Incremental Term Loan Commitment as in effect on such date. The Initial Term Loan Commitment of each Term Loan Lender shall expire on the Closing Date. The Incremental Term Loan Commitment of each Term Loan Lender shall expire on the Borrowing Date
designated for such Incremental Term Loan in accordance with Section 2.2(b). 
 (b) Incremental Term Loans. At any
time after the Closing Date, but not more than twice, the Company may request that the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment be increased from zero in order to accommodate an incremental single-draw installment of Term Loans (each, an “Incremental
Term Loan”) solely with the consent of each Lender participating in such Incremental Term Loan; provided, however, that without the prior written consent of each Lender, the aggregate initial principal amount of all Incremental Term Loans made
pursuant to this Section 2.2(b), together with the aggregate amount of all increases in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to Section 2.5(c), shall not exceed $300,000,000. Each such request shall be in a minimum amount of at
least $10,000,000 and increments of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. Each request shall be made in a written notice given to the Agent and the Term Loan Lenders by the Company not less than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the proposed effective
date of such increase, which notice (a “Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice”) shall specify the amount of the proposed amount of the increase in the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment, the corresponding amount of the Incremental Term Loan and
the proposed effective date therefor, which shall also be the proposed Borrowing Date for such Incremental Term Loan. In the event of such a Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice, each of the Term

  

 - 28 - 








 
Loan Lenders shall be given the opportunity to participate in the requested Incremental Term Loan in proportion to their respective then current Term Loan Pro Rata Shares thereof. On or prior to
the date that is fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of the Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice, each Term Loan Lender shall submit to the Agent a notice indicating the maximum amount by which it is willing to assume an Incremental Term
Loan Commitment in connection with such Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice (any such notice to the Agent being herein a “Term Loan Lender Increase Notice”). Any Term Loan Lender which does not submit a Term Loan Lender Increase Notice to
the Agent prior to the expiration of such fifteen (15) Business Day period shall be deemed to have denied an Incremental Term Loan Commitment. In the event that the Incremental Term Loan Commitments set forth in the Term Loan Lender Increase
Notices exceed the amount requested by the Company in the Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice, the Agent and the Arrangers for the Term Loan Facility shall have the right, with the consent of the Company, to allocate the amount of Incremental Term
Loan Commitments necessary to meet the Company’s Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice. In the event that the Term Loan Lender Increase Notices are less than the amount requested by the Company, not later than three (3) Business Days prior
to the proposed effective date the Company may notify the Agent of any financial institution that shall have agreed to become a “Term Loan Lender” party hereto (a “Proposed New Term Loan Lender”) in connection with the Term Loan
Commitment Increase Notice. Any Proposed New Term Loan Lender shall be subject to the consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If the Company shall not have arranged any Proposed New Term Loan Lender(s) to
commit to the shortfall from the Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice, then the Company shall be deemed to have reduced the amount of its Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice to the aggregate amount set forth in the Term Loan Lender Increase
Notices. Based upon the Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice, any allocations made in connection therewith and any notice regarding any Proposed New Term Loan Lender, if applicable, the Agent shall notify the Company and all of the Lenders
(including the Revolving Lenders) on or before the Business Day immediately prior to the proposed effective date of the amount of each Term Loan Lender’s and Proposed New Term Loan Lender’s incremental Term Loan Commitment (the
“Effective Term Loan Commitment Amount”) and the aggregate amount of the Incremental Term Loans, which amounts shall be effective on the following Business Day (which shall also be the Borrowing Date for such Incremental Term Loan).
Without limiting the provisions of Section 4.3, any increase in the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment and the concurrent funding of any Incremental Term Loans shall be subject to the following conditions precedent: (I) as of the date of the
Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice and as of the proposed effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment all representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as though made on such date
(except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct on and as of such earlier date) and no event shall have occurred
and then be continuing which constitutes a Default or Unmatured Default, (II) the Borrowers, the Agent and each Proposed New Term Loan Lender or Term Loan Lender that shall have agreed to provide a “Term Loan Commitment” in support of such
Incremental Term Loan shall have executed and delivered a Commitment and Acceptance, (III) counsel for the Borrowers and for the Guarantors shall have provided to the Agent supplemental opinions in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Agent and (IV) the Borrowers and each Proposed New Term Loan Lender shall otherwise have executed and delivered such other

  

 - 29 - 








 
instruments and documents as may be required under Article IV or that the Agent shall have reasonably requested in connection with such increase. If any fee shall be charged by the Term Loan
Lenders in connection with any such increase, such fee shall be in accordance with then prevailing market conditions, which market conditions shall have been reasonably documented by the Agent to the Company. No less than two (2) Business Days
prior to the effective date of the increase of the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment, the Agent shall notify the Company of the amount of the fee to be charged by the Term Loan Lenders, and the Company may, at least one (1) Business Day prior to
such effective date, cancel its request for the commitment increase. If the commitment increase is cancelled pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Company’s cancelled increase request shall not be counted towards the
Company’s two Incremental Term Loan requests permitted by the first sentence of this Section 2.2(b). Upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent to any increase in the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment, the Agent shall promptly advise the
Company and each Lender (including the Revolving Lenders) of the effective date of such increase. Upon the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment that is supported by a Proposed New Term Loan Lender, such Proposed New
Term Loan Lender shall be a party to this Agreement as a Term Loan Lender and shall have the rights and obligations of a Term Loan Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of
any Term Loan Lender to increase its Term Loan Commitment hereunder at any time. Each Incremental Term Loan shall mature on the Revolving Loan Termination Date and shall amortize pursuant to paragraph (c)(i) below in installments proportionate to
the then remaining installments of the Initial Term Loans. 
 (c) Repayment of Term Loans. 
 (i) Repayment of the Term Loans. The Term Loans shall be repaid in (A) eleven (11) consecutive quarterly installments,
commencing with the calendar quarter ending March 31, 2009 and continuing for each calendar quarter thereafter through the Revolving Loan Termination Date, and (B) one (1) final installment on the Revolving Loan Termination Date. Each
payment described in the foregoing clause (A) shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of the applicable calendar quarter. The Term Loans shall be permanently reduced by the amount of each installment on the date payment thereof is
made hereunder. The installment for each calendar quarter with respect to the Initial Term Loans shall be in the amounts set forth below opposite the last day of such calendar quarter:

 (ii) Voluntary Prepayments. In addition to the scheduled payments on the Term Loans, the Company may make the voluntary prepayments
described in Section 2.7(a), with such prepayments applied ratably to reduce all outstanding installments under the Term Loans. 
 2.3. Ratable Loans; Types of Advances. Each Advance of Revolving Loans hereunder (other than any Swing Line Loan) shall consist of Revolving Loans made from the several Revolving Lenders ratably
according to their Revolving Loan Pro Rata Shares. Each Advance of Term Loans hereunder shall consist of Term Loans made from the several Term Loan Lenders ratably in the proportion that their respective Term Loan Commitments bear to all of the then
current Aggregate Term Loan Commitment. The Advances may be Floating Rate Advances or Eurocurrency Advances, or a combination thereof, selected by the applicable Borrower in accordance with Sections 2.8 and 2.9, or Swing Line Loans selected by the
Company in accordance with Section 2.4. 
 2.4. Swing Line Loans. 
 2.4.1. Amount of Swing Line Loans. Upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.3
and, if such Swing Line Loan is to be made on the date of the initial Advance hereunder, the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.1 as well, from and including the Closing Date and prior to the Revolving Loan
Termination Date, the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole discretion, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, make Swing Line Loans to the Company from time to time, in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed
$15,000,000 at any one time outstanding, provided that the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure shall not at any time exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, and provided further that at no time shall the sum of
(i) the Swing Line Loans, plus (ii) the Dollar Amount of the outstanding Revolving Loans made by the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.1, plus (iii) the Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of the
LC Obligations, exceed the Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment at such time. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Line Loans at any time prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date.

 2.4.2. Borrowing Notice. The Company shall deliver to the Agent and the Swing Line Lender irrevocable
notice (a “Swing Line Borrowing Notice”) not later than noon (Chicago time) on the Borrowing Date of each Swing Line Loan, specifying (i) the applicable Borrowing Date (which date shall be a Business Day), and (ii) the aggregate
amount of the requested Swing Line Loan which shall be an amount not less than $100,000. The Swing Line Loans shall bear interest at the Floating Rate. 
  

 - 31 - 








 2.4.3. Making of Swing Line Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Swing
Line Borrowing Notice, the Agent shall notify each Lender by fax, or other similar form of transmission, of the requested Swing Line Loan. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the applicable Borrowing Date, the Swing Line Lender may, in its
sole discretion, make available the Swing Line Loan, in funds immediately available in Chicago, to the Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII. The Agent will promptly make the funds so received from the Swing Line Lender available
to the Company on the Borrowing Date at the Agent’s aforesaid address. If the Swing Line Lender elects, in its sole discretion, not to make such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender shall promptly notify the Agent, and the Agent shall
promptly notify the Company and each Lender. 
 2.4.4. Repayment of Swing Line Loans. Each Swing Line Loan
shall be paid in full by the Company on or before the tenth (10th) Business Day after the Borrowing Date for such Swing Line Loan. In addition, the Swing Line Lender (i) may at any time in its sole discretion with respect to any
outstanding Swing Line Loan, or (ii) shall on the tenth (10th) Business Day after the Borrowing Date of any Swing Line Loan, by notice to the Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago Time) on any Business Day, require each Revolving Lender
(including the Swing Line Lender) to make a Revolving Loan in Dollars in the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan (including, without limitation, any interest accrued and unpaid thereon), for
the purpose of repaying such Swing Line Loan. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made by such Revolving Lender in
connection with such Swing Line Loan. Not later than noon (Chicago time) on the date of any notice received pursuant to this Section 2.4.4, each Revolving Lender shall make available its required Revolving Loan, in funds immediately available
in Chicago to the Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII. Revolving Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.4.4 shall initially be Floating Rate Loans and thereafter may be continued as Floating Rate Loans or converted into
Eurocurrency Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.9 and subject to the other conditions and limitations set forth in this Article II. Unless a Revolving Lender shall have notified the Swing Line Lender, prior to its making any Swing Line
Loan, that any applicable condition precedent set forth in Sections 4.1 or 4.3 had not then been satisfied, such Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.4.4 to repay Swing Line Loans shall be unconditional,
continuing, irrevocable and absolute and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against the Agent, the
Swing Line Lender or any other Person, (b) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default, (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company, or (d) any other circumstances, happening or
event whatsoever. In the event that any Revolving Lender fails to make payment to the Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.4.4, the Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the principal and interest
otherwise payable to such Revolving Lender

  

 - 32 - 








 
hereunder until the Agent receives such payment from such Revolving Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied. In addition to the foregoing, if for any reason any Lender fails to
make payment to the Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.4.4, such Revolving Lender shall be deemed, at the option of the Agent, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty,
an undivided interest and participation in the applicable Swing Line Loan in the amount of such Revolving Loan, and such interest and participation may be recovered from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate for each day during the period commencing on the date of demand and ending on the date such amount is received. On the Revolving Loan Termination Date, the Company shall repay in full the outstanding principal balance of the Swing
Line Loans. 
 2.5. Commitment Fee; Reduction/Increase in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. 
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Company agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender according to its Revolving Loan
Pro Rata Share a commitment fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Fee Rate on the average daily Available Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment from the Closing Date to and including the Revolving Loan Termination Date, payable on each
Payment Date hereafter and on the Revolving Loan Termination Date. Swing Line Loans shall not count as usage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment for the purpose of calculating the commitment fee due hereunder. 
 (b) Reduction in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. The Borrowers may permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment
in whole, or in part ratably among the Revolving Lenders in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to the Agent, which notice shall specify the
amount of any such reduction, provided, however, that the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment may not be reduced below the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure. All accrued commitment fees shall be payable on the
effective date of any termination of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to make Credit Extensions hereunder. 
 (c)
Increase in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. (i) At any time, but not more than twice, the Company may request that the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment be increased solely with the consent of each Lender participating in such
increase; provided, however, that without the prior written consent of each Lender, the aggregate amount of all increases in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.5(c), together with the aggregate initial principal
amount of all Incremental Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.2(b), shall not exceed $300,000,000. Each such request shall be in a minimum amount of at least $10,000,000 and increments of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. Each request shall be
made in a written notice given to the Agent and the Revolving Lenders by the Company not less than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date of such increase, which notice (a “Revolving Loan Commitment Increase
Notice”) shall specify the amount of the proposed increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and the proposed effective date of such increase. In the event of such a Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice, each of the Revolving
Lenders shall be given the opportunity to participate in the requested increase

  

 - 33 - 








 
ratably in the proportions that their respective Revolving Loan Commitments bear to the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment under this Agreement. On or prior to the date that is fifteen
(15) Business Days after receipt of the Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice, each Lender shall submit to the Agent a notice indicating the maximum amount by which it is willing to increase its Revolving Loan Commitment in connection with
such Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice (any such notice to the Agent being herein a “Revolving Lender Increase Notice”). Any Revolving Lender which does not submit a Revolving Lender Increase Notice to the Agent prior to the
expiration of such fifteen (15) Business Day period shall be deemed to have denied any increase in its Revolving Loan Commitment. In the event that the increases of Revolving Loan Commitments set forth in the Revolving Lender Increase Notices
exceed the amount requested by the Company in the Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice, the Agent and the Arranger for the Revolving Loan Facility shall have the right, with the consent of the Company, to allocate the amount of increases
necessary to meet the Company’s Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice. In the event that the Revolving Lender Increase Notices are less than the amount requested by the Company, not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the
proposed effective date the Company may notify the Agent of any financial institution that shall have agreed to become a “Revolving Lender” party hereto (a “Proposed New Revolving Lender”) in connection with the Revolving Loan
Commitment Increase Notice. Any Proposed New Revolving Lender shall be subject to the consent of the Agent and JPMorgan in its capacity as LC Issuer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If the Company shall not have
arranged any Proposed New Revolving Lender(s) to commit to the shortfall from the Revolving Lender Increase Notices, then the Company shall be deemed to have reduced the amount of its Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice to the aggregate amount
set forth in the Revolving Lender Increase Notices. Based upon the Revolving Lender Increase Notices, any allocations made in connection therewith and any notice regarding any Proposed New Revolving Lender, if applicable, the Agent shall notify the
Company and all of the Lenders (including the Term Loan Lenders) on or before the Business Day immediately prior to the proposed effective date of the amount of each Revolving Lender’s and Proposed New Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan
Commitment (the “Effective Revolving Commitment Amount”) and the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, which amounts shall be effective on the following Business Day. Any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment
shall be subject to the following conditions precedent: (I) as of the date of the Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice and as of the proposed effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment all representations and
warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as though made on such date (except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall
have been true and correct on and as of such earlier date) and no event shall have occurred and then be continuing which constitutes a Default or Unmatured Default, (II) the Borrowers, the Agent, JPMorgan in its capacity as LC Issuer, and each
Proposed New Revolving Lender or Revolving Lender that shall have agreed to provide a “Revolving Loan Commitment” in support of such increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall have executed and delivered a Commitment and
Acceptance, (III) counsel for the Borrowers and for the Guarantors shall have provided to the Agent supplemental opinions in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and (IV) the Borrowers and each Proposed New Revolving Lender shall
otherwise have executed and delivered such other instruments and documents as may be required under Article IV or that the Agent shall have

  

 - 34 - 








 
reasonably requested in connection with such increase. If any fee shall be charged by the Lenders in connection with any such increase, such fee shall be in accordance with then prevailing market
conditions, which market conditions shall have been reasonably documented by the Agent to the Company. No less than two (2) Business Days prior to the effective date of the increase of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, the Agent shall
notify the Company of the amount of the fee to be charged by the Revolving Lenders, and the Company may, at least one (1) Business Day prior to such effective date, cancel its request for the commitment increase. If the commitment increase is
cancelled pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Company’s cancelled increase request shall not be counted towards the Company’s two increase requests permitted by the first sentence of this Section 2.5(c). Upon
satisfaction of the conditions precedent to any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, the Agent shall promptly advise the Company and each Lender (including the Term Loan Lenders) of the effective date of such increase. Upon the
effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment that is supported by a Proposed New Revolving Lender, such Proposed New Revolving Lender shall be a party to this Agreement as a Revolving Lender and shall have the rights and
obligations of a Revolving Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Revolving Lender to increase its Revolving Loan Commitment hereunder at any time. 
 (ii) For purposes of this clause (ii), (A) the term “Buying Lender(s)” shall mean (1) each Revolving Lender the
Effective Revolving Commitment Amount of which is greater than its Revolving Loan Commitment prior to the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and (2) each Proposed New Revolving Lender that is allocated an
Effective Revolving Commitment Amount in connection with any Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice and (B) the term “Selling Lender(s)” shall mean each Revolving Lender whose Revolving Loan Commitment is not being increased from
that in effect prior to such increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. Effective on the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to clause (i) above, each Selling Lender hereby sells, grants,
assigns and conveys to each Buying Lender, without recourse, warranty, or representation of any kind, except as specifically provided herein, an undivided percentage in such Selling Lender’s right, title and interest in and to its outstanding
Revolving Loans in the respective amounts and percentages necessary so that, from and after such sale, each such Selling Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans shall equal such Selling Lender’s Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share (calculated based
upon the Effective Revolving Commitment Amounts) of the outstanding Revolving Loans of each Borrower in each Agreed Currency. Effective on the effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to clause
(i) above, each Buying Lender hereby purchases and accepts such grant, assignment and conveyance from the Selling Lenders. Each Buying Lender hereby agrees that its respective purchase price for the portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans
purchased hereby shall equal the respective amount of each Agreed Currency necessary so that, from and after such payments, each Buying Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans shall equal such Buying Lender’s Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share
(calculated based upon the Effective Revolving Commitment Amounts) of the outstanding Revolving Loans of each Borrower in each Agreed Currency. Such amounts shall be payable on the effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Agent. The Agent, in turn, shall wire transfer any such funds received to the Selling Lenders, in same day funds, for the sole account of the Selling Lenders. Each Selling Lender
hereby represents and warrants to each

  

 - 35 - 








 
Buying Lender that such Selling Lender owns the Revolving Loans being sold and assigned hereby for its own account and has not sold, transferred or encumbered any or all of its interest in such
Revolving Loans, except for participations which will be extinguished upon payment to Selling Lender of an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans being sold by such Selling Lender. Each Buying Lender hereby acknowledges and
agrees that, except for each Selling Lender’s representations and warranties contained in the foregoing sentence, each such Buying Lender has entered into its Commitment and Acceptance with respect to such increase on the basis of its own
independent investigation and has not relied upon, and will not rely upon, any explicit or implicit written or oral representation, warranty or other statement of the Lenders or the Agent concerning the authorization, execution, legality, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The Borrowers hereby agree to compensate each Selling Lender for all losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by each Revolving Lender in
connection with the sale and assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan hereunder on the terms and in the manner as set forth in Section 3.4. 
 2.6. Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $2,000,000 or the Approximate Equivalent Amount of any Agreed Currency other than Dollars (and in
multiples of $1,000,000 or the Approximate Equivalent Amount of any Agreed Currency other than Dollars if in excess thereof), and each Floating Rate Advance (other than an Advance to repay Swing Line Loans) shall be in the minimum amount of $250,000
(and in multiples of $250,000 if in excess thereof), provided, however, that any Floating Rate Advance of Revolving Loans may be in the amount of the Available Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. In addition, the Borrowers shall select
Eurocurrency Interest Periods under Sections 2.9 and 2.10 so that no more than ten (10) Interest Periods shall be outstanding at any one time. The initial Revolving Loan from any Lender or Affiliate to each Dutch Borrower shall at all times be
at least €50,000 (or its equivalent in another Agreed Currency). 
 2.7. Prepayments; Termination. 
 (a) Optional Principal Payments. The Borrowers may from time to time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Floating Rate
Advances (other than Swing Line Loans), or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $250,000 or any integral multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) with notice to the
Agent by 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of repayment. The Company may at any time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Swing Line Loans, or, in a minimum amount of $100,000 and increments of $50,000 in excess thereof, any portion
of the outstanding Swing Line Loans, with notice to the Agent and the Swing Line Lender by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of repayment. The Borrowers may from time to time pay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts
required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Eurocurrency Advances, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $2,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency
Advances upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent. 
  

 - 36 - 








 (b) Mandatory Prepayments/Reductions in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.

  

	 	(i)	Generally. If at any time, other than solely as a result of currency rate fluctuations, (A) the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit
Exposure exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, (B) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Eurocurrency Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars exceeds the Maximum Foreign Currency Amount or (C) the aggregate Dollar Amount of
all Revolving Loans made to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers exceeds the Maximum Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Amount, the Borrowers, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, shall immediately prepay Revolving Loans (to be applied to such
Revolving Loans as the applicable Borrower shall direct at the time of such payment) in an aggregate amount such that after giving effect thereto (x) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure is less than or equal to the Aggregate
Revolving Loan Commitment, (y) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Eurocurrency Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars is less than or equal to the Maximum Foreign Currency Amount, and (z) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Revolving
Loans made to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers is less than or equal to the Maximum Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Amount. 

  

	 	(ii)	Currency Fluctuations. If at any time solely as a result of currency rate fluctuations (A) the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit
Exposure exceeds 105% of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, (B) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Eurocurrency Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars exceeds 105% of the Maximum Foreign Currency Amount or (C) the aggregate
Dollar Amount of all Revolving Loans made to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers exceeds 105% of the Maximum Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Amount, the Borrowers, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, shall within five (5) Business Days
of such occurrence prepay Revolving Loans (to be applied to such Revolving Loans as the applicable Borrower shall direct at the time of such payment) in an aggregate amount such that after giving effect thereto (x) the Aggregate Outstanding
Revolving Credit Exposure is less than or equal to the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, (y) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Eurocurrency Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars is less than or equal to the Maximum Foreign Currency
Amount, and (z) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Revolving Loans made to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers is less than or equal to the Maximum Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Amount. 

  

	 	(iii)	 Asset Sale. Not later than the third Business Day following receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Borrowers shall prepay
outstanding Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received with respect thereto (subject to the provisions regarding application of prepayments set forth below), provided that no such prepayment shall be required hereunder
unless, and only to that extent that, the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales during any four fiscal quarter period exceed $50,000,000; provided, further, that no



  

 - 37 - 









	 	 
mandatory prepayment or reduction in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.7(b)(iii) on account of such Net Cash Proceeds if, and to the extent
that, the Company notifies the Agent in writing within three Business Days following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds of its or its Subsidiary’s good faith intention to apply such Net Cash Proceeds to the acquisition of other assets or
Property to be used in its business within 120 days following the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, with the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds unused after such 120-day period to be treated as Net Cash Proceeds in accordance with this
Section 2.7(b)(iii). Amounts to be applied pursuant to this Section 2.7(b)(iii) shall be applied first to the Term Loans (ratably to the Initial Term Loans and the Incremental Term Loans, in each case, in accordance with the
principal amounts thereof), with such prepayment applied ratably to reduce all remaining outstanding installments thereof, second to Swing Line Loans, third to Revolving Loans that are Floating Rate Loans and fourth to Revolving
Loans that are Eurocurrency Loans, in each case, together with accrued interest on the Loans being prepaid. All prepayments required by this Section 2.7(b)(iii) shall be subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by
Section 3.4, but without penalty or premium. On each date on which a prepayment of Revolving Loans under this Section 2.7(b)(iii) is required, or would be required but for the fact that no Revolving Loans are then outstanding: (A) the
Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be reduced, ratably among the Revolving Lenders, in an amount equal to the total amount of the required prepayment, regardless of whether sufficient Revolving Loans are outstanding for such amount to be
applied as a prepayment; (B) if, after giving effect the reduction required pursuant to clause (A) above, the aggregate undrawn stated amount under all Facility LCs outstanding at such time exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment,
the Company shall pay to the Agent an amount equal to such excess, which funds shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral Account for so long as such excess shall exist, subject to Section 8.1 in the event that a Default shall have occurred
and be continuing; and (C) the Company shall deliver to the Agent a certificate signed by a Financial Officer setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and/or reduction in Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment. 


 (c) Termination. Notwithstanding the termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments or
the Term Loan Commitments hereunder or the occurrence of the Revolving Loan Termination Date, until all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been indefeasibly and fully paid and satisfied in cash and all
financing arrangements between the Borrowers and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been terminated, all of the rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive. 
 2.8. Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for New Advances; Funding of Advances. The applicable Borrower, or the Company on
its behalf, shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto from time to time. The applicable Borrower, or the Company on its behalf, shall give the Agent irrevocable notice (a
“Borrowing Notice”) by (x) e-mail, telephone or telecopy, if with respect to

  

 - 38 - 








 
an Advance denominated in Dollars and (y) telecopy, if with respect to an Advance denominated in euros or Pounds Sterling, not later than (i) 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Borrowing
Date of each Floating Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan), (ii) 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) three Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars and (iii) 10:00 a.m. (London time) three
Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, specifying: 
  

	 	(i)	the applicable Borrower with respect to such Advance, 

  

	 	(ii)	the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such Advance, 

  

	 	(iii)	the aggregate amount of such Advance and whether such Advance consists of Revolving Loans or Term Loans, 

  

	 	(iv)	the Type of Advance selected, 

  

	 	(v)	in the case of each Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency applicable thereto, and 

  

	 	(vi)	the location and number of the account of such Borrower to which funds are to be disbursed. 

 Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Notice in accordance with this Section, the Agent shall advise each Revolving Lender of the details thereof and the amount of the Loan to be made by such Lender
as part of the requested Advance. 
 Not later than noon (Chicago time) on each Borrowing Date, each applicable Lender shall make available its
Loan or Loans in immediately available funds in the applicable Agreed Currency in Chicago to the Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII, unless the Agent has notified the Lenders that such Loan is to be made available to the
applicable Borrower at the Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office, in which case each Lender shall make available its Loan or Loans, in funds immediately available to the Agent at its Eurocurrency Payment Office, not later than 1:00 p.m. (local
time in the city of the Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office) in the applicable Agreed Currency. The Agent will make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the applicable Borrower at the Agent’s aforesaid address. 

Each Lender at its option may make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan (and in
the case of an Affiliate, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 3.1 through 3.6 and 9.6) shall apply to such Affiliate to the same extent as to such Lender); provided that any exercise of such option shall not
affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 2.9.
Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances. Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Eurocurrency Advances pursuant
to this Section 2.9 or are repaid in accordance with Section 2.1, 2.2(c) or 2.7. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall continue as a Eurocurrency Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor,

  

 - 39 - 








 
at which time such Eurocurrency Advance (other than Eurocurrency Advances in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars) shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless
(a) such Eurocurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.1, 2.2(c) or 2.7 or (b) the applicable Borrower, or the Company on its behalf, shall have given the Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below)
requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Advance continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period. Unless a Conversion/Continuation Notice shall have timely been given in accordance with the
terms of this Section 2.9, Eurocurrency Advances in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall automatically continue as Eurocurrency Advances in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one (1) month. Subject to the terms of
Section 2.6, the applicable Borrower, or the Company on its behalf, may elect from time to time to convert all or any part of a Floating Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan) into a Eurocurrency Advance. The applicable Borrower, or the
Company on its behalf, shall give the Agent irrevocable notice (a “Conversion/Continuation Notice”) by (x) e-mail, telephone or telecopy, if with respect to an Advance denominated in Dollars and (y) telecopy, if with respect to
an Advance denominated in euros or Pounds Sterling, of each conversion of a Floating Rate Advance into a Eurocurrency Advance or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least (x) three Business Days
prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation of an Advance in Dollars and (y) four Business Days prior to the date of the requested continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, specifying:

  

	 	(i)	the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or continuation, 

  

	 	(ii)	the aggregate amount and Type of the Advance which is to be converted or continued and whether such Advance consists of Revolving Loans or Term Loans, and


  

	 	(iii)	the amount of such Advance which is to be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Advance and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.


 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Eurocurrency Advances in an Agreed Currency may be converted and/or continued
as Eurocurrency Advances only in the same Agreed Currency. 
 2.10. Changes in Interest Rate, etc. Each Floating Rate
Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made or is automatically converted from a Eurocurrency Advance into a Floating Rate
Advance pursuant to Section 2.9, to but excluding the date it is paid or is converted into a Eurocurrency Advance pursuant to Section 2.9 hereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Each Swing Line Loan shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the day such Swing Line Loan is made to but excluding the date it is paid, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Changes in the rate of
interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Advance will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount

  

 - 40 - 








 
thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined by the Agent as
applicable to such Eurocurrency Advance based upon the applicable Borrower’s selections under Sections 2.8 and 2.9 and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Borrower may select an
Interest Period that ends after the Revolving Loan Termination Date. 
 2.11. Rates Applicable After Default.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.8, 2.9 or 2.10, during the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Company (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required
Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that no Advance denominated in Dollars may be made as, converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Advance
and no Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars may have an Interest Period longer than one (1) month. During the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Company (which notice may
be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that (i) each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest for the
remainder of the applicable Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum, (ii) each Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate in effect from time
to time plus 2% per annum, (iii) the LC Fee shall be increased by 2% per annum and (iv) any other amount due and payable hereunder (including interest and fees) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate
in effect from time to time plus 2% per annum, provided that, during the continuance of a Default under Section 7.6 or 7.7, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above and the increase in the LC Fee and
other amounts set forth in clause (iii) and (iv) above shall be applicable to all Credit Extensions without any election or action on the part of the Agent or any Lender. 
 2.12. Method of Payment. All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in
immediately available funds to the Agent (i) at the Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIII in immediately available funds with respect to Advances or other Obligations denominated in Dollars and (ii) at the Agent’s
Eurocurrency Payment Office in immediately available funds with respect to any Advance or other Obligations denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, or at any other Lending Installation of the Agent specified in writing by the Agent to
the Borrowers, by noon (local time) on the date when due and shall (except (i) with respect to repayments of Swing Line Loans, (ii) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations for which the LC Issuer has not been fully indemnified by the
Lenders, or (iii) as otherwise specifically required hereunder) be applied ratably by the Agent among the Lenders. Each Advance shall be repaid or prepaid in the Agreed Currency in which it was made in the amount borrowed and interest payable
thereon shall also be paid in such Agreed Currency. Each payment delivered to the Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Agent received at its address specified
pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Agent from such Lender. The Agent is hereby authorized to charge the account of each Borrower maintained with JPMorgan (or its Affiliates) for each payment
of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees as it becomes due hereunder (it being understood and agreed that the Agent shall not charge the account of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower for

  

 - 41 - 








 
any payment of principal or interest on Loans made to the Company, or for fees incurred by the Company). Each reference to the Agent in this Section 2.12 shall also be deemed to refer, and
shall apply equally, to the LC Issuer, in the case of payments required to be made by the Company to the LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.19.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Advance in any
currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that different types of such Agreed Currency (the “New Currency”) are introduced and the type of
currency in which the Advance was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the applicable Borrower is not able to make payment to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by
such Borrower hereunder in such currency shall be made to the Agent in such amount and such type of the New Currency or Dollars as shall be equivalent to the amount of such payment otherwise due hereunder in the Original Currency, it being the
intention of the parties hereto that the applicable Borrower take all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any
Advance in any currency other than Dollars, any Borrower is not able to make payment to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in the type of currency in which such Advance was made because of the imposition of any such currency control or
exchange regulation, then such Advance shall instead be repaid when due in Dollars in a principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such Advance. 
 2.13. Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an
account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time
hereunder. 
 (b) The Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (a) the amount of each Loan made
hereunder, the Type thereof and the Agreed Currency and Interest Period (if any) with respect thereto, (b) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder,
(c) the original stated amount of each Facility LC and the amount of LC Obligations outstanding at any time, and (d) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (i) and (ii) above shall be prima facie
evidence (absent manifest error) of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect
the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms. 
 (d) Any Lender may request that its
Loans be evidenced by a promissory note or, in the case of the Swing Line Lender, promissory notes representing its Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans, respectively, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1, with appropriate changes for notes
evidencing Swing Line Loans, or representing its Term Loans substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 (each a “Note”). In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Note or Notes payable to the order of
such Lender in a form supplied

  

 - 42 - 








 
by the Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by any such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (prior to any assignment pursuant to Section 12.3) be represented by one or more Notes
payable to the order of the payee named therein, except to the extent that any such Lender subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in paragraphs (i) and
(ii) above. 
 2.14. Telephonic Notices. To the extent specified in Sections 2.8 and 2.9, each Borrower hereby
authorizes the Lenders and the Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be
acting on behalf of such Borrower, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given telephonically. Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to
the Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is requested by the Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice signed by a Financial Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Agent
and the Lenders, the records of the Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error. 
 2.15. Interest Payment
Dates; Interest and Fee Basis. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, on any date on which the Floating Rate Advance is prepaid,
whether due to acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on that portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Floating Rate Advance converted into a Eurocurrency Advance on a day other than a Payment Date shall be payable on
the date of conversion. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Eurocurrency Advance is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at
maturity. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest accrued on all Floating Rate Loans
shall be calculated for actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) on the basis of a year of 365 or, when appropriate, 366 days. All interest accrued on Eurocurrency Loans and all fees hereunder shall be computed on the
basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed with respect to Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be computed on a basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including
the first day but excluding the last day). Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance or Swing Line Loan is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to noon (local time) at the place of payment.
If any payment of principal of or interest on an Advance, Swing Line Loan, fees or other Obligations shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a
principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with such payment. 
 2.16. Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment reduction notice,
Borrowing Notice, Swing Line Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder. Promptly after notice from the LC Issuer, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each request for issuance of
a Facility LC hereunder. The Agent will notify each

  

 - 43 - 








 
Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Eurocurrency Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base
Rate. The Agent will also provide notices to the Lenders as and when required by Sections 2.2(b) and 2.5(c). 
 2.17. Lending
Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans and its participation in any LC Obligations and the LC Issuer may book the Facility LCs at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, and may change its
Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Loans, Facility LCs, participations in LC Obligations and any Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or the
LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the benefit of any such Lending Installation. Each Lender and the LC Issuer may, by written notice to the Agent and the Borrowers in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement or additional Lending
Installations through which Loans will be made by it or Facility LCs will be issued by it and for whose account Loan payments or payments with respect to Facility LCs are to be made. 
 2.18. Non-Receipt of Funds by the Agent. Unless a Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Agent prior to the date on
which it is scheduled to make payment to the Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does
not intend to make such payment, the Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender
or such Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Agent, repay to the Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day
during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Agent until the date the Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such
day for the first three days and, thereafter, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan or (y) in the case of payment by a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan. 
 2.19. Facility LCs. 
 2.19.1. Issuance. The LC Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue standby and commercial Letters of Credit in Dollars (each, together with the
Existing Letters of Credit deemed issued hereunder pursuant to Section 2.19.13, a “Facility LC”) and to renew, extend, increase, decrease or otherwise modify each Facility LC (“Modify,” and each such action a
“Modification”), from time to time from and including the Closing Date and prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date upon the request of the Company; provided that immediately after each such Facility LC is issued or Modified,
(i) the aggregate amount of the outstanding LC Obligations shall not exceed $60,000,000 and (ii) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. No Facility LC shall have an
expiry date later than the earlier of (x) the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date and (y) one year after its issuance (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or
extension). 
  

 - 44 - 








 2.19.2. Participations. Upon the issuance or Modification by the LC
Issuer of a Facility LC in accordance with this Section 2.19, the LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender shall be
deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the LC Issuer, a participation in such Facility LC (and each Modification thereof) and the related LC Obligations in proportion to its
Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share. 
 2.19.3. Notice. Subject to Section 2.19.1, the Company shall give
the LC Issuer notice prior to 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least five Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of each Facility LC, specifying the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the
expiry date of such Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, the LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent, and the Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender, of the contents thereof and of the amount of each Revolving Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility LC. The issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the
conditions precedent set forth in Article IV (the satisfaction of which the LC Issuer shall have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility LC shall be satisfactory to the LC Issuer and that the Company shall
have executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility LC as the LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Facility LC Application”). In the event of any
conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control. 
 2.19.4. LC Fees. The Company shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Pro Rata Shares, with respect to each
Facility LC, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Loans in effect from time to time on the average daily undrawn stated amount under such Facility LC, such fee to be payable in arrears on each
Payment Date (the “LC Fee”). The Company shall also pay to the LC Issuer for its own account (x) at the time of issuance of each Facility LC, a fronting fee equal to 0.125% of the stated amount available for drawing under such
Facility LC (or such other amount as the Company and the LC Issuer shall agree) and (y) documentary and processing charges in connection with the issuance or Modification of and draws under Facility LCs in accordance with the LC Issuer’s
standard schedule for such charges as in effect from time to time. 
 2.19.5. Administration; Reimbursement by
Lenders. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Facility LC of any demand for payment under such Facility LC, the LC Issuer shall notify the Agent and the Agent shall promptly notify the Company and each other Revolving Lender as to the amount
to be paid by the LC Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment date (the “LC Payment Date”). The responsibility of the LC Issuer to the Company and each Revolving Lender shall be only to determine that the documents
(including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity in all

  

 - 45 - 








 
material respects with such Facility LC. The LC Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and administration of the Facility LCs as it does with respect to letters of credit
in which no participations are granted, it being understood that in the absence of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by the LC Issuer, each Revolving Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably liable without regard to the occurrence of
any Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to reimburse the LC Issuer on demand for (i) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment made by the LC Issuer under each Facility LC to the extent
such amount is not reimbursed by the Company pursuant to Section 2.19.6 below, plus (ii) interest on the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Revolving Lender, for each day from the date of the LC Issuer’s demand for such
reimbursement (or, if such demand is made after 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the date on which such Revolving Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it, at a rate of interest per annum equal
to the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first three days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances. 
 2.19.6. Reimbursement by Company. The Company shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by
the LC Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility LC, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that neither the Company nor any Revolving Lender shall hereby be precluded from asserting any claim for
direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by the Company or such Revolving Lender to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented
under any Facility LC issued by it complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (ii) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and
conditions of such Facility LC. All such amounts paid by the LC Issuer and remaining unpaid by the Company shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (x) the rate applicable to Floating Rate
Advances for such day if such day falls on or before the applicable LC Payment Date and (y) the sum of 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls after such LC Payment Date. The LC Issuer
will pay to each Revolving Lender ratably in accordance with its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from the Company for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC
issued by the LC Issuer, but only to the extent such Revolving Lender has made payment to the LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant to Section 2.19.5. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including without
limitation the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance with Section 2.8 and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV), the Company may request an Advance hereunder for the purpose of satisfying any
Reimbursement Obligation. 
 2.19.7. Obligations Absolute. The Company’s obligations under this
Section 2.19 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Company may have or have had against the LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a
Facility LC. The Company

  

 - 46 - 








 
further agrees with the LC Issuer and the Lenders that the LC Issuer and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Company’s Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC
shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or
among the Company, any of its Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Company or of any of its Affiliates
against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee. The LC Issuer shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection
with any Facility LC. The Company agrees that any action taken or omitted by the LC Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Facility LC and the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall
be binding upon the Company and shall not put the LC Issuer or any Lender under any liability to the Company. Nothing in this Section 2.19.7 is intended to limit the right of the Company to make a claim against the LC Issuer for damages as
contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.19.6. 
 2.19.8. Actions of LC Issuer.
The LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Facility LC, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement,
order or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the LC
Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Revolving Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it
shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Revolving Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Section 2.19, the LC Issuer shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Revolving Lenders, and such request and any action taken or
failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Revolving Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any Facility LC. 
 2.19.9. Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, the LC Issuer and the Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees from and
against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, out-of-pocket costs or expenses which such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent by any Person whatsoever)
by reason of or in connection with the issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Facility LC or any actual or proposed use of any Facility LC, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses,
liabilities, out-of-pocket costs or expenses which the LC Issuer may incur by reason of or in connection with (i) the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to the LC Issuer hereunder (but nothing herein contained
shall affect any rights the Company may have against any defaulting Lender) or (ii) by reason of or

  

 - 47 - 








 
on account of the LC Issuer issuing any Facility LC which specifies that the term “Beneficiary” included therein includes any successor by operation of law of the named Beneficiary, but
which Facility LC does not require that any drawing by any such successor Beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to the LC Issuer, evidencing the appointment of such successor Beneficiary; provided that the Company
shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC
Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (y) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying
with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. Nothing in this Section 2.19.9 is intended to limit the obligations of the Company under any other provision of this Agreement. 
 2.19.10. Lenders’ Indemnification. Each Revolving Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Revolving Loan Pro
Rata Share, indemnify the LC Issuer, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Company) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim,
demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying
with the terms and conditions of the Facility LC) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.19 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder. 
 2.19.11. Facility LC Collateral Account. The Company agrees that it will, upon the request of the Agent or the
Required Revolving Lenders and until the final expiration date of any Facility LC and thereafter as long as any amount is payable to the LC Issuer or the Revolving Lenders in respect of any Facility LC, maintain a special collateral account pursuant
to arrangements satisfactory to the Agent (the “Facility LC Collateral Account”) at the Agent’s office at the address specified pursuant to Article XIII, in the name of the Company but under the sole dominion and control of the Agent,
for the benefit of the Lenders and in which the Company shall have no interest other than as set forth in Section 2.7(b) or 8.1. The Company hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the
Lenders and the LC Issuer, a security interest in all of the Company’s right, title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and
performance of the Obligations. The Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the Facility LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit of JPMorgan having a maturity not exceeding 30 days. Nothing in this Section 2.19.11
shall either obligate the Agent to require the Company to deposit any funds in the Facility LC Collateral Account or limit the right of the Agent to release any funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account in each case other than as required by
Section 2.7(b) or 8.1. 
 2.19.12. Rights as a Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, the LC Issuer
shall have the same rights and obligations as any other Lender.

 2.19.13. Transitional Letter of Credit Provisions. From and after the
Closing Date, the letters of credit described on Schedule 2.19.13 (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) shall be deemed to constitute Facility LCs issued pursuant to Section 2.19.1 in which the Lenders participate pursuant to
Section 2.19.2. Fees shall accrue in respect of the Existing Letters of Credit as provided in Section 2.19.4 beginning as of the Closing Date. 
 2.20. Replacement of Lender. If a Borrower is required pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.5 or 3.6 to make any additional or increased payment to any Lender, if any Lender’s obligation to
make or continue, or to convert Floating Rate Advances into, Eurocurrency Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.3 or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender (any Lender so affected an “Affected Lender”), the Company may
elect, if such amounts continue to be charged, such suspension is still effective or such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender, to replace such Affected Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that no Default or Unmatured Default
shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, and provided further that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Agent and (if
such Affected Lender is a Revolving Lender) JPMorgan in its capacity as LC Issuer shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Advances and other Obligations due to the Affected Lender pursuant to an assignment substantially in the form of
Exhibit C and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Affected Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 12.3 applicable to assignments, and
(ii) the Borrowers shall pay to such Affected Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (A) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender by the Borrowers hereunder to and including the
date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.5 and 3.6, and (B) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement
under Section 3.4 had the Loans of such Affected Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender. 
 2.21. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Revolving Lender is a
Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment of such
Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.5(a); 
 (b) the Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding Revolving Credit
Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver
pursuant to Section 8.2), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of
such Defaulting Lender; 
  

 - 49 - 








 (c) if any Swing Line Loans shall be outstanding or any LC Obligations shall exist at the
time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 
  

	 	(i)	the Company shall within one Business Day following notice by the Agent (x) first, prepay such outstanding Swing Line Loans and (y) second, cash collateralize
such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.1 for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; 

  

	 	(ii)	if the Company cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (i) above, the Company shall not be required to pay
any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.19.4 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; and 

  

	 	(iii)	if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is not cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the LC
Issuer or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.19.4 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the LC Issuer until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized;


 (d) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue or Modify
any Facility LC, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by cash collateral provided by the Company in accordance with Section 2.21(c); and 
 (e) any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any
amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.2 but excluding Section 2.20) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Agent in a segregated account and,
subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to
the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder, (iii) third, to the funding of any Revolving Loan or the funding or cash collateralization of any participating interest in any Swing
Line Loan or Facility LC in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Agent and the Company, held in such
account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by the Company or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by
a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of draws under Facility LCs with respect to which the LC Issuer has funded its
participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all Revolving Lenders that
are not Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender. 
  

 - 50 - 








 In the event that the Agent, the Company, the LC Issuer and the Swing Line Lender each agrees that a
Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Loan
Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold the Revolving Loans in each Agreed Currency of each
Borrower in accordance with its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share. For purposes of this Section 2.21, (x) “Swing Line Exposure” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender at any time, such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving
Loan Pro Rata Share of the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Loans outstanding at such time and (y) “LC Exposure” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender at any time, such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan
Pro Rata Share of the LC Obligations at such time. 
 Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by any Borrower
of any of its rights or remedies (whether in equity or law) against any Lender which fails to fund any of its Loans hereunder at the time or in the amount required to be funded under the terms of this Agreement. 
 2.22. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due from any
Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be
that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Agent’s main office in Chicago, Illinois on the Business Day preceding that on which the final,
non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the applicable Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to
the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable
banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, such
Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified
currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a
disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 11.2, such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the applicable Borrower. 
 2.23. Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in Article II with respect to any Advance in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, if there shall occur on
or prior to the date of such Advance any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls

  

 - 51 - 








 
which would in the reasonable opinion of the applicable Borrower, the Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders make it impracticable for the Eurocurrency Loans comprising such Advance to be
denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by the applicable Borrower, then the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to such Borrower and the Revolving Lenders or such Borrower shall give notice thereof to the Revolving Lenders, as the case
may be, and such Eurocurrency Loans shall not be denominated in such currency but shall be made on such Borrowing Date in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related
Borrowing Notice, as Floating Rate Loans, unless the applicable Borrower notifies the Agent at least one Business Day before such date that (a) it elects not to borrow on such date or (b) it elects to borrow on such date in a different
Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Eurocurrency Loans would in the opinion of the Agent and the Required Revolving Lenders be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the
aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice. 
 2.24. Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. The Company
may, at any time on or prior to May 8, 2009 (or such later date as the Agent shall agree in its sole discretion), add as a party to this Agreement not more than two UK Subsidiaries and not more than two Dutch Subsidiaries as “Foreign
Subsidiary Borrowers” hereunder by (a) the execution and delivery to the Agent of a duly completed Assumption Letter by such Subsidiary, with the written consent of each other Borrower, (b) the execution and delivery to the Agent of
such documents, instruments, opinions and certificates as shall be required in order to permit the Borrowers to be in compliance with Section 16.2 in connection with the joinder of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereto and (c) the
execution and delivery to the Agent of such documents, notices, instruments, opinions, documents of title and certificates as shall be required in order to permit the Borrowers to be in compliance with Section 6.21(d) after giving effect to the
joinder of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereto. Upon such execution, delivery and consent, such Subsidiary shall for all purposes be a party hereto as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower as fully as if it had executed and delivered this Agreement.

 ARTICLE III 
 YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES 
 3.1. Yield Protection. If, on or
after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law), or any change in the interpretation or administration
thereof by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer with any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency: 
  

	 	(i)	subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to any Taxes (including UK Tax), or changes the basis of taxation of payments (other than
with respect to Excluded Taxes) to any Lender or the LC Issuer in respect of its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or 

  

 - 52 - 









	 	(ii)	imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances), or


  

	 	(iii)	imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer of making, funding or
maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans, or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer in connection with its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or
participations therein, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein held or interest or LC
Fees received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or the LC Issuer as the case may be, 

 and the result of any of
the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, of making or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans, Revolving Loan Commitment or Term Loan Commitment or of issuing or
participating in Facility LCs or to reduce the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, in connection with such Eurocurrency Loans, Revolving Loan Commitment or Term Loan Commitment,
Facility LCs or participations therein, then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, the Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, for such increased cost or reduction in amount received. 
 3.2.
Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender or the LC Issuer determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or the LC Issuer, any Lending Installation of such Lender or the LC Issuer, or any
corporation controlling such Lender or the LC Issuer is increased as a result of a Change (as defined below), then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, the applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer the amount
necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which such Lender or the LC Issuer determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure, its Term Loans or
Revolving Loan Commitment or Term Loan Commitment or its commitment to issue Facility LCs as the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s policies as to capital adequacy). “Change” means
(i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive

or the LC Issuer. “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines” means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital
regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States implementing the

  

 - 53 - 








 
July 1988 report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices Entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards,” including
transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement. 
 3.3. Availability of
Types of Advances. If (a) any Lender determines that maintenance of its Eurocurrency Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, whether or not having the force of law,
(b) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurocurrency Base Rate or Eurocurrency Base Rate, as applicable, for any
Eurocurrency Advance for any Interest Period or (c) the Required Lenders determine that the Adjusted Eurocurrency Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Base Rate, as applicable, for any Eurocurrency Advance for any Interest Period will not adequately
and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Advance for such Interest Period, then the Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurocurrency Advances and require any
affected Eurocurrency Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4. 
 3.4. Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Eurocurrency Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable
Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurocurrency Advance is not made or continued, or a Floating Rate Advance is not converted into a Eurocurrency Advance, on the date specified by the applicable Borrower
for any reason other than default by the Lenders, or a Eurocurrency Advance is not prepaid on the date specified by such Borrower for any reason, such Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom,
including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Eurocurrency Advance. 
 3.5. Taxes. 
 3.5.1. All payments by the Borrowers to or for
the account of any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes
from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent, (a) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums
payable under this Section 3.5) such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) such Borrower shall make such deductions,
(c) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law and (d) such Borrower shall furnish to the Agent the original copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof within 30 days
after such payment is made. 
 3.5.2. In addition, each Borrower hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp
or documentary taxes related to such Borrower and any other excise or property

  

 - 54 - 








 
taxes, charges or similar levies related to such Borrower which arise from any payment hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise
with respect to, this Agreement or any Note or Facility LC Application (“Other Taxes”). 
 3.5.3. Each
Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent, the LC Issuer and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) related to such
Borrower paid by the Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender as a result of its Revolving Loan Commitment, its Term Loan Commitment, any Loans made by it hereunder, or otherwise in connection with its participation in this Agreement and any liability
(including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days of the date the Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender makes demand therefor pursuant to
Section 3.6. 
 3.5.4. Each Lender agrees that it will, not more than ten Business Days after the date of
this Agreement and at such other times prescribed by applicable law, deliver to each Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as will
demonstrate that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which such Borrower is located or a treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party and will permit payments by such Borrower hereunder
to be made without withholding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America, any Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of
America or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will, not more than ten Business Days after the date of this Agreement, (i) deliver to the Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, and (ii) deliver to the Agent a United
States Internal Revenue Form W-8 or W-9, as the case may be, and certify that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the Company and the Agent
(x) renewals or additional copies of such IRS form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, and (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent IRS forms so
delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent. All documentation, forms or amendments described in the first or second sentence of this Section 3.5.4 shall certify or
otherwise demonstrate that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any income taxes in the applicable jurisdiction, unless an event (including without limitation any change in
treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such documentation inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such
documentation or amendment with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrowers and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of income

  

 - 55 - 








 
tax in such jurisdiction. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption from withholding of income tax in
any such jurisdiction. 
 3.5.5. For any period during which a Lender has failed to provide a Borrower with
appropriate documentation pursuant to Section 3.5.4 (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, occurring subsequent to the
date on which such documentation originally was required to be provided or, in the case of a Lender that became a party to this Agreement pursuant to an assignment, the assigning Lender was entitled, at the time of the assignment, to receive
additional amounts with respect to such withholding tax pursuant to this Section 3.5), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 by such Borrower with respect to Taxes imposed by the jurisdiction in which
such Borrower is located provided that, should a Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required under Section 3.5.4, the
Borrowers shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes. 
 3.5.6. If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental authority of the United States or any other country or any political subdivision thereof asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to
or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate documentation was not delivered or properly completed, because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered its exemption from withholding ineffective,
or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax, withholding therefor, or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including taxes imposed by any
jurisdiction on amounts payable to the Agent under this subsection, together with all costs and expenses related thereto (including attorneys fees and time charges of attorneys for the Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the Agent). The
obligations of the Lenders under this Section 3.5.6 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required. 

  

	 	(f)	 A Borrower is not required to make an increased payment to a Lender under paragraph (e) above for a Tax Deduction in respect of tax imposed by the
United Kingdom from a payment of interest on a Loan, if on the date on which the payment falls due the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a Tax Deduction if it was a Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or
has ceased to be a Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any



  

 - 58 - 









	 	 
change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or any published practice or concession of any relevant
taxing authority; or 


  

	 	(i)	(A) the relevant Lender is a Qualifying Lender solely under sub-paragraph (i)(B) of the definition of Qualifying Lender; 

 (B) an officer of H.M. Revenue & Customs has given (and not revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 931 of the
Income Tax Act 2007 (as that provision has effect on the date on which the relevant Lender became a party hereto) which relates to that payment and that Lender has received from such Borrower or the Company a certified copy of that Direction; and

 (C) the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction in the absence of that Direction; or 

 

	 	(ii)	the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the Borrower making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax
Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under paragraph (i) below. 

  

	 	(g)	If a Borrower is required to make a Tax Deduction, that Borrower shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the
time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law. 

  

	 	(h)	Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Borrower making that Tax Deduction shall deliver
to the Agent for the Lender entitled to the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Lender that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority. 

  

	 	(i)	A Treaty Lender and each Borrower which makes a payment to which that Treaty Lender is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for
that Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without a Tax Deduction. 

  

	 	(j)	Each Borrower shall (within 3 Business Days of demand by the Agent) pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Protected
Party determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of UK Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Loan Document. 

  

	 	(k)	Paragraph (j) above shall not apply with respect to any UK Tax assessed on a Protected Party: 

  

	 	(A)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Protected Party is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Protected Party is
treated as resident for tax purposes; or 

  

 - 59 - 









	 	(B)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Protected Party’s facility office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,


 if that UK Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any
sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Protected Party. 
  

	 	(l)	Furthermore, paragraph (j) above shall not apply to the extent a loss, liability or cost: 

  

	 	(A)	is compensated for by an increased payment under paragraphs (c) to (h) above; or 

  

	 	(B)	would have been compensated for by an increased payment under paragraphs (c) to (h) above but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions
in paragraph (f) applied. 

  

	 	(m)	A Protected Party making, or intending to make a claim under paragraph (j) above shall promptly notify the Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise
to the claim, following which the Agent shall notify the Borrower. 

  

	 	(n)	A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from a Borrower under paragraph (j), notify the Agent. 

  

	 	(o)	If a Borrower makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Lender determines that: 

  

	 	(A)	a Tax Credit is attributable to that Tax Payment; and 

  

	 	(B)	that Lender has obtained, utilized and retained that Tax Credit, 

 the relevant Lender shall pay an amount to the Borrower which that Lender determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been
made by the Borrower. 
  

	 	(p)	Each Borrower shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Lender against any cost, loss or liability that Lender incurs in relation to all stamp
duty, registration and other similar UK Taxes payable in respect of any Loan Document (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any such UK Tax arising in connection with an assignment or transfer by that Lender of its rights under any Loan Document).


  

	 	(q)	All amounts set out, or expressed to be payable under a Loan Document by any party to a Lender which (in whole or part) constitute the consideration for VAT purposes
shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (r) below, if VAT is chargeable on any supply made by any Lender to any party under a Loan Document, that party shall pay to
the Lender (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Lender shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such party). 

  

 - 60 - 









	 	(r)	Where a Loan Document requires any party to reimburse a Lender for any costs or expenses, that party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Lender against
all VAT incurred by the Lender in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that the Lender reasonably determines that neither it nor any other member of any group of which it is a member for VAT purposes is entitled to credit or repayment from
the relevant tax authority in respect of the VAT. 

 3.7. Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the
extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurocurrency Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrowers to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.5 and 3.6 or to avoid the
unavailability of Eurocurrency Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the applicable
Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be
final, conclusive and binding on such Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Eurocurrency Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Eurocurrency Loan
through the purchase of a deposit of the type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurocurrency Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided
herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the applicable Borrower of such written statement. The obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 shall
survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

 ARTICLE V 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 Each Borrower (as to itself and its Subsidiaries) represents and
warrants to the Lenders that: 
 5.1. Existence and Standing. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is a corporation,
partnership (in the case of Subsidiaries only) or limited liability company duly and properly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, validly existing and (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing under the laws of
its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has all requisite authority to conduct its business in all material respects in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except for any failure (other than by any Loan Party or any
Material Foreign Subsidiary) to be in compliance with the foregoing that could not, individually or collectively, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.2. Authorization and Validity. Each Loan Party has the power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan
Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by
proper corporate proceedings, and the Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of such Loan Party enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or, in the case of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, by any general principles of law limiting its obligations which are
specifically referred to on any legal opinion delivered pursuant to Section 4.2. 
  

 - 65 - 








 5.3. No Conflict; Government Consent. Neither the execution and delivery by each Loan
Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, nor the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate (i) any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree
or award binding on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s articles or certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, articles or certificate of organization,
by-laws, or operating or other management agreement, as the case may be, or (iii) the provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its
Property, is bound (including, without limitation, the Senior Note Indenture, the Senior Notes and the Convertible Note Indenture), or conflict with or constitute a default thereunder, or result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien
in, of or on the Property of the Company or a Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, instrument or agreement. No order, consent, adjudication, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration
with, or exemption by, or other action in respect of any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, which has not been obtained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, is required to be obtained by the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the borrowings under this Agreement, the payment and performance by the Borrowers of the Secured Obligations or the legality, validity, binding effect or
enforceability of any of the Loan Documents. 
 5.4. Financial Statements. (a) The Historical Financial Statements
of the Company and its Subsidiaries heretofore delivered to the Lenders were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in effect on the date such statements were prepared and fairly present the consolidated financial
condition and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries at such dates and the consolidated results of their operations for the periods then ended. 
 (b) All pro forma financial statements or any projections furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary to the Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of, or compliance with,
the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the financial statements that serve as the basis for the computations in the Opening Pro Forma Compliance Certificate), were prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions at the time of
preparation. 
 5.5. Material Adverse Change. Since August 31, 2008, there has been no change in the business,
Property, prospects, condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.6. Taxes. The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all material United States federal tax returns and all other material tax
returns which are required to be filed and have paid all material taxes due pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith
and as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP and as to which no Lien exists. The United States income tax returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than Persons who became Subsidiaries of the Company after
August 31, 2003) through the

  

 - 66 - 








 
fiscal year ended August 31, 2003, are closed for audit by the Internal Revenue Service. No tax liens have been filed and no claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes which
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are adequate. 
 5.7. Litigation and Contingent Obligations. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.7, there is no litigation, arbitration, governmental
investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their officers, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to
prevent, enjoin or delay the making of any Credit Extensions or any other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. Other than any liability incident to any litigation, arbitration or proceeding which (i) could not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) is set forth on Schedule 5.7, the Company and its Subsidiaries have no material Contingent Obligations not provided for or disclosed in the financial statements referred to in Section 5.4.

 5.8. Subsidiaries. Schedule 5.8 contains an accurate list of all Subsidiaries of the Company as of the Closing Date,
setting forth their respective jurisdictions of organization and the percentage of their respective capital stock or other ownership interests owned by the Company or other Subsidiaries. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or
other ownership interests of such Subsidiaries have been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. Schedule 1.2 contains an accurate list of
all of the Company’s Material Domestic Subsidiaries and their respective jurisdictions of organization as of the Closing Date. Schedule 1.3 contains an accurate list of all of the Company’s Material Foreign Subsidiaries and their
respective jurisdictions of organization as of the Closing Date. As of the Closing Date, (i) the aggregate assets of the Company, the Material Domestic Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 1.2 and the Material Foreign Subsidiaries listed on Schedule
1.3 (in the case of such Material Foreign Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) represent 75% or more of the Consolidated Assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (ii) such entities on an aggregate
basis are responsible for 75% or more of the Consolidated Operating Income of the Company and its Subsidiaries. 
 5.9.
Employee Benefit Plans. (a) The Unfunded Liabilities of all Single Employer Plans do not in the aggregate exceed $25,000,000, and no Single Employer Plan has any Unfunded Liabilities for which a minimum funding waiver request under
Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA has been filed or is reasonably anticipated to be filed. Neither the Company nor any other member of the Controlled Group has incurred, or is reasonably expected to incur, any withdrawal
liability to Multiemployer Plans in excess of $20,000,000 in the aggregate. Each Single Employer Plan complies with all applicable requirements of law and regulations, except for any failure to comply that could not reasonably be expected,
individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect; no Reportable Event has occurred with respect to any Plan that, together with all other Reportable Events that have occurred and are continuing, could reasonably be expected to
result in liability to the Company and its Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount in excess of $20,000,000; neither the Company nor any other member of the Controlled Group has withdrawn from any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan or
initiated steps to do so; and no steps have been taken to reorganize any Multiemployer Plan or terminate any Plan under Section 4041(c) or 4042 of ERISA. 
  

 - 67 - 








 (b) Each Foreign Pension Plan is in compliance with all requirements of law applicable
thereto and the respective requirements of the governing documents for such plan except to the extent such non-compliance could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, none of the
Company, its Affiliates or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents has engaged in a transaction that has subjected, or could reasonably be expected to subject, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to a tax or
civil penalty that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, reserves have been established in the financial statements furnished to Lenders in
respect of any unfunded liabilities in accordance with applicable law or, where required, in accordance with ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Pension Plan is maintained. The aggregate unfunded liabilities, with
respect to such Foreign Pension Plans could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. There are no actions, suits or claims (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or threatened against the Company or any of its
Affiliates with respect to any Foreign Pension Plan which could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.10. Accuracy of Information. No information, exhibit or report furnished by any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the Agent or to any Lender in connection with the negotiation
of, or compliance with, the Loan Documents contained any material misstatement of fact or omitted to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in any material respect. 
 5.11. Regulation U. Margin stock (as defined in Regulation U) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the Company
and its Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge, or other restriction hereunder, and none of the Pledged Collateral is margin stock. 
 5.12. Material Agreements. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any charter or other corporate restriction the compliance with which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement to which it is
a party, which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.13. Compliance With Laws. The
Company and its Subsidiaries have complied with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof having jurisdiction over the conduct of their
respective businesses or the ownership of their respective Property, except for any failure to comply with any of the foregoing which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Furthermore, to the extent that any Dutch
Borrower would qualify as a credit institution (kredietinstelling) under the Dutch Financial Supervision Act, it is in compliance therewith. 
  

 - 68 - 








 5.14. Ownership of Properties. On the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries
will have good title, free of all Liens other than those permitted by Section 6.15, to all of the Property and assets reflected in the Company’s most recent consolidated financial statements provided to the Agent as owned by the Company
and its Subsidiaries, except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business, other than defects in title that do not in the aggregate materially detract from the value of the property or assets of the Company and the
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and do not materially impair the use thereof in the operation of the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 
 5.15. Insurance. Schedule 5.15 sets forth a true, complete and correct description of all material insurance maintained by the Company or by the Company for its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date.
As of such date, such insurance is in full force and effect and all premiums have been duly paid. The Company and its Subsidiaries have insurance in such amounts and covering such risks and liabilities as are in accordance with normal industry
practice and have adequate reserves for all deductibles and self-insurance programs. 
 5.16. Environmental Matters. In
the ordinary course of its business, the officers of the Company consider the effect of Environmental Laws on the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which they identify and evaluate potential risks and liabilities
accruing to the Company due to Environmental Laws. On the basis of this consideration, the Company has concluded that compliance with applicable Environmental Laws cannot reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary has received any notice to the effect that its operations are not in material compliance with any of the requirements of applicable Environmental Laws or are the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any
remedial action is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.17. Investment Company Act. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company
“controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 5.18. [Reserved] 
 5.19. Pledge Agreements. Each Pledge Agreement is effective to create
in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the holders of the Secured Obligations, a legal and valid security interest in the Pledged Collateral and, with respect to the U.S. Law Pledge Agreement, when financing statements in appropriate form are
filed in the appropriate filing office in the jurisdiction of organization of each Pledgor, or certificates representing the Pledged Collateral are delivered to the Agent, or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral executes a control agreement in favor
of the Agent, as applicable, the U.S. Law Pledge Agreement will create a valid and perfected first priority security interest in the Pledged Collateral subject thereto, in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the holders of the Secured Obligations.

 5.20. [Reserved] 
  


 - 69 -

Borrower. The performance by any Lender or the Agent of any action required or permitted under the Loan Documents will not (i) to the knowledge of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, violate any law or regulation of such Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower’s Home Country or any political subdivision thereof, (ii) to the knowledge of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, result in any tax (other than any withholding tax for which the Company has provided an indemnity in accordance with

action result in any such tax or other monetary liability to the Lender or the Agent, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, against (x) any such tax or other monetary liability and (y) any
increase in any tax or other monetary liability which results from such action by such Lender or the Agent and, to the extent the Company makes such indemnification, the incurrence of such liability by the Agent or any Lender will not constitute a
Default) or (iii) violate any rule or regulation of any federation or organization or similar entity applicable to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower of which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s Home Country is a member. 
 5.23.2. No Immunity. Neither such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower nor any of its assets is entitled to immunity from suit,

notice shall specify the date as of which such Domestic Subsidiary became a Material Domestic Subsidiary. On or prior to the date 30 days after the date specified in such notice (or such longer period as may be agreed by the Agent in its sole

 - 82 - 








 
deliver to the Agent a supplement to the Domestic Subsidiary Guaranty, together with such supporting documentation, including authorizing resolutions and/or opinions of counsel, as the Agent may

the consummation of such Permitted Acquisition (or such longer period as may be agreed by the Agent in its sole discretion), cause such Material Domestic Subsidiary to merge into, or to transfer all or substantially all of its assets to, the Company
or a Guarantor, and (ii) if any Domestic Subsidiary is a Material Domestic Subsidiary solely because it holds Voting Equity Interests in a Material Foreign Subsidiary, but is not required to pledge such Voting Equity Interests pursuant to the
last sentence of Section 6.21(b), then such Domestic Subsidiary shall not be required to become a Guarantor pursuant to this Section 6.21(a). 
 (b) Material Foreign Subsidiaries. If, at any time after the Closing Date, any Foreign Subsidiary (other than a Foreign Subsidiary listed on Schedule 1.3) shall constitute a Material Foreign
Subsidiary, the Company shall promptly notify the Agent thereof, which notice shall specify the date as of which such Foreign Subsidiary became a Material Foreign Subsidiary. Within 30 days after the date specified in such notice (or such longer

deliver to the Agent a supplement to the U.S. Law Pledge Agreement or a new Foreign Law Pledge Agreement (as determined by the Agent in its discretion), together with such supporting documentation (including, without limitation, additional
Collateral Documents, authorizing resolutions and/or opinions of counsel) as the Agent may reasonably request, in order to create a perfected, first priority security interest in the Equity Interests in such Material Foreign Subsidiary,
provided that such pledges, individually or collectively, with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary shall not exceed the Applicable Pledge Percentage of the Voting Equity Interests in such Foreign Subsidiary. The Company or any particular
Domestic Subsidiary shall not be required to execute and deliver a supplement to the Pledge Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.21(b) if such entity directly holds 35% or less of the Voting Equity Interests in such Foreign Subsidiary and, as a
result of the limitation set forth in the preceding sentence, the Company can comply with this Section 6.21(b) without the pledge of such Voting Equity Interests. 
 (c) Minimum Requirements.

on an aggregate basis shall fail to be responsible for 90% or more of the aggregate operating income of the Company and its Domestic Subsidiaries for the four fiscal quarter period then ended, the Company shall promptly notify the Agent thereof,

necessary to cure the conditions giving rise to such failure. 


  

	 	(ii)	50% of Foreign Subsidiaries. If, at any time after the Closing Date, (x) the aggregate assets of the Company’s Foreign Subsidiaries the Applicable

Subsidiaries) shall fail to represent 50% or more of the aggregate assets of the Company’s Foreign Subsidiaries (in the case of such Foreign Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) or (y) such entities on
an aggregate basis (on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) shall fail to be responsible for 50% or more of the aggregate operating income of the Company’s Foreign Subsidiaries for the four fiscal quarter period then ended,

the Obligations of each Borrower (in the case of such Foreign Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) shall fail to represent 75% or more of the Consolidated Assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries or
(y) such entities on an aggregate basis (in the case of such Foreign Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) shall fail to be responsible for 75% or more of the Consolidated Operating Income of the Company and
its Subsidiaries for the four fiscal quarter period then ended, the Company shall promptly notify the Agent thereof, which notice shall specify the date as of which such failure arose. Within 30 days after the date specified in such notice (or such
longer period as may be agreed by the Agent in its sole discretion), the Company shall, and shall cause its Domestic Subsidiaries (whether or not they are Material Domestic Subsidiaries and whether or not the pledged Subsidiaries are Material
Foreign Subsidiaries) to, comply with Section 6.21(a) and/or (b) (but without duplication of the 30-day grace period provided in this clause (c)(iii)) to the extent necessary to cure the conditions giving rise to such failure.

shall become party to a guaranty of the Senior Note Indebtedness or any other obligation of the Company, the Company shall immediately notify the Agent thereof and cause such Subsidiary to comply with Section 6.21(a) (but without giving

any Subsidiary shall possess any Equity Interests of any such Subsidiary, the Company shall immediately notify the Agent thereof and the Company shall, and/or shall cause each Subsidiary to, if and to the extent that each of them holds any Equity
Interest in any such Subsidiary, immediately execute and deliver to the Agent a supplement to the U.S. Law Pledge Agreement or a new Foreign Law Pledge Agreement (as determined by the Agent in its discretion), together with such supporting
documentation (including, without limitation, additional Collateral Documents, authorizing resolutions and/or opinions of counsel) as the Agent may reasonably request, in order to create a perfected, first priority security interest in all of the
Equity Interests in such Subsidiary securing the Obligations owing by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each other Foreign Subsidiary Borrower.

 ARTICLE VIII 
 ACCELERATION, WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES 
 8.1.
Acceleration. 
 8.1.1. If any Default described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 occurs with respect to any
Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs shall automatically terminate and the Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or
action on the part of the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender and the Company will be and become thereby unconditionally obligated, without any further notice, act or demand, to pay to the Agent an amount in immediately available funds, which funds
shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral Account, equal to the difference of (x) the amount of LC Obligations at such time, less (y) the amount on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account at such time which is free and clear of all
rights and claims of third parties and has not been applied against the Obligations (such difference, the “Collateral Shortfall Amount”). If any other Default occurs, the Required Lenders (or the Agent with the consent of the Required
Lenders) may (a) terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs, or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the
Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrowers hereby expressly waive, and (b) upon notice to the Company and in addition to the continuing right to
demand payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement, make demand on the Company to pay, and the Company will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds
shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account. 
 8.1.2. If at any time while any Default is
continuing, the Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater than zero, the Agent may make demand on the Company to pay, and the Company will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to
the Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account. 
 8.1.3. The Agent may at any time or from time to time after funds are deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, apply such funds to the payment of the Obligations and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and
payable by the Company to the Lenders or the LC Issuer under the Loan Documents. 
  

 - 89 - 








 8.1.4. At any time while any Default is continuing, neither the Company nor
any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Company shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. After this Agreement has terminated in accordance with Section 2.7(c), any funds remaining in
the Facility LC Collateral Account shall be returned by the Agent to the Company or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time. 
 8.1.5. If, within 30 days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue
Facility LCs hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 with respect to a Borrower) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or
entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) shall so direct, the Agent shall, by notice to the Borrowers, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination. 
 8.2. Amendments. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2, the Required Lenders (or the Agent with the consent in writing
of the Required Lenders) and the Borrowers may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the Borrowers hereunder or
waiving any Default hereunder; provided, however, that: 
 (a) no such supplemental agreement shall, without the
consent of each Lender affected thereby (which, in the case of clauses (ii), (iv), (vi) and (vii), shall in all instances be deemed to include each Lender): 
  

	 	(i)	Extend the Revolving Loan Termination Date, or extend the expiry date of any Facility LC to a date after the Revolving Loan Termination Date, or forgive all or any
portion of the principal amount of any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation, or postpone any regularly scheduled payment of principal of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees under
this Agreement. 

  

	 	(ii)	Reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders or any other percentage of Lenders specified to be the applicable percentage in this Agreement to
act on specified matters. 

  

	 	(iii)	Except pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or 2.5(c), increase the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment or the Term Loan Commitment of any Lender hereunder; or increase
the commitment to issue Facility LCs. 

  

	 	(iv)	Permit any Borrower to assign its rights under this Agreement. 

  

	 	(v)	Amend this Section 8.2.

provided in the Collateral Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral. 

  

 - 90 - 









	 	(viii)	(A) Release the Company from its obligations under Section 16.1 or (B) unless at such time no Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers are party hereto, release any
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower from its obligations under any Guaranty. 

  

	 	(ix)	Amend Section 11.2 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby; and 

 (b) without limiting the foregoing requirements, no such supplemental agreement shall (i) alter the order of application of
(x) prepayments hereunder, (y) amounts paid or payable under any Guaranty or (z) proceeds of Collateral under any Pledge Agreement, in each case, without the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders and the Required Term Loan
Lenders, (ii) modify the definition of Required Revolving Lenders without the consent of each of the Required Revolving Lenders or (iii) modify the definition of Required Term Loan Lenders without the consent of each of the Term Loan
Lenders. 
 No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the Agent,
and no amendment of any provision relating to the LC Issuer shall be effective without the written consent of the LC Issuer. No amendment to any provision of this Agreement relating to the Swing Line Lender or any Swing Line Loans shall be affective
without the written consent of the Swing Line Lender. The Agent may waive payment of the fee required under Section 12.3.2. 
 8.3. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders, the LC Issuer or the Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence
therein, and the making of a Credit Extension notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of any Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Credit Extension shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or
partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be
valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.2, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all
shall be available to the Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders until this Agreement terminates as described in Section 2.7(c).

 9.3. Headings. Section headings in the Loan Documents are for convenience of
reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the provisions of the Loan Documents. 
 9.4. Entire
Agreement. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding among the Borrowers, the Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders and supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the Borrowers, the Agent, the LC Issuer and the
Lenders relating to the subject matter thereof other than those contained in the fee letters described in Section 10.13, which shall survive and remain in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement. 
 9.5. Several Obligations; Benefits of this Agreement. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint
and no Lender shall be the partner or agent of any other (except to the extent to which the Agent is authorized to act as such). The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns, provided, however, that the parties
hereto expressly agree that each Arranger shall enjoy the benefits of the provisions of Sections 9.6, 9.10 and 10.11 to the extent specifically set forth therein and shall have the right to enforce such provisions on its own behalf and in its own
name to the same extent as if it were a party to this Agreement. 
 9.6. Expenses; Indemnification. (i) The Company
shall reimburse the Agent and the Arrangers for any costs, internal charges and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys for the Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the Agent)
paid or incurred by the Agent or the Arrangers in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, syndication, distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet), review, amendment, modification, and administration of
the Loan Documents. The Company also agrees to reimburse the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer and the Lenders for any costs, internal charges and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys for
the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer and the Lenders, which attorneys may be employees of the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer or the Lenders) paid or incurred by the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer or any Lender in connection with the
collection and enforcement of the Loan Documents. 
 (ii) The Company hereby further agrees to indemnify the Agent, the
Arrangers, the LC Issuer, each Lender, their respective affiliates, and each of their directors, officers and employees against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses
of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer, any Lender or any affiliate is a party thereto) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents,
the transactions contemplated hereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Credit Extension hereunder except to the extent that they are determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of
competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification. The obligations of the Company under this Section 9.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
  

 - 92 - 








 9.7. Numbers of Documents. All statements, notices, closing documents, and requests
hereunder shall be furnished to the Agent with sufficient counterparts so that the Agent may furnish one to each of the Lenders. 
 9.8. Accounting. Except as provided to the contrary herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted and all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made in accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with that used
in preparing the financial statements referred to in Section 5.4(a), except that any calculation or determination which is to be made on a consolidated basis shall be made for the Company and all of its Subsidiaries, including those
Subsidiaries, if any, which are unconsolidated on the Company’s audited financial statements. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and the Company,
the Agent or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Agent, the Lenders and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the
approval of the Required Lenders), provided that, until so amended, such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and the Company shall provide to the Agent and the Lenders
reconciliation statements showing the difference in such calculation, together with the delivery of monthly, quarterly and annual financial statements required hereunder. 
 9.9. Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative,
unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to
be severable. 
 9.10. Nonliability of Lenders. The relationship between the Borrowers on the one hand and the Lenders,
the LC Issuer and the Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. None of the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Borrower. None of the Agent, the Arrangers,
the LC Issuer nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to any Borrower to review or inform any Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of such Borrower’s business or operations. Each Borrower agrees that none of the Agent, the
Arrangers, the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall have liability to such Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by such Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions
contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought. None of the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and each Borrower hereby waives, releases
and agrees not to sue for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by such Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

information which it may receive from the Borrowers in connection with this Agreement in confidence, except for disclosure (i) to its Affiliates and to the Agent and any other Lender and their respective Affiliates, (ii) to legal counsel,
accountants, and other professional advisors to such Lender or to a Transferee, (iii) to regulatory officials, (iv) to any Person as requested pursuant to or as required by law, regulation, or legal process, (v) to any Person in
connection with any legal proceeding to which it or its Affiliates is a party, (vi) to its direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements or to legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors to such counterparties,
(vii) permitted by Section 12.4, and (viii) to rating agencies if requested or required by such agencies in connection with a rating relating to the Advances hereunder. Without limiting Section 9.4, each Borrower agrees that the
terms of this Section 9.11 shall set forth the entire agreement between such Borrower and each Lender (including the Agent) with respect to any confidential information previously or hereafter received by such Lender in connection with this
Agreement, and this Section 9.11 shall supersede any and all prior confidentiality agreements entered into by such Lender with respect to such confidential information. 
 9.12. Nonreliance. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any margin stock (as defined in Regulation
U) for the repayment of the Credit Extensions provided for herein. 
 9.13. Disclosure. The Borrowers and each Lender
hereby acknowledge and agree that JPMorgan and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with the Company and its Affiliates. 
 9.14. USA PATRIOT ACT; European “Know Your Customer” Checks. 
 9.14.1. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to
obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Borrower, which information includes the name and address of such Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

 9.14.2. If (a) the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation, administration or
application of) any law or regulation made after the date of this Agreement; (b) any change in the status of a Borrower after the date of this Agreement; or (c) a proposed assignment or transfer by a Lender of any of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement to a party that is not a Lender prior to such assignment or transfer, obliges the Agent or any Lender (or, in the case of clause (c) above, any prospective new Lender) to comply with “know your
customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, each Borrower shall promptly upon the request of the Agent or any Lender supply, or procure the supply of, such
documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Agent (for itself or on behalf of any Lender) or any Lender (for itself or, in the case of the event described in clause (c) above, on behalf of any prospective new Lender) in
order for the Agent, such Lender or, in the case of the event described in clause (c) above, any prospective new Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary

  

 - 94 - 








 
“know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each
Lender shall promptly upon the request of the Agent supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Agent (for itself) in order for the Agent to carry out and be satisfied it has complied
with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 9.15. English Language. All certificates, instruments and other documents to be delivered under or supplied in connection with this
Agreement shall be in the English language or shall attach a certified English translation thereof, which translation shall be the governing version. Within one month of the delivery of any financial statements or other information written in a
language other than English, the Company shall deliver to the Agent (for distribution to the Lenders) an English translation of such financial statements. 
 9.16. Borrower Limitations. Each Borrower shall be liable for its Obligations (including, without limitation, Loans extended to it). The Company shall be liable for each Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower’s Obligations. Each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be liable for each other Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s Obligations to extent set forth in its respective Guaranty, but shall in no event be liable for any of the Company’s
Obligations. Each Guarantor shall guaranty the repayment of all Obligations, irrespective of the Borrower that incurs such Obligations. 
 ARTICLE X 
 THE AGENT 
 10.1. Appointment; Nature of Relationship. JPMorgan is hereby appointed by each of the Lenders as its contractual representative
(herein referred to as the “Agent”) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set
forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article X. Notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Agent,” it is expressly
understood and agreed that the Agent shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and that the Agent is merely acting as the contractual representative of the Lenders with only
those duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual representative, the Agent (i) does not hereby assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders,
(ii) is a “representative” of the Lenders within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the Illinois Uniform Commercial Code and (iii) is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of
which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders hereby agrees to assert no claim against the Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty,
all of which claims each Lender hereby waives. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
  

 - 95 - 








 10.2. Powers. The Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan
Documents as are specifically delegated to the Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent shall have no implied duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any
action thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the Agent. 
 10.3. General
Immunity. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrowers, the Lenders or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document
or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such action or inaction is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person.

 10.4. No Responsibility for Loans, Recitals, etc. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or
employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder; (b) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any agreement by an obligor to furnish information directly to each Lender; (c) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article
IV, except receipt of items required to be delivered solely to the Agent; (d) the existence or possible existence of any Default or Unmatured Default; (e) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, sufficiency or genuineness of any Loan
Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith; (f) the value, sufficiency, creation, perfection or priority of any Lien in any collateral security; or (g) the financial condition of any Borrower or any
guarantor of any of the Obligations or of any Borrower’s or any such guarantor’s respective Subsidiaries. 
 10.5.
Action on Instructions of Lenders. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders,
and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Lenders. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any
other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. 
 10.6. Employment of Agents and Counsel. The Agent may execute any of its duties as Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document
by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care. The Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between the Agent and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to the Agent’s duties hereunder and under any other Loan
Document. 
  

 - 96 - 








 10.7. Reliance on Documents; Counsel. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any
Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex, electronic mail message, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and,
in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Agent, which counsel may be employees of the Agent. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Sections 4.1 and 4.3, each Lender that has signed
this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Agent shall
have received notice from such Lender prior to the applicable date specifying its objection thereto. 
 10.8. Agent’s
Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Agent ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares of the applicable amount (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by the Company for which the
Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Company under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of
the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for any expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with any dispute between the Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders) and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any
other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, for any such amounts incurred by or asserted against the Agent in connection with any dispute between the Agent and any Lender
or between two or more of the Lenders), or the enforcement of any of the terms of the Loan Documents or of any such other documents, provided that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing
is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent, (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 3.5.6 shall,
notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.8, be paid by the relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions thereof. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.8 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination
of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such amounts relating solely to the Term Loan Facility (as determined by the Agent in its sole discretion) shall be reimbursed by the Term Loan Lenders ratably in proportion to their respective
Term Loan Pro Rata Shares thereof and any such amounts relating solely to the Revolving Loan Facility (as determined by the Agent in its sole discretion) shall be reimbursement by the Revolving Lenders ratably in proportion to their respective
Revolving Loan Pro Rata Shares thereof. 
 10.9. Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Default or Unmatured Default hereunder unless the Agent has received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement describing such Default or Unmatured Default and stating that such notice is
a “notice of default”. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. 
  

 - 97 - 








 10.10. Rights as a Lender. In the event the Agent is a Lender, the Agent shall have
the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document with respect to its Revolving Loan Commitment, its Term Loan Commitment and its Loans as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the term
“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time when the Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity. The Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and
generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in which the Company or such Subsidiary is not
restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person. 
 10.11. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it
has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Arrangers or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrowers and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Arrangers or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Except for any notice, report, document or other information expressly
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent or Arrangers hereunder, neither the Agent nor the Arrangers shall have any duty or responsibility (either initially or on a continuing basis) to provide any Lender with any notice, report,
document, credit information or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates that may come into the possession of the Agent or Arrangers (whether or not in their
respective capacity as Agent or Arranger) or any of their Affiliates. 
 10.12. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at
any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Agent or, if no successor Agent has been appointed, forty-five days after the retiring Agent gives
notice of its intention to resign. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrowers and the Lenders, a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required
Lenders within thirty days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Agent. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the
Agent may at any time without the consent of any Borrower or any Lender, appoint any of its Affiliates which is a commercial bank as a successor Agent hereunder. If the Agent has resigned and no successor Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may
perform all the duties of the Agent hereunder and the Borrowers shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Agent shall be deemed to be
appointed hereunder until such successor Agent has accepted the appointment. Any such successor Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder
by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Agent, the resigning Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. After the

  

 - 98 - 








 
effectiveness of the resignation of an Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was acting as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event that there is a successor to the Agent by merger, or the Agent assigns its duties and obligations to an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 10.12, then
the term “Prime Rate” as used in this Agreement shall mean the prime rate, base rate or other analogous rate of the new Agent. 
 10.13. Agent and Arranger Fees. Without limiting the continuing applicability of any fee letters delivered in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement, the Company agrees to pay to the Agent
and the Arrangers, for their respective accounts, the fees agreed to by the Borrower and the Arrangers pursuant to the letter agreements among such parties dated October 30, 2008, or as otherwise agreed from time to time. 
 10.14. Delegation to Affiliates. The Borrowers and the Lenders agree that the Agent may delegate any of its duties under this
Agreement to any of its Affiliates. Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the indemnification,
waiver and other protective provisions to which the Agent is entitled under Articles IX and X. 
 10.15. Execution of
Collateral Documents. The Lenders hereby empower and authorize the Agent to execute and deliver to the Loan Parties on their behalf the Pledge Agreement and all related financing statements, agreements, documents or instruments as shall be
necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of the Pledge Agreement. 
 10.16. Guaranty and Collateral Releases. The
Lenders hereby authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to permit the release of any Guarantor from the Domestic Subsidiary Guaranty or of any Lien granted to or held by the Agent upon any Pledged Collateral (i) as described in
Section 6.21(e); (ii) as permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Documents; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, unless such release is required to be
approved by all of the Lenders hereunder. Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release any particular Guarantor or particular types or items of Pledged Collateral pursuant hereto.

 10.17. Dutch Parallel Debt. 
 10.17.1. Each of the Dutch Borrowers and the Company (each a “Parallel Debt Obligor”) hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Agent an amount equal to the aggregate amount payable by it from time to time in respect of (a) its Obligations and (b) each Rate Management Transaction entered into by it with any counterparty that
was a Lender (or an Affiliate thereof) at the time such Rate Management Transaction was entered into (unless the applicable Lender party thereto agreed in writing not be secured pursuant to this Agreement) (the “Swap Obligations”). The
payment undertaking of each Parallel Debt Obligor to the Agent is hereinafter to be referred to as such Parallel Debt Obligor’s “Dutch Parallel Debt”. 
  

 - 99 - 








 10.17.2. The Dutch Parallel Debt of each Parallel Debt Obligor will be
payable in the currency or currencies of the corresponding Obligations and Swap Obligations. 
 10.17.3. Any
obligation under the Dutch Parallel Debt of any Parallel Debt Obligor shall become due and payable (opeisbaar) as and when and to the extent one or more of the corresponding Obligations or Swap Obligations become due and payable. The parties
hereto agree that a Default in respect of the Obligations or Swap Obligations shall constitute a default (verzuim) within the meaning of Article 3:248 Netherlands Civil Code with respect to the relevant Dutch Parallel Debt of a Parallel Debt
Obligor as well without any notice being required therefor. 
 10.17.4. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges
that: 
 (a) the Dutch Parallel Debt of each Parallel Debt Obligor constitutes an undertaking, obligation and
liability of such Parallel Debt Obligor to the Agent which is separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the Obligations and Swap Obligations; and 
 (b) the Dutch Parallel Debt of each Parallel Debt Obligor represents the Agent’s own separate and independent claim
(eigen en zelfstandige vordering) to receive payment of such Dutch Parallel Debt from such Parallel Debt Obligor and shall not constitute the Agent and any holder of Obligations or Swap Obligations as joint creditors (hoofdelijk
schuldeisers) of any Obligation or Swap Obligation, 
 it being understood that the amount which may become payable by a
Parallel Debt Obligor as its Dutch Parallel Debt shall never exceed the total of the amounts which are payable by it under its Obligations and Swap Obligations. 
 10.17.5. For the avoidance of doubt, each Parallel Debt Obligor and the Agent confirm that the claims of the Agent against
each Parallel Debt Obligor in respect of its Dutch Parallel Debt and the claims of any one or more of the holders of Obligations or Swap Obligations against each Parallel Debt Obligor in respect of its Obligations and Swap Obligations payable by it
to such holders of Obligations or Swap Obligations do not constitute common property (gemeenschap) within the meaning of article 3:166 Netherlands Civil Code and that the provisions relating to common property shall not apply. If, however, it
shall be held that such claim of the Agent and such claims of any one or more of the holders of Obligations or Swap Obligations do constitute common property and the provisions relating to common property do apply, the parties agree that the
applicable provisions of this Agreement shall constitute the respective administration agreement (beheersregeling) within the meaning of article 3:168 Netherlands Civil Code. 
 10.17.6. To the extent the Agent irrevocably (onaantastbaar) receives any amount in payment of any Dutch Parallel
Debt, the Agent shall distribute such amount among the holders of Secured Obligations that are creditors of the corresponding Obligations or Swap Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. Each Parallel Debt Obligor
and the Agent agree that upon irrevocable receipt by the Agent of any amount in payment of the Dutch Parallel Debt of any Parallel Debt

  

 - 100 - 








 
Obligor (a “Received Amount”), the corresponding Obligations or Swap Obligations shall be reduced by amounts totaling an amount equal to the Received Amount (a “Deductible
Amount”) in the manner as if the Deductible Amount were received as payment of the relevant Obligations or Swap Obligations on the date of receipt by the Agent of the Received Amount. 
 10.17.7. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, for purposes of a Dutch pledge, any resignation by the Agent is not
effective until its rights under each Dutch Parallel Debt of a Parallel Debt Obligor is assigned to the successor Agent. 
 10.18. French Security. Each Lender, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby appoints the Agent to register, perform and enforce any security interest (sûreté réelle) granted by Actuant International
Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, or any other Loan Party under the laws of the Republic of France in order to secure the performance and payment of the Secured Obligations. 
 10.19. Syndication Agents; Documentation Agents. None of the Lenders identified in this Agreement as a Syndication Agent or
Documentation Agent shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to
have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to such Lenders as it makes with respect to the Agent in Section 10.11. 
 ARTICLE XI 
 SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS 

 11.1. Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any
Borrower becomes insolvent, however evidenced, or any Default occurs, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing
by any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender to or for the credit or account of a Borrower may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the Obligations, or any part thereof, shall then be due
(it being understood and agreed that deposits of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or Indebtedness held or owing by a Lender to or for the credit or account of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be offset by such Lender and applied only toward any
Obligations incurred by or on behalf of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to that Lender). 
 11.2. Ratable Payments. If any
Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure or its Term Loans (other than payments received pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6) in a greater proportion than that
received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and Term Loans held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its
Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and its Term Loan Pro Rata Share of the

  

 - 101 - 








 
Term Loans. If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Secured Obligations or such
amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares, Revolving Loan
Pro Rata Shares and Term Loan Pro Rata Shares, as the case may be. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made. 
 ARTICLE XII 
 BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS;
PARTICIPATIONS 
 12.1. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding

the prior written consent of each Lender, (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3, and (iii) any transfer by Participation must be made in compliance with Section 12.2. Any attempted
assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section 12.1 shall be null and void, unless such attempted assignment or transfer is treated as a participation in accordance with Section 12.3.2. The parties to this
Agreement acknowledge that clause (ii) of this Section 12.1 relates only to absolute assignments and this Section 12.1 does not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or
assignment by any Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or (y) in the case of a Lender which is a Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement and any Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder
unless and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 12.3. The Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person
complies with Section 12.3; provided, however, that the Agent may in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note to direct payments relating to such
Loan or Note to another Person. Any assignee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the
time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Loan (whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to
such Loan. 
 12.2. Participations. 
 12.2.1. Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities
(“Participants”) participating interests in any Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure owing to such Lender, any Term Loans of such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Revolving Loan Commitment or any Term Loan Commitment of such
Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan

  

 - 102 - 








 
Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of its Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and/or Term Loans, as applicable, and the holder of any Note issued to it
in evidence thereof for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrowers and the Agent shall continue
to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. 
 12.2.2. Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents other
than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure, Term Loans, Revolving Loan Commitment, Term Loan Commitment or Facility LC in which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of
the Lender from which such Participant purchased its participation under clauses (i) through (v) of Section 8.2. 
 12.2.3. Benefit of Certain Provisions. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 in respect of its participating interest
in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents, provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in
Section 11.1 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant. The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1, agrees to
share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 11.2 as if each Participant were a Lender. The Borrowers further agree that each Participant shall
be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 9.6 and 9.10 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.3, provided that (i) a Participant shall not
be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.5 or 3.6 than the Lender who sold the participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained such interest for its own account, unless the sale of such
interest to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Company, and (ii) any Participant not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof agrees to comply with the provisions of
Section 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender. 
 12.3. Assignments. 
 12.3.1. Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities
(“Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents subject to the following conditions: 
  

	 	(i)	Each such assignment shall be of a constant and not varying ratable or non-pro rata percentage (as between the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Facility) of the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents; 

  

 - 103 - 









	 	(ii)	Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C or in such other form as may be agreed to by the parties thereto; 

  

	 	(iii)	Each such assignment with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund shall either be in an amount equal to the entire
applicable Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and/or Term Loan Commitment (if any) and Term Loans, as applicable, of the assigning Lender or (unless each of the Company and the Agent otherwise consents;
provided that the consent of the Company shall not be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing) be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000. The amount of the assignment shall be based on the Revolving Loan Commitment or
Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure (if the Revolving Loan Commitment has been terminated) and/or the outstanding Term Loan Commitment (if any) or Term Loans subject to the assignment, determined as of the date of such assignment or as of the
“Trade Date,” if the “Trade Date” is specified in the assignment; 

  

	 	(iv)	Except in the case of an assignment to an existing Lender that has advanced a Revolving Loan to each Dutch Borrower, the amount of such assignment with respect to a
borrowing made to a Dutch Borrower shall always be at least €50,000 (or its equivalent in another Agreed Currency) unless an assignment is made to any Person which qualifies as a professional market party (professionele markt partij)
under the Dutch Financial Supervision Act; 

  

	 	(v)	The Purchaser (A) if it is a Non-U.S. Lender, shall have delivered tax certificates described in Section 3.5, which indicate that such Non-U.S. Lender is
exempt from any withholding tax under the laws of the United States on payments by the Company in such jurisdiction, (B) shall have confirmed that it is exempt from any withholding tax under the laws of the Netherlands on payments by Dutch
Borrowers and (C) shall provide to the Agent for the onward transmission to the relevant UK Borrower, in respect of Loans made to a UK Borrower, a tax certificate in the form set forth in the Exhibit H attached hereto, except, in the case of
clauses (A) and (B), to the extent the assigning Lender was entitled, at the time of the assignment, to receive additional amounts with respect to such withholding taxes pursuant to Section 3.5; and 

  

	 	(vi)	So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no such assignment shall be made to any Person that is not capable of lending (A) Agreed
Currencies to each Borrower and (B) each Type of Loan. 

 12.3.2. Consents. The consent
of the Company shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, provided that the consent of the Company shall not be required if a

  

 - 104 - 








 
Default has occurred and is continuing. The consent of the Agent shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective. The consent of JPMorgan in its capacity as LC Issuer shall be
required for assignments of the Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure (but not Term Loans or any Term Loan Commitment) prior to an assignment becoming effective. Any consent required under this Section 12.3.2 shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 
 12.3.3. Effect; Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the
Agent of an assignment, together with any consents required by Sections 12.3.1 and 12.3.2, and (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Agent), such assignment shall become
effective on the effective date specified in such assignment. The assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding
Revolving Credit Exposure and/or Term Loan Commitment (if any) and Term Loans under the applicable assignment agreement constitutes “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the
Loan Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the
Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the transferor Lender shall be released with respect to the Revolving Loan Commitment and
Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and/or Term Loan Commitment (if any) and Term Loans assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Borrowers, the Lenders or the Agent. In the case of an assignment covering all of the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents which survive payment of the Obligations and termination of the applicable agreement. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.3 shall be treated
for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.2. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.3.3, the
transferor Lender, the Agent and the Borrowers shall, if the transferor Lender or the Purchaser desires that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such
transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Revolving Loan Commitments (or, if the Revolving Loan Commitments have terminated, the
Revolving Loan Credit Exposure) or Term Loan Commitment (if any) and Term Loans, as appropriate, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment. 
 12.3.4. Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in Chicago, Illinois a copy of each assignment agreement delivered to
it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Loan Commitments and Term Loan Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender, and

  

 - 105 - 








 
participations of each Lender in Facility LCs, pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the
Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrowers at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 12.4. Dissemination
of Information. Each Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee
any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries; provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 9.11 of this
Agreement. 
 12.5. Tax Treatment. If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any Transferee which is not
incorporated under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5.4.

 - 109 - 








 ARTICLE XVI 
 GUARANTY 
 16.1. Company Guaranty. In
order to induce the Lenders to extend credit to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers hereunder, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of the
Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. The Company further agrees that the due and punctual payment of such Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain
bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any such Obligation. 
 The Company waives
presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Borrower of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be
affected by (a) the failure of the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise;
(b) any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or release from, any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, or any other Loan Document or agreement; (d) any
default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Obligations; or (e) any other act (other than payment of the Obligations), omission or delay to do any other act which may or might in any manner or to any extent
vary the risk of the Company or otherwise operate as a discharge of a guarantor as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of the Company to subrogation. 
 The Company further agrees that its agreement hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or
similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Agent, the LC Issuer or any
Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender in favor of any Borrower or any other Person. 
 The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Obligations), and shall not be subject to
any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Obligations or otherwise.

 The Company further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise. 
  

 - 110 - 








 In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Agent,
the LC Issuer or any Lender may have at law or in equity against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration,
after notice of prepayment or otherwise, the Company hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Agent, in cash an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such
Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The Company further agrees that if payment in respect of any Obligation shall be due in a currency other than Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than at the address of
the Agent specified in Article XIII and if, by reason of any adoption of, or change in, any law or regulation, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Obligation in such currency
or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the reasonable judgment of the Agent, disadvantageous to the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender, in any material respect, then, at the election of the Agent, the Company shall make payment of
such Obligation in Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or at the address of the Agent specified in Article XIII, and, as a separate and independent obligation, shall indemnify the Agent, the LC
Issuer and each Lender against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment. 
 Upon payment by the Company of any sums as provided above, all rights of the Company against any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall
in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations owed by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to the Agents and the Lenders. 
 Nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of the Company hereunder except the full performance and payment of the Obligations.

 16.2. Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Guaranty. Upon the joinder of any Foreign Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower hereunder, (i) such Foreign Subsidiary shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, execute and deliver in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a guaranty of payment of the Obligations of each other Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower and (ii) each other Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, execute and deliver a guaranty (or, as applicable, a reaffirmation of guaranty) of payment of the Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower, in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, together with such supporting documentation, including authorizing resolutions and/or opinions of counsel, as the Agent may reasonably request. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Dutch Borrower shall be liable under such Guaranty to the extent that, if it were so liable, its entry into such Guaranty would violate sections 2:98c or 2:207 of the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek). 
  

 - 111 - 








 ARTICLE XVII 
 NO NOVATION OF EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT 
 17.1. No Novation of Existing Credit Agreement. It is the intent of the parties hereto that, from and after the Closing Date, this Agreement (i) shall re-evidence, in part, the Company’s obligations and indebtedness under
the Existing Credit Agreement, (ii) is entered into in substitution for, and not in payment of, the obligations and indebtedness of the Company under the Existing Credit Agreement, and (iii) is in no way intended to constitute a novation
of any of the Company’s obligations and indebtedness which were evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including any fee letters or Notes delivered in connection therewith). All Loans made and Obligations
incurred under the Existing Credit Agreement which are outstanding on the Closing Date shall continue as Revolving Loans, Obligations and Secured Obligations under (and shall be governed by the terms of) this Agreement. Without limiting the
foregoing, upon the effectiveness hereof, (i) all Existing Letters of Credit shall continue as Facility LCs under (and shall be governed by the terms of) this Agreement as provided in Section 2.19.13 and (ii) the Agent shall make such
reallocations of each Lender’s share of the outstanding Loans under the Existing Credit Agreement as are necessary in order that each such Lender’s share of the outstanding Loans hereunder reflects such Lender’s ratable share of the
Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and Aggregate Term Loan Commitment hereunder. On the Closing Date, the Company shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders then party to the Existing Credit Agreement, (i) accrued and unpaid
commitment fees under the Existing Credit Agreement through the Closing Date and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on Loans under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement through the Closing Date. 
 17.2. References to This Agreement In Loan Documents. All references herein to “hereunder,” “hereof,” or words of
like import and all references in any other Loan Document to the “Credit Agreement” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Existing Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby (and any section references in such
Loan Documents to the Existing Credit Agreement shall refer to the applicable equivalent provision set forth herein although the section number thereof may have changed). 
 17.3. Departing Lenders. Each Departing Lender has agreed to execute and deliver a Departing Lender Signature Page, pursuant to which such Departing Lender shall cease to be a party to the Existing
Credit Agreement, each Departing Lender’s “Revolving Loan Commitment” under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement shall be terminated and each Departing Lender shall not be a Lender hereunder (provided that the indemnities
and obligations of the Company contained in Section 9.6 of the Existing Credit Agreement in favor of each Departing Lender shall survive the termination of such Departing Lender’s “Revolving Loan Commitment” under the Existing
Credit Agreement).

 (j) with respect to each Pledgor, a filed or, in the case of GB Tools, an unfiled copy of a financing statement

 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent 
 November 10, 2008 
 Page 3 
  

 
“Filing Offices”) with respect to the security interests granted to the Agent pursuant to the U.S. Pledge Agreement (a copy of the UCC Financing Statements being attached as
Schedule III); and 
 (k) such other documents and records, and other certificates, opinions and
instruments and have conducted such investigation as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. 
 The documents
referred to in clauses (a) through (c) above are herein collectively called the “Loan Documents.” The Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Pledgors in their respective capacities as such, are herein collectively
called the “Credit Parties.” 
 For purposes hereof, the following terms have the following meanings:
(a) “Applicable Laws” means those laws, rules and regulations of the State of Illinois, of the State of New York, of the State of Texas and of the United States of America which, in our experience, are normally applicable to
transactions of the type contemplated by the Loan Documents, it being understood, however, that Applicable Laws shall not include securities laws, antitrust laws, and Federal Reserve margin regulations; (b) “Governmental
Authority” means any executive, legislative, judicial, administrative or regulatory body of the State of Illinois, of the State of New York, of the State of Texas or of the United States of America; (c) “Governmental
Approval” means any consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, any Governmental Authority pursuant to Applicable Laws to the extent specifically referred to herein; and
(d) “Applicable Contracts” collectively means those indentures, loans or credit agreements, leases, guarantees, mortgages, security agreements, bonds, notes and other agreements or instruments set forth on Schedule I of the
Officer’s Certificate, which have been identified to us as all the agreements and instruments which could reasonably be expected to contain provisions affecting or purporting to affect the right of any Credit Party to perform its obligations
under the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the breach of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Credit Parties. 
 We are admitted to the Bar in the States of Illinois, New York and Texas. Except as provided in the immediately following paragraph, we express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than
(a) the laws of the State of Illinois, (b) the laws of the State of New York, (c) the laws of the State of Texas, (d) the Delaware General Corporation Law, (e) the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act and (f) the
federal laws of the United States of America to the extent such laws are Applicable Laws or are otherwise specifically referred to herein. 
 With respect to our opinions in paragraph 9 below regarding the perfection of Pledged Collateral, to the extent our opinions are not governed by the laws described in the immediately preceding paragraph, our opinions are based solely on a
review of Sections 9-102, 9-108, 9-203, 9-301, 9-304, 9-305, 9-307, 9-308, 9-310, 9-312, 9-315, 9-501, 9-502, 9-503, 9-504, 9-509, 9-510, 9-516 and 9-521 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the States of Wisconsin and Indiana as printed in the CCH
Secured Transactions Guide as updated through October 14, 2008 (the foregoing states are sometimes herein called the “Designated States” and the Uniform Commercial Codes as adopted and in effect in such Designated States are
sometimes herein called the “Designated UCC’s”). We have not reviewed any other sections of the Designated UCC’s, including any provisions that are referred to in the sections that we have reviewed which are noted above,
nor have we reviewed any local filing rules or any other statutes of the Designated States or judicial decisions construing the laws of the Designated States. By rendering the opinions set forth in paragraph 9 below, we do not intend to indicate
that we are experts on, or qualified to render opinions on, the laws of the Designated States. Accordingly, we caution you that the opinions in









 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent 
 November 10, 2008 
 Page 4 
  

 
paragraph 9 below could be materially affected by other provisions of the Designated UCC’s, other statutes, laws, rules or regulations of the Designated States or judicial decisions of
courts construing the laws of the Designated States. 
 Our opinions are also subject to the following assumptions and
qualifications: 
 II. ASSUMPTIONS 
 We have assumed, with your permission, that: 
 (1) each Credit
Party (other than the Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit Party and the Texas Credit Party) is validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; 
 (2) each of the Credit Parties (other than the Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit
Party and the Texas Credit Party) has the power to execute, deliver and perform all of its obligations under each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. The execution and delivery of each of such Loan Documents and the consummation by each of
the Credit Parties (other than the Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit Party and the Texas Credit Party) of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by requisite corporate and limited
partnership action, as applicable, on the part of each of the Credit Parties (other than the Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit Party and the Texas Credit Party); 
 (3) each of the Loan Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the parties thereto (other than the
Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit Party and the Texas Credit Party); 
 (4) each of the Loan Documents constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto (other than the Credit Parties), enforceable against such parties (other than the Credit Parties) in accordance with its terms;

 (5) the execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of any of its obligations under the Loan
Documents to which it is a party does not and will not conflict with, contravene, violate or constitute a default under (A) any lease, indenture, instrument or other agreement to which such Credit Party or its property is subject (other than
the Organizational Documents or the Applicable Contracts as to which we express our opinion in paragraph 5 herein), (B) any rule, law or regulation to which such Credit Party is subject (other than the Applicable Laws as to which we express our
opinion in paragraph 6 herein), or (C) any judicial or administrative order or decree of any Governmental Authority (other than as to which we express our opinion in paragraph 7 herein); and 
 (6) no authorization, consent or other approval of, notice to or filing with any court, governmental authority or regulatory
body (other than the Governmental Approvals as to which we express our opinion in paragraph 7 herein) is required to authorize or is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of any Loan Document to which
it is a party or the transactions contemplated thereby. 








 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent 
 November 10, 2008 
 Page 5 
  

 We understand that you are separately receiving an opinion, subject to certain assumptions
and limitations, with respect to certain of the foregoing from special local counsel to the Credit Parties. 
 III.
QUALIFICATIONS 
 A. We express no opinion as to the effect on the opinions herein stated of (i) the compliance or
non-compliance of any party (other than the Credit Parties) to the Loan Documents with any federal, state, or other laws or regulations applicable to them or (ii) the legal or regulatory status or the nature of the business of such other
parties (other than the Credit Parties). 
 B. We express no opinion as to the applicability or effect of Sections
§§364, 547, 548 or 552 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law on the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated thereby. 
 C. We express no opinion as to the enforceability of the provisions of the Loan Documents providing for indemnity by the parties thereto
against any loss in obtaining the currency due to such party under such document from a court judgment in another currency. We note that courts in the United States generally award judgments only in United States dollars. We call your attention to
the fact that a judgment of a court in New York that is entered in a currency other than United States dollars is to be converted into United States dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of entry of such judgment. 
 D. We express no opinion as to the perfection (except as expressly set forth herein) or priority of any security interest of the Agent.

 E. In the case of investment property: 
 (1) to the extent the security interest of the Agent in any certificated securities is perfected by possession, we express no opinion as to the perfection of such security interest in any securities the
continuous possession of which is not maintained by the Agent in the State of Illinois or New York, and, in addition, we call to your attention that the perfection (and the effect of perfection and non-perfection) of the security interest of the
Agent in such certificated securities may be governed by laws other than those of the Illinois or New York UCC to the extent such securities become located in a jurisdiction other than the State of Illinois or New York; and 
 (2) you should be aware that in the case of Collateral consisting of securities, the Agent or the Lenders may not be entitled to vote such
securities or to receive dividends or other distributions directly from the issuer thereof prior to becoming record holder of such securities, nor may such securities be sold or further transferred by the Agent or the Lenders without registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, except pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in such act, and qualification or exemption under any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws. 
 IV. OPINIONS 
 Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, limitations, qualifications, exceptions and other limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 
 1. Each of the Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit Party and the Texas Credit Party is validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization. 








 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent 
 November 10, 2008 
 Page 6 
  

 2. Each of the Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit
Party and the Texas Credit Party has the corporate or limited liability company power to execute, deliver and perform all of its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party. The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the
consummation by each of the Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit Party and the Texas Credit Party of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by requisite corporate or limited liability
company action on the part of each of the Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit Party and the Texas Credit Party. 
 3. Each of the Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties, the Illinois Credit Party and the Texas Credit Party has executed and delivered each of the Loan Documents to which it is party.

 4. Each of the Loan Documents constitutes the valid and binding obligation of each Credit Party which is a party thereto,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the following qualifications: 
 (i) enforcement may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in
equity or at law), including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, unconscionability, good faith and fair dealing; 
 (ii) we express no opinion as to: the enforceability of any rights to contribution or indemnification provided for in the Loan Documents which are violative of the public policy underlying any law, rule
or regulation (including any federal or state securities law, rule or regulation) or which are determined by a court or other tribunal to be in an unreasonable amount or to constitute a penalty; 
 (iii) we express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of (a) the provisions of the Loan Documents to the extent
that they provide that provisions of the Loan Documents may only be waived in writing, (b) the provisions of the Loan Documents to the extent that any recovery of attorneys’ fees is limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, (c) the
provisions of the Loan Documents to the extent they state that the provisions of the Loan Documents are severable, (d) the agreements of the Credit Parties in the Loan Documents purporting to permit advances of funds for the payment of interest
without the consent of the Credit Parties or to pay compound interest or interest on overdue interest, (e) the agreements of the Credit Parties in the Loan Documents to indemnify you against costs or expenses or liability notwithstanding your
acts of gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (f) the provisions of the Loan Documents regarding submission to the jurisdiction or venue of a particular court, the waiver of the right to jury trial, or service of process, and/or choice of
law; 
 (iv) we express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of (a) the ordinances and statutes,
the administrative decisions and orders and the rules and regulations of any municipality, county or other political subdivision of the State of Illinois and (b) any of the waivers or remedies contained in the Loan Documents, whether









 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent 
 November 10, 2008 
 Page 7 
  

 
or not any Loan Document deems any such waiver or remedy commercially reasonable, if such waivers or remedies are determined not to be commercially reasonable within the meaning of the Uniform
Commercial Code; and 
 (v) certain of the provisions contained in the Loan Documents may be limited or rendered
unenforceable by applicable laws or judicial decisions governing such provisions or holding their enforcement to be unreasonable under the then-existing circumstances, but such laws and judicial decisions do not, in our opinion, render the Loan
Documents invalid as a whole or leave you without remedies. 
 5. The execution and delivery by each Credit Party of the Loan
Documents to which it is a party and performance by each of the Credit Parties of their obligations under such Loan Documents, each in accordance with its terms, do not (i) in the case of Delaware Credit Parties, the New York Credit Parties,
the Illinois Credit Party and the Texas Credit Party, conflict with the Organizational Documents of such Credit Party, (ii) constitute a violation of or a default under any Applicable Contracts (except that we express no opinion with respect to
compliance with financial covenants or tests), or (iii) cause the creation of any Lien upon any of the property of any Credit Party (except for Liens permitted by the Credit Agreement) pursuant to any Applicable Contract. 
 6. The execution and delivery by each Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and performance by each of the Credit
Parties of their obligations under such Loan Documents, each in accordance with its terms, do not violate any provision of any Applicable Law. 
 7. No Governmental Approval, which has not been obtained or taken and is not in full force and effect, is required to authorize or is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of
any of the Loan Documents by the Credit Parties except as may be required to be made or obtained by you as a result of your involvement in the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. 
 8. The Obligations constitute senior indebtedness which is entitled to the benefits of the subordination provisions of all Subordinated
Indebtedness outstanding and in effect on the date hereof. 
 9. As to each Pledgor, the U.S. Pledge Agreement creates, in favor
of the Agent, a valid security interest in the “Pledged Collateral” (as defined in the U.S. Pledge Agreement). The UCC Financing Statement of each Pledgor has been filed in the Filing Office listed opposite the name of such Pledgor in
Schedule II or, in the case of the UCC Financing Statement of GB Tools, is in proper form for filing in Filing Office opposite the name of GB Tools in Schedule II. Upon the filing of the UCC Financings Statement of GB Tools in the applicable Filing
Office, the security interests in the Pledged Collateral granted by each Pledgor to the Agent pursuant to the U.S. Pledge Agreement will be perfected to the extent that such security interests may be perfected under the applicable Designated UCC by
the filing a financing statement in the Filing Office listed opposite the name of such Pledgor in Schedule II. 
 10. The
Company is not an “investment company” registered or required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or, to our knowledge, controlled by such a company. 








 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent 
 November 10, 2008 
 Page 8 
  

 11. To our knowledge, no Credit Party is subject to any orders or decrees of Governmental
Authorities which will be contravened by the execution, delivery and performance by such Credit Party of its obligations under the Loan Documents. 
 12. The making of the Loans and the application of the proceeds thereof as provided in the Credit Agreement do not violate Regulations T, X or U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

 This opinion is limited to the matters expressly set forth herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly
so stated. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and we do not undertake any liability or responsibility to inform you of any change in circumstances occurring, or additional information becoming available to us, after the date hereof which
might alter the opinions contained herein. As used herein, the qualification “to our knowledge” is limited to the actual knowledge of the following McDermott Will & Emery LLP attorneys who worked directly on the transactions
contemplated hereby: Michael L. Boykins, John P. Hammond and Emily Garrison. 
 This opinion is furnished to you solely for your benefit and
your successors and permitted assigns under the Credit Agreement in connection with the transactions described above and is not to be used, circulated, quoted, relied upon or otherwise referred to for any other purpose without our prior written
consent, and this opinion may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose or by any other person in any manner or for any purpose. 
 Very
truly yours, 







 SCHEDULE I 
 Officer’s Certificate

Party to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents and the breach of which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Credit Parties. 
 7. The Company is not an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940 in that it is not: 
 a. in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities nor does it hold itself out as being engaged

 b. engaged nor proposes to engage in the business of issuing face-amount

	A.	LEVERAGE RATIO (Section 6.19.1) 

 Calculate the Leverage Ratio for the four-fiscal quarter period ended on the last day of the Fiscal Quarter, by dividing Consolidated Indebtedness by Consolidated EBITDA. If a Permitted Acquisition or Asset Sale has occurred during the

during such four-quarter period). 
 Net Consolidated Indebtedness may be used instead of Consolidated Indebtedness to calculate
the Leverage Ratio if each of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) the Company did not use Net Consolidated Indebtedness instead of Consolidated Indebtedness to calculate the Leverage Ratio at the end of the immediately preceding Fiscal
Quarter, and (2) there were no Loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement as of the calculation date of this Compliance Certificate.

 SCHEDULE 1.5 
 TO 
 CREDIT AGREEMENT 
 Mandatory Cost 
  

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

  

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

  

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

  

	4.	The Associated Costs Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Agent as follows: 

  

	(a)	in relation to a Loan in Pounds Sterling: 

  

			
	AB + C(B – D) + E × 0.01	 	per cent. per annum
	100 – (A + C)	 

  

	(b)	in relation to a Loan in any currency other than Pounds Sterling: 

  

			
	E × 0.01	 	per cent. per annum
	300	 

 Where: 
  

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









	 	B	is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified
in Section 2.13(c) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan. 

  

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

  

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

  

	 	E	is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge
supplied by the Reference Banks to the Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000. 

  

	5.	For the purposes of this Schedule: 

  

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

  

	(b)	“Facility Office” means the office or offices notified by a Lender to the Agent in writing on or before the date it becomes a Lender (or, following
that date, by not less than five Business Days’ written notice) as the office or offices through which it will perform its obligations under this Agreement. 

  

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

  

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

  

	(e)	“Participating Member State” means any member state of the European Union that adopts or has adopted the euro as its lawful currency in accordance with
legislation of the European Union relating to economic and monetary union. 

  

	(f)	“Reference Banks” means, in relation to Mandatory Cost, (i) the principal London offices of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and (ii) the principal
London offices of Bank of America, N.A. 

  

 - 2 - 









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

  

	(h)	“Unpaid Sum” means any sum due and payable but unpaid by the relevant Borrower under the Loan Documents. 

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

	(i)	the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and 

  

	(j)	any other information that the Agent may reasonably require for such purpose. 

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

	9.	The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the
Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special
Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office. 

  

	10.	The Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Associated Costs Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be
entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects. 

  


 - 3 - 









	11.	The Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Associated Costs Rate for each Lender
based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above. 

  

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

 The Agent may from time to time, after
consultation with the relevant Borrower and the relevant Lenders, determine and notify to all parties hereto any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from
time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest
error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

 Contingent Obligations 
 In connection with the Company’s
Spin-off of its electronics business (“APW”) in fiscal 2000, the Company remained contingently liable for certain lease obligations of APW. If APW were unable to fulfill its obligations under the leases, the Company could be liable for
such leases. The discounted present value of future minimum lease payments for such leases totals, assuming no offset for sub-leasing, approximately $5.2 million at August 31, 2008. The future undiscounted minimum lease payments for these
leases are as follows: $0.4 million in the balance of calendar 2008; $1.1 million in calendar 2009; $1.1 million in calendar 2010; $1.2 million in calendar 2011; $1.2 million in calendar 2012 and $3.7 million thereafter.
