“Additional Costs” means, with respect to any Loan denominated in an Other Currency, for any Interest Period, (i) the cost as calculated by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Schedule III hereto imputed to each applicable Lender of compliance with the mandatory liquid assets requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and/or the European Central Bank during that Interest Period, expressed as a percentage and (ii) any reserve asset, liquidity or cash margin or other like requirements of any other applicable monetary, regulatory, supervisory or other authority in relation to that Loan, in each case during that Interest Period, expressed as a percentage.

“Adjusted EBITDA” means, with respect to the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, for any applicable period, EBITDA for such period, as adjusted for the pro forma impact of any Permitted Acquisitions or Dispositions of assets during such period, such adjustments to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

$$/BREAK/$$END

“Administrative Agent” is defined in the preamble and includes each other Person, if any, appointed as the successor Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.4.

“Affiliate” of any Person means any other Person which, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such Person. “Control” of a Person means the power, directly or indirectly,

(a) to vote 10% or more of the Capital Securities (on a fully diluted basis) of such Person having ordinary voting power for the election of directors, managing members or general partners (as applicable); or

(b) to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person (whether through ownership of Capital Securities, by contract or otherwise).

“Agreement” means, on any date, the Original Credit Agreement, as amended and restated by the Existing Credit Agreement and as amended and restated hereby, and as the same may be further amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time and in effect on such date.

Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans will take effect as of the opening of business on the date of each change in the Alternate Base Rate. The Administrative Agent will give notice promptly to the Borrowers and the Lenders of changes in the Alternate Base Rate; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the Alternate Base Rate in effect after such change. If for any reason the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) that it is unable to ascertain the Federal Funds Rate for any reason, including the inability or failure of the Administrative Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms hereof, the Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause (b) of the first sentence of this definition, until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist.

“Applicable Margin” means the applicable percentage set forth below corresponding to the relevant Leverage Ratio:

Leverage Ratio	Applicable Margin for LIBO Rate Loans	Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans

The initial Applicable Margin (a) for LIBO Rate Loans shall be 2.00% and (b) for Base Rate Loans shall be 1.00%, in each case, until the first Quarterly Payment Date occurring after the delivery of the Compliance Certificate pursuant to clause (c) of Section 7.1.1 for the first Fiscal Quarter of Fiscal Year 2004. The Leverage Ratio used to compute the Applicable Margin shall be the Leverage Ratio set forth in the Compliance Certificate most recently delivered by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent. Changes in the Applicable Margin resulting from a change in the Leverage Ratio shall become effective upon delivery by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent of a new Compliance Certificate pursuant to

$$/BREAK/$$END

clause (c) of Section 7.1.1. If the Borrowers fail to deliver a Compliance Certificate within 50 days after the end of any Fiscal Quarter (or within 90 days, in the case of the last Fiscal Quarter of the Fiscal Year), the Applicable Margin from and including the 51st (or 91st, as the case may be) day after the end of such Fiscal Quarter to but not including the date the Borrowers deliver to the Administrative Agent a Compliance Certificate shall conclusively equal the highest Applicable Margin computed in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this definition.

“Base Rate” means, at any time, the rate of interest then most recently established by the lender acting as Administrative Agent in its principal office in Charlotte, North Carolina as its prime rate for Dollars loaned in the United States.

In addition, the Borrowers hereby consent and agree that, for purposes of any determination to be made for purposes of Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4, it shall be conclusively assumed that each Lender elected to fund all LIBO Rate Loans by purchasing Dollar deposits in its LIBOR Office’s interbank eurodollar market.

Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, and without further action, each Revolving Loan Lender (other than the Issuer) shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased, to the extent of its Percentage to make Revolving Loans, a participation interest in such Letter of Credit (including the Contingent Liability of the Issuer and the Issuer’s right to receive payment of any Reimbursement Obligation with respect thereto), and such Revolving Loan Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage to make Revolving Loans, be responsible for reimbursing within one Business Day the Issuer for any Disbursement which has not been reimbursed by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.6.3 or which have been required to be returned or disgorged by the Issuer to the Administrative Agent. In addition, such Revolving Loan Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage to make Revolving Loans, be entitled to receive a ratable portion of the Letter of Credit fees payable pursuant to Section 3.3.3 with respect to each Letter of Credit (other than the issuance fees payable to the Issuer of such Letter of Credit pursuant to the last sentence of Section 3.3.3) and of interest payable pursuant to Section 3.2 with respect to any Reimbursement Obligation. To the extent that any Revolving Loan Lender has reimbursed the Issuer for a Disbursement, such Lender shall be entitled to receive its ratable portion of any amounts subsequently received (from the Borrowers or otherwise) in respect of such Disbursement.

$$/BREAK/$$END

SECTION 2.6.2. Disbursements. The Issuer will notify the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly of the presentment for payment of any Letter of Credit issued by the Issuer, together with notice of the date (the “Disbursement Date”) such payment shall be made (each such payment, a “Disbursement”). Subject to the terms and provisions of such Letter of Credit and this Agreement, the Issuer shall make such payment to the beneficiary (or its designee) of such Letter of Credit. Prior to 11:00 a.m. on the first Business Day following the Disbursement Date, the Borrowers will reimburse the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuer, for all amounts which the Issuer has disbursed under such Letter of Credit, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum then in effect for Base Rate Loans (with the then Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans accruing on such amount) pursuant to Section 3.2 for the period from the Disbursement Date through the date of such reimbursement. Without limiting in any way the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any separate application for any Letter of Credit, the Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that they shall be obligated, jointly and severally, to reimburse the Issuer upon each Disbursement of a Letter of Credit, and it shall be deemed to be the obligor for purposes of each such Letter of Credit issued hereunder (whether the account party on such Letter of Credit is any Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor).

SECTION 2.6.3. Reimbursement. The obligation (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) of the Borrowers under Section 2.6.2 to reimburse the Issuer with respect to each Disbursement (including interest thereon), and, upon the failure of the Borrowers to reimburse the Issuer, each Revolving Loan Lender’s obligation under Section 2.6.1 to reimburse the Issuer, shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which such Borrower or such Revolving Loan Lender, as the case may be, may have or have had against the Issuer or any Lender, including any defense based upon the failure of any Disbursement to conform to the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit (if, in the Issuer’s good faith opinion, such Disbursement is determined to be appropriate) or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, that after paying in full its Reimbursement Obligation, in the case of the Borrowers or such Lender has paid its Percentage of such Disbursement, nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, to commence any proceeding against the Issuer for any wrongful Disbursement made by the Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuer.

SECTION 2.6.4. Deemed Disbursements. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Default under Section 8.1.9 or upon notification by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) to the Borrowers of their obligations under this Section 2.6.4, following the occurrence and during the continuation of any other Event of Default,

(a) the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit shall, without demand upon or notice to any Borrower or any other Person, be deemed to have been paid or disbursed by the Issuer of such Letters of Credit (notwithstanding that such amount may not in fact have been paid or disbursed); and

(b) the Borrowers shall be immediately obligated to reimburse the Issuer for the amount deemed to have been so paid or disbursed by the Issuer.

Amounts payable by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.6.4 shall be deposited in immediately available funds with the Administrative Agent and held as collateral security for the Reimbursement Obligations. When all Defaults giving rise to the deemed disbursements under this Section 2.6.4 have been cured or waived the Administrative Agent shall return to the applicable Borrower all amounts then on deposit with the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.6.4 which have not been applied to the satisfaction of the Reimbursement Obligations.

$$/BREAK/$$END

SECTION 2.6.5. Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. Each Borrower, each other Obligor and, to the extent set forth in Section 2.6.1, each Revolving Loan Lender shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. The Issuer (except to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) shall not be responsible for:

(a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged;

(b) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or the proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason;

(c) failure of the beneficiary to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit;

(d) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise; or

(e) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required in order to make a Disbursement under a Letter of Credit.

None of the foregoing shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted to the Issuer or any Revolving Loan Lender hereunder. In furtherance and not in limitation or derogation of any of the foregoing, any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuer in good faith (and not constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct) shall be binding upon each Obligor and each such Secured Party, and shall not put the Issuer under any resulting liability to any Obligor or any Secured Party, as the case may be. In any event, if the Issuer notifies the applicable Obligor that a draw under a Letter of Credit is to be made and such Obligor fails to object with specificity in writing to such draw by the close of business on the date such notice is received by such Obligor, all Obligors shall be deemed to have waived any objection to the same.

SECTION 2.7. Loan Note Guaranty Issuance Procedures. Other than each Loan Note Guaranty deemed to be issued hereunder prior to the Effective Date, the Loan Note Guarantor will not issue any further Loan Note Guaranty.

SECTION 2.7.1. Risk Participations for Loan Note Guaranty Obligations, etc. (a) Each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment shall be deemed to purchase, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally purchases, from the Loan Note Guarantor a participation in each Loan Note Guaranty and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Percentage of such Lender, multiplied by (ii) the maximum amount available to be drawn under a Loan Note Guaranty and the amount of such drawing, respectively, converted to Dollars at the Spot Rate at the time any drawing is made under such Loan Note Guaranty. For purposes of Section 2.1, each Loan Note Guaranty shall be deemed to utilize the Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitment of each Lender by the amount of such participation. The issuance of each Loan Note Guaranty shall constitute usage of the Revolving Loan Commitment and the Tranche B Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.

(b) In the event of any request for a drawing under any Loan Note Guaranty by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Loan Note Guarantor will promptly notify the Administrative Agent

$$/BREAK/$$END

and the applicable Loan Note Issuer of the request and of the day on which the Loan Note Guarantor is to pay the holders of the Loan Notes (which payment date is not to be less than one day later). Such Loan Note Issuer agrees to reimburse the Loan Note Guarantor prior to 10:00 a.m. on each date that any amount is paid by the Loan Note Guarantor under such Loan Note Guaranty (each such date, an “Honor Date”), in an amount equal to the amount so paid by the Loan Note Guarantor. In the event such Loan Note Issuer fails to reimburse the Loan Note Guarantor for the full amount of any drawing under a Loan Note Guaranty by 10:00 a.m. on the Honor Date, the Loan Note Guarantor will promptly notify the Administrative Agent who will in turn promptly notify each Lender. Unless notified by such Loan Note Issuer to convert an unreimbursed drawing into Tranche B Loans or Tranche B Other Currency Loans, subject to Section 7.1.12, or, if such Loan Note Issuer requests a conversion of an unreimbursed drawing into Tranche B Loans or Tranche B Other Currency Loans, subject to Section 7.1.12 , but the unreimbursed drawing is not converted because of such Loan Note Issuer’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in this Agreement , each Lender will be deemed to be obligated to make an advance (a “Tranche B Loan Note Advance”) (it being understood and agreed that any Borrowing made to reimburse drawings under the Loan Note Guaranties shall consist of Tranche B Loans or Tranche B Other Currency Loans) to such Loan Note Issuer in the amount (determined as of the Honor Date) of such Lender’s Percentage of such drawing and such Tranche B Loan Note Advances shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus 2% per annum and shall be immediately due and payable by such Loan Note Issuer to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders. If for any reason the Tranche B Loan Note Advances cannot be made, the Lenders should be deemed to have purchased a participation in the drawing funded by the Loan Note Guarantor. Any notice given by the Loan Note Guarantor or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.7.1 may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing (including by facsimile or other electronic communication with confirmed receipt); provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(c) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that a Loan Note Issuer requests be converted into a Tranche B Loan Note Advance and so long as the conditions set forth in Section 5.2.1 and Section 7.1.12 are satisfied, each Lender shall upon notice from the Loan Note Guarantor make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Loan Note Guarantor an amount in immediately available funds equal to its pro rata share of the amount of such drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall each be deemed to have made a Tranche B Loan Note Advance to such Loan Note Issuer (or to have participated therein) in that amount herein, and such Tranche B Loan Note Advance shall bear interest at the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus 2%. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Loan Note Guarantor the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of the amount of such unreimbursed drawing or the amount of its Tranche B Loan Note Advance by no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Honor Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Honor Date to the date such Lender makes such payment, at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus 2%. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Honor Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent to give any such notice on the Honor Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligations under this Section 2.7.1.

(d) Provided that the Loan Note Guarantor has paid a drawing under any Loan Note Guaranty substantially in accordance with its terms, each Lender’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make the Tranche B Loans or Tranche B Other Currency Loans or Tranche B Loan Note Advances or to purchase a participation, as contemplated by this Section 2.7.1, as a result of a drawing under such Loan Note Guaranty, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Loan Note Guarantor, any Loan Note Issuer, the U.S. Borrower or any other

$$/BREAK/$$END

Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, an Event of Default or a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans under this Section 2.7.1 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.2.1 and Section 7.1.12. Nothing in this Section 2.7.1 is intended to, and shall not preclude, any Borrower or any Lender from pursuing, after payment, such rights and remedies as it may have against the Loan Note Guarantor in the event such drawing is wrongfully paid as a result of the Loan Note Guarantor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 2.7.2. Repayment of Participations. (a) Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent of immediately available funds from a Loan Note Issuer (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the Loan Note Guarantor under any Loan Note Guaranty with respect to which any Lender has paid the Administrative Agent for the account of the Loan Note Guarantor for such Lender’s participation in such Loan Note Guaranty pursuant to Section 2.7.1, (ii) in payment of interest thereon or (iii) in repayment of Tranche B Loan Note Advances or payment of a Loan Note Issuer’s reimbursement obligations hereunder, the Administrative Agent will pay to such Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such funds, and the Loan Note Guarantor shall receive the amount of the pro rata share of such funds of any Lender that did not so pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Loan Note Guarantor.

(b) If the Administrative Agent or the Loan Note Guarantor is required at any time to pay to a Loan Note Issuer, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any insolvency proceeding, any portion of the payments made by such Loan Note Issuer to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Loan Note Guarantor pursuant to clause (a) above in reimbursement of a payment made under any Loan Note Guaranty or interest thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent, forthwith pay to the Administrative Agent or the Loan Note Guarantor the amount of its pro rata share of any amounts so paid by the Administrative Agent or the Loan Note Guarantor plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are paid by such Lender to the Administrative Agent or the Loan Note Guarantor at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus 2%.

SECTION 2.7.3. Role of the Loan Note Guarantor. (a) Each Lender and the Loan Note Issuer agree that, in paying any drawing under a Loan Note Guaranty, the Loan Note Guarantor shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any certificates expressly required by a Loan Note Guaranty) 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.

(b) Neither the Administrative Agent, its respective Affiliates (including WCM and the Bookrunner), the officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys-in-fact of such Persons nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Loan Note Guarantor 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 Required Lenders, (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document related to any Loan Note Guaranty.

(c) Each Loan Note Issuer hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Loan Note Guaranty; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude a Loan Note Issuer’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. Neither the Administrative Agent, its respective Affiliates (including WCM and the Bookrunner), the officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys-in-fact of such Persons nor any of the respective

$$/BREAK/$$END

correspondents, participants or assignees of the Loan Note Guarantor (including the Lenders), shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in Section 2.7.4; provided, however, anything in such Section to the contrary notwithstanding, that a Loan Note Issuer may have a claim against the Loan Note Guarantor, and the Loan Note Guarantor may be liable to such Loan Note Issuer, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by such Loan Note Issuer which such Loan Note Issuer proves were caused by the Loan Note Guarantor’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Loan Note Guarantor’s willful failure to pay under any Loan Note Guaranty after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of certificate(s) reasonably complying with the terms and conditions of such Loan Note Guaranty. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing: (i) the Loan Note Guarantor may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation; and (ii) the Loan Note Guarantor shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or purporting to transfer any Loan Note Guaranty or the rights or benefits thereunder or assigning the proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms of such Loan Note Guaranty which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

SECTION 2.7.4. Obligations Absolute. Provided that the Loan Note Guarantor has paid a drawing under any Loan Note Guaranty substantially in accordance with the terms of such Loan Note Guaranty, the obligations of the Loan Note Issuers under this Agreement and any document related to such Loan Note Guaranty to reimburse the Loan Note Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for a drawing under such Loan Note Guaranty, and to repay any Tranche B Loan Note Advances and any drawing under such Loan Note Guaranty converted into Tranche B Loans or Tranche B Other Currency Loans, shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each such other document related to such Loan Note Guaranty under all circumstances, including the following:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any document related to such Loan Note Guaranty;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Loan Note Issuers in respect of such Loan Note Guaranty or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the documents related to such Loan Note Guaranty, which have been previously agreed to by the Loan Note Issuers;

(c) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Loan Note Issuers may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Loan Note Guaranty (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Loan Note Guarantor or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement or by the documents related to such Loan Note Guaranty or any unrelated transaction;

(d) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Loan Note Guaranty 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 Loan Note Guaranty;

(e) any payment by the Loan Note Guarantor under such Loan Note Guaranty against presentation of a draft or certificate that reasonably complies with the terms of such Loan Note Guaranty; or any payment made by the Loan Note Guarantor under such Loan Note Guaranty to any Person purporting to be (and providing reasonable evidence of its status as) a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator,

$$/BREAK/$$END

administrator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Loan Note Guaranty, including any arising in connection with any insolvency proceeding;

(f) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of the Loan Note Issuers in respect of such Loan Note Guaranty; or

(g) 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 Loan Note Issuers or a guarantor.

SECTION 2.7.5. Cash Collateral Pledge. Upon (a) the request of the Administrative Agent if the Loan Note Guarantor has honored any full or partial drawing request on any Loan Note Guaranty and such drawing has resulted in a Tranche B Loan Note Advance hereunder or (b) if, as of the Termination Date, any Loan Note Guaranty may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, then the applicable Loan Note Issuer shall immediately Cash Collateralize the Loan Note Guaranty Obligations in an amount equal to such Loan Note Guaranty Obligations. If such Loan Note Guaranty expires without the application of such cash collateral in full, or if all Tranche B Loan Note Advances with respect to such Loan Note Guaranty have been paid in full by the applicable Loan Note Issuer, then as long as there is no Event of Default in existence and so long as no such application shall be made within 25 days of the expiration of such Loan Note Guaranty, the Administrative Agent shall return to the applicable Loan Note Issuer any cash or deposit account balances, together with all interest thereon, that were used by such Loan Note Issuer to Cash Collateralize such Loan Note Guaranty pursuant to this Section 2.7.5 and were not applied to Tranche B Loan Note Advances. The U.S. Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash and deposit account balances to secure Loan Note Guaranty Obligations or Letters of Credit. Cash collateral shall be maintained in blocked deposit accounts held by the Administrative Agent or any of its agents.

SECTION 2.7.6. Third Party Beneficiary. It is agreed by all parties hereto that Sections 2.7.1 through 2.7.6 have been entered into for the benefit of the Loan Note Guarantor, which has relied thereon in issuing each Loan Note Guaranty and the aforenamed Sections shall survive the termination of the Agreement and may not be amended without the consent of the Loan Note Guarantor.

SECTION 2.8. Register; Notes. (a) Each Lender may maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. In the case of a Lender that does not request, pursuant to clause (b)(ii) below, execution and delivery of a Note evidencing the Loans made by such Lender to the Borrowers, such account or accounts shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the notations made by the Administrative Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to maintain such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Obligor.

(b) (i) Each Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as such Borrower’s agent, solely for the purpose of this clause (b), to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Administrative Agent will record each Lender’s Commitment, the Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender and annexed to which the Administrative Agent shall retain a copy of each Lender Assignment Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.12.1. Failure to make any recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Borrower’s obligation in respect of such Loans. The entries in the

$$/BREAK/$$END

Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan (and as provided in clause (ii) below, the Note evidencing such Loan, if any) is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. A Lender’s Commitment and the Loans made pursuant thereto may be assigned or otherwise transferred in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or transfer in the Register. Any assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or the Loans made pursuant thereto shall be registered in the Register only upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Lender Assignment Agreement duly executed by the Assignor Lender and the compliance by the parties thereto with the other requirements of Section 10.12.1. No assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or the Loans made pursuant thereto shall be effective unless such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by the Administrative Agent as provided in this Section 2.8.

(ii) Each Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, such Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender, as applicable, a Note payable to the order of such Lender in a minimum stated principal amount denominated in Dollars equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the applicable original Commitment Amount; provided, however, that all Notes shall be in a minimum stated principal amount denominated in Dollars equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the original Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, multiplied by 105%. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to such Lender’s Notes (or on any continuation of such grid), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the type of, the outstanding principal amount of, and the interest rate and Interest Period applicable to the Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the notations made by the Administrative Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding on such Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Obligor.

SECTION 2.9. Multi Currency Loans.

SECTION 2.9.1. Determination of Dollar Equivalents. The Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount with respect to any (a) LIBO Rate Loan that is an Other Currency Loan or an Other Currency Swing Line Loan as of the requested Borrowing date and as of the earlier of (i) any requested continuation date or (ii) ninety days after the Borrowing date of any outstanding LIBO Rate Loans that is an Other Currency Loan, (b) outstanding LIBO Rate Loans that are an Other Currency Loan as of such dates as may be requested by the Required Lenders, but in no event more frequently than once a week and (c) any LIBO Rate Loan that is an Other Currency Loan or an Other Currency Swing Line Loan with respect to calculations made under clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of EBITDA, as of the date of such calculations (each such date under clause (a), (b) and (c), a “Determination Date”).

SECTION 2.9.2. Notification of Availability. In the event the Other Currency requested or elected by a requesting Borrower to be continued is not available to the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent shall, in the case of Other Currency Loans, notify such Borrower no later than 3:30 p.m., one Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowings or proposed continuation and, in the case of Other Currency Swing Line Loans, notify such Borrower no later than the date of the proposed Borrowing.

SECTION 2.9.3. Consequences of Non-Availability. If the Administrative Agent notifies the U.S. Borrower pursuant to Section 2.9.2 that the Other Currency requested or elected by a requesting Borrower to be continued is not available, such notification shall (a) in the case of any Borrowing Request, revoke such Borrowing Request and (b) in the case of any Continuation/Conversion

$$/BREAK/$$END

Notice, result in the LIBO Rate Loans (other than Other Currency Swing Line Loans) denominated in such Other Currency being automatically converted into LIBO Rate Loans denominated in Dollars for a one month Interest Period on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect to such LIBO Rate Loans denominated in such Other Currency.

SECTION 2.9.4. Automatic Conversions. During the existence of an Event of Default, all outstanding Loans denominated in an Other Currency shall be redenominated and converted into their Dollar Equivalent of Base Rate Loans in Dollars on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to any such Loans.

ARTICLE III

SECTION 3.1. Repayments and Prepayments; Application. Each Borrower agrees that the Loans shall be repaid and prepaid pursuant to the following terms.

The Borrowers shall repay in full the unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the Stated Maturity Date, the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize each Loan Note Guaranty on the Stated Maturity Date and the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize all Letter of Credit Outstandings on the Stated Maturity Date unless any such Letter of Credit have been canceled or replaced. Prior thereto, payments and prepayments of the Loans shall or may be made as set forth below.

(a) From time to time on any Business Day, the Borrowers may make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any

(i) Revolving Loans (any such prepayment of Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata among the Revolving Loans of the same type, tranche and, if applicable, having the same Interest Period of all Lenders that have made such Revolving Loans); (A) all such voluntary prepayments shall require at least one but no more than five Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent; and (B) all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be, in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and, in the case of Base Rate Loans, in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $500,000; and

(ii) Swing Line Loans or Other Currency Swing Line Loans; provided that (A) all such voluntary prepayments shall require prior telephonic notice to the Swing Line Lender on or before 1:00 p.m. (which shall be London time, in the case of Other Currency Swing Line Loans) on the day of such prepayment (such notice to be confirmed in writing within 24 hours thereafter, with the Swing Line Lender to be fully protected with respect to disputes regarding telephonic notices); and (B) all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $400,000 (and in the case of the Other Currency Swing Line Loans, the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and an integral multiple of $200,000 (and in the case of the Other Currency Swing Line Loans, the Dollar Equivalent thereof).

(b) On each date when the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans, the Dollar Equivalent of Other Currency Swing Line

$$/BREAK/$$END

Loans and the Dollar Equivalent of Other Currency Loans, (ii) the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings and (iii) the aggregate amount of all Loan Note Guaranty Obligations exceeds the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, the Borrowers shall make a mandatory prepayment of Revolving Loans, the Other Currency Loans, the Other Currency Swing Line Loans and/or Swing Line Loans and, if necessary, Cash Collateralize Letter of Credit Outstandings, in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

(c) Upon three Business Days’ notice from the Administrative Agent, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall have determined at any time (including on each date of the making of any Loan and on the date of a Continuation/Conversion Notice with respect to any Loan or at any other time periodically) that the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans outstanding (after converting, for calculation purposes, all such Loans denominated in Other Currencies to their Dollar Equivalent on such date of determination), together with, if applicable, all Letter of Credit Outstandings and the Dollar Equivalent of Loan Note Guaranty Obligations, was in excess of 105% of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount the Borrowers shall make a mandatory prepayment in an aggregate principal amount of such Loans denominated in Other Currencies, such that the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding principal amount of such Loans, when added, if applicable, to the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding denominated in Dollars, all Letter of Credit Outstandings and Loan Note Guaranty Obligations, as applicable, do not exceed the applicable Commitment Amount.

(d) Immediately upon any acceleration of the Stated Maturity Date of any Loans pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, the Borrowers shall repay all the Loans, unless, pursuant to Section 8.3, only a portion of all the Loans is so accelerated (in which case the portion so accelerated shall be so repaid).

(e) Within three Business Days following the receipt by the Borrowers (other than the U.S. Borrower) or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any Net Casualty Proceeds from any Casualty Event, the aggregate amount of which is in excess of $1,000,000, the applicable Borrower(s) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a calculation of the amount of such Net Casualty Proceeds, and apply such Net Casualty Proceeds to the prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.1.2; provided, however, that no such prepayment from such Net Casualty Proceeds shall be required under this clause if such Borrower informs the Administrative Agent in writing no later than 30 days following the occurrence of the Casualty Event resulting in such Net Casualty Proceeds of its or such Subsidiary’s good faith intention to apply such Net Casualty Proceeds to the rebuilding or replacement of the damaged, destroyed or condemned assets or property and such Borrower or such Subsidiary in fact uses such Net Casualty Proceeds to rebuild or replace such assets or property within 180 days following the receipt of such Net Casualty Proceeds; provided further, however, that the amount of such Net Casualty Proceeds unused after such 180-day period shall be applied to the prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 3.1.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time when any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all Net Casualty Proceeds shall be deposited in an account maintained with the Administrative Agent (over which the Administrative Agent shall have a first priority perfected security interest) for, at the Administrative Agent’s discretion, (i) the prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.1.2 or (ii) distribution to such Borrower or such Subsidiary for such rebuilding or replacement whenever no Default or Event of Default is then continuing.

(f) Within three Business Days following the receipt by any of the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any Net Disposition Proceeds (other than Net Disposition Proceeds resulting from a Disposition of inventory and equipment in the ordinary course of

$$/BREAK/$$END

business consistent with past practice), the aggregate amount of which for all Borrowers is in excess of $1,000,000, the applicable Borrower(s) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a calculation of the amount of such Net Disposition Proceeds, and apply such Net Disposition Proceeds to the prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.1.2; provided, however, that no prepayment from Net Disposition Proceeds shall be required under this clause if (i) such Borrower informs the Administrative Agent in writing no later than one Business Day following the receipt of such Net Disposition Proceeds of its or such Subsidiary’s good faith intention to apply such Net Disposition Proceeds to the purchase of reasonably related assets, and such Borrower or such Subsidiary in fact uses such Net Disposition Proceeds to purchase such assets or property within 180 days following the receipt of such Net Disposition Proceeds; provided, further, however that the amount of such Net Disposition Proceeds unused after such 180-day period shall be applied to the prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.1.2 or (ii) applied to prepay other Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Debt) as permitted hereunder.

(g) On the day on which a Compliance Certificate is required to be delivered pursuant to clause (c) of Section 7.1.1, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a calculation of the Excess Cash Flow (if any) for the Fiscal Quarter last ended and make a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to 50% of the Excess Cash Flow (if any) for such Fiscal Quarter, and the amount of such Excess Cash Flow shall be applied to the prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.1.2.

(h) Within three Business Days of the receipt by any of the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any Net Debt Proceeds or Net Equity Proceeds, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a calculation of the amount of such Net Debt Proceeds or Net Equity Proceeds, as the case may be, and apply such proceeds to the prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.1.2.

Each prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to this Section 3.1.1 shall be without premium or penalty, except as may be required by Section 4.4. In lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 3.1.1 in respect of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrowers at their option may deposit with the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of the LIBO Rate Loan to be prepaid and such LIBO Rate Loan shall be repaid on the last day of the Interest Period therefor in the required amount. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a corporate time deposit account established on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, earning interest at the then-customary rate for accounts of such type. Such deposit shall Cash Collateralize the applicable Obligations, provided that the Borrowers may at any time direct that such deposit be applied to make the applicable payment required pursuant to this Section 3.1.1, subject to the provisions of Section 4.4.

SECTION 3.1.2. Application. Amounts prepaid pursuant to Section 3.1.1 shall be applied as set forth in this Section 3.1.2.

ARTICLE IV

CERTAIN LIBO RATE AND OTHER PROVISIONS, BORROWER GUARANTIES

SECTION 4.1. LIBO Rate Lending Unlawful. If any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to make or continue any Loan as, or to convert any Loan into, a LIBO Rate Loan, the obligations of such Lender to make, continue or convert any such LIBO Rate Loan shall, upon such determination, forthwith be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and (a) all LIBO Rate Loans denominated in Dollars shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion, and (b) all LIBO Rate Loans denominated in any Other Currency shall automatically become due and payable at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by applicable law.

SECTION 4.2. Deposits Unavailable. If the Administrative Agent shall have determined that

(a) Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest Period are not available to it in its relevant market; or

(b) by reason of circumstances affecting its relevant market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable hereunder to LIBO Rate Loans;

then, upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the U.S. Borrower and the Lenders, the obligations of all Lenders under Section 2.3 and Section 2.4 to make or continue any Loans as, or to convert any Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the U.S. Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

$$/BREAK/$$END

SECTION 4.3. Increased LIBO Rate Loan Costs, etc. The Borrowers agree to reimburse each Lender, the Loan Note Guarantor and the Issuer for any increase in the cost to such Lender, the Loan Note Guarantor or the Issuer of, or any reduction in the amount of any sum receivable by such Secured Party in respect of, such Secured Party’s Commitments and the making of Credit Extensions hereunder (including the making, continuing or maintaining (or of its obligation to make or continue) any Loans as, or of converting (or of its obligation to convert) any Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans) that arise in connection with any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in after the Effective Date of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority, except for such changes with respect to increased capital costs and Taxes which are governed by Sections 4.5 and 4.6, respectively. Each affected Secured Party shall notify the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower in writing within 180 days after the occurrence of any such event, stating the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Secured Party for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrowers directly to such Secured Party within five days after its receipt of such notice, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

SECTION 4.4. Funding Losses. In the event any Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to make or continue any portion of the principal amount of any Loan as, or to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Loan into, a LIBO Rate Loan) as a result of

(a) any conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any LIBO Rate Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, whether pursuant to Article III or otherwise;

(b) any Loans (i) not being made as, or (ii) being made as Loans other than as, LIBO Rate Loans in accordance with the Revolving Loan Borrowing Request;

(c) any Loans not being continued as, or converted into, LIBO Rate Loans in accordance with the Continuation/Conversion Notice therefor; or

(d) any LIBO Rate Loan not being prepaid on the date specified in a notice of prepayment;

then, upon the notice of such Lender to the U.S. Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall, within five days after its receipt by the U.S. Borrower thereof, pay directly to such Lender such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense. Such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

SECTION 4.5. Increased Capital Costs. If any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party, and such Secured Party determines (in good faith but in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of the Commitments or the Credit Extensions made, or the Letters of Credit or the Loan Note Guaranty participated in, by such Secured Party is reduced to a level below that which such Secured Party or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then upon notice, which shall be given within 180 days after the date of such Secured Party having knowledge of

$$/BREAK/$$END

such event by such Secured Party to the U.S. Borrower, the Borrowers shall within five days following receipt of such notice pay directly to such Secured Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Secured Party or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of such Secured Party as to any such additional amount or amounts shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers. In determining such amount, such Secured Party may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem applicable.

SECTION 4.6. Taxes. The Borrowers covenant and agree as follows with respect to Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by any Borrower under each Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes. In the event that any Taxes are required by law to be deducted or withheld from any payment required to be made by any Borrower to or on behalf of any Secured Party under any Loan Document, then:

(i) subject to clause (f), if such Taxes are Non-Excluded Taxes, the amount of such payment shall be increased as may be necessary such that such payment is made, after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Taxes, in an amount that is not less than the amount provided for in such Loan Document; and

(ii) such Borrower shall withhold the full amount of such Taxes from such payment (as increased pursuant to clause (a)(i)) and shall pay such amount to the Governmental Authority imposing such Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any and all Other Taxes imposed to the relevant Governmental Authority imposing such Other Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the payment of any Taxes or Other Taxes, and in any event within 45 days of any such payment being due, the applicable Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent a copy of an official receipt (or a certified copy thereof) evidencing the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes. The Administrative Agent shall make copies thereof available to any Lender upon request therefor.

(d) Subject to clause (f), the Borrowers shall indemnify each Secured Party for any Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes levied, imposed or assessed on (and whether or not paid directly by) such Secured Party (and whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority). Promptly upon having knowledge that any such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes have been levied, imposed or assessed, and promptly upon notice thereof by any Secured Party, the Borrowers shall pay such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes directly to the relevant Governmental Authority (provided, however, that no Secured Party shall be under any obligation to provide any such notice to any Borrower). If a Secured Party receives a refund in respect of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.6, it shall within 60 days from the date of such receipt pay over to the Borrowers (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 4.6 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Secured Party and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant jurisdiction or taxing authority with respect to such refund) the portion of such refund which, in the good faith judgment of such Secured Party, is attributable to the payment of such additional amounts by the Borrowers and in an amount as will leave such

$$/BREAK/$$END

Secured Party in no better or worse position than it would have been in if the payment of such additional amounts had not been required; provided, however, that the Borrowers, upon the request of such Secured Party, agree to repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers (plus penalties, interest or other charges payable to the relevant jurisdiction or taxing authority) to such Secured Party in the event such Secured Party is required to repay such refund to such jurisdiction or taxing authority. In addition, the Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify each Secured Party for any incremental Taxes that may become payable by such Secured Party as a result of any failure of any Borrower to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or to deliver to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to clause (c), documentation evidencing the payment of Taxes or Other Taxes. With respect to indemnification for Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes actually paid by any Secured Party or the indemnification provided in the immediately preceding sentence, such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date such Secured Party makes written demand therefor. Each Borrower acknowledges that any payment made to any Secured Party or to any Governmental Authority in respect of the indemnification obligations of the Borrowers provided in this clause shall constitute a payment in respect of which the provisions of clause (a) and this clause shall apply.

(e) Each Non-U.S. Lender, on or prior to the date on which such non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the U.S. Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only for so long as such non-U.S. Lender is legally entitled to do so), shall deliver to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent either

(i) two duly completed copies of either (A) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or (B) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, or in either case an applicable successor form; or

(ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is claiming the “portfolio interest” exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate of a duly authorized officer of such Non-U.S. Lender to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (such certificate, an “Exemption Certificate”) and (y) two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or applicable successor form.

(f) The Borrowers shall not be obligated to gross up any payments to any Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i), or to indemnify any Lender pursuant to clause (d), in respect of United States federal withholding Taxes to the extent imposed as a result of (i) the failure of such Lender to deliver to any Borrower the form or forms and/or an Exemption Certificate, as applicable to such Lender, pursuant to clause (e), (ii) such form or forms and/or Exemption Certificate not establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax or the information or certifications made therein by the Lender being untrue or inaccurate on the date delivered in any material respect, or (iii) the Lender designating a successor lending office at which it maintains its Loans which has the effect of causing such Lender to become obligated for Tax payments in excess of those in effect immediately prior to such designation; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall be obligated to gross up any payments to any such Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i), and to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to clause (d), in respect of United States federal withholding Taxes if (i) any such failure to deliver a form or forms or an Exemption Certificate or the failure of such form or forms or Exemption Certificate to establish a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax or inaccuracy or untruth contained therein resulted from a

$$/BREAK/$$END

change in any applicable statute, treaty, regulation or other applicable law or any interpretation of any of the foregoing occurring after the Effective Date, which change rendered such Lender no longer legally entitled to deliver such form or forms or Exemption Certificate or otherwise ineligible for a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax, or rendered the information or certifications made in such form or forms or Exemption Certificate untrue or inaccurate in a material respect, (ii) the redesignation of the Lender’s lending office was made at the request of the U.S. Borrower or (iii) the obligation to gross up payments to any such Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i) or to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to clause (d) is with respect to an Assignee Lender that becomes an Assignee Lender as a result of an assignment made at the request of the U.S. Borrower.

(g) Each Lender that is a Lender in relation to a U.K. Borrower represents to the Loan Note Issuers and the Administrative Agent, in the case of a Lender that is a Lender on the Effective Date, on the Effective Date, and in the case of a Lender that becomes a Lender after the Effective Date, on the date it becomes a Lender, and in either case on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the last day of each Interest Period for any LIBO Rate Loans, that it is either (i) a bank beneficially entitled to interest in respect of such Loans and within the charge to corporation tax in respect of such interest for the purposes of Section 349(3)(a) of the Income and Corporation Taxes ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇; (ii) (A) a company beneficially entitled to interest in respect of such Loans and resident in the United Kingdom for U.K. Tax purposes, or (B) a Lender that is beneficially entitled to interest in respect of such Loans and is a partnership each member of which is a company resident in the United Kingdom for U.K. Tax purposes, or (C) a company beneficially entitled to interest in respect of such Loans and not resident in the United Kingdom for U.K. Tax purposes but which carries on a trade in the United Kingdom through a permanent establishment and which brings into account interest payable in respect of such Loans in computing its chargeable profits (within the meaning given by Section 11(2) of the U.K. Income and Corporations Taxes Act 1988); or (iii) a bank or Affiliate of a bank lending through any permanent establishment if, at the time the bank or Affiliate of a bank becomes a party, the bank or Affiliate of the bank (as the case may be) (A) is treated as resident (for the purposes of the appropriate double taxation agreement) in a jurisdiction having a double taxation agreement with the United Kingdom which makes provision for full exemption from Tax imposed by the United Kingdom on interest, and does not carry on business in the United Kingdom through a permanent establishment with which that bank or Affiliate’s participation in such Loans is effectively connected, or (B) is otherwise entitled to receive principal, interest and fees without such withholding, and shall forthwith notify the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent if either representation ceases to be correct. Each Lender that is not funding such Loans out of a lending office in the United Kingdom (or another jurisdiction having an exemption from U.K. income tax by treaty) shall submit a duly completed Form FD13 double tax treaty form to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (or the comparable form for its jurisdiction to its jurisdiction’s tax authorities) reasonably promptly seeking exemption from U.K. income tax on interest payable under the Loan Documents.

(h) Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to designate an alternate lending office with respect to its LIBO Rate Loans affected by any of the matters or circumstances described in this Section 4.6 to reduce the obligation of the Borrowers to gross up any payments to any Lenders pursuant to clause(a)(i), or to indemnify any Lenders pursuant to clause (d), so long as such designation is not disadvantageous in any way to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion; provided that such Lender shall have no obligation to so designate an alternate lending office located in the United States. Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.6 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to deliver to the Borrowers or the

$$/BREAK/$$END

Administrative Agent any certificate or document reasonably requested by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent if the delivery of such certificate or document would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(i) If any Lender that does not make a LIBO Rate Loan pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 is subject to increased costs pursuant to Section 4.3, or is owed or reasonably anticipates being owed additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.6 and fails to take action required under clause (h) of this Section 4.6, and the same circumstances are not generally applicable to other Lenders, any Borrower shall have the right, if no Default then exists, to replace such Lender with another bank or financial institution with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that (i) the obligations of any Borrower owing to the Lender being replaced (including such increased costs) that are not being assigned to the replacement Lender shall be paid in full to the Lender being replaced concurrently with such replacement, (ii) the replacement lender shall execute a Lender Assignment Agreement and Acceptance pursuant to which it shall become a party hereto as provided in Section 10.12.1, and (iii) upon compliance with the provisions for assignment provided in Section 10.12.1 and the payment of amounts referred to in clause (i), the replacement lender shall constitute a “Lender” hereunder and the Lender being so replaced shall no longer constitute a “Lender” hereunder.

SECTION 4.7. Payments, Computations, etc. Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrowers pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Secured Parties entitled to receive such payment. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than 11:00 a.m. (which shall be London time in the case of Other Currency Loans and Other Currency Swing Line Loans) on the date due in same day or immediately available funds to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the U.S. Borrower. Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Secured Party its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Secured Party. All interest (including interest on LIBO Rate Loans) and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days, except with respect to LIBO Rate Loans denominated in Sterling which shall accrue interest computed on the basis of 365 days and except with respect to Base Rate Loans which shall accrue interest computed on the basis of a year comprised of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, provided, however, that to the extent the current market practice is to compute interest and/or fees in respect of any Other Currency or any Loan denominated in any Other Currency in a manner other than as set forth above, all interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of such market practice, as notified to the U.S. Borrower by the Administrative Agent. Payments due on other than a Business Day shall (except as otherwise required by clause (b) of the definition of the term “Interest Period”) be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with that payment.

SECTION 4.8. Sharing of Payments. If any Secured Party shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Credit Extension or Reimbursement Obligation (other than pursuant to the terms of Section 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 or 4.6) in excess of its pro rata share of payments obtained by all Secured Parties, such Secured Party shall purchase from the other Secured Parties such participations in Credit Extensions made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Secured Party to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably (to the extent such other Secured Parties were entitled to receive a portion of such payment or

$$/BREAK/$$END

recovery) with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Secured Party, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Secured Party which has sold a participation to the purchasing Secured Party shall repay to the purchasing Secured Party the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Secured Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Secured Party’s required repayment to the purchasing Secured Party to (b) total amount so recovered from the purchasing Secured Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Secured Party in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Secured Party purchasing a participation from another Secured Party pursuant to this Section 4.8 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 4.9) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Secured Party were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law any Secured Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 4.8 applies, such Secured Party shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Secured Parties entitled under this Section 4.8 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

SECTION 4.9. Setoff. Each Secured Party shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default described in clauses (a) through (d) of Section 8.1.9 or, with the consent of the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, have the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations owing to it (whether or not then due), and (as security for such Obligations) each Borrower hereby grants to each Secured Party a continuing security interest in, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of such Borrower then or thereafter maintained with such Secured Party; provided, however, that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.8. Each Secured Party agrees promptly to notify the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Secured Party; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Secured Party under this Section 4.9 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under applicable law or otherwise) which such Secured Party may have. The Borrower agrees to combine currencies to effectuate a set-off at the Spot Rate.

SECTION 4.10. Guaranty Provisions. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, whether or not specifically indicated as such in a Loan Document, all Obligations shall be joint and several Obligations of each individual Borrower (except to the extent such joint liability for any such Obligations would constitute unlawful financial assistance prohibited by Section 151 of the English Companies ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ or Article 161 of the Companies (Northern Ireland) Order 1986), and in furtherance of such joint and several Obligations, each Borrower hereby irrevocably guarantees the payment of all Obligations of each other Borrower as set forth below.

SECTION 4.10.1. Guaranty. Each Borrower hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations; provided, however, that each Borrower shall only be liable to the Secured Parties under this Agreement (a) for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering this Agreement, as it relates to such Borrower, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount and (b) to the extent such liability for any such Obligations would not constitute unlawful financial assistance prohibited by Section 151 of the English Companies ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ or Article 161 of the Companies (Northern Ireland) Order 1986. This guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not merely of collection, and each Borrower specifically agrees that it shall not be necessary or required that any Secured Party exercise any right,

$$/BREAK/$$END

assert any claim or demand or enforce any remedy whatsoever against any Obligor or any other Person before or as a condition to the obligations of such Borrower hereunder.

SECTION 4.10.2. Guaranty Absolute, etc. The guaranty agreed to above shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable guaranty of payment, and shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date. Each Borrower jointly and severally guarantees that the Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of each Loan Document under which such Obligations arise, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Secured Party with respect thereto. The liability of each Borrower under this Agreement shall be joint and several, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of any Loan Document;

(b) the failure of any Secured Party (i) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor) under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise, or (ii) to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor (including any Obligor) of, or collateral securing, any Obligations;

(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Obligations, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any Obligation;

(d) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of any Obligations for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to (and each Borrower hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, any Obligations or otherwise;

(e) any amendment to, rescission, waiver, or other modification of, or any consent to or departure from, any of the terms of any Loan Document;

(f) any addition, exchange, release, surrender or non-perfection of any collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release or addition of, or consent to or departure from, any other guaranty held by any Secured Party securing any of the Obligations; or

(g) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Obligor, any surety or any guarantor.

SECTION 4.10.3. Reinstatement, etc. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment (in whole or in part) of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Secured Party, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any other Borrower, any other Obligor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

SECTION 4.10.4. Waiver, etc. Each Borrower hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Agreement and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against any other Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor) or entity or any collateral securing the Obligations, as the case may be.

$$/BREAK/$$END

SECTION 4.10.5. Postponement of Subrogation, etc. Each Borrower agrees that it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under any Loan Document to which it is a party, nor shall any Borrower seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Obligor, in respect of any payment made hereunder, under any other Loan Document or otherwise, until following the Termination Date. Any amount paid to any Borrower on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the Termination Date shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid and turned over to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties in the exact form received by such Borrower (duly endorsed in favor of the Administrative Agent, if required), to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with Section 4.7; provided, however, that if

(a) any Borrower has made payment to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Obligations; and

(b) the Termination Date has occurred;

then at such Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) will, at the expense of such Borrower, execute and deliver to such Borrower appropriate documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty) necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Borrower of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, at all times prior to the Termination Date each Borrower shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any Obligor (or its successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts in the respect of payments made under any Loan Document to any Secured Party.

SECTION 4.10.6. Guaranty Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each U.K. Obligor (other than U.K. Holdings, which shall guaranty all Obligations) shall only be a guarantor of the U.K. Obligations and the indemnities contained herein and not for any other amounts.

SECTION 4.11. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as to any Lender which (a) has refused (which refusal has not been retracted) to make available its portion of any Borrowing or to fund its portion of any unreimbursed (or disgorged) payment under Section 2.6.1 or (b) has given notice to the Administrative Agent and/or the Borrowers that it does not intend to comply with its obligations under Section 2.1 or under Section 2.6.1, in the case of clause (a) or clause (b) above, in connection with or after the appointment of a receiver or conservator with respect to such Lender at the direction or request of any regulatory agency or authority (such Lender, a “Defaulting Lender”):

(i) such Lender shall not be deemed a Required Lender hereunder and such Lender’s Commitments, Loans and Letter of Credit Outstandings shall be excluded from the calculations set forth in the definition of Required Lenders;

(ii) such Lender shall not be entitled to receive any portion of (A) Letter of Credit fees, (B) interest payable with respect to any Disbursements or (C) amounts received in respect of Disbursements; and

(iii) such Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee payable in respect of the Commitment Amount.

$$/BREAK/$$END

In addition to the foregoing, and notwithstanding Section 2.1.2, if any Lender shall fall within the description set forth in clause (a) or (b) above, the Issuer shall not be required to issue any Letter of Credit, unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer have been entered into to eliminate the Issuer’s risk with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit by such Lender, including Cash Collateralizing such Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment.

SECTION 6.1. Organization, etc. Each Obligor is validly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of the state or jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business requires such qualification (except for where failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), and has full power and authority and holds all requisite governmental licenses, permits and other approvals to enter into and perform its Obligations under each Loan Document to which it is a party and to own and hold under lease its property and to conduct its business substantially as currently conducted by it (except for where failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect).

SECTION 6.4. Validity, etc. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Borrower, and each Loan Document to which each Obligor is a party constitutes, or will, on the due execution and delivery thereof by such Obligor, constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Obligor, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms (except, in any case, as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity).

SECTION 6.5. Financial Information. All balance sheets, all statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flow and all other financial information of each of the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries furnished pursuant to Section 7.1.1 have been and will be prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, and do or will present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition of the Persons covered thereby as at the dates thereof and the results of their operations for the periods then ended, subject to normal year-end adjustments.

SECTION 6.6. No Material Adverse Change. There has been no material adverse change in the business, assets, properties, financial condition, liabilities, revenues, tax position, debt service capacity, operations or prospects of the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, since December 29, 2002.

SECTION 6.7. Litigation, Labor Controversies, etc. There is no pending or, to the knowledge of the U.S. Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened litigation, action, proceeding or labor controversy,

(a) except as disclosed in Item 6.7 of the Disclosure Schedule, affecting any Obligor or any of their respective properties, businesses, assets or revenues, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and no adverse development has occurred in any labor controversy, litigation, arbitration or governmental investigation or proceeding disclosed in Item 6.7; or

(b) which purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any Loan Document.

SECTION 6.8. Subsidiaries. The U.S. Borrower has no Subsidiaries, except those Subsidiaries

(a) which are identified in Item 6.8 of the Disclosure Schedule; or

(b) which are permitted to have been organized or acquired in accordance with Section 7.2.5 or Section 7.2.8.

SECTION 6.9. Ownership of Properties. The U.S. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries owns (a) in the case of owned real property, good and marketable fee title to, and (b) in the case of owned personal property, good and valid title to, or, in the case of leased real or personal property, valid and enforceable leasehold interests (as the case may be) in, all of its material properties and assets, real and personal, tangible and intangible, of any nature whatsoever, free and clear in each case of all Liens or claims, except for Permitted Liens.

SECTION 6.10. Taxes. The U.S. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has filed all Tax returns and reports required by law to have been filed by it and has paid all Taxes and governmental charges thereby shown to be due and owing, except any such Taxes or charges which are being diligently contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP shall have been set aside on its books or where the failure to pay, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 6.11. Pension and Welfare Plans. During the twelve-consecutive-month period prior to the Effective Date and prior to the date of any Credit Extension hereunder, no steps have been taken to terminate any Pension Plan which could be reasonably likely to result in a material liability to any Obligor or any member of the Controlled Group, and no contribution failure has occurred with respect to any Pension Plan sufficient to give rise to a Lien under Section 302(f) of ERISA. No condition exists or event or transaction has occurred with respect to any Pension Plan which might result in the incurrence by the Obligors or any member of the Controlled Group of any liability, fine or penalty which, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Obligors nor any member of the Controlled Group has any contingent liability with respect to any post-retirement benefit under a Welfare Plan, other than liability for continuation coverage described in Part 6 of Title I of ERISA other than those which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Foreign Employee Benefit Plan maintained or contributed to by the Obligors, any Non-U.S. Subsidiaries or any member of the Controlled Group is in compliance with all laws, regulations and rules applicable thereto and the respective requirements of the governing documents for such Plan except for such failures which, individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The aggregate of the liabilities to provide all of the accrued benefits under any Foreign Pension Plan maintained or contributed to by the Obligors, any Non-U.S. Subsidiaries or any member of the Controlled Group does not exceed the current fair market value of the assets held in the trust or other funding vehicle for such Plan in a manner that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to any Foreign Employee Benefit Plan maintained by the Obligors, any Non-U.S. Subsidiaries or any member of the Controlled Group (other than a Foreign Pension Plan), reasonable reserves have been established in accordance with prudent business practice or where required by ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such Plan is maintained. The aggregate unfunded liabilities, after giving effect to any reserves for such liabilities, with respect to such Foreign Employee Benefit Plans are not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no actions, suits or claims (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or threatened against the Obligors, any Non-U.S. Subsidiaries or any member of the Controlled Group with respect to any Foreign Employee Benefit Plan other than those which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 6.12. Multiemployer Plan. Neither any Obligor nor any member of the Controlled Group has incurred liability in an amount that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect as a result of a withdrawal from, or the insolvency, reorganization or termination of, a Multiemployer Plan.

(h) there are no polychlorinated biphenyls or friable asbestos present at any property now or previously owned or leased by the U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary that, singly or in the aggregate, have, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect; and

(i) no conditions exist at, on or under any property now or previously owned or leased by the U.S. Borrower which, with the passage of time, or the giving of notice or both, would give rise to material liability under any Environmental Law other than those that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Insofar as any of the information described above includes assumptions, estimates, projections or opinions, the Borrowers have reviewed such matters and nothing has come to the attention of the Borrowers in the context of such review which would lead them to believe that such assumptions, estimates, projections or opinions, omit to state any material fact necessary to make such assumptions, estimates, projections or opinions not reasonable or not misleading in any material respect.

SECTION 6.21. Perfection of Security Interest. The Pledge Agreements, the Security Agreement, and each other agreement pursuant to which the Administrative Agent is granted a Lien to secure any Obligations are in full force and effect, and each such Pledge Agreement, Security Agreement and other agreement create in favor of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties a valid and, together with any filings and other actions as are necessary, perfected first priority security interest in the collateral (subject to Permitted Liens), securing the payment of the Obligations.

Any such inquiry which may be made by the Administrative Agent shall not obligate it to make any further inquiry or to take any action. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters and upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or writing which the Administrative Agent believes to be genuine and to have been presented by a proper Person. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Bookrunner nor the Co-Arrangers, nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder (other than a statement, warranty or representation made by the Agent in writing), (b) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any Obligor under the Loan Document, including, without limitation, any agreement by an Obligor to furnish information directly to each Lender, (c) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article V, expect receipt of items required to be delivered solely to the Administrative Agent, (d) the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default, or (e) the financial condition of any Obligor. Any such inquiry which may be made by the Administrative Agent or the Issuer shall not obligate it to make any further inquiry or to take any action.

SECTION 9.4. Successor. The Administrative Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the U.S. Borrower and all Lenders. If the Administrative Agent at any time shall resign, the Required Lenders may appoint another Lender as a successor Administrative Agent which shall thereupon become the Administrative Agent hereunder. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring

$$/BREAK/$$END

Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be one of the Lenders or a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the U.S. (or any State thereof) or a U.S. branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000; provided, however, that if, such retiring Administrative Agent is unable to find a commercial banking institution which is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth in above, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive from the retiring Administrative Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Administrative Agent may reasonably request, and shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and Section 10.3 and Section 10.4 shall continue to inure to its benefit.

SECTION 9.5. Loans by Wachovia. Wachovia shall have the same rights and powers with respect to (x) the Credit Extensions made by it or any of its Affiliates, and (y) the Notes held by it or any of its Affiliates as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not the Administrative Agent. Wachovia and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary of any Borrower or Affiliate of any Borrower as if Wachovia were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

SECTION 9.6. Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently of the Administrative Agent and each other Lender, and based on such Lender’s review of the financial information of the Borrowers, the Loan Documents (the terms and provisions of which being satisfactory to such Lender) and such other documents, information and investigations as such Lender has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to extend its Commitments. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of the Administrative Agent and each other Lender, and based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.7. Copies, etc. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of each notice or request required to be given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents (unless concurrently delivered to the Lenders by such Borrower). The Administrative Agent will distribute to each Lender each document or instrument received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers for distribution to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.8. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Lenders

$$/BREAK/$$END

and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Secured Parties. For purposes of applying amounts in accordance with this Section 9.8, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Secured Party that has entered into a Rate Protection Agreement with any Obligor for a determination (which such Secured Party agrees to provide or cause to be provided upon request of the Administrative Agent) of the outstanding Obligations owed to such Secured Party under any Rate Protection Agreement. Unless it has actual knowledge evidenced by way of notice from any such Secured Party and any Borrower to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in acting in such capacity under the Loan Documents, shall be entitled to assume that no Rate Protection Agreements or Obligations in respect thereof are in existence or outstanding between any Secured Party and any Obligor.

SECTION 9.9. Defaults. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default unless the Administrative Agent has received a notice from a Lender or any Borrower specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 10.1) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Required Lenders or all Lenders.

SECTION 9.10. Bookrunner, Co-Arrangers, Syndication Agents and Documentation Agent. The parties acknowledge and agree that each of the Bookrunner, the Co-Arrangers, the Syndication Agents and the Documentation Agent shall be credited as, and may publicize that it is, the Bookrunner, a Co-Arranger, a Syndication Agent and a Documentation Agent, as the case may be. Without in any respect limiting the rights, privileges, powers, immunities, indemnities and other benefits granted to the Secured Parties, the parties further acknowledge and agree that (a) neither the Bookrunner , the Co-Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, nor the Documentation Agent shall have by reason of its designation as such, any power, duty, responsibility or liability whatsoever under this Agreement or any Loan Document or in respect of financing the transaction contemplated hereby and (b) each of the Bookrunner , the Co-Arrangers, the Syndication Agents and the Documentation Agents shall nevertheless be entitled to each of the protections and immunities granted to the Administrative Agent under Sections 9.3, 9.5, 9.6 and 9.8 (with respect to the first sentence thereof) as fully as if it were expressly referred to therein.

SECTION 10.11. Successors and Assigns.

SECTION 10.12.1. Assignments. (a) Any Lender, pursuant to a Lender Assignment Agreement,

(i) with the consent of the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which consents shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld and which consent, in the case of the U.S. Borrower, shall not be required (A) during the continuation of a Default or (B) for an assignment by any Lender to any of its Affiliates, another Lender or an Eligible Assignee), may at any time assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may withhold such consent in its sole discretion to an assignment to a Person not satisfying the credit ratings set forth in clause (c), or if such assignment would, pursuant to any applicable laws, rules or regulations binding on the Issuer, result in a reduced rate of return to the Issuer or require the Issuer to set aside capital in an amount that is greater than that which is required to be set aside for other Lenders participating in the Letters of Credit; and

(ii) upon notice to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent, upon the Administrative Agent’s acknowledgment on a Lender Assignment Agreement, may assign and delegate to any of its Affiliates, to any other Lender or to a Related Fund of any Lender;

(each Person described in either of the foregoing clauses as being the Person to whom such assignment and delegation is to be made, being hereinafter referred to as an “Assignee Lender”), all or any fraction of such Lender’s Loans, Letter of Credit Outstandings and Commitments in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 ($1,000,000 with respect to loans and commitments under the Incremental Facility, if any) (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Loans, Letter of Credit Outstandings and Commitments).

(b) Each Obligor and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with a Lender in connection with the interests so assigned and delegated to an Assignee Lender until

(ii) such Assignee Lender shall have executed and delivered to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent a properly completed Lender Assignment Agreement, received by the Administrative Agent;

$$/BREAK/$$END

(iii) the processing fees described below, to the extent required, shall have been paid; and

(iv) the Administrative Agent shall have registered such assignment in the Register pursuant to clause (b) of Section 2.8.

From and after the date that the Administrative Agent accepts such Lender Assignment Agreement, (x) the Assignee Lender thereunder shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated to such Assignee Lender in connection with such Lender Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (y) the Assignor Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated by it in connection with such Lender Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Within five Business Days after its receipt of notice that the Administrative Agent has received and accepted an executed Lender Assignment Agreement (and if requested by the Assignee Lender), but subject to clause (c), the U.S. Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (for delivery to the relevant Assignee Lender) a new Note evidencing such Assignee Lender’s assigned Loans and Commitments and, if the Assignor Lender has retained Loans and Commitments hereunder (and if requested by such Lender), a replacement Note in the principal amount of the Loans and Commitments retained by the Assignor Lender hereunder (such Note to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the Note then held by such Assignor Lender). Each such Note shall be dated the date of the predecessor Note. The Assignor Lender shall ▇▇▇▇ each predecessor Note “exchanged” and deliver each of them to the U.S. Borrower. Accrued interest on that part of each predecessor Note evidenced by a new Note, and accrued fees, shall be paid as provided in the Lender Assignment Agreement. Accrued interest on that part of each predecessor Note evidenced by a replacement Note shall be paid to the Assignor Lender. Such Assignor Lender or such Assignee Lender must also pay a processing fee in the amount of $3,500 to the Administrative Agent upon delivery of any Lender Assignment Agreement provided that no such processing fee shall be required in connection with any such assignment and delegation (i) by a Lender to its Affiliate or to a Related Fund, (ii) by a Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank (or, if such Lender is an investment fund, to the trustee under the indenture to which such fund is a party in support of its obligations to such trustee), (iii) in connection with the consummation of the first syndication after the U.S. Closing Date or (iv) if the non-payment of the processing fee is otherwise consented to in writing by the Administrative Agent. Accrued interest and accrued fees shall be paid at the same time or times provided in the predecessor Note and in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the agreement of the Swing Line Lender to provide the Swing Line Loan Commitment and the Other Currency Swing Line Loan Commitment and issue the Letters of Credit shall not impair or otherwise restrict in any manner the ability of the Swing Line Lender to make any assignment of its Loans or Commitments, it being understood and agreed that Swing Line Lender may terminate its Swing Line Loan Commitment and its Other Currency Swing Line Loan Commitment, either in whole or in part, or resign as the Issuer in connection with the making of any assignment. Any attempted assignment and delegation not made in accordance with this Section 10.12.1 shall be null and void. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, any Lender may (without requesting the consent of the U.S. Borrower or the Administrative Agent) pledge its Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank.

(c) In the event that S&P or ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, shall, after the date that any Person becomes a Lender, downgrade the long-term certificate of deposit ratings of such Lender, and the resulting ratings shall be below Investment Grade or the equivalent, then the U.S. Borrower, the Swing Line Lender, the Other Currency Lender and the Issuer shall each have the right, but not the obligation, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace such Lender with a financial institution or other Eligible Assignee (a “Replacement Lender”) acceptable to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such

$$/BREAK/$$END

consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be required if the Replacement Lender is an existing Lender), and upon any such downgrading of any Lender’s long-term certificate of deposit rating, each such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign (in accordance with Section 10.12.1) all of its Commitments and other rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including Reimbursement Obligations) to such Replacement Lender; provided, however, that (i) such assignment shall be without recourse, representation or warranty (other than that such Lender owns the Commitments, Loans and Notes being assigned, free and clear of any Liens) and (ii) the purchase price paid by the Replacement Lender shall be in the amount of such Lender’s Loans and its Percentage of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect thereof, plus all other amounts (other than the amounts (if any) demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.5 and 4.6, which shall be paid by the Borrowers), owing to such Lender hereunder. Upon any such termination or assignment, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of any provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.12.2. Participations. Any Lender may sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons other than direct packaging industry competitors of the U.S. Borrower identified by the U.S. Borrower and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent (each of such commercial banks and other Persons being herein called a “Participant”) participating interests in any of the Loans, Commitments, or other interests of such Lender hereunder; provided, however, that

(a) no participation contemplated in this Section 10.12.2 shall relieve such Lender from its Commitments or its other obligations under any Loan Document;

(b) such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its Commitments and such other obligations;

(c) each Obligor and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under each Loan Document;

(d) no Participant, unless such Participant is an Affiliate of such Lender or is itself a Lender, shall be entitled to require such Lender to take or refrain from taking any action under any Loan Document, except that such Lender may agree with any Participant that such Lender will not, without such Participant’s consent, take any actions of the type described in clause (a), (b), (c) or (f) of Section 10.1 with respect to Obligations participated in by such Participant; and

(e) the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any amount under this Agreement that is greater than the amount which it would have been required to pay had no participating interest been sold.

Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each Participant, for purposes of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.8, 4.9, 7.1.1, 10.3 and 10.4, shall be considered a Lender. Each Participant shall only be indemnified for increased costs pursuant to Sections 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6 if and to the extent that the Lender which sold such participating interest to such Participant concurrently is entitled to make, and does make, a claim on such Borrower for such increased costs.
