Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit or L/C Obligation at any time shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time or of the amount of such L/C Obligation, as the case may be; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be

deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

1.06 Effectuation of Transactions. All references herein to the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be references to such Persons, and all the representations and warranties of the Company and the other Loan Parties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed made, in each case, after giving effect to the Sonion Acquisition and the other Transactions to occur on the Closing Date, unless the context otherwise requires.

1.07 Status of Loan Documents Obligations. In the event that any Loan Party shall at any time issue or have outstanding any Subordinated Indebtedness, the Company shall take or cause such Subsidiary to take all such actions as shall be reasonably necessary to cause the Loan Documents Obligations to constitute senior indebtedness (however denominated) in respect of such Subordinated Indebtedness and to enable the Lenders to have and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior indebtedness under the terms of such Subordinated Indebtedness. Without limiting the foregoing, the Loan Documents Obligations are hereby designated as “senior indebtedness” and as “designated senior indebtedness” under and in respect of any indenture or other agreement or instrument under which such other Subordinated Indebtedness is outstanding and are further given all such other designations as shall be required under the terms of any such Subordinated Indebtedness in order that the Lenders may have and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior indebtedness under the terms of such Subordinated Indebtedness.

1.08 Additional Alternative Currencies. The Company may from time to time request that Committed Revolving Loans be made in a currency (other than Dollars) other than those specifically referred to in the definition of the term “Alternative Currency”, provided that such requested currency is a lawful currency (a) that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Dollars and (b) in which dealings in deposits are carried on in the London interbank market. Any such request shall be made by written notice to the Administrative Agent, which shall provide prompt notice thereof to the other Agents and to Revolving Lenders of the applicable Class. In the case of any such request with respect to (i) Committed Primary Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Primary Revolving Lender, and (ii) Committed Singapore Revolving Loans, such request shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Singapore Revolving Lender. Following the effectiveness of any approval referred to above with respect to Committed Revolving Loans of any Class or Letters of Credit, the term “Alternative Currency”, when used in reference to Committed Revolving Loans of such Class or to Letters of Credit, as the case may be, shall be deemed to include the requested currency so approved.

1.09 Concerning Excluded Subsidiaries. The Company may request that all (but not less than all) of the Excluded Subsidiaries cease to be treated as Excluded Subsidiaries for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (such event being referred to herein as the “Excluded Subsidiaries Redesignation”). Such request shall be made by written notice to

the Administrative Agent, specifying the requested date of effectiveness of the Excluded Subsidiaries Redesignation (the “Redesignation Effective Date”). The Excluded Subsidiaries Redesignation shall become effective on the Redesignation Effective Date, provided that (a) no Default or Event of Default is in existence on such date or would exist after giving effect to the Excluded Subsidiaries Redesignation, (b) after giving effect to the Excluded Subsidiaries Redesignation, the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Redesignation Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 1.09 the representations and warranties contained in Sections 5.05(a) and 5.05(b) (except with respect to the representation and warranty set forth in Section 5.05(a)(iv)) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(b), respectively, and (c) the Company shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate, dated as of the Redesignation Effective Date and signed by the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, controller, director of treasury or treasurer of the Company, certifying that all of the foregoing requirements set forth in this Section 1.09 have been satisfied.

2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Committed Loans. (a) Each Committed Borrowing, each conversion of Committed Primary Revolving Loans that are Dollar Domestic Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice to the Applicable Agent. Each such notice must be received by the Applicable Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Specified Time, (i) in the case of notices under the Singapore Revolving Subfacility, four Business Days prior to the requested date of any Committed Borrowing thereunder or any continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans made thereunder and (ii) otherwise, (A) four Business Days prior to the requested date of any Committed Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans made to a Foreign Borrower, (B) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Committed Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans made to a Domestic Borrower and (C) in the case of Committed Primary Revolving Loans that are Dollar Domestic Loans, on the requested date of any Committed Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans.

Each Committed Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, provided that any such Committed Borrowing requested to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement may be in an aggregate amount sufficient to finance such reimbursement. Each Committed Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the request is being made (A) for a Committed Borrowing, (B) in the case of Committed Primary Revolving Loans that are Dollar Domestic Loans, a conversion of such Loans from one Type to the other, or (C) a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of any such Committed Borrowing, conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) in the case of a request for a Committed Borrowing, the Borrower with respect to which such request is

being made, whether such Committed Borrowing is requested to be comprised of Term Loans, Committed Primary Revolving Loans or Committed Singapore Revolving Loans and the currency thereof, (iv) in the case of a request for any such conversion or continuation, the Committed Borrowing with respect to which such request is being made, (v) the principal amount of Committed Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (vi) in the case of Committed Primary Revolving Loans that are Dollar Domestic Loans, the Type of Committed Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Committed Loans are to be converted and (vii) in the case of a request for a Committed Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, or of a conversion of existing Committed Loans to, or a continuation as, Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Committed Loan Notice requesting a Committed Borrowing fails to specify the requested currency thereof, then the Committed Loans so requested shall be made in Dollars. In the case of Committed Loan Notices requesting Committed Borrowings of Dollar Domestic Loans, if such Committed Loan Notice fails to specify the Type of the requested Loans, then the requested Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans. In the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, if, prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Company fails to give a timely notice of continuation thereof as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, then such Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall (A) in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans that are Dollar Domestic Loans, automatically be converted into a Base Rate Loan and (B) otherwise, automatically be continued as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan in its original currency with an Interest Period of one month, such conversion or continuation to be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to such Eurocurrency Rate Loan. If the Company requests a Committed Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. No Committed Loan may be converted into or continued as a Committed Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Committed Loan and reborrowed in the other currency.

(b) Following receipt of a written Committed Loan Notice requesting a Committed Borrowing, the Applicable Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s Share of the requested Committed Borrowing. Each applicable Lender shall make the amount of its Committed Loan available to the Applicable Agent in Same Day Funds at the Agent’s Office not later than 3:00 p.m., Specified Time, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. The Applicable Agent shall make all funds so received by it available to the applicable Borrower in like funds as received by such Agent by transfer to an account designated by such Borrower in a notice provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) such Agent.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan. During the existence of an Event of Default, (i) no Committed Primary Revolving Loans that are Dollar Domestic Loans may be converted to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Primary Revolving Lenders and (ii) no Committed Loans of any Class denominated in any Alternative Currency may be continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans with an Interest Period of

longer than one month without the consent of the Lenders holding a majority in interest of the Committed Loans of such Class.

(d) After giving effect to all Committed Borrowings, all conversions of Committed Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Committed Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect with respect to Committed Loans.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.02, the Company shall not request any Committed Borrowing that would result in a Committed Primary Revolving Loan in a principal amount less than €50,000 being made to any Dutch Borrower unless the Lender making such Loan shall theretofore have made a Committed Primary Revolving Loan to a Borrower in a principal amount not less than €50,000.

2.03 Letters of Credit. (a) The Letter of Credit Commitment. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) each L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Primary Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date to issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for the account of any Domestic Borrower or in Dollars or in any Alternative Currency for the account of any other Primary Revolving Borrower, and to amend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Primary Revolving Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Primary Revolving Borrowersand any L/C Disbursements thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (w) the Total Primary Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments, (x) any Primary Revolving Lender’s Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of the Total Primary Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed such Lender’s Primary Revolving Commitment, (y) the Total Primary Revolving Outstandings with respect to Domestic Borrowers shall not exceed the Domestic Borrowing Sublimit and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by the Company for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit for the account of any Primary Revolving Borrower shall be deemed to be a representation by the Company and such Primary Revolving Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Primary Revolving Borrowers’ ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Primary Revolving Borrowers may obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.

(iii) An L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

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

(B) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars or, in the case of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Primary Revolving Borrower that is not a Domestic Borrower, Euros (or any other Alternative Currency in which such L/C Issuer shall have agreed to issue Letters of Credit);

(C) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount of less than the Dollar Equivalent of $500,000;

(iv) An L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if such L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.

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

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

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.

(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Company delivered to the applicable L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Specified Time, at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify, in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer, (A) the requested date of issuance of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day), (B) the Primary Revolving Borrower for whose account such Letter of Credit is to be issued, (C) the amount and currency thereof, (D) the expiry date thereof, (E) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, (F) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder, (G) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder, and (H) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify, in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer, (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended, (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day), (3) the nature of the proposed amendment and (4) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may reasonably require. Additionally, the Company shall furnish to the applicable L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit, including any Issuer Documents, as such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in

writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. On the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, such L/C Issuer shall issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Primary Revolving Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices; provided, however, that no L/C Issuer shall make any L/C Credit Extension hereunder without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that such L/C Credit Extension would comply with the conditions set forth in the proviso set forth in Section 2.03(a)(i). Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof), each Primary Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, without any further action on the part of the applicable L/C Issuer or any Primary Revolving Lender, to have acquired from the applicable L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Primary Revolving Lender’s Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit, and, in consideration of the foregoing, irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to fund such participation in accordance with this Section 2.03.

(iii) If the Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, any L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit (each such Letter of Credit being referred to as an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”) that contains automatic extension provisions pursuant to which the expiry date of such Letter of Credit shall automatically be extended for a period of up to 12 months (but not, except as provided in Section 2.03(a)(ii)(B), beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension by giving notice to such effect (a “Non-Extension Notice”) to the beneficiary thereof prior to the then-applicable expiry date. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable L/C Issuer, neither the Company nor any other Primary Revolving Borrower shall be required to make a specific request to such L/C Issuer for any such extension. Subject to Section 2.03(a)(ii)(B), once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Primary Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit.

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(c)

Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the Company and the Administrative Agent thereof and whether such L/C Issuer has made or will make a payment thereunder (any such payment being referred to as an “L/C Disbursement”, and the date of any such payment being referred to as the “Honor Date”

thereof); provided, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the applicable Primary Revolving Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such L/C Issuer and the Primary Revolving Lenders, as applicable, with respect to any such L/C Disbursement. If an L/C Issuer shall make any L/C Disbursement, the applicable Primary Revolving Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Issuer by paying to the Administrative Agent, for account of such L/C Issuer, an amount equal to the amount of such L/C Disbursement, in the currency thereof, not later than 2:00 p.m., Specified Time, on the Business Day immediately following the day on which the Company receives notice of such L/C Disbursement (or, if the Company shall have received notice of such L/C Disbursement on a day that is not a Business Day, the second Business Day immediately following such day). If such Primary Revolving Borrower fails so to reimburse such L/C Issuer for such L/C Disbursement, such L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Primary Revolving Lender of the Honor Date of such L/C disbursement, the unreimbursed amount and currency thereof (the “Unreimbursed Amount”) and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount. Any notice given by any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such a confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Primary Revolving Lender shall, upon receipt of any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i), make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer, at the Agent’s Office, in an amount and currency equal to its Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 2:00 p.m., Specified Time, on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable L/C Issuer. The making of any L/C Advance shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the applicable Primary Revolving Borrower to reimburse each L/C Issuer for any L/C Disbursement made by such L/C Issuer, together with interest as provided herein.

(iii) If any L/C Issuer shall make any L/C Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Primary Revolving Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the Honor Date thereof, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the Honor Date to the date of reimbursement thereof, at the Default Rate. Interest accrued pursuant to this subsection shall be for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Primary Revolving Lender of its L/C Advance shall be for the account of such Primary Revolving Lender to the extent of such L/C Advance, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which the applicable Primary Revolving Borrower reimburses such L/C Disbursement in full.

(iv) Each Primary Revolving Lender’s obligation to make L/C Advances to reimburse each L/C Issuer for L/C Disbursements as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right

which such Primary Revolving Lender may have against such L/C Issuer, the Company, any Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth herein, no Primary Revolving Lender (1) shall have any obligation to make any L/C Advance to reimburse any L/C Issuer for any L/C Disbursement made under any Extended Letter of Credit after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and (2) shall otherwise be deemed to have any risk participation in any Extended Letter of Credit after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, except to the extent of any L/C Disbursements made under any Extended Letter of Credit prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date. The foregoing shall not affect the right of any L/C Issuer that shall have issued an Extended Letter of Credit to seek reimbursement for any L/C Disbursement made thereunder from the applicable Primary Revolving Borrower or from the Designated Cash Collateral therefor.

(v) If any Primary Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of any L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Primary Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Primary Revolving Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the applicable L/C Issuer submitted to any Primary Revolving Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (v) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)

Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any L/C Issuer has made an L/C Disbursement and has received from any Primary Revolving Lender such Primary Revolving Lender’s L/C Advance in respect thereof in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of such L/C Disbursement or interest thereon (whether directly from the Company or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Primary Revolving Lender its Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Primary Revolving Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same currency and funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of any L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Primary Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus

interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Primary Revolving Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Primary Revolving Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Loan Documents Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Obligations Absolute.The obligation of each Primary Revolving Borrower to reimburse each L/C Issuer for each L/C Disbursement shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

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

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

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

(v) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of any Alternative Currency to the Company or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or

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

The Company shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Company’s instructions or other irregularity, the Company will immediately notify the applicable L/C Issuer. The Company and each other Primary Revolving Borrower shall be

conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f) Role of L/C Issuer.Each Lender and each Primary Revolving Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, no L/C Issuer shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuers, the Agents, any of their respective Related Parties or any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Primary Revolving Lenders, the Required Primary Revolving Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (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 or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. Each Primary Revolving Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude any Primary Revolving Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuers, the Agents, any of their respective Related Parties or any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, a Primary Revolving Borrower may have a claim against an L/C Issuer, and such L/C Issuer may be liable to such Primary Revolving Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by such Primary Revolving Borrower and which such Primary Revolving Borrower proves were caused by such L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, any L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and no L/C Issuer shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g)

Cash Collateral.

(i) The Primary Revolving Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize L/C Obligations as provided in the definition of the term “Extended Letter of Credit” and in Sections 2.05(c)(i) and 8.02. Nothing in this subsection (g) shall affect the provisions of Section 10.21.

(ii) Any Cash Collateralization shall be made pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and, in the case of Cash Collateralization of L/C Obligations arising under any Extended Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer that is the issuer thereof. Subject to clause (iii) below, the Administrative Agent shall have sole and exclusive dominion and control, including the right of withdrawal, over any Cash Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall hold (A) any Cash Collateral that Cash Collateralizes L/C Obligations under any Extended Letter of Credit (such Cash Collateral being referred to as the “Designated Cash Collateral” in respect of such Extended Letter of Credit) as collateral for the payment and performance of such L/C Obligations and (B) any other Cash Collateral provided by any Primary Revolving Borrower as collateral for the payment and performance of L/C Obligations of such Primary Revolving Borrower, and may apply any such Cash Collateral to satisfy such payment or performance of such L/C Obligations. Each Primary Revolving Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Primary Revolving Lenders and the L/C Issuers as set forth in the preceding sentence and in clause (iii) below, a security interest in all Cash Collateral provided by such Primary Revolving Borrower.

(iii) Following the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, the Administrative Agent shall transfer any Designated Cash Collateral then held by it in respect of any Extended Letter of Credit to the L/C Issuer that is the issuer thereof (giving effect to the application of any Designated Cash Collateral to reimburse the Primary Revolving Lenders for any L/C Advances made to reimburse such L/C Issuer for L/C Disbursements under such Extended Letter of Credit made on or prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date), such transfer to be made in the manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer. From and after the effectiveness of such transfer, the Administrative Agent shall cease to have any dominion or control over such Designated Cash Collateral, and all such rights (including the exclusive right of withdrawal) shall be vested in such L/C Issuer. Each Primary Revolving Borrower hereby grants to each L/C Issuer, in respect of any Extended Letter of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, a security interest in all Designated Cash Collateral for such Extended Letter of Credit provided by such Primary Revolving Borrower.

(iv) If any Primary Revolving Borrower is required to provide Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 8.02(c), such Cash Collateral (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Primary Revolving Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If any Primary Revolving Borrower is required to provide Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(i), such Cash Collateral (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Primary Revolving Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Primary Revolving Borrowers would remain in compliance with Section 2.05(c)(i) and no Default shall have occurred and be continuing. If any Primary Revolving Borrower is required to provide Designated Cash Collateral with respect to any Extended Letter of Credit, then such Designated Cash Collateral (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Primary Revolving Borrower upon the expiration or termination of such Extended Letter of Credit and the repayment by such Primary Revolving Borrower

in full of all L/C Obligations arising therefrom and all fees and other amounts due to the applicable L/C Issuer in connection therewith.

(h) Applicability of ISP.Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Company when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

(i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Primary Revolving Lender in accordance with its Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage, in Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”)for each Letter of Credit (other than, following the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Extended Letter of Credit) equal to the Applicable Rate times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.05. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and (ii) due and payable on the fifth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Primary Revolving Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(j) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer.The Company shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate separately agreed to by such L/C Issuer and the Company, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the fifth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most recently ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.05. In addition, the Company shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer, for its own account, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(k) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(l) Reporting. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the daily activity (set forth by day) in respect of the Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding week, including all issuances, extensions, amendment and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on or prior to the Business Day on which such L/C Issuer expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred (and whether the amount thereof changed), and (iii) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, including but not limited to prompt verification of such information as may be requested by the Administrative Agent.

(m) Certain Existing Letter of Credit. The Company unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, in connection with the Existing Letter of Credit issued for the account of Pulse Italy S.r.L., it will be fully responsible for the reimbursement of L/C Disbursements, the payment of interest thereon and the payment of all other amounts due hereunder under such Existing Letter of Credit to the same extent as if the Company were the account party in respect of such Existing Letter of Credit.

2.04 Swing Line Loans. (a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Primary Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, to make, from time to time on any Business Day during the Revolving Availability Period, loans in Dollars (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Domestic Borrowers in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Committed Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations of the Primary Revolving Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Primary Revolving Lender’s Primary Revolving Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Primary Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments, (ii) no Primary Revolving Lender’s Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of the Total Primary Revolving Outstandings shall exceed such Lender’s Primary Revolving Commitment and (iii) the Total Primary Revolving Outstandings with respect to Domestic Borrowers shall not exceed the Domestic Borrowing Sublimit; provided, further, that no Domestic Borrower shall use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, each Domestic Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Primary Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, without any further action on the part of the Swing Line Lender or any Primary Revolving Lender, to have acquired from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Primary Revolving Lender’s Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan, and, in consideration of the foregoing, irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to fund such participation in accordance with this Section 2.04. Notwithstanding anything herein to the

contrary, the Swing Line Lender shall not be under any obligation to make any Swing Line Loan if a default of any Primary Revolving Lender’s obligation to fund under Section 2.04(c) exists or any Primary Revolving Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the Swing Line Lender has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Company (which may include a deposit of cash collateral by the applicable Domestic Borrower with a portion of the proceeds from such Swing Line Loan) or such other Primary Revolving Lender to eliminate the Swing Line Lender’s risk with respect to such Primary Revolving Lender.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., Specified Time, on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the Domestic Borrower with respect to which the request is being made, (ii) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (iii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. The Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the applicable Domestic Borrower by crediting the account of such Domestic Borrower with the Swing Line Lender in Same Day Funds.

(i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may, by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Specified Time, on any Business Day, request that the Primary Revolving Lenders fund on such Business Day their risk participations in all or a portion of the Swing Line Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans with respect to which Primary Revolving Lenders will be required to fund their risk participation. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Primary Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Line Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Primary Revolving Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of the amount specified in such notice available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m., Specified Time, on the

Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If any Primary Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Primary Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Primary Revolving Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to be made to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Primary Revolving Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (ii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iii) Each Primary Revolving Lender’s obligation to fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Domestic Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of any Domestic Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans made to it, together with interest as provided herein.

(d)

Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any Primary Revolving Lender has funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute (through the Administrative Agent) to such Primary Revolving Lender its Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Primary Revolving Lender’s risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Primary Revolving Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Primary

Revolving Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Loan Documents Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Domestic Borrowers for interest on the Swing Line Loans (which invoice may be made to the Company, on behalf of any other Domestic Borrower). Interest accrued pursuant to any Swing Line Loan shall be for the account of the Swing Line Lender, except that interest accrued on any Swing Line Loan on and after the date of funding by any Primary Revolving Lender of its risk participation therein shall be for the account of such Primary Revolving Lender to the extent of such funded risk participation.

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Domestic Borrowers shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and shall contain the selections by the Company required to be made pursuant to subsection (e) below. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Company, the applicable Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein; provided, however, in the case of any such notice given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Aggregate Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.06(b), such notice of prepayment may, prior to the date of prepayment set forth therein, be revoked by the Company if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.06(b).

which the Administrative Agent shall have received financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(b) is less than 2.50 to 1.00); provided, however, that (i) if the aggregate amount of any such prepayment of the Term Loans exceeds at any time the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding at such time, then the Borrowers shall (and the Company shall cause the Borrowers to) prepay, on the required date of such prepayment, the Committed Primary Revolving Loans or the Committed Singapore Revolving Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of the amount of such excess and the aggregate principal amount of the Committed Primary Revolving Loans and the Committed Singapore Revolving Loans outstanding at such time, (ii) if the Company shall, prior to the date of any such prepayment of the Term Loans, deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company to the effect that such prepayment cannot be accomplished by the Term Borrower without materially adverse tax consequences to the Company and its Subsidiaries and that, in place of all or any portion of such prepayment, the Borrowers will make a prepayment of the Committed Primary Revolving Loans or the Committed Singapore Revolving Loans (specifying the amount thereof to be prepaid), then the Term Borrower shall not be required to make any such prepayment if and to the extent that the Borrowers shall have prepaid, on the required date of such prepayment, the aggregate principal amount of the Committed Primary Revolving Loans or the Committed Singapore Revolving Loans and (iii) in the case of any such prepayment required to be made on account of Net Proceeds received by a Foreign Subsidiary, if at the time of such prepayment no Loans are outstanding other than Loans made to one or more Domestic Borrowers and the Company shall have delivered, prior to the date of such prepayment, to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company to the effect that the prepayment of such Loans cannot be accomplished without materially adverse tax consequences to the Company and its Subsidiaries, then no such prepayment shall be required; provided further, however, that, in the case of any event described in clause (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, if the Company shall, prior to the date of the required prepayment, deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer to the effect that the Company intends to cause the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate) to be applied within 180 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds to restore or replace the assets subject to such event, and certifying that no Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds from such event (or the portion of such Net Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable), in each case to the extent such Net Proceeds or such portion thereof do not exceed $10,000,000, except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds that have not been so applied by the end of such 180 day period, at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds that have not been so applied. The Company shall, to the extent practicable, notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by hand deliver or facsimile) of any prepayment required pursuant to this paragraph no later than 11:00 a.m., Specified Time, four Business Days prior to the date of prepayment.

The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the applicable

Class of its receipt of such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Share of such prepayment.

(e) Prior to any prepayment of any Loans under this Section, the Company shall (i) in the case of any prepayment pursuant to subsection (a) above, select the Class of Loans to be prepaid and (ii) in the case of any prepayment other than pursuant to subsection (b) above, select the Committed Borrowing or Committed Borrowings of the applicable Class to be prepaid. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment of Loans of any Class shall be applied to the Loans of such Class held by Lenders of such Class in accordance with such Lenders’ respective Shares.

(f) In the case of any mandatory prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan pursuant to subsection (c) above, each Borrower may, at its option, instead of making such mandatory prepayment by the time otherwise due hereunder, deposit on or prior to such time into the Prepayment Escrow Account (as defined below) an amount in cash equal to (and in the currency of) the amount of such mandatory prepayment. The Applicable Agent shall apply any funds on deposit in the Prepayment Escrow Account solely to prepay the Eurocurrency Rate Loan with respect to which such deposit was made on the last day of such Interest Period or, at the discretion of the Applicable Agent, on an earlier date if a Default shall have occurred and is continuing. For purposes of this paragraph, “Prepayment Escrow Account” means an account established by the applicable Borrower with the Applicable Agent and over which the Applicable Agent shall have sole and exclusive dominion and control, including the right of withdrawal of funds for application in accordance with this paragraph. Other than any interest earned on the investment of the funds on deposit in the Prepayment Escrow account, which investment shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Applicable Agent and at the applicable Borrower’s risk and expense (and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of the obligation to make any such prepayment in full), such funds shall not bear interest. Any funds remaining in the Prepayment Escrow Account upon the application of funds on deposit therein in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall be distributed by the Applicable Agent to the applicable Borrower.

(b) The Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments and the Aggregate Singapore Revolving Commitments shall automatically permanently reduce by the amount of the Committed Primary Revolving Loans or the Committed Primary Singapore Loans, as the case may be, prepaid pursuant to Section 2.05(d), the amount of each such reduction to be effective on the date of any such prepayment. The Applicable Agent will promptly notify the applicable Revolving Lenders of any such reduction of

the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments or the Aggregate Singapore Revolving Commitments.

(c) The Company may, upon written notice to the Applicable Agent, terminate the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments or the Aggregate Singapore Revolving Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments or the Aggregate Singapore Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Applicable Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Specified Time, three Business Days, in the case of the Primary Revolving Subfacility, or four Business Days, in the case of the Singapore Revolving Subfacility, prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Primary Revolving Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments, (iv) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Singapore Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Singapore Revolving Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Singapore Revolving Commitments and (v) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments, such Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. Any such notice of the termination of the Aggregate Commitments may state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence of the events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Applicable Agent prior to the specified date of effectiveness of such termination) if such condition is not satisfied. The Applicable Agent will promptly notify the applicable Revolving Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments or the Aggregate Singapore Revolving Commitments. The amount of any Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Letter of Credit Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Company.

(d) Any reduction of the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments or the Aggregate Singapore Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be applied to the Commitment of the applicable Class of each Lender in accordance with its Share.

(b) Any prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05 shall be applied to reduce ratably the subsequent scheduled repayments of Term Loans to be made pursuant to this Section.

(c) Prior to any repayment of any Term Loans under this Section, the Term Borrower shall select the Committed Borrowing or Committed Borrowings to be repaid and shall notify the Applicable Agent by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery or facsimile) of such selection. Each such repayment shall be applied to the Term Loans of Term Lenders in accordance with such Lenders’ respective Shares. Repayments of Term Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

(d) Each Revolving Borrower shall repay to the Revolving Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of Committed Revolving Loans made to such Borrower outstanding on such date.

(e) Each Domestic Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan made to such Domestic Borrower on the earlier to occur of (i) the date ten Business Days after such Loan is made and (ii) the Maturity Date.

2.08 Interest. (a) Committed Primary Revolving Loans that are Dollar Domestic Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as selected by the Company in accordance with this Agreement. All other Committed Loans shall be Eurocurrency Rate Loans. All Swing Line Loans shall be Base Rate Loans.

(b) Subject to the provisions of subsection (c) below, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate plus (in the case of a Committed Primary Revolving Loan that is made from a Lending Office in the United Kingdom or a Participating Member State) the Mandatory Cost; (ii) each Dollar Domestic Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing or conversion date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and (iii) each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(c) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by any Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any

applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then such amount shall (but only, unless an Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in Section 8.01(f) has occurred, upon the request of the Required Lenders) thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(iii) While any Event of Default exists, the Borrowers shall (but only, unless an Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in Section 8.01(f) has occurred, upon the request of the Required Lenders) pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Loan Documents Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

2.09

Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Section 2.03(i) and 2.03(j):

(a) Commitment Fee. The Company shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Primary Revolving Lender, in accordance with its Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Primary Revolving Commitments exceed the sum of (A) the Outstanding Amount of Committed Primary Revolving Loans and (B) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations and (ii) to the Singapore Administrative Agent for the account of each Singapore Revolving Lender, in accordance with its Applicable Singapore Revolving Percentage, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Singapore Revolving Commitments exceed the Outstanding Amount of Committed Singapore Revolving Loans. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Revolving Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the fifth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Commitment Fee Rate was in effect.

(b) Other Fees.The Company shall pay to the Arranger and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts, in Dollars, fees in the amounts

and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by reference to JPMCB’s “prime rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Interest rates and fees payable to Lenders hereunder shall be determined by the Applicable Agent, and each such determination by any such Agent shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.11 Evidence of Debt. (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Applicable Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Agents and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loan Documents Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of any Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of such Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender to a Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans to such Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

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

2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. (a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Applicable Agent, in each case for the account of the Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Agent’s Office in Same Day Funds not later than 1:00 p.m., Specified Time, on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all such payments in respect of any Loan or Letter of Credit shall be

made in the currency in which such Loan or Letter of Credit is denominated; all other payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. If, for any reason, any Primary Revolving Borrower or Singapore Revolving Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment by paying Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency payment. The Applicable Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Applicable Agent from the Borrowers after the time on which such payments are due shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Agents. Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Committed Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon, Specified Time, on the date of such Committed Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to such Agent such Lender’s share of such Committed Borrowing, such Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing available to such Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to such Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to such Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to such Agent for the same or an overlapping period, such Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing to such Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in such Committed Borrowing. Any payment by such Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to such Agent.

(ii) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Agents. Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to such Agent for the account of any of the Lenders or L/C Issuers hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, such Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such

payment, then each of the applicable Lenders or L/C Issuers, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to such Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or L/C Issuer, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to such Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

A notice of any Agent to any Lender, L/C Issuer or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

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

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Committed Loans and, in the case of the Primary Revolving Lenders, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans, and the obligations of the Lenders to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c), are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Committed Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c).

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

(f) Payments through the Agents. It is understood and agreed that the liabilities of the Borrowers for principal, interest, fees and other amounts payable hereunder to any Lender or any L/C Issuers in respect of the Term Loans, the Primary Revolving Subfacility or the Singapore Revolving Subfacility are owed to the Lending Office designated by such Lender or to such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and that the provisions contained herein requiring that such payments be made through any Agent are merely for the convenience of the parties and do not create any liability of the Borrowers to the Agents for such payments.

2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Committed Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Committed Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater

proportion shall (a) notify the Agents of such fact and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Committed Loans and, in the case of a Primary Revolving Lender, subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Primary Revolving Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Committed Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

(i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Committed Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.06(d) and 10.06(e), each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation or subparticipation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation or subparticipation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount thereof.

2.14

Reallocation of Revolving Commitments.

(a) Request for Reallocation. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Revolving Lenders), the Company may from time to time request (i) the reallocation of all or a portion of the Singapore Revolving Commitments of the Singapore Revolving Lenders to be the Primary Revolving Commitments of such Lenders (or their Affiliates), such reallocation to be made in accordance with each such Lender’s Share of the amount of the Singapore Revolving Commitments to be reallocated, or (ii) the reallocation of the Primary Revolving Commitments of the Primary Revolving Lenders to be the Singapore Revolving Commitments of such Lenders (or their Affiliates). Any such request for a reallocation shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and, in the case of any request under clause (a)(ii) above, the aggregate amount of the Primary Revolving Commitments requested to be reallocated (together with the aggregate amount of the Primary Revolving Commitments theretofore reallocated pursuant to clause (a)(ii) above) cannot exceed the aggregate amount of the Singapore Revolving Commitments theretofore reallocated pursuant to clause (a)(i) above. The Company may not make more than two such requests in any 12-month period. At the time of sending any such notice relating to a reallocation

pursuant to clause (a)(ii) above, the Company (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which the Primary Revolving Lenders are requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than 10 Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to such Lenders).

(b) Revolving Lender Consent. In the case of a reallocation pursuant to clause (a)(ii) above, each Primary Revolving Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it consents (which consent shall not, in the case of a Primary Revolving Lender with a Reallocated Primary Revolving Commitment, be unreasonably withheld with respect to the portion of such Lender’s Primary Revolving Commitment constituting a Reallocated Primary Revolving Commitment) to the decrease of its Primary Revolving Commitment and the increase of its (or its Affiliate’s) Singapore Revolving Commitment in an amount equal to its Share of such requested reallocation. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and each Revolving Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder.

(c) Effective Date and Allocations. The Administrative Agent and the Company shall determine the effective date of any reallocation under this Section 2.14 (the “Reallocation Effective Date”) and the Primary Revolving Commitments and the Singapore Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders after giving effect thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the other Agents, the Company and the Revolving Lenders of the reallocated Commitments and the Reallocation Effective Date. Any Affiliate of a Revolving Lender that shall acquire a Primary Revolving Commitment or a Singapore Revolving Commitment as a result of any reallocation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall, if such Affiliate is not then a Lender of the applicable Class, deliver to the Administrative Agent, no later than the applicable Reallocation Effective Date, an executed joinder agreement (the “Lender Joinder Agreement”), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent pursuant to which such Affiliate shall become a Lender hereunder.

(d) Conditions to Effectiveness of Reallocation. As a condition precedent to any such reallocation, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party, dated as of the Reallocation Effective Date and signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party, (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such reallocation, and (ii) in the case of the Company, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such reallocation, (A) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained in the Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Reallocation Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.14 the representations and warranties contained in Sections 5.05(a) and 5.05(b) (except with respect to the representation and warranty set forth in Section 5.05(a)(iv)) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(b), respectively, and (B) no Default exists on the Reallocation Effective Date. Any commitment fees accrued on the amount of the Singapore Revolving Commitments to be reallocated pursuant to clause (a)(i) or the Primary Revolving Commitments to be reallocated pursuant to clause (a)(ii) to the

applicable Reallocation Effective Date shall, in each case, be paid on such Reallocation Effective Date. The Revolving Borrowers shall prepay any Committed Primary Revolving Loans or Committed Singapore Revolving Loans, as applicable, outstanding on the Reallocation Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Committed Primary Revolving Loans and Committed Singapore Revolving Loans ratable with any revised Shares arising from any reallocation under this Section.

(e) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

2.15 Appointment of the Company as Agent of the Borrowers. (a) Each Borrower (other than the Company) hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes the Company as its agent and attorney-in-fact for purposes of (i) providing any notice or request notice under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) receiving any notice or other communication hereunder from any Agent or Lender (and any such notice or other communication provided to the Company shall be deemed to have been provided to each of the other Borrowers), (iii) providing any consent contemplated by Section 10.01 and (iv) taking any other action contemplated or permitted to be taken by a Borrower under the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Company hereby accepts such appointment by each Borrower.

(b) Each Borrower hereby expressly agrees that any Committed Loan Notice, any request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit or the making of a Swing Line Loan and any notice of prepayment under Section 2.05 or termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments under Section 2.06 given by the Company, and any other action taken by the Company under this Agreement or any other Loan Document on behalf of any Borrower, shall, in each case, be binding on such Borrower as if such notice or request has been given, or such action has been taken, by such Borrower, and enforceable against such Borrower in accordance with its terms.

2.16 Concerning Subsidiary Borrowers. (a) The Company may at any time and from time to time designate, (a) any Subsidiary to be a “Primary Revolving Borrower” with the prior written consent of (i) in the case of a designation of any Subsidiary that is organized and existing under the laws of the same jurisdiction as the jurisdiction of organization of any other Primary Revolving Borrower, the Required Primary Revolving Lenders and (ii) otherwise, each Primary Revolving Lender and (b) any Subsidiary to be a “Singapore Revolving Borrower” with the prior written consent of (i) in the case of a designation of any Subsidiary that is organized and existing under the laws of Singapore, the Required Singapore Revolving Lenders and (ii) otherwise, each Singapore Revolving Lender, in each case by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrower Joinder Agreement executed by such Subsidiary and the Company. Upon delivery of such Borrower Joinder Agreement, together with such supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, and receipt of such prior written consent of the Lenders, such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents be a Primary Revolving Borrower or a Singapore Revolving Borrower, as the case may be, and a party to this Agreement.

(b) The Company may at any time and from time to time terminate the designation of any Subsidiary as a “Primary Revolving Borrower” or a “Singapore Revolving Borrower”, in each case by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written notice to that effect and specifying therein the date of effectiveness of such termination; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall be reasonably satisfied (and the Company shall represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent in such notice) that no Loans made to, or Letters of Credit issued for the account of, of such Subsidiary are outstanding on the date of effectiveness of such termination and that all interest (and, to the extent notified by any Lender to the Administrative Agent, any other amounts payable under the Loan Documents) accrued under the Loan Documents as of the date of effectiveness of such termination and payable by such Subsidiary shall have been paid in full. Upon the delivery of any such notice to the Administrative Agent, the Subsidiary specified therein shall cease to have any right to have further Loans made or have Letters of Credit issued for its account.

ARTICLE III.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01 Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if any Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, each Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall indemnify each Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by such Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by the London Administrative Agent, the Singapore Administrative Agent, a Lender or an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of the London Administrative Agent, the Singapore Administrative Agent, a Lender or an L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes on behalf of any Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, if any, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Company (with a copy to the Administrative Agent and, if such Lender is an Singapore Revolving Lender, the Singapore Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or any Agent, to the extent that such Lender is reasonably able to do so in a timely manner, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Company or any Agent, shall, to the extent that such Lender is reasonably able to do so in a timely manner, deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or any Agent as will enable the Company or such Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Primary Revolving Lender that is a Foreign Lender with respect to such Borrower shall deliver to Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Company or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,

(ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

(iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Company to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

Without limiting the obligations of the Lenders set forth above regarding delivery of certain forms and documents to establish each Lender’s status for U.S. withholding tax purposes, if reasonably requested by the Company or any Agent, each Lender agrees promptly to deliver, to the extent that such Lender is reasonably able to do so in a timely manner, to the Company or such Agent such other documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the Laws of any other jurisdiction, duly executed and completed by such Lender, as are required under such Laws to confirm such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender outside of the U.S. by the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in such other jurisdiction. Each Lender shall, to the extent that such Lender is reasonably able to do so in a timely manner, promptly (i) notify the Administrative Agent (and, if such Lender is an Singapore Revolving Lender, the Singapore Administrative Agent) of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any such claimed exemption or reduction and (ii) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any such jurisdiction that any Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender. Additionally, if reasonably requested by any Lender or any Agent, each of the Borrowers shall promptly deliver to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent and, if such Lender is a Singapore Revolving Lender, the Singapore Administrative Agent) or such Agent such documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the Laws of any jurisdiction, duly executed and completed by such Borrower to the extent applicable to such Borrower, as are required to be furnished by such Lender or Agent under such Laws in connection with any payment by any Agent or any Lender of Taxes or Other Taxes, or otherwise in connection with the Loan Documents, with respect to such jurisdiction.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer determines, in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the request of such Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer in the event such Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other

information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurocurrency Rate Loans (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Company through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies, under the affected Class of Loans or Commitments or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in Dollars, to convert Dollar Domestic Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable and such Loans are denominated in Dollars, convert all such Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If (a) the Required Term Lenders, in the case of a determination in respect of the Term Facility, (b) the Required Primary Revolving Lenders, in the case of a determination in respect of the Primary Revolving Subfacility, or (c) the Required Singapore Revolving Lenders, in the case of a determination in respect of the Singapore Revolving Subfacility, determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (i) deposits (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) or (iii) the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, and such Lenders advise the Administrative Agent accordingly, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender of the applicable Class. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Term Lenders, the Required Primary Revolving Lenders or the Required Singapore Revolving Lenders, as applicable) revokes such notice (which such Lenders agree promptly to do upon becoming aware that the applicable condition described in clauses (i) through (iii) above have ceased to exist), (A) any request for a Committed Borrowing of, or conversion to, Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be ineffective, (B) any request for continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans that are Dollar Domestic Loans shall be deemed to be a request to convert such Eurocurrency Rate Loans, at the end of the Interest Period then applicable thereto, into Base Rate Loans and (C) each outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency or made

to a Foreign Borrower shall, at the end of the Interest Period then applicable thereto, bear interest at the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Rate Loans plus a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be representative of the Lenders’ cost of funding such Loans. Each determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.03 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

3.04

Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate Loans.

(a)

Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except (A) any reserve requirement reflected in the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate” and (B) the requirements of the Bank of England and the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank reflected in the Mandatory Cost, other than as set forth below) or any L/C Issuer;

(ii) subject any Lender or any L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or such L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or such L/C Issuer);

(iii) the Mandatory Cost, as calculated hereunder, does not represent the cost to any Lender of complying with the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank in relation to its making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Loans; or

(iv) impose on any Lender or any L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or such L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or such L/C Issuer, the Company will pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding

capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Company will pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or an L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation, provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or an L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.05 Compensation for Losses. (a) Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Company shall promptly compensate (or cause the applicable Borrower to compensate) such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

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

(ii) any failure by any Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Eurocurrency

Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Company or the applicable Borrower (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under this Agreement); or

(iii) any assignment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 10.13;

including any loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Company (or the applicable Borrower) to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Base Rate used in determining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

(b) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any loss, cost or expense suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender demands compensation therefor pursuant to this Section.

3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or to such Borrower. The Company hereby agrees to pay (or to cause the applicable Borrower to pay) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, the Company may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

3.07 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments and repayment of all other Loan Documents Obligations hereunder.

In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such L/C Issuer unless such Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.

Any resignation by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute the resignation of each Affiliate or branch of the Administrative Agent that has been appointed in such capacity from being the London Administrative Agent or the Singapore Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as an Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agents, and each retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section).

After a retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while such retiring Agent was acting as an Agent.

Any resignation by JPMCB as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender.

117

9.07 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Arranger, any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

No failure by any Lender, any Agent or any L/C Issuer to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of any Credit Extension shall not be construed as a waiver of any

124

thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Company or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Company or such other Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Company for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to any Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any L/C Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent (or any such sub-agent), such L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for such Agent (or any such sub-agent) or L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d). For purposes of this subsection, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans, the Total Primary Revolving Outstandings, the Total Singapore Revolving Outstandings and the unused Commitments at the time.

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet) in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section 10.04 shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor.

(f) Survival. The agreements in this Section 10.04 shall survive the resignation of the Agents and the L/C Issuers, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Loan Documents Obligations.

125

To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to any Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, or any Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any Agent, any L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and (b) each Lender and each L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to each Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by such Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Loan Documents Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

10.06 Successors and Assigns. (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (A) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (B) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section or (C) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that:

(i) except in the case of (A) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class or (B) an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, the aggregate amount of the Commitment of such Class (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment of any Class is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of such Class of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent, shall not be less than

126

(x) $1,000,000, in the case of assignments under the Term Facility, and (y) $5,000,000, in the case of assignments under the Primary Revolving Subfacility or the Singapore Revolving Subfacility, unless, in each case, each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met; provided further, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.06, no assignment shall be permitted that would result in the transfer of any outstanding Committed Primary Revolving Loan made to a Dutch Borrower in a principal amount less than €50,000 unless the Eligible Assignee to which such assignment is made shall be a Primary Revolving Lender that shall theretofore have made a Committed Primary Revolving Loan to a Borrower in a principal amount not less than €50,000;

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment of the Class being assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(iii) each such assignment shall require prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

(A) the Company, provided that no consent of the Company shall be required for an assignment to (x) a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (y) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Eligible Assignee; and

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

(iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

(v) the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which such Eligible Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Company, its Subsidiaries and its and their Related Parties or securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Securities Laws.

127

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and shall deliver to the Company the Note, if any, in its favor marked “cancelled”) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, each Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by each of the Borrowers, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower, any Agent, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Company or any Subsidiary) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Agents, the other Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso

128

to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitation upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note(s), if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

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

10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Agents, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of

129

this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or prospective Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to a Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to any Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Company or any Subsidiary relating to the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to any Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of information received from the Company or any Subsidiary after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Agents, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including Federal and state securities Laws. All such information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Company or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information concerning the Company and the Subsidiaries and their securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Company and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal, state and foreign securities laws.

10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all of the obligations then due of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender or such L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or such L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, each L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such L/C Issuer or their

130

respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Loan Documents Obligations hereunder.

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

10.11 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit (other than, following the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Extended Letter of Credit) is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.

The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.13 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, modification, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 10.01 requires the consent of all the Lenders or each Lender affected thereby and with respect to which the Required Lenders have granted their consent or if any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Company the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(a) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent;

(b) the Company shall have paid (or caused another Loan Party to pay) to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b);

(c) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, L/C Advances and funded risk participations in Swing Line Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal, L/C Advances, participations and accrued interest and fees) or the Company or other applicable Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(d) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments;

132

(e) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a failure to provide a consent, the assignee shall have given such consent; and

(f)

such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender (if not a Defaulting Lender) or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

134

may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency.

If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

10.18 No Fiduciary Duty. Each Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Company, its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Agents, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications.

10.19 Concerning Sonion Loan Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the obligations of any Sonion Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than any obligations in respect of Credit Extensions made to such Sonion Loan Party) shall be deemed not to be assumed or shall be limited, as the case may be, to the extent required for the such obligations not to constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Sections 115(1) and (2) of the Danish Public Companies Act (Aktieselskabsloven), Consolidation Act No. 649 of 15 June 2006 and Sections 49(1) and (2) of the Danish Private Companies Act (Anpartselskabsloven), Consolidation Act No. 650 of 15 June 2006, except to the extent that Danish law would otherwise uphold such obligations of such Sonion Loan Party.

135

consent of any Secured Party and at the Company’s expense, execute and deliver all documents that the Company shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

(b) Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein or in any other Loan Document, the Guarantees provided under the Guarantee Agreement and the Liens created under the Security Documents shall terminate when all the Loan Documents Obligations (other than contingent obligations for indemnification, expense reimbursement, tax gross-up or yield protection as to which no claim has been made) have been indefeasibly paid in full, all Commitments have terminated or expired, the L/C Obligations have been reduced to zero and the L/C Issuers have no further obligations to issue Letters of Credit hereunder.

(d) In the event that, subsequent to the release of Liens under the Security Documents pursuant to subsection (c) above, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio at the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company shall exceed 2.50 to 1.00, (i) the provisions of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and each other provision of this Agreement that has been deemed to be ineffective pursuant to subsection (c) above shall cease to be ineffective and shall be deemed to be reinstated and in full force and effect, (ii) the Company shall cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied as promptly as practicable after the end of such fiscal quarter and in any event within 30 days thereunder and (iii) the provisions of subsection (c) above shall be deemed to be ineffective.

ARTICLE XI.

COLLECTION ALLOCATION MECHANISM

(a) On the CAM Exchange Date, (i) the Commitments shall automatically and without further act be terminated as provided in Article VIII and (ii) the Lenders shall automatically and without further act be deemed to have made reciprocal purchases of interests in the Designated Obligations such that, in lieu of the interests of each Lender in the particular Designated Obligations that it shall own as of such date and immediately prior to the CAM Exchange, such Lender shall own an interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in each Designated Obligation. Each Lender, each Person acquiring a participation from any Lender as contemplated by Section 10.06 and each Borrower hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange. Each Borrower and each Lender agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent all such Notes and other instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests and obligations of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees to surrender any Notes originally received by it hereunder to the Administrative Agent against delivery of any Notes so executed and delivered; provided that the failure of any Borrower to execute or deliver or of any Lender to accept any such Note, instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange.

(b) As a result of the CAM Exchange, on and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by any Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Designated Obligations shall be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages (to be redetermined as of each such date of payment or distribution to the extent required by subsection (c) below).

(c) In the event that, after the CAM Exchange, the aggregate amount of the Designated Obligations shall change as a result of the making of an L/C Disbursement

137

by an L/C Issuer that is not reimbursed by the applicable Primary Revolving Borrower, then (i) each Primary Revolving Lender shall, in accordance with Section 2.03(c), make an L/C Advance to the applicable L/C Issuer in the amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Primary Revolving Percentage of such L/C Disbursement (without giving effect to the CAM Exchange), (ii) the Administrative Agent shall redetermine the CAM Percentages after giving effect to such L/C Disbursement and the L/C Advances made by the Primary Revolving Lenders (using the applicable Spot Rates in effect at or around the time of such L/C Disbursement solely for the purpose of determining the amount of the Designated Obligations resulting therefrom), and the Lenders shall automatically and without further act be deemed to have made reciprocal purchases of interests in the Designated Obligations such that each Lender shall own an interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage (as so redetermined) in each of the Designated Obligations and (iii) in the event distributions shall have been made in accordance with subsection (b) above, the Lenders shall make such payments to one another as shall be necessary in order that the amounts received by them shall be equal to the amounts they would have received had each L/C Disbursement been outstanding immediately prior to the CAM Exchange. Each such redetermination shall be binding on each Lender and its successors and assigns and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

138

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Credit Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
