(i)any financial ratio test or condition to be tested in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition and the availability of such Indebtedness will be tested as of the LCA Test Date, in each case, immediately after giving effect to the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition and related incurrence of Indebtedness, giving Pro Forma Effect thereto where applicable, and, for the avoidance of doubt, (i) such ratios and baskets shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition and (ii) if any of such ratios are exceeded or conditions are not met following the LCA Test Date, but prior to the closing of such Limited Condition Acquisition, as a result of fluctuations in such ratio or amount (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Parent Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Acquisition), at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded and such conditions will not be deemed unmet as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the relevant transaction or action is permitted to be consummated or taken;

The Parent Borrower, on behalf of itself or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower, shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable prior written notice substantially in the form of a Borrowing Request not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) on the same Business Day as each Base Rate Loan and (ii)(A) in the case of a Term SOFR Loan, at least three (3) RFR Business Days before such Term SOFR Loan, (B) in the case of a Daily Simple SONIA Loan, at least five (5) RFR Business Days before such Daily Simple SONIA Loan, and (C) in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, at least four (4) Eurocurrency Banking Days before such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, of its intention to borrow; provided, that the Borrowers may only request a Term SOFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan for a borrowing on the Effective Date if the Parent Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent indemnifying the Lenders in the manner set forth in Section 2.15 of this Agreement.  Each Borrowing Request shall specify (A) the date of such borrowing, which shall be a Business Day, a RFR Business Day or an Eurocurrency Banking Day, as applicable, (B) the identity of the applicable Borrower, (C) the Currency of such borrowing, (D) whether such Revolving Loan is to be a Global Tranche Revolving Loan, a Mexican Tranche Revolving Loan or a Singaporean Tranche Revolving Loan, (E) the amount of such borrowing,

which shall be an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum, (F) whether such Revolving Loan is to be a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, a Daily Simple SONIA Loan, a Term SOFR Loan or a Base Rate Loan, (G) in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a Term SOFR Loan, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto. If the Parent Borrower fails to specify the Currency of a Loan in a Borrowing Request, then the applicable Loans shall be made in Dollars and (H) the location and number of the Applicable Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed (provided that if the Parent Borrower shall fail to specify an account, the account shall be deemed to be the account specified in the then most recent Borrowing Request that shall have specified such account).  If the Parent Borrower fails to specify a type of Loan denominated in Dollars in a Borrowing Request, then the applicable Loans shall be made as Revolving Loans at the Base Rate.  If the Parent Borrower requests a borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans in any such Borrowing Request, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.  A Borrowing Request received after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day, RFR Business Day or Eurocurrency Banking Day, as applicable.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Global Tranche Lenders, the Mexican Tranche Lenders or the Singaporean Tranche Lenders, as applicable, of each Borrowing Request.
(v)Disbursement of Revolving Loans.  Not later than 1:00 p.m. in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Loan denominated in a Foreign Currency, in each case on the proposed borrowing date, each applicable Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Borrower, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Same Day Funds, in the applicable Currency, such Lender’s applicable Commitment Percentage of the Loans to be made on such borrowing date.  The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each borrowing requested pursuant to this Section in Same Day Funds by crediting or wiring such proceeds to the deposit account of such Borrower identified in the most recent notice substantially in the form attached as Exhibit K (a “Notice of Account Designation”) delivered by the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent or as may be otherwise agreed upon by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time.  Subject to Section 2.03(d) hereof, the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to disburse the portion of the proceeds of any Loan requested pursuant to this Section to the extent that any Lender has not made available to the Administrative Agent its applicable Commitment Percentage of such Loan.
(w)Initial Term Loans. The Parent Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Borrowing Request requesting that the applicable Term Lenders make the initial Term Loans on the Effective Date prior to 11:00 a.m. (i) in the case of a Base Rate Loan, on the Effective Date and (ii)(A) in the case of a Term SOFR Loan, at least three (3) RFR Business Days prior to the Effective Date, (B) in the case of a Daily Simple SONIA Loan, at least five (5) RFR Business Days prior to the Effective Date, and (C) in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, at least four (4) Eurocurrency Banking Days prior to the Effective Date; provided, that the Parent Borrower may only request a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a Term SOFR Loan if the Parent Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent indemnifying the Lenders in the manner set forth in Section 2.15 of this Agreement.  Any Borrowing Request shall specify (A) the date of such borrowing, which shall be a Business Day, a RFR Business Day or an Eurocurrency Banking Day, as applicable, (B) the Currency of such borrowing, (C) whether such Term Loan is to be a USD Term Loan or a EUR Term Loan, (D) the amount of such borrowing, (E) whether such Term Loan is to be a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, a Daily Simple SONIA Loan, a Term SOFR Loan or a Base Rate Loan, and (F) in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a Term SOFR Loan, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.  If the Parent Borrower fails to specify the Currency of a Term Loan in a Borrowing Request, then the Term Loan shall be made in Dollars.  If the Parent Borrower fails to specify a type of Term Loan in Dollars in a Borrowing Request, then the applicable Term Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan.  If the Parent Borrower requests a borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans in any such Borrowing Request, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.  Not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Effective Date, each applicable Term Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Parent Borrower, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Same Day Funds in the applicable Currency, the amount of such initial Term Loan to be made by such Term Lender on the Effective Date.  The Parent Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of the initial Term Loans in 


63
161369281_7






Same Day Funds by wire transfer to such Person or Persons as may be designated by the Parent Borrower in writing.
(x)Incremental Term Loans.  Any Incremental Term Loans shall be borrowed pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 2.20.
(y)Funding by Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.03 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 Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, (x) the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars) or (y) the greater of the rate determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency) or (ii) in the case of the Applicable Borrower, (A) the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans (in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars) or (B) the interest rate applicable to the subject Loan (in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency). If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. If the applicable Lender and the Applicable Borrower shall both pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Applicable Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Applicable Borrower for such period. Any such payment by any Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
(z)Swingline Loans.  Any Swingline Loan shall be borrowed pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 2.04.
SECTION 1.02Swingline Loans.
(aa)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, make Loans denominated in Dollars, Euro or Sterling to the Global Tranche Borrowers from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the Swingline Exposure exceeding $100,000,000, (ii) the Global Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender exceeding the Global Tranche Revolving Commitment of such Lender, (iii) the Aggregate Global Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Aggregate Global Tranche Revolving Commitments and (iv) in the case of a Swingline Loan to any Global Tranche Borrower that is a Subsidiary Borrower, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure as to which the Subsidiary Borrowers are the Applicable Borrowers exceeding $325,000,000; provided that no more than four Swingline Loans may be outstanding at any time. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Global Tranche Borrowers may, subject to the sole discretion of the Swingline Lender as set forth above, borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.
(ab)To request a Swingline Loan, the Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself or the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower) shall submit to the Administrative Agent, by fax or email, a completed Borrowing Request signed by a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower (i) in the case of a Swingline Dollar Loan, not later than 2:00 p.m., on the day of the proposed Swingline Loan or (ii) in the case of a Swingline Foreign Currency Loan, not later than 2:00 p.m., Applicable Time, on the day one Business Day before such proposed Swingline Foreign Currency Loan.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the identity of the Applicable Borrower, (B) the amount of the requested Swingline Loan, (C) the currency in which such Swingline Loan is to be denominated, (D) the requested date of 


64
161369281_7






such Swingline Loan, which shall be a Business Day, and (E) in the case of any Swingline Dollar Loan requested to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), the LC Disbursement intended to be reimbursed. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Parent Borrower. If the Swingline Lender determines, in its sole discretion, to make the requested Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender shall make such Swingline Loan available to the Applicable Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Applicable Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Dollar Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank) by 3:00 p.m., Applicable Time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.
(ac)The Swingline Lender may, by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, on any Business Day, require the Global Tranche Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount and currencies of the Swingline Loans in which the Global Tranche Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Global Tranche Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Global Tranche Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans and the currencies thereof. Each Global Tranche Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above with respect to such Swingline Loan or Loans, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Global Tranche Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Global Tranche Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Global Tranche Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Global Tranche Lender further acknowledges and agrees that, in making any Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon the representation and warranty of the Parent Borrower deemed made pursuant to Section 4.02. Each Global Tranche Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the applicable currency promptly (and, in any event, by the next Business Day), in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Global Tranche Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Global Tranche Lenders pursuant to this paragraph), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Global Tranche Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Applicable Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Applicable Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Global Tranche Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Applicable Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in any Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Applicable Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.
SECTION 1.09Letters of Credit.
(ad)General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) any Global Tranche Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account and (ii) the Parent Borrower may, so long as the Parent Borrower shall be a joint and several co- applicant with respect thereto, request the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary Borrower), in each case, denominated in Dollars, Euro or Sterling and in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Application or other agreement submitted by any Global 


65
161369281_7






Tranche Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to, or entered into with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
(ae)Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit, other than an automatic extension permitted pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.05), the Parent Borrower shall submit to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension), by fax or email, a written notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended or extended, and specifying the Applicable Borrower, the date of issuance, amendment or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section 2.05), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the currency in which such Letter of Credit is to be denominated, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to enable the applicable Issuing Bank to prepare, amend or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Applicable Borrower also shall submit a Letter of Credit Application. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment or extension of each Letter of Credit the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension, (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $50,000,000, (ii) the amount of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank shall not exceed the LC Commitment of such Issuing Bank, (iii) the Global Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender shall not exceed the Global Tranche Revolving Commitment of such Lender, (iv) the Aggregate Global Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the Aggregate Global Tranche Revolving Commitments and (v) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure as to which the Subsidiary Borrowers are the Applicable Borrowers shall not exceed $325,000,000. No Issuing Bank shall be obligated to issue commercial or trade Letters of Credit, or Letters of Credit denominated in any Foreign Currency, in each case, if such issuance would not be in accordance with its internal policies or procedures. An Issuing Bank shall not be under any obligation to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing, amending or extending such Letter of Credit, or any law, rule, regulation or orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request, rule, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular.
(af)Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any extension thereof, one year after such extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date; provided that any Letter of Credit may contain customary automatic extension provisions agreed upon by the Parent Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to which the expiration date of such Letter of Credit shall automatically be extended for a period of up to 12 months (but not to a date later than the date set forth in clause (ii) above), subject to a right on the part of such Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension from occurring by giving notice to the beneficiary at least a specified time (as agreed upon by the Parent Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank) in advance of any such extension.  
(ag)Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Global Tranche Lenders, the Issuing Bank that is the issuer thereof hereby grants to each Global Tranche Lender, and each Global Tranche Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Global Tranche Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Global Tranche Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Global Tranche Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, or of any reimbursement payment in respect of any LC Disbursement required to be refunded to the Applicable Borrower for any reason, including after the Revolving Maturity Date. Such payment by the Global Tranche Lenders shall 


66
161369281_7






be made (i) if the currency of the applicable LC Disbursement or reimbursement payment shall be in Dollars, then in Dollars and (ii) subject to paragraph (k) of this Section 2.05, if the currency of the applicable LC Disbursement or reimbursement payment shall be a Foreign Currency, then in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement or reimbursement payment, calculated by the Administrative Agent using the Exchange Rate on the applicable LC Participation Calculation Date. Each Global Tranche Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, any reduction or termination of the Global Tranche Revolving Commitments or any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section 3.14 of the ISP) or the express terms of such Letter of Credit itself permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the expiration thereof or of the Global Tranche Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Global Tranche Lender further acknowledges and agrees that, in issuing, amending or extending any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon the representation and warranty of the Parent Borrower deemed made pursuant to Section 4.02.
(ah)Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount in the currency of such LC Disbursement equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Applicable Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Applicable Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, on (i) the Business Day that the Applicable Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Applicable Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that the Parent Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with a Base Rate Revolving Borrowing or a Swingline Loan denominated in the same currency and in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Applicable Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due, then, if the currency of the applicable LC Disbursement is a Foreign Currency, the Applicable Borrower’s obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement shall automatically and with no further action required be converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement, calculated by the Administrative Agent using the Exchange Rate on the applicable LC Participation Calculation Date, and the applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Global Tranche Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the amount and currency of the payment then due from the Applicable Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Global Tranche Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice (and, in any event, by the next Business Day), each Global Tranche Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Global Tranche Percentage of the payment then due from the Applicable Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Global Tranche Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Global Tranche Lenders pursuant to this paragraph), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Global Tranche Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Applicable Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Global Tranche Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Global Tranche Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Global Tranche Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Base Rate Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.
(ai)Obligations Absolute. The Applicable Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and 


67
161369281_7






all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by any Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (iv) any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section 3.14 of the ISP) or the express terms of such Letter of Credit itself permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the stated expiration date thereof or of the Revolving Commitments or (v) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Applicable Borrower’s obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in translation or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Applicable Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Applicable Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined in a final and nonappealable judgment that in making any such determination the applicable Issuing Bank acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct, such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
(aj)Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, within the time allowed by applicable law or the express terms of such Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Applicable Borrower by telephone (confirmed by fax or email) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Global Tranche Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.
(ak)Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Applicable Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement made in Dollars, and at all times following the conversion to Dollars of the reimbursement obligation with respect to any LC Disbursement made in Euro or Sterling pursuant to paragraph (e) or (k) of this Section 2.05, at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Revolving Loans and (ii) in the case of any LC Disbursement made in Euro or Sterling, at all times prior to the conversion of the reimbursement obligation with respect thereto to Dollars pursuant to paragraph (e) or (k) of this Section 2.05, at a rate equal to the applicable Swingline Foreign Currency Overnight Rate plus the Applicable Margin used to determine interest applicable to Eurocurrency Rate Loans; provided that, if the Applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, then Section 2.12(g) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Global Tranche Lender pursuant to 


68
161369281_7






paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which the Applicable Borrower reimburses the applicable LC Disbursement in full.
(al)Designation of Additional Issuing Banks; Replacement of Issuing Banks.
(i)From time to time, the Parent Borrower may by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Global Tranche Lenders designate as additional Issuing Bank one or more Global Tranche Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Global Tranche Lender of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement (an “Issuing Bank Agreement”), which shall be in a form satisfactory to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, shall set forth the LC Commitment of such Global Tranche Lender and shall be executed by such Global Tranche Lender, the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent. The Issuing Bank Agreement of any Issuing Bank may limit the currencies in which and the Borrowers for the account of which such Issuing Bank will issue Letters of Credit, and any such limitations will, as to such Issuing Bank, be deemed to be incorporated into this Agreement.
(ii)An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank (it being understood that such successor Issuing Bank shall be designated and appointed as an Issuing Bank hereunder in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph). The Administrative Agent shall notify the Global Tranche Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Parent Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b).
(iii)From and after the effective date of any such appointment or replacement, (A) the additional or successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (B) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such additional or successor Issuing Bank or, in the case of a replacement, to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such additional or successor Issuing Bank and, in the case of a replacement, all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
(am)Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Parent Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Parent Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Global Tranche Lenders and the Issuing Banks, an amount in cash and in the currency of such Letter of Credit equal to (i) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, 100% of the LC Exposure as of such date attributable to such Letter of Credit, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and (ii) in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, 105% of the LC Exposure as of such date attributable to such Letter of Credit, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that (A) amounts payable in respect of any Letter of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency in respect of which the Applicable Borrower’s reimbursement obligations have been converted to obligations in Dollars as provided in paragraph (e) or (k) of this Section 2.05, and interest accrued thereon, shall be payable in Dollars and (B) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in Section 7.01(f). The Parent Borrower shall also deposit cash collateral in Dollars in accordance with this paragraph as and to the extent required by Sections 2.10 and 2.19. Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any

interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Parent Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.17(b), be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse any Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to, in the case of any such application at a time when any Global Tranche Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and only if, after giving effect thereto, the remaining cash collateral in respect of the LC Exposure shall be less than the aggregate LC Exposure of all the Defaulting Lenders), the consent of each Issuing Bank), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If the Parent Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Parent Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Parent Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.19, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Parent Borrower within three Business Days to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, no Issuing Bank shall have any exposure in respect of any outstanding Letter of Credit that is not fully covered by the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders that are Global Tranche Lenders and/or the remaining cash collateral and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
(an)Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to Section 7.01, all amounts (i) that any Borrower is at the time or becomes thereafter required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements made under any Letter of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency (other than amounts in respect of which the Parent Borrower has deposited cash collateral, if such cash collateral was deposited in the applicable currency), (ii) that the Global Tranche Lenders are at the time or become thereafter required to pay to the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent is at the time or becomes thereafter required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Bank) pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Letter of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency and (iii) of each Global Tranche Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rate on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is made), of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Global Tranche Lender in respect of the obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder.
(ao)Letter of Credit Amounts. For all purposes of this Agreement, (i) the amount of a Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases (other than any such increase consisting of the reinstatement of an amount previously drawn thereunder and reimbursed), whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at the time of determination and (ii) if on any date of determination a Letter of Credit has expired by its terms but any amount may still be drawn thereunder by reason of the operation of Article 29(a) of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the applicable time) or Rule 3.13 or Rule 3.14 of the ISP or the express terms of the Letter of Credit itself, such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be “outstanding” and “undrawn” in the amount so remaining available to be paid, and the obligations of the Applicable Borrower and each Global Tranche Lender hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until the Issuing Banks and the Global Tranche Lenders shall have no further obligations to make any payments or disbursements under any circumstances with respect to any Letter of Credit.
(ap)Letters of Credit Issued for Account of Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that any Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder supports any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower (other than a Subsidiary that itself is a Subsidiary Borrower), or states that a Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower (other than a Subsidiary that itself is a Subsidiary Borrower) is 


70
161369281_7






the “account party”, “applicant”, “customer”, “instructing party” or the like of or for such Letter of Credit, and without derogating from any rights of the applicable Issuing Bank (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit, the Parent Borrower (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for such Letter of Credit (including to reimburse any and all drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for the account of the Parent Borrower and (ii) except to the extent expressly provided in Section 2.05(f), irrevocably waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. The Parent Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for any of its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Parent Borrower, and that the Parent Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of its Subsidiaries.
SECTION 1.02Notice and Manner of Conversion or Continuation of Loans. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Parent Borrower shall have the option, subject to Section 2.12(a), to (a) convert at any time, subject to the notice requirements herein, all or any portion of any outstanding Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) in a principal amount equal to the Borrowing Minimum or any Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof (or such lesser amount as shall represent all of the Base Rate Loans then outstanding) into one or more Term SOFR Loans, (b)  upon the expiration of any Interest Period therefor, (i) convert all or any part of any outstanding Term SOFR Loans in a principal amount equal to the Borrowing Minimum or any Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof (or such lesser amount as shall represent all of the Term SOFR Loans then outstanding) into Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) or (ii) continue any such Term SOFR Loans as Term SOFR Loans, (c) upon the expiration of any Interest Period therefor, continue any Eurocurrency Rate Loans as Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (d) upon the occurrence of the Interest Payment Date therefor, continue any such Daily Simple SONIA Loans as Daily Simple SONIA Loans.   Whenever a Borrower desires to convert or continue Loans as provided above, the Parent Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent an Interest Election Request not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) in the case of a Term SOFR Loan, at least three (3) RFR Business Days before the day on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Loan is to be effective, (ii) in the case of a Daily Simple SONIA Loan, at least five (5) RFR Business Days before the day on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Loan is to be effective, and (iii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, at least four (4) Eurocurrency Banking Days before the day on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Loan is to be effective, in each case, specifying (A) the Loans to be converted or continued, and, in the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan to be converted or continued, the last day of the Interest Period therefor, (B) the effective date of such conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the principal amount and Currency of such Loans to be converted or continued, and (D) in the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan, the Interest Period to be applicable to such converted or continued Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan.  If the Parent Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a Term SOFR Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan, as applicable, is repaid as provided herein, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected that such Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan, as applicable, shall automatically be converted to a Base Rate Loan denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the applicable Foreign Currency) at the end of such Interest Period.  If the Parent Borrower requests a conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a Term SOFR Loan, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Swingline Loan may not be converted to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a Term SOFR Loan.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the affected Lenders of such Interest Election Request.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.06 to the contrary, the Parent Borrower may not (x) change the Currency of any Borrowing, (y) elect an Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing or Term SOFR Borrowing that does not comply with Section 2.02(d) or (z) convert any Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Class not available with respect thereto.

Pending the final application of any such Net Cash Proceeds, the applicable Loan Party may invest an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Agreement.
(I)Notice; Manner of Payment.  Upon the occurrence of any event triggering the prepayment requirement under clauses (A) and (B) above, the Borrowers shall promptly deliver notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders.

Each prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, Term SOFR Loans and Daily Simple SONIA Loans shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.15; provided that, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, Term SOFR Loans or Daily Simple SONIA Loans are required to be made under this Section 2.10(b)(ii) prior to (x) with respect to Daily Simple SONIA Loans, the applicable Interest Payment Date therefor or (y) with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans, the last day of the Interest Period therefor, in lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)(ii) in respect of any such Daily Simple SONIA Loan prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date therefor or such Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrowers may, in their sole discretion, deposit an amount sufficient to make any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder together with accrued interest to the applicable Interest Payment Date or the last day of such Interest Period, as applicable, into an account held at, and subject to the sole control of, the Administrative Agent until such date, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Term Loans in accordance with this Section 2.10(b)(ii).  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Section 2.10(b)(ii).

(2)    to the extent that the Parent Borrower has determined in good faith and in consultation with the Administrative Agent that repatriation to the United States of any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition or any Foreign Casualty Event would have material adverse tax consequences (relative to the relevant Foreign Disposition or Foreign Casualty

Event and taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation) with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds, the Net Cash Proceeds so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of this clause (2), on or before the date on which any Net Cash Proceeds so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)(ii), (A) the Parent Borrower applies, to the extent Parent Borrower has such cash or Cash Equivalents available, an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds to such reinvestments or prepayments as if such Net Cash Proceeds had been received by the Parent Borrower rather than such Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount (the “Netted Tax Amount”) of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against it if such Net Cash Proceeds had been repatriated to the United States by such Foreign Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of this clause (A), to the extent that within 12 months of the applicable prepayment event, the repatriation of any Net Cash Proceeds from such Foreign Subsidiary would no longer have material adverse tax consequences (relative to the relevant Foreign Disposition or Foreign Casualty Event), such Foreign Subsidiary shall promptly repatriate an amount equal to the Netted Tax Amount to the Administrative Agent, which amount shall be applied to the pro rata prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(ii) or (B) such Net Cash Proceeds are applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a Foreign Subsidiary.  
SECTION 1.11Fees.
(ba)The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Lender of any Class, a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Margin on the daily amount of the difference between the Revolving Commitment of such Class of such Revolving Lender and the Revolving Credit Exposure (excluding, in the case of Global Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure, the Swingline Exposure) of such Class of such Revolving Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date.

(bb)The Parent Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Global Tranche Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to (x) for Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, Term SOFR Loans, (y) for Letters of Credit in Euros, Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (z) for Letters of Credit denominated in Sterling, Daily Simple SONIA Loans, on the average daily amount of such Global Tranche Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Global Tranche Lender’s Global Tranche Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Global Tranche Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any such LC Exposure, as well as each Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Global Tranche Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Global Tranche Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and

(bc)The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and the Administrative Agent, for their own respective accounts, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Parent Borrower, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and the Administrative Agent. 
(bd)All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders of the applicable Class. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.
SECTION 1.11Interest.  
(be)Interest Rate Options. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(b), (x) at the election of the Parent Borrower (where applicable), Revolving Loans and Term Loans that are (1) Base Rate Loans shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, (2)  Term SOFR Loans shall bear interest at the Adjusted Term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin, (3) Daily Simple SONIA Loans denominated in Sterling shall bear interest at Daily Simple SONIA plus the Applicable Margin, and (4) Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall bear interest at the applicable Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Margin, (y) any Swingline Dollar Loans shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin and (z) any Swingline Foreign Currency Loan shall bear interest at the applicable Swingline Foreign Currency Overnight Rate plus the Applicable Margin.  The Borrower shall select the rate of interest and Interest Period, if any, applicable to any Loan at the time a Borrowing Request is given or at the time an Interest Election Request.
(b)Default Rate.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan, any LC Disbursement or any fee or other amount payable by any Applicable Borrower hereunder is not paid when due (after giving effect to any grace period with respect thereto provided in Section 7.01(a)), whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall (upon, if applicable, the expiration of such grace period) bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan or any LC Disbursement or any interest on any Loan or any LC Disbursement, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan or LC Disbursement as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.12 or in Section 2.05(h) or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.12.
(c)Interest Payment and Computation.  Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto; provided that (i) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (ii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.  All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by the 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 provided hereunder 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 365/366-day year), except that interest on Loans denominated in any Foreign Currency as to which market practice differs from the foregoing shall be computed in accordance with market practice for such Loans.  
(d)Minimum Interest Payment – Swiss Withholding Tax.

80
161369281_7






(iii)By entering into this Agreement, the parties hereto have assumed in bona fide that the interest payable hereunder is not and will not become subject to any deduction of Tax on account of Swiss Withholding Tax. If a deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax is required by applicable Swiss law in respect of any interest payable by the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement and should it be unlawful for the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower under applicable Swiss law to comply with Section 2.16(a) for any reason, where this would otherwise be required by the terms of Section 2.16 (taking into account the exclusions in Section 2.16(j)), then:
(A)the applicable interest rate in relation to that interest payment shall be the interest rate which would have applied to that interest payment as provided for by Section 2.12 divided by one minus the rate at which the relevant deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax is required to be made under Swiss domestic tax law and/or applicable double taxation treaties (where the rate at which the relevant Taxes deduction is required to be made is for this purpose expressed as a fraction of one); and
(B)the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower shall (A) pay the relevant interest at the adjusted rate in accordance with subparagraph (i) above and (B) make the deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax on the interest so recalculated, and all references to a rate of interest under the Loan Documents shall be construed accordingly.
(i)To the extent that interest payable by the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement becomes subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, each relevant Lender, the Parent Borrower and the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to promptly cooperate in completing any procedural formalities (including submitting forms and documents required by the appropriate tax authority) to the extent possible and necessary:
(C)for the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower to obtain authorization to make interest payments without being subject to Swiss Withholding Tax; and
(D)to ensure that any Person entitled to a full or partial refund under any applicable double taxation treaty is so refunded.
(i)This Section 2.12(d) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Parent Borrower, any of the other Borrowers or any other Person.
(bf)Initial Benchmark Conforming Changes. In connection with the use or administration of any Benchmark, the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Parent Borrower) will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of any Benchmark.
SECTION 1.12Changed Circumstances.
(bg)Circumstances Affecting Eurocurrency Rates, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SONIA and Basic ESTR.  Subject to clause (c) below, in connection with any RFR Loan, any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or any Swingline Foreign Currency Loan, as applicable, a request therefor, a conversion to or continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that (x) if Basic ESTR or Daily Simple SONIA is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Basic ESTR or Daily Simple SONIA, as applicable, pursuant to the definition thereof or (y) if Term SOFR or a Eurocurrency Rate is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any 


81
161369281_7






other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR or such Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable, for the applicable Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan or a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan, as applicable, on or prior to the first day of such Interest Period, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that a fundamental change has occurred in the foreign exchange or interbank markets with respect to an applicable Foreign Currency (including changes in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls), (iii) with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that deposits are not being offered in the applicable Currency to banks in the London or other applicable offshore interbank market for the applicable Currency, amount or Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan or (iv) the Required Lenders shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that (x) if Basic ESTR or Daily Simple SONIA is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, Basic ESTR or Daily Simple SONIA, as applicable, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans or (y) if Term SOFR or a Eurocurrency Rate is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, Term SOFR or such Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans during the applicable Interest Period and, in the case of (x) or (y), the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Parent Borrower.  Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Parent Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make RFR Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swingline Foreign Currency Loans in each such Currency, and any right of the Borrowers to convert any Loan in each such Currency (if applicable) to, or continue any Loan as, an RFR Loan, Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Swingline Foreign Currency Loan, as applicable, in each such Currency, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected RFR Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swingline Foreign Currency Loans or, in the case of Term SOFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (iv), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.  Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Parent Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of RFR Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swingline Foreign Currency Loans in each such affected Currency (to the extent of the affected RFR Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swingline Foreign Currency Loans or, in the case of Term SOFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, (I) in the case of any request for a borrowing of an affected Term SOFR Loan, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (II) in the case of any request for a borrowing of an affected RFR Loan, Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Swingline Foreign Currency Loan in a Foreign Currency, then such request shall be ineffective and (B)(I) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period, (II) any outstanding affected Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency, at the Parent Borrower’s election, shall either (x) be converted into Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Foreign Currency) immediately or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, at the end of the applicable Interest Period or (y) be prepaid in full immediately or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, at the end of the applicable Interest Period; provided that if no election is made by the Parent Borrower by the date that is the earlier of (1) three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Parent Borrower of such notice or (2) with respect to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the last day of the current Interest Period, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected clause (x) above, and (III) any outstanding affected Swingline Foreign Currency Loans shall be repaid in full immediately or refinanced as a Base Rate Loan.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest (except with respect to any prepayment or conversion of a Daily Simple SONIA Loan or Swingline Foreign Currency Loan) on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.15.
(bh)Laws Affecting Eurocurrency Rates, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SONIA and Basic ESTR.  If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the 


82
161369281_7






Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any applicable RFR Loan, Daily Simple SONIA Loan, Term SOFR Loan, Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Swingline Foreign Currency Loan, or to determine or charge interest based upon any applicable RFR, Daily Simple SONIA, Term SOFR, Eurocurrency Rate, Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or Swingline Foreign Currency Overnight Rate, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Parent Borrower and the other Lenders (an “Illegality Notice”).  Thereafter, until each affected Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent notifies the Parent Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist, (i) any obligation of the Lenders to make RFR Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swingline Foreign Currency Loans, as applicable, in the affected Currency or Currencies, and any right of the Borrowers to convert any Loan denominated in Dollars to a Term SOFR Loan or to continue any Loan as an RFR Loan, a Term SOFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, as applicable, in the affected Currency or Currencies shall be suspended and (ii) if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Administrative Agent shall compute the Base Rate without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate”.  Upon receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrowers shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, (A) convert all Term SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loans or (B) convert all RFR Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swingline Foreign Currency Loan denominated in an affected Foreign Currency to Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Foreign Currency) (in each case, if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Administrative Agent shall compute the Base Rate without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate”), (I) with respect to Daily Simple SONIA Loans, on the Interest Payment Date therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such Daily Simple SONIA Loans to such day, or immediately, if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Daily Simple SONIA Loans to such day, (II) with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, to such day, or immediately, if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, to such day or (III) notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Swingline Foreign Currency Loans, immediately.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest (except with respect to any prepayment or conversion of a Daily Simple SONIA Loan) on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.15.
(bi)Benchmark Replacement Setting.
(ii)Benchmark Replacement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event with respect to any Benchmark, the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace such Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement.  Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Parent Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.  No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.13(c)(i) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.
(iii)Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Parent Borrower) will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(iv)Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Lenders of (A) the 


83
161369281_7






implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (B) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement and (C) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Parent Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.13(c)(iv).  Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.13(c), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.13(c).
(v)Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if any then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate or EURIBOR or the TIIE Rate) and either (1) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all affected Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
(vi)Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Upon the Parent Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a given Benchmark, (A) the Parent Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, in each case, to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period denominated in the applicable Currency and, failing that, (I) in the case of any request for any affected Term SOFR Loans, if applicable, the Parent Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (II) in the case of any request for any affected RFR Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan, in each case, in a Foreign Currency, if applicable, then such request shall be ineffective and (B)(I) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Loans, if applicable, will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans, at the end of the applicable Interest Period and (II) any outstanding affected RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, in each case, denominated in a Foreign Currency, at the Parent Borrower’s election, shall either (1) be converted into Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Foreign Currency) immediately or, in the case of Term SOFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, at the end of the applicable Interest Period or (2) be prepaid in full immediately or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, at the end of the applicable Interest Period; provided that, with respect to any Daily Simple SONIA Loan, if no election is made by the Parent Borrower by the date that is three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Parent Borrower of such notice, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above; provided, further that, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, if no election is made by the Parent Borrower by the earlier of (x) the date that is three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Parent Borrower of such notice and (y) the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan, the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest (except with respect to any prepayment or conversion of a Daily Simple SONIA Loan) on the amount so prepaid or converted, together 


84
161369281_7






with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.15.  During a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to any Benchmark or at any time that a tenor for any then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark that is the subject of such Benchmark Unavailability Period or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.  
(bj)Illegality.  If, in any applicable jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender determines that any applicable law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to (i) perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (ii) to fund or maintain its participation in any Loan or (iii) issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest or fees with respect to any extension of credit to any Borrower that is a Foreign Subsidiary, such Person shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, then, upon the Administrative Agent notifying the Parent Borrower, and until such notice by such Person is revoked, any obligation of such Person to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest or fees with respect to any such extension of credit shall be suspended, and to the extent required by applicable law, cancelled.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Loan Parties shall, (A) repay that Person’s participation in the Loans or other applicable Obligations on the applicable Interest Payment Date for any Daily Simple SONIA Loan or on last day of the Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan, or on another applicable date with respect to another Obligation, occurring after the Administrative Agent has notified the Parent Borrower or, in each case, if earlier, the date specified by such Person in the notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by applicable law) and (B) take all reasonable actions requested by such Person to mitigate or avoid such illegality.
(bk)Foreign Currencies.  If any change in currency controls or exchange regulations or any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions are imposed in the country in which such Foreign Currency is issued, and such change results in, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent (i) such currency no longer being readily available, freely transferable and convertible into Dollars, (ii) a Dollar Equivalent no longer being readily calculable with respect to such currency, (iii) such currency being impracticable for the Lenders to loan or (iv) such currency no longer being a currency in which the Required Lenders are willing to make extensions of credit (each of clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), a “Disqualifying Event”), then the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Parent Borrower, and such currency shall no longer be a Foreign Currency until such time as the Disqualifying Event(s) no longer exist.  Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall repay all Loans denominated in such currency to which the Disqualifying Event(s) apply or convert such Loans into the Dollar Equivalent in Dollars, bearing interest at the Base Rate, subject to the other terms contained herein.
SECTION 1.1Increased Costs.

attributable thereto (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (e) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes); and (A) the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender, Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any such Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient 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, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) and (B) such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, is generally demanding similar compensation from its other similar borrowers in similar circumstances, then the Parent Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(bm)If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’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 Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) and such Lender or such Issuing Bank or applicable holding company, as the case may be, is generally demanding similar amounts from its other similar borrowers in similar circumstances, then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(bn)A certificate of a Lender, an Issuing Bank or other Recipient setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, or any of their respective holding companies, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Parent Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.
(bo)Failure or delay on the part of any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Recipient to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s, such Issuing Bank’s or such other Recipient’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender, an Issuing Bank or any other Recipient pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, notifies the Parent Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s, such Issuing Bank’s or such other Recipient’s, as the case may be, intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof (except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
SECTION 1.13Indemnity. The Borrowers hereby, jointly and severally, indemnify each of the Lenders against any loss, cost or expense (including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds or from any fees payable) which may arise, be attributable to or result due to or as a consequence of (a) any failure by the Borrowers to make any payment when due of any amount due hereunder in connection with an RFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, (b) any failure of the Borrowers to borrow or continue an RFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or convert to an RFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date specified therefor in a Borrowing Request or Interest 


86
161369281_7






Election Request, (c) any failure of the Borrowers to prepay any RFR Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date specified therefor in any notice of prepayment and is revoked in accordance therewith, (d) any payment, prepayment or conversion of any Daily Simple SONIA Loan on a date other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default) or Term SOFR Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default) or (e) the assignment of any Daily Simple SONIA Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.18.  In the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the amount of such loss or expense shall be determined, in the applicable Lender’s sole discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender funded its applicable Commitment Percentage of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the London or other applicable offshore interbank market for such Currency, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded, and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which such Lender deems appropriate and practical.  A certificate of such Lender setting forth the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Parent Borrower through the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save for manifest error.  All of the obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
SECTION 1.14Taxes.  
(bp)Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up. Each payment by or on account of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by any law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.16), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such withholding been made.
(bq)Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. (i) Each Loan Party shall timely pay any Other Taxes applicable to such Loan Party, or arising as a result of such Loan Party being a party to any of the Loan Documents, in each case, to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (ii) to the extent any Other Taxes are not paid or payable under clause (i) above, the Parent Borrower shall timely pay such Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(br)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(bs)Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Recipient for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.16(d) shall be paid within 30 days after the applicable Recipient delivers to the Parent Borrower a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by such Recipient and describing the basis for the indemnification claim. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Such Recipient shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent.


87
161369281_7






(bt)Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that a Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender (including any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(g) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register) that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.16(e) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.
(bu)Status of Lenders.
(x)Any Recipient that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Recipient, if requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.16(e)(ii)(A) through (e)(ii)(E) below) shall not be required if in the Recipient’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient. Upon the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, the applicable Recipient shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.16(e). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.16(e) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Recipient, such Recipient shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.
(xi)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Borrower to which such Lender may be required to make Loans hereunder is a U.S. Person, any Lender with respect to such Borrower shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by such Borrower and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto, duly completed and executed originals of whichever of the following is applicable:
(A)in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;
(B)in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;


88
161369281_7






(C)in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender for whom payments under any Loan Document constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;
(D)in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, and (2) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1, F-2, F-3 or F-4, as applicable (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such 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 Parent Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code (c) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected;
(E)in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Loan Document (including a partnership or a participating Lender) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (F) of this paragraph (e)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or
(F)exemption from, or any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld.
(iv)If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.16(e)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date.
(v)Status of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Parent Borrower on or before the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower) (x) if the Administrative Agent is a U.S. Person, executed originals of IRS Form W-9, and (y) if the Administrative Agent is not a U.S. Person, (A) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account and (B) executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of others, certifying that it is a “U.S. branch,” that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business within the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Parent Borrower to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to such payments (and the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person with respect to such payments as contemplated by Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the United States Treasury Regulations).


89
161369281_7






(bv)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.16 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.16), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.16(g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.16(g) if such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 2.16(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(bw)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under this Agreement.
(bx)Issuing Bank. For purposes of Sections 2.16(e) and 2.16(f), the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank.
(by)Non-Bank Rules. A payment shall not be increased under this Section 2.16 or Section 2.12(d) and no indemnification shall be due under this Section 2.16, in each case, by reason of Swiss Withholding Tax in relation to payments to a specific Lender by the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement which is due to a breach of the 10 Non-Bank Rule and/or the 20 Non-Bank Rule caused by such Lender by having (i) made no or an incorrect declaration of its status as to whether or not it is a Qualifying Bank at the time it became a Lender, (ii) breached the assignment, transfer or exposure transfer provisions pursuant to Section 9.04 or (iii) ceased to be a Qualifying Bank other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or treaty, or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority.
SECTION 1.12Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.
(bz)Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency or any amounts payable in a Foreign Currency, each payment by the Borrowers on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts (including any reimbursement obligation with respect to any LC Disbursement) payable to the Lenders under this Agreement shall be made not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the account of the Lenders entitled to such payment in Dollars, in Same Day Funds and shall be made without any setoff, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency or any amounts payable in a Foreign Currency, each payment by any Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts (including reimbursement obligation with respect to any LC Disbursement) payable to the Lenders under this Agreement shall be made not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office for the account of the Lenders entitled to such payment in such Foreign Currency, in Same Day Funds and shall be made without any setoff, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever.  Any payment received after such time but before 2:00 p.m. (or, with respect to a payment to be made in a Foreign Currency, the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent) on such day shall be deemed a payment on such date for the purposes of Section 7.01, but for all other purposes shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day.  Any payment received after 2:00 


90
161369281_7






p.m. (or, with respect to a payment to be made in a Foreign Currency, the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day for all purposes.  Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of each such payment, the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each such Lender at its address for notices set forth herein its applicable Commitment Percentage in respect of the relevant credit facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment and shall wire advice of the amount of such credit to each Lender.  Each payment to the Administrative Agent on account of the principal of or interest on the Swingline Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts payable to the Swingline Lender shall be made in like manner, but for the account of the Swingline Lender.  Each payment to the Administrative Agent of any Issuing Bank’s fees or any Revolving Lender’s participant fees shall be made in like manner, but for the account of such Issuing Bank or such Revolving Lender, as the case may be.  Each payment to the Administrative Agent of Administrative Agent’s fees or expenses shall be made for the account of the Administrative Agent and any amount payable to any Lender under Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 or 9.03 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lender.  Subject to the definition of Interest Period and Interest Payment Date, if any payment under this Agreement shall be specified to be made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing any interest if payable along with such payment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States.  If, for any reason, a Borrower is prohibited by any applicable law from making any required payment hereunder in a Foreign Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency payment amount.
(ca)Subject to Section 7.03, if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.
(cb)If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans or accrued interest thereon resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender (other than pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 or 9.03), then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary 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 Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any of the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, as it may be amended from time to time) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any Eligible Assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
(cc)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the Applicable Borrower will not make such payment, the 


91
161369281_7






Administrative Agent may assume that the Applicable Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each applicable Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, (i) at the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (in the case of an amount denominated in Dollars) and (ii) the greater of the rate determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount (in the case of an amount denominated in a Foreign Currency) and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(cd)If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d), 2.05(e), 2.06(b), 2.17(d) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.
(ce)In the event that any financial statements delivered under Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b), or any Compliance Certificate delivered under Section 5.02(a), shall prove to have been inaccurate, and such inaccuracy shall have resulted in the payment of any interest or fees at rates lower than those that were in fact applicable for any period (based on the actual Consolidated Leverage Ratio), then, if such inaccuracy is discovered prior to the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment in full of the principal of all Loans and the reduction of the LC Exposure to zero, the Parent Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to the Lenders (or former Lenders) as their interests may appear, the accrued interest or fees that should have been paid but were not paid as a result of such misstatement.
SECTION 1.15Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(cf)If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, 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 2.16, 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 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Parent Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(cg)If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, 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 2.16, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or an Affected Lender or if any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Parent Borrower 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 Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Parent Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Global Tranche Revolving Commitment or LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure, as applicable, is being assigned, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and 


92
161369281_7






fees) or the Parent Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Parent Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment and delegation required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not be a party thereto.
SECTION 1.2Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(ch)commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a);
(ci)the Commitments and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or Majority in Interest of Lenders of any Class have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.02), provided that any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02, require the consent of such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof;
(cj)if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time a Global Tranche Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
(xii)the Swingline Exposure and the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than (x) any portion of such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of the term “Swingline Exposure” and (y) any portion of such Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.04(c) or Sections 2.05(d) and 2.05(e), as applicable) shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders that are Global Tranche Lenders in proportion to their respective Global Tranche Percentages, but only to the extent the sum of all such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Global Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure (other than any portion thereof referred to in the parenthetical clause above) plus such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (other than any portion thereof referred to in the parenthetical clause above) does not exceed the sum of all such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Global Tranche Revolving Commitments;

SECTION 1.01CAM Exchange. 
(lc)On the CAM Exchange Date, (i) the Commitments shall automatically and without further act be terminated as provided in Section 7.01, (ii) each Global Tranche Lender shall become obligated to fund, within one Business Day, all participations in outstanding Swingline Loans held by it (it being agreed that the CAM Exchange shall not result in a reallocation of such funding obligations, but only of the funded participations resulting therefrom), (iii) 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 prior to the CAM Exchange, such Lender shall own an interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in each of the Designated Obligations and (iv) the principal amount of each Loan and LC Disbursement denominated in a Foreign Currency shall automatically and without any further action required, be converted into Dollars determined using the Exchange Rates calculated as of the CAM Exchange Date, equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such amount and on and after such date all amounts accruing and owed to any Lender in respect of such Obligations shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder. Each Lender and each Person acquiring a participation from any Lender as contemplated by Section 9.04 hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange. Each of the Lenders agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent all such 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 promissory notes originally received by it hereunder to the Administrative Agent; provided that the failure to execute and deliver any such instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange. It is acknowledged and agreed that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph and paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 7.02 reflect an agreement entered into solely among the Lenders (and not any Borrower or other Loan Party) and the consent of any Borrower or any other Loan Party shall not be required to give effect to the CAM Exchange or with respect to any action taken by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent pursuant to such provisions.
(ld)As a result of the CAM Exchange, on and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by the Administrative 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 paragraph (c) of this Section 7.02), but giving effect to assignments after the CAM Exchange Date, it being understood that nothing herein shall be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of a single Class of Loans.


134
161369281_7






(le)In the event that, after the CAM Exchange Date, the aggregate amount of the Designated Obligations shall change as a result of the making of an LC Disbursement by an Issuing Bank that is not reimbursed by a Borrower, then (i) each Global Tranche Lender (determined as of the CAM Exchange Date but without giving effect to the CAM Exchange) shall, in accordance with Sections 2.05(d) and 2.05(e), promptly pay to such Issuing Bank an amount determined in accordance with such Sections on the basis of such Global Tranche Lender’s Global Tranche Percentage (determined as of the CAM Exchange Date but without giving effect to the CAM Exchange) of the amount due from the Applicable Borrower in respect of such LC Disbursement, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall redetermine the CAM Percentages after giving effect to such LC Disbursement and the funding of participations therein by the Global Tranche Lenders, 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 in each of the Designated Obligations and (iii) in the event distributions shall have been made in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section 7.02, 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 LC Disbursement been outstanding immediately prior to the CAM Exchange. Each such redetermination shall be binding on each of the Borrowers and Lenders and their successors and assigns and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(lf)Nothing in this Section 7.02 shall prohibit the assignment by any Lender of interests in some but not all of the Designated Obligations held by it after giving effect to the CAM Exchange; provided, that in connection with any such assignment such Lender and its assignee shall enter into an agreement setting forth their reciprocal rights and obligations in the event of a redetermination of the CAM Percentages as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph (c).
SECTION 1.02Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 7.01 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the LC Exposure has automatically been required to be cash collateralized as set forth in Section 2.05(j)), any amounts received by the Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:
First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Article II) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;
Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees (other than commitment fees and letter of credit fees payable to the Revolving Lenders), indemnities and expenses payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to any Lender and any Issuing Bank and amounts payable under Article II), ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;
Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid commitment fees, letter of credit fees and interest on the Loans, LC Disbursements and other Obligations, ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;
Fourth, (a) to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, LC Disbursements, Designated Cash Management Obligations and Designated Swap Obligations and (b) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Banks, to cash collateralize that portion of the Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount as set forth in Section 2.05(j), ratably among the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other holders of such obligations, in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them;


135
161369281_7






Fifth, to payment of all other Obligations in favor of any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Secured Party, ratably to each such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such Secured Party in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fifth held by them;
Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations (other than contingent obligations for indemnification, expense reimbursement or tax or yield protection as to which no claim has been made) have been paid in full, to the Borrowers or as otherwise required by law.
Subject to Section 2.05, amounts used to cash collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fourth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as cash collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.
ARTICLE VIII

In addition, for Mexican law purposes, each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby grants to the Person named as the Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its successors and permitted assigns, as Administrative Agent, a comisión mercantil con representación in accordance with Articles 273, 274, and other applicable articles of the Commerce Code of Mexico (Código de Comercio) to act on its behalf as its agent in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, on the terms and for the purposes set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein, and the Administrative Agent’s duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties), (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the 


136
161369281_7






circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could expose it to liability or be contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment). The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, including with respect to the existence and aggregate amount of any Designated Cash Management Obligations or Designated Swap Obligations at any time, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the signatory, sender or authenticator thereof). The Administrative Agent also may rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the signatory, sender or authenticator thereof), and may act upon any such statement prior to receipt of written confirmation thereof. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan or any issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, prior to the making of such Loan or such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Parent Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from, or be responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered on account of, any determination by the Administrative Agent (a) that any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or the effective date of such status, it being further understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to determine whether any Lender is a 


137
161369281_7






Defaulting Lender, (b) of the Exchange Rate or of the CAM Percentages, (c) of whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders shall have consented to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document, and shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, on the records maintained by it as contemplated by Section 9.04(e) and (d) as contemplated by the definition of the term “Additional Guarantee and Collateral Requirement” or by Section 5.15.
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution.
The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers under any Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any of its sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
Subject to the terms of this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time from its capacity as such. In connection with such resignation, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of its intent to resign to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Parent Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Parent Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Parent Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Parent Borrower and such successor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Parent Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, provided that solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Security Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the retiring Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and 


138
161369281_7






accepts such appointment in accordance with this paragraph (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Security Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (b) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, provided that (i) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the retiring Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the retiring Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (ii) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the retiring Administrative Agent shall also directly be given or made to each Lender and Issuing Bank. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as the Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (a) above.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender or a Disqualified Institution.
Each Lender and each Issuing Bank expressly acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any of their respective Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act taken or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any of their respective Related Parties, including any consent to, and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be deemed to constitute a representation or warranty of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any of their respective Related Parties to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Secured Party as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any of their respective Related Parties have disclosed material information in their (or their respective Related Parties’) possession.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank expressly acknowledges, represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers that (a) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (b) it is engaged in making, acquiring, purchasing or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party as a Lender for the purpose of making, acquiring, purchasing and/or holding the commercial loans set forth herein as may be applicable to it, and not for the purpose of making, acquiring, purchasing or holding any other type of financial instrument, (c) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire, purchase or hold the commercial loans applicable to it and either it or the Person exercising discretion in making its decisions to make, acquire, purchase or hold such commercial loans is experienced in making, acquiring, purchasing or holding commercial loans, (d) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and appraisal of, and investigations into, the business, prospects, operations, property, assets, liabilities, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, all applicable bank or other regulatory applicable laws relating to the Transactions and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (e) it has made its own independent decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and to extend credit hereunder and thereunder.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that (i) it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties (A) continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and 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 based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate and its own independent investigations and (B) continue to make such 


139
161369281_7






investigations and inquiries as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and (ii) it will not assert any claim in contravention of this Section 8.01.
Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement, by delivering a signature page to an Incremental Amendment, or by delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent on the Effective Date.
In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(lg)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.11, 2.12, 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(lh)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Bank (and shall be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have been authorized by each other Secured Party) to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the other Secured Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.03).
Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights of any Lender or any Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 9.08 (or any similar provision in any other Loan Document) or with respect to a Lender’s or an Issuing Bank’s right to file a proof of claim in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, no Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent (including in its capacity as the security trustee), in each case, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no Swap Contract and no agreement relating to Cash Management Services, in each case, the obligations under which constitute Obligations will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is not a party hereto shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as collateral agent (or a security trustee) under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph. Each Secured Party holding any Designated Cash Management Obligations or Designated Swap Obligations acknowledges that such Obligations shall have the benefit of the Liens provided under the Security Documents, and shall be entitled to any distributions in respect of the Collateral, in each 


140
161369281_7






case, solely to the extent that such Obligations constitute Designated Cash Management Obligations or Designated Swap Obligations. It is understood and agreed that the availability of benefits of the Collateral to any Secured Party that is not a party hereto is made available on an express condition that, and is subject to, such Secured Party not asserting that it is not bound by the appointments and other agreements expressed in this Article VIII or in Section 9.21 to be made, or deemed herein to be made, by such Secured Party. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.
No Arranger and no Person identified in this Agreement as a “Documentation Agent” or a “Syndication Agent” shall have any obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank), but all such Persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities and exculpatory provisions provided for hereunder or thereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Lenders and the Arrangers are arms-length counterparties and none of such Lenders or Arrangers shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender or Arranger.
The Administrative Agent shall be permitted from time to time to designate one of its Affiliates to perform the duties to be performed by the Administrative Agent hereunder with respect to Loans and Borrowings denominated in Foreign Currencies. The provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any such Affiliate, mutatis mutandis.

(iii)(A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, 


141
161369281_7






the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement; or
(iv)such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.
(lj)In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in (a) accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and their respective Affiliates and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, that none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).
SECTION 1.02Erroneous Payments.
(lk)Each Lender, each Issuing Bank, each other Secured Party and any other party hereto hereby severally agrees that if (i) the Administrative Agent notifies (which such notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error) such Lender or Issuing Bank or any other Secured Party (or the Lender Affiliate of a Secured Party) or any other Person that has received funds from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, either for its own account or on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or other Secured Party (each such recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) or (ii) any Payment Recipient receives any payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted or received in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) then, in each case, an error in payment shall be presumed to have been made (any such amounts specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 8.03(a), whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”), then, in each case, such Payment Recipient is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of its receipt of such Erroneous Payment; provided that nothing in this Section shall require the Administrative Agent to provide any of the notices specified in clauses (i) or (ii) above. Each Payment Recipient agrees that it shall not assert any right or claim to any Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.
(ll)Without limiting the immediately preceding clause (a), each Payment Recipient agrees that, in the case of clause (a)(ii) above, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such occurrence.
(lm)In the case of either clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and upon demand from the Administrative Agent such Payment Recipient shall (or, shall cause any Person who received any portion of an Erroneous Payment on its behalf to), promptly, but in all events no later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion 


142
161369281_7






thereof) as to which such a demand was made in Same Day Funds and in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the Overnight Rate.
(ln)In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (c), from any Lender that is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Lender, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), then at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and upon the Administrative Agent’s written notice to such Lender (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the full face amount of the portion of its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) to the Administrative Agent or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s applicable lending affiliate in an amount that is equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned amount, without further consent or approval of any party hereto and without any payment by the Administrative Agent or its applicable lending affiliate as the assignee of such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (1) any assignment contemplated in this clause (d) shall be made without any requirement for any payment or other consideration paid by the applicable assignee or received by the assignor, (2) the provisions of this clause (d) shall govern in the event of any conflict with the terms and conditions of Section 9.04 and (3) the Administrative Agent may reflect such assignments in the Register without further consent or action by any other Person.
(lo)Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent (1) shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient with respect to such amount and (2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.03 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, (y) the receipt of an Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the purpose of this Agreement be treated as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other satisfaction of any Obligations owed by the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations and (z) to the extent that an Erroneous Payment was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case may be, shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received.
(lp)Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.03 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.
(lq)Nothing in this Section 8.03 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of the Administrative Agent hereunder arising from any Payment Recipient’s receipt of an Erroneous Payment.

161369281_7






(lv)The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make Communications available to the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other Electronic System. Any Electronic System used by the Administrative Agent is provided “as is” and “as available.”  The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of any Electronic System and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or any Electronic System. Although the Electronic Systems are secured pursuant to generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Agent Parties, each Loan Party, each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges and agrees that distribution of information through an electronic means is not necessarily secure in all respects, the Agent Parties are not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives, designees or contacts of any Lender or any Issuing Bank that are provided access to any such Electronic System and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such form of distribution.  Each Loan Party, each Lender and each Issuing Bank understands and accepts such risks. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to any Borrower, any other Loan Party, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person for damages of any kind, including without limitation direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise), arising out of the Loan Parties’ or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Communications through an Electronic System, except, as to any Agent Party, to the extent that any such direct damages (as opposed to indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages) 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 Agent Party.
(lw)The Administrative Agent hereby designates its office located at the address set forth above, or any subsequent office which shall have been specified for such purpose by written notice to the Parent Borrower and Lenders, as the Administrative Agent’s Office referred to herein, to which payments due are to be made and at which Loans will be disbursed and Letters of Credit requested.
SECTION 1.04Waivers; Amendments.
(lx)No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
(ly)Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 9.02, none of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Required Lenders, and in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment that has been terminated pursuant to the terms hereof) or increase the amount of Loans of any Lender, in any case, or change the currency in which Loans are available thereunder, without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, reduce the rate of interest thereon or reduce any fees payable 


145

(i)the Parent Borrower, provided that no consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (provided that such Affiliate of a Lender is a Qualifying Bank, or in case it is not, consent of the Parent Borrower has been obtained, which consent shall not be withheld in case the transfer or assignment does not lead to a violation of the Non-Bank Rules) or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; provided, further, that (A) the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received written notice thereof and (B) each Lender herewith declares that it is a Qualifying Bank and each Lender who becomes a Party after the date of this Agreement shall declare the relevant transfer certificate or assignment agreement which it executes on becoming a Party, whether it is a Qualifying Bank and, if it is not a Qualifying Bank, that it only counts as one (1) Non-Qualifying Bank for purposes of determining the number of Non-Qualifying Banks;

of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;
(x)the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Assumption posted on the Electronic System), together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500;

(mo)Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignees (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the 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 Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.16(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.16(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04; provided that such Participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.17 and 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04; (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation; and (iii) Excluded Taxes in respect of the Participant shall be determined in reference to the date such Person becomes a Participant (as distinguished from the date the participating Lender became party hereto). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations (or any successor thereof, including proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(b)). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(mp)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(mq)Disqualified Institutions. 
(v)No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or participate all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Parent Borrower has consented to such assignment or participation in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation).  For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee that becomes a 


153
161369281_7






Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Institution”), (x) such assignee shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and  (y) the execution by the Parent Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment in violation of this clause (i)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (i) shall apply. 
(vi)If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Institution without the Parent Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Revolving Commitment of such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such Revolving Commitment, (B) in the case of outstanding Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans held by Disqualified Institutions, purchase or prepay such Term Loan or Incremental Term Loan by paying the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such Term, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder and/or (C) require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 12.9), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder. 
(vii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Institutions (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization, each Disqualified Institution party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan of reorganization, (2) if such Disqualified Institution does vote on such plan of reorganization notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan of reorganization in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court of the United States (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).
(viii)The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrowers hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by the Parent Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) on the applicable Electronic System, including that portion of the Electronic System that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender requesting the same. 
SECTION 1.01Survival. 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 


154
161369281_7






been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document 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 the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any LC Exposure is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in the event that an Issuing Bank shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a written consent to the release of the Global Tranche Lenders from their obligations hereunder with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (whether as a result of the obligations of the Applicable Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with such Issuing Bank, or being supported by a letter of credit that names such Issuing Bank as the beneficiary thereunder, or otherwise), then from and after such time such Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including for purposes of determining whether the Parent Borrower is required to comply with Articles V and VI hereof, but excluding Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 9.03 and any expense reimbursement or indemnity provisions set forth in any other Loan Document), and the Global Tranche Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 2.05(d) or 2.05(e). The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 
SECTION 1.02Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.
(mr)This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and 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, including the commitments of the Lenders and, if applicable, their Affiliates, set forth in any commitment letter entered into in connection herewith (but do not supersede any provisions of any such commitment letter that by their terms survive the effectiveness of this Agreement). 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 which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by fax or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
(ms)The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery” and words of like import in or related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document, amendment, approval, consent, waiver, modification, information, notice, certificate, report, statement, disclosure, or authorization to be signed or delivered in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures or execution in the form of an Electronic Record, and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, deliveries 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.  Each party hereto agrees that any Electronic Signature or execution in the form of an Electronic Record shall be valid and binding on itself and each of the other parties hereto to the same extent as a manual, original signature.  For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the parties of a manually signed paper which has 


155
161369281_7






been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed paper converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature from any party hereto, the Administrative Agent and the other parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the executing party without further verification and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by an original manually executed counterpart thereof.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and any of the Loan Parties, electronic images of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (in each case, including with respect to any signature pages thereto)  shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (B) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents based solely on the lack of paper original copies of any Loan Documents, including with respect to any signature pages thereto.
SECTION 1.06Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 1.07Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any of the Borrowers against any of and all the obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.
SECTION 1.08Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.
(mt)THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
(mu)Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding brought by it shall be brought, and heard and determined, exclusively in such Federal court or, in the event such Federal court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, such New York State court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or operate to preclude (i) the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction (A) to realize on, or foreclose on, any Collateral or any other security for the Obligations or (B) to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, (ii) any party from bringing any legal action or proceeding in any jurisdiction for the recognition and enforcement of any judgment, (iii) if all such New York Courts decline jurisdiction over any Person, or decline (or in the case of the Federal District Court, lack) jurisdiction over any subject matter of, or Person party to, such action or proceeding, a legal action or proceeding may be brought with respect thereto in another court having jurisdiction and (iv) in the event a legal action or 


156
161369281_7






proceeding is brought against any party hereto or involving any of its assets or property in another court (without any collusive assistance by such party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates), such party from asserting a claim or defense (including any claim or defense that this Section 9.09(b) would otherwise require to be asserted in a legal proceeding in a New York Court) in any such action or proceeding.
(mv)Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.09. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(mw)Each Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers the Parent Borrower, and the Parent Borrower hereby accepts such appointment, as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and in respect of its property, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents that may be served in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to any Subsidiary Borrower in care of the Parent Borrower at the Parent Borrower’s address used for purposes of giving notices under Section 9.01, and each Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Parent Borrower to accept such service on its behalf.
(mx)In the event any Subsidiary Borrower or any of its assets has or hereafter acquires, in any jurisdiction in which judicial proceedings may at any time be commenced with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any immunity from jurisdiction, legal proceedings, attachment (whether before or after judgment), execution, judgment or setoff, such Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives such immunity.
SECTION 1.10WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.10.
SECTION 1.11Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
SECTION 1.12Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and their Related Parties, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (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 or be subject to customary confidentiality obligations of employment or professional practice), (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (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 to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding 


157
161369281_7






relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.12, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (or its advisors), (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their Obligations or (iii) any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrowers and their Obligations, with the consent of the Parent Borrower, (f) on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the credit facilities provided for herein, or (g) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.12 or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries. For the purposes of this Section 9.12, “Information” means all information, including MNPI, received from the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries relating to such entities or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.12 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. It is agreed that, notwithstanding the restrictions of any prior confidentiality agreement binding on the Administrative Agent or any Arranger relating to this Agreement, such Persons may disclose Information as provided in this Section 9.12.
EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MNPI AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MNPI AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE MNPI IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY ANY LOAN PARTY OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MNPI. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE PARENT BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MNPI IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.
SECTION 1.13Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.13 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.
SECTION 1.14Certain Notices. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act and/or the Beneficial Ownership Regulation hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to such requirements, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information 


158
161369281_7






that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the USA Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.
SECTION 1.15Conversion of Currencies.
(my)If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.
(mz)The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Parent Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such deficiency. The obligations of the Parent Borrower contained in this Section 9.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.
SECTION 1.20[Reserved].
SECTION 1.21Release of Liens and Guarantees.
(na)The Guarantees made under the Master Guaranty Agreement and the Parent Guaranty and the Liens created under the Security Documents shall automatically terminate and be released when all the Obligations (other than (i) contingent obligations for indemnification, expense reimbursement or tax or yield protection as to which no claim has been made, (ii) Designated Cash Management Obligations, (iii) Designated Swap Obligations for which arrangements satisfactory to a counterparty have been made, (iv) Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars which have been cash collateralized at 103% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit or for which other arrangements satisfactory an Issuing Bank have been made and (v) Letters of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency which have been cash collateralized at 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of such Letter of Credit or for which arrangements satisfactory an Issuing Bank have been made) have been paid in full in cash, the Lenders have no further commitment to lend under this Agreement and the Issuing Banks have no further obligation to issue, amend or extend Letters of Credit under this Agreement.
(a)Except with respect to Dart, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Master Guaranty Agreement and the Security Documents, and all security interests created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released, upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary; provided that (i) if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise and (ii) the release of Subsidiary Guarantors comprising substantially all of the value of the Guarantees created under the Master Guarantee shall be subject to Section 9.02(b)(xi).
(b)Upon any Disposition by the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor (other than to the Parent Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor, or to any Subsidiary that, upon the consummation of such Disposition, would be required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor) of any Collateral (other than any Collateral under, and as defined in, the Dart Security Agreement) in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.02, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Security Documents shall be automatically 


159
161369281_7






released; provided that any release of all or substantially of the Collateral (as defined in the Master Collateral Agreement) shall be subject to Section 9.02(b)(xii).
(c)Liens on Collateral shall be automatically released as set forth in Section 5.17(a).
(d)In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 9.17, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to the Parent Borrower, at the Parent Borrower’s expense, all documents that the Parent Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 9.17 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. Each of the Secured Parties irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to effect the releases and give directions set forth in this Section 9.17.  In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Section 9.17 and any release or termination provisions set forth in any Security Document, the provisions of this Section 9.17 shall govern and control.
SECTION 1.16Parent Borrower as Agent of Subsidiary Borrowers. Each Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Parent Borrower as its agent for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including (a) the giving and receipt of notices (including any Borrowing Request and any Interest Election Request) and (b) the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein.
SECTION 1.17No Fiduciary Relationship. The Borrowers, on behalf of themselves and their Subsidiaries, agree that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications. The Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates may be engaged, for their own accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrowers hereby agree not to assert any claims against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
SECTION 1.18Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of a Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(nb)the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder that may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(nc)the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i)a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii)a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or


160
161369281_7






(iii)the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any Resolution Authority.
SECTION 1.5Acknowledgment Regarding any Supported QFCs. 
(nd)To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Contracts or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties hereto acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States).
(ne)In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
SECTION 1.19Limitations Regarding the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower.
(nf)Notwithstanding any other (contrary) provision contained herein or in any other Loan Documents, this Section 9.22 shall prevail over any other provisions herein or in any other Loan Documents.
(ng)If and to the extent that the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower is liable pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents for, or with respect to, obligations of its direct or indirect parent companies (up-stream liabilities) or sister companies (cross-stream liabilities) and if complying with such obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents would, under applicable Swiss law, constitute a repayment of capital (Einlagerückgewähr; remboursement du capital), a violation of the legally protected reserves (gesetzlich geschützte Reserven; réserves légales bloquées) or the payment of a (constructive) dividend (Gewinnausschüttung; distribution de bénéfices) by the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower or would otherwise be restricted under applicable Swiss corporate law (the “Restricted Obligations”), then the aggregate liability of the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower for Restricted Obligations shall from time to time be limited to the amount permitted to be paid under applicable Swiss law (the “Permitted Amount”); provided, that, such Permitted Amount shall at no time be less than the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower’s freely distributable capital (presently being the balance sheet profits and any reserves available for distribution) at the time or times the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower is required to perform under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents; provided, further, that, such limitation (as may apply from time to time or not) shall not (generally or definitively) free or otherwise release the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower from its obligations in excess of the Permitted Amount, but that it shall merely postpone the performance date of those obligations until such time or times as performance is again permitted notwithstanding such limitation.

(nh)In case the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower must make a payment in respect of Restricted Obligations and is obliged to withhold Swiss Withholding Tax in respect of such payment, the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower shall:
(iv)promptly procure that such payments can be made without deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax, or with deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax at a reduced rate, by discharging the liability to such tax by notification pursuant to applicable law (including double tax treaties) rather than payment of the tax;
(v)if the notification procedure pursuant to subparagraph (i) above does not apply, deduct Swiss Withholding Tax at the rate of thirty-five percent (35%) (or such other rate as in force from time to time), or if the notification procedure pursuant to subsection (i) above applies for a part of the Swiss Withholding Tax only, deduct Swiss Withholding Tax at the reduced rate resulting after the discharge of part of such tax by notification under applicable law, from any payment made by it in respect of Restricted Obligations and promptly pay any such taxes to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration;
(vi)promptly notify the Administrative Agent that such notification or, as the case may be, deduction has been made and provide the Administrative Agent with evidence that such a notification of the Swiss Federal Tax Administration has been made or, as the case may be, such taxes deducted have been paid to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration;
(vii)in the case of a deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax, use its best efforts to ensure that any Person, other than the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates, which is entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax deducted from such payment in respect of Restricted Obligations, will, as soon as possible after such deduction (A) request a refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax under applicable law (including tax treaties), (B) pay to the Administrative Agent upon receipt any amounts so refunded and (C) if the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Lender is entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax deducted from such payment and if requested by the Administrative Agent, provide the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender with those documents that are required by law and applicable tax treaties to be provided by the payer of such tax in order to enable the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender to prepare a claim for refund of Swiss Withholding Tax.
(ni)If the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower is obliged to withhold Swiss Withholding Tax in accordance with Section 9.22(c) above, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to further enforce the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower’s liabilities under this Agreement or another Loan Documents and apply the proceeds therefrom against the Restricted Obligations up to an amount which is equal to that amount which would have been obtained if no withholding of Swiss Withholding Tax were required, whereby such further enforcements shall always be limited to the Permitted Amount.
(nj)If and to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent and if and to the extent this is from time to time required under Swiss law (restricting profit distributions), in order to allow the Administrative Agent (and the Lenders and the Issuing Lender) to obtain a maximum benefit under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower shall promptly implement all such measures and/or to promptly procure the fulfillment of all prerequisites allowing the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower to promptly perform its obligations and make the (requested) payment(s) hereunder or under any other Loan Documents from time to time, including the following:
(xiii)preparation of an up-to-date audited balance sheet of the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower
(xiv)confirmation of the auditors of the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower that the payable amount represents the Permitted Amount;
(xv)approval by a shareholders’ meeting of the of the capital distribution;

(xvi)to the extent permitted by applicable law (A) write up or realize any of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets, in case of realization, however, only if such assets are not necessary for the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower business (nicht betriebsnotwendig) and/or (B) reduce its share capital; and
(xvii)to the extent permitted by law, all such other measures necessary or useful to allow the Swiss Subsidiary Borrower to promptly make the payments and perform the obligations agreed hereunder or any other Loan Documents with a minimum of limitations.
