.  

(a)

Pro Rata Shares.  All Loans shall be made, and all participations purchased, by Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares of the applicable Class of Loans, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby nor shall any Term Loan Commitments or any Revolving Commitments of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby.

(b)

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount on such Credit Date.  If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by the Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three (3) Business Days and thereafter, if such Loan is in Dollars, at the Base Rate, if such Loan is in Canadian Dollars, at the Canadian Prime Rate, and if such Loan is in Euros or any Other Foreign Currency, at the rate certified by the Administrative Agent to be its cost of funds (from any source which it may reasonably select).

Section 2.06

Use of Proceeds

.  The proceeds of the Term Loans shall be applied by the Borrowers to fund the Transactions. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans, Letters of Credit and any loans under any Ancillary Facility made after the Closing Date shall be applied by the applicable Borrower for working capital or general corporate purposes of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, including Permitted Acquisitions.

The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower Representative at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice and upon request (which may not be made more than once per month) the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of the information in the Register to the Borrower.  The Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Revolving Commitments and the Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on each Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error.  Each Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as such Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.07, and each Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent the Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, the Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and Affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”

Section 2.08

Interest on Loans

.  

(a)

Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Class of Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows:

(i)

in the case of Tranche A Term Loans and Revolving Loans:

(A)

if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; 

(B)

if a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Margin and plus Mandatory Costs, if any; or

(C)

if a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, at the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin; 

(ii)

in the case of Swing Line Loans, at the Base Rate or the Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable, plus the Applicable Margin; and

(iii)

in the case of Tranche B Term Loans:

(A)

if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or

(B)

if a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Margin and plus Mandatory Costs, if any.

(b)

The Type of Loan (except a Swing Line Loan, which can be made and maintained as a Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan only), and the Interest Period with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be selected by the applicable Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conver­sion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be; provided, that until the date on which the Arrangers notify the Borrower Representative that the primary syndication of the Loans and Revolving Commitments has been completed (which date shall be not later than twenty-eight (28) days after the Closing Date), the Term Loans shall be maintained as either (1) Eurocurrency Rate Loans having an Interest Period of no longer than one month or (2) Base Rate Loans (or Canadian Prime Rate Loans) or such shorter period as the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree.  If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan, if a Loan denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, shall be a Base Rate Loan or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, as applicable, and, if a Loan denominated in any other Approved Currency, shall be a Eurocurrency Rate Loan having an Interest Period of one month.






81















(c)

In connection with Eurocurrency Rate Loans there shall be no more than five (5) Interest Periods outstanding at any time in respect of each of the Tranche A Term Loans and the Tranche B Term Loans, no more than ten (10) Interest Periods outstanding at any time in respect of the U.S. Revolving Loans, no more than five (5) Interest Periods outstanding at any time in respect of the Canadian Revolving Loans, and no more than ten (10) Interest Periods outstanding at any time in respect of the Foreign Revolving Loans.  In the event the Borrower Representative fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan in the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice for any Loan denominated in Dollars, such Loan (if outstanding as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan) shall be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then-current Interest Period for such Loan (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan shall remain as, or (if not then outstanding) shall be made as, a Base Rate Loan).  In the event the Borrower Representative fails to specify an Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Loan in the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month.  As soon as practicable after 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) or, with respect to Loans in respect of Foreign Revolving Commitments, 10:00 a.m. (London, England time), on each Interest Rate Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Eurocurrency Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower Representative and each Lender.  In the event that the Borrower Representative fails to specify between a Canadian Prime Rate Loan and a Eurocurrency Rate Loan in the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conver­sion/Continuation Notice for any Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, such Loan (if outstanding as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan) shall be automatically converted into a Canadian Prime Rate Loan on the last day of the then-current Interest Period for such Loan (or if outstanding as a Canadian Prime Rate Loan shall remain as, or (if not then outstanding) shall be made as, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan).  

(d)

Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.08(a) shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day year, as the case may be and (ii) in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues.  In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Term Loan, the last Interest Payment Date with respect to such Term Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

(e)

Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date with respect to interest accrued on and to each such payment date; (ii) upon any prepayment of such Loan,

whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; provided, that with respect to any voluntary prepayment of a Base Rate Loan and a Canadian Prime Rate Loans, accrued interest shall instead be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date and (iii) at maturity of such Loan, including final maturity of such Loan. 

(f)

The applicable Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuing Bank, with respect to drawings honored under a Letter of Credit, interest on the amount paid by the Issuing Bank in respect of each such honored drawing from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by or on behalf of the applicable Borrower at a rate equal to (i) for the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the applicable Reimbursement Date, the rate of interest otherwise payable hereunder with respect to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans (or if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate) or, with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars or Canadian Dollars, Eurocurrency Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month, and (ii) thereafter, a rate which is 2.00% per annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable hereunder with respect to such Revolving Loans.

(g)

Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.08(f) shall be computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of Credit is reimbursed in full.  Promptly upon receipt by the Issuing Bank of any payment of interest pursuant to Section 2.08(f), the Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender, out of the interest received by the Issuing Bank in respect of the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date on which the Issuing Bank is reimbursed for the amount of such drawing (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of any Revolving Loans), the amount that such Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the letter of credit fee that would have been payable in respect of such Letter of Credit for such period if no drawing had been honored under such Letter of Credit.  In the event the Issuing Bank shall have been reimbursed by Lenders for all or any portion of such honored drawing, the Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under Section 2.04(e) with respect to such honored drawing such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any interest received by the Issuing Bank in respect of that portion of such honored drawing so reimbursed by Lenders for the period from the date on which the Issuing Bank was so reimbursed by Lenders to but excluding the date on which such portion of such honored drawing is reimbursed by the applicable Borrower.

(h)

The rate and time of payment of interest in respect of any Ancillary Facility shall be determined by agreement between the relevant Ancillary Lender and the Borrower under such Ancillary Facility based on normal market rates and terms.

(i)

For purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever any interest under this Agreement is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, the rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided by 360 or 365, as the case may be, (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not 






83















apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement, and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

Section 2.09

Conversion/Continuation

.  

(a)

Subject to Section 2.18 and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, the Borrowers shall have the option:

(i)

to convert at any time all or any part of any Term Loan or Revolving Loan denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars equal to $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided, that a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate Loan unless the U.S. Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.18 in connection with any such conversion; or

(ii)

upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan;

provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, no conversion or continuation of any Loan pursuant to this Section shall affect the currency in which such Loan is denominated prior to any such conversion or continuation and each such Loan shall remain outstanding denominated in the currency originally issued.

(b)

The Borrower Representative shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) or, with respect to Loans in respect of Foreign Revolving Commitments, 10:00 a.m. (London, England time), at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan) and at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Conversion/Continuation Date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan).  Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any Eurocurrency Rate Loans, shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and each Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

Section 2.10

Default Interest

.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (c) (in the case of a failure to perform or comply with any term or condition contained in Section 6.07(a) or (b)), (f), (g), or (h) and, at the request of the Required Lenders, any other Event of Default, the principal amount of all Loans outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable on demand at a rate (the “Default Rate”) that is 2.00% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2.00% per annum in excess of 






84















the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans); provided, that in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars and Canadian Dollars, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable, and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 2.00% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans.  Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.10 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

92















(ii)

(iii)

Section 2.15

Application of Prepayments/Reductions; Application of Proceeds of Collateral

.

(a)

Application of Voluntary Prepayments by Type of Loans.  Any prepayment of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.13(a) shall be applied as specified by the applicable Borrower in the applicable notice of prepayment; provided that any voluntary prepayment pursuant to Section 2.13(a) of Term Loans must be made pro rata to all Term Loans (but may be applied to the Installments thereof as determined by the Borrower Representative); provided, further, that in the event the applicable Borrower fails to specify the Loans to which any such prepayment shall be applied, such prepayment shall be applied as follows:

first, to repay outstanding Swing Line Loans to the full extent thereof;

second, to repay outstanding Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof; and

third, to prepay the Term Loans on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof); and applied to reduce in direct order of maturity the next four scheduled Installments of the Tranche A Term Loans and Tranche B Term Loans due and thereafter on a pro rata basis to reduce the scheduled remaining Installments of the Tranche A Term Loans and Tranche B Term Loans; 

in each case, for the avoidance of doubt, allocated on a pro rata basis among the applicable U.S. Loans and Foreign Loans.

(b)

Application of Mandatory Prepayments by Type of Loans.  Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Sections 2.14(a) through 2.14(d) shall be applied to prepay Term Loans on a pro rata basis in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof and further applied to reduce in direct order of maturity the next four scheduled Installments due and thereafter on a pro rata basis to the remaining scheduled Installments of principal of the Tranche A Term Loans and Tranche B Term Loans, in each case, for the avoidance of doubt, allocated on a pro rata basis among the applicable U.S. Loans and Foreign Loans.

(c)

Waivable Mandatory Prepayment.  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, so long as any Tranche A Term Loans are outstanding, in the event the Borrower Representative is required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Tranche B Term Loans, pursuant to Section 2.14, not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which the 






95















Borrower Representative is required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, the Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Tranche B Term Loan of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount.  Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of its election to do so on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the third Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option).

(e)

Application of Proceeds of Collateral.  

(i)

Except as expressly set forth in clause (ii) below, all proceeds received by the Administrative Agent from the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the Administrative Agent against, the Obligations in the following order of priority:  first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder (in its capacity as the Administrative Agent and not as a Lender) and all advances made by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the applicable Loan Party, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the Credit Agreement, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof; second, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to repay any outstanding Swing Line Loans and amounts drawn under Letters

97















(b)

All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan (other than voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans, Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans) shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments (and, in any event, any payments in respect of any Loan on a date when interest is due and payable with respect to such Loan) shall be applied to the payment of interest then due and payable before application to principal.

(c)

The Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by the Administrative Agent.

(d)

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/ Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(e)

Subject to the provisos set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” as they may apply to Revolving Loans, whenever any payment to be made hereunder with respect to any Loan shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to Revolving Loans only, such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder or of the Revolving Commitment fees hereunder.

(f)

Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day.  The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to the Borrower Representative and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming.  Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.01(a).  

(g)

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and not otherwise been waived, and the maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.01, all payments or proceeds received by Agents hereunder in respect of any of the Obligations, shall be applied in accordance with the application arrangements described in Section 2.15(e). 

(h)

If a CKI Blockage Event has occurred and is continuing, any payment, including any prepayments or distribution of any kind or character (whether required by this Agreement or optionally made by any Loan Party) shall be accompanied by a certificate, duly executed by an Authorized Officer of the U.S. Borrower stating that no part of such payment or distribution constitutes a CK Distribution, and such reasonable evidence as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request supporting such certification.

Section 2.17

Ratable Sharing

.  The Lenders to the U.S. Borrower agree among themselves, on the one hand, and the Lenders to the Foreign Borrower hereby agree among themselves, on the other hand, that, except as otherwise provided in the Security Documents with respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with respect to Liens on the Collateral, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of Letters of Credit, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  The provisions of this Section 2.17 shall not be construed to apply to (a) any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or payments made with proceeds of Collateral applied as set forth in Section 2.15(e) or (b) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Obligations owed to it.

Section 2.18

Making or Maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Loans

.  

(a)

Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate.  In the event of any Market Disruption, the Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower Representative and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) with respect to Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, (x) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, Eurocurrency Rate Loans until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Representative and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist and (y) any Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by the Borrower Representative with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by the Borrower Representative, and (ii) with respect to Loans denominated in Euros or Other Foreign Currency, if the Administrative Agent or the Borrower Representative so require, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative will negotiate in good faith for a period of not more than 30 days in order to agree on a mutually acceptable substitute basis for calculating the interest payable on the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans and, (x) if a substitute 






99















basis is agreed within that period between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative, then it shall apply in accordance with its terms (and may be retrospective to the beginning of the relevant Interest Period) and (y) unless and until a substitute basis is so agreed, the interest payable to such Lenders on the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans for the relevant Interest Period will be the rate notified to the Administrative Agent by that Lender to be its cost of funds (from any source which it may reasonably select) plus the Applicable Margin and, if applicable, Mandatory Costs.

(b)

Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any law, treaty, governmental rules, regulation or guideline or order, or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans as contemplated by this Agreement (such Lender an “Affected Lender”), (i) the Commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans, continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall forthwith be canceled until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain the affected Loan and (ii) with respect to any such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, respectively, on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law.  If any such conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.18(c).

(c)

Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods.  The applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Lender to Lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurocurrency Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender actually sustains as a direct result of any of the following circumstances: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Borrowing Notice, or a conversion to or continuation of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its Eurocurrency Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan; or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurocurrency Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the applicable Borrower or the Borrower Representative.

(d)

Booking of Eurocurrency Rate Loans.  Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurocurrency Rate Loans at, to or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender.

(e)

Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurocurrency Rate Loans.  Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Eurocurrency Rate 






100















Loans through the purchase of a Eurocurrency deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurocurrency deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to the relevant office of such Lender; provided, that each Lender may fund each of its Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19.

Section 2.19

Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy

.  

(a)

Compensation For Increased Costs.  In the event that any Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.19(a)) shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law): (i) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate); or (ii) imposes any other condition on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the London interbank market or the relevant off-shore interbank market for any Approved Currency; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or acquiring participations in, issuing or maintaining Letters of Credit hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the applicable Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder.  Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.19(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.19(a) shall not apply to any Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 2.20.  

(b)

Capital Adequacy Adjustment.  In the event that any Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.19(b)) shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability after the Closing Date of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the 






101















interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or Revolving Commitment or Letters of Credit, or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans or the Letters of Credit, to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower Representative from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.19(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

Section 2.20

(a)

Payments to Be Free and Clear.  All sums payable by or on behalf of any Loan Party hereunder and under any other Loan Document shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority.

(b)

Withholding of Taxes.  If any Loan Party or any other Person is required by law to make any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Indemnified Tax from any sum paid or payable by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.20(b)) under any of the Loan Documents: (i) the applicable Loan Party shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as the applicable Loan Party becomes aware of it; (ii) the applicable Borrower shall pay any such Indemnified Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on any Loan Party) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on the Administrative Agent or such Lender) on behalf of and in the name of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be; (iii) the sum payable by such Loan Party in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made (after taking into account any additional deduction, withholding or payment of any Indemnified Taxes on such increased payment); and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the due date of payment of any Indemnified Tax which it is required by clause (ii) 






102















above to pay, the applicable Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority. 

(c)

Evidence of Exemption From Withholding Tax.  Any Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.20(c)) that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which any Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable requirements of law and reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable requirements of law and any other information (including whether such Lender has complied with the FATCA) as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes and that is a Lender to a U.S. Loan (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) (for this purpose, including any Commitment with respect thereto) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Borrower Representative, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be prescribed by law or as may be necessary in the determination of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (i) two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming the benefits of any applicable income tax treaty), W-8ECI, W-8EXP and/or W-8IMY (or, in each case, any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to establish that such Lender is not subject to (or is subject to a reduced rate of) deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents or (ii) if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is relying on the so-called “portfolio interest exemption,” a Certificate re Non-Bank Status together with two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest payable under any of the Loan Documents.  Each Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for United States federal income tax purposes (a “U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative on or prior to the Closing Date (or, if later, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement) two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, certifying that such U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax, or otherwise prove that it is entitled to such an exemption. Each Lender required to deliver any forms, 






103















certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this Section 2.20(c) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative two (2) new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8IMY, W-8EXP and/or W-9 (or, in each case, any successor form), or a Certificate re Non-Bank Status, as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to (or is subject to a reduced rate of) deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents, or notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.  No Borrower shall be required to pay any additional amount to any Non-U.S. Lender under Section 2.20(b)(iii) with respect to Indemnified Taxes imposed by reason of such Lender’s failure (1) to deliver the forms, certificates or other evidence required by this Section 2.20(c) or (2) to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence, as the case may be; provided, that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirements to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence under this Section 2.20(c) on the Closing Date or on the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it became a Lender, as applicable, nothing in this last sentence of Section 2.20(c) shall relieve any Loan Party of its obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20 in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof that becomes effective after such date, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender is not subject to withholding as described herein.

(d)

Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.20(b), each Loan Party shall timely pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities in accordance with applicable law.  Each Loan Party or the Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Administrative Agent official receipts or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in respect of any Other Taxes payable hereunder promptly after payment of such Other Taxes.

(e)

If the Administrative Agent or a Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.20(e)) receives a refund of any amount as to which a Borrower has made any payments pursuant to this Section 2.20, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall pay over any such refund to such Borrower, net of such Lender’s expenses and out-of-pocket costs; provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (including any applicable interest, fees and penalties) in the event that the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority.

(f)

The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and any Lender (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 






104















2.20(f)) for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes for which additional amounts are required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.20(b) and Other Taxes, in each case arising in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including any such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.20) paid by the Administrative Agent or Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Loan Party shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Such payment shall be due within thirty (30) days of such Loan Party’s receipt of such certificate.

Section 2.21

Obligation to Mitigate

.  Each Lender (which term shall include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.21) agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans or Letters of Credit, as the case may be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, it shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions through another office of such Lender or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Revolving Commitments, Loans or Letters of Credit through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect the interests of such Lender in any material respect; provided, that such Lender shall not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.21 unless the Borrower Representative agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above.  A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by the Borrower Representative pursuant to this Section 2.21 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.21 shall relieve any Lender from its obligations pursuant to Section 2.20(c) of this Agreement. 

Section 2.22

Defaulting Lenders

.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any obligations of any Lender to purchase participations in or otherwise refinance or support any Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit exist at the time any Lender having a Revolving Commitment becomes a Defaulting Lender (such Lender, a “Defaulting Revolving Lender”) then:  

(a)

all obligations of the applicable Defaulting Revolving Lender to purchase participations in or otherwise refinance or support such Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders of the applicable Class in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share thereof, but only to the extent (i) (x) with respect to U.S. Swing Line Loans and U.S. Letters of Credit, the sum of the non-Defaulting Revolving 






105















Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares of the Total Utilization of U.S. Revolving Commitments plus such Defaulting Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of U.S. Revolving Exposure do not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ U.S. Revolving Commitments, (y) with respect to Canadian Swing Line Loans and Canadian Letters of Credit, the sum of the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares of the Total Utilization of Canadian Revolving Commitments plus such Defaulting Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Canadian Revolving Exposure do not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Canadian Revolving Commitments and (z) with respect to Foreign Letters of Credit, the sum of the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares of the Total Utilization of Foreign Revolving Commitments plus such Defaulting Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Foreign Revolving Exposure do not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Foreign Revolving Commitments and (ii) in each case, the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at such time; 

(b)

if the reallocation described in clause (a) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the applicable Borrower shall (i) first, within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, prepay any outstanding Swing Line Loans to the extent the obligations of the applicable Defaulting Revolving Lender to purchase participations in or otherwise refinance or support Swing Line Loans have not been reallocated pursuant to clause (a) above and (ii) second, within three Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the obligations to purchase participations in or otherwise refinance or support Letters of Credit (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (a) above) for so long as such obligations are outstanding; and

(c)

if the obligations of the applicable Defaulting Revolving Lender to purchase participations in or otherwise refinance or support Letters of Credit are reallocated among the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders pursuant to clause (a) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares.

Section 2.23

Removal or Replacement of a Lender

.  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to the Borrower Representative that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments remain in effect, and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five (5) Business Days after the Borrower Representative’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) (i) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, (ii) such Defaulting Lender’s default remains in effect and (iii) such Defaulting Lender shall fail to cure the default as a result of which it has become a Defaulting Lender within five (5) Business Days thereafter; or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.05(b), the consent of Required Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), the Borrower Representative may, by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such 






106















Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans and its Revolving Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06 and the applicable Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable thereunder in connection with any such assignment from an Increased-Cost Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender or a Defaulting Lender; provided, that (1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to the Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings on Letters of Credit that have been funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.11, such amounts to be calculated based on the Dollar Equivalent thereof with respect to the U.S. Term Loans, U.S. Revolving Commitments or Canadian Revolving Commitments and based on the Euro Equivalent thereof with respect to the Foreign Term Loans or Foreign Revolving Commitments; (2) on the date of such assignment, the applicable Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(c), 2.19 or 2.20; or otherwise as if it were a prepayment and (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender; provided, that the applicable Borrower may not make such election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also the Issuing Bank unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, the applicable Borrower shall have caused each outstanding Letter of Credit issued thereby to be cancelled, replaced or Cash Collateralized. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Revolving Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, that any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender.  Each Lender agrees that if a Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by such Lender as a Terminated Lender, such Lender shall, promptly after receipt of written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 10.06.  In the event that a Lender does not comply with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence within one Business Day after receipt of such notice, each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 10.06 on behalf of a Terminated Lender and any such documentation so executed by the Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 10.06.

Section 2.24

Incremental Facilities

.  The Borrower Representative may by written notice to the Administrative Agent at any time more than 90 days after the Closing Date elect to request (A) prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, an increase to the existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, the “Incremental Revolving Commitments”) and/or (B) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “Incremental Term Loan Commitments”), by an amount not in excess of $250,000,000 in the aggregate and not less than $25,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by the Administrative Agent or such lesser amount that shall constitute the difference between $250,000,000 and all such Incremental Revolving Commitments and Incremental Term Loan Commitments obtained prior to such date), and integral multiples of $10,000,000 in excess 






107















of that amount.  Each such notice shall specify (A) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower Representative proposes that the Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (B) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, an “Incremental Revolving Loan Lender” or “Incremental Term Loan Lender”, as applicable) to whom the Borrower Representative proposes any portion of such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, be allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided that the Administrative Agent may elect or decline to arrange such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments in its sole discretion and any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide an Incremental Revolving Commitment or an Incremental Term Loan Commitment.  Such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (1) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; (2) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of Incremental Term Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 shall be satisfied; (3) the U.S. Borrower shall be in pro forma compliance with each of the covenants set forth in Section 6.07 as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; (4) the Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the applicable Borrower, the Incremental Revolving Loan Lender or Incremental Term Loan Lender, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and each Incremental Revolving Loan Lender and Incremental Term Loan Lender shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.20(c); (5) the applicable Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.18(c) in connection with the Incremental Revolving Commitments; (6) the applicable Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents (including modifications of Mortgages and title insurance endorsements or policies) as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction and (7) the applicable Borrower shall have paid all fees and expenses owing to the Agents and the Lenders in respect of such Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments.  Any Incremental Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated a separate series (a “Series”) of Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

On any Increased Amount Date on which Incremental Revolving Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (a) each of the Lenders with Revolving Commitments of the same Class shall assign to each of the Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders, and each of the Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders shall purchase from each of such Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the applicable Revolving Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by existing Lenders with Revolving Commitments of the same Class and Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving 






108















Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Incremental Revolving Commitments to the Revolving Commitments of the applicable Class, (b) each Incremental Revolving Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment of the applicable Class and each Loan made thereunder (an “Incremental Revolving Loan”) shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan of the applicable Class and (c) each Incremental Revolving Loan Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the Incremental Revolving Commitment and all matters relating thereto.

On any Increased Amount Date on which any Incremental Term Loan Commitments of any Series are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each Incremental Term Loan Lender of any Series shall make a Loan to the Borrowers (an “Incremental Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such Series and (ii) each Incremental Term Loan Lender of any Series shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such Series and the Incremental Term Loans of such Series made pursuant thereto.

The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly upon receipt of the Borrower Representative’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (y) the Incremental Revolving Commitments and the Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders or the Series of Incremental Term Loan Commitments and the Incremental Term Loan Lenders of such Series, as applicable and (z) in the case of each notice to any applicable Lender with Revolving Commitments, the respective interests in such Lender’s Revolving Loans, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this Section.

The terms and provisions of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Joinder Agreement, identical to the Tranche B Term Loans of the same Class.  The terms and provisions of the Incremental Revolving Loans shall be identical to the Revolving Loans of the same Class.  In the case of any Incremental Term Loans, (i) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of all Incremental Term Loans of any Series shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Tranche B Terms Loans, (ii) the applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date of each Series shall be no earlier than the final maturity of the Term Loans, and (iii) the yield and all other terms applicable to the Incremental Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by the Borrower Representative and the applicable new Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder Agreement; provided, however, that the yield applicable to the Incremental Term Loans (after giving effect to all rate floors and all fees or original issue discount payable with respect to such Incremental Term Loans), as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, shall not be greater than the applicable interest rate (including the Applicable Margin and rate floor) payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as amended through the date of such calculation with respect to the Tranche B Term Loans, plus 0.25% per annum unless (i) the interest rate with respect to the Tranche B Term Loans is increased so as to cause the then applicable interest rate under this Agreement on the Tranche B Term Loans to be not more than 0.25% less than the yield then applicable to the Incremental Term Loans (after giving effect to all rate floors and all fees or original issue discount payable with respect to such Incremental Term Loans) and (ii) the interest rate with respect to Tranche A Term Loans is increased by an amount equal to the amount of any increase in the interest rate for Tranche B Term Loans pursuant to clause (i).  Any Incremental Revolving Loans will be documented solely 






109















as an increase to the Revolving Commitments of the same Class without any change in terms, other than any change that is more favorable to the Revolving Lenders and applies equally to all Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments of the same Class.  Each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Incremental Revolving Loan Lender or Incremental Term Loan Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent to effect the provisions of this Section 2.24.  

Section 2.25

Appointment of Borrower Representative

.  Each Borrower hereby appoints the Borrower Representative as its agent, attorney-in-fact and representative for the purpose of (i) making any borrowing requests or other requests required under this Agreement, (ii) the giving and receipt of notices by and to Borrowers under this Agreement, (iii) the delivery of all documents, reports, financial statements and written materials required to be delivered by Borrowers under this Agreement, and (iv) all other purposes incidental to any of the foregoing.  Each Borrower agrees that any action taken by the Borrower Representative as the agent, attorney-in-fact and representative of the Borrowers shall be binding upon each Borrower to the same extent as if directly taken by such Borrower. 

Section 2.26

(b)

Availability.

(i)

If the Foreign Borrower or any other Ancillary Borrower and a Lender agree and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, such Lender may provide an Ancillary Facility on a bilateral basis in place of all or part of that Lender's unutilized Foreign Revolving Commitment (which, except for the purposes of determining the Required Lenders and for the purpose of Section 2.23, shall be reduced by the amount of the Ancillary Commitment under that Ancillary Facility).  

(ii)

An Ancillary Facility shall not be made available unless, not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Ancillary Commencement Date for such Ancillary Facility, the Administrative Agent has been notified in writing by the Borrower Representative that such Ancillary Facility has been established and specifying (1) the proposed Ancillary Commencement Date and expiration date of the Ancillary Facility; (2) the proposed type of Ancillary Facility to be provided, (3) the proposed Ancillary Lender and Ancillary Borrower, (4) the proposed Ancillary Commitment, the maximum amount of the Ancillary Facility and, if the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, its maximum gross amount (that amount being the "Designated Gross Amount") and its maximum net amount (that amount being the 






110















"Designated Net Amount"); and (5) the proposed currency of the Ancillary Facility (if not denominated in Euros).

(iii)

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Ancillary Lender and the other Lenders of the establishment of an Ancillary Facility.  Subject to compliance with clause (b)(ii) above, (x) the Lender concerned will become an Ancillary Lender and (y) the Ancillary Facility will be available, with effect from the date agreed by the Borrower Representative, the applicable Ancillary Borrower and the Ancillary Lender.

(iv)

No amendment or waiver of a term of any Ancillary Facility shall require the consent of any Lender other than the relevant Ancillary Lender unless such amendment or waiver itself relates to or gives rise to a matter which would require an amendment of or under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under this Section 2.26).  In such a case, the provisions of this Agreement with regard to amendments and waivers will apply.

(c)

Terms of Ancillary Facilities.

(i)

Except as provided below, the terms of any Ancillary Facility will be those agreed by the applicable Ancillary Lender and the applicable Ancillary Borrower; provided that such terms (1) must be based upon normal commercial terms at that time (except as varied by this Agreement); (2) may allow only the applicable Ancillary Borrower to use the Ancillary Facility; (3) may not allow the Ancillary Outstandings to exceed the Ancillary Commitment; (4) may not allow the Ancillary Commitment of a Lender to exceed the Foreign Revolving Commitment of that Lender; and (5) shall require that the Ancillary Commitment shall be reduced to zero, and that all Ancillary Outstandings shall be repaid (or cash collateralized in a manner acceptable to the applicable Ancillary Lender) not later than the Foreign Revolving Commitment Termination Date (or such earlier date as the Foreign Revolving Commitment of the relevant Ancillary Lender is reduced to zero).

(ii)

If there is any inconsistency between any term of an Ancillary Facility and any term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail except for (x) Sections 2.08(d), 2.08(g), and 2.11(d) which shall not prevail for the purposes of calculating fees, interest or commission relating to an Ancillary Facility; (y) an Ancillary Facility comprising more than one account where the terms of the Ancillary Documents shall prevail to the extent required to permit the netting of balances on those accounts; and (z) where the relevant term of this Agreement would be contrary to, or inconsistent with, the law governing the relevant Ancillary Document, in which case that term of this Agreement shall not prevail.

(iii)

Interest, commission and fees on Ancillary Facilities are dealt with in Sections 2.08(h) and 2.11(e).

(d)

Repayment of Ancillary Facility.

(ii)

If an Ancillary Facility expires in accordance with its terms, the Ancillary Commitment of the Ancillary Lender shall be reduced to zero (and such Lender’s Foreign Revolving Commitment shall be increased accordingly).

(iii)

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

(iv)

For the purposes of determining whether or not the Ancillary Outstandings under an Ancillary Facility mentioned in clause (c)(iii)(z) above can be refinanced by a Foreign Revolving Loan, (x) the Foreign Revolving Commitment of the Ancillary Lender will be increased by the amount of its Ancillary Commitment; and (y) the Foreign Revolving Loan may (so long as clause (c)(iii)(x) above does not apply) be made irrespective of whether a Default is outstanding or any other applicable condition precedent is not satisfied (but only to the extent that the proceeds are applied in refinancing those Ancillary Outstandings) and irrespective of whether the applicable Foreign Borrower or the Borrower Representative shall have delivered a Borrowing Notice. 

(v)

On the making of a Foreign Revolving Loan to refinance Ancillary Outstandings, (x) each Lender will participate in such Foreign Revolving Loan on a pro rata basis in accordance with its respective Foreign Revolving Commitment (as determined by the Administrative Agent); and (y) the relevant Ancillary Facility shall be cancelled. 

(vi)

In relation to an Ancillary Facility which comprises an overdraft facility where a Designated Net Amount has been established, the Ancillary Lender providing that Ancillary Facility shall only be obliged to take into account for the purposes of calculating compliance with the Designated Net Amount those credit balances which it is permitted to take into account by the then current law and regulations 






112















in relation to its reporting of exposures to applicable regulatory authorities as netted for capital adequacy purposes.

(e)

Ancillary Outstandings.

Each Ancillary Borrower and each Ancillary Lender agrees with and for the benefit of each Lender that (i) the Ancillary Outstandings under any Ancillary Facility provided by that Ancillary Lender shall not exceed the Ancillary Commitment applicable to that Ancillary Facility and where the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, Ancillary Outstandings under that Ancillary Facility shall not exceed the Designated Net Amount in respect of that Ancillary Facility; and (ii) where all or part of the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, the Ancillary Outstandings (calculated on the basis that the words in parentheses in paragraph (a) of the definition of that term were deleted) shall not exceed the Designated Gross Amount applicable to that Ancillary Facility.

(f)

Information.

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

No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock or for any purpose that violates, or is inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors.  

Section 4.17

Employee Benefit Plans

.  Each Group Member and each of their respective ERISA Affiliates are in compliance with all applicable provisions and requirements of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, and have performed all their obligations under each Employee Benefit Plan, other than as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that such Employee Benefit Plan is so qualified and nothing has occurred subsequent to the issuance of such determination letter which would cause such Employee Benefit Plan to lose its qualified status, in each case, other than as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No material liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments), the Internal Revenue Service, any Employee Benefit Plan (other than in the ordinary course) or any trust established under Title IV of ERISA has been or is expected to be incurred by any Group Member or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan.  No ERISA Event or Foreign Plan Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur where such ERISA Event or Foreign Plan Event would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each Pension Plan sponsored, maintained or contributed to by any Group Member or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates (determined as of the end of the most recent plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in the most recent actuarial valuation for such Pension Plan) did not exceed the aggregate current fair market value of the assets of such Pension Plan, where such circumstance would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan, the potential liability of the Group and its ERISA Affiliates for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 or Section 4205 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, does not exceed $25,000,000.  Each Group Member and each of their ERISA Affiliates have materially complied with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with respect to each Multiemployer Plan and are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan.  To the extent applicable, each Foreign Plan has been maintained in substantial compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable all laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities, other than as would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Foreign Plan which is required under all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority to be funded satisfies in all material respects any 






125















applicable funding standard under all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority. For each Foreign Plan which is not funded or which is not required to be fully funded under all applicable laws, rules regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority, the unfunded obligations of such Foreign Plan are properly accrued in all material respects.  Neither any Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is or has at any time been the employer, or connected or associated with the employer (as those terms are used in the UK Pensions Act 2004) in relation to a UK defined benefit pension plan. 

Section 4.18

Solvency

.  The Group Members are and, upon the incurrence of any Obligation on any date on which this representation and warranty is made, shall be, on a consolidated basis, Solvent.  

Section 4.19

Compliance with Statutes, Etc.

  Each Group Member is in compliance with all applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all Governmental Authorities, in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its assets and property (but excluding any Environmental Laws, which are subject to Section 4.13), except such non-compliance that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.  To the extent applicable, each Loan Party is in compliance, in all material respects, with (i) the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto.  No part of the proceeds of the Loans shall be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

Section 4.20

Disclosure

.  No representation or warranty of any Loan Party contained in any Loan Document or in any other documents, certificates or written statements furnished to any Agent or Lender by any Group Member (or by its agents on its behalf) for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact (known to it, or to the Borrower Representative in the case of any document not furnished by it) necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein (when furnished and taken as a whole) not materially misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were made.  Any projections and pro forma financial information contained in such materials are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by the U.S. Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results and such differences may be material. 

Section 4.21

Intellectual Property

.  

(a)

Except where the failure to do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or except where the failure to do so is a result of a transaction or transactions permitted by this Agreement, each of the Loan Parties (i) is the sole and exclusive owner of the entire right, title, and interest in and to all of the 






126















Intellectual Property listed on Schedule 4.21 (as such schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to time pursuant to a Counterpart Agreement or pursuant to Section 5.01(k)(ii), 5.14 or otherwise), and possesses all rights to sue at law or in equity for any infringement, misappropriation or other impairment thereof, including the right to receive all royalties, license fees, proceeds and damages therefrom, free and clear of all Liens, claims and licenses, except for Permitted Liens and (ii) owns or, pursuant to written agreement, has the valid right to use and, where such Loan Party does so, sublicense others to use, all other Intellectual Property used in or necessary to conduct its business (including granting of outbound licenses of such rights).  All Material Intellectual Property of each Loan Party is subsisting and has not been adjudged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, nor, in the case of Patents, is any of the Intellectual Property the subject of a reexamination proceeding, and each Loan Party has performed all acts and has paid all renewal, maintenance, and other fees and taxes required to maintain each and every registration and application of Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks of such Loan Party constituting Material Intellectual Property in full force and effect.  No holding, decision, ruling, or judgment has been rendered in any action or proceeding before any court or administrative authority challenging the validity, enforceability, or scope of, or any Loan Party’s right to register, own or use, any Material Intellectual Property of such Loan Party, and no such action or proceeding is pending or, to the knowledge of any Authorized Officer of any Borrower, threatened, nor does any Loan Party know of any valid basis for any such action, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Except where the failure to do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) all registrations, issuances and applications for Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks of each Loan Party are standing in the name of such Loan Party (or the CKI Trust), and (ii) all exclusive Copyright Licenses constituting Material Intellectual Property in respect of registered Copyrights, if any, have been properly recorded in the United States Copyright Office or, where appropriate, any foreign counterpart.  To the knowledge of any Authorized Officer of any Borrower, the use of Material Intellectual Property by such Loan Party does not infringe or misappropriate the rights of any person, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b)

Except where the failure to do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Loan Party has been using appropriate statutory notice of registration in connection with its use of registered Trademarks, proper marking practices in connection with its use of Patents, and appropriate notice of copyright in connection with the publication of Copyrights.  Except where the failure to do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Loan Party has taken commercially reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality of its Trade Secrets in accordance with industry standards.  Except where the failure to do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Loan Party controls the nature and quality of all products sold and all services rendered by it under or in connection with its Trademarks, in each case consistent with industry practices, and has taken all commercially reasonable actions necessary to ensure that all licensees of the Trademarks owned by such Loan Party comply with such Loan Party’s standards of quality, in each case, to the extent such Trademarks constitute Material Intellectual Property.






127















(c)

To the knowledge of any Authorized Officer of any Borrower, (i) the conduct of such Loan Party’s business does not infringe, misappropriate, dilute or otherwise violate any Intellectual Property right of any other Person, except where such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) no claim exists that the use of any Material Intellectual Property owned or used by any Loan Party (or any of its respective licensees) infringes, misappropriates, dilutes or otherwise violates the asserted rights of any other Person.  To the knowledge of any Authorized Officer of any Borrower, no Person is infringing, misappropriating, diluting or otherwise violating any rights in any Intellectual Property owned, licensed or used by such Loan Party, or any of its respective licensees, except where such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No settlement or consents, covenants not to sue, co-existence agreements, non-assertion assurances, or releases have been entered into by any Loan Party or bind any Loan Party in a manner that could adversely affect such Loan Party’s rights to own, license, transfer, or use any of the Material Intellectual Property in a manner consistent with the way such Loan Party conducts its business as of the date hereof.

(d)

Except as may be provided under the CKI Documents, neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will alter, impair or otherwise affect or require the consent, approval or other authorization of any other person in respect of any ownership, contractual or other right of any Loan Party in any Material Intellectual Property.

(e)

Except where the failure to do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Loan Party has taken commercially reasonable actions to maintain the secrecy and security of its and its Subsidiaries material Software, networks and databases, and to the knowledge of any Authorized Officer of any Borrower, none of the Software owned by the Loan Party or its Subsidiaries and material to their businesses contains any open source code where the consequences of containing such code would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.22

Ranking; Security

.  

(a)

Each Loan Party’s obligations under the Loan Documents ranks at least equally in right of payment with all of its unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, other than those that are mandatorily preferred by law applying to companies generally and other than with respect to the CKI Obligations and the 2023 Debentures Obligations to the extent set forth in the CKI Intercreditor Agreement.

(b)

Each Security Document creates the security interest that it purports to create and such security interests are valid and effective in all material respects to the extent required therein. 

Section 4.23

Centre of Main Interests and Establishments

.  Each Loan Party whose jurisdiction of incorporation is in a member state of the European Union has its “centre of main interest” (as that term is used in Article 3(l) of The Council of the European 






128















Union Regulation No. 1346/2000 on Insolvency Proceedings (the “Regulation”) in its jurisdiction of incorporation and has no “establishment” (as that term is used in Article 2(h) of the Regulation) in any other jurisdiction.

Section 4.25

Shares

.  

(a)

The shares of any Group Member which are subject to the German Security are fully paid in and not subject to any option to purchase or similar rights. The constitutional documents of companies whose shares are subject to the German Security do not restrict or inhibit any transfer of those shares on creation or enforcement of the German Security, unless appropriate resolutions to overcome such restrictions and/or inhibitions are taken to the satisfaction of the Collateral Agent. There are no agreements in force which provide for the issue or allotment of, or grant any person the right to call for the issue or allotment of, any share or loan capital of any member of the Group (including any option or right of pre-emption or conversion).

ARTICLE VII.

GUARANTY

Section 7.01

Guaranty of the Obligations

.  

(a)

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.02, each U.S. Guarantor jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations of the Borrowers (or, in the case of the U.S. Borrower, all Obligations of the Foreign Borrower) when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or any comparable provision of any other Debtor Relief Law) (the “U.S. Guaranteed Obligations”). 

(b)

Subject to the provisions of Sections 7.02, 7.13 and 7.14, each Foreign Guarantor, jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations of the Foreign Borrower on demand when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)) (the “Foreign Guaranteed Obligations” and, together with the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

Section 7.02

Limitation on Liability; Contribution by Guarantors

.  

(a)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Guarantor, and by acceptance of the benefits hereof, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that each Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy 






162















Code or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to each Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor hereunder not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

(b)

The U.S. Guarantors (the “U.S. Contributing Guarantors”) and Foreign Guarantors (the “Foreign Contributing Guarantors,” and collectively with the U.S. Contributing Guarantors, the “Contributing Guarantors”) desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations and Foreign Guaranteed Obligations, respectively, arising under this Guaranty; provided that nothing in this Section 7.02 shall operate or be construed to allocate to any Foreign Contributing Guarantor any Obligation of the U.S. Borrower or to permit any payment by a Foreign Guarantor to reduce any Obligations of the U.S. Borrower.  Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceed its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other applicable Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each such Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date.  “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations or Foreign Guaranteed Obligations, as applicable.  “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of any Debtor Relief Law; provided, that solely for purposes of calculating the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 7.02, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including in respect of this Section 7.02), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other applicable Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.02.  The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor.  The allocation among the applicable Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.02 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing 






163















Guarantor hereunder.  Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.02.

Section 7.03

Payment by Guarantors

.  

(a)

Subject to Sections 7.02, 7.13 and 7.14, the U.S. Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Secured Party may have at law or in equity against any U.S. Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of any Borrower to pay any of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or any comparable provision of any other Debtor Relief Law), the U.S. Guarantors shall upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all U.S. Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such U.S. Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for any Borrower’s becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Law, would have accrued on such U.S. Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against such Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case or analogous proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law) and all other U.S. Guaranteed Obligations then owed to the Secured Parties as aforesaid.

(b)

Subject to Sections 7.02, 7.13 and 7.14, the Foreign Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Secured Party may have at law or in equity against any Foreign Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of the Foreign Borrower to pay any of the Foreign Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or any comparable provision of any other Debtor Relief Law), the Foreign Guarantors shall upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Foreign Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Foreign Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for the Foreign Borrower’s becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Law, would have accrued on such Foreign Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against the Foreign Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case or analogous proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law) and all other Foreign Guaranteed Obligations then owed to the Secured Parties as aforesaid.

Section 7.04

Liability of Guarantors Absolute

.  Each Guarantor agrees that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a Guarantor or surety other than Payment in Full of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, as follows:






164















(a)

this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectability.  This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety;

(b)

the Administrative Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between any Borrower and any Secured Party with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

(c)

the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of each Borrower and the obligations of any other Guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of each Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against such Borrower or any of such other Guarantors and whether or not such Borrower is joined in any such action or actions;

(d)

payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations;

(e)

any Secured Party, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Secured Party in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Secured Party may have against any such security, in each case as such Secured Party in its discretion may determine consistent herewith, the applicable Hedge Agreement, Cash Management Agreement or Treasury Transaction and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor 






165















against any Borrower or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Loan Documents or any Hedge Agreements, Cash Management Agreements or Treasury Transactions; and

(f)

this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than Payment in Full of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Loan Documents, any Hedge Agreements, any Cash Management Agreements or any Treasury Transactions, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Loan Documents, any of the Hedge Agreements, Cash Management Agreements or Treasury Transactions or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Loan Document, such Hedge Agreement, such Cash Management Agreement, such Treasury Transaction or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect (other than with respect to defense of payment or performance in full); (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Loan Documents, any of the Hedge Agreements, any of the Cash Management Agreements, any Treasury Transaction or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as Collateral for Indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of Indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Secured Party might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Secured Party’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Group Member and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses (other than defense of payment or performance in full), set-offs or counterclaims which any Borrower may allege or assert against any Secured Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or omission, or delay to do any other act, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 7.05

Waivers by Guarantors

.  Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of the Secured Parties: (a) any right to require any Secured Party, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other Guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any such other

(i)

.  This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations and Foreign Guarantee Obligations, respectively, shall have been Paid in Full.  Each Guarantor hereby 






169















irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 7.09

Authority of Guarantors or the Borrowers

Section 7.10

Financial Condition of the Borrowers

.  Any Credit Extension may be made to any Borrower or continued from time to time, and any Hedge Agreements, Cash Management Agreements and Treasury Transactions may be entered into from time to time, in each case without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of such Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation or at the time such Hedge Agreement is entered into, as the case may be.  No Secured Party shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of such Borrower.  Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from each Borrower on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of each Borrower and its ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents, any Hedge Agreements, any Cash Management Agreements or any Treasury Transactions, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of each Borrower and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 7.11

(b)

Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the applicable Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and Secured Parties that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve any Borrower of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations.  Guarantors shall permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person under any Debtor Relief Law to pay the Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of the 






170















Administrative Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.

(c)

In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by any Borrower, the obligations of the Guarantors with respect to such amounts hereunder shall be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Secured Party as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder.

Section 7.12

Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor

.  If all of the Equity Interests of any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of or such Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case in accordance with the terms hereof or as otherwise consented to by the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.05), the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Secured Party or any other Person effective as of the time of such transaction.

Section 7.13

German Guarantor Limitations.  

(a)

To the extent a Guarantor which is a German limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung – GmbH) (the “Affected German Guarantor”) guarantees Obligations of the Foreign Borrower under the Agreement (such guarantee an “Up-Stream or Cross-Stream Security”), the parties hereto agree that enforcement of that guaranty shall be limited to the extent that such payment under this guaranty has the effect of (i) reducing the Affected German Guarantor’s Net Assets (Reinvermögen) to an amount less than its share capital (Stammkapital) (Begründung einer Unterbilanz) or (ii) if its Net Assets are already an amount less than its share capital (Stammkapital), causing such Net Assets to be further reduced (Vertiefung einer Unterbilanz), and, as a result, cause a violations of sections 30 and 31 German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbH-Gesetz) (as amended from time to time). 

(b)

No reduction of the amount enforceable under this guarantee in accordance with this Section 7.13 will prejudice the rights of the Collateral Agent or any Lender to claim to continue enforcing this guaranty until full satisfaction of the guaranteed claims (subject always to the operation of the limitation set out above at the time of such enforcement).

(c)

For the purposes of the calculation of the amount to be paid under Section 7.13(a) the following balance sheet items shall be adjusted as follows:

(i)

the amount of any increase of the Affected German Guarantor’s share capital (Stammkapital) effected in violation of the Agreement shall be deducted from the share capital (Stammkapital); 






171















(ii)

loans provided to the Affected German Guarantor after the date hereof by any Group Member shall be disregarded insofar as such loans are or will in an insolvency scenario be subordinated by law or by contract at least to the rank pursuant to Section 39 (1) Nr. 5 of the German Insolvency Code (InsO);

(iii)

loans and other contractual liabilities incurred by the Affected German Guarantor in violation of the provisions of the Agreement shall be disregarded;

(iv)

the Net Assets shall take into account the costs of the Auditor’s Determination (as defined below), either as a reduction of assets or an increase of liabilities; and

(v)

for the determination of Net Assets, the assets and liabilities of the Affected German Guarantor shall be calculated on the basis of liquidation values (Liquidationsbewertung) unless a continuation of the Affected German Guarantor’s business, taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, any payments to be made by the Affected German Guarantor under the guaranty, is deemed more likely than not pursuant to Section 19(2)1 of the German Insolvency Code (InsO) (positive Fortführungsprognose) and justifies a valuation as going concern at book values (Buchwerten). 

(d)

The Affected German Guarantor shall realize, to the extent legally permitted and commercially reasonable, in a situation where it does not have sufficient Net Assets to maintain its stated share capital, any and all of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value (Buchwert) that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets if the relevant asset is not necessary for its business (betriebsnotwendig).

(e)

Notwithstanding the above, this Section 7.13 shall not apply to any amounts due and payable relating to funds made available and still outstanding under the Agreement which have been made available by a Borrower or another member of the Group to the Affected German Guarantor or its Subsidiaries in any form (including, without limitation, by way of on-lending under an intercompany-loan (weitergeleitetes Gesellschafterdarlehen), a capital infusion or otherwise.

(f)

The limitations set out in this Section 7.13 shall not apply:

(i)

if and to the extent that within 10 Business Days following the demand against an Affected German Guarantor under this guarantee (the “Guarantee Demand”) the managing directors of the Affected German Guarantor have not confirmed in writing to the Collateral Agent (x) to what extent this guarantee is an Up-Stream or Cross-Stream Security and (y) the amount which can be enforced without causing the Net Assets of the Affected German Guarantor to fall below its stated share capital, such confirmation to be supported by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent including unaudited interim financial statements up to the end of the last completed calendar month (taking into account the adjustments set out in Section 7.13(c)) (the “Management Determination”); or






172















(ii)

if the Collateral Agent notifies the Affected German Guarantor that he contests the Management Determination within ten Business Days of the Collateral Agent’s receipt of the Management Determination and the Affected German Guarantor does not deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Collateral Agent within 30 Business Days from receipt of such notification a determination by auditors of international standard and reputation as appointed by the Affected German Guarantor of the amount that can be enforced without causing the Net Assets of the Affected German Guarantor to fall below its stated share capital based on a financial statement up to the end of the last completed calendar month which shall be based on the same accounting principles that were applied when establishing the previous year's financial statement and calculated and adjusted in accordance with Section 7.13(a) and (c) (the “Auditor's Determination”).

(g)

If the Collateral Agent disagrees with the Management Determination and/or the Auditor's Determination, this guarantee shall be enforceable up to the amount which is undisputed. In relation to the amount which is disputed, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to further pursue its claims and enforce this guarantee always subject to Section 7.13(a) up to and including Section 7.13(e) above if it determines in good faith that the financial condition of the Affected German Guarantor as set forth in the Auditor's Determination and/or the Management Determination has substantially improved (in particular, if the Affected German Guarantor has performed any actions in accordance with Section 7.13(d) which have not been taken into account in the Management Determination and/or the Auditor's Determination) and that all or part of the amount which is disputed is no longer necessary for maintaining the stated share capital of the Affected German Guarantor (calculated as of the date the Guarantee Demand was made), and notifies the Affected German Guarantor of such amount setting out in reasonable detail the reasons why this amount is no longer necessary for maintaining the stated share capital of the Affected German Guarantor, for the avoidance of doubt it being understood that the Affected German Guarantor shall not be obliged to pay such amount on demand. From receipt of such notification by the Affected German Guarantor, Section 7.13(f) and Section 7.13(g) shall apply accordingly to the enforcement of the relevant amount. Furthermore, in relation to the amount which is disputed, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall be entitled to further pursue (including, but not limited in court) their payment claims under the guarantee granted by the Affected German Guarantor (if any) in excess of the amounts paid or payable pursuant to Section 7.13(g) above, for the avoidance of doubt it being understood that the Affected German Guarantor shall not be obliged to pay such amount on demand. 

(h)

For purposes of this Section 7.13, “Net Assets” shall mean the assets pursuant to section 266 (2) (A), (B) and (C) of German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch) less the sum of the non-subordinated liabilities pursuant to section 266 (3) (B), (C) and (D) of German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch), taking into account the items set out in Section 7.13(c).

(i)

The provisions set out in this Section 7.13 shall apply mutatis mutandis to any security granted by an Affected German Guarantor being a German limited partnership (Kommanditgesellschaft, “GmbH & Co. KG”) if the enforcement would lead to a violation of Sections 30, 31 German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbH-Gesetz) with regard to its general partner (Komplementär).

.  DBSI is hereby appointed the Syndication Agent hereunder, and each Lender hereby authorizes DBSI to act as the Syndication Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents.  Barclays Bank is hereby appointed the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby authorizes Barclays Bank to act as the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents.  Each of BAS, CS Securities and RBC is hereby appointed a Co-Documentation Agent hereunder, and each Lender hereby authorizes each of BAS, CS Securities and RBC to act as a Co-Documentation Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents.  Each Agent hereby agrees to act in its capacity as such upon the express conditions contained herein and the other Loan Documents, as applicable.  The provisions of this Article IX (other than as expressly provided herein) are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders and no Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the 






178















provisions of this Article IX (other than as expressly provided herein).  In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Group Member.  Each of the Syndication Agent and each Co-Documentation Agent, without consent of or notice to any party hereto, may assign any and all of its rights or obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates.  Each of the Syndication Agent and each Co-Documentation Agent shall be released from the restrictions of Section 181 German Civil Code (BGB - Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch), and similar restrictions under any other applicable law, and shall be authorized to delegate this power of attorney, including the release from such restrictions.

Section 9.02

Powers and Duties

.  Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto.  In the event that any obligations (other than the Obligations) are permitted to be incurred hereunder and secured by Liens permitted to be incurred hereunder on all or a portion of the Collateral, each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into Intercreditor Agreements, subordination agreements and amendments to the Security Documents to reflect such arrangements on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.  Each Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Loan Documents.  Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees.  No Agent shall have, by reason hereof or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship or other implied duties in respect of any Lender, any Loan Party or any other Person; and nothing herein or any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under the agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.  

Section 9.03

General Immunity

(a)

No Responsibility for Certain Matters.  No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or any other Loan Document, or for the creation, perfection or priority of 






179















any Lien, or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by any Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of any Loan Party or to any Agent or Lender in connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Loan Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall any Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Loan Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default or as to the value or sufficiency of any Collateral or as to the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein (other than confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent) or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Group Member or to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing.  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the Letter of Credit Usage or the component amounts thereof.

(b)

Exculpatory Provisions.  No Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to the Lenders (i) for any action taken or omitted by any Agent (A) under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents or (B) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement) except to the extent caused by such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  No Agent shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose or be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection herewith or any of the other Loan Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.05) and, upon receipt of such instructions from Required Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions and shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law.  Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for a Group Member), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.05).

Delegation of Duties. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it and to grant an exemption from any restrictions to any sub-delegate.

Section 9.04

Agents Entitled to Act as Lender

.  The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder.  With respect to its participation in the Loans and the Letters of Credit, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity.  Any Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities 






181















of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with the U.S. Borrower or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the U.S. Borrower for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.  The Lenders acknowledge that pursuant to such activities, the Agents or their Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Agents and their Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

Section 9.05

Lenders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment

.  

(a)

Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Group in connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Group.  No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders.

(b)

Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement, an Assignment Agreement or a Joinder Agreement and funding its Tranche A Term Loan, Tranche B Term Loan and/or Revolving Loans on the Closing Date or by the funding of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, Required Lenders or Lenders, as applicable on the Closing Date or as of the date of funding of such Loans.

Section 9.06

Right to Indemnity

.  Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent to the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by any Loan Party (and without limiting its obligation to do so), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in its capacity as Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, that in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against 






182















any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided, further, that this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 9.07

Successor Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Swing Line Lender

.  

(a)

The Administrative Agent shall have the right to resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower Representative.  The Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution to act as the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrower Representative and the Required Lenders, and the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earlier of (i) the acceptance of such successor Administrative Agent by the Borrower Representative and the Required Lenders or (ii) the thirtieth day after such notice of resignation.  Upon any such notice of resignation, if a successor Administrative Agent has not already been appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent, Required Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Borrower Representative, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent.  If neither Required Lenders nor the Administrative Agent have appointed a successor Administrative Agent, then the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided, that until a successor Administrative Agent is so appointed by Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent, by notice to the Borrower Representative and Required Lenders, may retain its role as the Collateral Agent under any Security Document.  Except as provided in the preceding sentence, any resignation of Barclays Bank or its successor as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute the resignation of Barclays Bank or its successor as the Collateral Agent.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9.07 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent hereunder.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Administrative Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held under the Security Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Administrative Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Administrative Agent of the security interests created under the Security Documents, whereupon such retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  If the Administrative Agent is retaining its role as Collateral Agent, the actions enumerated in the preceding sentence will be modified to account for such retained role.  Any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Collateral Agent for all purposes hereunder.  If Barclays Bank or its successor as the 






183















Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section has resigned as the Administrative Agent but retained its role as the Collateral Agent and no successor Collateral Agent has become the Collateral Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, Barclays Bank or its successor may resign as the Collateral Agent upon notice to the Borrower Representative and Required Lenders at any time.  

(b)

In addition to the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and the Loan Parties.  The Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution as the Collateral Agent hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrower Representative and the Required Lenders and the Collateral Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earlier of (i) the acceptance of such successor Collateral Agent by the Borrower Representative and the Required Lenders or (ii) the thirtieth day after such notice of resignation.  Upon any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to appoint a successor Collateral Agent.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, the successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents, and the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder or under the Security Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the Security Documents, whereupon such retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Security Documents.  After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement or the Security Documents while it was the Collateral Agent hereunder.

(c)

Any resignation of Barclays Bank or its successor as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute the resignation of Barclays Bank or its successor as the Swing Line Lender and Issuing Bank, and any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor the Swing Line Lender and an Issuing Bank (in accordance with Section 2.04(h)) for all purposes hereunder.  In such event (i) the U.S. Borrower shall prepay any outstanding Swing Line Loans made by the retiring Administrative Agent in its capacity as Swing Line Lender, (ii) upon such prepayment, the retiring Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender shall surrender any Swing Line Note held by it to the U.S. Borrower for cancellation and (iii) the U.S. Borrower shall issue, if so requested by the successor Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender, a new Swing Line Note to the successor Administrative Agent and the successor Swing Line Lender, in the principal amount of the Swing Line Sublimit then in effect and with other appropriate insertions.

184















(a)

Agents under Security Documents and Guaranty.  Each Secured Party hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of Secured Parties with respect to the Guaranty, the Collateral and the Security Documents which are not German Security Documents; provided, that, except as expressly set forth herein, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Obligations.  Subject to Section 10.05, without further written consent or authorization from any Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable may execute any documents or instruments necessary (i) in connection with a sale or disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement, to release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of such sale or other disposition of assets or to which Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.05) have otherwise consented or (ii) to release any Guarantor from the Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.12 or with respect to which Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.05) have otherwise consented.

(b)

Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty.  Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

(c)

Rights under Hedge Agreements.  No Hedge Agreement shall create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Lender Counterparty that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Guarantor under the Loan Documents except as expressly provided in Sections 2.15(e) and 10.05(c)(v) of this Agreement.  By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, such Lender Counterparty shall be deemed to have appointed the Collateral Agent as its agent and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party, subject to the limitations set forth in this clause (c).

(d)

Release of Collateral and Guarantees, Termination of Loan Documents.  






185















(i)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Obligations have been Paid in Full, this Agreement and all other Loan Documents, all guarantee obligations provided for in any Loan Document and all security interests granted pursuant to any Loan Document shall automatically terminate, and upon request of the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender or any Lender Counterparty) take such actions as shall be reasonably requested to evidence the release of its security interest in all Collateral, and to evidence the release of all guarantee obligations provided for in any Loan Document.  Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation, examinership, receivership or reorganization of any Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor, liquidator, examiner or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.  

(ii)

Upon any disposition of property permitted by this Agreement, any security interest in such property provided for in any Security Document shall be deemed to be automatically released and such property shall automatically revert to the applicable Loan Party with no further action on the part of any Person.  The Collateral Agent shall, at the applicable Loan Party's expense, execute and deliver or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, including financing statement amendments to evidence such release.

Section 9.09

Withholding Taxes

.  To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax.  If any payment has been made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding Tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority, or the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred, provided that nothing in this Section 9.09 shall impose any obligation on any Loan Party. 

Section 9.10

Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim

.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether 






186















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, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (a) 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 and the other Secured Parties (including fees, disbursements and other expenses of counsel) allowed in such judicial proceeding and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same.  Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or other Secured Party any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or other Secured Party to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of such Person or in any such proceeding.

Section 9.11

Administrative Agent’s “Know Your Customer” Requirements

.  Each Lender shall promptly, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, provide such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (for itself) in order for the Administrative Agent to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents.  

Section 9.12

(c)

The Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall:

(i)

hold, administer and, as the case may be, enforce any German Security which is security assigned or otherwise transferred (Sicherungsübereignung/ Sicherungsabtretung) under the laws of Germany under a non-accessory security right (nicht akzessorische Sicherheit) to it as a trustee (Treuhänder) in its own name but for the benefit of the Secured Parties; and






187















(ii)

as applicable, administer and, as the case may be, enforce, any German Security which is pledged under the laws of Germany (Verpfändung) or otherwise transferred in accordance with the laws of Germany to (i) it in its own name but for the benefit of the Secured Parties as well as (ii) any of the Secured Parties under an accessory security right (akzessorische Sicherheit) in the name and for and on behalf of the Secured Parties.

Section 9.13

Certain Canadian Matters

.  For greater certainty, and without limiting the powers of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other person acting as an agent or mandatary for such agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents,  each of the Loan Parties, including each of the Canadian Loan Parties, hereby acknowledges that, for purposes of holding any security granted by any Loan Party on property pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure obligations of any Borrower or any other Loan Party under any bond or debenture issued by any Borrower or any other Loan Party, the Collateral Agent is and shall be the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec) for all present and future Secured Parties, and in particular for all present and future holders of any such bond or debenture.  Each Secured Party, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates that may from time to time be Secured Parties (each, an “Appointer”) hereby: (i) irrevocably constitutes, ratifies and confirms, to the extent necessary, the Collateral Agent as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec) in order to hold hypothecs and security granted by any Borrower or any other Loan Party on property pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure obligations of any Borrower or any other Loan Party under any bond issued by any Borrower or any other Loan Party; and (ii) appoints, ratifies and confirms and agrees that the Collateral Agent may act as the bondholder 






188















or debentureholder and mandatary, custodian and depository with respect to any bond or debenture that may be issued by any Borrower or any Loan Party and pledged in their favour from time to time.  Each assignee of an Appointer on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates that may from time to time be Secured Parties shall be deemed to have confirmed and ratified the constitution of the Collateral Agent as the holder of such irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) and shall be deemed to have confirmed and ratified the constitution of the Collateral Agent as bondholder or debentureholder and mandatary, custodian and depositary with respect to any bond or debenture that may be issued by any Borrower or any Loan Party and pledged from time to time in favour of the Collateral Agent by the execution of an Assignment and Acceptance or by otherwise becoming a party hereto.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 32 of the An Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Quebec), the Collateral Agent may acquire and be the holder of any bond or debenture issued by any Borrower or any other Loan Party (i.e., the fondé de pouvoir may acquire and hold the first bond or debenture issued under any deed of hypothec by any Borrower or any Loan Party).  Each Borrower and each Loan Party hereby acknowledges that such bond or debenture constitutes a title of indebtedness, as such term is used in Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec.  The Collateral Agent, acting as fondé de pouvoir shall have the same rights, powers, immunities and exclusions from liability as are prescribed in favor of the Collateral Agent in this Agreement, which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Collateral Agent acting as fondé de pouvoir.  

Section 9.14

Parallel Debt

. 

(a)

For the purpose of establishing a valid Lien pursuant to any Security Document governed by Dutch or German law: 

(i)

each Foreign Loan Party irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes (and to the extent necessary undertakes in advance (bij voorbaat)) (where applicable, by way of an abstract acknowledgement of debt (abstraktes Schuldanerkenntnis)) to pay to the Collateral Agent amounts equal to any amounts owing from time to time by that Foreign Loan Party to any Foreign Obligations Secured Party under the Loan Documents, any Hedge Agreement, any Cash Management Agreement or any Treasury Transaction (as each may be amended, varied, supplemented or extended from time to time) whether for principal, interest, (including interest which, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to such Foreign Loan Party, would have accrued on any Obligation, whether or not a claim is allowed against such Foreign Loan Party for such interest in the related bankruptcy proceeding), reimbursement of amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, payments for early termination of Hedge Agreements, fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise, as and when those amounts are due (its "Foreign Corresponding Debt"), and each Foreign Obligations Secured Party consents to each Foreign Loan Party’s undertaking pursuant to this paragraph (i); and

(ii)

each Loan Party (other than any Foreign Loan Party) irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes (and to the extent necessary undertakes in advance (bij voorbaat)) (where applicable, by way of an abstract acknowledgement of debt (abstraktes Schuldanerkenntnis)) to pay to the Collateral Agent amounts equal to any amounts owing from time to time by that Loan Party to any Secured Party (other than any Foreign Obligations Secured Party) under the Loan Documents, any Hedge Agreement, any Cash 






189















Management Agreement or any Treasury Transaction (as each may be amended, varied, supplemented or extended from time to time) whether for principal, interest, (including interest which, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to such Loan Party, would have accrued on any Obligation, whether or not a claim is allowed against such Loan Party for such interest in the related bankruptcy proceeding), reimbursement of amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, payments for early termination of Hedge Agreements, fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise, as and when those amounts are due (its "U.S. Corresponding Debt"), and each Secured Party (other than any Foreign Obligations Secured Party) consents to the undertaking of each Loan Party (other than any Foreign Loan Party) pursuant to this paragraph (ii).

(b)

Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that the obligations of each Loan Party under a Parallel Debt are several and are separate and independent (eigen zelfstandige verplichting) from, and shall not in any way limit or affect, the relevant Corresponding Debt under any Loan Document, any Hedge Agreement, any Cash Management Agreement or any Treasury Transaction nor shall the amounts for which each Loan Party is liable under a Parallel Debt be limited or affected in any way by its relevant Corresponding Debt provided that:

(i)

a Parallel Debt of a Loan Party shall be decreased to the extent that its relevant Corresponding Debt has been irrevocably paid or (in the case of guarantee obligations) discharged; 

(ii)

a Corresponding Debt of a Loan Party shall be decreased to the extent its relevant Parallel Debt has been irrevocably paid or (in the case of guarantee obligations) discharged; and

(iii)

the amount of a Parallel Debt of a Loan Party shall at all times be equal to the amount of its relevant Corresponding Debt.

(c)

For the purpose of this Section 9.14, the Collateral Agent acts in its own name and on behalf of itself and not as agent, representative or trustee of any other Secured Party and its claims in respect of a Parallel Debt shall not be held on trust. Any Lien granted to the Collateral Agent to secure a Parallel Debt is granted to the Collateral Agent in its capacity as sole creditor of a Parallel Debt and shall not be held on trust.

(d)

All monies received or recovered by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 9.14, and all amounts received or recovered by the Collateral Agent from or by the enforcement of any Liens granted to secure a Parallel Debt, shall be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e)

Without limiting or affecting the Collateral Agent’s rights against any Loan Party (whether under this Section 9.14 or under any other provision of the Loan Documents), the Collateral Agent agrees with each other Secured Party (on a several and divided basis) that, subject as set out in the next sentence, it will not exercise its rights under any Parallel Debt in relation to a Secured Party except with the consent of the relevant Secured Party. However, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in the previous sentence shall in any way limit the Collateral Agent’s right to act in the protection or preservation of rights under or to enforce any 






190















Security Document as contemplated by this Agreement, the relevant Security Document or any other Loan Document, any Hedge Agreement, any Cash Management Agreement or any Treasury Transaction (or to do any act reasonably incidental to the foregoing).

(f)

Without limiting or affecting the Collateral Agent's rights against a Loan Party (whether under this Section 9.14  or under any other provision of this Agreement), each Loan Party acknowledges that:

(i)

nothing in this Section 9.14 shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent to advance any sum to a Loan Party or otherwise under a Loan Document, except in its capacity as Lender; and

(ii)

for the purpose of any vote taken under a Loan Document, the Collateral Agent shall not be regarded as having any participation or commitment other than those which it has in its capacity as a Lender.

(g)

For the avoidance of doubt, a Parallel Debt will become due and payable (opeisbaar) at the same time the relevant Corresponding Debt becomes due and payable.

(h)

For the purpose of any Security Document governed by Dutch law, each party to this Agreement confirms that, in accordance with this Section 9.14 a claim of the Collateral Agent against a Loan Party in respect of a Parallel Debt does not constitute common property (een gemeenschap) within the meaning of Section 3:166 of the Dutch Civil Code and that the provisions relating to such common property shall not apply. If, however, it shall be held that such claim of the Collateral Agent does constitute such common property and such provisions do apply, the parties to this Agreement agree that this Agreement shall constitute the administration agreement (beheersregeling) within the meaning of Section 3:168 of the Dutch Civil Code.

(i)

For the purpose of any Security Document governed by German law, the Collateral Agent, the Loan Parties and each of the other Secured Parties agree that the Collateral Agent shall be the joint and several creditor (Gesamtgläubiger) (together with the relevant other Secured Party) of each and every obligation of the Loan Parties towards that other Secured Party under any Loan Document, any Hedge Agreement, any Cash Management Agreement or any Treasury Transaction, and that accordingly the Collateral Agent will have its own and independent right to demand performance by the Loan Parties of those obligations (Gesamtgläubigerschaft) in full. 

(j)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 9.14 shall impose any obligation on any Foreign Loan Party to make any payment, or provide any security for, any Obligation of a U.S. Loan Party, or be construed as a guaranty by any Foreign Loan Party of any Obligation of a U.S. Loan Party.

To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.03 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Loan Party shall to the extent permitted by law contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

(e)

Representations and Warranties of Assignee.  Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the Assignment Effective Date that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or  loans such as the applicable Commit­ments or Loans, as the case may be; and (iii) it shall make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitments or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such Commitments or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.06, the disposition of such Commitments or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).

(f)

Effect of Assignment.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.06, as of the “Assignment Effective Date” (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent of its interest in the Loans and Commitments as reflected in the Register and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof, including under Section 10.08) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on the Assignment Effective Date; provided, that anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, (y) the Issuing Bank shall continue to have all rights and obligations thereof with respect to such Letters of Credit until the cancellation or expiration of such Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder and (z) such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect any Commitment of such assignee and any Revolving Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the applicable Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Revolving Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this 






201















Agreement that does not comply the requirements of this Section 10.06 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.06(g).  Any assignment by a Lender pursuant to this Section 10.06 shall not in any way constitute or be deemed to constitute a novation, discharge, rescission, extinguishment or substitution of the Indebtedness hereunder, and any Indebtedness so assigned shall continue to be the same obligation and not a new obligation.

(g)

Participations.

(i)

Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than any Group Member or any of their respective Affiliates) in all or any part of its Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligation: provided, that (A) such Lender’s obligations shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (C) each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and Each of the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s agreements and obligations.

The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (A) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (unless such Letter of Credit is not extended beyond the Revolving Commitment Termination Date) in which such participant is participating or the amortization schedule therefor, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (B) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (C) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors or the Collateral under the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating.

(iii)

Each Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18(c), 2.19 and 2.20 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section; provided, that such participant agrees to be subject to Sections 2.19 and 2.20 as if it were a Lender; provided, further, that (x) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.19 or 2.20 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with the Borrower Representative’s prior written consent and (y) a participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 unless such participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 






202















2.20 as though it were a Lender; provided, further, that, except as specifically set forth in clause (x) of this sentence, nothing herein shall require any notice to the Borrower Representative or any other Person in connection with the sale of any participation.  To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.04 as though it were a Lender; provided, that such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender.  A participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 to the extent such participant fails to comply with Section 2.20(c). 

(iv)

Each Lender that sells a participation shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts of each participant’s interest in the Commitments, Loans and other Obligations held by it (the “Participant Register”).  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 Commitments, Loans and other Obligations as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  Any such Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Agent at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(h)

Certain Other Assignments and Participations.  In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted pursuant to this Section 10.06 any Lender may pledge (without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent) all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that no Lender, as between any Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge; provided, further, that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee, be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

(i)

Act on the Financial Supervision.  In order to comply with the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (Wet op het financieel toezicht), the amount transferred under this Section 10.06 shall include a portion outstanding from the Foreign Borrower of at least € 50,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) or such other amount as may be required from time to time by the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (or implementing legislation) or if less, the new Lender shall confirm in writing to the Loan Parties that it is a professional market party (professionele marktpartij) within the meaning of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act.

Section 10.07

Independence of Covenants, Etc.

.  All covenants, conditions and other terms hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, conditions or other terms, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant, condition or other term shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

Section 10.08

Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements

.  All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension.

Section 10.09

No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative

.  No failure or delay or course of dealing on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege.  The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Loan Documents or any of the Hedge Agreements.  Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of any Credit Extension shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time of the making of any such Credit Extension.

Section 10.10

Marshalling; Payments Set Aside

.  Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or any Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

Section 10.11

Severability

.  In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction).  The parties hereto shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid, 






204















legal and enforceable provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as reasonably possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Section 10.12

Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights

.  The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

Section 10.17

.  Each Agent and each Lender (which term shall for the purposes of this Section 10.17 include the Issuing Bank) shall hold all non-public information regarding the Group and their businesses identified as such by the Borrower Representative and obtained by such Agent or such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Agent’s and such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by the Borrower Representative that, in any event, the Administrative Agent may disclose such information to the 






206















Lenders and each Agent and each Lender may make (i) disclosures of such information to Affiliates or Related Funds of such Lender or Agent and to their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents and advisors (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.17); provided, that, prior to any disclosure, such Affiliates, Related Funds, officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents and advisors and other persons be instructed to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from any Agent or any Lender, (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by (A) any pledgee referred to in Section 10.06(h), (B) any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein, (C) any bona fide or potential direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations or (D) any direct or indirect investor or prospective investor in a Related Fund; provided, that such pledgees, assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties, advisors and investors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.17 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 10.17, (iii) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it; provided, that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency be instructed to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from any Agent or any Lender, (iv) disclosures in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document and (v) disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or by the NAIC or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, that unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and each Agent shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower Representative of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information.  In addition, each Agent and each Lender may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  

Section 10.18

Usury Savings Clause

.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law, shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.  If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect; provided, that in no event shall the amount paid pursuant hereto be in excess of the amount of interest that would have been due if the state rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, 






207















then to the extent permitted by law, such Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and each Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the applicable Borrower. 

Section 10.19

Counterparts

.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

Section 10.20

Effectiveness; Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries

.  This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of written notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof.  With the exception of those terms contained in Sections 3, 5, 8 and 9 of the Commitment Letter, dated March 15, 2010, between the Arrangers, the Bookrunners and the U.S. Borrower (the “Commitment Letter”), which by the terms of the Commitment Letter remain in full force and effect, all of the Arrangers’, the Bookrunners’ and their respective Affiliates’ obligations under the Commitment Letter shall terminate and be superseded by the Loan Documents and the Arrangers, the Bookrunners and their respective Affiliates shall be released from all liability in connection therewith, including any claim for injury or damages, whether consequential, special, direct, indirect, punitive or otherwise.  This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any fee letter entered into in connection with the Commitment Letter represent the entire agreement of the Group, the Agents, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender, the Arrangers, the Bookrunners and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Agent, Issuing Bank, Swing Line Lender, Arranger, Bookrunner or Lender relative to the subject matter hereof or thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.  Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents and Lenders, holders of participations in all or any part of a Lender’s Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligations, and the Indemnitees) any rights, remedies, obligations, claims or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of any Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement.

Section 10.23

Electronic Execution of Assignments

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

Section 10.24

No Fiduciary Duty

.  Each Agent, each Lender, each Arranger, each Bookrunner, each Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of each Borrower, its stockholders and/or its Affiliates.  Each Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other; provided that each Loan Party acknowledges that one or more Affiliates of Barclays Bank, DBSI and BAS (collectively, the “Borrower Financial Advisor”) has been retained by the Borrower as a buy-side financial advisor in connection with the Acquisition.  The Borrowers, on behalf of themselves and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates, agree not to assert any claim that the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates might allege based on any actual or potential conflict of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from, on the one hand, the engagement of the Borrower Financial Advisor and, on the other hand, Barclays Bank’s, DBSI’s or BAS’s or their respective Affiliates’ respective relationships as Agent, 






209















Lender, Arranger, Bookrunner, Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, described herein.  The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Borrower, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person.  Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that such Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto.  Each Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

Section 10.25

Judgment Currency

.  If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment in given.  The obligation of any Borrower in respect of such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent from the applicable Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law). 

Section 10.26

Schedule 1.01(d) - 6












SCHEDULE 1.01(e)


		
	 
	Agreed Security Principles


	The Principles:

	The guarantees and security to be provided in support of the Foreign Tranche A Term Loans, the Foreign Tranche B Term Loans and the Foreign Revolving Commitment will be given in accordance with the agreed security principles set out in this Schedule 1.01(e).


	Potential restrictions on credit support:

	The Agreed Security Principles recognize there may be legal and practical difficulties in obtaining security from the Foreign Borrower and Foreign Guarantors (the “Foreign Obligors”) in every jurisdiction in which Foreign Obligors are incorporated or operate.  In particular:


	 
	(i)

general, statutory limitations, financial assistance, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, thin capitalization rules, retention of title claims and similar principles may limit the ability of a Foreign Obligor to provide a guarantee or, grant security or may require that its guarantee be limited in amount or scope.  The U.S. Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to assist in demonstrating that adequate corporate benefit accrues to the Foreign Borrower and each Foreign Obligor;


	 
	(ii)

the guarantees and collateral (and extent of its perfection) shall exclude such guarantees and collateral as to which the parties shall reasonably determine that the costs of obtaining such guarantees and collateral are excessive in relation to the value of the guarantee and collateral to be afforded thereby); and












Schedule 1.01(e) - 1


















		
	 
	(iii)

Foreign Obligors will not be required to give guarantees or enter into Security Documents if doing so would conflict with the fiduciary duties of their directors or contravene any legal prohibition or result in a material risk of personal or criminal liability on the part of any officer, provided that each Foreign Obligor must use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome any such obstacle, and provided further that if a Foreign Guarantor can give a limited guarantee, it will grant such a limited guarantee.


	Guarantees:

	To the extent legally permitted and subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above, each guarantee and security will be an upstream, cross-stream and downstream guarantee and each guarantee and security will be for all liabilities of the Foreign Obligors under the Loan Documents.


	Security Perfection:

	Perfection of security (when required) and other legal formalities will be completed as soon as practicable and, in any event, within the time periods specified by applicable law or, if earlier, the applicable Loan Document in order to ensure due perfection.  Perfection of security will not be required if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Foreign Obligor to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as permitted by the Loan Documents.  No notice of receivables security may be given to third party debtors until an Event of Default has occurred (and for so long as it is continuing) unless such notice is required to perfect the security.  Notification of any Lien over insurance policies will be given (subject to local law advice) to the relevant insurer without undue delay.   The Collateral Agent may register security interests in Intellectual Property provided such registration does not interfere with the business of the Foreign Subsidiaries.


	Security Enforcement:

	The Security Documents and other Loan Documents will allow the Lenders to enforce their Lien without any restriction from (i) the constitutional documents of the relevant Foreign Obligor, (ii) any company which is or whose assets are the subject of such Security Document (but subject to any inalienable statutory rights which the Borrowers may have to challenge such enforcement) or (iii) any shareholders of the foregoing not party to the relevant Security Document.









Schedule 1.01(e) - 2


















		
	Terms of Security Documents:

	The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any Lien taken as part of this transaction:


	 
	(i)

the Lien will be first ranking, if commercially feasible;


	 
	(ii)

the Lien will not be enforceable until an Event of Default has occurred;


	 
	(iii)

in respect of the share pledges, customary limitations on the exercise of voting rights by the pledgor to protect the validity and enforceability of the Lien over shares shall apply;


	 
	(iv)

until an Event of Default occurs, (i) the pledgor shall retain and exercise voting rights to any shares pledged in a manner that does not adversely affect the validity or enforceability of the Lien or cause an Event of Default to occur, and (ii) prior to an Event of Default, the pledgor will be permitted to receive dividends upstream to the extent permitted under the Loan Documents with the proceeds to be available to the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries;


	 
	(v)

the Lenders shall only be able to exercise a power of attorney following the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing or if the relevant Foreign Obligor has failed to comply with a further assurance or perfection obligation; and


	 
	(vi)

to the extent required for the purpose of granting Liens under the laws of a relevant jurisdiction, the Foreign Obligor shall grant a parallel debt to the Collateral Agent.












Schedule 1.01(e) - 3












SCHEDULE 1.01(f)

Mandatory Costs

1.

The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

2.

On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below.  The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum. 

3.

The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent.  This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender's participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office. 

4.

The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows: 

(a)

in relation to a sterling Loan: 

		
	AB + C(B – D) + E x 0.01

	   per cent. per annum


	100 – (A + C)







(b)

in relation to a Loan in any currency other than sterling: 

		
	E x 0.01

	   per cent. per annum.


	300


	 
	 



Where:

A

is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

B

is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin and the Mandatory Cost and any additional rate of interest specified in Section 2.10) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan. 









Schedule 1.01(f) - 1












C

is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England. 

D

is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits. 

E

is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender for that financial year and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender. 

5.

For the purposes of this Schedule: 

(a)

“Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England; 

(b)

“Facility Office” means:

(i)

in respect of a Lender or Issuing Bank, the office or offices notified 

by that Lender or Issuing Bank to the Administrative Agent in writing on   or before the date it becomes a Lender or Issuing Bank (or, following   that date, by not less than five Business Days’ written notice) as the office   or offices through which it will perform its obligations under the Credit   Agreement; or 

(ii)

in respect of any other Agent or Secured Party, the office in the 

jurisdiction in   which it is resident for tax purposes. 

(c)

“Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the Financial Services Authority Fees Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits; 

(d)

“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and

(e)

“Financial Services Authority” means the Financial Services Authority in the United Kingdom.

(f)

“Mandatory Cost” means the percentage rate per annum calculated by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the formula set forth above.






Schedule 1.01(f) - 2












(g)

“Participating Member State” means any member state of the EMU that adopts or has adopted the euro as its lawful currency in accordance with legislation of the EMU relating to Economic and Monetary Union. 

(h)

“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.  

6.

In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05).  A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero.  The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places. 

7.

Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate.  In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender: 

(a)

the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

(b)

any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for 

    such purpose. 

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph. 

8.

The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraph 7 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office. 

9.

The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3 and 7 above is true and correct in all respects.  

10.

The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3 and 7 above. 

11.

Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to the Credit Agreement. 

12.

The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Borrower Representative and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties any amendments which 






Schedule 1.01(f) - 3












are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to the Credit Agreement.

WHEREAS, Collateral Agent has requested that Landlord execute this Agreement as a condition to the extension of credit to Tenant under the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, Collateral Agent as follows:

1.  Landlord hereby (a) waives and releases unto Collateral Agent and its successors and assigns any and all rights granted by or under any present or future laws to levy or distraint for rent or any other charges which may be due to Landlord against the Collateral, and any and all other claims, liens and demands of every kind which it now has or may hereafter have against the Collateral, and (b) agrees that any rights it may have in or to the Collateral, no matter how arising (to the extent not effectively waived pursuant to clause (a) of this paragraph 1), shall be second and subordinate to the rights of Collateral Agent in respect thereof.
