The Company represents and warrants to each Purchaser that:

Section 5.1.    Organization; Power and Authority.
The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Company has the corporate power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Notes and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof.

Section 5.2.    Authorization, Etc.


-4-
    







This Agreement and the Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

Section 5.3.    Disclosure.
The Company, through its agents, JPMorgan Securities, LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of a Private Placement Memorandum, dated October 2017 (the “Memorandum”), relating to the transactions contemplated hereby.  This Agreement, the Memorandum, the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company prior to October 18, 2017 in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and identified in Schedule 5.3 (this Agreement, the Memorandum and such documents, certificates or other writings and such financial statements delivered to each Purchaser being referred to, collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents”), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made, and all financial projections concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to the transactions contemplated hereby contained in the Disclosure Documents (the “Projections”) have been prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by the preparer thereof to be reasonable at the time of preparation and at the time such Projections are furnished (it being understood that Projections by their nature are inherently uncertain and no assurances are being given that the results reflected in such projections will be achieved and any differences from the projected results may be material).  Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since December 31, 2016, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business or properties of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries except changes that individually or in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.4.    Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries.
(a)    As of the date hereof, Schedule 5.4 contains (except as noted therein) a complete and correct list of (a) the Company’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary and whether such Subsidiary is a Guarantor, and (b) the Company’s directors and senior officers.
(b)    All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of each Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.4 as being owned by the Company and its Subsidiaries have been validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Company or another Subsidiary free and clear of any Lien (except as disclosed in Schedule 5.4).


-5-
    







(c)    Each Subsidiary identified in Schedule 5.4 is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease and to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact.
(d)    No Subsidiary is subject to any legal, regulatory, contractual or other restriction (other than the agreements listed on Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by corporate law or similar statutes) restricting the ability of such Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar distributions of profits to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of such Subsidiary.

Section 5.5.    Financial Statements; Material Liabilities.
The Company has delivered to each Purchaser copies of the financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed in Schedule 5.5.  All of said financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates so specified in such Schedule and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments).  Since the date of the most recent financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed in Schedule 5.5, the Company and its Subsidiaries have not incurred any Material liabilities of the type that would be required to be disclosed in the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP that are not disclosed in the Disclosure Documents.

Section 5.6.    Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, Etc.
The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Notes will not (a) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter, regulations or by-laws, shareholders agreement or any other Material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected, (b) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or (c) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary.

Section 5.8.    Litigation; Observance of Statutes and Orders.
(a)    There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any property of the Company or any Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(b)    Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is (i) in violation of any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, any arbitrator of any kind or any Governmental Authority or (ii) in violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority (including Environmental Laws, the USA PATRIOT Act or any of the other laws and regulations that are referred to in Section 5.16), which violation would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.9.    Taxes.
The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments payable by them, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any taxes and assessments (a) the amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or (b) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP.  The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of U.S. federal, state or other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate.  The U.S. federal income tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been determined (whether by reason of completed audits or the statute of limitations having run) for all fiscal years up to and including the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

Section 5.10.    Title to Property; Leases.
The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and sufficient title to their respective Material properties, including all such properties reflected in the most recent audited balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5 or purported to have been acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary after said date (except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in each case free

Section 5.11.    Licenses, Permits, Etc.
The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess all licenses, permits, authorizations, patents, copyrights, proprietary software, service marks, trademarks, trade names and other similar property, or rights thereto, that, individually or in the aggregate, are Material, without known conflict with the rights of others, except for those conflicts that, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(a)    with respect to the Called Principal of any Non-Swapped Note denominated in U.S. Dollars, the sum of (i) 0.50% (or in the case of determining the Make-Whole Amount in connection with a prepayment under Section 8.8, 1.00%) plus (ii) the yield to maturity implied by the “Ask Yield(s)” reported as of 10:00 A.M. (New York time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (herein, “Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date.  If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (1) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (2) interpolating linearly between the “Ask Yields” Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (A) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (B) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life.  The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.
If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Non-Swapped Note denominated in U.S. Dollars, the sum of (x) 0.50% (or in the case of determining the Make-Whole Amount in connection with a prepayment under Section 8.8, 1.00%) plus (y) the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date.  If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (I) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (II) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life.  The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Non-Swapped Note; and
(b)    with respect to the Called Principal of any Non-Swapped Note denominated in Euros, the sum of (i) 0.50% (or in the case of determining the Make-Whole Amount in connection with a prepayment under Section 8.8, 1.00%) plus (ii) the yield to maturity implied by (1) the “Ask Yield(s)” reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York time) on the second 


-20-
    







Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PXGE” on Bloomberg Financial Markets (or such other display as may replace “Page PXGE” on Bloomberg Financial Markets) for the benchmark German Bund having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (2) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported are not ascertainable, the average of the “Ask Yields” as determined by Recognized German Bund Market Makers.  Such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (A) converting quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (B) interpolating linearly between (x) the benchmark German Bund with the maturity closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (y) the benchmark German Bund with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life.
The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Non-Swapped Note.
“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Non-Swapped Note, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Non-Swapped Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under such Non-Swapped Note, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.8 or Section 12.1.
“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Non-Swapped Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.8 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.
(b)    Make-Whole Amount with respect to Swapped Notes.  The term “Make Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Swapped Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Swapped Note Discounted Value with respect to the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount related to such Swapped Note over such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero.  For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount with respect to any Swapped Note, the following terms have the following meanings:


-21-
    







“New Swap Agreement” means any cross-currency swap agreement pursuant to which the holder of a Swapped Note is to receive payment in U.S. Dollars and which is entered into in full or partial replacement of an Original Swap Agreement as a result of such Original Swap Agreement having terminated for any reason other than a non-scheduled prepayment or a repayment of such Swapped Note prior to its scheduled maturity.  The terms of a New Swap Agreement with respect to any Swapped Note do not have to be identical to those of the Original Swap Agreement with respect to such Swapped Note.
“Original Swap Agreement” means, with respect to any Swapped Note, (i) a cross-currency swap agreement and annexes and schedules thereto (an “Initial Swap Agreement”) that is entered into on an arm’s length basis by the original purchaser of such Swapped Note (or any affiliate thereof) in connection with the execution of this Agreement and purchase of such Swapped Note and relates to the scheduled payments by the Company of interest and principal on such Swapped Note, under which the holder of such Swapped Note is to receive payments from the counterparty thereunder in U.S. Dollars and which is more particularly described on Schedule 8.6(b), (ii) any Initial Swap Agreement that has been assumed (without any waiver, amendment, deletion or replacement of any material economic term or provision thereof) by a holder of a Swapped Note in connection with a transfer of such Swapped Note and (iii) any Replacement Swap Agreement; and a “Replacement Swap Agreement” shall mean, with respect to any Swapped Note, a cross-currency swap agreement and annexes and schedules thereto with payment terms and provisions (other than a reduction in notional amount, if applicable) identical to those of the Initial Swap Agreement with respect to such Swapped Note that is entered into on an arm’s length basis by the holder of such Swapped Note in full or partial replacement (by amendment, modification or otherwise) of such Initial Swap Agreement (or any subsequent Replacement Swap Agreement) in a notional amount not exceeding the outstanding principal amount of such Swapped Note following a non-scheduled prepayment or a repayment of such Swapped Note prior to its scheduled maturity.  Any holder of a Swapped Note that enters into, assumes or terminates an Initial Swap Agreement or Replacement Swap Agreement shall within a reasonable period of time thereafter deliver to the Company a summary of the principal terms thereof.
“Swap Agreement” means, with respect to any Swapped Note, an Original Swap Agreement or a New Swap Agreement, as the case may be.
“Swapped Note” means any Note that as of the Closing Day is subject to a Swap Agreement.  A “Swapped Note” shall no longer be deemed a “Swapped Note” at such time as the related Swap Agreement ceases to be in force in respect thereof.
“Swapped Note Called Notional Amount” means, with respect to any Swapped Note Called Principal of any Swapped Note, the payment in U.S. Dollars due to the holder of such Swapped Note under the terms of the Swap Agreement to which such holder is a party, attributable to and in exchange for such Swapped Note Called Principal and assuming that such Swapped Note Called Principal is paid on its scheduled maturity date, provided that if such Swap Agreement is not an Initial Swap Agreement, then the “Swapped Note 


-22-
    







Called Notional Amount” in respect of such Swapped Note shall not exceed the amount in U.S. Dollars which would have been due to the holder of such Swapped Note under the terms of the Initial Swap Agreement to which such holder was a party (or if such holder was never party to an Initial Swap Agreement, then the last Initial Swap Agreement to which the most recent predecessor in interest to such holder as a holder of such Swapped Note was a party), attributable to and in exchange for such Swapped Note Called Principal and assuming that such Swapped Note Called Principal is paid on its scheduled maturity date.
“Swapped Note Called Principal” means, with respect to any Swapped Note, the principal of such Swapped Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.8 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.
“Swapped Note Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount of any Swapped Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.8 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires, the amount obtained by discounting all Swapped Note Remaining Scheduled Swap Payments corresponding to the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount of such Swapped Note from their respective scheduled due dates to the Swapped Note Settlement Date with respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on such Swapped Note is payable) equal to the Swapped Note Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount.
“Swapped Note Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount of any Swapped Note, 0.50% (or in the case of determining the Make-Whole Amount in connection with a prepayment under Section 8.8, 1.00%) over the yield to maturity implied by the “Ask Yield(s)” reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York time) on the second Business Day preceding the Swapped Note Settlement Date with respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities (herein, “Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Swapped Note Remaining Average Life of such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount as of such Swapped Note Settlement Date.  If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Swapped Note Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (i) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (ii) interpolating linearly between the ask yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Swapped Note Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Swapped Note Remaining Average Life.  The Swapped Note Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Swapped Note.


-23-
    







If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Swapped Note Reinvestment Yield” shall mean, with respect to the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount of any Swapped Note, 0.50% (or in the case of determining the Make-Whole Amount in connection with a prepayment under Section 8.8, 1.00%) over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Swapped Note Settlement Date with respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Swapped Note Remaining Average Life of such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount as of such Swapped Note Settlement Date.  If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Swapped Note Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (A) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Swapped Note Remaining Average Life and (B) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Swapped Note Remaining Average Life.  The Swapped Note Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Swapped Note.
“Swapped Note Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (1) the principal component of each Swapped Note Remaining Scheduled Swap Payments with respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount by (2) the number of years computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Swapped Note Settlement Date with respect to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount and the scheduled due date of such Swapped Note Remaining Scheduled Payments.
“Swapped Note Remaining Scheduled Swap Payments” means, with respect to the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount relating to any Swapped Note, the payments due to the holder of such Swapped Note in U.S. Dollars under the terms of the Swap Agreement to which such holder is a party which correspond to all payments of the Swapped Note Called Principal of such Swapped Note corresponding to such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount and interest on such Swapped Note Called Principal (other than that portion of the payment due under such Swap Agreement corresponding to the interest accrued on the Swapped Note Called Principal to the Swapped Note Settlement Date) that would be due after the Swapped Note Settlement Date in respect of such Swapped Note Called Notional Amount assuming that no payment of such Swapped Note Called Principal is made prior to its originally scheduled payment date, provided that if such Swapped Note Settlement Date is not a date on which an interest payment is due to be made under the terms of such Swapped Note, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Swapped Note Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Swapped Note Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.8 or Section 12.1.


-24-
    







“Swapped Note Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount of any Swapped Note Called Principal of any Swapped Note, the date on which such Swapped Note Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.8 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.
(c)    Make-Whole Amount Currency of Payment.  All payments of Make-Whole Amount in respect of (1) any Non-Swapped Note that is denominated in Euros, shall be made in Euros, and (2) any Non-Swapped Note that is denominated in U.S. Dollars or any Swapped Note, shall be made in U.S. Dollars.

Section 8.7.    Swap Breakage.
(a)    If any Swapped Note is prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.8 or Section 8.9, or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, then (i) any resulting Net Loss in connection therewith shall be reimbursed to the holder of such Swapped Note by the Company in U.S. Dollars upon any such prepayment or repayment of such Swapped Note and (ii) any resulting Net Gain in connection therewith shall be deducted (1) from the Make-Whole Amount, if any, or any principal or interest to be paid to the holder of such Swapped Note by the Company upon any such prepayment of such Swapped Note pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.8 or Section 8.9 or (2) from the Make-Whole Amount, if any, to be paid to the holder of such Swapped Note by the Company upon any such repayment of such Swapped Note pursuant to Section 12.1, provided that, in either case, the Make-Whole Amount in respect of such Swapped Note may in no event be less than zero.  Each holder of a Swapped Note shall be responsible for calculating its own Net Loss or Net Gain, as the case may be, and Swap Breakage Amount in U.S. Dollars upon the prepayment or repayment of all or any portion of such Swapped Note, and such calculations as reported to the Company in reasonable detail shall be binding on the Company absent demonstrable error.
(b)    As used in this Section 8.7 with respect to any Swapped Note that is prepaid or accelerated: “Net Loss” means the amount, if any, by which the sum of the Swapped Note Called Notional Amount and the Swapped Note Called Notional Accrued Interest Amount exceeds the sum of (i) the sum of the Swapped Note Called Principal and the Swapped Note Called Accrued Interest Amount plus (or minus in the case of an amount paid) (ii) the Swap Breakage Amount received (or paid) by the holder of such Swapped Note; and “Net Gain” means the amount, if any, by which the sum of Swapped Note Called Notional Amount and the Swapped Note Called Notional Accrued Interest Amount is exceeded by the sum of (1) the sum of the Swapped Note Called Principal and the Swapped Note Called Accrued Interest Amount plus (or minus in the case of an amount paid) (2) the Swap Breakage Amount received (or paid) by such holder.  For purposes of any determination of any “Net Loss” or “Net Gain,” the Swapped Note Called Principal and the Swapped Note Called Accrued Interest Amount shall be determined by the holder of the affected Swapped Note by converting Euros (in the case of any Swapped Note that is denominated in Euros) into U.S. Dollars at the current Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate, as determined as of 10:00 


-25-
    







A.M. (New York time) on the day such Swapped Note is prepaid or accelerated as indicated on the applicable screen of Bloomberg Financial Markets and any such calculation shall be reported to the Company in reasonable detail and shall be binding on the Company absent demonstrable error.
“Swapped Note Called Accrued Interest Amount” means, with respect to a Swapped Note, the accrued interest of such Swapped Note to the Swapped Note Settlement Date that is to be prepaid or has become immediately due and payable, as the context requires.
“Swapped Note Called Notional Accrued Interest Amount” means, with respect to any Swapped Note Called Notional Amount, the payment due in Dollars to the holder of the related Swapped Note under the terms of the Swap Agreement to which such holder is a party attributable to and in exchange for the Swapped Note Called Accrued Interest Amount.
(c)    As used in this Section 8.7, “Swap Breakage Amount” means, with respect to the Swap Agreement associated with any Swapped Note, in determining the Net Loss or Net Gain, the amount that would be received (in which case the Swap Breakage Amount shall be positive) or paid (in which case the Swap Breakage Amount shall be negative) by the holder of such Swapped Note as if such Swap Agreement had terminated due to the occurrence of an event of default or an early termination under the ISDA 1992 Multi-Currency Cross Border Master Agreement or ISDA 2002 Master Agreement, as applicable (the “ISDA Master Agreement”); provided, however, that if such holder (or its predecessor in interest with respect to such Swapped Note) was, but is not at the time, a party to an Original Swap Agreement but is a party to a New Swap Agreement, then the Swap Breakage Amount shall mean the lesser of (i) the gain or loss (if any) which would have been received or incurred (by payment, through off-set or netting or otherwise) by the holder of such Swapped Note under the terms of the Original Swap Agreement (if any) in respect of such Swapped Note to which such holder (or any affiliate thereof) was a party (or if such holder was never a party to an Original Swap Agreement, then the last Original Swap Agreement to which the most recent predecessor in interest to such holder as a holder of a Swapped Note was a party) and which would have arisen as a result of the payment of the Swapped Note Called Principal on the Swapped Note Settlement Date and (ii) the gain or loss (if any) actually received or incurred by the holder of such Swapped Note, in connection with the payment of such Swapped Note Called Principal on the Swapped Note Settlement Date, under the terms of the New Swap Agreement to which such holder (or any affiliate thereof) is a party.  The holder of such Swapped Note will make all calculations related to the Swap Breakage Amount in good faith and in accordance with its customary practices for calculating such amounts under the ISDA Master Agreement pursuant to which such Swap Agreement shall have been entered into and assuming for the purpose of such calculation that there are no other transactions entered into pursuant to such ISDA Master Agreement (other than such Swap Agreement).
(d)    The Swap Breakage Amount shall be payable in U.S. Dollars.

Section 8.8.    Offer to Prepay Notes Upon Certain Asset Sales.


-26-
    







(a)    Notice of Significant Asset Sale Event.  The Company will, within 10 Business Days after the occurrence of a Significant Asset Sale Event, give an Asset Sale Notice to each holder of Notes specifying, among other things, whether the Excess Proceeds attributable to such Significant Asset Sale Event will be applied to either or both (in the case of both, specifying the relevant amounts to be applied to each application) a Property Reinvestment Application or to a prepayment of the Notes as provided in this Section 8.8.  If such notice specifies application of all or a part of such Excess Proceeds to a Property Reinvestment Application, then the Company shall be obligated so to apply such amount of Excess Proceeds within 180 days after the occurrence of the Significant Asset Sale Event; provided that, at any time during such period, the Company may apply such amount of Excess Proceeds to a prepayment of the Notes as provided in this Section 8.8 in lieu of a Property Reinvestment Application, provided, further, that the failure to apply such amount of Excess Proceeds to either a Property Reinvestment Application or to the prepayment of the Notes prior to the expiration of such period shall constitute an Event of Default.  Until such time as the entire amount reserved for a Property Reinvestment Application has been applied as provided in the preceding sentence, the Company shall apply the entire amount of Excess Proceeds arising from any subsequent Significant Asset Sale Event to the prepayment of the Notes as provided in this Section 8.8.  If the notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 8.8(a) shall specify a prepayment of the Notes, such notice shall contain and constitute an offer to prepay Notes as described in paragraph (b) of this Section 8.8 and shall be accompanied by the certificate described in paragraph (e) of this Section 8.8.
(b)    Offer to Prepay Notes.  The offer to prepay Notes contemplated by paragraph (a) of this Section 8.8 shall be an offer to prepay, in accordance with and subject to this Section 8.8, all or a portion of the Notes held by each holder (in this case only, “holder” in respect of any Note registered in the name of a nominee for a disclosed beneficial owner shall mean such beneficial owner) on a date specified in such offer (the “Proposed Prepayment Date”) that is a Business Day not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days after the date of such offer (if the Proposed Prepayment Date shall not be specified in such offer, the Proposed Prepayment Date shall be the Business Day nearest to the 30th day after the date of such offer).  The offer to prepay Notes under this paragraph (b) shall be made pro rata to each holder of Notes (based on the aggregate principal amount of the Notes held by each such holder) in an aggregate amount equal to the Excess Proceeds (as defined below).
(c)    Acceptance; Rejection.  A holder of Notes may accept the offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.8 by causing a notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Company not more than 10 Business Days after receipt of the offer to prepay the Notes pursuant to this Section 8.8.  A failure by a holder of Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.8 shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder.
(d)    Prepayment.  Prepayment of the Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.8 shall be at 100% of the principal amount of such Notes, plus the Make-Whole Amount 


-27-
    







determined for the date of prepayment with respect to such principal amount.  The prepayment shall be made on the Proposed Prepayment Date.
(e)    Officer’s Certificate.  Each offer to prepay the Notes pursuant to this Section 8.8 shall be accompanied by a certificate, executed by a Senior Financial Officer of the Company and dated the date of such offer, specifying:  (i) the Proposed Prepayment Date; (ii) that such offer is made pursuant to this Section 8.8; (iii) the principal amount of each Note offered to be prepaid; (iv) the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment of Notes (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of prepayment); (v) the interest that would be due on each Note offered to be prepaid, accrued to the Proposed Prepayment Date; (vi) that the conditions of this Section 8.8 have been fulfilled; and (vii) in reasonable detail, the nature and date of the Significant Asset Sale Event. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.
(f)    “Significant Asset Sale Event” and “Excess Proceeds” Defined.
(i)    “Significant Asset Sale Event” means any sale, lease or other disposition of assets (including the sale of stock or other equity interests in its Subsidiaries) (sometimes hereinafter referred to, except for Excluded Sales, as an “Asset Disposition”) of the Company and its Subsidiaries in which the book value of such assets, when added to the book value of all other assets sold, leased or otherwise disposed of by the Company and its Subsidiaries during any period of 365 consecutive days, exceeds 20% of the book value of Consolidated Total Assets, determined as of the end of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding such Asset Disposition (the “Threshold Amount”); provided that each of the following transactions shall be excluded from any determination of a Significant Asset Sale Event (collectively, the “Excluded Sales”): (1) the sale, lease or other disposition of assets in the ordinary course of business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (2) Excluded Sale and Leaseback Transactions, (3) any transfer of assets from the Company to any Subsidiary or from any Subsidiary to the Company or another Subsidiary, and (4) Receivables and related assets sold in connection with Securitization Transactions.

The aggregate Net Proceeds so attributable in any such period shall be equal to zero until the book value of all assets subject to an Asset Disposition during such period shall equal the Threshold Amount and shall be equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds received in respect of all Asset Dispositions consummated thereafter during such period, provided, however, that the Net Proceeds attributable to any Asset Disposition which causes the Threshold Amount to be exceeded for the first time in any such 


-28-
    







period shall be deemed to have been allocated ratably to the portion of such book value necessary to reach the Threshold Amount and the portion of such book value in excess thereof, and the latter (but not the former) shall constitute a portion of Excess Proceeds.

Section 8.9.    Offer to Prepay Notes Upon Change in Control.
(a)    Notice of Change in Control or Control Event.  The Company will, within five Business Days after any Responsible Officer has knowledge of the occurrence of any Change in Control or Control Event, give written notice of such Change in Control or Control Event to each holder of Notes unless notice in respect of such Change in Control (or the Change in Control contemplated by such Control Event) shall have been given pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 8.9.  If a Change in Control has occurred, such notice shall contain and constitute an offer to prepay the Notes as described in paragraph (c) of this Section 8.9 and shall be accompanied by the certificate described in paragraph (g) of this Section 8.9.
(b)    Condition to Company Action.  The Company will not take any action that consummates or finalizes a Change in Control unless (i) at least 15 Business Days prior to such action it shall have given to each holder of Notes written notice containing and constituting an offer to prepay Notes as described in paragraph (c) of this Section 8.9, accompanied by the certificate described in paragraph (g) of this Section 8.9, and (ii) subject to the provisions of paragraph (d) below, contemporaneously with such action, it prepays all Notes required to be prepaid in accordance with this Section 8.9.
(c)    Offer to Prepay Notes.  The offer to prepay Notes contemplated by paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 8.9 shall be an offer to prepay, in accordance with and subject to this Section 8.9, all, but not less than all, of the Notes held by each holder on the Business Day specified in such offer (the “Change in Control Prepayment Date”).  If such Change in Control Prepayment Date is in connection with an offer contemplated by paragraph (a) of this Section 8.9, such date shall be a Business Day not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days after the date of such offer.
(d)    Acceptance; Rejection.  A holder of Notes may accept or reject the offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.9 by causing a notice of such acceptance or rejection to be delivered to the Company on or before the date specified in the certificate described in paragraph (g) of this Section 8.9.  A failure by a holder of Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.9, or to accept an offer as to all of the Notes held by the holder, within such time period shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder.
(e)    Prepayment.  Prepayment of the Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.9 shall be at 100% of the outstanding principal amount of such Notes and shall not require the payment of any Make-Whole Amount or prepayment premium. The prepayment shall be made on the Change in Control Prepayment Date except as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section 8.9.


-29-
    







(f)    Deferral Pending Change in Control.  The obligation of the Company to prepay Notes pursuant to the offers required by paragraphs (a) and (b) and accepted in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 8.9 is subject to the occurrence of the Change in Control in respect of which such offers and acceptances shall have been made. In the event that such Change in Control does not occur on or prior to the Change in Control Prepayment Date in respect thereof, the prepayment shall be deferred until and shall be made on the date on which such Change in Control occurs; provided that no such deferral shall be longer than 60 days.  The Company shall keep each holder of Notes reasonably and timely informed of (i) any such deferral of the date of prepayment, (ii) the date on which such Change in Control and the prepayment are expected to occur, and (iii) any determination by the Company that efforts to effect such Change in Control have ceased or been abandoned (in which case the offers and acceptances made pursuant to this Section 8.9 in respect of such Change in Control shall be deemed rescinded).

Section 9.1.    Compliance with Law.
Without limiting Section 10.5, the Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations to which each of them is subject (including ERISA, Environmental Laws, the USA PATRIOT Act and the other laws and regulations that are referred to in Section 5.16) and will obtain and maintain in effect all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations necessary to the ownership of their respective properties or to the conduct of their respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that non-compliance with such laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or maintain in effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 9.2.    Insurance.
The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated.

Section 9.3.    Maintenance of Properties.
The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, provided that this Section shall not prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Company has concluded that such discontinuance would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 9.4.    Payment of Taxes.
The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, file all tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due and payable on such 


-31-
    







returns and all other taxes, assessments, governmental charges, or levies payable by any of them, to the extent the same have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, provided that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary need pay any such tax, assessment, charge or levy if (a) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Subsidiary or (b) the nonpayment of all such taxes, assessments, charges and levies, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 9.5.    Corporate Existence, Etc.
Except for sales, leases and other dispositions of assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries effected in compliance with Section 8.8, and subject to Section 10.3, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, and will preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence of each of its Subsidiaries (unless merged into the Company or a Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such corporate existence, right or franchise would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 9.6.    Guaranty by Subsidiaries.
(a)    If at any time, pursuant to the terms and conditions of any Principal Credit Facility, any existing or newly acquired or formed Subsidiary of the Company becomes obligated as a guarantor or obligor under such Principal Credit Facility, the Company will, at its sole cost and expense, cause such Subsidiary to, prior to or concurrently therewith, become a Guarantor in respect of this Agreement and the Notes and deliver to each of the holders of the Notes the following items:
(i)    an executed guaranty agreement in the form of Exhibit 9.6 (a “Guaranty Agreement”);
(ii)    such documents and evidence with respect to such Subsidiary as the Required Holders may reasonably request in order to establish the existence and good standing of such Subsidiary and the authorization of the transactions contemplated by such Guaranty Agreement;
(iii)    a favorable opinion of counsel to such Subsidiary in form, scope and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders; and
(iv)    such other certificates, resolutions, opinions, documents and instruments as may be reasonably requested by the Required Holders to give effect to the undertaking of such Subsidiary becoming a Guarantor.


-32-
    







(b)    If at any time, (i) pursuant to the terms and conditions of each Principal Credit Facility, any Guarantor is discharged and released from its Guaranty of Indebtedness under each Principal Credit Facility, (ii) such Guarantor is not a co-obligor under any Principal Credit Facility and (iii) the Company will have delivered to each holder of Notes an Officer’s Certificate certifying that (x) the conditions specified in clauses (i) and (ii) above have been satisfied and (y) immediately preceding the release of such Guarantor from its Guaranty Agreement and after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default will have existed or would exist, then, upon receipt by the holders of Notes of such Officer’s Certificate, such Guarantor will be discharged and released, automatically and without the need for any further action, from its obligations under its Guaranty Agreement; provided that, if in connection with any release of a Guarantor from its Guaranty of Indebtedness under any Principal Credit Facility any fee or other consideration (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any repayment of the principal or interest under such Principal Credit Facility in connection with such release) is paid or given to any holder of Indebtedness under such Principal Credit Facility in connection with such release, each holder of a Note shall receive equivalent consideration on a pro rata basis (determined, in respect of revolving credit facilities, based upon the commitment in effect thereunder rather than amounts outstanding thereunder) in connection with such Guarantor’s release from its Guaranty Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing, for purposes of further assurance, each of the holders of the Notes agrees to provide to the Company and such Guarantor, if reasonably requested by the Company or such Guarantor and at the Company’s expense, written evidence of such discharge and release signed by such holder.
Anything in this Section 9.6 to the contrary notwithstanding, a Foreign Subsidiary that is an obligor under a Principal Credit Facility shall be deemed not to be an obligor under such Principal Credit Facility for purposes of this Section 9.6 if such Subsidiary shall have no obligations under such Principal Credit Facility (or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto) for the repayment of any Indebtedness of the Company or any other Subsidiary outstanding thereunder (whether upon default by any party to such Principal Credit Facility or otherwise) other than Indebtedness of another Foreign Subsidiary which Subsidiary also satisfies the conditions of this sentence.

Section 9.7.    Books and Records.
The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep, proper books of record and account, containing complete and accurate entries of all their respective financial and business transactions which are required to be maintained in order to prepare the consolidated financial statements of the Company in conformity with GAAP.

Section 9.8.    Excess Leverage Fee.
Without limiting the Company’s obligations under Section 10.1, in the event the Company provides a Notice of Increase in Leverage Ratio, the Company agrees that, in addition to interest accruing on the Notes, the Company will pay to each holder of a Note a fee (computed on the same basis and payable at the same time as such interest) at a rate per annum equal to 0.25% (each such fee, an “Excess Leverage Fee”) on the outstanding principal amount of each Note held by such 


-33-
    







holder during the period beginning on the first day of the fiscal quarter immediately succeeding the fiscal quarter in which the Material Acquisition described in such Notice of Increase in Leverage Ratio occurs and ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately following the last fiscal quarter for which the Company elected to increase the Maximum Leverage Ratio pursuant to such Notice of Increase in Leverage Ratio.  The accrued and unpaid Excess Leverage Fee on any principal amount being paid or prepaid shall be paid concurrently with such principal.  Any overdue payment of an Excess Leverage Fee shall accrue interest at a rate per annum from time to time equal to the Default Rate applicable to the applicable Note, payable in arrears at the same time accrued interest is paid on such Note (or, at the option of the registered holder thereof, on demand).
The Company will pay the Excess Leverage Fee by separate wire transfer in U.S. Dollars with respect to (a) each Non-Swapped Note and (b) each Swapped Note the holder of which has so elected, by written notice to the Company (by noting such election in its Schedule B hereto or otherwise providing written notice to the Company), to receive the Excess Leverage Fee in U.S. Dollars, and the Company will pay the Excess Leverage Fee by separate wire transfer in Euro to all other holders of Swapped Notes.  For purposes of calculating the amount of any Excess Leverage Fee with respect to any Swapped Note that is payable in U.S. Dollars, the amount of the Excess Leverage Fee at the time of such determination shall be converted from Euro into U.S. Dollars at the current Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate, as determined as of 10:00 A.M. (New York time) one Business Day prior to the day such Excess Leverage Fee is payable as indicated on the applicable screen of Bloomberg Financial Markets, and any such calculation shall be reported to the Company in reasonable detail and shall be binding on the Company absent demonstrable error.
For the avoidance of doubt, payment of the Excess Leverage Fee shall be deemed to constitute a fee for all purposes.

If the Company makes an LCT Election, then in connection with any calculation of the ratio in Section 10.1 with respect to any transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining whether such 


-36-
    







subsequent transaction is permitted under this Agreement, such ratio shall be required to be satisfied on a pro forma basis (1) assuming that such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated and (2) assuming that such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have not been consummated.

Section 10.4.    Transactions with Affiliates.
The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, enter into directly or indirectly any Material transaction or Material group of related transactions (including the purchase, lease, sale or exchange of properties of any kind or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate (other than the Company or another Subsidiary), except pursuant to the reasonable requirements of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s business and upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary than would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate.

(a)    If an Event of Default with respect to the Company described in paragraph (g) or (h) of Section 11 (other than an Event of Default described in clause (i) of paragraph (g) or described in clause (vi) of paragraph (g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (i) of paragraph (g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable.

Each holder of a Note, 


-48-
    







by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement.  On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company embodying this Section 20.

Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser.  In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.

GUARANTY AGREEMENT
THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT, dated as of __________, 20__ (this “Guaranty Agreement”), is made by __________, a __________ (the “Guarantor”) in favor of the Purchasers (as defined below) and the other holders from time to time of the Notes (as defined below).  The Purchasers and such other holders are herein collectively called the “holders” and individually a “holder.”
PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:
I.    Genuine Parts Company, a Georgia corporation (the “Company”), has entered into a Note Purchase Agreement, dated as October 30, 2017 (as amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time, the “Note Agreement”), with the Purchasers listed on Schedule B thereto (together with their successors and assigns, the “Purchasers”).  Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings specified in the Note Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.
II.    The Company has authorized the issuance and sale, pursuant to the Note Agreement, of (a) U.S.$120,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.70% Series I Senior Notes due October 30, 2027 (the “Series I Notes”), (b) €225,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 1.40% Series J Senior Notes due October 30, 2024 (the “Series J Notes”), (c) €250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 1.81% Series K Senior Notes due October 30, 2027 (the “Series K Notes”), (d) €125,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 2.02% Series L Senior Notes due October 30, 2029 (the “Series L Notes”) and (e) €100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 2.32% Series M Senior Notes due October 30, 2032 (the “Series M Notes”; together with the Series I Notes, the Series J Notes, the Series K Notes and the Series L Notes, the “Initial Notes”).  The Initial Notes and any other Notes that may from time to time be issued pursuant to the Note Agreement (including any notes issued in substitution for any of the Notes), as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time, are herein collectively called the “Notes” and individually a “Note.”
III.    Pursuant to the Note Agreement, the Company is required to cause the Guarantor to deliver this Guaranty Agreement to the holders of Notes.
IV.    The Guarantor has received and will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Note Agreement.  The __________ of the Guarantor has determined that the incurrence of such obligations is in the best interests of the Guarantor.
NOW THEREFORE, in compliance with the Note Agreement, and in consideration of, the execution and delivery of the Note Agreement and the purchase of the Notes by each of the Purchasers, the Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees with, and represents and warrants to each of the holders as follows:


    


EXHIBIT 10.31







SECTION 2.    GUARANTY.The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each holder, the due and punctual payment in full of (a) the principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, Net Loss, if any, Excess Leverage Fee, if any, and interest on (including, without limitation, interest accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding), and any other amounts due under, the Notes when and as the same shall become due and payable (whether at stated maturity or by required or optional prepayment or by acceleration or otherwise) and (b) any other sums which may become due under the terms and provisions of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein (all such obligations described in clauses (a) and (b) above are herein called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  The guaranty in the preceding sentence is an absolute, present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collectibility and is in no way conditional or contingent upon any attempt to collect from the Company or any other guarantor of the Notes or upon any other action, occurrence or circumstance whatsoever.  In the event that the Company shall fail so to pay any of such Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantor agrees to pay the same when due to the holders entitled thereto, without demand, presentment, protest or notice of any kind, in lawful money of the United States, pursuant to the requirements for payment specified in the Notes and the Note Agreement.  Each default in payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall give rise to a separate cause of action hereunder and separate suits may be brought hereunder as each cause of action arises.  The Guarantor agrees that the Notes issued in connection with the Note Agreement may (but need not) make reference to this Guaranty Agreement.
The Guarantor agrees to pay and to indemnify and save each holder harmless from and against any damage, loss, cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) which such holder may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (x) any breach by the Guarantor or by the Company of any warranty, covenant, term or condition in, or the occurrence of any default under, this Guaranty Agreement, the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, together with all expenses resulting from the compromise or defense of any claims or liabilities arising as a result of any such breach or default, (y) any legal action commenced to challenge the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty Agreement, the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein and (z) enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement.
The Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Guarantor’s liability hereunder is joint and several with any other Person(s) who may guarantee the obligations and Indebtedness under and in respect of the Notes and the Note Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions or any other provision of this Guaranty Agreement, the holders (by their acceptance of any Note) and the Guarantor hereby agree that if at any time the Guaranteed Obligations exceed the Maximum Guaranteed Amount determined as of such time with regard to the Guarantor, then this Guaranty Agreement shall be automatically amended to reduce the Guaranteed Obligations to the Maximum Guaranteed Amount.  Such amendment shall not require the written consent of the 


E-9.6-2
    







Guarantor or any holder and shall be deemed to have been automatically consented to by the Guarantor and each holder.  The Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time exceed the Maximum Guaranteed Amount without affecting or impairing the obligation of the Guarantor.  “Maximum Guaranteed Amount” means as of the date of determination with respect to the Guarantor, the lesser of (a) the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations outstanding on such date and (b) the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty Agreement subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (or any successor provision) or any comparable provision of applicable state law.
SECTION 3.    OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE.The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be primary, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of the validity or enforceability of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense based upon any claim the Guarantor may have against the Company or any holder or otherwise, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, discharged or in any way affected by, any circumstance or condition whatsoever (whether or not the Guarantor shall have any knowledge or notice thereof), including, without limitation:  (a) any amendment to, modification of, supplement to or restatement of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein (it being agreed that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall apply to the Notes, the Note Agreement or any such other instrument as so amended, modified, supplemented or restated) or any assignment or transfer of any thereof or of any interest therein, or any furnishing, acceptance or release of any security for the Notes; (b) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein; (c) any bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, reorganization, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar proceeding with respect to the Company or its property; (d) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Guarantor or of the Company into or with any other Person or any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of the Guarantor or of the Company to any Person; (e) any failure on the part of the Company for any reason to comply with or perform any of the terms of any other agreement with the Guarantor; (f) any failure on the part of any holder to obtain, maintain, register or otherwise perfect any security; or (g) any other event or circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor (whether or not similar to the foregoing), and in any event however material or prejudicial it may be to the Guarantor or to any subrogation, contribution or reimbursement rights the Guarantor may otherwise have.  The Guarantor covenants that its obligations hereunder will not be discharged except by indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other obligations hereunder.
SECTION 4.    WAIVER.
The Guarantor unconditionally waives to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) notice of acceptance hereof, of any action taken or omitted in reliance hereon and of any default by the Company in the payment of any amounts due under the Notes, the Note 


E-9.6-3
    







Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, and of any of the matters referred to in Section 2 hereof, (b) all notices which may be required by statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve any of the rights of any holder against the Guarantor, including, without limitation, presentment to or demand for payment from the Company or the Guarantor with respect to any Note, notice to the Company or to the Guarantor of default or protest for nonpayment or dishonor and the filing of claims with a court in the event of the bankruptcy of the Company, (c) any right to require any holder to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy including, without limitation, any right, power or remedy conferred in the Note Agreement or the Notes, (d) any requirement for diligence on the part of any holder and (e) any other act or omission or thing or delay in doing any other act or thing which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantor or in any manner lessen the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder.
SECTION 5.    OBLIGATIONS UNIMPAIRED.
The Guarantor authorizes the holders, without notice or demand to the Guarantor and without affecting its obligations hereunder, from time to time:  (a) to renew, compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, all or any part of the Notes, or any obligations under the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein; (b) to change any of the representations, covenants, events of default or any other terms or conditions of or pertaining to the Notes, the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, including, without limitation, decreases or increases in amounts of principal, rates of interest, Excess Leverage Fee, Make-Whole Amount, Net Loss or any other obligation; (c) to take and hold security for the payment of the Notes or amounts payable under the Note Agreement or any other instrument referred to therein, for the performance of this Guaranty Agreement or otherwise for the Indebtedness guaranteed hereby and to exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate and release any such security; (d) to apply any such security and to direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the holders in their sole discretion may determine; (e) to obtain additional or substitute endorsers or guarantors; (f) to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and others; and (g) to apply any sums, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other obligations owed hereunder.  The holders shall have no obligation to proceed against any additional or substitute endorsers or guarantors or to pursue or exhaust any security provided by the Company, the Guarantor or any other Person or to pursue any other remedy available to the holders.
If an event permitting the acceleration of the maturity of the principal amount of any Notes shall exist and such acceleration shall at such time be prevented or the right of any holder to receive any payment on account of the Guaranteed Obligations shall at such time be delayed or otherwise affected by reason of the pendency against the Company, the Guarantor or any other guarantors of a case or proceeding under a bankruptcy or insolvency law, the Guarantor agrees that, for purposes of this Guaranty Agreement and its obligations hereunder, the maturity of such principal amount shall be deemed to have 


E-9.6-4
    







been accelerated with the same effect as if the holder thereof had accelerated the same in accordance with the terms of the Note Agreement, and the Guarantor shall forthwith pay such accelerated Guaranteed Obligations.
SECTION 6.    SUBROGATION AND SUBORDINATION.
The Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have acquired by way of subrogation under this Guaranty Agreement, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, or accept any payment on account of such subrogation rights, or any rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity or any rights or recourse to any security for the Notes or this Guaranty Agreement unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash.
The Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all Indebtedness and other obligations of the Company or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations owing to the Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including, without limitation, all rights and claims described in clause (a) of this Section 5, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations.  If the Required Holders so request, any such Indebtedness or other obligations shall be enforced and performance received by the Guarantor as trustee for the holders and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the holders promptly, in the form received (together with any necessary endorsements) to be applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as may be directed by the Required Holders, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement.
If any amount or other payment is made to or accepted by the Guarantor in violation of any of the preceding clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 5, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to the Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the holders and shall be paid over to the holders promptly, in the form received (together with any necessary endorsements) to be applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as may be directed by the Required Holders, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement.
