on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1.00%; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the LIBOR Rate for any day shall be based on the rate determined on the basis of the British
Bankers’ Association Interest Settlement Rate for Dollars for a period equal to such Interest Period commencing on the first day of such Interest Period appearing on the appropriate page of the Reuters screen as of 11:00 a.m. Any change in the
ABR due to a change in the Prime Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate shall be effective as of the opening of business on the effective day of such change in the Prime Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate, respectively. 

“ABR Loan” shall mean each loan bearing interest at the rate provided in Section 2.8(b). 

“Acquired Indebtedness” means Indebtedness (a) of a Person or any of its Subsidiaries existing at the time such

deemed an investment in Additional Assets); 
 (b) the Capital Stock of a Person that is engaged in a
Similar Business and becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of the acquisition of such Capital Stock by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; or 

(c) Capital Stock constituting a minority interest in any Person that at such time is a Restricted Subsidiary of the

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all outstanding principal amounts of the Loans,
including interest payable thereon, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to the appropriate lending office of such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such lending office of such Lender from time to time, including
the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 13.7(b), in which Register shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Borrower of such Loan,
the Type of each Loan made and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum
received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made
in the Register and accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 2.5 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of a Borrower
therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of any Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to such Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 2.6 Conversions and Continuations. (a) The Company shall have the option on any Business Day to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of Loans of one Type into a
Borrowing or Borrowings of another Type and shall have the option on any Business Day to continue the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Loans, as the case may be, for an additional Interest Period, provided that (i) ABR Loans may not be
converted into LIBOR Loans if a Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversion and
(ii) LIBOR Loans denominated in US Dollars may not be continued as LIBOR Loans for an additional Interest Period if an Event of Default is in existence on the date of the proposed continuation and the Administrative Agent has or the Required
Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation. Each such conversion or continuation shall be effected by the Company by giving the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office prior to
10:00 a.m. at least two Business Days’ (or one Business Day’s notice in the case of a conversion into ABR Loans) prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) (each, a “Notice of Conversion or
Continuation”) specifying the Loans to be so converted or continued, the Type of Loans to be converted or continued into and, if such Loans or are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable
thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender notice as promptly as practicable of any such proposed conversion or continuation affecting any of its Loans. 

  
 -55-









 (b) If any Default or Event of Default is in existence at the time of any proposed
continuation of any LIBOR Loans and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation, such LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted on the last day of the
current Interest Period into ABR Loans. If upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of LIBOR Loans, a Borrower has failed to specify a new Interest Period to be applicable thereto as provided in paragraph (a) above, such Borrower
shall be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month, effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period. If a Borrower requests the conversion to, or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan, but fails to specify an Interest
Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. 
 2.7 Pro Rata Borrowings. The borrowing of
Loans under this Agreement and each Borrowing outstanding from time to time hereunder shall be made or maintained, as applicable, by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Commitments (in the case of Loans made on the Funding Date) or the
aggregate outstanding amount of their Loans (in the case of separate Borrowings consisting of different Types or having different Interest Periods). It is understood that (a) no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in
its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder and (b) other than as
expressly provided herein with respect to a Defaulting Lender, failure by a Lender to perform any of its obligations under any of the Credit Documents shall not release any Person from performance of its obligation under any Credit Document.

 2.8 Interest. (a) [Reserved] 
 (b) The unpaid principal amount of each ABR Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that
shall at all times be aggregate of (i) the Applicable ABR Margin plus the ABR in effect from time to time. 
 (c) The
unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be aggregate of (i) the
Applicable LIBOR Margin in effect from time to time, (ii) the relevant LIBOR Rate, and (iii) the Mandatory Cost, if any. 
 (d) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or any interest payable thereon shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount
shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is (x) in the case of overdue principal on any Loan, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto plus 1% or (y) in the case of any overdue interest, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, the rate described in Section 2.8(b) or (c), as applicable, plus 1%, in each case from and including the date of such non-payment to but excluding the date on which such amount is paid in full (after as well as before
judgment). 
 (e) Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date of the borrowing thereof to but excluding the
date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable (i) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in 

  
 -56-









 
excess of three months, on each date occurring at three-month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, and (ii) on any prepayment (on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether
by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand. 
 (f) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made
in accordance with Section 5.4. 
 (g) Each Lender shall supply the Administrative Agent with any information required by
the Administrative Agent in order to calculate the Mandatory Cost in accordance with Schedule 1.1(d). 
 (h) The Administrative
Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing of Loans, shall promptly notify the Company and the relevant Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all
parties hereto. 
 2.9 Interest Periods. At the time the Company gives the Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion
or Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into or continuation as, a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 10:00 a.m. at least two Business Days prior to the expiration
of an Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, the Company shall have the right to elect by giving the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) the Interest Period applicable to a
Borrowing, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Company, be a period commencing on the date of Borrowing specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or on the date specified in the applicable Notice of Conversion or Continuation and
ending one (1), two (2), three (3) or six (6) (or if agreed by all relevant Lenders, nine (9) or twelve (12)) months thereafter, as the Borrower may elect in the applicable notice, provided that the initial Interest Period
may be for a period less than one month if agreed upon by the Company and the Administrative Agent. 
 Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained above: 
 (a) the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans shall commence on the date
of such Borrowing (including the date of any conversion from a Borrowing of ABR Loans) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

 (b) if any Interest Period relating to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month or
begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period;

 (c) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on
the next succeeding Business Day, provided that if any Interest Period in respect of a LIBOR Loan would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month,
such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day; 

  
 -57-









 (d) the Borrower shall not be entitled to elect any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR
Loan if such Interest Period would extend beyond the Maturity Date; and 
 (e) after giving effect to the initial borrowing, all
conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than 25 Interest Periods in effect with respect to LIBOR Loans. 

2.10 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. (a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the
Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties
hereto): 
 (i) on any date for determining the LIBOR Rate for any Interest Period that (x) deposits in the
principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in Dollars in the Relevant Interbank Market for a period equivalent to the relevant Interest Period or (y) by reason of any changes arising on or after the
Funding Date affecting the Relevant Interbank Market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR Rate (as the case may be); or 

(ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur any increase in the cost to such Lender or reductions in the amounts
received or receivable hereunder in connection with making or agreeing to make, funding or maintaining, LIBOR Loans or its Commitment hereunder (other than any such increase or reduction attributable to Taxes) because of (x) any Change in Law,
such as, for example, without limitation, a change in official reserve requirements, and/or (y) other circumstances affecting the Relevant Interbank Market or the position of such Lender in such market; or 

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any LIBOR Loan or its Commitment hereunder has become unlawful by
compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply
therewith would not be unlawful), or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the date hereof that materially and adversely affects the Relevant Interbank Market; 

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall within a reasonable
time thereafter give notice (if by telephone, confirmed in writing) to the Company and to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter
(x) in the case of clause (i) above, LIBOR Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no
longer exist (which notice the Administrative Agent agrees to give at such time when such circumstances no longer exist), and the Notice of Borrowing or any Notice of Conversion or Continuation with respect to LIBOR Loans that have not yet been
incurred, converted or continued (as applicable) shall be deemed rescinded by the Company (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Company shall pay to 

  
 -58-









 
such Lender, promptly after receipt of written demand therefor such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such
Lender in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (it being agreed that a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to
such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Company by such Lender shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (z) in the case
of clause (iii) above, the Borrowers shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by Law. 

(b) At any time that any LIBOR Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrowers may
(and in the case of a LIBOR Loan affected pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(iii) shall) either (i) if the affected LIBOR Loan has been requested pursuant to the Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation but has not been made,
converted or continued (as applicable), cancel said Borrowing, conversion or continuation (as applicable) by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the Company was notified by
a Lender pursuant to 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii); or (ii) if the affected LIBOR Loan is then outstanding (x) upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR
Loans to such day or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans), require the affected Lender to convert each such LIBOR Loan into an ABR Loan if such conversion would overcome the illegality and each Loan so
converted shall, (y) prepay the affected LIBOR Loans on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loan to such date, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully
continue to maintain such LIBOR Loan or cause any affected Lender to assign the affected LIBOR Loans to another Lender or to another bank or institution willing to accept such assignment (which assignment shall be subject to and in compliance with
Section 13.7) to the extent any such affected Lender may lawfully continue to maintain the relevant LIBOR Loans until such time as such assignment becomes effective in accordance with the terms hereof. Upon any such conversion or prepayment,
the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted or prepaid all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion under Section 2.11. The Borrowers shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred
by any Lender in connection with any assignment pursuant to sub-clause (z). If more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated in the same manner pursuant to this Section 2.10(b). 

(c) If, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable Law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any Change in Law,
or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, any central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
compliance by a Lender or its parent with any request or directive made or adopted after the date hereof regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, association, central bank or comparable agency, has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent’s or its Affiliate’s capital or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such
Lender or its parent or its Affiliate could have achieved but for such 

  
 -59-









 
adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its parent’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, promptly after
demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent or its Affiliates for such reduction, it being understood and
agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be entitled to compensation for such reduction except to the extent resulting from the adoption of any applicable Law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any Change in Law, or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, any central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, after the date hereof. Each
Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Company which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of the
calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not, subject to Section 2.13, release or diminish the Borrowers’ obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) upon
receipt of such notice. 
 (d) It is understood that this Section 2.10 shall not apply to Excluded Taxes or to any amounts
that would be payable under Section 5.3 but for another provision of Section 5.3 or, to the extent duplicative of Section 5.3, this Section 2.10 shall not apply to Taxes. 

2.11 Compensation. If (a) any payment of principal of any LIBOR Loan is made by a Borrower to or for the account of a Lender,
or is converted or continued, other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan as a result of a payment or conversion pursuant to Section 2.5, 2.10, 5.1 or 13.8, as a result of acceleration of the maturity of the Loans
pursuant to Section 11 or for any other reason, (b) any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans is not made as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Borrowing or as a result of the operation of any of the provisions of this Agreement, (c) any ABR Loan
is not converted into a LIBOR Loan as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or Continuation or as a result of the operation of any of the provisions of this Agreement, (d) any LIBOR Loan is not continued as a LIBOR Loan (as the case may
be), as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or Continuation or as a result of the operation of any of the provisions of this Agreement, (e) any prepayment of principal of any LIBOR Loan is not made as a result of a withdrawn notice of
prepayment pursuant to Section 5.1 or as a result of the operation of any of the provisions of this Agreement, (f) any assignment of a LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan as a result of a
request by the Company pursuant to Section 13.8(a), the Borrowers shall, after receipt of a written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that such Lender may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, failure to convert, failure to continue or failure to
prepay, including any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits) actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such LIBOR Loan. 

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 2.11, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each
LIBOR Loan made by it by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the Relevant Interbank Market in Dollars for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Loan was in fact so funded. 

  
 -60-









 2.12 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any
event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii), 2.10(a)(iii), 2.10(b), or 5.3 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Company use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such
Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its branches or Affiliates, provided that such designation or assignment is made on such terms
that would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii), 2.10(a)(iii), 2.10(b) or 5.3, as the case may be, and that, in such Lender’s judgment, cause such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic (including
becoming subject to any unreimbursed cost or expense), legal or regulatory disadvantage. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of any Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Section 2.10 or
5.3. 
 2.13 Notice of Certain Costs. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any
notice required by Section 2.10, 2.11 or 5.3 is given by any Lender more than 180 days after such Lender has knowledge (or should have had knowledge) of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss,
tax or other additional amounts described in such Sections, such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation under Section 2.10, 2.11 or 5.3, as the case may be, for any such amounts incurred or accruing prior to the 181st day prior to the
giving of such notice to the Borrower. 
 SECTION 3. [Reserved] 

SECTION 4. Fees; Commitments 
 4.1 Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees and expenses in respect of the performance of such role as may be separately agreed from time to time. 

4.2 Voluntary Reduction of Commitments. Upon at least three Business Days prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Company (on behalf of each of the Borrowers) shall have the right
at any time prior to the Signing Date and the making of the Loans hereunder, without premium or penalty, permanently to terminate or reduce the Commitments in whole or in part, provided that (a) any such reduction shall apply
proportionately and permanently to reduce the Commitment of each of the Lenders and (b) any partial reduction pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof. 
 4.3 Mandatory Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Total Commitment shall terminate upon the earlier
of (i) the funding thereof on the Funding Date and (ii) 5:00p.m. (London time) on the last day of the Availability Period. 

  
 -61-









 SECTION 5. Payments 

5.1 Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrowers shall have the right to prepay Loans, without premium or penalty (except as provided
below), in whole or in part from time to time on or after the second anniversary of the Signing Date on the following terms and conditions: (a) the Company shall give the Administrative Agent and at the Administrative Agent’s Office
written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of its intent to make such prepayment, the amount of such prepayment and (in the case of LIBOR Loans) the specific Borrowing(s) to be prepaid, which notice shall be given by the
Company no later than 10:00 a.m. two Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment and shall promptly be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to each of the Lenders; (b) each partial prepayment of any LIBOR Loans shall be in an integral
multiple of $1,000,000 and in an aggregate principal amount of at least $5,000,000 and each partial prepayment of ABR Loans shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 or, in each case,
if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding, and any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 5.1 on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto shall be subject to compliance by the Borrowers
with the applicable provisions of Section 2.11. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall be (a) applied to such Loans as the Company may specify and (b) applied to reduce such Loan Repayment Amounts as the Company may
specify. At the Company’s election in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.1, such prepayment shall not be applied to any Loan of a Defaulting Lender. 

In the event that, a Borrower makes any voluntary prepayment of Loans on or after the Second Anniversary of the Signing Date (pursuant to
Section 5.1), the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each Lender, a prepayment premium as follows: 
 (i) in the event that such a prepayment is made on or after the second anniversary of the Signing Date but prior to the third anniversary of the Signing Date, 2% of the amount of the Loans being prepaid;
and 
 (ii) in the event that such a prepayment is made on or after the third anniversary of the Signing Date but
prior to the fourth anniversary of the Signing Date, 1% of the amount of the Loans being prepaid. 
 5.2 Method and Place of
Payment. (a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made by each Borrower, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of
the Lenders entitled thereto, not later than 12:00 Noon on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office or at such other office as the Administrative Agent shall specify for such
purpose by notice to the Company, it being understood that written or facsimile notice by a Borrower to the Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in such Borrower’s account at the Administrative Agent’s Office shall
constitute the making of such payment to the extent of such funds held in such account. All repayments or prepayments of Loans (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) hereunder shall be made in Dollars. The Administrative Agent will thereafter
cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 noon on such day) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or Fees ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto.


  
 -62-









 (b) Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 1:00 p.m. shall be deemed to
have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, such
extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees (as the case may be) at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension. 
 5.3 Net Payments. (a) Any and all payments made by or on behalf of any Credit Party under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or
withholding for or on account of, any Indemnified Taxes; provided that if a Credit Party shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so
that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.3), the Administrative Agent, any Collateral Agent or any Lender, as the case may be,
receives an amount equal to the after tax sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the relevant Credit Party shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the relevant Credit Party shall pay
the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. Whenever any Indemnified Taxes are payable by a Credit Party, as promptly as possible thereafter, such Credit Party shall send to the
Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt in such form as provided in the ordinary course by the relevant Governmental Authority and as is
reasonably available to the relevant Credit Party (or other evidence acceptable to such Lender, acting reasonably) received by such Credit Party showing payment thereof. 
 (b) Each Credit Party shall pay and shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless, on an after tax basis, the Administrative Agent, each Collateral Agent and each Lender (whether or not such
Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority) with regard to any Other Taxes. 
 (c) Each Credit Party shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless, on an after tax basis, the Administrative Agent, each Collateral Agent and each Lender within 15 Business Days after written
demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent, each Collateral Agent or such Lender as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party
hereunder or under any other Credit Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.3) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not
such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Upon the request of the Company, such Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, or a Lender must provide details of how it calculated the
amount of Indemnified Taxes for which it claimed liability under this Section 5.3. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Credit Party by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent or a Collateral Agent on its
own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 -63-









 (d) Each Lender shall to the extent it is legally entitled to do so: 

(i) upon the request of the Company or the Administrative Agent deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent two
copies of any certification, information, documents or other evidence concerning the nationality, residence or identity of such Lender or make any declaration of similar claim or satisfy any other reporting requirement relating to such matters,
which is required by a statute, regulation or administrative practice of a relevant Governmental Authority as a precondition to exemption from all or a part of any Taxes, assessment or other governmental charge; and 

(ii) deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent two further copies of any such form or certification (or any
applicable successor form) on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to any Borrower; 

unless in any such case any Change in Law has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required that renders any such
form inapplicable or would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. Each Person that shall become a Participant pursuant to
Section 13.7 or a Lender pursuant to Section 13.7 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all the forms and statements required pursuant to this Section 5.3(d), provided that in the case of
a Participant such Participant shall furnish all such required forms and statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased. 
 (e) If a Credit Party determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder or any other Credit Document, the relevant
Lender, the Administrative Agent or a Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall cooperate with such Credit Party in challenging such taxes at such Credit Party’s expense if so requested by such Credit Party. If any Lender, the Administrative Agent
or a Collateral Agent, as applicable, receives a refund of, or determines that a Tax Credit is available to it with respect to, a tax for which a payment has been made by a Credit Party pursuant to this Agreement, which refund or Tax Credit in the
good faith judgment of such Lender, the Administrative Agent or a Collateral Agent, as the case may be, is attributable to such payment made by such Credit Party, then the Lender, the Administrative Agent or a Collateral Agent, as the case may be,
shall reimburse such Credit Party for such amount (together with any interest received thereon) as the Lender, the Administrative Agent or a Collateral Agent, as the case may be, determines to be the proportion of the refund or Tax Credit as will
leave it, after such reimbursement, in no better or worse position (taking into account expenses or any taxes imposed on the refund) than it would have been in if the payment had not been required. A Lender, the Administrative Agent or a Collateral
Agent shall claim any refund or Tax Credit that it determines is available to it, unless it concludes in its reasonable discretion that it would be adversely affected by making such a claim. Neither the Lender, the Administrative Agent nor any
Collateral Agent shall be obliged to disclose any information regarding its tax affairs or computations to the any Credit Party in connection with this paragraph (e) or any other provision of this Section 5.3. 

  
 -64-









 (f) The agreements in this Section 5.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement
and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 5.4 Computations of Interest and Fees. Interest
on LIBOR Loans and, except as provided in the next succeeding sentence, ABR Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed. Interest on ABR Loans in respect of which the rate of interest is calculated on the
basis of the Prime Rate and interest on overdue interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. 
 5.5 Limit on Rate of Interest. 
 (a) No Payment shall exceed Lawful
Rate. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be obliged to pay any interest or other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement in excess of the amount or rate permitted under or consistent with any
applicable law, rule or regulation. 
 (b) Payment at Highest Lawful Rate. If a Borrower is not obliged to make a payment
which it would otherwise be required to make, as a result of Section 5.5(a), such Borrower shall make such payment to the maximum extent permitted by or consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. 

(c) Adjustment if any Payment exceeds Lawful Rate. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents would
obligate any Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by any applicable Law, rule or regulation, then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or
rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to, in the case of LIBOR Loans the beginning of the relevant Interest Period or, in the case of ABR Loans, the relevant date, the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may
be, as would not be so prohibited by Law, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by such Borrower to the affected Lender under Section 2.8. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received from any Borrower an
amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any applicable Law, rule or regulation, then such Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent to obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount equal to such excess,
and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by that Lender to such Borrower. 
 5.6
Currency Indemnity 
 (a) If any sum due from a Credit Party under the Credit Documents (a “Sum”), or
any order, judgment or award given or made in relation to a Sum, has to be converted from the currency (the “First Currency”) in which that Sum is payable into another currency (the “Second Currency”) for the
purpose of: (i) making or filing a claim or proof against that Credit Party; (ii) obtaining or enforcing an order, judgment or award in relation to any litigation or arbitration proceedings, in either case that Credit Party shall as an
independent obligation, within 

  
 -65-









 
three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Lender to whom that Sum is due against any cost, loss or liability arising out of or as a result of the conversion including any discrepancy between
(A) the rate of exchange used to convert that Sum from the First Currency into the Second Currency and (B) the rate or rates of exchange available to that person at the time of its receipt of that Sum. 

(b) Each Credit Party waives any right it may have in any jurisdiction to pay any amount under the Credit Documents in a currency or
currency unit other than that in which it is expressed to be payable.

Default and for one such time the reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with such visit and inspection shall be for the Company’s account; provided further that when an Event Of Default exists the Administrative Agent or
any Lender (or any of their respective representatives or independent contractors) may do any of the foregoing at the reasonable expense of the Company at any time during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice.

 -76-









 
agree in writing in its sole discretion). If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates a Wholly Owned Subsidiary (other than an Immaterial Subsidiary) after the

provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of foreign or state law. 
 (c) The obligations of a
Guarantor under the Guaranty will terminate upon: 
 (i) a sale or other disposition (including by way of

 9.12 Additional Liens and Security Interests. (a) Subject to the Agreed Security Principles, within 60 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in writing in its sole
discretion) after (i) any Restricted Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor in accordance with Section 9.11 who as at the Signing Date has not granted security pursuant to the Security Documents or (ii) any Credit Party acquires any material
property that is not automatically subject to a perfected security interest under the Security Documents, the relevant Credit Party shall, in each case at its sole cost and expense, duly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such
mortgages, deeds of trust, mortgage amendment, deed of trust amendments, security agreement supplements and other security documents, as reasonably specified by and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (in form
and scope, and covering such collateral on such terms, in each case consistent with the mortgages, security agreements and other security documents in effect on the Signing Date), granting a security interest in favor of the Secured Parties, and
take such additional actions (including the giving of notices, the filing of statements and the provision of all instruments and documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent) to perfect and protect the security interests of the Secured
Parties under the Security Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Credit Party shall be required to provide a security interest pursuant to this Section 9.12 (x)

opinions of counsel to the Company as customarily given by borrower’s counsel in the relevant jurisdiction (or title company endorsements), in form and substance customary for such jurisdiction. The Company will use reasonable endeavors to
procure that its counsel or title company, as the case may be, in any relevant jurisdiction provides a legal opinion in respect of any such security interest. 
 (b) The obligations of a Credit Party under the Security Documents to which it is a party will terminate upon: 
 (i) such Credit Party ceasing to be a Guarantor in accordance with Section 9.11(c);

 (iii) payment and performance in full of the Secured Obligations and the cancellation of Commitments hereunder.

Document. 
 9.14 Insurance Endorsements. Within 10 Business Days (or 30 days in the case of the Guarantor organized

(ii) takes any steps necessary for the Secured Obligations to benefit from the security documents that secure the Senior Secured Notes (if not already received) and the end of each calendar year, the relevant Collateral Agent shall have
received endorsements naming the relevant Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, as an additional insured or loss payee, as the case may be, under all material insurance policies to be renewed following the Funding Date or entered into prior to

10.1(b)(xi) or 10.1(b)(xiii) in excess of an aggregate of €25,000,000, then the Company shall, or shall cause the relevant Restricted Subsidiary to, provide that the obligations of the Borrowers under the Credit Documents are secured equally

provided that, to the extent any of the Additional Secured Accounts are or become part of the bank accounts used in the cash management system of the Company, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall each be entitled to grant a Lien over
the Additional Secured Accounts in favor of the bank providing cash management facilities to secure the Company’s obligations to such bank, which Lien shall rank equally and ratably with the Lien created in favor of the Global Collateral Agent.

Stock or the reclassification of commitments or obligations not treated as Indebtedness due to a change in GAAP, will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 10.1. 

  
 -86-









 (e) The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be (i) the accreted
value thereof in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount and (ii) the principal amount, or liquidation preference thereof, in the case of any other Indebtedness. 

(f) If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be
Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 10.1 the Company shall be in Default of this covenant). 

(g) For purposes of determining compliance with any euro-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the Euro Equivalent
of the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in another currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or, at the option of the
Company, first committed, in the case of Indebtedness Incurred under a revolving credit facility; provided that (i) if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than euros, and such
refinancing would cause the applicable euro-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such euro-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been
exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced; (ii) the Euro Equivalent of the principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the
Original Closing Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Original Closing Date, except to the extent the amount of such Indebtedness is incurred under a revolving credit facility; and (iii) if and
for so long as any such Indebtedness is subject to a Currency Agreement with respect to the currency in which such Indebtedness is denominated covering principal and interest on such Indebtedness, the amount of such Indebtedness, if denominated in
euros, will be the amount of the principal payment required to be made under such Currency Agreement and, otherwise, the Euro Equivalent of such amount plus the Euro Equivalent of any premium which is at such time due and payable but is not covered
by such Currency Agreement. 
 (h) Notwithstanding any other provision of this covenant, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that
the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary may Incur pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to
refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that
is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 
 (i) If the Company adopts the US Dollars as its reporting currency, it may
elect irrevocably to convert all Euro-denominated restrictions into US Dollar-denominated restrictions at the applicable Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of such election, and all references in this Agreement to determining Euro Equivalents and
Euro amounts shall apply mutatis mutandis as though referring to US Dollars.

or other modification relates (as determined in good faith by the Company); 
 (iv) any encumbrance or
restriction:

than (A) the encumbrances and restrictions contained in this Agreement, together with the Security Documents associated therewith as in effect on the Signing Date or (B) in comparable financings (as determined in good faith by the Company)
and where, in the case of paragraph (B), the Company determines at the time of issuance of such Indebtedness that such encumbrances or restrictions will not adversely affect, in any material respect, the Borrowers’ ability to make principal or

date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition), as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Disposition (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if such Asset
Disposition is a Permitted Asset Swap);

otherwise, other than Indebtedness) received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents or Temporary Cash Investments; and

 (iii) an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be:

as the case may be, elects (or is required by the terms of any Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary), (1) to prepay, repay or purchase any Indebtedness of a non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary (in each case, other than Indebtedness owed to
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary) or Indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Agreement or the Super Priority Notes within 365 days from the later of (x) the date of such Asset Disposition and (y) the receipt of such Net Available
Cash; provided, however, that such prepayment shall only be required after the Company and the Co-Borrower have complied with Section 10.5(b)(ii) and in connection with any prepayment, repayment or purchase of Indebtedness
pursuant to this paragraph (A), the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related commitment (if any) (except in the case of the Revolving Credit Agreement) to be permanently reduced in an amount
equal to the principal amount so prepaid, repaid or purchased; or (2) to prepay, repay or purchase Pari Passu Indebtedness at a price of no more than 100% of the principal amount of such Pari Passu Indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest
to the date of such prepayment, repayment or purchase; provided that the Company shall redeem, repay or repurchase Pari Passu Indebtedness pursuant to this sub-paragraph (A) only if the Company makes (at such time or subsequently in
compliance with this Section 10.5) an offer to Lenders to purchase Loans in accordance with the provisions set forth below for an Asset Disposition Offer for an aggregate principal amount of Loans at least equal to the proportion that
(x) the total aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding bears to (y) the sum of the total aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding plus the total aggregate principal amount outstanding of such Pari Passu Indebtedness; or

Additional Assets (including by means of an investment in Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary with Net Available Cash received by the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) within 365 days from the later of (1) the date of such
Asset Disposition and (2) the receipt of such Net Available Cash; provided, however, that any such reinvestment in Additional Assets made pursuant to a definitive binding agreement or a commitment approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company that is executed or approved within such time will satisfy this requirement, so long as such investment is consummated within 180 days of such 365th day; provided that to the extent that any disposition in such Asset
Sale was of Collateral, the assets (including Voting Stock) acquired with the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall, subject to the Agreed Security Principles, be pledged as Collateral under the Security Documents substantially simultaneously with such
acquisition; 

  
 -98-









 provided that, pending the final application of any such Net Available Cash in
accordance with paragraph (A) or paragraph (B) above, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce Indebtedness or otherwise invest such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Agreement. 

(b) (i) Any Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions that is not applied or invested or committed to be applied or invested as
provided in clause (a) above will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” On the 366th day after an Asset Disposition, if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds €50,000,000, the Borrowers will, subject to
sub-clause (i) below, be required to make an offer (“Asset Disposition Offer”) to all Lenders and, to the extent the Company elects, to all holders of other outstanding Pari Passu Indebtedness, to purchase the maximum principal
amount of Loans and any such Pari Passu Indebtedness to which the Asset Disposition Offer applies that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in respect of the Loans in an amount equal to (and, in the case of any Pari Passu
Indebtedness, an offer price of no more than) 100% of the principal amount of the Loans and 100% of the principal amount of Pari Passu Indebtedness, in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase,
in accordance with the procedures set forth herein or the agreements governing the Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable. 
 (ii) The Borrowers shall only be required to make an Asset Disposition Offer to Lenders and apply any Excess Proceeds to purchase Loans after the Company and the Co-Borrower have, at the election of the
Company and the Co-Borrower, prepaid, repaid or repurchased Indebtedness under the Note Indentures in respect of the Senior Notes, and, in each case, then only to the extent of the Excess Proceeds available after the Company and the Co-Borrower have
complied with such obligations or made such prepayment, repayment or repurchase (as the case may be). 
 (c) To the extent that
the aggregate amount of Loans and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate
purposes, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. If the aggregate principal amount of the Loans surrendered in any Asset Disposition Offer by Lenders and other Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by holders or lenders, collectively,
exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Excess Proceeds shall be allocated among the Loans and Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of tendered Loans and Pari Passu
Indebtedness. For the purposes of calculating the principal amount of any such Indebtedness not denominated in Euro, such Indebtedness shall be calculated by converting any such principal amounts into their Euro Equivalent determined as of a date
selected by the Company that is within the Asset Disposition Offer Period (as defined in clause (e) below). Upon completion of any Asset Disposition Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 

(d) To the extent that any portion of Net Available Cash payable in respect of the Loans is denominated in a currency other than Dollars,
the amount thereof payable in respect of such Loans shall not exceed the net amount of funds in Dollars that is actually received by the Company upon converting such portion into Dollars. 

  
 -99-









 (e) The Asset Disposition Offer will remain open for a period of not less than 20 Business
Days following its commencement (the “Asset Disposition Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Disposition Offer Period (the “Asset Disposition Purchase Date”), the
Borrowers will purchase the principal amount of Loans and, to the extent they elect, Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be purchased pursuant to this covenant (the “Asset Disposition Offer Amount”) or, if less than the Asset
Disposition Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all Loans and Pari Passu Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Asset Disposition Offer. 
 (f) On or before the Asset Disposition Purchase Date, the Borrowers will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Asset Disposition Offer Amount of Loans
and Pari Passu Indebtedness or portions of Loans and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Asset Disposition Offer, or if less than the Asset Disposition Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not
properly withdrawn, all Loans and Pari Passu Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn. The Company will deliver to the Administrative Agent an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Loans or portions thereof were accepted
for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.5. The Borrowers will promptly (but in any case not later than five Business Days after termination of the Asset Disposition Offer Period) pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each tendering Lender an amount equal to the purchase price of the Loans so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by such Lender, and accepted by the Borrowers for purchase. 

(g) For the purposes of clause (a)(ii) above, the following will be deemed to be cash: 

(i) the assumption by the transferee of Indebtedness of the Company or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than
Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or a Guarantor) and the release of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition; 

(ii) securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company from the
transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Disposition; 

(iii) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset
Disposition, to the extent that the Company and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any Guarantee of payment of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition; 

(iv) consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Company (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) received after the
Signing Date from Persons who are not the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; and 
 (v) any Designated
Non-Cash Consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Dispositions having an aggregate fair market value, 

  
 -100-









 
taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this Section 10.5, or designated as such pursuant to the corresponding provision of the Secured Indenture
prior to the Signing Date but on or after the Original Closing Date that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of €100,000,000 and 1% of Total Assets (with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration
being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value). 
 10.6 Limitation on
Affiliate Transactions. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the
rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Company (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate value in excess of €20,000,000 unless: 

(i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction taken as a whole are not materially less favorable to the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction or the execution of the agreement providing for such transaction in arm’s-length dealings with a Person who
is not such an Affiliate; and 
 (ii) in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate value in
excess of €50,000,000, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary (as applicable). 

(b) Any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in clause (a)(ii) above if such Affiliate
Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors. If there are no Disinterested Directors, any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in this Section 10.6 if the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Administrative Agent a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or
stating that the terms are not materially less favorable to the Company or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person
on an arm’s length basis. 
 (c) The provisions of clause (b) above will not apply to: 

(i) any Restricted Payment permitted to be made pursuant to Section 10.2, any Permitted Payments (other than pursuant
to Section 10.2(c)(ix)(B)) or any Permitted Investment (other than Permitted Investments as defined in clauses (a)(ii), (b), (k) and (o) of the definition thereof); 

(ii) any issuance or sale of Capital Stock, options, other equity-related interests or other securities, or other
payments, awards or grants in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, or entering into, or maintenance of, any employment, consulting, collective bargaining or benefit plan, program, agreement or

arrangement, related trust or other similar agreement and other compensation arrangements, options, warrants or other rights to purchase Capital Stock of the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or
any Parent, restricted stock plans, long-term incentive plans, stock appreciation rights plans, participation plans or similar employee benefits or consultants’ plans (including valuation, health, insurance, deferred compensation, severance,

 (iii) any Management Advances and any waiver or transaction with respect thereto; 

(iv) any transaction between or among the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary (or entity that becomes a Restricted

 (v) the payment of
reasonable fees and reimbursement of expenses to, and customary indemnities (including under customary insurance policies) and employee benefit and pension expenses provided on behalf of, directors, officers, consultants or employees of the Company,
any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or any Parent (whether directly or indirectly and including through any Person owned or controlled by any of such directors, officers or employees); 

(vi) the Transactions and the entry into and performance of obligations of the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries under the terms of any transaction arising out of, and any payments pursuant to or for purposes of funding, any agreement or instrument in effect as of or on the Original Closing Date, as these agreements and instruments may be amended,
modified, supplemented, extended, renewed or refinanced from time to time in accordance with the other terms of this Section 10.6 or to the extent not more disadvantageous to the Lenders in any material respect and the entry into and
performance of any registration rights or other listing agreement in connection with any Public Offering; 

(vii) execution, delivery and performance of any Tax Sharing Agreement or the formation and maintenance of any
consolidated group for tax, accounting or cash pooling or management purposes in the ordinary course of business; 
 (viii) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business, which are fair to the Company or the relevant
Restricted Subsidiary in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors or the senior management of the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary, or are on terms no less favorable than those that could reasonably have been obtained at
such time from an unaffiliated party; 
 (ix) any transaction in the ordinary course of business between or among
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Affiliate of the Company or an Associate 

  
 -102-

of any Permitted Holder owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Affiliate, Associate or similar entity; 
 (x) (A) issuances or sales of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock or Designated Preference Shares) of the Company or options, warrants or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock or

(xi) without duplication in respect of payments made pursuant to sub-clause (xii) below, (C) payments by the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to any Permitted Holder (whether directly or indirectly, including through any Parent) of annual customary management, consulting, monitoring or advisory fees and related expenses customary for portfolio

provided that it may be a co-obligor with respect to any Indebtedness issued by the Company or a Guarantor, and may engage in any activities directly related thereto or necessary in connection therewith. The Co-Borrower shall be a
Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Company at all times. 
 10.8 [Reserved] 

10.9 Merger and Consolidation by the Company. (a) The Company will not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey,
transfer or lease all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, unless: 
 (i) the resulting, surviving or
transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) will be a Person organized and existing under the laws of any member state of the European Union on January 1, 2004, or the United States of America, any State of the United States or
the District of Columbia, Canada or any province of Canada, Norway or 

  
 -103-









 
Switzerland and the Successor Company (if not the Company) will expressly assume, by supplemental agreements, executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent, in form reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent, all the obligations of the Company under the Credit Documents; 
 (ii) immediately
after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any Subsidiary of the Successor Company as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or
such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 
 (iii) immediately after giving effect, on a pro forma basis, to such transaction, either (A) the Fixed Coverage Ratio of the Successor Company would exceed 2.00 to 1.00 or (B) the
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would not be lower than it was immediately prior to giving effect to such transaction; and 
 (iv) the Company shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each to the effect that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such
supplemental agreement (if any) comply with this Agreement and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such supplemental agreement (if any) has been duly authorized, executed and delivered and is a legal, valid and binding agreement enforceable
against the Successor Company (in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), provided that in giving an Opinion of Counsel, counsel may rely on an Officer’s Certificate as to any matters of fact,
including as to satisfaction of sub-clauses (ii) and (iii) above. 
 (b) Any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation
of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (or that is deemed to be Incurred by any Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) as a result of any such transaction undertaken in compliance with this covenant, and any Refinancing
Indebtedness with respect thereto, shall be deemed to have been Incurred in compliance with Section 10.1. 
 (c) For
purposes of this covenant, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company, which properties and assets, if held by the
Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the
Company. 
 (d) The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the
Company under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents but in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, the predecessor company will not be released from its obligations under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents.

 (e) Notwithstanding clauses (a)(ii) and (a)(iii) above (which do not apply to transactions referred to in this clause 10.9(e)
and, other than with respect to clause (c) above and clause (a)(iv) above, (i) any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company may consolidate or otherwise 

  
 -104-









 
combine with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to the Company and (ii) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate or otherwise combine with, merge into or
transfer all or part of its properties and assets to any other Restricted Subsidiary. Notwithstanding clause (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) above (which does not apply to the transactions referred to in this clause 10.9(e), the Company may consolidate or
otherwise combine with or merge into an Affiliate incorporated or organized for the purpose of changing the legal domicile of the Company, reincorporating the Company in another jurisdiction, or changing the legal form of the Company. 

(f) This Section 10.9 (other than the requirements of clause (a)(ii) above) shall not apply to the creation of a new subsidiary as a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company. 
 10.10 Merger and Consolidations by the Co-Borrower and Guarantors. (a) The
Co-Borrower may not consolidate with, merge with or into any person or permit any person to merge with or into the Co-Borrower unless: 
 (i) concurrently therewith, a Subsidiary of the Company that is a limited liability company or corporation organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of
Columbia (which may be the Co-Borrower or the continuing person as a result of such transaction) expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Co-Borrower under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents; or 

(ii) after giving effect to the transaction, at least one obligor on the Senior Notes is a limited liability company or
corporation organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of Columbia. 
 (b)
Upon the consummation of any transaction effected in accordance with this Section 10.10, the resulting, surviving or transferee Co-Borrower will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Co-Borrower
under each Credit Document with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Co-Borrower under such Credit Documents. Upon such substitution, the Co-Borrower will be released from its obligations under each Credit Document.

 (c) No Guarantor may (i) consolidate with or merge with or into any Person, or (ii) sell, convey, transfer or
dispose of, all or substantially all its assets as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, to any Person, or (iii) permit any Person to merge with or into the Guarantor, unless, in
any such case: 
 (A) the other Person is the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that is Guarantor or becomes a
Guarantor concurrently with the transaction; or 
 (B) (1) either (x) a Guarantor is the continuing
Person or (y) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Guarantor under the Credit Documents to which such Guarantor is a party; and 

(2) immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default has occurred and is continuing; or 

  
 -105-









 (C) the transaction constitutes a sale or other disposition (including by
way of consolidation or merger) of the Guarantor or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (in each case other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) otherwise permitted by this Agreement.

 10.11 Impairment of Liens. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, take or omit to
take any action that would have the result of materially impairing the Lien with respect to the Collateral (it being understood that the Incurrence of Permitted Collateral Liens shall under no circumstances be deemed to materially impair the Lien
with respect to the Collateral) for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, grant to any Person other than a Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, any
interest whatsoever in any of the Collateral, except that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur Permitted Collateral Liens and the Collateral may be discharged and released in accordance with the Credit Documents. 

10.12 Suspension of Covenants on Achievement of Investment Grade Status. If on any date following the Signing Date, the Loans have
achieved Investment Grade Status and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (a “Suspension Event”), then, beginning on that day and continuing until such time, if any, at which the Loans cease to have
Investment Grade Status (the “Reversion Date”), the following provisions will not apply: Section 10.1, Section 10.2, Section 10.4, Section 10.5, Section 10.6 and Section 10.9(a)(iii) and, in each case,
any related default provision will cease to be effective and will not be applicable to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Such covenants and any related default provisions will again apply according to their terms from the first day on
which a Suspension Event ceases to be in effect. Such covenants will not, however, be of any effect with regard to actions of the Company properly taken during the continuance of the Suspension Event, and Section 10.2 will be interpreted as if
it has been in effect since the Signing Date except that no default will be deemed to have occurred solely by reason of a Restricted Payment made while that covenant was suspended. On the Reversion Date, all Indebtedness Incurred during the
continuance of the Suspension Event will be classified, at the Company’s option, as having been Incurred pursuant to Section 10.1(a) or one of the clauses set forth in the second paragraph of such covenant (to the extent such Indebtedness
would be permitted to be Incurred thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to Indebtedness Incurred prior to the Suspension Event and outstanding on the Reversion Date). To the extent such Indebtedness would not be so permitted to
be incurred under Section 10.1 such Indebtedness will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Original Closing Date, so that it is classified as permitted under Section 10.1(b)(iv). 

In addition, so long as each Rating Agency confirms that the Investment Grade Status for the Loans has taken into account such release,
all Liens securing Secured Obligations hereunder will be released upon achievement of Investment Grade Status. All such Liens shall, subject to the Agreed Security Principles, be reinstated upon the Reversion Date. 

  
 -106-

mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company, the Co-Borrower or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is
Guaranteed by the Company, the Co-Borrower any of their Restricted Subsidiaries) other than Indebtedness owed to the Company, the Co-Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date
hereof, which default: 
 (i) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such
Indebtedness, immediately upon the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness; or 
 (ii)
results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its maturity; 
 and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness,
together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a payment default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates €100 million or more; 

(f) [Reserved] 

(g) Insolvency. Any Credit Party or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries institutes or consents to the institution of any proceeding

(h) Breach of Representations. Any representation or warranty made or deemed made by any Credit Party (or any of its officers)
under or in connection with any Credit Document shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made; 

  
 -107-









 (i) Security Documents. (i) Any Lien under the Security Document on any material
Collateral shall, at any time, cease to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of the relevant Security Document and this Agreement) for any reason other than the satisfaction in full of all of the Secured Obligations
or the release of any such Lien in accordance with the terms hereof or (ii) any Security Document or any Lien created thereunder on any material Collateral shall be declared invalid or unenforceable or a Borrower shall assert in writing that
any such Lien is invalid or unenforceable, and, in any such case, such event or circumstance continues for 10 days. 
 (j)
Judgments. Failure by any Credit Party or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Borrowers and their Restricted Subsidiaries),
would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of €100,000,000 (exclusive of any amounts that a solvent insurance company has acknowledged liability for), which judgments are not paid, discharged or
stayed for a period of 60 days after the judgment becomes final; or

force and effect, other than in accordance the terms of the Credit Documents and the Agreed Security Principles, or a Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under the Guaranty, other than in accordance with the terms thereof or upon release
of the Guaranty in accordance with the Credit Documents; then, and in any such event, and at any time thereafter, if any Event of Default shall then be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, upon the written request of the Required Lenders, by
written notice to the Borrowers, take any or all of the following actions, without prejudice to the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to enforce its claims against the Borrowers, except as otherwise specifically provided for in this
Agreement: (i) declare the Total Commitment terminated, whereupon the Commitments of each Lender shall forthwith terminate immediately and any Fees theretofore accrued shall forthwith become due and payable without any other notice of any kind;
and (ii) declare the principal of and any accrued interest and fees in respect of all Loans, and all other amounts owing hereunder or under any other Credit Document to be, whereupon the same shall become, forthwith due and payable without
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers; provided that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under Section 11.1(g) the Total Commitment and Commitment of each Lender shall
automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

Provisions. No Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with
this Agreement or any other Credit Document (except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties
made by the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the
Administrative Agent or any Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Security Documents, or
for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for any failure of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Credit Party to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. No Agent shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the
properties, books or records of any Credit Party. 
 12.4 Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and
to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Credit Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. Each Agent may deem and
treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.
Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so
requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or such greater number or percentage of Lenders as may be expressly required by this
Agreement in any instance), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 

  
 -110-









 12.5 Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless it has received notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably
directed by the Required Lenders, provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action,
with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders (except to the extent that this Agreement requires that such action be taken only with the approval of the Required Lenders or each of
the Lenders, as applicable). 
 12.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that no
Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a
Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon such Agent or any
other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of each Borrower, any
Guarantor and any other Credit Party and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such
investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of any Borrower, any Guarantor and any other Credit Party. Except for notices, reports and other
documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, assets, operations,
properties, financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Credit Party that may come into the possession of such Agent any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact
or Affiliate. 
 12.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent, each in its capacity as such (to the
extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party and without limiting the obligation of any Credit Party to do so), ratably according to their respective portions of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding on the date on which
indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is sought (x) before the Loans shall have been made, each Lender’s share of the Total Commitment or (y) after the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their
respective portions of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding immediately prior to the repayment thereof), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses
or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the 

  
 -111-









 
payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any
documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing, provided that no Lender shall be
liable for the payment of 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, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; it being acknowledged and agreed that no action taken in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
required by the Credit Documents) shall constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 12.7 shall survive termination of the Commitment, the repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 12.8 Agents in their Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and
generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower, any Guarantor, and any other Credit Party as though it were not an Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, each Agent shall have the same
rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual
capacity. 
 12.9 Successor Agents. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 20 days’ prior
written notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor
Administrative Agent which successor agent shall be approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) so long as no Default or Event of Default is continuing. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the
Administrative Agent by the date which is twenty (20) days following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the
Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent
hereunder by a successor (or upon the Lenders assuming such role as provided above) and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Security Documents, and
such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, as the Required Lenders may request, in order to (1) continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Security Documents or (2) otherwise
ensure that the requirements set forth in Section 9.11 are satisfied, the Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such
successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former
Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 12 shall inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. 

  
 -112-









 12.10 Withholding Tax and Deductions. To the extent required by any applicable Law,
the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction 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, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent
of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already
been reimbursed by a Credit Party and without limiting the obligation of any Credit Party to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with
all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses. 
 12.11
Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party,
the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any
Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, 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 Secured 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 Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the
Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 4.1 and 13.6) 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; 
 and any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent
to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 4.1 and 13.6. 
 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 any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Secured Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the
Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 

  
 -113-









 12.12 Joint and Several Claims. Each of the Agents and Lenders hereby agree that as
regards any Collateral located in or related to the Republic of China, the Taiwan Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be a creditor jointly and severally with each of them with respect to the rights and claims against the Credit Parties hereunder
and under any of the other Credit Documents pursuant to Article 283 of the Republic of China Civil Code and that the Taiwan Collateral Agent shall be entitled to exercise and pursue all such rights and claims against the Credit Parties in its
capacity as a joint and several creditor and for the joint and several benefit of the Agents and the Lenders. Each of the Agents and Lenders hereby further agree that as regards any Collateral located in or related to Japan, the Global Collateral
Agent shall be deemed to be a creditor jointly and severally with each of them with respect to the rights and claims against the Credit Parties hereunder and under any of the other Credit Documents and that the Global Collateral Agent shall be
entitled to exercise and pursue all such rights and claims against the Credit Parties in its capacity as a joint and several creditor and for the joint and several benefit of the Agents and Lenders. 

SECTION 13. Miscellaneous. 
 13.1 Professional Market Party Representations (a) For the purpose of this Section 13.1, each Lender includes the domestic or foreign branch office or Affiliate making a Loan. 

(b) Without limiting the Borrower’s obligations under the FMSA, each Lender which is a party to this Agreement on the date hereof
represents and warrants to each party to this Agreement on the date hereof that it is a PMP. 
 (c) If, on the date on which a
party becomes a Lender, it is a requirement of Dutch law that such party be a PMP, each such new Lender represents and warrants to each party to this Agreement on the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement as a Lender that it is a PMP.

 (d) Each Lender acknowledges that (b) it is aware of the consequences of the representation and warranty made by it
under this Section 13.1 and (c) each of the Agents and other Lenders and the Company has relied upon such representation and warranty. 
 13.2 Amendments and Waivers. (a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived except in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 13.2. The Required Lenders may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, from time to time (i) enter into with the relevant Credit Party or Credit Parties
written amendments, supplements, modifications or waivers hereto and to the other Credit Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the
Credit Parties hereunder or thereunder or (ii) waive in writing, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or


  
 -114-









 
the other Credit Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver
shall directly (A) forgive or reduce or waive any portion of any Loan or extend the final scheduled maturity date of any Loan (it being understood that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the
Borrowers to pay interest at the “default rate”), or forgive any portion, or extend the date for the payment, of any interest or fee payable hereunder (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in
interest rates), or extend the final expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment, or increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments of any Lender, or amend or modify any provisions of Section 5.2(a) (with respect to the ratable allocation
of any payments only) and 13.11(a), in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (B) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 13.2 or reduce the percentages specified in the
definitions of the terms “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent
hereunder, or consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower of its rights and obligations under any Credit Document to which it is a party (except as permitted pursuant to Sections 10.9 or 10.10), (in any such case) without the written
consent of each Lender, (C) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 12 without the written consent of each Agent, (D) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors under the Guaranty (except as expressly permitted by the

supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the affected Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the affected Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrowers, the
Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, it being
understood that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may, without notice or consent of the Required
Lenders, amend or supplement this Agreement to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect, error or inconsistency in this Agreement; 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment,
waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Commitments or Loans held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be
excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders).

 13.4 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on
the part of the Administrative Agent, a Collateral Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right,
remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any
rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 
 13.5 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All
representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Credit Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making

agree (a) to pay or reimburse the Agents for all their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred after the Signing Date in connection with any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents
and any other documents prepared in connection therewith including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of the Administrative Agent’s counsel, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and Agent for all its reasonable and
documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any such other documents, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of

liability under, any Environmental Law or to any actual or alleged presence, release or threatened release of Hazardous Materials involving or attributable to the operations of any Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries (all the foregoing in this clause
(d), collectively, the “indemnified liabilities”), provided that the Company and the Co-Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to the Administrative Agent or any Lender nor any of their respective Related Parties with
respect to indemnified liabilities to the extent attributable to (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified or any of its Related Parties, as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction, or (ii) disputes among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and/or their transferees. All amounts payable under this Section 13.6 shall be paid within ten Business Days of receipt by the Company or the Co-Borrower
(as the case may be) of an invoice relating thereto setting forth such expense in reasonable detail. In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective
whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, any Guarantors, any equityholders or creditors or an indemnified party or any other person or entity, whether or not an indemnified party is otherwise a party
thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The agreements in this Section 13.6 shall survive resignation of any Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Total Commitments and repayment
of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 13.7 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.
(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower or without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its
rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 13.7. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 13.7) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph
(b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of
(i) the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be 

  
 -117-









 
unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for (x) an assignment of any Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender or
(y) any Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Agent or an Affiliate of an Agent or an Approved Fund; (ii) prior to and including the Funding Date, the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed),
provided that (except in the case of an assignment by the Taiwan Collateral Agent) no consent of the Company shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Agent or an Affiliate of an Agent (unless increased
costs would result therefrom except if an Event of Default under Section 11.1(a), (b) or, with respect to any Credit Party, (g) has occurred and is continuing), an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under Section 11.1(a),
(b) or, with respect to any Credit Party, (g) has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; provided that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to
the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof; and (iii) after the Funding Date, the Company in the case of an assignment by the Taiwan Collateral Agent; provided that the Company shall be deemed to
have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof. 

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Agent or an Affiliate of an Agent or an
Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment
and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000, unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed), provided that contemporaneous assignments to a single assignee made by Affiliates of Lenders and related Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting the minimum assignment amount requirements stated above;

 (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 
 (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute
and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation
fee, and provided further that only one such fee shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments to or from two or more Approved Funds; and 

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire
in a form approved by the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Questionnaire”). 

  
 -118-









 For the purpose of this Section 13.7(b), the term “Approved
Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is (or will at the time of the relevant assignment be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and
that is managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that manages a Lender. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section 13.7, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the
interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement,
such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11, 5.3 and 13.6). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
Section 13.7 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 paragraph (c) of this Section 13.7. 

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers shall maintain at the Administrative
Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to
the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Further, the Register shall contain the name and address of the Administrative Agent and the lending office through which each such Person acts under this Agreement. The entries
in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the
assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 13.7 and any written consent to such
assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 13.7, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. Promptly following any change to the Register,
the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Company an updated version thereof. 
 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the
consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement


  
 -119-









 
(including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it), provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection
with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) at any time it is a requirement of Dutch law on the date participations are sold to a Participant, such Participant is a PMP. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to
which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document,
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 13.2 that affects such
Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 13.7, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 5.3 to the same extent as if it were a Lender (subject to the requirements
of those Sections) and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 13.7. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.11(b) as though it
were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 13.7(a) as though it were a Lender. 
 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.10 or 5.3 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 Company’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in
all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 13.7 shall not apply to any such pledge or
assignment of a security interest, provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In order
to facilitate such pledge or assignment, each Borrower hereby agrees that, upon request of any Lender at any time and from time to time after such Borrower has made its initial borrowing hereunder, such Borrower shall provide to such Lender, at such
Borrower’s own expense, a promissory note, substantially in the form of Exhibit D, as the case may be, evidencing the Loans owing to such Lender; provided that any such promissory note shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York and
the Borrowers shall not be required to pay for any notarization of any such promissory note. 
 (e) Subject to
Section 13.19, each Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant, secured creditor of such Lender or assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s
possession concerning the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates that has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or which has been
delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement.


  
 -120-









 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) any Lender may, at
any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Loans or Commitments to the Company and/or any Subsidiary and (y) the Company and/or any Subsidiary may, from time to time, purchase or
prepay Loans, in each case, on a non-pro rata basis. 
 13.8 Replacements of Lenders under Certain Circumstances.
(a) A Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (i) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10, or 5.3; (ii) is affected in the manner described in Section 2.10(a)(iii) and as a result
thereof any of the actions described in such Section is required to be taken; or (iii) becomes a Defaulting Lender with (in any such case) a replacement bank or other financial institution, provided that (1) such replacement does
not conflict with any Law, (2) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (3) such Borrower shall repay (or the replacement bank or institution shall purchase, at par) all Loans and other
amounts (other than any disputed amounts), pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11, or 5.3, as the case may be) owing to such replaced Lender prior to the date of replacement, (4) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a Lender, and
the terms and conditions of such replacement, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (5) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.7
(provided that the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein) and (6) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that such Borrower, the Administrative Agent or
any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. 
 (b) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting
Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 13.2 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders
shall have granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default then exists, the Company shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender
to assign its Loans, and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided that: (i) all Secured Obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced
shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, and (ii) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrowers, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 13.7. 

13.9 [Reserved] 

13.10 Assignment to SPCs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting
Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Company (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of
any 

  
 -121-









 
Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) such SPC makes the representations and warranties applicable to Lenders set
forth in Section 13.1 (ii) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (iii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender
shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the cost or expenses or otherwise increase or
change the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 2.10, 2.11, or 5.3, (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender
would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Credit Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by
an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but
without prior consent of any Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of €3,500 assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and
(ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC;
provided that the information disclosed shall be limited to the extent necessary to satisfy the requirements of any such rating agency, commercial paper dealer, provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement and shall
not include (without the prior written consent of the Company) non-public projections, forecasts or any other forward looking information provided by, or relating to, the Company. 

13.11 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) If any Lender (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment
of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 11.1(g), or otherwise), in
a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating
interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment
or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefited Lender, such purchase shall be
rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 
 (b) After the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to any Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by
each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by a Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and
all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or 

  
 -122-









 
claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any of its Affiliates or any branch or
agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of such Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give
such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
 13.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 13.13 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agents or any Lender relative to
subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Credit Documents.

Agent’s address and (ii) at the relevant Credit Party’s address specified pursuant to Section 13.3, and each Credit Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf that

 -124-









 
Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s attorneys, professional advisors or independent auditors or Affiliates, (c) to any other party to this Agreement, (d) to any pledgee

 SCHEDULE 1.1(a) 

AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES 
  

	1.	Agreed Security Principles 

  

	1.1	The Guarantees and Liens to be provided by the Credit Parties will be given in accordance with certain agreed security principles (the “Agreed Security
Principles”). This Schedule 1.1(a) identifies the Agreed Security Principles and addresses the manner in which the Agreed Security Principles will impact on or be determinant of the Guarantees and Liens to be taken in relation to this
Agreement. 

  

	1.2	All Guarantees, Liens and security shall be provided in accordance with the Guarantees, Liens and security provided under or in connection with the Senior Secured Notes
(including on substantially the same terms thereof and subject to the Agreed Security Principles). 

  

	1.3	The Agreed Security Principles embody a recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal, commercial and practical difficulties in obtaining effective
security from the Company and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries in every jurisdiction in which the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are located. In particular: 


 

	 	(a)	general statutory limitations, financial assistance, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, “thin capitalization” rules, retention of title claims and
similar matters may limit the ability of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to provide a Guarantee or Liens or may require that it be limited as to amount or otherwise, and if so the same shall be limited accordingly, provided
that the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary shall use reasonable endeavors to overcome such obstacle. The Company will use reasonable endeavors to assist in demonstrating that adequate corporate benefit accrues to each of the Restricted
Subsidiary; 

  

	 	(b)	the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be required to give Guarantees or enter into Security Documents if (or to the extent) it is not within the legal
capacity of the Company or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary or if the same would conflict with the fiduciary duties of their directors or contravene any legal prohibition or regulatory condition or result in, or could reasonably be expected to
result in, a material risk of personal or criminal liability for any officer or director of the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, provided that the Company and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall use reasonable endeavors to
overcome any such obstacle; 









	 	(c)	a key factor in determining whether or not security shall be taken is the applicable cost (including adverse effects on interest deductibility, registration taxes and
notarial costs) which shall not be disproportionate to the benefit to the Lenders of obtaining such security; 

  

	 	(d)	where there is material incremental cost involved in creating security over all assets owned by any of the Borrowers or a Guarantor in a particular category (e.g. real
estate), regard shall be had to the principle stated at paragraph 1.2(c) of this Schedule 1.1(a) which shall apply to the immaterial assets and, subject to the Agreed Security Principles, only the material assets in that category (e.g. real estate
of material economic value) shall be subject to security; 

  

	 	(e)	it is expressly acknowledged that it may be either impossible or impractical to create security over certain categories of assets in which event security will not be
taken over such assets; 

  

	 	(f)	any assets subject to contracts, leases, licenses or other arrangements with a third party that exist concurrently (but which are not created in contemplation of the
Transactions) or are not prohibited by this Agreement and which (subject to override by the UCC and other relevant provisions of applicable law), effectively prevent those assets from being charged will be excluded from any relevant Security
Document; provided that reasonable endeavors to obtain consent to creating Liens in any such assets shall be used by the Company and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to avoid or overcome such restrictions if the Administrative Agent
reasonably determines that the relevant asset is material (which endeavors shall not include the payment of any consent fees), but unless effectively prohibited by contracts, leases, licenses or other arrangements with a third party that exist
concurrently (but which are not created in contemplation of the Transactions) or are not prohibited by this Agreement, this shall not prevent security being given over any receipt or recovery under such contract, lease or license;


  

	 	(g)	the giving of a Guarantee, the granting of security or the perfection of the security granted will not be required if it would have a material adverse effect (as
reasonably determined in good faith by management of the relevant obligor) on the ability of the relevant obligor to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted by this Agreement; 


 

	 	(h)	 in the case of accounts receivable, a material adverse effect on the Company’s , the Co-Borrower’s or a Guarantor’s relationship with or
sales to the customer generating such receivables or material legal or commercial difficulties (as reasonably determined by management of 










	 	
the relevant obligor in good faith) provided that none of the Borrowers and the Guarantors may utilize this exception unless, after giving effect thereto no less than a majority of the
book value of the accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (as measured at the end of each fiscal quarter) is subject to perfected liens, and provided further that any accounts receivable of the
Borrowers and the Guarantors excluded from collateral by virtue of this clause (except where prohibited by law and subject to the remainder of these Agreed Security Principles) shall be subject to perfected Liens promptly if and when the corporate
credit of the Company is downgraded to “B” or lower from S&P and “B2” or lower from Moody’s; 

  

	 	(i)	security will be limited so that the aggregate of notarial costs and all registration and like taxes relating to the provision of security shall not exceed an amount to
be agreed. Any additional costs may be paid by the Lenders at their option; and 

  

	 	(k)	all security shall be given in favor of a single security trustee or collateral agent and not the secured parties individually. “Parallel debt” provisions and
other similar structural options will be used where necessary and such provisions will be contained in the intercreditor agreement and not the individual security documents unless required under local law. No action will be required to be taken in
relation to the guarantees or security when any lender assigns or transfers any of its participation in this Agreement to a new lender. 

  

	2.	Terms of Security Documents 

 The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any Security Document to be executed and delivered as part of the Transactions: 

 

	 	(a)	the terms of each Security Document shall be in substantially the same form as such corresponding security document was provided under or in connection with the Senior
Secured Notes; 

  

	 	(b)	subject to permitted liens and these Agreed Security Principles the security will be first ranking and the 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 in the Credit Documents or, if earlier or to the extent no such time period is specified in the Credit Documents, within the time periods
specified by applicable law in order to ensure due perfection; 

  

	 	(c)	the security will not be enforceable until an Event of Default has occurred and notice of acceleration of the Loans has been given by the applicable Administrative
Agent or the Loans have otherwise become due and payable prior to the scheduled maturity thereof (an “Enforcement Event”); 









	 	(d)	prior to the Maturity Date, notification of any Liens over bank accounts will be given (subject to legal advice) to the banks with whom the accounts are maintained only
if an Enforcement Event has occurred; 

  

	 	(e)	notification of receivables security to debtors who are not members of the Company or its Subsidiaries will only be given if an Enforcement Event has occurred;


  

	 	(f)	notification of any security interest over insurance policies will be served on any insurer of the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiaries’ assets (other
than in respect of any insurance policy maintained by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries which is due to expire on or before December 31, 2011); 


 

	 	(g)	the Security Documents should only operate to create security rather than to impose new commercial obligations. Accordingly, they should not contain material additional
representations, undertakings or indemnities (such as in respect of insurance, information or the payment of costs) unless these are the same as or consistent with those contained in this Agreement or are necessary for the creation or perfection of
the security; 

  

	 	(h)	in respect of the share pledges and pledges of intra-group receivables, until an Enforcement Event has occurred, the pledgors will be permitted to retain and to
exercise voting rights to any shares pledged by them in a manner which does not materially adversely affect the value of the security (taken as a whole) or the validity or enforceability of the security or cause an Event of Default to occur, and the
pledgors will be permitted to receive dividends on pledged shares and payment of intra-group receivables and retain the proceeds and/or make the proceeds available to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the extent not prohibited under this
Agreement; 

  

	 	(i)	Secured Parties will only be able to exercise a power of attorney in any Security Document following the occurrence of an Enforcement Event or with respect to
perfection or further assurance obligations that following request, the relevant obligor has failed to satisfy; 

  

	 	(j)	 no obligor shall be required to provide surveys on real property (unless such surveys already exist in which case there shall be no requirement that
such surveys be certified to the Lenders) or to remove any encumbrances on title (not created in contemplation of the Transactions) that are reflected in any title insurance or any other











	 	
existing encumbrances on real property (not created in contemplation of the Transactions) (not including Liens securing Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries);


  

	 	(k)	no obligor shall be required to protect any Liens in the United States prior to the occurrence of an Enforcement Event by means other than customary filings (including
UCC-1s, mortgage or deed of trust filings and patent and trademark filings) and delivery of share certificates (accompanied by powers of attorney executed in blank) and any intercompany promissory notes; and 


 

	 	(l)	information, such as lists of assets, will be provided if, and only to the extent, required by local law to be provided to protect or create, perfect or register the
security and, to the extent so required will be provided annually (unless required to be provided by local law more frequently, but not more frequently than quarterly) and following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
on the applicable Administrative Agent’s reasonable request.

 SCHEDULE 1.1(d) 

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) + Ex0.01
	  	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 LIBOR Margin and the Mandatory Cost and any additional rate of interest charged on overdue amounts pursuant
to Section 2.8 payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan. 









	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 most recent rates
of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000. 

  

	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, in respect of any Lender, the jurisdiction of the office out of which such Lender is making available its participation in the
relevant Loan; 

  

	 	(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)	“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.	If requested by the Administrative Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the
Administrative Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that
Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank. 









	8.	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.

  

	9.	The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the
Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 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. 


 

	10.	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 or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects. 


 

	11.	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 and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above. 

  

	12.	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 hereto. 

  

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