loans, if not consistent with the terms of then-existing Term Loans, shall not be materially more restrictive to the Borrowers, when taken as a whole, than the terms of the then-existing Term Loans, unless (1) the Lenders under the then-existing Term Loans also receive the benefit of such more restrictive terms (it being understood that, to the extent that any covenant is added for the benefit of any Incremental Term Facility, no consent shall be required from the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the extent that such covenant is also added for the benefit of any then-existing Term Loans) or (2) any such provisions apply after the Original Term Maturity Date,

(xiii) except as otherwise required or permitted in clauses (i) through (xii) above, all other terms of such Incremental Term Facilities, if not consistent with the terms of the Term Loans, shall be as agreed by the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and the lenders providing such Incremental Term Facilities,

(xiv) any Incremental Facility or Incremental Loans that are secured shall be secured only by the Collateral and any Incremental Facility or Incremental Loans shall not be guaranteed by any Person that is not a Loan Party, and

(xv) to the extent that the borrower of any Revolving Credit Loans made under this Section 2.14 is incorporated or organized in the Republic of Germany (including the German Borrowers), the terms of the Incremental Facility shall provide that the proviso appearing in Section 6.11 shall not apply to any Revolving Credit Loan made to such borrower under this Section 2.14;

(b) Incremental Commitments may be provided by any existing Lender, or by any other lender (any such other lender being called an “Additional Lender”); provided that the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Additional Lender’s providing such Incremental Commitments if such consent would be required under Section 10.05(b) for an assignment of Loans to such Additional Lender; provided, further, that any such Additional Lender that is an Affiliated Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.05(g), mutatis mutandis, to the same extent as if such Incremental Commitments and related Obligations had been obtained by such Lender by way of assignment.

(c) Each Lender or Additional Lender providing a portion of the Incremental Commitments shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative all such documentation (including an amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document) as may be reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to evidence and effectuate such Incremental Commitments. On the effective date of such Incremental Commitments, each Additional Lender added as a new Lender pursuant to such Incremental Commitments shall become a Lender for all purposes in connection with this Agreement.

(d) [Reserved].

(e) To the extent the Borrowers elect to implement any Incremental Revolving Facility, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Borrowers shall be permitted to modify the terms of this Agreement with the consent of only the Administrative Agent to appropriately incorporate revolving facility mechanics (including those related to payments, prepayments, purchases of participations and reallocation mechanisms and letter of credit and/or other subfacilities) and other provisions and commitment schedules relating to Revolving Tranches generally and (ii) (x) to the extent any other Incremental Revolving Facility or any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments or Replacement Revolving Facility then exists, (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on any such Revolving Tranches (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of any such Revolving Tranches and (C) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (3) below)) of Loans with respect to any such Revolving Tranches after the effective date of such Incremental Revolving Facility shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Tranches, (2) all letters of credit under any such Revolving Tranches shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all lenders with commitments under such Revolving Tranches and (3) the permanent repayment of Loans with respect to, and termination of commitments under, any such Revolving Tranches after the effective date of such Incremental Revolving Facility shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other revolving facilities, except that the Borrowers shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such revolving facility in full without any requirement to permanently repay and terminate the commitments of any other revolving facilities with a later maturity date than such revolving facility on a pro rata basis and (y) at no time shall there be more than four separate Classes of revolving commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and Replacement Revolving Facilities).

(f) Upon the implementation of any Incremental Revolving Facility pursuant to this Section 2.14, if such Incremental Revolving Facility is through an increase to the existing Revolving Credit Facility (rather than by implementing a new Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment), (i) each revolving Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each relevant Incremental Revolving Facility Lender, and each relevant Incremental Revolving Facility Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed a portion of such revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding letters of credit, if applicable, such that, after giving effect to each deemed assignment and assumption of participations, all of the revolving Lenders’ (including each Incremental Revolving Facility Lender) participations hereunder in letters of credit and (ii) the existing Revolving Credit Lenders of the applicable Class shall assign Revolving Credit Loans to certain other Revolving Credit Lenders of such Class (including the Revolving Credit Lenders providing the relevant Incremental Revolving Facility), and such other Revolving Credit Lenders (including the Revolving Credit Lenders providing the relevant Incremental Revolving Facility) shall purchase such Revolving

Credit Loans, in each case to the extent necessary so that all of the Revolving Credit Lenders of such Class participate in each outstanding borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans pro rata on the basis of their respective Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class (after giving effect to any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.14); it being understood and agreed that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(g) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Loan Parties as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Loans or commitments increased or extended pursuant to this Section 2.14 and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.14, including any amendments that are not adverse to the interests of any Lender that are made to effectuate changes necessary to enable any Incremental Term Loans that are intended to be fungible with the Initial Term Loans to be fungible with such Initial Term Loans, which shall include any amendments to Section 2.07(a) that do not reduce the ratable amortization received by each Lender thereunder.

(h) This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.02 to the contrary.

Section 2.15 Extensions of Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrowers to all Lenders holding Loans of any Class with a like maturity date or commitments with a like maturity date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Loans or commitments of such Class with a like maturity date) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrowers are hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s Loans and/or commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such Loans and/or commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Loans and/or commitments (and related outstandings) and/or modifying the amortization schedule, if any, in respect of such Lender’s Loans) (each, an “Extension”, and each group of Loans or commitments, as applicable, in each case as so extended, as well as the original Loans and the original commitments (in each case not so extended), being a “tranche”; any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate tranche of Loans from the tranche of Loans from which they were converted and any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall constitute a separate tranche of revolving commitments from the tranche of revolving commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied:

(i) no Default under Section 8.01(a), 8.01(f) or 8.01(g) or Event of Default shall exist at the time the notice in respect of an Extension Offer is delivered to the applicable Lenders, and no Default under Section 8.01(a), 8.01(f) or 8.01(g) or Event of Default shall exist immediately prior to or after giving effect to the effectiveness of any Extension;

(ii) except as to (x) interest rates, fees and final maturity (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding clause (iv), be determined by the Borrowers and any Lender that agrees to an Extension of its commitments and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and (y) any covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date, the commitments of any Lender under any Incremental Revolving Facility or Replacement Revolving Facility that agrees to an extension with respect to such commitments extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Credit Commitment”; and the Loans thereunder, “Extended Revolving Loans”), and the related outstandings, shall be a revolving commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms (or terms not less favorable to existing Lenders) as the original revolving commitments (and related outstandings) provided hereunder; provided, however, that with respect to representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants (including financial covenants) and events of default to be applicable to any Extended Revolving Loans, such provisions may be more favorable to the lenders of the applicable Extended Revolving Loans than those originally applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans subject to the Extension Offer, so long as (and only so long as) such provisions also expressly apply to (and for the benefit of) the tranche of

revolving loans subject to the Extension Offer and each other Class of revolving commitments hereunder; provided that (x) to the extent any non-extended revolving commitments remain, or any other Incremental Revolving Facility, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments or Replacement Revolving Facility then exists, (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on such revolving facilities (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of any such revolving facilities and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (3) below)) of Loans with respect to such revolving facilities after the effective date of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other revolving facilities, (2) all letters of credit under any such revolving facilities shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with commitments under any such revolving facilities and (3) the permanent repayment of Loans with respect to, and termination of commitments under, any such revolving facilities after the effective date of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other such revolving facilities, except that the Borrowers shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such revolving facility in full without any requirement to permanently repay and terminate the commitments of any other revolving facilities with a later maturity date than such revolving facility on a pro rata basis and (y) at no time shall there be more than three separate Classes of revolving commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and Replacement Revolving Facilities);

(iii) except as to (x) interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, premiums, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding clauses (iv), (v) and (vi), be determined by the Borrower Representative and any Lender that agrees to an Extension of its Term Loans and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and (y) any covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date (in each case, as of the date of such Extension), the Term Loans of any Lender extended pursuant to any Extension (any such extended Term Loans, the “Extended Term Loans”) shall have the same terms (or terms not less favorable to existing Lenders) as the tranche of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer; provided, however, that with respect to representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants (including financial covenants) and events of default to be applicable to any such tranche of Extended Term Loans, such provisions may be more favorable to the lenders of the applicable tranche of Extended Term Loans than those originally applicable to the tranche of Term Loans subject to the Extension Offer, so long as (and only so long as) such provisions also expressly apply to (and for the benefit of) the tranche of Term Loans subject to the Extension Offer and each other Class of Term Loans hereunder;

(iv) (x) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the then applicable Latest Maturity Date at the time of Extension and (y) no Extended Revolving Credit Commitments or Extended Revolving Loans shall have a final maturity date earlier than (or require commitment reductions prior to) the Latest Maturity Date applicable to any then-existing Revolving Credit Loans, Incremental Revolving Loans, Extended Revolving Loans or Loans under any Replacement Revolving Facility;

(v) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans or any other Extended Term Loans extended thereby (without giving effect to any prepayments thereof);

(vi) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments (but, for purposes of clarity, not scheduled amortization payments) in respect of the Term Loans (and any Additional Term Loans then subject to ratable repayment requirements), in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer;

(vii) if the aggregate principal amount of Loans or commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Loans or commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrowers pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Loans or commitments, as the case may be, of such Lenders shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer;

(viii) the Extensions shall be in a minimum amount of €5,000,000;

(ix) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied or waived by the Borrowers; and

(x) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing.

(b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.15, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments for purposes of Section 2.05, (ii) the scheduled amortization payments (in so far as such schedule affects payments due to Lenders participating in the relevant Class) set forth in Section 2.07(a) shall be adjusted to give effect to the Extension of the relevant Class and (iii) except as set forth in clause (a)(viii) above, no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment; provided that the Borrower Representative may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in the Borrower Representative’s sole discretion and which may be waived by the Borrower Representative) of Loans or commitments (as applicable) of any or all applicable tranches be tendered. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.15 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including Sections 2.05, 2.07 or 2.13) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.15.

(c) No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Loans and/or commitments under any Class (or a portion thereof). All Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Secured Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral and guaranteed on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Secured Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower Representative as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Loans or commitments so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.15.

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrower Representative shall provide the Administrative Agent at least ten Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.15.

Section 2.16 Cash Collateral.

(a) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the applicable L/C Issuer (i) if the applicable L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrowers shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, immediately upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the applicable L/C Issuer, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover 101.0% of all Fronting Exposure of such Defaulting Lender after giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender.

(b) All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee. The Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the

applicable L/C Issuer and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.16(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrowers and the relevant Defaulting Lender shall, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.16 or Section 2.03, 2.05, 2.06, 2.17, 8.02 or 8.04 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to such release) or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.07(b)(viii))) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) or an Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.16 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.04) and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the applicable L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

Section 2.17 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or any Term Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender” (or, in the case of Section 2.17(a)(i) below, pursuant to clause (a), (b), (c) or (d) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender”), then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i) That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.02.

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.09), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuers hereunder; third, if so reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent or reasonably requested by the applicable L/C Issuer, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) may request (so long as no Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer as a result of any non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or L/C Issuer against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by

the Borrowers against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any Revolving Facility Fee pursuant to Section 2.09(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit fees as provided in Section 2.03(g).

(iv) During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.03, the “Pro Rata Share” of each non-Defaulting Lender under a Revolving Tranche shall be determined without giving effect to the Commitment under such Revolving Tranche of that Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect unless an Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender under a Revolving Tranche to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit issued under such Revolving Tranche shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment under such Revolving Tranche of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the sum of (A) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and (B) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations, in each case, under such Revolving Tranche of that Revolving Credit Lender.

(b) If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their ratable shares (without giving effect to the application of Section 2.17(a)(iv)) in respect of that Lender, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.18 Specified Refinancing Debt.

(a) The Borrowers may on a several but not joint basis or on a joint and several basis, from time to time after the Closing Date, and subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), add one or more new term loan facilities and new revolving credit facilities to the Facilities (“Specified Refinancing Debt”; and the commitments in respect of such new term facilities, the “Specified Refinancing Term Commitment” and the loans thereunder, “Specified Refinancing Term Loans”; and the commitments in respect of such new revolving credit facilities, the “Specified Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitment”) pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers, to refinance (i) all or any portion of any Term Loan Tranches then outstanding under this Agreement and (ii) all or any portion of any Revolving Tranches then in effect under this Agreement, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Specified Refinancing Debt: (i) will rank pari passu or junior in right of payment as the other Loans and Commitments hereunder and if secured,

will rank pari passu or junior in respect of security as the other Loans and Commitments hereunder; (ii) will not be Guaranteed by any Person that is not a Loan Party; (iii) will be (x) if secured by the Collateral on a first lien “equal and ratable” basis with the Liens securing the Obligations, incurred by one or more of the Borrowers on a several and not joint basis or (y) if secured on a “junior” basis with the Liens securing the Obligations or unsecured, incurred by either Borrower, in each case, pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement or another intercreditor agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; (iv) will have such pricing (including interest, fees and premiums), optional prepayment and redemption terms as may be agreed by the Borrowers and the applicable Lenders thereof; (v) (x) to the extent constituting revolving credit facilities, will not have a maturity date (or have mandatory commitment reductions or amortization) that is prior to the scheduled Maturity Date of the Revolving Tranche being refinanced and in any event no earlier than the Original Revolving Maturity Date and (y) to the extent constituting term loan facilities, will have a maturity date that is not prior to the scheduled Maturity Date of the Term Loans being refinanced and in any event no earlier than the Original Term Maturity Date, and will have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans being refinanced; (vi) any Specified Refinancing Term Loans shall share ratably in any prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05 (or otherwise provide for more favorable prepayment treatment for the then outstanding Term Loan Tranches than the Specified Refinancing Term Loans); (vii) each Revolving Credit Borrowing (including any deemed Revolving Credit Borrowings made pursuant to Section 2.03) and participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.03 shall be allocated pro rata among the Revolving Tranches in accordance with Section 2.18(e) below; (viii) subject to clauses (iv) and (v) above, will have terms and conditions (other than pricing and optional prepayment and redemption terms) that are substantially identical to, or less favorable, when taken as a whole, to the lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Debt than, the terms and conditions of the Facilities and Loans being refinanced) (provided that a certificate of the Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative delivered to the Administrative Agent in good faith at least five Business Days prior to the incurrence of such Specified Refinancing Debt, together with a reasonably detailed description of the material terms and conditions of such Specified Refinancing Debt or drafts of the documentation relating thereto, stating that the Borrower Representative had determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements set forth in this clause (viii) shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy such requirement unless the Administrative Agent provides notice to the Borrower Representative of an objection (including a reasonable description of the basis upon which it objects) within five Business Days after being notified of such determination by the Borrower Representative); and (ix) the Net Proceeds of such Specified Refinancing Debt shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the pro rata prepayment of outstanding Loans being so refinanced, in each case pursuant to Sections 2.05 and 2.06, as applicable; provided, however, that such Specified Refinancing Debt (X) may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed among the Borrowers and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the then Latest Maturity Date in effect and (Y) shall not have a principal or commitment amount (or accreted value) greater than the Loans being refinanced (excluding accrued interest, fees, discounts, premiums or expenses).

(b) The Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) shall make any request for Specified Refinancing Debt pursuant to a written notice to the Administrative Agent specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof. Any proposed Specified Refinancing Debt shall first be requested on a ratable basis from existing Lenders in respect of the Facility and Loans being refinanced. At the time of sending such notice to such Lenders, the Borrowers (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each applicable Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). Each applicable Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to participate in providing such Specified Refinancing Debt and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its ratable portion (based on such Lender’s ratable share in respect of the applicable Facility) of such Specified Refinancing Debt. Any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of any Specified Refinancing Debt may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Specified Refinancing Debt. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to participate in providing such Specified Refinancing Debt. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and each applicable Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested issuance of Specified Refinancing Debt, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer, if applicable (in each case, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Borrowers may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders in respect of such Specified Refinancing Debt pursuant to a joinder agreement to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(c) The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 2.18(a) above and Section 4.02, and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a certificate of the Borrowers dated the date thereof signed by a Responsible Officer of each Borrower, certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by each Borrower approving such Specified Refinancing Debt, and certifying that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.18(a) above and Section 4.02 have been satisfied and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements, including any supplements or amendments to the Collateral Documents providing for such Specified Refinancing Debt to be secured thereby, consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.01 or delivered from time to time pursuant to Sections 6.12 and/or 6.15 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in Law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into the Refinancing Amendment and any other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrowers as may be necessary in order to establish new Tranches of Specified Refinancing Debt and to make such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in connection with the establishment of such new Tranches, in each case on terms consistent with and/or to effect the provisions of this Section 2.18.

(d) Each class of Specified Refinancing Debt incurred under this Section 2.18 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less than a Euro Amount of €10,000,000 and (y) an integral multiple of a Euro Amount of €1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any Refinancing Amendment may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis) in respect of a Revolving Tranche, pursuant to any revolving credit facility established thereby, in each case on terms substantially equivalent to the terms applicable to Letters of Credit under the Revolving Credit Commitments.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Specified Refinancing Debt incurred pursuant thereto (including the addition of such Specified Refinancing Debt as separate “Facilities” hereunder and treated in a manner consistent with the Facilities being refinanced, including for purposes of prepayments and voting). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any Person other than the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Debt, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of or consistent with this Section 2.18. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Refinancing Amendment and with the consent of each L/C Issuer, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the scheduled Maturity Date in respect of the Revolving Tranche shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Revolving Credit Commitments to Lenders holding extended revolving commitments in accordance with the terms of such Refinancing Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding extended revolving commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such extended revolving commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.

(f) To the extent the Borrowers elect to implement any Specified Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitment, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Borrowers shall be permitted to modify the terms of this Agreement with the consent of only the Administrative Agent to appropriately incorporate revolving facility mechanics (including those related to payments, prepayments, purchases of participations and reallocation mechanisms and letter of credit and/or other subfacilities) and other provisions and commitment schedules relating to Revolving Tranches generally and (ii) (x) to the extent any other Specified Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitment or any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments or Replacement Revolving Facility then exists, (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on any such Revolving Tranches (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of any such Revolving Tranches and (C) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (3) below)) of Loans with respect to any such Revolving Tranches after the effective date of such Specified Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitment shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Tranches, (2) all letters of credit under any such Revolving Tranches shall be

participated on a pro rata basis by all lenders with commitments under such Revolving Tranches and (3) the permanent repayment of Loans with respect to, and termination of commitments under, any such Revolving Tranches after the effective date of such Specified Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitment shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other revolving facilities, except that the Borrowers shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such revolving facility in full without any requirement to permanently repay and terminate the commitments of any other revolving facilities with a later maturity date than such revolving facility on a pro rata basis and (y) at no time shall there be more than four separate Classes of revolving commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and Replacement Revolving Facilities).

Section 2.19 Ancillary Facilities.

(a) Type of Facility. An Ancillary Facility may be by way of any of the following (or any combination of the following): (i) an overdraft, cheque clearing, automatic payment or other current account facility; (ii) a guarantee, bonding or documentary or stand by letter of credit facility; (iii) a short term loan facility; (iv) a derivatives facility; (v) a foreign exchange facility; and (vi) any other facility or accommodation as may be required or desirable in connection with the business of the Restricted Group and which is agreed by the Parent and the relevant Ancillary Lender.

(b) Availability.

(i) If the Borrower Representative and a Lender agree and except as otherwise provided herein, the Lender may provide an Ancillary Facility on a bilateral basis in place of all or part of that Lender’s unused Revolving Credit Commitment (which shall (except for the purposes of determining the Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders, Revolving Credit Lenders and of Section 10.05) be reduced by the amount of the Ancillary Commitment under that Ancillary Facility).

(ii) An Ancillary Facility shall not be made available unless at least five Business Days prior to the Ancillary Commencement Date for that Ancillary Facility, the Administrative Agent has received from the Borrower Representative a notice in writing of the establishment of that Ancillary Facility and specifying: (A) the Revolving Borrower(s) (or, subject to Section 2.19(i), Affiliate(s) of a Revolving Borrower) which may use that Ancillary Facility provided that no Subsidiary incorporated or established in the Federal Republic of Germany shall be a Borrower in respect of an Ancillary Facility which is provided in place of all or part of any Lender’s unused U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment; (B) the Ancillary Commencement Date and expiry date of that Ancillary Facility; (C) the type or types of Ancillary Facility to be provided, including whether such Ancillary Facility will be an Umbrella Ancillary Facility with Local Facilities pursuant to Section 2.19(n); (D) the Ancillary Lender (and any Umbrella Ancillary Local Lender(s), if any); (E) the amount of the Ancillary Commitment, the maximum amount of the Ancillary Facility and, if the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, its maximum gross amount (that amount being the “Designated Gross Amount”) and its maximum net amount (that amount being the “Designated Net Amount”); and (F) the currency or currencies of that Ancillary Facility (if not denominated in Dollars, Euros or Sterling), without prejudice to the rights of the Administrative Agent to so request, any other information which the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in relation to that Ancillary Facility.

(iii) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the establishment of an Ancillary Facility.

(iv) No amendment or waiver of any term of an Ancillary Facility shall require the consent of any Lender other than the relevant Ancillary Lender unless such amendment or waiver itself relates to or gives rise to a matter which would require an amendment of or under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under this clause (iv)). In such a case, the provisions of this Agreement with regard to amendments and waivers will apply.

(v) Subject to compliance with clause (ii) above, (A) the Lender concerned will become an Ancillary Lender; and (B) the Ancillary Facility will be available, with effect from the date agreed by the Borrower Representative and the Ancillary Lender.

(i) Except as provided in clause (ii) below, the terms of any Ancillary Facility will be those agreed by the relevant Ancillary Lender and the Borrower Representative.

(ii) However, those terms (A) to the extent relating to the rate of interest, fees and other remuneration in respect of that Ancillary Facility, must be based upon the normal market rates and terms at that time of that Ancillary Lender; (B) may only allow Revolving Borrowers (or Affiliates of Revolving Borrowers nominated pursuant to Section 2.19(i)) to use that Ancillary Facility provided that no Subsidiary incorporated or established in the Federal Republic of Germany shall be a Borrower in respect of an Ancillary Facility which is provided in place of all or part of any Lender’s unused U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment; (C) may not allow the Ancillary Outstandings to exceed the Ancillary Commitment under that Ancillary Facility; (D) may not allow the Ancillary Commitment of a Lender to exceed the Commitment with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility of that Lender; and (E) must require that the Ancillary Commitment is reduced to zero, and that all Ancillary Outstandings are repaid (or cash cover is provided in respect of all the Ancillary Outstandings) not later than the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility (or such earlier date as the Revolving Credit Commitment of the relevant Ancillary Lender (or its Affiliate) is reduced to zero).

(iii) If there is any inconsistency between any term of an Ancillary Facility and any term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail except for (i) an Ancillary Facility comprising more than one account where the terms of the Ancillary Documents shall prevail to the extent necessary to permit the netting of balances on those accounts; and (ii) where the relevant term of this Agreement would be contrary to, or inconsistent with, the law governing the relevant Ancillary Document, in which case that term of this Agreement shall not prevail.

(iv) Interest, commission and fees on Ancillary Facilities are dealt with in Section 2.19(m).

(d) Repayment of Ancillary Facility.

(i) An Ancillary Facility shall cease to be available on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Facility under which it was established or such earlier date on which its expiry date occurs or on which it is cancelled in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(ii) If and to the extent that an Ancillary Facility expires, or is cancelled (in whole or in part), other than on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Facility under which it was established, in accordance with its terms or is otherwise cancelled in accordance with this Agreement, the Ancillary Commitment of the Ancillary Lender shall be reduced, and the Revolving Credit Commitment of the relevant Lender will immediately be increased, accordingly by an amount equal to the amount of the Ancillary Commitment of that Ancillary Facility (or, if less, that part of it which has expired or been cancelled).

(iii) No Ancillary Lender may demand repayment or prepayment of any amounts or demand cash cover for any liabilities made available or incurred by it under its Ancillary Facility (except where the Ancillary Facility is provided on a net limit basis to the extent required to bring any gross outstanding down to the net limit) prior to its expiry date unless (A) the Revolving Credit Commitments have been cancelled in full, or all outstanding Borrowings under the Revolving Facility have become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or the Administrative Agent has declared all outstanding Borrowings under the Revolving Facility immediately due and payable, or the expiry date of the Ancillary Facility occurs; or (B) it becomes unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for the Ancillary Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund, issue or maintain its participation in its Ancillary Facility; or (C) the Ancillary Outstandings (if any) under that Ancillary Facility can be refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing and the Ancillary Lender gives sufficient notice to enable a Revolving Facility Utilisation to be made to refinance those Ancillary Outstandings.

(iv) For the purposes of determining whether or not the Ancillary Outstandings under an Ancillary Facility mentioned in clause (iii)(C) above can be refinanced by a Borrowing of the Revolving

Facility, (A) the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Ancillary Lender will be increased by the amount of its Ancillary Commitment; and (B) the Borrowing may (so long as clause (iii)(A) above does not apply) be made irrespective of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing is outstanding or any applicable condition precedent is not satisfied (but only to the extent that the proceeds are applied in refinancing those Ancillary Outstandings).

(v) On the making of a Borrowing of the Revolving Facility to refinance all or part of any Ancillary Outstandings, (A) each Lender will participate in that Borrowing in an amount (as determined by the Administrative Agent) which will result as nearly as possible in the aggregate amount of its participation in the Revolving Credit Borrowings then outstanding bearing the same proportion to the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Borrowings then outstanding as its Revolving Credit Commitment bears to the Commitments; and (B) the relevant Ancillary Facility shall be cancelled to the extent of such refinancing.

(vi) In relation to an Ancillary Facility which comprises an overdraft facility where a Designated Net Amount has been established, the Ancillary Lender providing that Ancillary Facility shall only be obliged to take into account for the purposes of calculating compliance with the Designated Net Amount those credit balances which it is permitted to take into account by the then current law and regulations in relation to its reporting of exposures to the applicable regulatory authorities as netted for capital adequacy purposes.

(e) Ancillary Outstandings. Each Borrower and each Ancillary Lender agrees with and for the benefit of each Lender that:

(i) the Ancillary Outstandings under any Ancillary Facility provided by that Ancillary Lender shall not at any time exceed the Ancillary Commitment applicable to that Ancillary Facility and where the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, Ancillary Outstandings under that Ancillary Facility shall not exceed the Designated Net Amount in respect of that Ancillary Facility; and

(ii) where all or part of the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, the Ancillary Outstandings (calculated on the basis that the words “net of any credit balances on any account of any Borrower of an Ancillary Facility with the Ancillary Lender making available that Ancillary Facility to the extent that the credit balances are freely available to be set off by that Ancillary Lender against liabilities owed to it by that Borrower under that Ancillary Facility” in brackets in paragraph (a) of the definition of that term were deleted) shall not exceed the Designated Gross Amount applicable to that Ancillary Facility.

(f) Voluntary Cancellation of Ancillary Facilities. The Borrower Representative may, if it gives the Administrative Agent and the relevant Ancillary Lender not less than five Business Days’ prior notice, cancel the whole or any part of the Ancillary Commitment under an Ancillary Facility, except as expressly set forth in the applicable agreement for an Ancillary Facility and notified in writing to the Administrative Agent.

(g) Information. Each Borrower and each Ancillary Lender shall, promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent, supply the Administrative Agent with any information relating to the operation of an Ancillary Facility (including the Ancillary Outstandings) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time. Each Borrower consents to all such information being released to the Administrative Agent and the other Finance Parties.

(h) Affiliates of Lenders as Ancillary Lenders.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions herein, an Affiliate of a Revolving Lender may become an Ancillary Lender. In such case, the Revolving Lender and its Affiliate shall be treated as a single Revolving Lender whose Revolving Credit Commitment is the amount set out opposite the relevant Lender’s name in Schedule 2.01 and/or the amount of any Revolving Credit Commitment transferred to or assumed by that Lender under this Agreement, to the extent (in each case) not cancelled, reduced or transferred by it under this Agreement. For the purposes of calculating the Lender’s Commitment with respect to the Revolving Facility, the Lender’s Commitment shall be reduced to the extent of the aggregate of the Ancillary Commitments of its Affiliates.

(ii) The Borrower Representative shall specify any relevant Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Lender in any notice delivered by the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.19(b).

(iii) An Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Lender which becomes an Ancillary Lender shall accede to the Intercreditor Agreement and any person which so accedes to the Intercreditor Agreement shall, at the same time, become a party to this Agreement as an Ancillary Lender of the Intercreditor Agreement.

(iv) If a Lender assigns all of its rights and benefits or transfers all of its rights and obligations to a new Lender, its Affiliate shall cease to have any obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document.

(v) Where this Agreement or any other Loan Document imposes an obligation on an Ancillary Lender and the relevant Ancillary Lender is an Affiliate of a Lender and is not a party to that document, the relevant Lender shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate.

(i) Affiliates of Borrowers.

(i) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, an Affiliate of a Revolving Borrower may with the approval of the relevant Ancillary Lender become a borrower with respect to an Ancillary Facility.

(ii) The Borrower Representative shall specify any relevant Affiliate of a Revolving Borrower in any notice delivered by the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.19(b)(ii).

(iii) If a Borrower ceases to be a Revolving Borrower under this Agreement, its Affiliate shall cease to have any rights under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document.

(iv) Where this Agreement or any other Loan Document imposes an obligation on a Borrower under an Ancillary Facility and the relevant Borrower is an Affiliate of a Borrower and is not a party to that document, the relevant Borrower shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate.

(v) Any reference in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to a Borrower being under no obligations (whether actual or contingent) as a Borrower under such Loan Document shall be construed to include a reference to any Affiliate of a Borrower being under no obligations under any Loan Document or Ancillary Document.

(j) Revolving Facility Commitment Amounts. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, each Lender shall ensure that at all times its Revolving Credit Commitment is not less than (A) its Ancillary Commitment; or (B) the Ancillary Commitment of its Affiliate.

(k) Adjustments required in relation to Ancillary Facilities. The Administrative Agent may, by notice in writing to the Revolving Credit Lenders, reallocate drawn and undrawn U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments and Worldwide Revolving Credit Commitments (as applicable) at the end of an Interest Period among U.S. Revolving Credit Lenders and Worldwide Revolving Credit Lenders (as applicable) as may be necessary to ensure that any Revolving Credit Lender that intends to enter into an Ancillary Facility has an undrawn Revolving Facility Commitment sufficient to allow it to enter into such Ancillary Facility; provided that for the avoidance of doubt no such reallocation may increase any Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment.

(l) Adjustment for Ancillary Facilities Upon Acceleration.

(i) In this Section 2.19(l):

“Revolving Outstandings” means, in relation to a Lender, the aggregate of the equivalent in Dollars, Euros or Sterling of (i) its participation in each Revolving Credit Borrowing

then outstanding (together with the aggregate amount of all accrued interest, fees and commission owed to it as a Lender under the Revolving Facility), and (ii) if the Lender is also an Ancillary Lender, the Ancillary Outstandings in respect of Ancillary Facilities provided by that Ancillary Lender (together with the aggregate amount of all accrued interest, fees and commission owed to it as an Ancillary Lender in respect of the Ancillary Facility); and

“Total Revolving Outstandings” means the aggregate of all Revolving Outstandings.

(ii) If a notice is served by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 (or the proviso to Section 8.02 becomes applicable as a consequence of the occurrence of any event described in Section 8.01(f) or (g) which is continuing), each Lender and each Ancillary Lender shall promptly adjust by corresponding transfers (to the extent necessary) their claims in respect of amounts outstanding to them under the Revolving Credit Facility and each Ancillary Facility to ensure that after such transfers the Revolving Outstandings of each Lender bear the same proportion to the Total Revolving Outstandings as such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment bears to the total Revolving Credit Commitments, each as at the date such notice is served (or the proviso to Section 8.02 applies).

(iii) If an amount outstanding under an Ancillary Facility is a contingent liability and that contingent liability becomes an actual liability or is reduced to zero after the original adjustment is made under Section 2.19(a) above, then each Lender and Ancillary Lender will make a further adjustment by corresponding transfers (to the extent necessary) to put themselves in the position they would have been in had the original adjustment been determined by reference to the actual liability or, as the case may be, zero liability and not the contingent liability.

(iv) Prior to the application of the provisions of Section 2.19(l)(i), an Ancillary Lender that has provided an overdraft comprising more than one account under an Ancillary Facility shall set off any liabilities owing to it under such overdraft facility against credit balances on any account comprised in such overdraft facility.

(v) All calculations to be made pursuant to this Section 2.19(l) shall be made by the Administrative Agent based upon information provided to it by the Lenders and Ancillary Lenders.

(vi) This Section 2.19(l) shall not oblige any Lender to accept the transfer of a claim relating to an amount outstanding under an Ancillary Facility which is not denominated in either Dollars, Euros, Sterling or an Alternative Currency for the purposes of the Revolving Credit Facility or in another currency acceptable to that Lender.

(m) Interest, Commission and Fees on Ancillary Facilities. The rate and time of payment of interest, commission, fees and any other remuneration in respect of each Ancillary Facility shall be determined by agreement between the relevant Ancillary Lender and the borrower of that Ancillary Facility.

(n) Umbrella Facilities.

(i) To the extent an Ancillary Lender (an “Umbrella Ancillary Lender”) has established an Ancillary Facility with a Borrower in accordance with this Section 2.19 and has designated such Ancillary Facility in connection with the establishment of Local Facilities as described in this Section 2.19(n) in writing to the Administrative Agent as an “Umbrella Ancillary Facility” (any such Ancillary Facility, an “Umbrella Ancillary Facility”), then an Affiliate of such Ancillary Lender (such Affiliate, an “Umbrella Ancillary Local Lender”) may make bilateral loans to an Affiliate of a Revolving Borrower on the basis of separate agreements with a total maximum principal amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Umbrella Ancillary Facilities established by such Umbrella Ancillary Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19(n) (“Local Facilities”). No Ancillary Lender shall be obliged to make available Local Facilities.

100

(ii) The Obligations under Local Facilities will be guaranteed (the “Local Facilities Guarantee”) by the relevant Borrower under the applicable Ancillary Facility, with the maximum amount guaranteed being the “Local Facilities Guarantee Amount”; provided that with respect to any relevant German Borrower, such guarantee shall be subject to the same provisions applicable to any German Guarantor provided for in Section 12.10, mutatis mutandis, to the same extent as if fully set forth herein (the “Guarantee Limitations”). The Local Facilities Guarantee Amount shall not exceed the amount of the corresponding Local Facility.

(iii) The Umbrella Ancillary Facility shall be deemed utilized, without duplication, by the sum of (i) all direct borrowings or other utilizations by the applicable Borrower under the Umbrella Ancillary Facility, including arising by payment on the Local Facilities Guarantee, and (ii) the Local Facilities Guarantee Amount.

(iv) Upon the making of any demand by an Umbrella Facility Local Lender under the Local Facilities Guarantee, the relevant Borrower shall borrow, under the applicable Umbrella Ancillary Facility, an aggregate principal amount sufficient to satisfy the applicable obligations of the relevant Affiliate of the Borrower with respect to the Local Facility in respect of which such demand was made (and no payment on the Local Facilities Guarantee may be made except from the proceeds of a drawing under the Umbrella Ancillary Facility); provided, however, that any relevant German Borrower’s obligation to comply with this clause (iv) shall be limited to the same extent that the Local Facilities Guarantee is limited by the Guarantee Limitations.

(v) The relevant Umbrella Ancillary Lender’s obligation to extend credit under the Umbrella Ancillary Facility in the circumstances described in clause (iv) above shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right available to such Umbrella Ancillary Lender, the relevant Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the unavailability of any currency, (C) the occurrence or continuance of a default under the Loan Documents, any Ancillary Facility or any Local Facility or (D) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing (including whether or not the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are then satisfied).

(vi) Upon receipt of the proceeds of any borrowing pursuant to clause (iv) above, the relevant Borrower shall concurrently (and no later than one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof) apply the proceeds of such borrowing in satisfaction of amounts demanded under the Local Facilities Guarantee (such obligation being subject to the Guarantee Limitations).

(vii) Unless previously established in connection with an Umbrella Facility pursuant to Section 2.19(b)(ii) above, a Local Facility may only be established upon two (2) Business Days prior written notice from the applicable Borrower to the Umbrella Ancillary Facility to the Administrative Agent and subject to the utilization of the Local Facility (and the making of the applicable Local Facilities Guarantee in connection therewith) not causing the obligations of the applicable Borrower to exceed (x) the applicable Ancillary Commitments of the relevant Umbrella Ancillary Lender and its Affiliates, or the Revolving Credit Commitments of the relevant Umbrella Ancillary Lender and its Affiliates or (y) the total maximum amount of permitted Local Facilities pursuant to this Section 2.19.

(viii) The Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day in advance of the termination of any Local Facility.

(ix) Subject to the terms of this Section 2.19, the terms and conditions of any Local Facility will be as agreed between the relevant Umbrella Ancillary Lender and the borrower of such Local Facility, but in any event may not be in conflict with any term or provision of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Local Facility, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

Section 2.20 Designation of Borrowers.

(a) Parent may from time to time designate one or more Designated Revolving Borrowers for purposes of this Agreement (subject to the requirements of Section 2.01(c) and the definition of “Designated

101

Revolving Borrower”) by delivering to the Administrative Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement in substantially the form attached as Exhibit J hereto (the “Joinder Agreement”), (ii) a Debtor Joinder Agreement with respect to the Intercreditor Agreement duly executed by such Subsidiary and the Borrower Representative five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed effectiveness of such election, (iii) all documentation and other information with respect to such Subsidiary required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation the USA PATRIOT Act no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date of such notice (or such later date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) and (iv) (A) such documents as set out in Section 4.01(b)(i) as they relate to such Designated Revolving Borrower and (as the case may be) its shareholders (as if references to certified copy documents are to those documents in sub-paragraph (A) above of this paragraph (iii) and reference to the “Closing Date” being the date on which it becomes a Designated Revolving Borrower hereunder); and (B) a legal opinion of local counsel to the Administrative Agent (or if customary in the relevant jurisdiction or otherwise, to such Designated Revolving Borrower) relating to such Designated Revolving Borrower and covering matters customarily covered by such opinion from such counsel in the relevant jurisdiction for such accession in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and (C) a copy of each Collateral Document as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request (but always in accordance with Section 6.12 and the Guarantee and Security Principles with respect to Foreign Subsidiaries for accession of any Guarantor and (as applicable) substantially on the same terms as Collateral Documents already in existence), in each case executed by such Designated Revolving Borrower.

(b) Parent may terminate the status of any Subsidiary as a Designated Revolving Borrower for purpose of making further Revolving Credit Borrowings under this Agreement by delivering to the Administrative Agent a written notice of election to terminate such status as a Designated Revolving Borrower (an “Election to Terminate”) duly executed on behalf of such Subsidiary and Parent; provided, at the time of such Election to Terminate, such Subsidiary shall have no Revolving Credit Loans, Ancillary Outstandings or L/C Obligations, and no interest, fees or other amounts shall be then due and payable under the Loan Documents by such Subsidiary. After the delivery of an Election to Terminate in accordance with the requirements of the preceding sentence such Subsidiary shall be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement as a Designated Revolving Borrower (other than in respect of unpaid fees and interest accrued on or prior to the date of such termination) and the commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make any Credit Extension or any extension of credit under any Ancillary Facility with respect to such Designated Revolving Borrower shall be irrevocably and permanently terminated, but after the delivery of such Election to Terminate such Subsidiary shall still be deemed to be a Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement and the delivery of such an Election to Terminate shall not affect the obligations of any other Designated Revolving Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or thereafter incurred by any other Designated Revolving Borrower.

Section 2.21 Designation of Guarantors. Parent (i) shall as required by (and within the time periods prescribed by) Section 6.13 cause any Subsidiary organized in a jurisdiction in which an existing Guarantor is organized (or identified by the Borrower Representative to the Collateral Trustee and reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee) and (ii) may, in its sole discretion, cause such Subsidiaries, in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) to Guarantee the Obligations by causing such Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement, a Debt Joinder Agreement, a Security Agreement Joinder (in the case of any U.S. Subsidiary) and each other document listed in Section 2.20(a) (as if references to the “Designated Revolving Borrower” were to such Subsidiary and “acceding borrower” were to “acceding guarantor”), and any such Subsidiary shall thereafter be a Guarantor and Loan Party hereunder for all purposes.

ARTICLE III.

Taxes, Currency Equivalents, Increased Costs Protection and Illegality

Section 3.01 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document or Ancillary Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (including an administrative order by a German tax authority pursuant to Sec. 50a para 7 German Income Tax Act, and as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from or in respect of any such payment, then the Borrower, the other Loan Party, Administrative Agent or

102

other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by the applicable Borrower or other applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all such deductions or withholdings have been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) In addition but without duplication, the Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Without duplication, the Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 30 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower Representative 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) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers and any Loan Party to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.05(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by 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 any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 3.01(d).

(e) Within 30 days after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.01, 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.

(f) If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or payment of Other Taxes pursuant to Section 3.01(b)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of payments made under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall promptly repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 3.01(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.01(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 3.01(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 3.01(f) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

103

(g) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.01(a) or (c) with respect to such Lender it will, if requested by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to such Lender’s overall internal policies of general application and legal and regulatory restrictions) to avoid or reduce to the greatest extent possible any indemnification or additional amounts being due under this Section 3.01, including to designate another Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 3.01(g) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Sections 3.01(a) and (c). The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender as a result of a request by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) under this Section 3.01(g).

(h) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to any payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers 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 two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 3.01(h)(ii), (iii) and (iv) 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.

(ii) If a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient 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 Recipient shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers 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 Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA to determine whether such Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (ii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(iii) Each Non-U.S. Lender Party that, at any of the following times, is entitled to an exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall (w) on or prior to the date such Non-U.S. Lender Party becomes a “Non-U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (h) and (z) from time to time if requested by the U.S. Borrower or Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide Agent and the U.S. Borrower (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with two completed copies of each of the following, as applicable: (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business), W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax) and/or W-8IMY (together with appropriate forms, certifications and supporting statements) or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender Party claiming exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code,

104

Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax) or any successor form and a certificate in form and substance acceptable to U.S. Borrower and Agent that such Non-U.S. Lender Party is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the U.S. Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (C) any other applicable document prescribed by any Requirement of Law or reasonably requested by Agent or the U.S. Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without such withholding or at a reduced rate of such withholding. Unless the U.S. Borrower and Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Non-U.S. Lender Party are not subject to withholding Tax or are subject to such Tax at a reduced rate, the Credit Parties and Agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable Requirements of Law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

(iv) Each U.S. Lender Party shall (A) on or prior to the date such U.S. Lender Party becomes a “U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (B) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (C) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (h) and (D) from time to time if requested by the U.S. Borrower or Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide Agent and the U.S. Borrower (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with two completed copies of Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender Party is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding) or any successor form and any other applicable document prescribed by any Requirement of Law or reasonably requested by Agent or the U.S. Borrower as will permit any payment under any Loan Document to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.

Each Lender agrees that if any documentation it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly update and deliver such form or certification to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.01(h), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(v) VAT. (i) All amounts expressed to be payable under any Loan Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to Section 3.01(i)(ii) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under any Loan Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party).

(vi) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Finance Party (the “Receiving Party”) under any Loan Document, and any Party other than the Receiving Party (the “Relevant Party”) is required by the terms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Receiving Party in respect of that consideration):

(A) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Receiving Party must (where this paragraph (A) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Receiving Party receives from the relevant tax authority which the Receiving Party reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and

(B) (where the Receiving Party is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Receiving Party, pay to the Receiving Party an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Receiving Party reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.

105

(vii) Where a Loan Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Finance Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

(viii) Any reference in this Section 3.01(i) to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group (including but not limited to any fiscal unities) for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply under the grouping rules.

(ix) In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under a Loan Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that Party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that Party’s VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party’s VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

(x) For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 3.01, include any L/C Issuer.

(xi) The Administrative Agent, and, if legally entitled to do so, any successor or supplemental Administrative Agent that is not a United States person under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall deliver to the U.S. Borrower two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY 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 a trade or business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a United States person with respect to such payments (and the U.S. 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 Treasury Regulation Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)(A)), with the effect that the Borrower can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by Section 1441 of the Code. For this purpose, the Administrative Agent represents and warrants to the U.S. Borrower that it is a U.S. branch of a foreign bank subject to regulatory supervision by the Federal Reserve Board (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)(A)).

Section 3.02 [Reserved].

Section 3.03 Illegality.

(a) If any Lender reasonably determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans or Ancillary Commitments whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate (whether denominated in Dollars, Euros, Sterling or an Alternative Currency), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars, Euros, Sterling or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower Representative through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender, shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay such Loans or, (I) if applicable and such Loans are denominated in Dollars, convert all of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate

106

on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate) or (II) if applicable and such Loans are denominated in Euros or Alternative Currencies other than Dollars, the interest rate with respect to such Loans shall be determined by an alternative rate mutually acceptable to the Borrowers and the Appropriate Lenders, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurocurrency 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 Eurocurrency Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion under Section 3.06. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

(b) If it becomes unlawful for a Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund, issue or maintain its participation in any Loan or Ancillary Commitment, (i) that Lender, shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent upon becoming aware of that event, (ii) the Commitments of that Lender will be immediately cancelled, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower Representative who shall either (x) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.05(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrowers in such instance unless waived by the Administrative Agent) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrowers to find a replacement Lender or other such Person, or (y) repay and cause each other Borrower to repay all Obligations owing (and the amount of all accrued interest and fees in respect thereof) to that Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender, in the case of clauses (x) and (y) above on the last day of the Interest Period for each Loan occurring after receipt by the Borrower Representative of notice pursuant to clause (iii) or, if earlier, the date specified by the Lender in the notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law).

(c) If it becomes unlawful for a L/C Issuer to issue or leave outstanding any Letter of Credit then, (i) that L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent upon becoming aware of that event and (ii) upon the Administrative Agent notifying the Borrower Representative, the Borrower Representative shall procure that each Loan Party shall use its best endeavors to procure the release of each Letter of Credit issued by that L/C Issuer and outstanding at such time.

Section 3.04 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders reasonably determine that for any reason, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan, or that the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, or that deposits are not being offered to banks in the relevant interbank market for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein (or, in the case of a pending request for a Loan denominated in Euros or an Alternative Currency, the Borrowers and the Lenders may establish a mutually acceptable alternative rate).

107

Section 3.05 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy.

(a) If any Lender reasonably determines that as a result of any Change in Law, in each case after the date hereof (other than to the extent any increased cost is suffered or incurred with respect to any Bank Levy (or any payment attributable to, or any liability arising as a consequence of a Bank Levy)), or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any material increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan or Ancillary Commitment the interest on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate or (as the case may be) issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or a material reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (including Taxes on or in respect of its loans, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, but excluding for purposes of this Section 3.05(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Indemnified Taxes indemnifiable under Section 3.01, (ii) Excluded Taxes, and (iii) reserve requirements reflected in the Eurocurrency Rate), then within 15 days after demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

(b) If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law (other than to the extent any increased cost is suffered or incurred with respect to any Bank Levy (or any payment attributable to, or any liability arising as a consequence of a Bank Levy)), regarding capital adequacy or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, in each case after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then within 15 days after demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.

(c) The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves or liquidity with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Rate funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves or liquidity allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any liquidity requirement, reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided the Borrowers shall have received at least 15 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable 15 days from receipt of such notice.

(d) For purposes of this Section 3.05, (i) the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall, in each case, be deemed to have gone into effect after the date hereof, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

Section 3.06 Funding Losses. Upon written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating such compensation, the Borrowers shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

108

(b) any failure by the Borrowers (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan or pursuant to a conditional notice) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Eurocurrency Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrowers;

(c) any failure by a Borrower to make payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) on its scheduled due date or any payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) in a different currency from such Loan or Letter of Credit drawing; or

(d) any mandatory assignment of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans pursuant to Section 3.07 on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loans,

(e) including foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained, or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract (but excluding anticipated profits). The Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

Section 3.07 Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation.

(a) A certificate of any Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article III and setting forth in reasonable detail a calculation of the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under Section 3.03, 3.04 or 3.05, the Loan Parties shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower Representative of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.01 or 3.05, or a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.03, then such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as applicable, will, if requested by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) and at the Borrowers’ expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.06(b)(iv), 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05, as applicable, in the future and (ii) would not, in the judgment of such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as applicable, be inconsistent with the internal policies of, or otherwise be disadvantageous in any material legal, economic or regulatory respect to such Lender or its Lending Office or such L/C Issuer. The provisions of this Section 3.07(b) shall not affect or postpone any Obligations of the Borrowers or rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.05.

(c) If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrowers under Section 3.05, the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, or to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.07(e) shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

(d) If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another any Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in Dollars, or to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.07(c) hereof, such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate

109

Loans denominated in Dollars shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by Section 3.03, on such earlier date as required by Law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 3.03, 3.04 or 3.05 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

(i) to the extent that such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

(ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by such Lender as Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars shall be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

(e) If any Lender gives notice to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.03, 3.04 or 3.05 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars pursuant to this Section 3.07 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

(f) A Lender shall not be entitled to any compensation pursuant to the foregoing sections to the extent such Lender is not imposing such charges or requesting such compensation from borrowers (similarly situated to the Borrowers hereunder) under comparable syndicated credit facilities.

Section 3.08 Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances.

(a) If at any time (i) the Borrowers become obligated to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments described in Section 3.01 or 3.05 (other than with respect to Other Taxes) as a result of any condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.03 or 3.04, (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender (as defined below in this Section 3.08) (collectively, a “Replaceable Lender”), then the Borrowers may, on ten Business Days’ prior written notice from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, either (x) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.05(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrowers in such instance unless waived by the Administrative Agent) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, in the case of a Non-Consenting Lender, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Facility or Facilities for which its consent is required) to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrowers to find a replacement Lender or other such Person or (y) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, terminate the Commitment of such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and (1) in the case of a Lender (other than an L/C Issuer), repay all Obligations of the Borrowers owing (and the amount of all accrued interest and fees in respect thereof) to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date and (2) in the case of an L/C Issuer, repay all obligations of the Borrowers owing to such L/C Issuer relating to the Loans and participations held by such L/C Issuer as of such termination date and cancel or backstop on terms satisfactory to such L/C Issuer any Letters of Credit issued by it; provided that (i) in the case of any such replacement of, or termination of Commitments with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender such replacement or termination shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting Lenders including any other Replacement Lender) to cause the adoption of the applicable modification, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents and (ii) in the case of any such replacement as a result of Borrowers having become obligated to pay amounts described in Section 3.01 or 3.04, such replacement would eliminate or reduce payments pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as applicable,

In connection with the replacement of any Lender pursuant to this Section 3.08(a), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such amounts as may be required pursuant to Section 3.06.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, (i) any Lender that acts as an L/C Issuer may not be replaced hereunder at any time that it has any Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (including the furnishing of a back-up standby letter of credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer or the depositing of Cash Collateral into a cash collateral account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements consistent with the requirements of Section 2.16) have been made with respect to such outstanding Letter of Credit and (ii) the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 9.01.

(c) In the event that (i) the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) or the Administrative Agent has requested the Lenders to consent to a waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or to agree to any amendment or other modification thereto, (ii) the waiver, amendment or modification in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 10.02 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Tranche of the Loans and (iii) the Required Lenders have agreed to such waiver, amendment or modification, then any Lender who does not agree to such waiver, amendment or modification, in each case, shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender”; provided, that the term “Non-Consenting Lender” shall also include (x) any Lender that rejects (or is deemed to reject) an Extension Offer under Section 2.15, which Extension Offer has been accepted by at least the Majority Lenders of the respective Tranche of Loans whose Loans and/or Commitments are to be extended pursuant to such Extension Offer and (y) any Lender that does not elect to become a lender in respect of any Specified Refinancing Debt pursuant to Section 2.18.

Section 6.10 Designation of Subsidiaries. The board of directors (or equivalent governing body or any committee thereof) of the Borrower Representative may at any time designate (or redesignate) any subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Subsidiary; provided that (i) immediately before and after such designation, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) after giving effect to such designation, the Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be no greater than 5.35:1.00 calculated on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(b) or (c), as applicable, prior to such designation, (iii) no subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it is a “restricted subsidiary” for the purpose of the Senior Notes or any Junior Indebtedness or any other Indebtedness in excess of the Threshold Amount, and (iv) as of the date of the designation thereof no Unrestricted Subsidiary shall own any Capital Stock in any Borrower or its Subsidiaries or hold any Indebtedness of, or any Lien on any property of, any Borrower or its Subsidiaries. The designation of any subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment by the Borrower Representative therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the portion of the fair market value of the net assets of such subsidiary attributable to the Borrower Representative’s equity interest therein as reasonably estimated by the Borrower Representative (and such designation shall only be permitted to the extent such Investment is permitted under Section 7.06).

No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, (i) for any purpose that would entail a violation of Regulation T, U or X, or (ii) in a manner which would constitute a “use of proceeds in Switzerland” as interpreted by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration for purposes of Swiss Withholding Tax, unless a written confirmation or countersigned tax ruling application from the Swiss Federal Tax Administration has been obtained confirming that such use does not result in any Loans qualifying as a Swiss financing for Swiss Withholding Tax purposes.

Section 8.03 Right to Cure.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.01 or 8.02, in the event that the Borrowers fail to comply with the requirements of the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.16 at any time when the Borrowers are required to comply with such financial covenant, pursuant to the terms thereof, then (A) from the end of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter until the expiration of the fifteenth Business Day subsequent to the date the relevant financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 6.01(b) or (c) (the last day of such period being the “Anticipated Cure Deadline”), the Parent shall have the right to issue Equity Interests or obtain a contribution to its equity (which shall be in the form of common equity, qualified preferred equity or otherwise in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) in each case, for cash, and contribute the proceeds to the Borrowers, in each case in the form of common Equity Interests (the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by the Borrowers of such cash (the “Cure Amount”), pursuant to the exercise by the Borrowers of such Cure Right, the calculation of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA as used in the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.16 shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustments:

(i) Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA shall be increased, solely for the purpose of measuring the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.16 and not for any other purpose under this Agreement (including but not limited to determining the availability or amount of any covenant baskets or carve-outs (including the determination of Available Amount or the Applicable Rate)), by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; provided that (1) the receipt by the Borrowers of the Cure Amount pursuant to the Cure Right shall be deemed to have no other effect whatsoever under this Agreement (including but not limited to determining the availability or amount of any covenant baskets or carve-outs or the Applicable Rate) and (2) no Cure Amount shall reduce Indebtedness on a Pro Forma Basis for the applicable period for purposes of calculating the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.16 or calculating the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio or the Total Net Leverage Ratio, nor shall any Cure Amount held by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries count toward the Unrestricted Cash Amount for the purposes of calculating any net obligations or liabilities under the terms of this Agreement;

(ii) If, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, the Borrowers shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.16, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.16 as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.16 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement; and

(iii) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of written notice, on or prior to the Anticipated Cure Deadline, that the Parent intends to exercise the Cure Right in respect of a fiscal quarter, the Lenders shall not be permitted to accelerate Loans held by them, to terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments held by them or to exercise remedies against the Collateral on the basis of a failure to comply with the requirements of the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.16, unless such failure is not cured pursuant to the exercise of the Cure Right on or prior to the Anticipated Cure Deadline. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default under Section 7.16 would have occurred and been continuing had the Parent not had the option to exercise the Cure Right as set forth in this Section 8.03 and not exercised such Cure Right pursuant to this Section 8.03, no Lender or L/C Issuer shall be required, at any time while such Event of Default under Section 7.16 has occurred and is continuing and prior to the earlier of (x) the receipt of the Cure Amount by the Borrowers as provided in this Section 8.03 and (y) the Anticipated Cure Deadline, to make any Loan or issue any Letter of Credit under this Agreement.

156

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four consecutive fiscal-quarter period there shall be at least two fiscal quarters in respect of which the Cure Right is not exercised, (ii) there can be no more than five fiscal quarters in respect of which the Cure Right is exercised during the term of the Facilities and (iii) for purposes of this Section 8.03, the Cure Amount utilized shall be no greater than the minimum amount required to remedy the applicable failure to comply with the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.16.

(b) second, to payment in full of Unfunded Advances/Participations (the amounts so applied to be distributed between or among, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers pro rata in accordance with the amounts of Unfunded Advances/Participations owed to them on the date of any such distribution);

(c) third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit fees) payable to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers (including fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel payable under Section 10.03) arising under the Loan Documents and amounts payable under Article III, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (c) held by them;

(d) fourth, (i) to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, the L/C Borrowings, accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit fees and interest on the Loans and L/C Borrowings and obligations of the Loan Parties then owing under Secured Hedge Agreements and the Secured Cash Management Agreements and (ii) to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprising the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Borrowers pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.16, ratably among the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Hedge Banks party to such Secured Hedge Agreements and the Cash Management Banks party to such Secured Cash Management Agreements in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (d) held by them; provided that (x) any such amounts applied pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii) shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the applicable L/C Issuers to Cash Collateralize such L/C Obligations, (y) subject to Sections 2.03(d) and 2.16, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to this clause (e) shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur and (z) upon the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the pro rata share of Cash Collateral attributable to such expired Letter of Credit shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the other Obligations, if any, in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in this Section 8.04;

(e) fifth, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties owing under or in respect of the Loan Documents that are then due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations then owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties; and

157

(f) last, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and owing), to the Borrowers or as otherwise required by Law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements shall be excluded from the application of payments described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be, within five (5) Business Days of written request from the Administrative Agent. Each Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee pursuant to the terms of Article IX and the Intercreditor Agreement for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

It is understood and agreed by each Loan Party and each Secured Party that the Administrative Agent shall have no liability for any determinations made by it in this Section 8.04, in each case except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). Each Loan Party and each Secured Party also agrees that the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to), at any time and in its sole discretion, and with no liability resulting therefrom, petition a court of competent jurisdiction regarding any application of Collateral in accordance with the requirements hereof, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to wait for, and may conclusively rely on, any such determination.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in no circumstances shall proceeds of any Collateral constituting an asset of a Loan Party which is not a Qualified ECP Guarantor be applied towards the payment of any Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements.

Section 8.05 Clean Up Period.

(a) Subject to Section 8.05(b) below, notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, a matter or circumstance relating exclusively to any member of the target group which is the subject of a Permitted Acquisition which would otherwise constitute a Default or Event of Default will not constitute a Default or Event of Default (other than with respect to Section 8.01(a), 8.01(f) or 8.01(g)) during the sixty (60) day period immediately following the closing date of such Permitted Acquisition) (the “Clean Up Period”); provided that: (i) it is capable of remedy and appropriate steps are being taken to remedy it, (ii) the circumstances giving rise to it have not been procured by or approved by any Parent Company or any Subsidiary and (iii) could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) If the relevant circumstances are continuing after the Clean Up Period, there shall be a breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant or Event of Default, as the case may be, notwithstanding the above (and without prejudice to the rights and remedies of the Lenders).

ARTICLE IX.

Administrative Agent

Section 9.01 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent and Collateral Trustee.

Each of the Lenders and L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints Credit Suisse (or any successor appointed pursuant hereto) as its agent and attorney-in-fact and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties, and no Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof, except as expressly contemplated hereby.

158

In relation to any Collateral Document governed by Swiss law (“Swiss Collateral Documents”) and the security interest provided thereunder and without limiting the generality of any other provision of this Section 9.01, the Collateral Trustee shall hold and administer any non-accessory security (nicht-akzessorische Transaktionssicherheit) granted under a Swiss Collateral Document as fiduciary (treuhänderisch) in its own name but for the benefit of the Secured Parties and hold and administer any accessory security interest (akzessorische Transaktionssicherheit) granted under a Swiss Collateral Document as direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) in the name and on behalf of the Secured Parties.

Each Secured Party (other than the Collateral Trustee) hereby appoints the Collateral Trustee as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) and authorizes the Collateral Trustee (whether or not by or through employees or agents) (i) to exercise such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are specifically delegated to or conferred upon the Collateral Trustee under the Swiss Collateral Documents together with such powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto, (ii) to take such action on its behalf as may from time to time be authorized under or in accordance with the Swiss Collateral Documents and (iii) to accept, enter into and execute as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) any pledge or other creation of any accessory security right granted in favor of such Secured Party in connection with the Swiss Collateral Documents under Swiss law and to agree to and execute in its name and on its behalf as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) any amendments, confirmations and/or alterations to any Swiss Collateral Document which creates a pledge or any other accessory security right (akzessorische Sicherheit) including the release or confirmation of release of such security.

Any Person serving as Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee, as applicable, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, unless the context otherwise requires or unless such Person is in fact not a Lender, include each Person serving as Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee, as applicable, hereunder in its individual capacity. 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 the Loan Parties or any subsidiary of a Loan Party or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee, as applicable, hereunder. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee or their respective Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee shall be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law and instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties, (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers that are expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) after the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, has received such direction; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable laws, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee shall have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates in any capacity. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee 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

159

Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, by the Borrower Representative or any Lender, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee 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 hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (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 or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence, value or sufficiency of the Collateral, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, or (vii) the properties, books or records of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof.

If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing. Each Lender agrees that, except with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, it will not take any enforcement action hereunder or under any other Loan Document, accelerate the Obligations under any Loan Document, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under applicable law or otherwise to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales, any sale under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or other similar Dispositions of Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Lender may take action to preserve or enforce its rights against a Loan Party where a deadline or limitation period is applicable that would, absent such action, bar enforcement of the Obligations held by such Lender, including the filing of proofs of claim in a case under the Bankruptcy Code.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee and the Secured Parties agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantee of the Secured Obligations provided by the Loan Parties, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, and all powers, rights and remedies under the other Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Trustee on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private Disposition (including pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code), (A) the Collateral Trustee, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, 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 Disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Trustee at such Disposition and (B) the Collateral Trustee or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such Disposition.

No Cash Management Bank or (except as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement) any Hedge Bank shall have any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Guarantor under this Agreement.

Each of the Lenders hereby exempts the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee from any restrictions on multiple representation and self-dealing under any applicable law, in particular from the restrictions pursuant to section 181 German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch), in each case to the extent legally possible, and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee in any further delegation of powers hereunder, to exempt any agent or attorney-in-fact from any such restriction. A Lender which is barred by its organizational documents or by-laws from granting such exemption shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee accordingly.

160

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon, 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. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. 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 and the Collateral Trustee may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), 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.

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article IX shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the respective Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable.

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving ten days prior written notice to the Lenders and the Borrower Representative. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a commercial bank with an office in the U.S. having combined capital and surplus in excess of €1,000,000,000; provided that during the existence and continuation of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or, with respect to a Parent Company or a Borrower, Section 8.01(f) or (g), no consent of the Borrowers shall be required; provided, further, that in no event shall a Disqualified Institution be the successor Administrative Agent. If no successor shall have been so appointed as provided above and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above if such Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) 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 (and each Lender will cooperate with the Borrowers to enable the Borrowers to take such actions), until such time as the Required Lenders or the Borrower Representative, as applicable, appoints a successor Administrative Agent, as provided for above in this Article IX. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower Representative and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative 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 it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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 either the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and

161

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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, herein, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Trustee shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any of their respective Related Parties.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Arrangers and the joint bookrunners shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except in their respective capacities, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder. Further, the parties hereto all acknowledge and agree that Jefferies Finance LLC is only acting as Lead Arranger under this Agreement in respect of the Initial U.S. Borrower Dollar Term Loans and the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility and not in respect of any of the other Facilities.

Each Finance Party and Secured Party confirms that the Administrative Agent has authority to accept on its behalf (and ratifies the acceptance on its behalf of any letters or reports already accepted by the Administrative Agent) the terms of any reliance letter or engagement letters relating to the Tax Structure Memorandum or any reports or letters provided by accountants in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents and to bind it in respect of the Tax Structure Memorandum, reports or letters and to sign such letters on its behalf and further confirms that it accepts the terms and qualifications set out in such letters.

Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to (or to instruct the Collateral Trustee to), and the Administrative Agent (in the case of clause (d), subject to any such agreements being reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) shall (or shall instruct the Collateral Trustee to),

(a) release any Lien on any property, including capital stock, granted to or held (directly or indirectly) by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon the occurrence of the Termination Date, (ii) that is sold or to be sold or transferred as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted under the Loan Documents to a Person that is not a Loan Party, (iii) that does not constitute (or ceases to constitute) Collateral, (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its Loan Documents otherwise in accordance with the Loan Documents, (v) [reserved] or (vi) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders as may be required in accordance with Section 10.02;

(b) release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary (or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary) as a result of a single transaction or related series of transactions permitted hereunder; provided, however, that the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement if such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary shall only be permitted if, at the time such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary, (1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be outstanding, (2) after giving effect to such release and the consummation of the transaction that causes such Person to be an Excluded Subsidiary, such Borrower is deemed to have made a new Investment in such Person for purposes of Section 7.06 (as if such Person were then newly acquired) and such Investment is permitted pursuant to Section 7.06 (other than Section 7.06(f)) at such time and (3) a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative certifies to the Administrative Agent compliance with preceding clauses (1) and (2); provided, further, that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of any of the foregoing;

(c) subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted pursuant to Section 7.02(d), (e), (f), (g), (k) (solely with respect to Indebtedness permitted by Sections 7.01(i), (l), (m) and (p) (to the extent such Indebtedness is secured by Section 7.02(u))), (l), (m), (n), (o)(i), (p), (q), (r), (u), (x), (y), (bb), (cc), (dd) (solely to the extent securing any Cash or Cash Equivalents or any other property that does not constitute Collateral), (ee) and (gg); and

162

(d) enter into subordination, intercreditor and/or similar agreements with respect to Indebtedness that is (i) required to be subordinated hereunder and/or (ii) secured by Liens, and which Indebtedness contemplates an intercreditor, subordination or collateral trust agreement.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Trustee’s authority to release or subordinate its interest (or the Administrative Agent’s authority to instruct the Collateral Trustee to release or subordinate its interest) in particular types or items of property, or the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Article IX and the Intercreditor Agreement. In each case as specified in this Article IX but subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent will instruct the Collateral Trustee to (and each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to instruct the Collateral Trustee to), at the Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Article IX.

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee are authorized to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement (including as provided in Section 10.20) and any other intercreditor agreement contemplated hereby with respect to Indebtedness that is (i) required or permitted to be subordinated hereunder and/or (ii) secured by Liens and which Indebtedness contemplates an intercreditor, subordination or collateral trust agreement (any such other intercreditor agreement, an “Additional Agreement”), and the parties hereto acknowledge that the Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Agreement is binding upon them. Each Lender (a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Agreement and (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Trustee to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Agreement and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations to the provisions thereof. The foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to the Secured Parties to extend credit to the Borrowers and such Secured Parties are intended third-party beneficiaries of such provisions and the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and/or any Additional Agreement.

To the extent the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrowers (and without limiting their obligation to do so), the Lenders will reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee and any of their respective Affiliates in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Share for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates in performing its duties hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Trustee’s or such Affiliate’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

Section 9.02 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable Laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any withholding tax applicable to such payment. If any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason, or the Administrative Agent has paid over to the applicable Governmental Authority applicable withholding tax relating to a payment to a Lender but no deduction has been made from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties, additions to tax or interest and together with any and all expenses incurred, unless such amounts have been indemnified by any Borrower or other Loan Party. 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

163

owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.02. The agreements in this Section 9.02 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

Section 10.02 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other 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 any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan

165

Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 10.02(b), 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, to the extent permitted by law, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

(b) Subject to clauses (A) and (B) below, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified, except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower Representative and the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document (other than any such waiver, amendment or modification to effectuate any modification thereto expressly contemplated by the terms of such other Loan Documents), pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing:

(A) solely with the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (but without the necessity of obtaining the consent of the Required Lenders), any such agreement may:

(1) increase the Commitment or Additional Commitment of such Lender (other than with respect to any Incremental Revolving Facility pursuant to Section 2.14 in respect of which such Lender has agreed to be an Additional Lender); it being understood that no amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any condition precedent, representation, warranty, covenant, Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments or Additional Commitments shall constitute an increase of any Commitment or Additional Commitment of such Lender;

(2) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or any amount due on any Loan Installment Date;

(3) extend the scheduled final maturity of any Loan or postpone any Loan Installment Date or the date of any scheduled payment of interest or fees payable hereunder;

(4) reduce the rate of interest (other than to waive any obligations of the Borrowers to pay interest at the default rate of interest under Section 2.08(a)) or the amount of any fees owed to such Lender; it being understood that any change in any ratio used in the calculation of any interest or fees due hereunder (including any component definition thereof) shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fees hereunder;

(5) extend the expiry date of such Lender’s Commitment or Additional Commitment; it being understood that no amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any condition precedent, representation, warranty, covenant, Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments or Additional Commitments shall constitute an extension of any Commitment or Additional Commitment of any Lender; and

(6) amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.18(a) (with respect to pro rata allocation among Lenders), 2.18(b), 2.18(c) of this Agreement in a manner that would by its terms alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby and Section 8.04 of this Agreement in a manner that would by its terms alter the priority provided for therein (except in connection with transactions permitted under Section 2.14, 2.15, 8.04, 10.02(c) or 10.05(g) or as otherwise provided in this Section 10.02); and

166

(B) no such agreement shall:

(1) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definitions of “Required Lenders” to reduce any of the voting percentages required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the consent of each Lender;

(2) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Lien granted pursuant to the Loan Documents (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents, including pursuant to Article VIII or the Intercreditor Agreement), without the prior written consent of each Lender; provided such release shall not require the consent of Cash Management Banks;

(3) release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees under the Loan Guaranty (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents, including pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement), without the prior written consent of each Lender; provided such release shall not require the consent of Cash Management Banks; or

(4) change the currency in which any Loan is denominated or the currency of funding or payment of any Loan without the consent of each affected Lender;

provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Required Revolving Lenders may amend, waive or otherwise modify Sections 7.16 and 8.03 and the defined terms used solely for purposes of Sections 7.16 and 8.03 or waive any Default or Event of Default resulting from a breach of Sections 7.16 and 8.03 without the consent of any Lenders other than the Required Revolving Lenders.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended:

(i) with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans to permit the refinancing or replacement of all or any portion of the outstanding Term Loans, Extended Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans or then-existing Replacement Term Loans under the applicable Class (such loans, the “Replaced Term Loans”) with one or more replacement term loans hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”) pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that:

(A) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Replaced Term Loans, plus the amount of accrued interest and premium thereon and underwriting discounts, fees, commissions and expenses associated therewith,

(B) such Replacement Term Loans have a final maturity date equal to or later than the final maturity date of, and have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity equal to or greater than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of, such Replaced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing,

(C) the Replacement Term Loans shall be pari passu or junior in right of payment and pari passu or junior in right of security with the remaining portion of the relevant Term Loans, Extended Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans or other then-existing Replacement Term Loans (provided that if pari passu or junior as to payment or Collateral, such Replacement Term Loans shall be subject to an intercreditor agreement on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative), or be unsecured,

167

(D) if any such Replacement Term Loans are secured, they shall not be secured by any assets other than the Collateral,

(E) if any such Replacement Term Loans are guaranteed, they shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than one or more Loan Parties,

(F) any Replacement Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments in respect of the Term Loans (and any other Incremental Term Loans, Extended Term Loans or Replacement Term Loans then subject to ratable repayment requirements), in each case as agreed by the Borrower Representative and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans,

(G) such Replacement Term Loans shall have pricing (including interest, fees and premiums) and, subject to preceding clause (F), optional prepayment and redemption terms as may be agreed to by the Borrower Representative and the lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans,

(H) no Default under Section 8.01(a), 8.01(f) or 8.01(g) or Event of Default shall exist immediately prior to or after giving effect to the effectiveness of such replacement, and

(I) the other terms and conditions of such Replacement Term Loans (excluding pricing, interest, fees, rate floors, premiums, optional prepayment or redemption terms, security and maturity date, subject to preceding clauses (B) through (G)) shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower Representative) to the lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than those applicable to the Replaced Term Loans (other than any covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date (in each case, as of the date of incurrence of such Replacement Term Loans)) or shall be on then current market terms for such type of Indebtedness, and

(ii) with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Revolving Facility (as defined below) to permit the refinancing or replacement of all or any portion of any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments or commitments under any existing Replacement Revolving Facility under the applicable Class (a “Replaced Revolving Facility”) with a replacement revolving facility hereunder (a “Replacement Revolving Facility”) pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that:

(A) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Revolving Facility shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Replaced Revolving Facility, plus the amount of accrued interest and premium thereon, any committed but undrawn amounts and underwriting discounts, fees, commissions and expenses associated therewith,

(B) no Replacement Revolving Facility shall have a final maturity date (or require commitment reductions) prior to the final maturity date of such Replaced Revolving Facility at the time of such refinancing,

(C) the Replacement Revolving Facility shall be pari passu or junior in right of payment and pari passu or junior in right of security, or junior thereto with the remaining portion of the relevant revolving commitments (provided that if pari passu or junior as to payment or Collateral, such Replacement Revolving Facility shall be subject to an intercreditor agreement on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative and may be, at the option of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative, documented in a separate agreement or agreements), or be unsecured,

168

(D) if any such Replacement Revolving Facility is secured, it shall not be secured by any assets other than the Collateral,

(E) if any such Replacement Revolving Facility is guaranteed, it shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than one or more Loan Parties,

(F) any such Replacement Revolving Facility shall be subject to the same “ratability” provisions applicable to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and Extended Revolving Loans provided for in the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 2.15(a), mutatis mutandis, to the same extent as if fully set forth herein,

(G) such Replacement Revolving Facilities shall have pricing (including interest, fees and premiums) and, subject to preceding clause (F), optional prepayment and redemption terms as may be agreed to by the Borrower Representative and the lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Facilities,

(H) no Default under Section 8.01(a), 8.01(f) or 8.01(g) or Event of Default shall exist immediately prior to or after giving effect to the effectiveness of such replacement, and

(I) the other terms and conditions of such Replacement Revolving Facility (excluding pricing, interest, fees, rate floors, premiums, optional prepayment or redemption terms, security and maturity date, subject to preceding clauses (B) through (G)) shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower Representative) to the lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Facility than those applicable to the Replaced Revolving Facility (other than any covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date (in each case, as of the date of incurrence of such Replacement Revolving Facility)) or shall be on then-current market terms for such type of Indebtedness, and the Replaced Revolving Facility commitments shall be terminated, all Loans outstanding thereunder and all fees in connection therewith shall be paid in full, on the date such Replacement Revolving Facility is issued, incurred or obtained;

provided, further, that, in respect of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate and Debt Fund Affiliate shall (x) be permitted (without Administrative Agent consent) to provide such Replacement Term Loans, it being understood that in connection with such Replacement Term Loans, any such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate or Debt Fund Affiliate, as applicable, shall be subject to the restrictions applicable to such Persons under Section 10.05 as if such Replacement Term Loans were Term Loans and (y) Debt Fund Affiliates (but not Non-Debt Fund Affiliates) may provide any Replacement Revolving Facility.

Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be amended by the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and the lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans or the Replacement Revolving Facility, as applicable, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Replacement Term Loans or the Replacement Revolving Facility, as applicable, incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the loans and commitments subject thereto as a separate “tranche” and “Class” of Loans, Commitments and Additional Commitments hereunder). The Borrowers shall extend the opportunity to refinance or replace the then outstanding Loans and/or Commitments under the applicable Class to all applicable Lenders on a pro rata basis pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment and in accordance with this Section 10.02(d). It is understood that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of Replacement Term Loans or any Replacement Revolving Facility may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Replacement Term Loans or Replacement Revolving Facility.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.02 or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (i) the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent may,

169

without the input or consent of any other Lender (other than the relevant Lenders (including Additional Lenders) providing Loans under such Sections), effect amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary in the reasonable opinion of the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent to effect the provisions of Section 2.14, 2.15 or 10.02(d) (or any other provision specifying that any waiver, amendment or modification may be made with only the consent or approval of the Administrative Agent) and (ii) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative have jointly identified any ambiguity, mistake, defect, inconsistency, obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature or any necessary or desirable technical change, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative shall be permitted to amend such provision; provided that, in the case of this clause (ii), the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Lenders of such amendment and the Required Lenders shall not have objected in writing to such amendment within five Business Days of notice thereof.

Section 10.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Arranger, the Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the actual reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of outside counsel to all such Persons taken as a whole and, if necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant material jurisdiction to such Persons, taken as a whole) in connection with the syndication and distribution (including via the Internet or through a service such as IntraLinks) of the Credit Facility, the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents and related documentation, including in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of any Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby shall be consummated, but only to the extent such amendments, modifications or waivers were requested by the Borrower Representative to be prepared) and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the actual reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of outside counsel to all such Persons taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel to all affected Persons, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant material jurisdiction to such Persons, taken as a whole, and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional local counsel to all affected Persons, taken as a whole) in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 10.03, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder. Other than to the extent required to be paid on the Closing Date, all amounts due under this Section 10.03(a) shall be payable by the Borrowers within 30 days of receipt of an invoice relating thereto, setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail and together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement requests.

(b) The Borrowers shall indemnify each Arranger, the Administrative Agent and 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 related expenses (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the actual reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to all Indemnitees taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant material jurisdiction to all Indemnitees, taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional local counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (except for any Taxes (which shall be governed by Section 3.01), other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim), (ii) the use or the proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans, (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by any Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates) or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release or threat of Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, to or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary, or any Environmental Liability; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or

170

related expenses (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any Affiliate of such Indemnitee or, to the extent such judgment finds such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to have resulted from such Indemnitee’s material breach of the Loan Documents or (ii) arise out of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought by such Indemnitee (or its Related Parties) against another Indemnitee (or its Related Parties) (other than any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought by or against the Administrative Agent or any Arranger, acting in its capacity as the Administrative Agent or as an Arranger) that does not involve any act or omission of the Sponsor, Parent, any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Each Indemnitee shall be obligated to refund or return any and all amounts paid by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 10.03(b) to such Indemnitee for any fees, expenses, or damages to the extent such Indemnitee is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms hereof. All amounts due under this Section 10.03(b) shall be payable by the Borrowers within 30 days (x) after written demand thereof, in the case of any indemnification obligations and (y) in the case of reimbursement of costs and expenses, after receipt of an invoice relating thereto, setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail and together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement requests; provided, further, that the Loan Parties shall not be liable for any settlement entered into by any Indemnified Person without the Borrower Representative’s written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided, however, if at any time such Indemnified Person shall have requested in writing in accordance with this Agreement that any the Borrower Representative reimburse such Indemnified Person for legal or other expenses in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any proceeding that is covered under this Section 10.03, the Loan Parties shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without the Loan Parties’ written consent if (x) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Borrower Representative of such written request for reimbursement for an expense in connection with the matter related to the settlement that is covered under this Section 10.03 and (y) the Loan Parties shall not have reimbursed such Indemnified Person in accordance with such written request prior to the date of such settlement).

Section 10.04 Waiver of Claim. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party to this Agreement shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto or any Related Party thereof, 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, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof, except, in the case of a claim by any Indemnitee against the Borrowers, to the extent such damages would otherwise be subject to indemnification pursuant to the terms of Section 10.03.

Section 10.05 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 under Section 7.07, the Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrowers 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 (any attempted assignment or transfer not complying with the terms of this Section shall be null and void). 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 Section 10.05(c)) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 10.05(b)(ii) 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 the Loans or Additional Commitments added pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.15 or 10.02(d) at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A) the Borrower Representative; provided that the Borrower Representative shall have been deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after receiving written notice thereof; provided, further, that no consent of the Borrower Representative

171

shall be required (x) for an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or any Arranger (or any Affiliate thereof), (y) if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), 8.01(f) or 8.01(g) (solely with respect to the Borrowers) has occurred and is continuing, for any assignment to any other Eligible Assignee or (z) prior to the completion of primary syndication, for an assignment to any Eligible Assignee approved by the Sponsor;

(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans or commitments of any Class, the principal amount of Loans or commitments of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent and determined on an aggregate basis in the event of concurrent assignments to Related Funds or by Related Funds (as defined below)) shall not be less than (i) $1,000,000 or €1,000,000 in the case of Term Loans and (ii) $5,000,000 or €5,000,000 in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, in each case, unless each of the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually), and shall pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); and

(D) the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver on or prior to the effective date of such assignment, to the Administrative Agent (1) an Administrative Questionnaire and (2) any forms required under Section 3.01.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 10.05(b)(iv), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Eligible 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 Sections 3.01, 3.05, 3.06 and 10.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring on or prior to the effective date of such assignment and subject to its obligations thereunder and under Section 10.13). If any such assignment by a Lender holding a Note hereunder occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder to such Lender, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender such Note to the Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrowers shall issue and deliver a new Note, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.

172

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, 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 their respective successors and assigns, and the commitment of, and principal amount of and interest on the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrowers’ obligations in respect of such Loans. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower and any Lender (but only as to its own holdings), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 10.05(b)(iv) shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2), and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, the Eligible Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and tax certifications required by Section 10.05(b)(ii)(D)(2) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 10.05(b), if applicable, and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 10.05(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly 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 Section 10.05(b)(v).

(vi) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (A) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that the amount of its commitments, and the outstanding balances of its Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption; (B) except as set forth in clause (A) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Parent, any Borrower or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by the Parent, any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (C) such assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee, legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (D) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 5.04(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(b) or 6.01(c), as applicable, and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (E) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (F) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (G) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. The assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any representation of an assigned Lender in the applicable Assignment and Assumption and the parties acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for, or obligation to investigate, whether such representations are true and correct.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than to any Disqualified Institution, any natural Person or, other than with respect to participations to Debt Fund Affiliates (any such participations to Debt Fund Affiliates being subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.05(g)), the Investors, Parent, any Borrower and its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates) (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 the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such

173

Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, 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 this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; 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 (x) clause (A) to the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that directly and adversely affects the Loans or commitments in which such Participant has an interest and (y) clause (B) to the first proviso to Section 10.02(b). Subject to Section 10.05(c)(ii), the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.05 and 3.06 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.05(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12(b) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.05 or 3.06 than the applicable 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 Representative’s prior written consent expressly acknowledging such Participant may receive a greater benefit. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 3.08 and that it is subject to, and will comply with, Section 9.02 as though it were a Lender.

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain at one of its offices a copy of a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Participant and their respective successors and assigns, and principal amount of and interest on the Loans (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 any Participant’s interest in any Additional Commitment, Loan or any other obligation under any Loan Document) to any Person except (i) to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Additional Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations or (ii) if compelled by order of the court or other legal process. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any 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 at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (other than to any Disqualified Institution or natural person) to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 10.05 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no 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) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC 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 SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment or Additional 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 (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 3.01, 3.05 or 3.06) and no SPC shall be entitled to any greater amount under Section 2.08, 3.04 or 3.05 or

174

any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that the Granting Lender would have been entitled to receive, (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender) and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes including approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Loan Documents, remain the Lender of record hereunder. 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 SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the U.S. or any state thereof; provided that (i) in the case of the Borrowers, such SPC’s Granting Lender is in compliance in all material respects with its obligations to the Borrowers hereunder and (ii) each Lender designating any SPC hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such SPC during such period of forbearance. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.05, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower Representative or 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 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 SPC.

(f) (i) No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Borrower Representative has consented to such assignment in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Institution”), (x) such assignee shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and (y) the execution by the Borrower Representative of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment in violation of this Section 10.05(f)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this Section 10.05(f) shall apply.

(ii) If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Institution without the Borrower Representative’s prior written consent in violation of Section 10.05(f)(i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, the Borrower Representative may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Revolving Credit Commitment of such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of the applicable Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such Revolving Credit Commitment, (B) in the case of outstanding Term Loans held by Disqualified Institutions, purchase or prepay such Term Loan by paying the lesser of (x) par and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such Term Loans, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and/or (C) require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 10.05), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lesser of (x) par and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder; provided that in the case of clauses (A) and (B), the Borrower Representative shall be liable to the relevant Disqualified Institution under Section 3.06 if any Eurocurrency Rate Loan owing to such Disqualified Institution is repaid or purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto.

175

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Term Loans to an Affiliated Lender on a non-pro rata basis (A) through Dutch Auctions open to all applicable Lenders on a pro rata basis or (B) through open market purchases, in each case with respect to clauses (A) and (B), without the consent of the Administrative Agent; provided that:

(i) any Term Loans acquired by Parent, the Borrowers or any of their respective subsidiaries shall be retired and cancelled immediately upon the acquisition thereof; provided that upon any such retirement and cancellation of Indebtedness, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans or Additional Term Loans, as applicable, shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans or Additional Term Loans so retired and cancelled, and each principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.07 shall be reduced pro rata by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans so cancelled;

(ii) any Term Loans or Additional Term Loans acquired by any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate may (but shall not be required to) be contributed to Parent, the Borrowers or any of their subsidiaries for purposes of cancellation of such Indebtedness (it being understood that such Term Loans shall be retired and cancelled immediately upon such contribution); provided that upon such cancellation of Indebtedness, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall be deemed reduced, as of the date of such contribution, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so contributed and cancelled, and each principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.07 shall be reduced pro rata by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans so contributed and cancelled;

(iii) the relevant Affiliated Lender and assigning Lender shall have executed an Assignment and Assumption, which shall include a customary “big boy” disclaimer and which shall include a representation on which the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may conclusively rely that the assignee is not a Disqualified Institution;

(iv) each Lender participating in any assignment to Affiliated Lenders acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (A) the Affiliated Lenders may have, and later may come into possession of Excluded Information, (B) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Affiliated Lenders or any of their Subsidiaries, or Parent, the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any other Related Parties, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information, (C) none of the Affiliated Lenders or any of their Subsidiaries, or Parent, the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to make any representation that it is not in possession of Excluded Information, (D) none of the Affiliated Lenders or any of their Subsidiaries, or Parent, the Borrowers or their respective Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any other Related Parties shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the Affiliated Lenders and any of their Subsidiaries, and Parent, the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and any other Related Parties, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information and (E) that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the other Lenders;

(v) after giving effect to such assignment and to all other assignments to all Affiliated Lenders, the aggregate principal amount of any Class of Term Loans then held by all Affiliated Lenders shall not exceed 25.0% of the aggregate principal amount of any Class of Term Loans then outstanding (after giving effect to any substantially simultaneous cancellations thereof) (the “Affiliated Lender Cap”) and the number of Affiliated Lenders shall not exceed five at any time; provided that each of the parties hereto agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred or suffered by any Person in connection with any compliance or non-compliance with this Section 10.05(g)(v) or any purported assignment exceeding such percentage (it being understood and agreed that the cap set forth in this Section 10.05(g)(v) is intended to apply to any Loans made available by Affiliated Lenders by means other than formal assignment (e.g., as a result of an acquisition of another Lender (other than a Debt Fund Affiliate) by an Affiliated Lender or the provision of Additional Term Loans by an Affiliated Lender); provided, further, except as specifically set forth in Section 10.05(f), that to the extent that any assignment to any Affiliated Lender would result in the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans and Additional Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders exceeding the Affiliated Lender Cap (after giving effect to any substantially simultaneous cancellations thereof), the assignment of the relevant excess amount shall be automatically cancelled;

176

(vi) in connection with any assignment effected pursuant to a Dutch Auction and/or open market purchase conducted by Parent, the Borrowers or any of its subsidiaries, (A) the relevant Person may not use the proceeds of any Revolving Facility to fund such assignment and (B) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(vii) in connection with each assignment pursuant to this Section 10.05(g), the Administrative Agent shall have been provided written notice in connection with each assignment to an Affiliated Lender or a Person that upon effectiveness of such assignment would constitute an Affiliated Lender with respect to the identity of such Affiliated Lender and the amount of the Loans being assigned thereto;

(viii) by its acquisition of Term Loans, an Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have acknowledged and agreed that:

(A) the Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender shall be disregarded in both the numerator and denominator in the calculation of Required Lenders or any other Lender vote (or the Term Loans and Additional Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to be voted pro rata along with the other Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders), except that such Affiliated Lender shall have the right to vote (and the Term Loans and Additional Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender shall not be so disregarded) with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action that requires the vote of all Lenders or all Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby, as the case may be; provided that no amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action shall (1) disproportionately affect such Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender as compared to other Lenders of the same Class that are not Affiliated Lenders or (2) deprive any Affiliated Lender of its share of any payments which the Lenders are entitled to share on a pro rata basis hereunder, in each case without the consent of such Affiliated Lender;

(B) Affiliated Lenders, solely in their capacity as an Affiliated Lender, will not be entitled to (i) attend (including by telephone) or participate in any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender or among Lenders to which the Loan Parties or their representatives are not invited or (ii) receive any information or material prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among the Administrative Agent and one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Loan Party or its representatives (and in any case, other than the right to receive notices of Borrowings, prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Term Loans or Additional Term Loans required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II); and

(C) Affiliated Lenders shall waive any right to bring any action in connection with such Loans against either the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, in their capacities as such, except with respect to claims of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Term Loans to a Debt Fund Affiliate, and any Debt Fund Affiliate may, from time to time, purchase Term Loans (x) on a non-pro rata basis through Dutch Auctions open to all Lenders or (y) on a non-pro rata basis through open market purchases without the consent of the Administrative Agent, in each case, without the necessity of meeting the requirements set forth in (or being subject to the restriction of) clauses (i) through (viii) of this Section 10.05(g); provided that the Term Loans of any Debt Fund Affiliates shall not account for more than 49.9% of the amounts included in determining whether the Required Lenders have (A) consented to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph, any plan of reorganization pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document. Any Term Loans or Additional Term Loans acquired by any Debt Fund Affiliate may (but shall not be required to) be contributed to Parent, any Borrower or any of its subsidiaries for purposes of cancellation of such Indebtedness (it

177

being understood that such Term Loans or Additional Term Loans so contributed shall be retired and cancelled immediately upon such contribution); provided that upon such cancellation of Indebtedness, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans or Additional Term Loans shall be deemed reduced, as of the date of such contribution, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans or Additional Term Loans so contributed and cancelled, and each principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.07 shall be reduced pro rata by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans so contributed and cancelled.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, each Affiliated Lender hereby agrees that, if a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law shall be commenced by or against any Borrower or any other Loan Party at a time when such Lender is an Affiliated Lender, such Affiliated Lender irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent to vote on behalf of such Affiliated Lender with respect to the Term Loans or Additional Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender in any manner in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, unless the Administrative Agent instructs such Affiliated Lender to vote, in which case such Affiliated Lender shall vote with respect to the Term Loans or Additional Term Loans held by it as the Administrative Agent directs; provided that (a) such Affiliated Lender shall be entitled to vote in accordance with its sole discretion (and not in accordance with the direction of the Administrative Agent) and (b) the Administrative Agent shall not be entitled to vote on behalf of such Affiliated Lender, in each case, in connection with any matter to the extent any such matter proposes to treat any Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a manner that is different than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of any Borrower. Each Affiliated Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Affiliated Lender (solely in respect of Term Loans or Additional Term Loans and participations therein and not in respect of any other claim or status such Affiliated Lender may otherwise have), from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of (but subject to the limitations set forth in) this paragraph.

Each of the Parent Companies, the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers agree that none of the Administrative Agent or its Related Parties shall have any responsibility or liability with respect to monitoring or enforcing the Disqualified Institution list or assignments to Disqualified Institutions.

In case of assignment, transfer or novation by a Lender to a new lender or a Participant, of all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Lenders and the new lender or Participant shall agree that, for the purposes of Article 1278 and/or Article 1281 of the Luxembourg Civil Code (to the extent applicable), any assignment, amendment, transfer and/or novation of any kind permitted under, and made in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement or any agreement referred to herein to which a Luxembourg Loan Party is a party (including any Collateral Document), any security created or guarantee given under the Agreement or in relation to the Agreement shall be preserved and continue in full force and effect to the benefit of the new lender or Participant.

In addition to the restrictions on assignments set forth above, each Lender agrees that it shall not assign any Initial Term Loans hereunder unless such Lender assigns (or causes one of its Affiliates to assign) (x) in the case of an assignment of an Initial Dollar Term Loan, an equal pro rata portion of the Initial U.S. Borrower Dollar Loans and Initial German Borrower Dollar Term Loans held by such Lender and its Affiliates to the applicable assignee and (y) in the case of an assignment of an Initial Euro Term Loan, an equal pro rata portion of the Initial Erste Euro Term Loans and Initial GmbH Euro Term Loans held by such Lender and its Affiliates to the applicable assignee.

Section 10.06 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 this Agreement or any other 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 Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17, 10.03, 10.06 and 10.13 and Article VIII

178

shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the occurrence of the Termination Date or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof but in each case, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement.

Section 10.07 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 and the Fee Letter and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire agreement 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 Parent, the Borrowers, the Subsidiaries of the Borrowers party hereto and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, 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 permitted assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or by email as a “.pdf” or “.tif” attachment shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.08 Severability. To the extent permitted by law, any provision of any Loan Document 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 thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.09 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of its respective Affiliates 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) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Affiliate (including by branches and agencies of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any Guarantor against any of and all the Secured Obligations held by the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured. Any applicable Lender or Affiliate shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of such set-off or application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section. The rights of each Lender, Administrative Agent and Affiliate under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender, Administrative Agent or Affiliate may have.

Section 10.13 Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Arranger agrees (and each Lender agrees to cause its SPC, if any) to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information (as defined below), except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors (or equivalent managers), officers, employees, independent auditors, or other agents, experts and advisors, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (collectively, the “Representatives”) on a “need to know” basis solely in connection with the transactions completed hereby and who are informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and are or have been advised of their obligation to keep such Confidential Information of this type confidential; provided that such Person shall be responsible for its Affiliates’ and their Representatives’ compliance with this Section 10.13, (b) upon the demand or request of any regulatory (including

180

any self-regulatory body, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), governmental or administrative authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Affiliates (in which case such Person shall except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any Governmental Authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, to the extent practicable and permitted by law, (i) inform the Borrower Representative promptly in writing in advance thereof and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any such information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment), (c) to the extent compelled by legal process in, or reasonably necessary to, the defense of such legal, judicial or administrative proceeding, in any legal, judicial or administrative proceeding or otherwise as required by applicable requirements of Law, rule or regulation (in which case such Person shall (i) to the extent practicable and permitted by law, inform the Borrower Representative promptly in writing in advance thereof and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any such information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment), (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (e) to any other party to this Agreement, (f) subject to an acknowledgment and agreement by such recipient that such information is being disseminated on a confidential basis (on substantially the terms set forth in this Section 10.13 or as is otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower Representative), to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, including any SPC (in each case other than a Disqualified Institution), (ii) any pledgee referred to in Section 9.05 or (iii) any actual or prospective, direct or indirect contractual counterparty (or its advisors) to any Derivative Transaction (including any credit default swap) or similar derivative product relating to the Loan Parties and their obligations subject to acknowledgment and agreement by such recipient that such information is being disseminated on a confidential basis (on substantially the terms set forth in this Section 10.13 or as is otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower Representative), (g) with the prior written consent of the Borrower Representative, (h) to ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ or S&P in connection with obtaining ratings for the Borrowers or the Credit Facility, (i) to the extent applicable and reasonably necessary or advisable, for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense, (j) on a confidential basis to (x) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Credit Facilities hereunder or (y) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the facilities or market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the Loan Documents and (k) to the extent such Confidential Information (X) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.13 by such Person, its Affiliates or their respective Representatives or (Y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.13 from a source other than a Loan Party.

Should any Secured Party (other than the Collateral Trustee) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof; and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Trustee or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

Section 10.19 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

LOAN GUARANTY

Section 12.01 Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, and absolutely and unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties the full and prompt payment upon the failure of the Borrowers (and/or other Subsidiaries party to Secured Hedge Agreements in the case of such Subsidiary’s Secured Hedging Obligations) to do so, when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured Obligations (collectively the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal (subject to any applicable government approvals). If any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations becomes due and payable hereunder, each Guarantor, unconditionally and irrevocably, promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations to the Administrative Agent and/or the other Secured Parties, on demand, together with any and all expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties in collecting any of the Guaranteed Obligations, to the extent reimbursable in accordance with Section 10.03. Each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Secured Parties whether or not due or payable by the Borrowers upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in Section 8.01(f) or 8.01(g), and in such event, irrevocably and unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Secured Parties, on demand, in lawful money of the U.S.

Section 12.02 Guaranty of Payment. This Loan Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Guarantor waives any right to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to ▇▇▇ the Borrowers, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (each, an “Obligated Party”), or otherwise to enforce its rights in respect of any Collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Administrative Agent may enforce this Loan Guaranty upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

Section 12.03 No Discharge or Diminishment of Loan Guaranty.

(a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional, irrevocable and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Obligated Party, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Obligated Party; (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Guarantor may have at any time against any Obligated Party, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions; (v) any direction as to application of payments by any Borrower or by any other party; (vi) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking; (viii) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by any Borrower or (ix) any payment made to any Secured Party on the Guaranteed Obligations which any such Secured Party repays to the Borrowers pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each Guarantor waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding.

(b) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder or as expressly permitted by the Intercreditor Agreement, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Obligated Party, of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.

184

(c) Further, the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of the Borrowers for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party with respect to any Collateral securing any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement).

Section 12.04 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder or as expressly permitted by the Intercreditor Agreement, each Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower or any other Guarantor or arising out of the disability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any other party or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, including notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Loan Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Obligated Party, or any other Person, including any right (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require any Secured Party to (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Secured Party’s power whatsoever. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent permitted by applicable law), accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any Collateral securing all or a part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and the Administrative Agent may, at its election, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Obligated Party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty except as otherwise provided in the Intercreditor Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Obligated Party or any security.

Section 12.05 Authorization. The Guarantors authorize the Secured Parties without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder (except as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement), from time to time to:

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and this Loan Guaranty shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

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

185

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any of the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, the Borrowers, other Loan Parties or other obligors;

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

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of the Borrowers to the Secured Parties regardless of what liability or liabilities of the Borrowers remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Hedge Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein or therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Hedge Agreement or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or

(h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of the Guarantors from their respective liabilities under this Loan Guaranty.

Section 12.06 Rights of Subrogation. No Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any Loan Party in respect of this Loan Guaranty until the occurrence of the Termination Date.

Section 12.07 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Loan Guaranty with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the other Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.

Section 12.08 Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrowers’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Guarantor assumes and incurs under this Loan Guaranty, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Secured Party shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

Section 12.09 Maximum Liability. It is the desire and intent of the Guarantors and the Secured Parties that this Loan Guaranty shall be enforced against the Guarantors to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. The provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, Federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s liability under this Loan Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantors or the Secured Parties, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder; provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

186

Section 12.10 Limitation of Liability for German Guarantors.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, if and to the extent that the guaranty pursuant to this Article XII or any liability, indemnity or other payment obligation under the Loan Documents, of a German Guarantor established as a limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung – GmbH) (the “German Guarantor Guaranty”), guarantees or secures liabilities owed by a direct or indirect shareholder of the German Guarantor or by any subsidiary of such direct or indirect shareholder (other than the German Guarantor itself and its subsidiaries), the enforcement of the German Guarantor Guaranty shall be limited to an amount which would not have the effect of reducing the German Guarantor’s net assets (Reinvermögen) (the “Net Assets”) to an amount of less than its stated share capital (Stammkapital) or, if the Net Assets are already an amount of less than its stated share capital, of causing such amount to be further reduced (a “Capital Impairment”).

(b) The amount of the Net Assets shall be determined in accordance with the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch, the “HGB”) consistently applied by the relevant German Guarantor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluss) according to section 42 of the German Limited Liability Company Act (Gesetz betreffend die Gesellschaften mit beschränkter Haftung, the “GmbHG”) and sections 242, 264 of the HGB in the previous years; provided that:

(i) any amounts not available for distribution to the shareholders of the German Guarantor in accordance with section 268 para. 8 of the HGB shall be deducted when calculating the amount of the Net Assets of the German Guarantor;

(ii) the amount of any increase of the stated share capital (Stammkapital) of such German Guarantor carried out after the date of this Agreement (i) that has been effected in violation of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to the extent that it is not fully paid up, provided that the corresponding claim against its shareholders is not accounted for as an asset in the balance sheet of the German Guarantor at the time of enforcement of the German Guarantor Guaranty, shall be deducted from the relevant stated share capital (Stammkapital) of the German Guarantor;

(iii) loans and other liabilities incurred by such German Guarantor in violation of any of the Loan Documents; and

(iv) any loans provided to the relevant the German Guarantor by a member of the Group shall be disregarded in calculating the liabilities of that German Guarantor if such loans are made (A) by a direct or indirect shareholder of the relevant German Guarantor or (B) any member of the Group, but only if and to the extent a waiver (Erlass) of the loan provided to the relevant German Guarantor (Y) would not result in that member of the Group or its management breaching any obligations under applicable law, and (Z) is otherwise permissible and possible (e.g. it could not be permissible and possible where the relevant member of the Group is itself in administration or cannot dispose of the relevant receivable because it is subject to security).

(c) In a situation where the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties would, but for this Section 12.10, be entitled to and seek to enforce the German Guarantor Guaranty, such German Guarantor shall upon demand of the Administrative Agent within three months of such demand being made, and to the extent necessary to discharge its obligations under this German Guarantor Guaranty, realise any and all of its assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value (Buchwert) that is significantly lower than the market value of the asset if such asset is not necessary for its business (nicht betriebsnotwendig) provided that such realisation is legally permitted.

(d) The limitations set out in Section 12.10(a) above shall not apply to any German Guarantor Guaranty for Loans to the extent such Loans are on-lent, or otherwise passed on, to the respective German Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries and are not repaid at the day of a payment demand under the German Guarantor Guaranty.

187

(e) The limitations set out in Section 12.10(a) above shall not apply in case of a Capital Impairment if and to the extent:

(i) a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) or a profit transfer agreement (Gewinnabführungsvertrag) is in place (“besteht”) between the German Guarantor (as a dominated party) and the relevant primary obligor (either directly or indirectly through a chain of domination and/or profit transfer agreements), each within the meaning of section 291 of the German Act on Stock Corporations (Aktiengesetz), with the German Guarantor as dominated entity (beherrschtes Unternehmen) (a “DPTA”) unless the existence of such DPTA does not lead to the inapplicability of Section 30 para.1 sentence 1 GmbHG; or

(ii) the payments by the German Guarantor under the German Guarantor Guaranty are covered by a valuable consideration or recourse claim (vollwertiger Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) against any of its direct or indirect shareholders or the Loan Party for whose liabilities the German Guarantor Guaranty was taken out; or

(iii) the German Guarantor has not abided to any of its obligations pursuant to Section 12.10(c); or

(iv) that they are not necessary for the purposes of protecting the German Guarantor’s managing directors from the risk of personal liability pursuant to section 30 of the GmbHG.

(f) The limitations set out in Section 12.10(a) above shall only apply to amounts demanded under the German Guarantor Guaranty if:

(i) within 15 Business Days (for the purposes of this Section 12.10(f) only, the term “Business Day” shall mean any banking day (Bankarbeitstag) of the German Central Bank (Bundesbank)) following the receipt by the German Guarantor of a payment demand under the German Guarantor Guaranty, such amounts have been confirmed by the managing directors on behalf of such German Guarantor in writing to the Administrative Agent of not being enforceable because of causing a Capital Impairment (taking into account the adjustments set out in Section 12.10(b) above) and such confirmation is supported by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, e.g. interim financial statements (Stichtagsbilanz) and a detailed calculation of its Net Assets (the “Management Determination”); or

(ii) the Administrative Agent disagrees with the Management Determination and notifies the German Guarantor accordingly in writing (the “Contesting Notice”), within 25 Business Days following the receipt by the German Guarantor of such Contesting Notice, such amounts have been determined by a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation appointed by the relevant German Guarantor or any other auditor appointed by the relevant German Guarantor and approved by the Administrative Agent (the “Auditors’ Determination”) of not being enforceable because of causing a Capital Impairment (taking into account the adjustments set out in Section 12.10(b) above). Upon delivery of the Auditors’ Determination the relevant German Guarantor shall promptly pay such additional amounts under the German Guarantor Guaranty that have been demanded but not been paid on the basis of the Management Determination, and that the Auditors’ Determination confirms can be paid without exceeding the limitations set out in Section 12.10(a) above.

(g) If and to the extent that the German Guarantor Guaranty has been enforced without regard to the limitation set forth in clause (a) above because the amount of the available Net Assets pursuant to the Auditors’ Determination is lower than the amount stated in the Management Determination, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall, upon written demand of the relevant German Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, such demand to be made no later than one month after the enforcement of the German Guarantor Guaranty, repay such amounts (if and to the extent already paid to the Collateral Trustee or the other Secured Parties) which exceed the amounts calculated in the Auditors’ Determination as necessary to avoid a Capital Impairment of such German Guarantor provided that the Administrative Agent shall repay such amounts to the extent either not distributed to the other Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, or if already distributed, to the extent such Secured Party has repaid the distributed amount to the Administrative Agent.

188

(h) In addition to the restrictions set out in this Section 12.10, if a German Guarantor demonstrates that, according to decisions of the German Federal Supreme Court (Bundesgerichtshof) or a higher regional court of appeals (Oberlandesgericht), the enforcement of the Guaranty against such German Guarantor would result in personal liability of its managing director(s) for a reimbursement of payments made under the Guaranty (including pursuant to section 64 sentence 3 GmbHG or section 826 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch)), the Administrative Agent shall only be entitled to enforce the Guaranty to the extent possible without the managing directors incurring such liability. In case of a limitation on the enforcement of the German Guarantor Guaranty pursuant to the preceding sentence, the German Guarantor shall take all reasonable measures (including measures pursuant to paragraph (c) above) in order to increase the German Guarantor’s liquidity (Zahlungsfähigkeit) to the extent necessary to satisfy the amounts demanded under the German Guarantor Guaranty.

(i) The provisions in Sections 12.10(a) to (h) above shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any German Guarantor being a limited partnership (Kommanditgesellschaft) with a limited liability company as its general partner (GmbH & Co. KG), provided that any Capital Impairment shall be determined in relation to any of its general partners and the sum of their Net Assets.

(j) Nothing in this Section 12.10 shall limit the enforceability (subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 12.10) legality or validity of the German Guarantor Guaranty nor prevent the Administrative Agent from claiming in court that the provision of any German Guarantor Guaranty and/or demanding payment under any German Guarantor Guaranty does not fall within the scope of any statutory limitations. Neither shall the Administrative Agent’s rights to any remedies it may have against any Guarantor be limited if any statutory limitations are determined by any competent court to be inapplicable. The agreement of the Administrative Agent to abstain from demanding (partial) payment under a German Guarantor Guaranty in accordance with the provisions above shall not constitute a waiver (Verzicht) of any security right granted under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee or a definite defense (Einwendung) of any German Guarantor against any of the secured obligations other than expressly set out herein.

Section 12.11 Contribution. In the event any Guarantor (a “Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this Loan Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any Collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Loan Guaranty, each other Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Guarantor Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Article XII, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Guarantor Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (a) such Non- Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from any Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (b) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Guarantors hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Guarantors from any Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Loan Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the Secured Obligations until the Termination Date. This provision is for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 12.12 Limitation of Liability for Swiss Guarantors.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the obligations of any Swiss Guarantor and the rights of the Lenders under the Loan Documents are subject to the following limitations: If and to the extent that a Swiss Guarantor is liable under any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, for obligations other than its own obligations or obligations of one of its Subsidiaries (i.e. obligations of its direct or indirect parent companies or shareholders, respectively, (upstream security) or sister companies (including any companies held by any of its shareholders) (crossstream security)) (“Swiss Restricted Obligations”) and that complying with such obligations would constitute a repayment of capital (Einlagerückgewähr), a violation of the legally protected reserves (gesetzlich geschützte Reserven) or the payment of a (constructive) dividend (Gewinnausschüttung) by such Swiss Guarantor, the following shall apply:

(a) the aggregate liability of such Swiss Guarantor for Swiss Restricted Obligations shall be limited to the Swiss Available Amount (as defined below) at the time such Swiss Guarantor is required to perform under the Loan Documents, provided that this is a requirement under applicable law at that time and further provided that such limitation shall not free such Swiss Guarantor from its obligations in excess thereof, but merely postpone the performance date therefore until such times as performance is again permitted notwithstanding such limitation;

(b) for the purposes of paragraph (a), “Swiss Available Amount” means the maximum amount of such Swiss Guarantor’s profits and reserves available for distribution to its shareholder(s) under applicable Swiss law, presently being the amount equal to the positive difference between (1) the assets of such Swiss Guarantor and (2) the aggregate of such Swiss Guarantor’s (A) liabilities other than Swiss Restricted Obligations, (B) stated capital, (C) statutory reserves (gesetzliche Reserven) to the extent such reserves must be maintained by mandatory law and (D) any freely disposable equity that has to be blocked for any loans granted by the Swiss Guarantor to a direct or indirect parent company of the Swiss Guarantor or a direct or indirect subsidiary of any parent company, in each case under (A) through (D) to the extent such reserves must be maintained by mandatory law and precedents by the Swiss Federal Supreme Court;

(c) immediately after having been requested to perform Swiss Restricted Obligations under the Loan Documents, the relevant Swiss Guarantor shall:

(i) perform any Swiss Restricted Obligations which are not affected by the above limitations; and

(ii) in respect of any remainder, if and to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent or required under then applicable Swiss law, provide the Administrative Agent with an interim balance sheet audited by the statutory auditors of such Swiss Guarantor setting out the Swiss Available Amount and, immediately thereafter, pay the Swiss Available Amount (less, if required, any Swiss Withholding Tax) to the Administrative Agent to the extent not already covered by (i) above;

(d) in respect of Swiss Restricted Obligations, each Swiss Guarantor shall:

(i) if and to the extent required by applicable law in force at the relevant time:

(A) subject to any applicable double tax treaties, deduct the Swiss Withholding Tax at the rate of thirty five percent (35%) (or such other rate as is in force at that time) from any payment made by it in respect of Swiss Restricted Obligations;

(B) pay any such deduction to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration; and

(C) notify and provide evidence to the Lenders that the Swiss Withholding Tax has been paid to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration; and

(ii) to the extent such deduction is made, not be required to make a gross-up indemnify or otherwise hold harmless the Finance Parties for the deduction of the Swiss Withholding Tax, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents, unless such payment is permitted under

190

the laws of Switzerland then in force. Each Swiss Guarantor shall use its best efforts to ensure that any person which is, as a result of a payment under the Loan Documents, entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax, will, as soon as possible after the deduction of the Swiss Withholding Tax, (x) request a refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax under any applicable law (including double tax treaties) and (y) pay to the Administrative Agent upon receipt any amount so refunded;

(e) each Swiss Guarantor shall, and its parent shall procure that such Swiss Guarantor will, take and cause to be taken all and any other action, including, without limitation, the passing of any shareholders’ resolutions to approve any payment or other performance under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the receipt of any confirmations from such Swiss Guarantor’s auditors, which may be useful or required as a matter of Swiss mandatory law in force at the time it is required to make a payment or perform other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in order to allow a prompt payment and performance of other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document with a minimum of limitations; and

(f) if the enforcement of Swiss Restricted Obligations would be limited due to the effects referred to in this Clause 12.12, then such Swiss Guarantor shall to the extent permitted by applicable law and the relevant Swiss accounting standards and the Loan Documents (A) convert restricted reserves into profits and reserves freely available for the distribution as dividends (B) revalue hidden reserves, (C) write-up or realize any of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets, in case of realization, however, only if such assets are not necessary for such Swiss Guarantor’s business (nicht betriebsnotwendig) and all such other measures necessary or useful to allow the Swiss Guarantor to make the payments agreed hereunder with a minimum of limitations.

Section 12.13 Limitation on Guaranty by Luxembourg Guarantor.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Documents, the aggregate obligations and exposure of a Luxembourg Guarantor in respect of the obligations of a member of the Restricted Group which is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of such Luxembourg Guarantor shall be limited at any time to an aggregate amount not exceeding 95.0% of the greater of:

(i) an amount equal to the sum of the Luxembourg Guarantor’s Net Assets and its subordinated debt (dettes subordonnées) as referred to in the Luxembourg Act of 19 December 2002 on the Register of Commerce and Companies, on Accounting and on Annual Accounts of the Companies, as amended, as reflected in the financial information of the Luxembourg Guarantor available to the Administrative Agent as at the date of this Agreement (or for any future Luxembourg Guarantor its accession as a Guarantor), including, without limitation, its most recently and duly approved financial statements (comptes annuels) and any (unaudited) interim financial statements signed by its board of managers or directors; and

(ii) an amount equal to the sum of the Luxembourg Guarantor’s Net Assets and its subordinated debt (dettes subordonnées) as referred to in the Luxembourg Act of 19 December 2002 on the Register of Commerce and Companies, on Accounting and on Annual Accounts of the Companies, as amended, as reflected in the financial information of the Luxembourg Guarantor available to the Administrative Agent as at the date the guarantee is called , including, without limitation, its most recently and duly approved financial statements (comptes annuels) and any (unaudited) interim financial statements signed by its board of managers or directors.

(b) For this purpose, “Net Assets” shall mean all the assets (actifs) of the Luxembourg Guarantor minus its liabilities (provisions et dettes) as determined in accordance with Luxembourg generally accepted accounting principles (Lux GAAP) or IFRS, as applicable, and the relevant provisions of the Luxembourg Act of 19 December 2002 on the Register of Commerce and Companies, on Accounting and on Annual Accounts of the Companies, as amended.

(c) Should the financial information referred to in clause (a)(i) and (a)(ii) above not be available on the date of this Agreement or on the date the guaranty is called, the Luxembourg Guarantor’s Net Assets will be determined by the Administrative Agent or any other person designated by the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, in accordance with the Luxembourg accounting principles applicable to the Luxembourg Guarantor and at the cost of the Luxembourg Guarantor.

191

The limitation set forth at paragraph (a) above shall not apply to any amounts borrowed under this Agreement and made available, in any form whatsoever, to such Luxembourg Guarantor or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries.

The Luxembourg Guarantor’s obligations under this Article XII (Loan Guaranty) will not extend to include any obligations or liabilities if such inclusion would constitute a breach of the financial assistance prohibitions contained at Article ▇▇-▇ (▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇) ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ on commercial companies of 10 August 1915, as amended.

Section 12.14 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Guarantor under this Article XII is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Guarantors, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

Section 12.15 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under this Loan Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 12.15 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 12.15, or otherwise under this Loan Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 12.15 shall remain in full force and effect so long as any Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder, any Loan or other Obligation (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted and obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements) hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied, or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding (other than Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 12.15 constitute, and this Section 12.15 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 12.16 Loan Guaranty Limitations. With respect to any Guarantor, this Loan Guaranty is subject to any limitations set out in any Joinder Agreement applicable to such Guarantor.
