Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Borrowings. The Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Borrowings at any Determination Date thereof which falls during the Negotiation Period shall be based upon the then most recently available quote of the Credit Default
Swap Spread. If no such alternative method is agreed upon during the Negotiation Period, the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Borrowings at any Determination Date subsequent to the end of the Negotiation Period shall be a rate per annum equal to the
Maximum Applicable Margin currently in effect.

(iii) upon consummation of the Redomestication Transactions, the Holdings Guaranty, and (iv) any Subsidiary Guaranties in effect from time to time.

 5 







 
(either express or implied) by S&P and Moody’s on the non-credit enhanced senior unsecured long-term debt of the Borrower supported by guaranties of
Holdings. For purposes of determining the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, Minimum Applicable Margin and Maximum Applicable Margin as provided herein, if such ratings differ (i) by one rating, the higher rating will apply, (ii) by two
ratings, the rating which falls between the two ratings will apply, or (iii) by more than two ratings the rating that is one level above the lower of the two ratings will apply. If only one such rating is issued by S&P or Moody’s, such
rating will apply. The Borrower shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent of any changes to such ratings, within three (3) Business Days thereof, and any change to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, Minimum Applicable Margin, and
Maximum Applicable Margin shall be effective on the date of the relevant change. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Borrower shall at any time fail to have in effect at least one such rating on the Borrower’s such non-credit enhanced senior
unsecured long-term debt, the Borrower shall seek and obtain (if not already in effect), within thirty (30) days after such rating first ceases to be in effect, a corporate credit rating or a bank loan rating from Moody’s and/or S&P
(or if neither Moody’s nor S&P issues such types of ratings or ratings comparable thereto, from another nationally recognized rating agency approved by each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), and the Applicable Commitment Fee
Rate, Minimum Applicable Margin, and Maximum Applicable Margin in effect prior to the issuance of such corporate credit rating or bank loan rating shall be the same as the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, Minimum Applicable Margin, and Maximum
Applicable Margin, as the case may be, in effect at the time such senior unsecured long-term debt rating ceases to be in effect. 
 “Currency Rate Protection Agreement” means any foreign currency exchange and future agreements, arrangements and options designed to protect against fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

to comply with any of its funding obligations under this Agreement or has made a public statement to the effect that it does not intend to comply with its funding obligations under this Agreement, (c) failed, within three Business Days after
request by the Administrative Agent, to confirm that it will comply with the terms of this Agreement relating to its obligations to fund prospective Loans, (d) otherwise failed to pay over to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender any
other amount required to be paid by it hereunder within three Business Days of the date when due, unless the subject of a good faith dispute, or (e) become or is insolvent.

three-month period during such Interest Period.

(i) $1,000,000, and (ii) fifteen percent (15%) of the net income (before discontinued operations and income or loss resulting from extraordinary items and excluding any loss or gain resulting from the early extinguishment of
Indebtedness) for the Consolidated Group, all as determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP during such fiscal year of the Borrower, or, after the Redomestication Effective Date, Holdings. The Borrower may elect to treat any
Subsidiary as a SPV (provided such Subsidiary would otherwise qualify as such), and may rescind any such prior election, by giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent specifying the name of such Subsidiary or SPV, as the case may be,
and the effective date of such election, which shall be a date within sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given. The election to treat a particular Person as a SPV may only be made once.

corresponding change in share ownership of Holdings. 
 “Subsidiary” means, for any Person, any other Person (other than,
except in the context of Section 6.6(a), a SPV) of which more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding stock or comparable equity interests having ordinary voting power for the election of the board of directors of such corporation, any
managers of such limited liability company or similar governing body (irrespective of whether or not at the time stock or other equity interests of any other class or classes of such corporation or other entity shall have or might have voting power
by reason of the happening of any contingency), is at the time directly or indirectly owned by such former Person or by one or more of its Subsidiaries. Upon consummation of the Redomestication Transactions, the Borrower and all Subsidiaries of the
Borrower immediately prior to such consummation shall become Subsidiaries of Holdings. 
 “Subsidiary Debt Basket Amount”
has the meaning ascribed to such term in Section 6.12(i). 
 “Subsidiary Guaranty” means any Guaranty of any Subsidiary
delivered pursuant to Section 6.12(j). 
 “Taxes” has the meaning set forth in Section 5.10. 
 “Term Credit Agreement” means the Term Credit Agreement dated as of March 13, 2008, among the Borrower, the lenders that are
parties thereto, and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent for such lenders (as the same may be amended, supplemented and restated from time to time). 
 “Total Assets” means, as of any date of determination, the aggregate book value of the assets of the Consolidated Group determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP as of such date.

nonforfeitable accrued benefits under such Plan (determined on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in the most 

  

 19 







 
recent actuarial valuation for such Plan) exceeds the fair market value of all Plan assets allocable to such benefits, determined as of the then most recent
valuation date for such Plan, but only to the extent that such excess represents a potential liability of the Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group to the PBGC or such Plan. 
 “Withdrawal Liability” shall mean liability to a Multiemployer Plan as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from such
Multiemployer Plan, as such terms are defined in Part I of Subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA.

 ARTICLE 2. THE CREDIT FACILITIES. 
 Section 2.1. Commitments for Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make one
or more loans (each a “Revolving Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time prior to the Commitment Termination Date on a revolving basis in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding an amount equal to its Commitment,
subject to any reductions thereof pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that no Lender shall be required to make any Revolving Loan if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the aggregate principal amount of the
Revolving Loans of all Lenders would thereby exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment Amount then in effect; or (ii) the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Lender would thereby exceed its Commitment then in effect. Each Borrowing of Revolving
Loans shall be made ratably from the Lenders in proportion to their respective Percentages. Revolving Loans of each Lender may be repaid, in whole or in part, and all or any portion of the principal amounts thereof reborrowed, before the Commitment
Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof. 
 Section 2.2. Types of Revolving Loans and Minimum Borrowing Amounts.
Borrowings of Revolving Loans may be outstanding as either Base Rate Loans or Adjusted LIBOR Loans, as selected by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3. Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall be in an amount of not less than $1,000,000 and
each Borrowing of Adjusted LIBOR Loans shall be in an amount of not less than $5,000,000 and in an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple. 
 Section 2.3. Manner of Borrowings; Continuations and Conversions of Borrowings. 
 (a) Notice of Revolving Loan
Borrowings. The Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent by no later than (i) 12:00 P.M. at least three (3) Business Days before the date on which the Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Eurodollar
Loans, and (ii) 12:00 P.M. on the date the Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of 

  

 20 







 
Base Rate Loans, in each case pursuant to a duly completed Borrowing Request substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.3 (each a “Borrowing
Request”) executed on behalf of Borrower by two of its officers. 
 (b) Notice of Continuation or Conversion of Outstanding
Borrowings. The Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Revolving Loan Borrowing or, subject to the minimum amount requirements in Section 2.2 for each outstanding Revolving Loan
Borrowing, a portion thereof, as follows: (i) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period specified by the Borrower or convert part or all of such
Borrowing into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or the Borrower may earlier convert part or all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans so long as it pays the breakage fees and funding losses provided in
Section 2.11; and (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, the Borrower may convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period specified by the Borrower on any Business Day, in each case pursuant to
notices of continuation or conversion as set forth below. The Borrower may select multiple Interest Periods for the Eurodollar Loans constituting any such particular Borrowing, provided that at no time shall the number of different Interest
Periods for outstanding Eurodollar Loans exceed twenty (20) (it being understood for such purposes that (x) Interest Periods of the same duration, but commencing on different dates, shall be counted as different Interest Periods, and
(y) all Interest Periods commencing on the same date and of the same duration shall be counted as one Interest Period regardless of the number of Borrowings or Loans involved. Notices of the continuation of such Eurodollar Loans for an
additional Interest Period or of the conversion of part or all of such Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans or of such Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans must be given by no later than 12:00 P.M. at least three (3) Business Days with
respect to Eurodollar Loans before the date of the requested continuation or conversion. 
 (c) Manner of Notice. The Borrower shall
give such notices concerning the advance, continuation, or conversion of a Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.3 by telephone or facsimile (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in
writing) pursuant to a Borrowing Request which shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation or conversion (which shall be a Business Day), the amount and currency of the requested Borrowing, whether such Borrowing is to be advanced,
continued, or converted, the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Borrower agrees that the Administrative
Agent may rely on any such telephonic or facsimile notice given by any Person it in good faith believes is an authorized representative of the Borrower without the necessity of independent investigation and that, if any such notice by telephone
conflicts with any written confirmation, such telephonic notice shall govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon. 
 (d) Notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic, telex or facsimile notice to each Lender of any notice received pursuant to this Section 2.3 relating to a Revolving Loan Borrowing. The
Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and each Lender by like means of the interest rate applicable to each Borrowing of 

  

 21 







 
Eurodollar Loans (but, if such notice is given by telephone, the Administrative Agent shall confirm such rate in writing) promptly after the Administrative
Agent has made such determination. 
 (e) Borrower’s Failure to Notify. If the Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to
Section 2.3(a) of the continuation or conversion of any outstanding principal amount of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans and has not notified the Administrative Agent by 12:00 P.M. at least three (3) Business Days before the last day of the
Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans that it intends to repay such Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested the continuation of such Borrowing as a Eurodollar Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month so
long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a result of such Borrowing but otherwise disregarding the conditions to Borrowings set forth in Section 4.2. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default, and upon notice thereof from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower each Eurodollar Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, convert into a Base Rate Loan. 
 (f) Conversion. If the Borrower shall elect to convert any particular Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.3 from one Type of Loan to the
other only in part, then, from and after the date on which such conversion shall be effective, such particular Borrowing shall, for all purposes of this Agreement (including, without limitation, for purposes of subsequent application of this
sentence) be deemed to instead constitute two Borrowings (each originally advanced on the same date as such particular Borrowing), one comprised of (subject to subsequent conversion in accordance with this Agreement) Eurodollar Loans in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the portion of such Borrowing so elected by the Borrower to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans and the second comprised of (subject to subsequent conversion in accordance with this Agreement) Base Rate Loans in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the portion of such particular Borrowing so elected by the Borrower to be comprised of Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower shall elect to have multiple Interest Periods apply to any such particular Borrowing comprised of
Eurodollar Loans, then, from and after the date such multiple Interest Periods commence, such particular Borrowing shall, for all purposes of this Agreement (including, without limitation, for purposes of subsequent application of this sentence), be
deemed to constitute a number of separate Borrowings (each originally commencing on the same date as such particular Borrowing) equal to the number of, and corresponding to, the different Interest Periods so selected, each such deemed separate
Borrowing corresponding to a particular selected Interest Period comprised of (subject to subsequent conversion in accordance with this Agreement) Eurodollar Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the portion of such particular Borrowing so
elected by the Borrower to have such Interest Period. This Section 2.3(f) shall be applied appropriately in the event that the Borrower shall make the elections described in the two preceding sentences at the same time with respect to the same
particular Borrowing. 
 Section 2.4. Interest Periods. As provided in Section 2.3, at the time of each request for a Borrowing
of Eurodollar Loans, or for the continuation or conversion of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower shall select the Interest Period(s) to be applicable to such Loans from among the available options, subject to the limitations in
Section 2.3; provided, however, that: 
 (i) the Borrower may not select an Interest Period that extends beyond
the Commitment Termination Date or, if later, the Final Maturity Date; 
  

 22 







 (ii) whenever the last day of any Interest Period would otherwise be a day that is not a
Business Day, the last day of such Interest Period shall either be (i) extended to the next succeeding Business Day, or (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Loans only, reduced to the immediately preceding Business Day if the next succeeding
Business Day is in the next calendar month; and 
 (iii) for purposes of determining an Interest Period, a month means a
period starting on one day in a calendar month and ending on the numerically corresponding day in the next calendar month; provided, however, that if there is no such numerically corresponding day in the month in which an Interest Period is
to end or if an Interest Period begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month, then in the case of Eurodollar Loans only, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month in which such Interest Period is to end.

 Section 2.5. Funding of Loans. 
 (a) Disbursement of Loans. Not later than 12:00 P.M. with respect to Eurodollar Loans, and 3:00 P.M. with respect to Base Rate Loans, on the date of any requested advance of a new Borrowing of Loans, each Lender, subject to all other
provisions hereof, shall make available for the account of its applicable Lending Office its Loan comprising its portion of such Borrowing in funds immediately available for the benefit of the Administrative Agent in the applicable Administrative
Agent’s Account and according to the payment instructions of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each such Borrowing available in immediately available funds to the Borrower (or as directed in writing
by the Borrower) on such date. Acceptance by the Borrower of any late amount shall not be deemed a waiver by the Borrower of any rights it may have against any Lender making funds available after the time prescribed above. No Lender shall be
responsible to the Borrower for any failure by another Lender to fund its portion of a Borrowing, and no such failure by a Lender shall relieve any other Lender from its obligation, if any, to fund its portion of a Borrowing. 
 (b) Administrative Agent Reliance on Lender Funding. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender prior to the time at
which such Lender is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Lender does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such
Lender has made such payment when due and in reliance upon such assumption may (but shall not be required to) make available to the Borrower the proceeds of the Loan to be made by such Lender and, if any Lender has not in fact made such payment to
the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent the amount made available to the Borrower attributable to such Lender together with interest thereon for each day during the period commencing on the date such
amount was made 

  

 23 







 
available to the Borrower and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to the
Administrative Agent’s cost of funds for such amount. If such amount is not received from such Lender by the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand, the Borrower will, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of the Loan
attributable to such Lender with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan, but the Borrower will in no event be liable to pay any amounts otherwise due pursuant to Section 2.11 in respect
of such repayment. Nothing in this subsection shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from any obligation to fund any Loans hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender
hereunder. 
 Section 2.6. Applicable Interest Rates. 
 (a) Base Rate Loans. Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 365-day year or 366-day year, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed excluding the date of repayment) on the unpaid
principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is made until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) or conversion to a Eurodollar Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the Highest Lawful Rate, or (ii) the sum of
the Alternate Base Rate from time to time in effect plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Borrowings. The Borrower agrees to pay such interest on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and at maturity (whether by acceleration or
otherwise). 
 (b) Eurodollar Loans. Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days
elapsed, excluding the date of repayment) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is made until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) or until conversion to a Base Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the lesser
of (i) the Highest Lawful Rate, or (ii) the sum of Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Borrowings. The Borrower agrees to pay such interest on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and at maturity (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) or conversion to a Base Rate Loan. 
 (c) Rate Determinations. The Administrative Agent shall determine
each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder insofar as such interest rate involves a determination of the Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBOR, LIBOR Rate, Credit Default Swap Spread, Minimum Applicable Margin, or Maximum Applicable Margin,
or any applicable default rate pursuant to Section 2.7, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding except in the case of the Administrative Agent’s manifest error or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
give notice to the Borrower and each Lender of each determination of Adjusted LIBOR and the Credit Default Swap Spread, with respect to each Eurodollar Loan. 
 Section 2.7. Default Rate. If any payment of principal on any Loan is not made when due after the expiration of the grace period therefor provided in Section 7.1(a) (whether by acceleration or otherwise),
such Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a year of 360, 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and actual days elapsed) after any such grace period expires until such principal then due is paid in full, which the Borrower agrees to pay on
demand, at a rate per annum equal to: 
 (a) for any Base Rate Loan, the lesser of (i) the Highest Lawful Rate, or (ii) the sum of
(x) two percent (2%) per annum, plus (y) the rate of interest in effect on such Base Rate Loan as provided in Section 2.6(a); and 
  

 24 







 (b) for any Eurodollar Loan, the lesser of (i) the Highest Lawful Rate, or (ii) the sum of
(x) two percent (2%) per annum, plus (y) the rate of interest in effect on such Eurodollar Loan as provided in Section 2.6(b) at the time of such default until the end of the Interest Period for such Loan and, thereafter,
at a rate per annum pursuant to this clause (y) equal to the rate of interest provided in Section 2.6(a) (but not less than the rate in effect as provided in Section 2.6(a) at the time such payment was due). 
 It is the intention of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to conform strictly to usury laws applicable to them. Accordingly, if the transactions
contemplated hereby or any Loan or other Obligation would be usurious as to any of the Lenders under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of New York or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be
mandatorily applicable to such Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Credit Document), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Notes or any other Credit
Document, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under laws applicable to such Lender that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by such Lender under this Agreement, the
Notes or any other Credit Document or otherwise shall under no circumstances exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, and any excess shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of the Loans (or, if the principal amount of the Loans shall have
been paid in full, refunded by such Lender to the Borrower); and (ii) in the event that the maturity of the Loans is accelerated by reason of an election of the holder or holders thereof resulting from any Event of Default hereunder or
otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under laws applicable to such Lender may never include more than the Highest Lawful Rate, and excess interest, if any, provided for
in this Agreement, the Notes, any other Credit Document or otherwise shall be automatically canceled by such Lender as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount
of the Loans (or if the principal amount of the Loans shall have been paid in full, refunded by such Lender to the Borrower). To the extent that the Texas Finance Code, Chapters 302 and 303, are relevant to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
for the purpose of determining the Highest Lawful Rate, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby elect to determine the applicable rate ceiling under such Chapter by the indicated (weekly) rate ceiling from time to time in effect, subject to
their right subsequently to change such method in accordance with applicable law. In the event the Loans are paid in full by the Borrower prior to the full stated term of the Loans and the interest received from the actual period of the existence of
the Loans exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the Lenders shall refund to the Borrower the amount of the excess or shall credit the amount of the excess against amounts owing under the Loans and none of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall be
subject to any of the penalties provided by law for contracting for, taking, reserving, charging or receiving interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. The Texas Finance Code, Chapter 346, which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts
and revolving tri-party accounts, shall not apply to this Agreement or the Loans. 
  

 25 







 Section 2.8. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 
 (a) Repayment of Loans. The Borrower hereby promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, on the Commitment
Termination Date, the unpaid amount of each Revolving Loan then outstanding. 
 (b) Record of Loans by Lenders. Each Lender shall
maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and accrued interest payable and paid
to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (c) Record of Loans by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall maintain
accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or accrued interest due and payable or to become due and payable
from the 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. 
 (d) Evidence of Obligations. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be
prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; 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 the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (e) Notes. The Revolving
Loans outstanding to the Borrower from each Lender shall, at the written request of such Lender, be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower payable to such Lender in the form of Exhibit 2.8A (Master Note) (each a
“Note”). The Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Lender requesting a Note as aforesaid, an original of each such Note, appropriately completed, to evidence the respective Loans
made by such Lender hereunder, within ten (10) Business Days after the Borrower receives a written request therefor. 
 (f) Recording
of Loans and Payments on Notes. Each holder of a Note shall record on its books and records or on a schedule to its appropriate Note (and prior to any transfer of its Notes shall endorse thereon or on schedules forming a part thereof appropriate
notations to evidence) the amount of each Loan outstanding from it to the Borrower, all payments of principal and interest and the principal balance from time to time outstanding thereon, the type of such Loan and, if a Eurodollar Loan the Interest
Period and interest rate applicable thereto. Such record, whether shown on the books and records of a holder of a Note or on a schedule to its Note, shall be prima facie evidence as to all such matters; provided, however, that the
failure of any holder to record any of the foregoing or any error in any such record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay all Loans outstanding to it hereunder together with accrued interest thereon. At the
request of any holder of a Note and upon such holder tendering to the Borrower the Note to be replaced, the Borrower shall furnish a new Note to such holder to replace any outstanding Note and at such time the first notation appearing on the
schedule on the reverse side of, or attached to, such new Note shall set forth the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans, if any, then outstanding thereon. 
  

 26 







 Section 2.9. Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the privilege of prepaying any Base
Rate Loans without premium or penalty at any time in whole or at any time and from time to time in part (but, if in part, then in an amount which is equal to or greater than $1,000,000); provided, however, that the Borrower shall have given
notice of such prepayment to the Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 P.M. on the date of such prepayment. The Borrower shall have the privilege of prepaying any Eurodollar Borrowing (a) without premium or penalty in whole or in part (but,
if in part, then in an amount which is equal to or greater than the Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 and in an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple or such smaller amount as needed to prepay a particular Borrowing in full) only on the last
Business Day of an Interest Period for such Borrowing, and (b) at any other time without premium or penalty except for the breakage fees and funding losses that are required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.11; provided, however,
that the Borrower shall have given notice of such prepayment to the Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 P.M. at least three (3) Business Days before the last Business Day of such Interest Period or the proposed prepayment date. Any such
prepayments shall be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of such prepayment. Unless otherwise specified in writing by the Borrower, optional prepayments shall be applied
first, to the Revolving Loans and second to any other Obligations then outstanding. 
 Section 2.10. Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.
In the event and on each occasion that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitment Amount then in effect, then the Borrower shall promptly prepay Revolving Loans in an aggregate amount
sufficient to eliminate such excess. Immediately upon determining the need to make any such prepayment, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such required prepayment and of the identity of the particular Revolving Loans being
prepaid. If the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Administrative Agent has determined that any prepayment is required under this Section 2.10, the Borrower shall make such prepayment no later than the second Business Day
following such notice. Any mandatory prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant hereto shall not be limited by the notice provision for prepayments set forth in Section 2.9. Each such prepayment shall be accompanied by a payment of all accrued and
unpaid interest on the Loans prepaid and any applicable breakage fees and funding losses pursuant to Section 2.11. 
 Section 2.11.
Breakage Fees. If any Lender incurs any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits and other indirect or consequential damages) by reason of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender
to fund or maintain any Eurodollar Loan as a result of any of the following events other than any such occurrence as a result of a change of circumstance described in Sections 8.1 or 8.2: 
 (a) any payment, prepayment or conversion of any such Loan on a date other than the last day of its Interest Period (whether by acceleration, mandatory
prepayment or otherwise); 
  

 27 







 (b) any failure to make a principal payment of any such Loan on the due date therefor; or 
 (c) any failure by the Borrower to borrow, continue or prepay, or convert to, any such Loan on the date specified in a notice given pursuant to
Section 2.3 (other than by reason of a default of such Lender), 
 then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amount as will reimburse such Lender
for such loss, cost or expense. If any Lender makes such a claim for compensation, it shall provide to the Borrower a certificate executed by an officer of such Lender setting forth the amount of such loss, cost or expense in reasonable detail
(including an explanation of the basis for and the computation of such loss, cost or expense) no later than ninety (90) days after the event giving rise to the claim for compensation, and the amounts shown on such certificate shall be prima
facie evidence of such Lender’s entitlement thereto. Within ten (10) days of receipt of such certificate, the Borrower shall pay directly to such Lender such amount as will compensate such Lender for such loss, cost or expense as provided
herein, unless such Lender has failed to timely give notice to the Borrower of such claim for compensation as provided herein, in which event the Borrower shall not have any obligation to pay such claim. 
 Section 2.12. Commitment Terminations. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon three (3) Business
Days’ prior and irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate or reduce the Commitments without premium or penalty, in whole or in part, with any partial reduction (i) to be in an amount not less than $5,000,000 as
determined by the Borrower and in integral multiples of $5,000,000 and (ii) as to the Commitments to be allocated ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments; provided, that the Revolving Credit Commitment
Amount may not be reduced to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans, after giving effect to payments on such proposed termination or reduction date. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt
notice to each Lender of any such termination or reduction of the Commitments. Any termination of Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.12 is permanent and may not be reinstated. 
 Section 2.13. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then
the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the
unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.1(a); 
 (b) the Commitment and Revolving Credit
Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 10.11),
provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;
and 
  

 28 







 (c) for avoidance of doubt, each Loan Party shall retain and reserve its other rights and remedies
respecting each Defaulting Lender. 
 Section 2.14. Markit Data. 
 (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”) in any capacity, whether in an individual capacity or as Administrative Agent or Lender or
otherwise, shall receive data from Markit with respect to the Credit Default Swap Spread and agrees in such capacity to provide to those Persons identified by each Lender for such purpose (each a “Designated User”) (and if JPMCB is
not the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent) such data, including any accompanying written notice or supporting information from Markit (together, the “Markit Data”), via email, log-in or other means of communication at
the discretion of JPMCB. JPMCB shall have all of the rights benefits and protections of the Administrative Agent provided for in Article 9 when acting in such capacity with respect to the provision of any Markit Data. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, any Designated User shall only access and use the Markit Data for the purposes as specified in this Agreement on behalf of
the respective Lender or, if applicable, the Administrative Agent and shall be required by such Lender, and if applicable, the Administrative Agent, to comply with the terms of this Section. Each Lender, and if applicable, the Administrative Agent,
hereby agrees, without limiting Markit’s or JPMCB’s other rights and remedies, that it is responsible for and liable for any breach of the provisions of this Section by its respective Designated Users. 
 (b) Each Lender acknowledges that all copyright, database rights, trademarks, patents, rights of privacy or publicity and other proprietary or
intellectual property rights (including all models, software, data and any materials) comprised in all or any of the Markit Data, or their provision, and all enhancements, modifications or additional services thereto, are and will be the exclusive
property of Markit. Except as provided for under this Agreement, each Lender agrees that it will not use the same (including copying, reverse engineering or, except as otherwise required by law or regulation, disclosing it to any Person, for any
purpose whatsoever) and will not remove or deface any trademarks associated with the Markit Data. Each Lender acknowledges that the Markit Data was developed, compiled, prepared, revised, selected and arranged by Markit and others (including certain
information sources (each a “Data Provider”)) through the application of substantial time, effort and money, and constitute valuable intellectual property and trade secrets of Markit. Each Lender shall make reasonable efforts to
comply, at Markit’s expense, with all reasonable written requests made by JPMCB (upon Markit’s written requests to JPMCB) to protect any contractual, statutory and common law rights in the Markit Data. 
 (c) Each Lender acknowledges that none of Markit, JPMCB, their respective affiliates or any Data Provider makes any warranty, express or implied as to
the accuracy or completeness of the Markit Data or as to the results to be attained by any Lender or others from the use of the Markit Data. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that there are no express or implied warranties of title, merchantability or
fitness for a particular purpose or use, and that it has not relied upon any warranty, guaranty or representation made by Markit, JPMCB, their respective affiliates or any Data Provider. 
  

 29 







 (d) Neither Markit and its affiliates (except in the event of fraud, gross negligence or willful
misconduct on part of Markit or its affiliates) nor any Data Provider nor JPMCB and its affiliates shall in any way be liable to any Lender or any client of any Lender for any inaccuracies, errors or omissions, regardless of cause, in the Markit
Data provided hereunder or for any damages (whether direct or indirect) resulting therefrom. Without limiting the foregoing, Markit and JPMCB shall have no liability whatsoever to any Lender or client of a Lender, whether in contract (including
under an indemnity), in tort (including negligence), under a warranty, under statute or otherwise, in respect of any loss or damage suffere by such Lender or client as a result of or in connection with any opinions, recommendations, forecasts,
judgments, or any other conclusions, or any course of action determined by such Lender or any client of such Lender based on the Markit Data. To the extent permitted by law, neither Markit nor JPMCB nor their respective affiliates shall be liable
for any loss of profits or revenue or any indirect or consequential losses or damages whatsoever incurred, whether or not it has been advised in advance of the possibility of any such loss. 
 (e) Each Lender acknowledges that it or its employees may, in the course of performing such Lender’s responsibilities under this Agreement, be
exposed to or acquire information which is proprietary or confidential to Markit or to third parties to whom Markit owes a duty of confidentiality. Markit’s and such third parties’ confidential information means the Markit Data and any
related materials provided by Markit through JPMCB to each Lender and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Each Lender agrees to hold Markit’s and such third parties’ confidential information in confidence to the same extent and
in the same manner as such Lender is required to the hold the Borrower’s information confidential pursuant to Section 10.15 hereof and agrees that it will follow procedures which are intended to put any transferee of such confidential
information on notice that such confidential information may not be used for any other purposes except as contemplated herein. It is understood and agreed that in the event of a breach of confidentiality, damages may not be an adequate remedy and
that JPMCB shall be entitled to injunctive relief to restrain such breach, threatened or actual. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are entitled to disclose and use the Markit Data in the normal
course of their business as it relates to the Agreement, including but not limited to disclosing such information to ratings agencies, league table providers and prospective assignees and participants. 
 (f) The Borrower acknowledges that each of JPMCB and the other Lenders from time to time may conduct business with and may be a shareholder of Markit and
that each of JPMCB or the other Lenders may have from time to time the right to appoint one or more directors to the Board of Directors of Markit. 
 ARTICLE 3. FEES AND PAYMENTS. 
 Section 3.1. Fees. 
 (a) Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at
the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender (but subject to Section 2.13) 

  

 30 







 
during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be
payable in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on December 31, 2008, and on the Commitment Termination Date. All commitment 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). 
 (b) Administrative
Agent Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent and to the Joint Lead Arrangers the fees from time to time agreed to by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and Joint Lead Arrangers, as the case may be. 
 (c) Payment of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for
distribution, in the case of commitment fees, to the Lenders. 
 Section 3.2. Place and Application of Payments. 
 (a) All payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and all fees and other amounts payable by the Borrower under the Credit Documents shall be made
by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, without defense, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, for the benefit of the Lenders entitled to such payments, in immediately available funds on the due date thereof, no later
than 2:00 P.M. in the applicable Administrative Agent’s Account or such other location as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing to the Borrower. Any payments received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower after the time
specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent will, on the same day each payment is received or deemed to have been received in accordance with this Section 3.2,
cause to be distributed like funds to each Lender owed an Obligation for which such payment was received, pro rata based on the respective amounts of such type of Obligation then owing to each Lender (but subject to Section 2.13).

 (b) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent under any Credit Document is insufficient to pay in full all amounts then due and
payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Credit Documents, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the order set forth in Section 7.7 (and
subject to Section 2.13). In calculating the amount of Obligations owing each Lender other than for principal and interest on Loans and fees under Section 3.1, the Administrative Agent shall only be required to include such other
Obligations that Lenders have certified to the Administrative Agent in writing are due to such Lenders. 
 Section 3.3. Withholding
Taxes. 
 (a) Payments Free of Withholding. Except as otherwise required by law and subject to Section 3.3(b), each payment by
the Borrower or any other Loan Party to any Lender or Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be made without withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes imposed by or within the jurisdiction


  

 31 







 
in which the Borrower or such Loan Party is organized, any jurisdiction from which the Borrower or such Loan Party makes any payment, or (in each case) any
political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, the following taxes: 
 (i) taxes imposed on, based upon, or measured by such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s net income or profits, and branch profits, franchise and similar taxes imposed on it; 
 (ii) taxes imposed on such Lender or the Administrative Agent as a result of a present or former connection between the taxing
jurisdiction and such Lender or Administrative Agent, or any affiliate thereof, as the case may be, other than a connection resulting solely from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; 
 (iii) taxes imposed as a result of the transfer by such Lender or the Administrative Agent of its interest in this Agreement or any other
Credit Document or a designation by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (other than pursuant to Section 8.3(c)) of a new Lending Office (other than taxes imposed as a result of any change in treaty, law or regulation after such transfer of
such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s interest in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or designation of a new Lending Office); 
 (iv) taxes imposed by the United States of America (or any political subdivision thereof or tax authority therein) upon a Lender or the Administrative Agent organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the
United States, except to the extent that such tax is imposed as a result of any change in applicable law, regulation or treaty (other than any addition of or change in any “anti-treaty shopping,” “limitation of benefits,” or
similar provision applicable to a treaty) after the date hereof, in the case of each Lender or the Administrative Agent originally a party hereto or, in the case of any Purchasing Lender (as defined in Section 10.10) or the Administrative
Agent, after the date on which it becomes a Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be; or 
 (v) taxes which
would not have been imposed but for (a) the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to provide (I) the applicable forms prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, as required pursuant to Section 3.3(b),
or (II) any other form, certification, documentation or proof which is reasonably requested by the Borrower, or (b) a determination by a taxing authority or a court of competent jurisdiction that a form, certification, documentation or other
proof provided by such Lender or the Administrative Agent to establish an exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge is false; 
 (all
such present or future taxes, excluding only the taxes described in the preceding clauses (i) through (v), being hereinafter referred to as “Indemnified Taxes”). If any such withholding is so required, the Borrower or such other Loan
Party shall make the withholding, pay the amount withheld to the appropriate governmental authority before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon and forthwith pay such additional amount as may be necessary to ensure that the 

  

 32 







 
net amount actually received by each Lender and the Administrative Agent is free and clear of such Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes on such
additional amount) and is equal to the amount that such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) would have received had withholding of any Indemnified Tax not been made. If the Borrower or any other Loan Party pays any Indemnified
Taxes, or any penalties or interest in connection therewith, it shall deliver official tax receipts evidencing the payment or certified copies thereof, or other evidence of payment if such tax receipts have not yet been received by the Borrower or
such other Loan Party (with such tax receipts to be delivered within fifteen (15) days after being actually received), to the Lender or the Administrative Agent on whose account such withholding was made (with a copy to the Administrative Agent
if not the recipient of the original) within fifteen (15) days of such payment. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender pays any Indemnified Taxes, or any penalties or interest in connection therewith, the Borrower shall reimburse the
Administrative Agent or such Lender for the payment on demand in the currency in which such payment was made. Such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall make written demand on the Borrower for reimbursement hereunder no later than ninety
(90) days after the earlier of (i) the date on which such Lender or the Administrative Agent makes payment of the Indemnified Taxes, penalties and interest, and (ii) the date on which the relevant taxing authority or other
governmental authority makes written demand upon such Lender or the Administrative Agent for payment of the Indemnified Taxes, penalties and interest. Any such demand shall describe in reasonable detail such Indemnified Taxes, penalties or interest,
including the amount thereof if then known to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be. In the event that such Lender or the Administrative Agent fails to give the Borrower timely notice as provided herein, the Borrower shall not
have any obligation to pay such claim for reimbursement. 
 (b) U.S. Withholding Tax Exemptions. Upon the written request of the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall submit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, promptly after such request, two duly
completed and signed copies of either Form W-8BEN or any successor form (entitling such Lender to a complete exemption from withholding under the Code on all amounts to be received by such Lender, including fees, pursuant to the Credit Documents) or
Form W-8ECI or any successor form (relating to all amounts to be received by such Lender, including fees, pursuant to the Credit Documents) of the United States Internal Revenue Service, and any other form of the United States Internal Revenue
Service reasonably necessary to accomplish exemption from withholding obligations or to facilitate the Administrative Agent’s performance under this Agreement. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Lender shall submit to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may be required under then-current United
States law or regulations to avoid United States withholding taxes on payments in respect of all amounts to be received by such Lender, including fees, pursuant to the Credit Documents. Upon the request of the Borrower, each Lender that is a United
States person shall submit to the Borrower a certificate to the effect that it is such a United States person and is exempt from information reporting under Section 6049 of the Code and backup withholding under Section 3406 of the Code.

  

 33 







 (c) Inability of Lender to Submit Forms. If any Lender determines in good faith, as a result of
any change in applicable law, regulation or treaty, or in any official application or interpretation thereof, that (i) it is unable to submit to the Borrower or Administrative Agent any form or certificate that such Lender is obligated to
submit pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 3.3, (ii) it is required to withdraw or cancel any such form or certificate previously submitted, or (iii) any such form or certificate otherwise becomes ineffective or
inaccurate, such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and Administrative Agent of such fact, and the Lender shall to that extent not be obligated to provide any such form or certificate and will be entitled to withdraw or cancel any affected
form or certificate, as applicable. 
 (d) Refund of Taxes. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent becomes aware that it has
received a refund of any Indemnified Tax or any tax referred to in Section 10.3 with respect to which the Borrower or any other Loan Party has paid any amount pursuant to this Section 3.3 or Section 10.3, such Lender or the
Administrative Agent shall pay the amount of such refund (including any interest received with respect thereto) to the Borrower or such other Loan Party within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof. A Lender or the Administrative Agent shall
provide, at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower, such assistance as the Borrower may reasonably request in order to obtain such a refund; provided, however, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall in any event be
required to disclose any information to the Borrower or such other Loan Party with respect to the overall tax position of the Administrative Agent or such Lender. 
 (e) Swiss Withholding Taxes. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.3, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) all withholding taxes that may be levied or imposed pursuant
to any existing or future laws or regulations of Switzerland or any political subdivision thereof in respect of any payments to be made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party at any time under the terms of this Agreement or any other Credit
Document shall constitute Indemnified Taxes for all purposes hereof (but excluding such taxes as provided in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (v) of Section 3.3(a)), and (ii) if any such taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrower or
such other Loan Party shall make the withholding, pay the amount withheld to the appropriate Governmental Authority before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon, and forthwith pay such additional amount to each Lender and the
Administrative Agent, as applicable, as may be necessary to insure that the net amount actually received by each Lender and the Administrative Agent is free and clear of such Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes on such additional amount)
and is equal to the amount that such Lender or the Administrative Agent would have received had withholding of any such Indemnified Taxes not been made. 
 ARTICLE 4. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.

 36 







 ARTICLE 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. 
 The Borrower represents and warrants to each Lender and the Administrative Agent as follows: 
 Section 5.1. Corporate Organization. Each of the Borrower, Holdings (at all times on and after the Redomestication Effective Date), and each other
material Member of the Consolidated Group: (i) is duly organized and existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; (ii) has all necessary organizational power and authority to own the property and assets
it uses in its business and otherwise to carry on its present business; and (iii) is duly licensed or qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business transacted by it or the nature of the property owned
or leased by it makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified or to be in good standing, as the case may be, would not have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.2. Power and Authority; Validity. Each of the Borrower and any other Loan Parties has the organizational power and authority to execute,
deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary company action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of such Credit Documents. Each of the Borrower and any
other Loan Parties has duly executed and delivered each Credit Document to which it is a party and each such Credit Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower or such Loan Party, as the case may be, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, subject as to enforcement only to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and equitable principles. 

Section 5.3. No Violation. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Credit Documents to
which it is a party nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions thereof, nor the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated herein or therein, will (i) contravene in any material respect any applicable provision of any law,
statute, rule or regulation, or any applicable order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach of any term, covenant, condition or other provision of, or constitute a
default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien other than any Permitted Lien upon any of the property or assets of the Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group under, the
terms of any material contractual obligation to which the Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group is a party or by which they or any of their properties or assets are bound or to which they may be subject, or (iii) violate or
conflict with any provision of the memorandum of association and articles of association, charter, articles or certificate of incorporation, partnership or limited liability company agreement, by-laws, or other applicable governance documents of the
Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group. 
  

 37 







 Section 5.4. Litigation. Except as may be described on Schedule 5.4, there are no actions,
suits, proceedings or counterclaims (including, without limitation, derivative or injunctive actions) pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against the Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group that are reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.5. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. 
 (a) Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall only be used to refinance amounts outstanding on the Effective Date under the Existing 364-Day
Revolver Facility, as a commercial paper backstop, for permitted investments and acquisitions, and for capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. 
 (b) Margin Stock. Neither the Borrower nor any other Member of the Consolidated Group is engaged in the business of extending credit for the
purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock. No proceeds of the Loans will be used for a purpose which violates Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. After application of the proceeds of the Loans and any
acquisitions permitted hereunder, less than 25% of the assets of each of the Borrower and the other Members of the Consolidated Group consists of “margin stock” (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System). 
 Section 5.6. Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any other Member of the Consolidated Group is an
“investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 Section 5.7. True and Complete Disclosure. All factual information (taken as a whole) furnished by the Borrower or any other Member of the
Consolidated Group in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with any Credit Document or the Confidential Information Memorandum or any transaction contemplated therein did not, as of the date such information was furnished
(or, if such information expressly related to a specific date, as of such specific date), contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein (taken as a whole), in light of the
circumstances under which such information was furnished, not misleading, except for such statements, if any, as have been updated, corrected, supplemented, superseded or modified pursuant to a written correction or supplement furnished to the
Lenders prior to the date of this Agreement. 
 Section 5.8. Financial Statements. The financial statements heretofore delivered to
the Lenders for the Borrower’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2007, and for the Borrower’s fiscal quarter and year-to-date period ending September 30, 2008, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis
consistent, except as otherwise noted therein, in accordance with GAAP, with the Borrower’s financial statements for the previous fiscal year. Such annual and quarterly financial statements fairly present in all material respects on a
consolidated basis the financial position of the Borrower as of the dates thereof, and the results of operations for the 

  

 38 







 
periods indicated, subject in the case of interim financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and omission of certain footnotes (as permitted
by the SEC). As of the Effective Date, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, considered as a whole, had no material contingent liabilities or material Indebtedness required under GAAP to be disclosed in a consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower that
were not included in the financial statements referred to in this Section 5.8 or disclosed in the notes thereto or in writing to the Administrative Agent (with a written request to the Administrative Agent to distribute such disclosure to the
Lenders) unless otherwise permitted under this Agreement. 
 Section 5.9. No Material Adverse Change. Except as may be described on
Schedule 5.9, since September 30, 2008 there has occurred no event or effect with respect to the business, assets, operations or condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as reflected in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with
the SEC for the quarter ended September 30, 2008, that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.10. Taxes. The Borrower and all other Members of the Consolidated Group have filed all material tax returns required to be filed, whether in the United States or in any foreign jurisdiction, and have paid all governmental
taxes, rates, assessments, fees, charges and levies (collectively, “Taxes”) shown to be due and payable on such returns or on any assessments made against the Borrower or such other Members of the Consolidated Group or any of their
properties (other than any such assessments, fees, charges or levies that are not more than ninety (90) days past due, or which can thereafter be paid without penalty, or which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and
for which reserves have been provided in conformity with GAAP, or which the failure to pay could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). 
 Section 5.11. Consents. On the Effective Date, all material consents and approvals of, and filings and registrations with, and all other actions of, all governmental agencies, authorities or instrumentalities
required to have been obtained or made by the Borrower in order to obtain the Loans hereunder have been or will have been obtained or made and are or will be in full force and effect. 
 Section 5.12. Insurance. The Borrower, Holdings (on and after the Redomestication Effective Date), and all other material Members of the
Consolidated Group maintain in effect, with responsible insurance companies, including captive insurance companies, or through self-insurance, insurance against any loss or damage to all insurable property and assets owned by it, which insurance is
of a character and in or in excess of such amounts as are customarily maintained by companies similarly situated and operating like property or assets (subject to self-insured retentions and deductibles), and insurance with respect to
employers’ and public and product liability risks (subject to self-insured retentions and deductibles). 
 Section 5.13. Intellectual
Property. The Borrower and all other Members of the Consolidated Group own or hold valid licenses to use all the patents, trademarks, permits, service marks, and trade names that are necessary to the operation of the business of the Borrower and
all other Members of the Consolidated Group as presently conducted, except where the failure to own, or hold valid licenses to use, such patents, trademarks, permits, service marks, and trade names could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

 Section 5.14. Ownership of Property. The Borrower and all other Members of the Consolidated Group
have good title to or a valid leasehold interest in all of their real property and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all of their other property, subject to no Liens except Permitted Liens, except where the failure to have such title
or leasehold interest in such property could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.15. Existing
Indebtedness. Schedule 5.15 contains a complete and accurate list of all Indebtedness outstanding as of the Effective Date, with respect to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, in each case in a principal amount of $30,000,000 (or, if
denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, the Dollar Equivalent of $30,000,000) or more (other than the Obligations hereunder and Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.12(b) through (j)) and permitted by Section 6.12(a), in each
case showing the aggregate principal amount thereof, the name of the respective borrower and any other entity which directly or indirectly guaranteed such Indebtedness, and the scheduled payments of such Indebtedness. 
 Section 5.16. Existing Liens. Schedule 5.16 contains a complete and accurate list of all Liens outstanding as of the Effective Date, with
respect to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries where the Indebtedness or other obligations secured by such Lien is in a principal amount of $30,000,000 (or, if denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, the Dollar Equivalent of $30,000,000) or
more (other than the Liens permitted by Section 6.11(b) through (r)), and permitted by Section 6.11(a), in each case showing the name of the Person whose assets are subject to such Lien, the aggregate principal amount of the Indebtedness
secured thereby, and a description of the Agreements or other instruments creating, granting, or otherwise giving rise to such Lien. 
 Section 5.17. Solvency. Each Loan Party is, and after giving effect to the Redomestication Transactions, the Holdings Guaranty, any other Guaranties given by any Loan Parties in respect of this Agreement, the Five-Year Revolver

 Section 5.18. Employee Benefit Plan. The Borrower and each other Member of the Consolidated Group and each of their respective ERISA Affiliates
are in compliance with all applicable provisions and requirements of ERISA and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, and have performed all their obligations under each
Employee Benefit Plan except for any such non-compliance or non-performance which could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments), the U.S. Internal Revenue
Service, any Employee Benefit Plan or any trust established under Title IV of ERISA has been or is expected to be incurred by the Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group or any of their ERISA Affiliates with respect to any Employee
Benefit Plan, except for any such liability which could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur which could

reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Plan has Unfunded Vested Liabilities which could reasonably be expected to result in a

such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, based on information available pursuant to Section 4221(e) of
ERISA, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower and each other Member of the Consolidated Group and each of their ERISA Affiliates have complied with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with
respect to each Multiemployer Plan and are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan, except for any such non-compliance which could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.19. OFAC. Neither the Borrower nor any other Member of the Consolidated
Group (i) is a person on the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons or subject to the limitations or prohibitions under any other U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control regulation or executive
order (a “Prohibited Person”), or (ii) will knowingly use any proceeds of the Loans, directly or indirectly, (a) to support activities in any country subject to a comprehensive sanctions program administered by the Office
of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) where such activities would be in violation of the sanctions program, or (b) to conduct business with a Prohibited Person or any individual or entity controlled by a Prohibited Person. 
 Section 5.20. Compliance with Certain Laws. The Borrower and each other Member of the Consolidated Group is in compliance, in all material
respects, with (i) the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or
executive order relating thereto as if such statute, regulations, legislation, or order applied in full to the Borrower and each other Member of the Consolidated Group, and (ii) the Uniting And Strengthening America By Providing Appropriate
Tools Required To Intercept And Obstruct Terrorism (USA Patriot Act of 2001) and its implementing regulations as if such statute and regulations applied in full to the Borrower and each other Member of the Consolidated Group. No part of the proceeds
of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to
obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

Redomestication Merger Agreement and Redomestication Schemes of Arrangement shall have been satisfied as of such time (other than any such conditions waived by the parties thereto where such waiver would not be adverse to the interests of the
Lenders in any material respects), (ii) such Redomestication Transactions shall have been consummated in accordance with the terms of the Redomestication Merger Agreement and Redomestication Schemes of Arrangement and in compliance, in all
material respects with all applicable laws,

from the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands), and (iii) such consummation of the Redomestication Transactions shall not have resulted in or caused to have occurred any Default or Event of Default, or any breach or default under the terms of the
Indentures, the Five-Year Revolver Agreement, the Term Credit Agreement, or any other indenture, credit or loan agreement, lease, or other financing agreement evidencing or governing any other Material Indebtedness, or other material contract or
agreement of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries the breach or default of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

times such properties and equipment are reasonably preserved and maintained, in each case with such exceptions as could not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that
nothing in this Section 6.2 shall prevent the Borrower, Holdings (on and after the Redomestication Effective Date), or any other material Members of the Consolidated Group from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any such properties
or equipment if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Borrower, Holdings (on and after the Redomestication Effective Date), or any other material Members of the Consolidated Group, as applicable, desirable in the conduct of its business.

 Section 6.3. Taxes. Each of the Borrower and the other Members of the Consolidated Group will duly pay and discharge all Taxes upon

appointment of a trustee therefor; (iii) the intention of the Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group to terminate or withdraw from any Plan if such termination or withdrawal would result in liability under Title IV of ERISA,
unless such termination or withdrawal could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (iv) the receipt by the Borrower or any other Members of the Consolidated Group of notice of the occurrence of any event that could
reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any liability (other than for benefits), fine or penalty to the Borrower or any other Members of the Consolidated Group, or any plan amendment that could reasonably be expected to increase the
contingent liability of the Borrower and any other Members of the Consolidated Group, taken as a whole, in either case in connection with any post-retirement benefit under a welfare plan (subject to ERISA), unless such event or amendment could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower will also promptly notify the Administrative Agent of (i) any material contributions to any Foreign Plan that have not been made by the required due date for such
contribution if such default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (ii) any Foreign Plan that is not funded to the extent required by the law of the jurisdiction whose law governs such Foreign Plan based on the
actuarial assumptions reasonably used at any time if such underfunding (together with any penalties likely to result) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) any material change anticipated to any Foreign Plan

 ARTICLE 8. CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES.

 (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any Note, if at any time any change, after the date hereof (or, if later, after the date the
Administrative Agent or any Lender becomes the Administrative Agent or a Lender), in applicable law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof makes it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans, such Lender shall promptly give
written notice thereof and of the basis therefor in reasonable detail to the Borrower, and such Lender’s obligations to fund affected Eurodollar Loans or make, continue or convert such Loans under this Agreement, shall thereupon be suspended
until it is no longer unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain such Loans. 
 (b) Upon the giving of the notice to Borrower referred to
in subsection (a) above in respect of any such Loan, and provided the Borrower shall not have prepaid such Loan pursuant to Section 2.9, (i) any outstanding such Loan of such Lender shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan
on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable thereto or on such earlier date as required by law, and (ii) such Lender shall make or continue its portion of any requested Borrowing of such Loan as a Base Rate Loan, which Base Rate Loan
shall, for all other purposes, be considered part of such Borrowing. 
 (c) Any Lender that has given any notice pursuant to
Section 8.1(a) shall, upon determining that it would no longer be unlawful for it to make such Loans, give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and upon giving such notice, its obligation to make, allow
conversions into and maintain such Loans shall be reinstated. 
 Section 8.2. Unavailability of Deposits or Inability to Ascertain LIBOR
Rate. If on or before the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans the Administrative Agent determines in good faith (after consultation with the other Lenders) that, due to changes in circumstances since the date
hereof, adequate and fair means do not exist for determining the LIBOR Rate (including without limitation, the unavailability of matching deposits in the applicable currency) or such rate will not accurately reflect the cost to the Required Lenders
of funding Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give written notice (in reasonable detail) of such determination and of the basis therefor to the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent
notifies the Borrower and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist (which the Administrative Agent shall do promptly after they do not exist), (i) the obligations of 

  

 59 







 
the Lenders to make, continue or convert Loans as or into such Eurodollar Loans, or to convert Base Rate Loans into such Eurodollar Loans, shall be suspended
and (ii) each Eurodollar Loan will automatically on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, convert into a Base Rate Loan. 
 Section 8.3. Increased Cost and Reduced Return. 
 (a) If, on or after the date hereof, the adoption of or any change in any
applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender
(or its applicable Lending Office), with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency exercising control over banks or financial institutions generally issued after the
date hereof (or, if later, after the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender becomes the Administrative Agent or a Lender): 
 (i) subjects any Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) to any tax, duty or other charge related to any Eurodollar Loan or its obligation to advance or maintain Eurodollar Loans, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any
Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) of the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar Loans or any participations in any thereof, or any other amounts due under this Agreement or any other Credit Document related to its Eurodollar Loans or
participations therein, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans or acquire participations therein (except for changes with respect to taxes that are not Indemnified Taxes pursuant to Section 3.3); or 
 (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such
requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding for any Eurodollar Loan any such requirement included in an applicable Statutory Reserve Rate) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or
credit extended by, any Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) or imposes on any Lender (or its Lending Office) or on the interbank market any other condition affecting its Eurodollar Loans or its participation in any thereof, or its obligation
to advance or maintain Eurodollar Loans or participate in any thereof; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or
its applicable Lending Office) of advancing or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) in connection therewith under this Agreement or any other
Credit Document, by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, subject to Section 8.3(c), from time to time, within thirty (30) days after receipt of a certificate from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent)
pursuant to subsection (c) below setting forth in reasonable detail such determination and the basis thereof, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such
increased cost or reduction. 
  

 60 







 (b) If, after the date hereof, the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have reasonably determined
that the adoption after the date hereof of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein (including, without limitation, any revision in the Final Risk-Based Capital Guidelines of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR Part 208, Appendix A; 12 CFR Part 225, Appendix A) or of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (12 CFR Part 3, Appendix A), or in any other applicable capital adequacy rules heretofore adopted and issued by
any governmental authority), or any change after the date hereof in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
compliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital, or on the capital of any corporation controlling such Lender, as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have
achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its controlling corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy in effect immediately before such adoption, change or compliance) by
an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then, subject to Section 8.3(c), from time to time, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of a certificate from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) pursuant
to subsection (c) below setting forth in reasonable detail such determination and the basis thereof, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction or the Borrower may
prepay all Eurodollar Loans of such Lender. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent and each Lender that determines to seek compensation or
additional interest under this Section 8.3 or Section 2.11 shall give written notice to the Borrower and, in the case of a Lender other than the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent of the circumstances that entitle the
Administrative Agent or such Lender to such compensation no later than ninety (90) days after the Administrative Agent or such Lender receives actual notice or obtains actual knowledge of the law, rule, order or interpretation or occurrence of
another event giving rise to a claim hereunder. In any event the Borrower shall not have any obligation to pay any amount with respect to claims accruing prior to the ninetieth day preceding such written demand, except if the law, rule, order or
interpretation giving rise to such request for compensation has retroactive effect, such ninety (90) day period shall be extended to include such retroactive period. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable efforts to avoid
the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation, additional interest, and any payment under Section 3.3, including, without limitation, the designation of a different Lending Office, if such action or designation will not, in the sole
judgment of the Administrative Agent or such Lender made in good faith, be otherwise disadvantageous to it; provided that the foregoing shall not in any way affect the rights of any Lender or the obligations of the Borrower under this
Section 8.3 or Section 2.11, and provided further that no Lender shall be obligated to make its Eurodollar Loans hereunder at any office located in the United States of America. A certificate of the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, as applicable, claiming compensation or additional interest under this Section 8.3 or Section 2.11, and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and accompanied by a statement prepared by the
Administrative Agent or such Lender describing in reasonable detail the calculations thereof shall be prima facie evidence of the correctness thereof. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution
methods.

 Section 8.4. Lending Offices. The Administrative Agent and each Lender may, at its option, elect
to make or maintain its Loans hereunder at the Lending Office for each type of Loan available hereunder or at such other of its branches, offices or affiliates as it may from time to time elect and designate in a written notice to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent, provided that, except in the case of any such transfer to another of its branches, offices or affiliates made at the request of the Borrower, the Borrower shall not be responsible for the costs arising under
Section 3.3 or 8.3 resulting from any such transfer to the extent not otherwise applicable to such Lender prior to such transfer. 
 Section 8.5. Discretion of Lender as to Manner of Funding. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit.

 Section 8.6. Substitution of Lender. If (a) any Lender has demanded compensation or additional interest or given notice of its
intention to demand compensation or additional interest under Section 8.3 or Section 2.11, (b) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender under Section 2.11, (c) any Lender is unable to submit any
form or certificate required under Section 3.3(b) or withdraws or cancels any previously submitted form with no substitution therefor, (d) any Lender gives notice of any change in law or regulations, or in the interpretation thereof,
pursuant to Section 8.1, (e) any Lender has been declared insolvent or a receiver or conservator has been appointed for a material portion of its assets, business or properties, or such Lender is otherwise a Defaulting Lender, (f) any
Lender shall seek to avoid its obligation to make or maintain Loans hereunder for any reason, including, without limitation, reliance upon 12 U.S.C. § 1821(e) or (n) (1) (B), (g) any taxes referred to in Section 3.3
have been levied or imposed (or the Borrower determines in good faith that there is a substantial likelihood that such taxes will be levied or imposed) so as to require withholding or deductions by the Borrower or payment by the Borrower of
additional amounts to any Lender, or other reimbursement or indemnification of any Lender, as a result thereof, or (h) any Lender shall decline to consent to a modification or waiver of the terms of this Agreement or any other Credit Documents
requested by the Borrower, or then and in such event, upon request from the Borrower delivered to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall assign, in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.10 and an appropriately
completed Assignment Agreement, all of its rights and obligations under the Credit Documents to another Lender or a commercial banking institution selected by the Borrower and (in the case of a commercial banking institution other than a Lender)
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in consideration for the payments set forth in such Assignment Agreement and payment by the Borrower to such Lender of all other amounts which such Lender may be owed pursuant to this Agreement,
including, without limitation, Sections 2.11, 3.3, 8.3 and 10.13. 
 ARTICLE 9. THE AGENTS. 
 Section 9.1. Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent and Other Agents. Each Lender hereby appoints JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as the
Administrative Agent 

  

 62 







 
under the Credit Documents and hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as the Administrative Agent on each of its behalf and to
exercise such powers under the Credit Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. None of the other Lenders appointed as one of the Other Agents shall
have any duties, responsibilities, or obligations hereunder in such capacity. 
 Section 9.2. Rights and Powers. The Administrative
Agent and the Other Agents shall have the same rights and powers under the Credit Documents as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising such rights and power as though it were not the Administrative Agent or an Other Agent, and
the Administrative Agent and the Other Agents and their respective affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any other Members of the Consolidated Group or their affiliates
as if it were not an Administrative Agent or an Other Agent under the Credit Documents. The term Lender as used in all Credit Documents, unless the context otherwise clearly requires, includes the Administrative Agent and the Other Agents in their
respective individual capacities as a Lender. 
 Section 9.3. Action by Administrative Agent and the Other Agents. The obligations of
the Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents are only those expressly set forth therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action concerning any Default or Event of
Default, except as expressly provided in Section 7.2. Unless and until the Required Lenders (or, if required by Section 10.11, all of the Lenders) give such direction (including, without limitation, the giving of a notice of default as
described in Section 7.1(c)), the Administrative Agent may, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or therein, take or refrain from taking such actions as it deems appropriate and in the best interest of all the Lenders. In no event,
however, shall the Administrative Agent be required to take any action in violation of applicable law or of any provision of any Credit Document, and each of the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to
act hereunder or under any other Credit Document unless it first receives any further assurances of its indemnification from the Lenders that it may require, including prepayment of any related expenses and any other protection it requires against
any and all costs, expenses, and liabilities it may incur in taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Default or Event of Default, other than non-payment of any scheduled principal or
interest payment due hereunder, exists unless notified in writing to the contrary by a Lender or the Borrower. In all cases in which the Credit Documents do not require the Administrative Agent to take specific action, the Administrative Agent shall
be fully justified in using its discretion in failing to take or in taking any action thereunder. Any instructions of the Required Lenders, or of any other group of Lenders called for under specific provisions of the Credit Documents, shall be
binding on all the Lenders and holders of Notes. 
 Section 9.4. Consultation with Experts. The Administrative Agent may consult with
legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. 

 

 63 







 Section 9.5. Indemnification Provisions; Credit Decision. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any
of its directors, officers, agents, or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by them in connection with the Credit Documents (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or, if required by
Section 10.11, all of the Lenders), or (ii) in the absence of their own gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for
or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any Borrowing; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the
covenants or agreements of the Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group contained herein or in any other Credit Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article 4, except receipt of items required to be
delivered to the Administrative Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, value, worth or collectability hereof or of any other Credit Document or of any other documents or writings furnished in connection with
any Credit Document; and the Administrative Agent makes no representation of any kind or character with respect to any such matters mentioned in this sentence. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under any of the Credit Documents
by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders or any other Person for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall
not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, other document or statement (whether written or oral) believed by it to be genuine or to be sent by the proper party or parties. In particular and without limiting
any of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for confirming the accuracy of any Compliance Certificate or other document or instrument received by any of them under the Credit Documents. The Administrative Agent and
may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until written notice of transfer shall have been filed with such Administrative Agent signed by such owner in form satisfactory to such Administrative Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that it has
independently, and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, obtained such information and made such investigations and inquiries regarding the Borrower and the other Members of the Consolidated Group as it deems appropriate,
and based upon such information, investigations and inquiries, made its own credit analysis and decision to extend credit to the Borrower in the manner set forth in the Credit Documents. It shall be the responsibility of each Lender to keep itself
informed about the creditworthiness and business, properties, assets, liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise) and prospects of the Borrower and the other Members of the Consolidated Group, and the Administrative Agent shall have no liability
whatsoever to any Lender for such matters. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose to the Lenders information that is not required by any Credit Document to be furnished by the Borrower or any other Members of the Consolidated Group
to such Agent at such time, but is voluntarily furnished to such Agent (either in its respective capacity as Administrative Agent or in its individual capacity). 
 Section 9.6. Indemnity. The Lenders shall ratably, in accordance with their Percentages, indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent and their directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives harmless
from and against any liabilities, losses, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by it under any Credit Document or in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, regardless of when asserted or arising, except to the extent 

  

 64 







 
they are promptly reimbursed for the same by the Borrower and except to the extent that any event giving rise to a claim was caused by the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of the party seeking to be indemnified. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 9.6 shall survive termination of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.7. Resignation. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time and shall resign upon any removal thereof as a Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement upon at least thirty (30) days’
prior written notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Any resignation of the Administrative Agent shall not be effective until a replacement therefor is appointed pursuant to the terms hereof. Upon any such resignation of the Administrative Agent,
the Required Lenders and, so long as no Event of Default shall then exist, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no
successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the
retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and, so long as no Event of Default shall then exist, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) appoint a successor Administrative Agent
which shall be any Lender hereunder or any commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $1,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance of its appointment
as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents, and the retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations thereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent the provisions of this Article 9 and all protective provisions of the other Credit
Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent. 
 Section 9.8.
Sub-Agents. The Administrative Agent may designate one or more Sub-Agents under this Agreement to carry out certain duties of the Administrative Agent as described herein. Each Sub-Agent shall be subject to each of the obligations in this
Agreement to be performed by such Sub-Agent, and each of the Loan Parties and the Lenders agrees that each Sub-Agent shall be entitled to exercise each of the rights and shall be entitled to each of the benefits of the Administrative Agent under
this Agreement as relate to the performance of its obligations hereunder. 
 ARTICLE 10. MISCELLANEOUS. 
 Section 10.1. No Waiver. No delay or failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or on the part of the holder or holders of any
Notes, in the exercise of any power, right or remedy under any Credit Document shall operate as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any
other power, right or remedy. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the powers, rights and remedies under the Credit Documents of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the holder or holders of any Notes are cumulative to, and not
exclusive of, any powers, rights or remedies any of them would otherwise have. 
  

 65 







 Section 10.2. Non-Business Day. Subject to Section 2.4, if any payment of principal or
interest on any portion of any Loan or any other Obligation shall fall due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest or fees (as applicable) at the rate, if any, such portion of any Loan or other Obligation bears for the period prior to
maturity shall continue to accrue in the manner set forth herein on such Obligation from the stated due date thereof to the next succeeding Business Day, on which the same shall instead be payable. 
 Section 10.3. Documentary Taxes. The Borrower agrees that it will pay any documentary, stamp, debt issuance, or similar taxes payable with respect
to any Credit Document (including, without limitation, any issuance stamp tax that may be levied or otherwise become payable on any Loans or this Agreement, any Note, the Holdings Guaranty, any Subsidiary Guaranty, or any other Credit Document under
the laws of Switzerland or any other jurisdiction), including interest and penalties, in the event any such taxes are levied or assessed, irrespective of when such levy or assessment is made, other than any such taxes imposed as a result of any
transfer of an interest in a Credit Document. Each Lender that determines to seek compensation under this Section 10.3 shall give written notice to the Borrower and, in the case of a Lender other than the Administrative Agent, the
Administrative Agent of the circumstances that entitle such Lender to such compensation no later than ninety (90) days after such Lender receives actual notice or obtains actual knowledge of the law, rule, order or interpretation or occurrence
of another event giving rise to a claim hereunder. In any event, the Borrower shall not have any obligation to pay any amount with respect to claims accruing prior to the 90th day preceding such written demand. 
 Section 10.4. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties made herein or in certificates given pursuant hereto shall survive
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the date as of which they were made as long as the Borrower has any Obligation hereunder or any Commitment
hereunder is in effect. 
 Section 10.5. Survival of Indemnities. All indemnities and all provisions relative to reimbursement to the
Lenders of amounts sufficient to protect the yield of the Lenders with respect to the Loans, including, but not limited to, Section 2.11, Section 3.3, Section 7.6, Section 8.3, Section 10.3, and Section 10.13 hereof,
shall, subject to Section 8.3(c), survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the payment of the Loans and all other Obligations and, with respect to any Lender, any replacement by the Borrower of such Lender
pursuant to the terms hereof, in each case for a period of one (1) year. 
 Section 10.6. Setoff. In addition to any rights now
or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of, and throughout the continuance of, any Event of Default, each Lender and each subsequent holder of any Note is hereby authorized by
the Borrower and each other Loan Party at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party or other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all
deposits (general 

  

 66 







 
or special, including, but not limited to, Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts,
and in whatever currency denominated) and any other Indebtedness at any time owing by that Lender or that subsequent holder to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, whether or not matured, against and on account
of the due and unpaid obligations and liabilities of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to that Lender or that subsequent holder under the Credit Documents, irrespective of whether or not that Lender or that subsequent holder shall have made any
demand hereunder. Each Lender shall promptly give notice to the Borrower of any action taken by it under this Section 10.6, provided that any failure of such Lender to give such notice to the Borrower shall not affect the validity of
such setoff. Each Lender agrees with each other Lender a party hereto that if such Lender receives and retains any payment, whether by setoff or application of deposit balances or otherwise, in respect of the Loans in excess of its ratable share of
payments on all such Obligations then owed to the Lenders hereunder, then such Lender shall purchase for cash at face value, but without recourse, ratably from each of the other Lenders such amount of the Loans and participations therein held by
each such other Lender as shall be necessary to cause such Lender to share such excess payment ratably with all the other Lenders; provided, however, that if any such purchase is made by any Lender, and if such excess payment or part thereof
is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the related purchases from the other Lenders shall be rescinded ratably and the purchase price restored as to the portion of such excess payment so recovered, but without interest. 
 Section 10.7. Notices. Except as otherwise specified herein, all notices under the Credit Documents shall be in writing (including facsimile, or
other electronic means) and shall be given to a party hereunder at its address or facsimile number set forth below or such other address or facsimile number as such party may hereafter specify by written notice to the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, given by courier, by United States certified or registered mail, by telegram or by other telecommunication device capable of creating a written record of such notice and its receipt. Notices under the Credit Documents to the Lenders shall
be addressed to their respective domestic Lending Offices in the United States at the respective addresses or facsimile numbers, or telephone numbers set forth on their applicable Administrative Questionnaire or, in the case of Persons becoming
Lenders pursuant to Assignment Agreements, on their applicable Assignment Agreements, and to the Borrower, and the Administrative Agent:

 Section 10.8. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by
the different parties on different counterpart signature pages, each of which when executed shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. 
 Section 10.9. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower, each of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and their
respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, and their respective successors and assigns, including any subsequent holder of any Note; provided, however, the
Borrower may not assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document without the written consent of all Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may not assign any of its respective
rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Credit Document except in accordance with Article 9 and no Lender may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document except in accordance with
Section 10.10. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed to confer on any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, and to the extent expressly contemplated hereby,
Controlling Affiliates of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Other Agents, and the Indemnified Parties as defined in Section 10.13) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Agreement. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the Notes issued to it (i) to a Federal Reserve Bank to secure extensions of credit by such Federal Reserve Bank to such Lender, or
(ii) in the case of any Lender that is a fund comprised in whole or in part of commercial loans, to a trustee for such fund in support of such Lender’s obligations to such trustee; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall
release any Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such Federal Reserve Bank or such trustee for such Lender as a party hereto and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely
with such Lender in connection with the rights and obligations of such Lender under this Agreement. 
 Section 10.10. Sales and Transfers
of Borrowing and Notes; Participations in Borrowings and Notes. 
 (a) Any Lender may, upon written notice to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, at any time sell to one or more commercial banking or other financial or lending institutions (“Participants”) participating interests in any Commitment of such Lender hereunder, provided that no Lender
shall transfer, grant or assign any participation under which the Participant shall have rights to vote upon or to consent to any matter to be decided by the Lenders or the Required Lenders hereunder or under any other Credit Document or to approve
any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) increase the amount of such Lender’s Commitment and such increase would affect such Participant,
(ii) reduce the principal of, or interest on, any of such Lender’s Borrowings, or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder and such reduction would affect such Participant, (iii) postpone any date fixed for any
scheduled payment of principal of, or interest on, any of such Lender’s Borrowings, or any fees or other 

  

 69 







 
amounts payable to such Lender hereunder and such postponement would affect such Participant, or (iv) release any collateral security for any
Obligation, except as otherwise specifically provided in any Credit Document. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes under this Agreement, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower under any Credit Document.
The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Notes shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable in accordance with Section 7.2 or 7.3 upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant
shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and any Note to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under
this Agreement or any Note, provided that such right of setoff shall be subject to the obligation of such Participant to share with the Lenders, and the Lenders agree to share with such Participant, as provided in Section 10.6. The
Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of and have the obligations under Sections 2.11, 3.3 and 8.3 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Borrowings outstanding from time to time,
provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Sections than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred if no
participation had been transferred and provided, further, that Sections 8.3(c) and 8.6 shall apply to the transferor Lender with respect to any claim by any Participant pursuant to Section 2.11, 3.3 or 8.3 as fully as if such claim was
made by such Lender. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower shall not, at any time, be obligated to pay to any Lender any sum in excess of the sum the Borrower would have been obligated to pay to such Lender hereunder if such
Lender had not sold any participation in its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. 
 (b) Any Lender may
at any time sell to (i) any of such Lender’s affiliates or to any other Lender or any affiliate thereof that, in each case, is a commercial banking or other financial or lending institution not subject to Regulation T of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System and, (ii) with the prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower, to one or more commercial banking or other financial or
lending institutions not subject to Regulation T of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (any of (i) or (ii), a “Purchasing Lender”), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the
other Credit Documents, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit 10.10, executed by such Purchasing Lender and such transferor Lender (and, in the case of a Purchasing Lender which is not then a Lender or an
affiliate thereof, by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) and delivered to the Administrative Agent; provided that each such sale to a Purchasing Lender (other than an existing Lender) shall be in the amount of $5,000,000 or more, or
if in a lesser amount or if as a result of such sale the sum of the unfunded Commitment of such Lender plus the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s Loans would be less than the amount of $5,000,000 (calculated as hereinafter set
forth), such sale shall be of all of such Lender’s rights and 

  

 70 







 
obligations under this Agreement and all of the other Credit Documents payable to it to one Purchasing Lender. Notwithstanding the requirement of the
Borrower’s consent set forth above, but subject to all of the other terms and conditions of this Section 10.10(b), any Lender may sell to one or more commercial banking or other financial or lending institutions not subject to Regulation T
of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, all or any part of their rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with only the consent of the Administrative Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon such execution, delivery and acceptance, from and after the effective date of the transfer determined pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, (x) the Purchasing
Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment as set forth herein and (y) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to
the extent provided in such Assignment Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of a transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under
this Agreement, such transferor Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Such Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the
resulting adjustment of Commitments and Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Credit Documents. On or
prior to the effective date of the transfer determined pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall upon reasonable notice from the Administrative Agent execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange
for any surrendered Note, a new Note as appropriate to the order of such Purchasing Lender in an amount equal to the Commitments assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, and, if the transferor Lender has retained a Commitment or
Borrowing hereunder, a new Note to the order of the transferor Lender in an amount equal to the Commitments or Borrowings retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall be dated the Effective Date and shall otherwise be in the form of the Notes
replaced thereby. The Notes surrendered by the transferor Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked “cancelled.” 
 (c) Upon its receipt of an Assignment Agreement executed by a transferor Lender and a Purchasing Lender (and, in the case of a Purchasing Lender that is not then a Lender or an affiliate thereof, by the Administrative
Agent and, to the extent required by Section 10.10(b), by the Borrower), together with payment by the transferor Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder of a registration and processing fee of $1,000 (unless the Borrower is replacing such
Lender pursuant to the terms hereof, in which event such fee shall be paid by the Borrower), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment Agreement, and (ii) on the effective date of the transfer determined pursuant
thereto give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Borrower shall not be responsible for such registration and processing fee or any costs or expenses incurred by any Lender, any Purchasing Lender or the
Administrative Agent in connection with such assignment except as provided above. 
 (d) If, pursuant to this Section 10.10 any interest
in this Agreement or any Loan or Note is transferred to any transferee which is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other 

  

 71 







 
than the United States of America or any State thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such
transfer, (i) to represent to the transferor Lender (for the benefit of the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) that under applicable law and treaties no taxes will be required to be withheld by the Administrative
Agent, the Borrower or the transferor Lender with respect to any payments to be made to such transferee in respect of the Loans, (ii) to furnish to the transferor Lender (and, in the case of any Purchasing Lender, the Administrative Agent and
the Borrower) two duly completed and signed copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing
authorities (wherein such transferee claims entitlement to complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax on all interest payments hereunder), and (iii) to agree (for the benefit of the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower) to provide the transferor Lender (and, in the case of any Purchasing Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) new forms as contemplated by Section 3.3(b) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form
and comparable statements in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations and amendments duly executed and completed by such transferee, and to comply from time to time with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations with regard to such
withholding tax exemption. 
 (e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 10.10, no transfer or assignment of the interests
of any Lender hereunder or any grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower to file a registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans, the Notes or any other
Obligations under the securities laws of any jurisdiction. 
 Section 10.11. Amendments, Waivers and Consents. Any provision of the
Credit Documents may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by (a) the Borrower, (b) the Required Lenders, and (c) if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Other
Agents are affected thereby, the Administrative Agent or the Other Agents, as the case may be, provided that: 
 (i) no
amendment or waiver shall (A) increase the Revolving Credit Commitment Amount without the consent of all Lenders or increase any Commitment of any Lender without the consent of such Lender, (B) postpone or extend the Commitment Termination
Date without the consent of all Lenders, or reduce the amount of or postpone the date for any scheduled payment of any principal of or interest (including, without limitation, any reduction in the rate of interest unless such reduction is otherwise
provided herein) on any Loan or of any fee payable hereunder, without the consent of each Lender owed any such Obligation, or (C) release Holdings from its obligations under the Holdings Guaranty or, except as otherwise expressly permitted
under this Agreement, release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranties without the consent of all Lenders; 
 (ii) no amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by each Lender, change the provisions of this Section 10.11, Section 3.2(a) or
the definition of Required Lenders or the number of Lenders required to take any action under any other provision of the Credit Documents or any provision providing for the pro rata nature of payments by or to Lenders.

 Section 10.12. Headings. Section headings used in this Agreement are for reference only and shall
not affect the construction of this Agreement. 
 Section 10.13. Legal Fees, Other Costs and Indemnification. The Borrower, upon
demand by the Administrative Agent, agrees to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel to the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation and execution of the Credit Documents (which shall be in an amount agreed in
writing by the Borrower), and any amendment, waiver or consent related thereto, whether or not the transactions contemplated therein are consummated. The Borrower further agrees to indemnify each Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Other Agents,
and their respective directors, officers, employees and attorneys (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all
reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of litigation or preparation therefor, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto) which any of them may pay or incur as a result of (a) any action, suit
or proceeding by any third party or Governmental Authority against such Indemnified Party and relating to any Credit Document, the Loans, or the application or proposed application by the Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group of the
proceeds of any Loan, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH CLAIMS OR ACTIONS ARE FOUNDED IN WHOLE OR IN PART UPON THE ALLEGED SIMPLE OR CONTRIBUTORY NEGLIGENCE OF ANY OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES AND/OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES
OR ATTORNEYS, (b) any investigation of any third party or any Governmental Authority involving any Lender (as a lender hereunder), or the Administrative Agent or the Other Agents (in such capacity hereunder) and related to any use made or
proposed to be made by the Borrower of the proceeds of any Loan, or any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly with the proceeds of any Loan, and (c) any investigation of any third party or any
Governmental Authority, litigation or proceeding involving any Lender (as a lender hereunder) or the Administrative Agent or the Other Agents (in such capacity hereunder) and related to any environmental cleanup, audit, compliance or other matter
relating to any Environmental Law or the presence of any Hazardous Material (including, without limitation, any losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, costs, expenses or claims asserted or arising under any Environmental Law) with respect to the
Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group, regardless of whether caused by, or within the control of, the Borrower or any other Member of the Consolidated Group; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to
indemnify any Indemnified Party for any of the foregoing arising out of such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct, as determined pursuant to a judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or as expressly
agreed in writing by such Indemnified Party. The Borrower, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, the Other Agents or any Lender at any time, shall reimburse such Agent or such Lender for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in
connection with investigating or defending against any of the foregoing, except if the same is excluded from indemnification pursuant to the provisions of the preceding sentence. Each Indemnified Party agrees to contest any indemnified claim if
requested by the Borrower, in a manner reasonably directed by the Borrower, with counsel selected by the Indemnified Party 

  

 73 







 
and approved by the Borrower, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any Indemnified Party that proposes or intends to settle or
compromise any such indemnified claim shall give the Borrower written notice of the terms of such settlement or compromise reasonably in advance of settling or compromising such claim or proceeding and shall obtain the Borrower’s prior written
consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the Indemnified Party shall not be restricted from settling or compromising any such claim if the Indemnified Party waives its right to indemnity from
the Borrower in respect of such claim and such settlement or compromise does not materially increase the Borrower’s liability pursuant to this Section 10.13 to any related party of such Indemnified Party. 
 Section 10.14. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (A) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS, AND THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES THERETO, SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED
BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. 
 (B) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER
VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE OTHER AGENTS, THE LENDERS, THE BORROWER AND ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY MAY BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN OR THE UNITED
STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION AS SET FORTH ABOVE AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH LITIGATION. THE
BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY DESIGNATES CT CORPORATION SYSTEM, 111 8TH AVENUE, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10011, AS THE DESIGNEE, APPOINTEE AND AGENT OF THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY TO RECEIVE, FOR AND ON BEHALF OF THE
BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY, SERVICE OF PROCESS IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT HERETO. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS
TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS, BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF 

  

 74 







 
NEW YORK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION
WHICH IT MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE BORROWER AND
EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OF NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO
ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS.

 (C) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR UNDER ANY AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING FROM ANY BANKING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. 
 (D) EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.7. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY
OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. 
 Section 10.15. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Other Agents
and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to their respective affiliates, to prospective Purchasing Lenders and Participants, and to potential
counterparties to any hedge agreement or swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower’s Obligations, and in each case to their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors who have reason to use such Information in connection with the evaluation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (subject to similar confidentiality provisions as provided herein) solely for purposes of evaluating such
Information, (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent required by applicable law or regulation or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) in connection with the exercise of any remedies
hereunder or any proceedings relating to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, (v) with the consent of the Borrower, (vi) to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, 

  

 75 







 
such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Borrower received by it from
any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Other Agents, or (vii) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.15, or (y) becomes available on a
non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or its affiliates, or the Lenders or their respective affiliates, excluding any Information from such source which, to the actual knowledge of the Administrative Agent, the Other Agent, or
the Lender receiving such Information, has been disclosed by such source in violation of a duty of confidentiality to the Borrower. For purposes hereof, “Information” means all information received by the Lenders from the Borrower
relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Lenders on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, excluding any Information from a source which, to the actual knowledge of the
Administrative Agent, the Other Agent or the Lender receiving such Information, has been disclosed by such source in violation of a duty of confidentiality to the Borrower. The Lenders shall be considered to have complied with their respective
obligations if they have exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as they would accord their own confidential information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any party to this Agreement (and
any employee, representative, or other agent of any party to this Agreement) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all
materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. However, any such information relating to the tax treatment or tax structure is required to be kept
confidential to the extent necessary to comply with any applicable federal or state securities laws. 
 Section 10.16. [Intentionally
Omitted]  
 Section 10.17. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 10.18. Change in Accounting Principles, Fiscal
Year or Tax Laws. If (i) any change in accounting principles from those used in the preparation of the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 5.8 is hereafter occasioned by the promulgation of rules, regulations,
pronouncements and opinions by or required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or the American Institute of Certified Public Accounts (or successors thereto or agencies with similar functions), and such change materially affects the
calculation of any component of any financial covenant, standard or term found in this Agreement, or (ii) there is a material change in federal, state or foreign tax laws which materially affects any of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries’
ability to comply with the financial covenants, standards or terms found in this Agreement, the Borrower and the Lenders agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions (with the agreement of the Required Lenders or, if required
by Section 10.11, all of the Lenders) so as to equitably reflect such changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating any of the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ financial condition shall be the same after such
changes as if such changes had not been made. Unless and until such provisions have been so amended, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. 
  

 76 







 Section 10.19. Final Agreement. The Credit Documents constitute the entire understanding among the
Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and supersede all earlier or contemporaneous agreements, whether written or oral, concerning the subject matter of the Credit Documents. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER CREDIT
DOCUMENTS REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 

Section 10.20. Officer’s Certificates. It is not intended that any certificate of any officer or director of the Borrower delivered to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Agreement shall give rise to any personal liability on the part of such officer or director. 
 Section 10.21. Effect of Inclusion of Exceptions. It is not intended that the specification of any exception to any covenant herein shall imply that the excepted matter would, but for such exception, be prohibited or required.

 Section 10.22. Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby
notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information
that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are
reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lenders in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act. 
 Section 10.23. No Fiduciary Duty. Each of the Administrative Agent, each Other Agent, each Lender and their respective affiliates
(collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lender Parties”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees that nothing in the Credit Documents or otherwise will be deemed
to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any of the Lender Parties and the Borrower, its shareholders or its affiliates. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) the
transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lender Parties, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such
transaction, each of the Lender Parties is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other person, (iii) no Lender Party has assumed an advisory or fiduciary
responsibility in favor of the Borrower with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender Party or any of its affiliates has advised or is currently advising the Borrower on other
matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Credit 

  

 77 







 
Documents and (iv) the Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Borrower further
acknowledges and agrees that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender Party has rendered advisory
services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. 
 Section 10.24. Termination of Existing 364-Day Revolver Facility. Each of the parties to this Agreement that is a party to the Existing 364-Day Revolver Facility as of the Effective Date hereby agrees that, as
of the Effective Date, subject to prior payment in full to the “Lenders” (as defined in the Existing 364-Day Revolver Facility) of all amounts owed to them with respect to the 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of December 3,
2007 and the other Credit Documents (as defined therein), (i) the Existing 364-Day Revolver Facility and all of the commitments to extend credit under the Existing 364-Day Revolver Facility shall be terminated and of no further force or effect,
(ii) any and all requirements for prior written notice of the termination of such commitments and any other conditions precedent to such termination are hereby waived by such parties (with such parties constituting the “Required
Lenders” under the Existing 364-Day Revolver Facility), and (iii) the 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of December 3, 2007 shall be terminated and of no further force or effect, except as to those provisions of such
agreement that by their terms survive the termination thereof and continue in effect.
