after the Term Loan A Maturity Date or (iii) with respect to a U.S. Tranche B Term Loan or Euro
Tranche B Term Loan would end after the Term Loan B Maturity Date.



          SECTION 2.03. Requests for Revolving Borrowings. To request a Revolving Borrowing,
the applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall notify the
Administrative Agent of such request in accordance with the procedures for Revolving Borrowings set
forth on Schedule 1.01B. Each Borrowing Request following the Effective Date shall be
irrevocable and, in the case of a telephonic Borrowing Request, shall be confirmed promptly by hand
delivery or telecopy or transmission by electronic communication in accordance with Section 9.01(b)
to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form attached hereto as
Exhibit G-1 and signed by the applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the
applicable Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the
following information in compliance with Section 2.02:




     (i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;




     (ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;




     (iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;




     (iv) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Agreed Currency and initial Interest
Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of
the term “Interest Period”; and




     (v) the location and number of the applicable Borrower’s account to which funds are to
be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.07.


If no election as to the Type of Revolving Borrowing is specified, then, in the case of a Borrowing
denominated in Dollars to any Borrower, the requested Revolving Borrowing shall be an ABR
Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Revolving
Borrowing, then the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount
of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.




          SECTION 2.04. Determination of Dollar Amounts. The Administrative Agent will
determine the Dollar Amount of (a) each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing as of the date three (3)
Business Days prior to the date of such Borrowing or, if applicable, the date of




-47-









 







conversion/continuation of any Borrowing as a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, (b) the LC Exposure
as of the date of each request for the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of
Credit and (c) each of (i) the total Revolving Credit Exposures and (ii) the sum of the total
outstanding Revolving Loans denominated in Foreign Currencies and the Foreign Currency LC Exposure,
on and as of the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and, during the continuation of an
Event of Default, on any other Business Day elected by the Administrative Agent in its discretion
or upon instruction by the Required Revolving Lenders. Each day upon or as of which the
Administrative Agent determines Dollar Amounts as described in the preceding clauses (a), (b) and
(c) is herein described as a “Computation Date” with respect to each Credit Event for which a
Dollar Amount is determined on or as of such day.



          SECTION 2.05. Swingline Loans.



          (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make
Swingline Loans in Dollars to the Company from time to time during the Availability Period, in an
aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding the Swingline Loan Sublimit or (ii) the
Dollar Amount of the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the total Revolving Commitments;
provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to
refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Company may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.



          (b) To request a Swingline Loan, the Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of such
request in accordance with the procedures for Swingline Loans set forth on Schedule 1.01B.
The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any notice of a request for a
Swingline Loan Borrowing received from the Company. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline
Loan available to the Company by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Company
with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a
Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section
2.06(e), by remittance to the relevant Issuing Bank) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
requested date of such Swingline Loan.



          (c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later
than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire
participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such
notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will
participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice
thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of
such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees,
upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of
the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each
Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline
Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or
termination of



-48-









 







the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset,
abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its
obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner
as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall
apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent
shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving
Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company of any participations in any Swingline
Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan
shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by
the Swingline Lender from the Company (or other party on behalf of the Company) in respect of a
Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations
therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the
Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving
Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender,
as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid
to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such
payment is required to be refunded to the Company for any reason. The purchase of participations
in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Company of any default in the
payment thereof.



          SECTION 2.06. Letters of Credit.



          (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company may
request the issuance of Letters of Credit denominated in Agreed Currencies for its own account
(provided that any Letter of Credit may be provided on behalf of any Subsidiary of the
Company), in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing
Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. In the event of
any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and
conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Company
to, or entered into by the Company with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the
terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control; provided, however, if the
relevant Issuing Bank is requested to issue Letters of Credit with respect to a jurisdiction the
relevant Issuing Bank deems, in its reasonable judgment, may at any time subject it to a New Money
Credit Event or a Country Risk Event, the Company shall, at the request of such Issuing Bank,
guaranty and indemnify such Issuing Bank against any and all liabilities, losses and reasonable
out-of-pocket costs resulting from such New Money Credit Event or Country Risk Event, other than
any costs, liabilities or losses resulting from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Issuing Bank, in each case in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
such Issuing Bank.



          (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request
the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter
of Credit), the Company shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if
arrangements for doing so have been approved by the relevant Issuing Bank) to the relevant Issuing
Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension) a notice in the form



-49-









 







attached hereto as Exhibit G-4
requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended,
renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which
shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply
with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the Agreed Currency
applicable thereto, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as
shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. The relevant Issuing
Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of, and the Administrative Agent shall in turn
promptly furnish to the Lenders notice of, any such issuance. If requested by the relevant Issuing
Bank, the Company also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard
form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit; provided that such letter of
credit application shall not contain terms inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and shall
not impose any additional obligations, liabilities or Liens on any Loan Party during the term of
this Agreement. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Company shall be deemed to
represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
(i) the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure shall not exceed the LC Exposure Sublimit and (ii) subject
to Section 2.04, the Dollar Amount of the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the
total Revolving Commitments.



          (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall, unless otherwise agreed by the
relevant Issuing Bank, expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date
one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or
extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) unless cash collateralized in
an amount equal to 102% of the LC Exposure in respect of such Letters of Credit at least five (5)
Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the date that is five (5) Business Days
prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. It being understood that any Letter of Credit
issued with an expiration date beyond the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date shall, to the extent of any undrawn amount remaining thereunder on the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date, cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding under this Agreement for
purposes of the Revolving Lenders’ obligations to participate in Letters of Credit pursuant to
clause (d) below.



          (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a
Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the
relevant Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving
Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such
Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate Dollar Amount from
time to time available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in
furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and
unconditionally agrees to
pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank, such Revolving
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed
by the Company on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any
reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Company for any reason. Each Revolving Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in
respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and



-50-









 







unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or
the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and
that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction
whatsoever.



          (e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a
Letter of Credit, the Company shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative
Agent in Dollars the Dollar Amount equal to such LC Disbursement, calculated as of the date the
relevant Issuing Bank made such LC Disbursement (or if such Issuing Bank shall so elect in its sole
discretion by notice to the Company, in such other Agreed Currency which was paid by such Issuing
Bank pursuant to such LC Disbursement in an amount equal to such LC Disbursement) not later than
3:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Company shall have
received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on such date, or, if such
notice has not been received by the Company prior to such time on such date, then not later than
3:00 p.m., Local Time, on (i) the Business Day that the Company receives such notice, if such
notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day
immediately following the day that the Company receives such notice, if such notice is not received
prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that unless the Company elects
otherwise, the Company shall be deemed, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, to
have requested in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR
Revolving Borrowing or, if such amount is less than $1,000,000, Swingline Loan in an equivalent
amount of such LC Disbursement and, to the extent so financed, the Company’s obligation to make
such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline
Loan. If the Company fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify
each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Company in
respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.
Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Company, in the
same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and
Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders),
and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the relevant Issuing Bank the amounts so
received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent
of any payment from the Company pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall
distribute such payment to the relevant Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have
made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and
such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant
to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC
Disbursement (other than the funding of
ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and
shall not relieve the Company of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. If the
Company’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Foreign Currency would
subject the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem
charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be
made in Dollars, the Company shall, at its option, either (x) pay the amount of any such tax
requested by the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Bank or the relevant Lender or (y)
reimburse each LC




-51-











 




Disbursement made in such Foreign Currency in Dollars, in an amount equal to the Equivalent
Amount, calculated using the applicable exchange rates, on the date such LC Disbursement is made,
of such LC Disbursement.




          (f) Obligations Absolute. The Company’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as
provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and
shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all
circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any
Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other
document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any
respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the
relevant Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document
that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or
circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the
provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of
setoff against, the Company’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the
Revolving Lenders nor the Issuing Banks, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability
or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of
Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the
circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or
delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to
any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in
interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the
relevant Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the
relevant Issuing Bank from liability to the Company to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed
to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Company to the extent
permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Company that are caused by the relevant Issuing Bank’s
failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a
Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the
absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the relevant Issuing
Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be
deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and
without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents
presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of
Credit, the relevant Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon
such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such
documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.




          (g) Disbursement Procedures. The relevant Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its
receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter
of Credit. The relevant Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the
Company by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or transmission by electronic communication in
accordance with Section 9.01(b)) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made
or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that




-52-









 







any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Company of its
obligation to reimburse the relevant Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any
such LC Disbursement (other than with respect to the timing of such reimbursement obligation set
forth in clause (e) of this Section).




          (h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless
the Company shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made,
the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC
Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Company reimburses such LC Disbursement, at
the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans (or in the case such LC Disbursement is
denominated in a Foreign Currency, at the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate for such Agreed Currency
plus the then effective Applicable Rate with respect to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans);
provided that, if the Company fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this
paragraph shall be for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on
and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to
reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.




          (i) Replacement or Addition of Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any
time by written agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent and the successor Issuing
Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of an
Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Company shall pay all
unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From
and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all
the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of
Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be
deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all
previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank
hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the
rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit
issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of
Credit. A Lender may become an additional Issuing Bank hereunder at any time by written agreement
among the Company, the Administrative Agent and such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify
the Revolving Lenders of any such additional Issuing Bank.




          (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on
the Business Day that the Company receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required
Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure
representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral
pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent,
in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in
cash equal to the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid
interest thereon; provided that (i) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn
Foreign Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in a




-53-









 







Foreign Currency that the Company is not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the
applicable Foreign Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC
Disbursements and (ii) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective
immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other
notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Company
described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VII. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Dollar
Amount of the Foreign Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated on the date notice demanding cash
collateralization is delivered to the Company. The Company also shall deposit cash collateral
pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(a)(iii). Such deposit
shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the
obligations of the Company under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive
dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than
any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the
Company’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on
such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the
Administrative Agent to reimburse the relevant Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has
not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the
reimbursement obligations of the Company for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of
the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure
representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of
the Company under the Loan Documents. If the Company is required to provide an amount of cash
collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default or pursuant to
Section 2.11(a), such amount plus any accrued interest or realized profits with respect to such
amounts (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Company within three (3)
Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived or such collateral is no longer
required pursuant to 2.11(a), as applicable.




          (k) Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any
date pursuant to Article VII, all amounts (i) that the Company is at the time or thereafter becomes
required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements
made under any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect of which the
Company has deposited cash collateral pursuant to paragraph (j) above, if such cash collateral was
deposited in the applicable Foreign Currency to the extent so deposited or applied), (ii) that the
Lenders are at the time or thereafter become required to pay to the Administrative Agent and the
Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the relevant
Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements
made under any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit and (iii) of each Revolving Lender’s participation
in any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall,
automatically and with no further action required, be converted into its Dollar Amount on such date
(or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is
made). On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent,
the relevant Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender in respect of the obligations described in this
paragraph shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder.




-54-









 








          SECTION 2.07. Funding of Borrowings.




          (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof
by wire transfer of immediately available funds (i) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars by
2:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated
by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage and (ii) in the case of each Loan denominated in a Foreign Currency, by 2:00 p.m., Local
Time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency and
at such Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency; provided that Swingline Loans shall
be made as provided in Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to
the relevant Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to (x) an
account designated by the relevant Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, in the case of
Loans denominated in Dollars and (y) an account of such Borrower in the relevant jurisdiction and
designated by the applicable Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, in the case of Loans
denominated in a Foreign Currency; provided that (x) ABR Revolving Loans made to finance
the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the
Administrative Agent to the relevant Issuing Bank and (y) proceeds of Term Loans shall be made
available to the Borrowers as separately agreed between the Administrative Agent and the Company.




          (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent
such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has
made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. In
such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the
Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and such Borrower severally agree to pay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each
day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the
date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the
Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation (including without limitation the Overnight
Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency) or (ii) in the case
of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to
the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such
Borrowing.




          SECTION 2.08. Interest Elections.




          (a) Subject to Section 1.07 and Section 2.02(b), each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type
specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall
have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the relevant
Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type (in the case of a Borrowing
denominated in Dollars) or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing,
may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section.




-55-









 







A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected
Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the
Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a
separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or
continued.




          (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower, or the Company on its behalf,
shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing
Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing
of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each
such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy
or transmission by electronic communication in accordance with Section 9.01(b) to the
Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form attached hereto as
Exhibit G-3 or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the
relevant Borrower, or the Company on its behalf. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein,
this Section shall not be construed to permit any Borrower to (i) change the currency of any
Borrowing, (ii) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans that does not comply with Section
2.02(d) or (iii) convert any Borrowing to a Borrowing of a Type not available under the Class of
Commitments pursuant to which such Borrowing was made.




          (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following
information in compliance with Section 2.02:





     (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different
options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof
to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified
pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);




     (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election
Request, which shall be a Business Day;




     (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency
Borrowing; and




     (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period and
Agreed Currency to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which
Interest Period shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest
Period”.


If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an
Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period
of one month’s duration.




          (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall
advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting
Borrowing.




-56-









 








          (e) If the relevant Borrower or the Company fails to deliver a timely Interest Election
Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable
thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest
Period (i) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be converted to
an ABR Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency, such
Borrowing shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Borrowing in the same Agreed Currency with
an Interest Period of one month unless such Eurocurrency Borrowing is or was repaid in accordance
with Section 2.11. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so
notifies the Company, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding
Revolving Borrowing borrowed by the Company may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency
Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing borrowed by the Company shall
be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii)
unless repaid, each Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency may only be continued for an
Interest Period of one month.




          SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments.




          (a) Unless previously terminated, all Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date.




          (b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving
Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an
amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000 (or, if less, the
remaining amount of such Commitments) and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the
Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in
accordance with Section 2.11, the Dollar Amount of the total Revolving Credit Exposures would
exceed the total Revolving Commitments.




          (c) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce
the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the
effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date
thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section
shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by
the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit
facilities or instruments of Indebtedness, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company
(by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such
condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent.
Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in
accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.




          SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.




          (a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each

Revolving Loan made to such Borrower on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in the currency of
such Loan and (ii) in the case of the Company, to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal
amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the first
date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month
and is at least three (3) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on
each date that a Revolving Loan is made, the Company shall repay all Swingline Loans then
outstanding.

provided, however, that the Euro Borrower shall repay the entire unpaid principal

          (c) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such
Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time
to time hereunder.




          (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount
of each Loan made hereunder, the Class, Agreed Currency and Type thereof and the Interest Period
applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due
and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by
the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.




          (e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this
Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded
therein absent manifest error; provided that the failure of any Lender or the
Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect
the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.




          (f) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by promissory notes. In such
event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender promissory notes payable to
such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent.
Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory notes and interest thereon shall at all times
(including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04 of the Original Credit Agreement or this
Agreement) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named
therein and its registered assigns.




          SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans.




          (a) Optional Prepayments. (i) Any Borrower shall have the right at any time and from
time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty except as set
forth in clause (c) below, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (a)(ii) of this
Section.




-61-









 








          (ii) The applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall notify
the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender)
by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or transmission by electronic communication in accordance with
Section 9.01(b)) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency
Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date
of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New
York City time, on the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan,
not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall
be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or
portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in
connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section
2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in
accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial
prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance
of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of Term
Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11(a) shall be applied to repayments thereof required pursuant to
Section 2.10(b) in the order selected by the Company. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be
applied ratably to the Loans included in the notice of prepayment. Prepayments pursuant to this
Section 2.11(a) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13 and
shall be subject to Section 2.16.




          (iii) If at any time, (A) other than as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates,
the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all of the Revolving Credit Exposures
(calculated, with respect to those Credit Events denominated in Foreign Currencies, as of the most
recent Computation Date with respect to each such Credit Event) exceeds the total Revolving
Commitments or (B) solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the sum of the
aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure, in
each case denominated in Foreign Currencies, as of the most recent Computation Date with respect to
each such Credit Event, exceeds 105% of the Foreign Currency Sublimit and the Borrowers receive
written notice from the Administrative Agent of such excess, the Borrowers shall promptly give
notice to repay Revolving Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i) or cash collateralize LC
Disbursements in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(j), as
applicable, in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to eliminate any such excess.




          (b) Mandatory Prepayments. (i) No later than 105 days after the end of each fiscal
year of the Company (commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008), the Company shall
apply an amount in accordance with Section 2.11(b)(iv) in an aggregate Dollar Amount equal to
(A) the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow, if positive, for the fiscal year covered by such
financial statements minus (B) the sum of (x) all voluntary prepayments of Term Loans during such
fiscal year and (y) all voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans during such fiscal year to the
extent the Revolving Commitments are permanently reduced by the amount of such payments.




-62-









 








          (ii) (A) If the Company or any Subsidiary receives any Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale
or Casualty Event, the Company shall apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds (in
the case of an Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary in connection with which funds are repatriated to
the United States in order to comply with this Section 2.11(b)(ii), net of additional taxes payable
or reserved against as a result thereof) in accordance with Section 2.11(b)(iv) on or prior to the
date which is ten (10) Business Days after the date of the realization or receipt of such Net Cash
Proceeds; provided that no such prepayment shall be required pursuant to this Section
2.11(b)(ii)(A) with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds (x) that the Company shall reinvest in
accordance with Section 2.11(b)(ii)(B) provided that this clause (x) shall not apply to any Asset
Sale made in reliance on Section 6.11(m) or (y) if on a Pro Forma Basis, the Company’s Consolidated
Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements
have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b) prior to the date of receipt of such Net
Cash Proceeds is equal to or less than 3.5 to 1.0;




          (B) With respect to any Net Cash Proceeds realized or received with respect to any Asset Sale
or Casualty Event, at the option of the Company the Company may reinvest all or any portion of such
Net Cash Proceeds in assets useful for the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s business within (x) twelve
(12) months following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds or (y) if the Company or a Subsidiary
enters into a legally binding commitment to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds within twelve (12)
months following receipt thereof, within six (6) months following the last day of such twelve month
period; provided that any such Net Cash Proceeds that are not so reinvested within the
applicable time period set forth above shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.11(b)(ii)(A)
within five (5) Business Days after the end of the applicable time period set forth above.




          (iii) If the Company or any Subsidiary incurs or issues any Indebtedness not expressly
permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 6.01 (without prejudice to the restrictions
therein), the Company shall apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds received by the
Company or any Subsidiary therefrom in accordance with Section 2.11(b)(iv) on or prior to the date
which is three (3) Business Days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds.




          (iv) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment
of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 2.11(b) at
least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify
the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such
prepayment; provided that in the case of the Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale by a
Foreign Subsidiary made in reliance on Section 6.11(m), if the Company determines that the
repatriation of such proceeds into the United States in order to prepay Term Loans of the U.S.
Borrower would result in adverse tax consequences to the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries
then, in lieu of applying all or a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to Section
2.11(b)(iv), the Company may apply such portion of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay Euro Term Loans
in accordance with Section 2.11(a) within ten (10) Business Days following the date of receipt of
such Net Cash Proceeds. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Term Lender of the
contents of the Company’s prepayment notice and of such Term Lender’s pro rata share of the
prepayment. Each Term Lender may reject all or a




-63-









 







portion of its pro rata share of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the
“Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (i) through
(iii) of this Section 2.11(b) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to
the Administrative Agent and the Company no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) one Business Day
after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such
prepayment. Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the
mandatory repayment of Term Loans to be rejected by such Lender. If a Term Lender fails to deliver
a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such
Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such
failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such
mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. Any Declined Proceeds shall be offered to the Term Lenders not
so declining such prepayment on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Dollar Amounts of the Term
Loans of such Lenders (with such non-declining Term Lenders having the right to decline any
prepayment with Declined Proceeds at the time and in the manner specified by the Administrative
Agent). To the extent such non-declining Term Lenders elect to decline their pro rata share of
such Declined Proceeds, any Declined Proceeds remaining thereafter (the “Retained Declined
Proceeds”) shall be retained by the Company and used for any purpose not otherwise prohibited
by this Agreement. The Administrative Agent may make appropriate adjustments to the accounts of
the Term Lenders to reflect any non pro rata payment of Term Loans of any Class as a result of this
Section 2.11(b)(iv).




          (v) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.11(b) to the contrary, (i) to the
extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale pursuant to Section 6.11(j) or
(k) by a Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(ii) (a
“Foreign Disposition”), the Net Cash Proceeds of any Casualty Event from a Foreign
Subsidiary (a “Foreign Casualty Event”), or Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign
Subsidiaries are prohibited or delayed by applicable local Law from being repatriated to the United
States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required
to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.11(b) but may be retained
by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable Law will not
permit or delays repatriation to the United States (the Company hereby agreeing to cause the
applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable
Law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash
Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable Law, such repatriation will be
immediately effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly
(and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of
additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term
Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) to the extent provided herein and (ii) to the extent that
the Company has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds
of any Foreign Disposition, any Foreign Casualty Event or Excess Cash Flow would have adverse tax
consequences, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the
applicable Foreign Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of this clause (ii), on or before
the date 24 months following the date of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds or the date on which
Excess Cash Flow so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or
prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.11(b), (x) the Company shall apply an amount equal to such
Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow to such reinvestments or




-64-









 







prepayments as if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been received by the Company
rather than such Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been
payable or reserved against if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been repatriated (or,
if less, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow that would be calculated if received by such
Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow shall be applied to the
repayment of Indebtedness of a Foreign Subsidiary.




          (vi) Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) shall be applied, subject
to Section 2.11(b)(iv), pro rata to each Class of Term Loans and shall be further applied to such
Class of Term Loans, first in direct order of maturity to repayments thereof required pursuant to
Section 2.10(b) in the 24-month period following the date such prepayment becomes payable and
second ratably to the remaining repayments of Term Loans of such Class required pursuant to Section
2.10(b); and each such prepayment of any Class of Term Loans shall be offered to the Lenders
holding such Term Loans on a pro rata basis.




          (vii) Any prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) shall be accompanied by
accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13 and shall be subject to Section 2.16.




          (c) Prepayment Premium. In connection with any prepayment of U.S. Tranche B Term
Loans or Euro Tranche B Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a) or Section 2.11(b) (other than
Section 2.11(b)(i)) prior to the one-year anniversary of the Amendment and Restatement Effective
Date, the applicable Borrower shall pay a premium to the Lenders holding such Loans equal to 1.0%
of the principal amount of the U.S. Tranche B Term Loans or Euro Tranche B Term Loans so prepaid.




          SECTION 2.12. Fees.




          (a) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving
Lender a facility fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily Dollar Amount of the
Revolving Commitment of such Lender (whether used or unused) during the period from and including
the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates; provided
that, if such Lender continues to have any Revolving Credit Exposure after its Revolving Commitment
terminates, then such facility fee shall continue to accrue on the daily Dollar Amount of such
Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure from and including the date on which its Revolving Commitment
terminates to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Revolving Credit
Exposure; provided, however, that any facility fee accrued with respect to the
Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became
a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Company so long as such
Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such facility fee shall otherwise
have been due and payable by the Company prior to such time; and provided further
that no facility fee shall accrue on the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as
such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Accrued facility fees shall be payable in arrears on the
last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving
Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof;
provided that any facility fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments
terminate shall be payable on demand. All facility fees shall




-65-









 







be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of
days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).




          (b) The Company agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which
shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to
Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily Dollar Amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure
(excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period
from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s
Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure
and (ii) to the relevant Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per
annum on the average daily Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof
attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such
Issuing Bank during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of
the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any
LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees and commissions with respect to the
issuance, amendment, cancellation, negotiation, transfer, presentment, renewal or extension of any
Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Unless otherwise specified above,
participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June,
September and December of each year shall be payable on the third (3rd) Business Day
following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date;
provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments
terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate
shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph
shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall
be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days
elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).




          (c) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable
in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative
Agent.




          (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and immediately
available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the relevant Issuing Bank, in the case of fees
payable to it) for distribution, in the case of facility fees and participation fees, to the
Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.




          SECTION 2.13. Interest.




          (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear
interest at the Alternate Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Rate.




          (b) (i) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency
other than euro shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for
such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.




-66-









 








          (ii) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in euro shall bear interest
at the Adjusted EURIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the
Applicable Rate.




          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or
other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity,
upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before
judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2%
plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of
this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR
Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.




          (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments;
provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be
payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a
prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period or a Swingline
Loan), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of
such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan
prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be
payable on the effective date of such conversion.




          (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that
interest (i) computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate
is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a
leap year) and (ii) for Borrowings denominated in Sterling shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the
first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate,
LIBO Rate, Adjusted EURIBO Rate or EURIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and such determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.




          SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any
Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:





     (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
Adjusted LIBO Rate, LIBO Rate, Adjusted EURIBO Rate or EURIBO Rate, as applicable, for such
Interest Period; or




     (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO
Rate, LIBO Rate, Adjusted EURIBO Rate or EURIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest
Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making
or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest
Period;



-67-









 




then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders
by telephone or telecopy or transmission by electronic communication in accordance with Section
9.01(b) as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the
applicable Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer
exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing
to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective,
(ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be
made as an ABR Borrowing, (iii) all Euro Tranche A Term Loans shall bear interest at a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith to reflect the Euro Tranche A Term Lenders
cost of maintaining the Euro Tranche A Term Loans plus the Applicable Rate and (iv) all Euro
Tranche B Term Loans shall bear interest at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in good
faith to reflect the Euro Tranche B Term Lenders cost of maintaining the Euro Tranche B Term Loans
plus the Applicable Rate.




          SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs.




          (a) If any Change in Law shall:





     (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by,
any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the
Adjusted EURIBO Rate) or any Issuing Bank; or




     (ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other
condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter
of Credit or participation therein (excluding imposition of Taxes resulting from a Change in
Law, which shall be governed by Section 2.17);


and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or
maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan
(including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an
Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed Currency) or to increase the cost
to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of
Credit (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in
an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed Currency) or to reduce the
amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder, whether of
principal, interest or otherwise (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any
Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed
Currency), in each case by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be material in
the context of its making of, and participation in, extensions of credit under this Agreement,
then, upon the request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower will pay to
such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred
or reduction suffered.




          (b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines in good faith that any Change in Law
regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate




-68-









 







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




          (c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the amount
or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the
case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Company
and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay, or cause the other Borrowers
to pay, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.




          (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s
right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to
compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or
reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as
the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include
the period of retroactive effect thereof.




          SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any
principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable
thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to
Section 2.11), (b) the conversion (other than pursuant to Section 1.07(b)) of any Eurocurrency Loan
other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow,
convert (other than pursuant to Section 1.07(b)), continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the
date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be
revoked under Section 2.11 and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any
Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result
of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.19 or the CAM Exchange, then, in any such event,
the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense (excluding loss of
anticipated profit) attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender may be
deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount
of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not
occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate or Adjusted EURIBO Rate (as applicable) that would have been
applicable to such Loan (and excluding any Applicable Rate), for the period




-69-









 







from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or,
in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the
Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such
principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid,
at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount
and period from other banks in the eurocurrency market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth
in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this
Section shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.




          SECTION 2.17. Taxes.




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




          (b) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law.




          (c) The relevant Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each
Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of
such Borrower (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any payment by any Loan Party on behalf of
such Borrower) hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section), and any other Other Taxes, and reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A
certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Lender or
an Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an
Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.




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




-70-









 








          (e) Any Foreign Lender that is legally entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is located, or any treaty to
which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to
such Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by
applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by such Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding
or at a reduced rate.




          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to any Loan made to a Borrower
that is organized in the United States of America or the Euro Borrower, any Foreign Lender shall,
to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such
number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such
Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the
request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally
entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:





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




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




     (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate, in substantially the
form of Exhibit J, or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent, to the
effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning
of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in
Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and that no payments in connection with the Loan Documents
are effectively connected with such Foreign Lender’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business and
(y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms),
or




     (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable requirements of Law as a basis for
claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable
requirements of Law to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the
withholding or deduction required to be made.



          To the extent it is legally entitled to do so: any Foreign Lender that does not act or ceases
to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender
under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation) shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (in such number of original copies as shall be
requested by the recipient), on or prior to the date such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender, or on
such later date when such Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any
portion of any such sums paid or payable (and from time to time thereafter, if




-71-









 







reasonably requested by the Borrower or Administrative Agent) duly completed copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms), together with information, if any, such
Foreign Lender is required to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of
exemption required under the Code or the regulations thereunder, to establish that such Foreign
Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such
Foreign Lender and to establish that such remaining portion may be received without deduction for,
or at a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax.




          Each Foreign Lender shall, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Foreign Lender
of the forms described above, whenever a lapse in time or change in such Foreign Lender’s
circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence so delivered obsolete or
inaccurate, promptly (1) deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of
copies as shall be requested by the recipient) renewals, amendments or additional or successor
forms, properly completed and duly executed by such Foreign Lender, together with any other
certificate or statement of exemption required in order to confirm or establish such Foreign
Lender’s status or that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in U.S.
federal withholding tax or (2) notify Administrative Agent and the Company of its inability to
deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.




          (f) If the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or a Lender determines, in its sole good
faith discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall promptly pay over such refund to such Borrower (but only to
the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this
Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such
refund); provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such
Issuing Bank or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the
Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or
such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. The Administrative
Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender shall, at the Company’s request, provide the Company with a
copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received
from the relevant Governmental Authority (provided that the Administrative Agent, such
Issuing Bank or such Lender may delete any information therein that the Administrative Agent, such
Issuing Bank or such Lender deems confidential). This Section shall not be construed to require
the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.




          SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs.




          (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of
principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section
2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to (i) in the case of




-72-









 







payments by the Company denominated in Dollars, 2:00 p.m., New York City time and (ii) in the
case of payments by the Euro Borrower or payments denominated in a Foreign Currency, 2:00 p.m.,
Local Time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such
currency, in each case on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff or
counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the
Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for
purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made (i) in the same currency
in which the applicable Credit Event was made (or where such currency has been converted to
Dollars, in Dollars) and (ii) to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New
York, New York 10017 or, in the case of a Credit Event denominated in a Foreign Currency, the
Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency, except payments to be made
directly to an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that
payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons
entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments denominated in the
same currency received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient
promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in
the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such
extension. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any
Credit Event in any Foreign Currency, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the
country which issues such currency with the result that the type of currency in which the Credit
Event was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or any Borrower is not able to
make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency,
then all payments to be made by such Borrower hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when
due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such
payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Borrowers take all risks of the
imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.




          (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative
Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then
due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due
hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest
and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed
LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with
the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.




          (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in
LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater
proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and
Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then
the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations
in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the
extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be




-73-









 







shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and
accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline
Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of
the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the
purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions
of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to
and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as
consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or
participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than
to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph
shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively
do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing
arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to
such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount
of such participation.




          (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the relevant Borrower
prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Lenders or the relevant Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance
herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or such Issuing Bank,
as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such
payment, then each of the Lenders or the relevant Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally
agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such
Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount
is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the
greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (including without limitation the
Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency).




          (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section
2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its
discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received
by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations
under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.




          SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.




          (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different
lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the good faith judgment of such
Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to
Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and




-74-









 







(ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise
be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket
costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
Any Lender claiming reimbursement of such costs and expenses shall deliver to the Company a
certificate setting forth such costs and expenses in reasonable detail which shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.




          (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or any Lender is unable to
fund its portion of any Loan as a result of any applicable law or regulation prohibiting, or any
order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority enjoining, prohibiting or restraining, any
Lender from making any Loan requested by such Borrower or any Issuing Bank or any Lender from
issuing, renewing, extending or increasing the face amount of or participating in the Letter of
Credit requested to be issued, renewed, extended or increased by such Borrower, or if any Lender (a
“Non-Consenting Lender”) fails to grant a consent in connection with any proposed change,
waiver, discharge or termination of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by Section
9.02 for which the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender is required but the consent of
the Required Lenders is obtained, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice
to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its
interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such
obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);
provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, to the extent required by
Section 9.04, and (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the
outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans,
accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including, in
the case of any U.S. Tranche B Term Loans or Euro Tranche B Term Loans of a Non-Consenting Lender
removed prior to the one-year anniversary of the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date, the
premium that would have been payable to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(c) had such Lender’s
U.S. Tranche B Term Loans or Euro Tranche B Term Loans been prepaid on such date), from the
assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company
(in the case of all other amounts).




          SECTION 2.20. Expansion Option.




          (a) The Company may from time to time elect to increase the Revolving Commitments
(“Increased Commitments”) or enter into one or more tranches of term loans or increase the
amount of the U.S. Tranche B Term Loans or Euro Tranche B Term Loans (each, an “Incremental
Term Loan”), in each case in an aggregate principal Dollar Amount of not less than $25,000,000
(provided that such amount may be less than the Equivalent Amount of $25,000,000 if such
amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in this sentence) so long
as, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such Increased Commitments and all
such Incremental Term Loans does not exceed the Equivalent Amount of




-75-









 







$500,000,000. The Company may arrange for any such increase or tranche to be provided by one
or more Lenders (each Lender so agreeing to an increase in its Revolving Commitment, or to
participate in such Incremental Term Loan, an “Increasing Lender”), or by one or more new
banks, financial institutions or other entities (each such new bank, financial institution or other
entity, an “Augmenting Lender”), to increase their existing Revolving Commitment, or to
participate in such Incremental Term Loan, or extend Revolving Commitments, as the case may be;
provided that (i) each Augmenting Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Company
and the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and (ii) (x) in the case of an
Increasing Lender, the Company and such Increasing Lender execute an agreement substantially in the
form of Exhibit C hereto (or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent),
and (y) in the case of an Augmenting Lender, the Company and such Augmenting Lender execute an
agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto (or otherwise reasonably acceptable
to the Administrative Agent). Without the consent of any Lenders other than the relevant
Increasing Lenders or Augmenting Lenders, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be
amended as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent
and the Company, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.20. Increases and new Revolving
Commitments and Incremental Term Loans created pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall become effective
on the date agreed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the relevant Increasing Lenders or
Augmenting Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no increase in the Revolving Commitments (or in the Revolving Commitment of any
Lender) or tranche of Incremental Term Loan shall become effective under this paragraph unless (i)
on the proposed date of the effectiveness of such increase or Incremental Term Loan, the conditions
set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied or waived by the Required
Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such
date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Company, and (ii) the Company and its Subsidiaries
shall be in compliance, calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, with the covenants contained in
Section 6.09 as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter of the Company for which
financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b). On the effective date
of any increase in the Revolving Commitments or any Incremental Term Loans being made (assuming
that any Increased Commitments were fully drawn), (i) each relevant Increasing Lender and
Augmenting Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately
available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other Lenders,
as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase and the use of such
amounts to make payments to such other Lenders, each Lender’s portion of the outstanding Loans of
all the Lenders to equal its Applicable Percentage of such outstanding Loans, and (ii) except in
the case of any Incremental Term Loans, if, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving
Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Increased
Commitments be prepaid to the extent necessary from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans made
hereunder by the Increasing Lenders and Augmenting Lenders, so that, after giving effect to such
prepayments and any borrowings on such date of all or any portion of such Increased Commitments,
the principal balance of all outstanding Revolving Loans owing to each Lender with a Revolving
Commitment is equal to such Lender’s pro rata share (after giving effect to any nonratable
Increased Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.20) of all then outstanding Revolving Loans. The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the borrowing notice, minimum borrowing, pro
rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements




-76-









 







contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to
the immediately preceding sentence. The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (ii) of the
immediately preceding sentence shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued interest on the
amount prepaid and, in respect of each Eurocurrency Loan, shall be subject to indemnification by
the Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.16 if the deemed payment occurs other than on
the last day of the related Interest Periods. The Incremental Term Loans (a) shall rank pari passu
in right of payment and of security with the Revolving Loans, the U.S. Tranche A Term Loans and the
U.S. Tranche B Term Loans or, in the case of Incremental Term Loans that are Euro Tranche B Term
Loans, the Euro Tranche B Term Loans, as applicable, (b) shall not mature earlier than the Term
Loan B Maturity Date (but may have amortization prior to such date, provided that the
Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Incremental Term Loans shall not be shorter than the
Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the U.S. Tranche B Term Loans) and (c) shall be treated
substantially the same as (and in any event no more favorably than) the Revolving Loans and the
initial U.S. Tranche B Term Loans, provided that (i) the terms and conditions applicable to
any tranche of Incremental Term Loans may be different from those applicable to the U.S. Tranche B
Term Loans, to the extent, except as specifically contemplated hereby, reasonably satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent, and (ii) the Incremental Term Loans may be priced differently than the
Term Loans.




          (b) This Section 2.20 shall supersede any provisions in Section 9.02 to the contrary.




          SECTION 2.21. Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions
referred to in Article II and Article IV with respect to any Revolving Borrowing to be effected in
any Foreign Currency, if (i) there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Borrowing any change
in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates
or exchange controls which would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, the
relevant Issuing Bank (if such Credit Event is a Letter of Credit) or the Required Revolving
Lenders make it impracticable for the applicable Eurocurrency Borrowings or Letters of Credit
comprising such Credit Event to be denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by the applicable
Borrower or (ii) an Equivalent Amount of such currency is not readily calculable, then the
Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to such Borrower, the Lenders and, if such
Credit Event is a Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Bank, and such Credit Events shall not be
denominated in such Agreed Currency but shall, except as otherwise set forth in Section 2.07, be
made on the date of such Credit Event in Dollars, (a) if such Credit Event is a Borrowing, in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified
in the related Borrowing Request or Interest Election Request, as the case may be, unless such
Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day before such date that (i)
it elects not to borrow on such date or (ii) it elects to borrow on such date in a different Agreed
Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Loans would, in the reasonable
opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Required Revolving Lenders, be practicable and in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified
in the related Borrowing Request or Interest Election Request, as the case may be or (b) if such
Credit Event is a Letter of Credit, in a face amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the face amount
specified in the related request or application for such Letter of Credit, unless such Borrower
notifies the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day




-77-









 







before such date that (i) it elects not to request the issuance of such
Letter of Credit on such
date or (ii) it elects to have such Letter of Credit issued on such date in a different Agreed
Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Letter of Credit would in the
reasonable opinion of the relevant Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Required
Revolving Lenders be practicable and in face amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the face amount
specified in the related request or application for such Letter of Credit, as the case may be.




          SECTION 2.22. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any
court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to
be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto
agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall
be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could
purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New
York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non appealable judgment is
given. The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the
Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the
specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by
such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in
such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance
with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other
currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due
to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each
Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and
notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the
case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds
(a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the
specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such
excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.18, such Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to such Borrower.




ARTICLE III

Representations and Warranties




          Each Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders as of the Effective Date and (except as
to representations and warranties made as of a date certain) as of the date such representations
and warranties are deemed to be made under Section 4.02 of this Agreement, that:




          SECTION 3.01. Organization; Powers; Subsidiaries. Each of the Company and its
Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent such concept
is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization,
has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where
the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing (to the
extent such concept is applicable) in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.




-78-









 







Schedule 3.01 hereto identifies each Subsidiary on the Effective Date, if such
Subsidiary is a Specified Domestic Subsidiary or a Specified Foreign Subsidiary, the jurisdiction
of its incorporation or organization, as the case may be, the percentage of issued and outstanding
shares of each class of its capital stock or other equity interests owned by the Company and the
other Subsidiaries and, if such percentage is not 100% (excluding directors’ qualifying shares as
required by law), a description of each class issued and outstanding. All of the outstanding
shares of capital stock and other equity interests, to the extent owned by the Company or any
Subsidiary, of each Subsidiary are validly issued and outstanding and fully paid and nonassessable
and all such shares and other equity interests indicated on Schedule 3.01 as owned by the
Company or another Subsidiary were owned, beneficially and of record, by the Company or any
Subsidiary on the Effective Date free and clear of all Liens, other than Liens permitted under
Section 6.02. As of the Effective Date, there were no outstanding commitments or other obligations
of the Company or any Subsidiary to issue, and no options, warrants or other rights of any Person
to acquire, any shares of any class of capital stock or other equity interests of any Subsidiary,
except as disclosed on Schedule 3.01.




          SECTION 3.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions are within each Loan
Party’s corporate, limited liability company or partnership powers and have been duly authorized by
all necessary corporate or other organizational and, if required, stockholder action. The Loan
Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the Loan Parties party thereto and constitute a
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Loan Parties party thereto, enforceable against such
Loan Parties in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to
general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.




          SECTION 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not
require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any
Governmental Authority, except for (A) filings necessary to perfect or maintain the perfection of
the Liens on the Collateral granted by the Loan Parties in favor of the Administrative Agent,
(B) the approvals, consents, registrations, actions and filings which have been duly obtained,
taken, given or made and are in full force and effect and (C) those approvals, consents,
registrations or other actions or filings, the failure of which to obtain or make could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not violate (i) any applicable
law or regulation or order of any Governmental Authority or (ii) the charter, by-laws or other
organizational documents of any Loan Party, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any
indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon any Loan Party or its assets, or give rise to
a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Loan Party, and (d) will not result in
the creation or imposition of any Lien on any material asset of any Loan Party (other than pursuant
to the Loan Documents and Liens permitted by Section 6.02); except with respect to any violation or
default referred to in clause (b)(i) or (c) above, to the extent that such violation or default
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.




-79-









 








          SECTION 3.04. Financial Statements; Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change.




          (a) The Company has heretofore furnished to the Lenders (i) the consolidated balance sheet and
statements of earnings, stockholders equity and cash flows of the Company (x) as of March 31, 2007
and March 31, 2006 and for each of the three fiscal years ended March 31, 2007 reported on by
Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent public accountants, and (y) as of, and for the fiscal quarters

which financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position and results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of such dates and for such
periods in accordance with GAAP.




          (b) The Company has heretofore furnished to the Lenders the combined balance sheets,
statements of income and statements of cash flows of the Merck Generics Group as of December 31,
2006 and December 31, 2005 and for the three fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 reported on by

fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows
of the Merck Generics Group as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.




          (c) Since March 31, 2007, there has been no material adverse change in the business, assets,
properties or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.




          SECTION 3.05. Properties.




          (a) Each Loan Party has title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its material real and
personal property material to its business, except for minor defects in title that do not interfere
with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for
their intended purposes and except where the failure to have such title or interest could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no Liens on any of the real or
personal properties of the Company or any Subsidiary except for Liens permitted by Section 6.02.
No Mortgage encumbers improved real property that is located in an area that has been identified by
the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood hazards within the
meaning of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 unless flood insurance available under such Act
has been obtained in accordance with Section 5.05.




          (b) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed or possesses the right to
use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to
the operation of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and, to the
knowledge of any Borrower, the use thereof by the Company and its Subsidiaries does not infringe
upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.




-80-









 








          SECTION 3.06. Litigation and Environmental Matters.




          (a) There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental
Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened against or affecting the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse
determination and that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in
a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Matters). There are no labor controversies
pending against or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.




          (b) Except for the Disclosed Matters and except with respect to any other matters that,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has failed to comply with any
applicable Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other
approval required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental
Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or
(iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability.




          SECTION 3.07. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. Each of the Company and its
Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority
applicable to it or its property and all agreements and other instruments (excluding agreements
governing Indebtedness) binding upon it or its property, except where the failure to do so,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.




          SECTION 3.08. Investment Company Status. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries is required to register as an “investment company” as defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940.




          SECTION 3.09. Taxes. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has timely filed or
caused to be filed all material Tax returns and material reports required to have been filed and
has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that are
being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which the Company or such
Subsidiary, as applicable, has set aside on its books reserves to the extent required by GAAP or
(b) to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected, individually or in
the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.




          SECTION 3.10. Solvency. On the Effective Date after giving effect to the
Transactions, the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are Solvent.




          SECTION 3.11. Labor Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (a) there are no strikes or other labor disputes
against the Company or any Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened; (b)
hours worked by and payment made to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries have not been in
violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Laws dealing with such matters;
and (c) all payments due from the Company and its Subsidiaries on account of
employee health and welfare insurance have been paid or accrued as a liability on





-81-












 




employee health and welfare insurance have been paid or accrued as a liability
on the books of the relevant party. The consummation of the Transaction will not give rise to any
right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective
bargaining agreement to which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound, except as could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.




          SECTION
3.12. Disclosure. Neither the Information Memorandum nor any of the other reports,
financial statements, certificates or other written information (excluding any financial
projections or pro forma financial information) furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or
delivered hereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), when taken as
a whole and when taken together with the Company’s SEC filings at such time, contains as of the
date of such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished any material
misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein,
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The projections and
pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above have been prepared in
good faith based upon assumptions believed by management of the Company to be reasonable at the
time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to
future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods
covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a
material amount.




          SECTION
3.13. Federal Reserve Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loan have been used or
will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of any of
the Regulations of the Board, including Regulations T, U and X.




          SECTION
3.14. Security Interests. The provisions of each Collateral Document are effective to
create legal and valid Liens on all the Collateral in respect of which and to the extent such
Collateral Document purports to create Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit
of the Secured Parties or the Foreign Secured Parties, as applicable; and upon the proper filing of
UCC financing statements, the proper filing of Mortgages with respect to Material Real Properties
and the taking of all other actions to be taken pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Documents,
such Liens constitute perfected and continuing Liens on the Collateral, securing the Obligations,
enforceable against the applicable Loan Party and all third parties to the extent required by the
Collateral Documents.




ARTICLE IV




Conditions




          SECTION
4.01. Initial Credit Events. The obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and of the
Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit on the Effective Date were subject to each of the
following conditions being satisfied (or waived in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Original
Credit Agreement) on or prior to the Effective Date:




-82-









 









     (a) The Administrative Agent (or its counsel) shall have received from (i) each party
thereto either (A) a counterpart of the Original Credit Agreement signed on behalf of such
party or (B) written evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (which may
include telecopy or electronic mail transmission in accordance with Section 9.01(b) of a
signed signature page of the Original Credit Agreement) that such party has signed a
counterpart of the Original Credit Agreement.




     (b) The Administrative Agent (or its counsel) shall have received from the Company and
each initial U.S. Guarantor either (A) a counterpart of the U.S. Guarantee and Security

requiring such notice and any action taken or proposed to be taken with respect thereto.




          SECTION 5.03. Existence; Conduct of Business. The Company will, and will cause each of its Material

maintained by companies engaged in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar
locations. All property and liability insurance as reasonably requested by the Administrative
Agent shall name the Administrative Agent as mortgagee (in the case of property insurance), if
applicable, or additional insured on behalf of the Secured Parties (in the case of liability
insurance) or loss payee (in the case of property insurance), as applicable. With respect to each
Mortgaged Property, obtain flood insurance in such total amount as the Administrative Agent may
from time to time reasonably require, if at any time the area in which




-88-









 







any improvements located on any Mortgaged Property is designated a “flood hazard area” in any
Flood Insurance Rate Map published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor

condition with its officers and use commercially reasonable efforts to make its independent
accountants available to discuss the affairs, finances and condition of the Borrowers, all at such
reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested and in all cases subject to applicable Law
and the terms of applicable confidentiality agreements; provided that (i) the Lenders will
conduct such requests for visits and inspections through the Administrative Agent and (ii) unless
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such visits and inspections can occur no more
frequently than once per year. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall give the Company the
opportunity to participate in any discussions with the Company’s independent accountants.




          SECTION 5.07. Compliance with Laws; Compliance with Agreements. The Company will, and will cause

Laws) and (ii) perform in all material respects its obligations under material agreements (other
than in respect of Indebtedness) to which it is a party, in each case except where the failure to
do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.




          SECTION 5.08. Use of Proceeds and Letters of Credit. The proceeds of the Term Loans will be used to
finance the Transaction and the proceeds of Loans and other credit extensions made following the
Effective Date only to finance the working capital needs, and for general corporate purposes
(including refinancing of existing Indebtedness, acquisitions and other investments), of the
Company and its Subsidiaries. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly
or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the Regulations of the Board,

     (l) an ERISA Event shall have occurred that, when taken together with all other ERISA

-109-









 






rescind any Collateral Document, in each case with respect to a material portion of the
Collateral purported to be covered by the Collateral Documents,


then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Company described in clause
(h) or (i) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the
Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the
Company, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i)
terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii)
declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any
principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable),
and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued
interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrowers accrued hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand,
protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers; and in case
of any event with respect to the Company described in clause (h) or (i) of this Article, the
Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together
with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other Obligations accrued hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand,
protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers.




          Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, any Specified Target Default shall not constitute
an Event of Default under this Article VII unless such Specified Target Default has not been cured
or waived on or prior to the 90th day following the Effective Date.




          On the CAM Exchange Date, (i) the Commitments shall automatically and without further act be
terminated in accordance with Article VII, (ii) the Lenders shall automatically and without further
act be deemed to have exchanged interests in the Designated Obligations such that, in lieu of the
interests of each Lender in the Designated Obligations under each Class of Loans and Commitments in
which it shall participate immediately prior to the CAM Exchange, such Lender shall own an interest
equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in the Designated Obligations under each Class of Loans and
Commitments immediately following the CAM Exchange and (iii) simultaneously with the deemed
exchange of interests pursuant to clause (ii) above, the interests in the Designated Obligations to
be received in such deemed exchange shall, automatically and with no further action required, be
converted into Dollars based on the Dollar Amount thereof, determined using the Exchange Rate
calculated as of the CAM Exchange Date, of such amount and on and after such date all amounts
accruing and owed to the Lenders in respect of such Designated Obligations shall accrue and be
payable in Dollars at the rate otherwise applicable hereunder. Each Lender, each Person acquiring a
participation from any Lender as contemplated by Section 9.04 of the Original Credit Agreement or
this Agreement and each Borrower hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange. Each of the
Borrowers and the Lenders agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent all such promissory notes and other instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent
shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests and obligations of the
Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees to surrender any promissory
notes originally received by it in connection with its Loans hereunder to the Administrative Agent




-110-









 







against delivery of any promissory notes so executed and delivered; provided that the
failure of any Borrower to execute or deliver or of any Lender to accept any such promissory note,
instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange.




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




          In the event that, on or after the CAM Exchange Date, the aggregate amount of the Designated
Obligations shall change as a result of the making of an LC Disbursement that is not reimbursed by
any Borrower, then (i) each Revolving Lender shall, in accordance with Section 2.06(e), promptly
pay its Applicable Percentage of such LC Disbursement to the relevant Issuing Bank in respect of
such unreimbursed LC Disbursement (without giving effect to the CAM Exchange), (ii) the
Administrative Agent shall redetermine the CAM Percentages after giving effect to such disbursement
and the making of such payments and the Lenders shall automatically and without further act be
deemed to have exchanged interests in the Designated Obligations such that each Lender shall own an
interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in the Designated Obligations under each of the
Tranches (and the interests in the Designated Obligations to be received in such deemed exchange
shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Amount of
such amount in accordance with the first sentence of the preceding paragraph), and (iii) in the
event distributions shall have previously been made with respect to the Designated Obligations in
accordance with the preceding paragraph, the Lenders shall make such payments to one another as
shall be necessary in order that the amounts received by them shall be equal to the amounts they
would have received had each such LC Disbursement been outstanding on the CAM Exchange Date. Each
such redetermination shall be binding on each of the Lenders and their successors and assigns and
shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.




ARTICLE VIII




The Administrative Agent




          (a) Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative
Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and
to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and the
other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.




          (b) The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and
powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were
not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money
to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.




-111-









 








          (c) To the extent required by any applicable law, the Agents may withhold from any payment to
any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service
or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that an Agent did
not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason
(including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly
executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstance that
rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Agent (to the extent that the Agent has not already been reimbursed
by any Borrower and without limiting or expanding the obligation of any Borrower to do so) for all
amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any interest,
additions to Tax or penalties thereto, together with all expenses incurred, including legal
expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally
imposed or asserted by the relevant Government Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such
payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.




          (d) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly
set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent
shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has
occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any
discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as
directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided herein), and (c) except as expressly set forth
herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for
the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is
communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in
any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of
the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided herein) or in the absence of
its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be
deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the
Administrative Agent by the Company or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate,
report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or
observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv)
the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other
agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV
or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to
the Administrative Agent.




          (e) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability
for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or
other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or




-112-









 







sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to
it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur
any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who
may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and
shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any
such counsel, accountants or experts in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.




          (f) The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and
powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its
rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the
preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the
Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in
connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities
as Administrative Agent.




          (g) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided
in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the
Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall
have the right, in consultation with the Company and (unless a Specified Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing) with the consent of the Company (which consent of the Company
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have
been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty
(30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the
retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent from among the Lenders which shall be a bank with an office in New
York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the
retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The
fees payable by any Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable
to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such successor. After the
Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their
respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them
while it was acting as Administrative Agent.




          (h) Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each
Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time
deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based
upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.




-113-









 









     (i) The Lenders irrevocably agree:




     (i) that any Lien on any Property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under
any Loan Document shall be automatically released (A) upon termination of the Commitments
and payment in full of all Obligations or, solely in the case of any Lien solely for the
Foreign Obligations, the Foreign Obligations (in each case, other than (x) obligations under
Secured Hedge Agreements, (y) Cash Management Obligations and (z) contingent reimbursement
and indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable) and the expiration or
termination of all Letters of Credit, (B) at the time the Property subject to such Lien is
transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer permitted
hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person (other than (x) in the case of a
transfer by a U.S. Loan Party, any transfer to another U.S. Loan Party and (y) in the case
of a transfer by a Foreign Loan Party, any transfer to another Foreign Loan Party), (C)
subject to Section 9.02, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in
writing by the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required
pursuant to Section 9.02), or (D) if the Property subject to such Lien is owned by a
Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee under the
applicable Guarantee and Security Agreement pursuant to clause (iii) below;




     (ii) (A) to release or subordinate any Lien on any Property granted to or held by the
Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that
is permitted by Section 6.02(e) and (B) that the Administrative Agent is authorized (but not
required) to release or subordinate any Lien on any Property granted to or held by the
Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such Property that
is permitted by any other clause of Section 6.02; and




     (iii) that any Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations under the
applicable Guarantee and Security Agreement if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a
result of a transaction permitted hereunder.


Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders (or such greater number
of Lenders as may be required pursuant to Section 9.02) will confirm in writing the Administrative
Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Property,
or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the applicable Guarantee and Security
Agreement pursuant to this paragraph (h). In each case as specified in this paragraph (h), the
Administrative Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at
the Company’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan
Party may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral
from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents, or to evidence
the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the applicable Guarantee and Security
Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this paragraph (h).




          (j) None of the Persons, if any, identified in this Agreement as an Arranger, Syndication
Agent or Co-Documentation Agent shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility
or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such.




-114-









 







Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a
fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with
respect to the relevant Persons in their respective capacities as an Arranger, Syndication Agent or
Co-Documentation Agent, as applicable, as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in the
preceding paragraph.




          (k) Parallel Debt. For purposes of Luxembourg law and German law Collateral Documents
only:





     (i) The Euro Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes, as far as necessary
in advance, to pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate of all
Foreign Obligations to all the Lenders and the Issuing Bank from time to time due in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (such payment undertaking and the
obligations and liabilities which are the result thereof are referred to as “Parallel
Debt”).




     (ii) Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges that (i) for this purpose, the
Parallel Debt of the Euro Borrower constitutes undertakings, obligations and liabilities of
the Euro Borrower to the Administrative Agent which are separate and independent from, and
without prejudice to, the Foreign Obligations which the Euro Borrower owes to any Lender or
Issuing Bank and (ii) that the Parallel Debt represents the Administrative Agent’s own claim
to receive payment of such Parallel Debt by the Euro Borrower; provided that the
total amount which may become due under the Parallel Debt of the Euro Borrower under this
clause (k) shall never exceed the total amount which may become due under all the Foreign
Obligations of the Euro Borrower to all the Lenders and the Issuing Bank.




     (iii) (A) The total amount due by the Euro Borrower as the Parallel Debt under this
clause (k) shall be decreased to the extent that the Euro Borrower shall have irrevocably
and unconditionally paid any amounts to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank or any of them to
reduce the Euro Borrower’s outstanding Foreign Obligations or any Lender or Issuing Bank
otherwise receives any amount in irrevocable and unconditional payment of such Foreign
Obligations (other than by virtue of paragraph (B) hereafter); and




     (B) To the extent that the Euro Borrower shall have irrevocably and unconditionally
paid any amounts to the Administrative Agent under the Parallel Debt or the Administrative
Agent shall have otherwise received monies in irrevocable and unconditional payment of such
Parallel Debt, the total amount due under the Foreign Obligations shall be decreased.



          (l) Administrative Agent as Joint and Several Creditor. For purposes of Luxembourg
law and German law Collateral Documents only:





     (i) Each party hereto agrees that the Administrative Agent:



-115-









 






     (A) will be the joint and several creditor (together with the relevant Lenders
and the Issuing Bank) of each and every obligation of the Foreign Borrower towards
each Lender and the Issuing Bank under this Agreement; and




     (B) will have its own independent right to demand performance by the Euro
Borrower of those obligations.




     (ii) Discharge by the Euro Borrower of any obligation owed to the Administrative Agent
or another Lender and the Issuing Bank shall, to the same extent, discharge the
corresponding obligation owing to the other.




     (iii) Without limiting or affecting the Administrative Agent’s rights against the Euro
Borrower (whether under this Article VIII or under any other provision of the Credit
Agreement), the Administrative Agent agrees with each other Lender and the Issuing Bank (on
a several and divided basis) that, subject to paragraph (iv) below, it will not exercise its
rights as a joint and several creditor with a Lender or an Issuing Bank except with the
consent of the relevant Lender or Issuing Bank.




     (iv) Nothing in paragraph (iii) above shall in any way limit the Administrative Agent’s
right to act in the protection or preservation of rights under or to enforce any Collateral
Document as contemplated by this Agreement and/or the relevant Collateral Document (or to do
any act reasonably incidental to any of the above).

          SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments.




          (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in
exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other




-117-









 







Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would
otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any
Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph
(b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any
Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have
had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.




          (b) Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document (with respect
to such Loan Document), neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof
or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in
writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the
Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such
agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of each
Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set
forth in Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an
increase of any Commitment of any Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC
Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest or premium thereon, or reduce any fees payable
hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, it being
understood that any change to the definition of “Consolidated Leverage Ratio” or in the component
definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction in the rate; provided that only the
consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend Section 2.13(c) or to waive any
obligation of the Borrowers to pay interest at the rate set forth therein, (iii) postpone the
scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest
thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment,
or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each
Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that the waiver of (or amendment to the terms
of) any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall not constitute a postponement of any date
scheduled for the payment of principal or interest, (iv) change Section 2.18(b) or (c) or the
provisions of the CAM Exchange in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments
required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of
this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the
number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any
determination or grant any consent hereunder without the written consent of each Lender, (vi)
release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the applicable
Guarantee and Security Agreements, without the written consent of each Lender or (vii) release all
or substantially all of the Collateral from the Lien of the Collateral Documents, without the
written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall
amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing
Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent, the relevant Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove
any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder which does not require the consent of each affected
Lender (it being understood that any Commitments or Loans held or deemed held by any




-118-









 







Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent
of less than all affected Lenders).




          Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended (or
amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent
and the Borrowers (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to
permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest
and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents with the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Exposures and the accrued interest and fees in
respect thereof and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any
determination of the Required Lenders.




          In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be
amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Company and the Lenders providing
the Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term
Loans of any Class (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche
denominated in Dollars or, in the case of the Euro Tranche A Term Loan or Euro Tranche B Term Loan,
in Euros (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder; provided that (a) the aggregate
principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of
such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Rate for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be
higher than the Applicable Rate for such Refinanced Term Loans, (c) the Weighted Average Life to
Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to
Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of
nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment
of the Term Loans) and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be
substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans
than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for
covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term
Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.




          SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.




          (a) Each Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred
by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and their Affiliates, including the reasonable and
documented fees, charges and disbursements of a single counsel for the Arrangers and the
Administrative Agent (and, if necessary, one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and
regulatory counsel), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for
herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any
amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the relevant Issuing Bank in connection with the
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment
thereunder and (iii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the reasonable and documented fees,
charges and disbursements of a single counsel (and, if necessary, one local




-119-









 







counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and regulatory counsel), in connection with the
enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights
under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder,
including all such reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout,
restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.




          (b) Each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, each Issuing Bank
and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being
called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses,
including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of a single counsel for the
Indemnitees (and, if necessary, one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and one
additional counsel for each Indemnitee in the event of conflicts of interest), incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the
execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of
the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit
or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank to honor a demand
for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do
not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) to the extent relating to or
arising from any of the foregoing, any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials
on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any
Environmental Liability related in any way to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any
actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the
foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related
expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to
have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any
of its officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, agents or controlling Persons.




          (c) To the extent that any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the
Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Bank
or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the
time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid
amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage,
liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such.




          (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower
hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or




-120-









 







any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or
Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.




          (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than fifteen (15) days after
written demand therefor; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall promptly
refund any amount received under this Section 9.03 to the extent that there is a final judicial or
arbitral determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification rights with respect
to such payment pursuant to the express terms of this Section 9.03.




          SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns.




          (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 (including any
Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), 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 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. 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 (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that
issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this
Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks 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 Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior
written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:





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




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




     (C) the Issuing Banks; provided that no consent of any Issuing Bank shall be
required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan.




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




     (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s
Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning
Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the



-121-









 






Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 or, (x) in the case of a Term Loan
denominated in Dollars, $1,000,000 or (y) in the case of a Term Loan denominated in euro,
€1,000,000, in each case, unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise
consent, provided that contemporaneous assignments to a Person and its Affiliates
and Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting the minimum assignment amount
requirements stated above so long as the amount assigned to any such Person described in
this proviso is not less than $500,000 in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars and not
less than €500,000 in the case of Loans denominated in euro, provided,
further, that no assignment (including to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund) shall be in an amount of less than €50,000 (or the Equivalent Amount thereof
in Dollars);




     (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, provided
that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part
of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments
or Loans;




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




     (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.



          For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:




          “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in
making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the
ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an
Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a
Lender.




          (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this
Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment
and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning
Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption,
be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the
effective date of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or
obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 (or Section 9.04 of
the Original Credit Agreement) shall be treated for purposes of




-122-









 







this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.




          (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a
register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and
principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms
hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks
and the Lenders shall 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 Company, any Issuing Bank 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 Assumption 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 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the
information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender
or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section
2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no
obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the
Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued
interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has
been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.




          (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Company, the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities
(a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it);
provided that (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 and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to
which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole
right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents;
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without
the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the
first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph
(c)(ii) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements or limitations therein,




-123-









 







including in Section 2.17(e)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its
interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law,
each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender,
provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a
Lender.




          (ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent
of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant
and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or
other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the
Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each
person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the participation in
question for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.




          (iii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15,
2.16 or 2.17 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.




          (iv) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation
any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 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.




          (v) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Lender will assign its rights
and obligations under this Agreement, or sell participations in its rights and/or obligations under
this Agreement, to any Person who is (i) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked
Persons List maintained by the U.S. Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control
(“OFAC”) and/or on any other similar list maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing
statute, executive order or regulation or (ii) either (A) included within the term “designated
national” as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515 or (B) designated
under Sections 1(a), 1(b), 1(c) or 1(d) of Executive Order No. 13224, 66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (published
September 25, 2001) or similarly designated under any related enabling legislation or any other
similar executive orders.




          SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan
Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection
with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been
relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan
Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any
investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any
Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any
Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is




-124-









 








outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of
Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and
effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the
Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the
termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.




          SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall
constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.
This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees
payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to
the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or
written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement
shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the
Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an
executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.




          SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in
a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.




          SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each
Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final and in whatever currency denominated) at any time held and
other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account
of any Borrower against any of and all the Obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing
under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have
made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured;
provided that, in the case of any deposits or other obligations for the credit or the
account of any Foreign Subsidiary, such setoff may only be against any Obligations of Foreign
Subsidiaries. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. Notwithstanding anything
herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, in no event shall the assets of any Foreign
Subsidiary that is not a U.S. Loan Party constitute collateral security for payment of the
Obligations of the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary, it being understood that (a) the Equity
Interests of any Foreign Subsidiary that is a first-tier Subsidiary of a U.S. Loan Party do not
constitute such an asset (if owned by a U.S. Loan Party) and (b) the provisions hereof shall not
limit, reduce or otherwise diminish in any respect the Borrowers’ obligations to make any mandatory
prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(ii).

          SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.




          (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State
of New York (without regard to the conflict of law principles thereof to the extent that the
application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be required thereby).




          (b) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and
its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New
York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any
judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York
State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees
that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in
other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. The foregoing
shall not affect any right that any party hereto may otherwise have to bring any action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement against any other party or its properties in the courts of
any jurisdiction.




          (c) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest
extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to
the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the
parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an
inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.




          (d) Each party to this Agreement (including the Euro Borrower) irrevocably consents to service
of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. The Euro Borrower irrevocably
designates and appoints the Company, as its authorized agent, to accept and acknowledge on its
behalf, service of any and all process which may be served in any suit, action or proceeding of the
nature referred to in Section 9.09(b) in any federal or New York State court sitting in New York
City. The Company hereby represents, warrants and confirms that the Company has agreed to accept
such appointment. Said designation and appointment shall be irrevocable by the Euro Borrower until
all Loans, all reimbursement obligations, interest thereon and all other amounts payable by the
Euro Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full in
accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof. The Euro Borrower hereby consents to process
being served in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 9.09(b) in any
federal or New York State court sitting in New York City by service of process upon the Company as
provided in this Section 9.09(d); provided that, to the extent lawful and possible, notice
of said service upon such agent shall be mailed by registered or certified air mail, postage
prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Company and (if applicable to) the Euro Borrower to the
address of which the Euro Borrower shall have given written notice to the Administrative Agent
(with a copy thereof to the Company). The Euro Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, all claim of error by reason




-126-









 







of any such service in such manner and agrees that such service shall be deemed in every
respect effective service of process upon the Euro Borrower in any such suit, action or proceeding
and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be taken and held to be valid and personal
service upon and personal delivery to the Euro Borrower. To the extent the Euro Borrower has or
hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process
(whether from service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of a
judgment, execution or otherwise), the Euro Borrower hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in
respect of its obligations under the Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner
permitted by law.




          SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).
EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION,
SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE
BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.




          SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for
convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction
of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.




          SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders
agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, partners, members,
employees, managers, administrators, trustees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and
other advisors solely for the purpose of, or otherwise directly in connection with this Agreement
(it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential
pursuant to the terms hereof), (b) to the extent requested or required by any Governmental
Authority or by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any representative thereof,
(c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal
process (provided, however, that, to the extent practicable and permitted by law,
the Company has been notified prior to such disclosure so that the Company may seek, at the
Company’s sole expense, a protective order or other appropriate remedy), (d) to any other party to
this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action
or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights
hereunder or thereunder (provided, however, to the extent practicable and permitted
by law, the Company is notified prior to such disclosure so that the Company may




-127-









 







seek, at the Company’s sole expense, a protective order or other appropriate remedy), (f)
subject to an agreement for the benefit of the Borrowers containing provisions at least as
restrictive as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee or any prospective assignee of any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement (and to any Participant or prospective Participant in
any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement) or (ii) any direct or indirect actual or
prospective party (or its managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers,
employees, agents, advisors and other representatives) to any swap or derivative or similar
transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to any Borrower and its obligations,
this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) with the consent of the Company or (h) to any ratings
agency or the CUSIP Bureau or any similar organization or to the extent such Information (i)
becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or, to the knowledge
of such disclosing person, as a result of a breach of a confidentiality agreement with any other
Person or (ii) that is or becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any
Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company not in violation of any
obligation of confidentiality. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all
information received from the Company relating to the Company or its business, other than any such
information that is publicly available (other than as a result of a breach of this Section) to the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender prior to disclosure by the Company.




          EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE COMPANY, THE OTHER
LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS
THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED CUSTOMARY PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION
INTENDED TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND THAT IT
WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH CUSTOMARY PROCEDURES AND
APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NOTHING IN THE FOREGOING SHALL (I)
PREVENT ANY LENDER FROM DISCLOSING INFORMATION TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING
PARAGRAPH OR (II) DIMINISH THE OBLIGATION OF THE COMPANY TO IDENTIFY INFORMATION THAT MAY BE
PROVIDED TO PUBLIC LENDERS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FINAL PARAGRAPH OF SECTION 5.01.




          SECTION 9.13. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot
Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby
notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain,
verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name
and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such
Loan Party in accordance with the Act.




          SECTION 9.14. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any
Loan Document, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees,
charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan





-128-









 







under applicable Law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate
(the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by
the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable Law, the rate of interest payable in
respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be
limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have
been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this
Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other
Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated
amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of
repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.




          SECTION 9.15. No Fiduciary Duty. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by
this Agreement, the Borrowers acknowledge and agree, and acknowledge the other Loan Parties’
understanding, that (i) each transaction contemplated by this Agreement is an arm’s-length
commercial transaction, between the Loan Parties, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders, on the other hand, (ii) in connection with each such transaction and the process
leading thereto, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will act solely as principals and not as
agents or fiduciaries of the Loan Parties or any of their stockholders, affiliates, creditors,
employees or any other party, (iii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender will assume an
advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or any of its Affiliates with respect
to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of
whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender has advised or is currently advising any Loan Party
on other matters) and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender will have any obligation to
any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated in this
Agreement except the obligations expressly set forth herein, (iv) the Administrative Agent and each
Lender may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from
those of the Loan Parties and their affiliates, and (v) neither the Administrative Agent nor any
Lender has provided or will provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to
any of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Loan Parties have consulted and will consult
their own legal, accounting, regulatory, and tax advisors to the extent it deems appropriate. The
matters set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents reflect an arm’s-length commercial
transaction between the Loan Parties, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, on the other hand. The Borrowers agree that the Loan Parties shall not assert any claims
that any Loan Party may have against the Administrative Agent or any Lender based on any breach or
alleged breach of fiduciary duty.
