 For purposes of the

have established a rating in Category 5; (b) if the ratings established or deemed to have been established by Moody’s and S&P for the Index Debt shall fall within different categories, then the Applicable Rate shall be based on the

announced by the applicable rating agency; and (d) so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company may replace either Moody’s or S&P (but not both) with Fitch; provided that, in the event of any such
replacement, clause (b) above shall cease to apply and, in lieu of such clause (b), if the ratings established or deemed to have been established by either Moody’s or S&P (whichever remains as a rating agency for purposes

by reference to the category one level above the category corresponding to the lower rating. Each change in the Applicable Rate shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately
preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch (whichever are applicable) shall change, or if any such applicable rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt
obligations, the Borrowers and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment,
the Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

 27 








 
will promptly advise each Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Company. Each Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Company by means of an immediately
available credit to the general deposit account of the Company with such Swingline Lender or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.07(e), by remittance to the

Swingline Lender may, by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion (in such case,
ratably from the Swingline Lenders) of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give
notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided
above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lenders ratably (50% to each Swingline Lender), such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and
agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or
reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and
the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lenders ratably (50% to each Swingline Lender) the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company of any participation in any Swingline Loan
acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by either Swingline Lender from the Company (or other
party on behalf of the Company) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by such Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the
Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a
Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Company of any default in the payment thereof. 
 SECTION 2.06.
Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Revolving Loan denominated in Dollars (other than any Negotiated Rate Loan) to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by
2:00 p.m., New York City time (or time of such other city designated 
  

 28 








 
by the Administrative Agent), to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be
made as provided in Section 2.05. Each Lender shall make each Loan (other than any Negotiated Rate Loan) denominated in an Alternative Currency to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available
funds by 1:00 p.m., London time (or time of such other city designated by J.P. Morgan Europe Limited), to the account of J.P. Morgan Europe Limited most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent or
J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, will make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting, before 2:00 p.m. Local Time, the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower maintained with
(i) the Administrative Agent in New York City, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, and (ii) J.P. Morgan Europe Limited in London (or such other city as J.P. Morgan Europe Limited may designate in respect of the applicable
currency), in the case of Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency, in each case designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or Competitive Bid Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the
reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.07(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, to the applicable Issuing Bank. Each Lender making a Negotiated Rate Loan shall make
such Loan on the date, at the time and to the account of the applicable Borrower separately agreed between such Lender and such Borrower. 

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited) shall have
received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing (other than any Negotiated Rate Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, such
Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and
may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan
Europe Limited, as applicable, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, at (i) in the case of such Lender,
the greater of (A)(1) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars) or (2) the rate reasonably determined by J.P. Morgan Europe Limited to be the cost to it of funding such amount (in the case of Loans
denominated in any other Currency) and (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of such
Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate applicable to the Loan in respect of which such payment is owed or (B) the Administrative Agent’s or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited’s cost of funds, as applicable. If such Lender pays
such amount to the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

 SECTION 2.07. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, each Issuing Bank agrees to issue Letters of Credit upon the request of either Borrower, which request shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the
Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by either Borrower to, or entered into by
either Borrower with, any Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed
$200,000,000, (ii) the Total Credit Exposure shall not exceed the total Revolving Commitments, (iii) each Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and (iv) the portion of LC

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date
one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

 (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount
thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each 

 

 30 








 
Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of the aggregate
amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such
Lender’s Applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement
payment required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and
shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such
payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 
 (e) Reimbursement. If an
Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying in the currency in which such LC Disbursement is denominated to the Administrative Agent an amount
equal to such LC Disbursement not later than (i) if the applicable Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, then 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such Business
Day or (ii) otherwise, 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than $500,000, the Borrower may, subject
to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the
Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of
the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent its Applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of the payment then due from the applicable Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply,
mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of
any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to
such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as
contemplated above) shall not constitute a Revolving Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 
  

 31 








 (f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligations to reimburse LC
Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and
irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or
invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the
terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a
right of setoff against, the applicable Borrower’s obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, or any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in
connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or
delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence
arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to
consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether
drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents
presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents
purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) or by electronic communication, if arrangements
for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank and the recipient, of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in
giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
  

 32 








 (h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless
the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the
date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of
this Section, then Section 2.14(e) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

(i) Replacement of Issuing Banks. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Company, the
Administrative Agent and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees
accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.13(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under
this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and
all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under
this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Company receives
notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant
to this paragraph, the Company shall deposit or cause to be deposited in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date
plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any
kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to a Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and
performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the
investment of such deposits, which 
  

 33 








 
investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if
any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements for which they have not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so
applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time. If the Borrowers provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default,
such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. 

SECTION 2.08. Incremental Revolving Commitments. (a) The Company may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time
to time, request that the total Revolving Commitments be increased; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of such increase shall not exceed $250,000,000, (ii) no Lender shall be required to provide any such incremental commitment
and (iii) the conditions precedent to each borrowing set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at the time of any such request. Such notice shall set forth the amount of the requested increase in the Revolving Commitments (which shall be in
minimum increments of $10,000,000) and the date on which such increase is requested to become effective (which shall be not less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice and which, in any event, must be on or prior
to the Maturity Date). The Company may arrange for one or more banks or other entities (any such bank or other entity being called an “Augmenting Lender”), which may include any Lender, to extend Revolving Commitments or increase
their existing Revolving Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to the requested increase; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall become a Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each
Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). The Company and each Augmenting Lender shall execute all such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence its Revolving Commitment
and/or its status as a Lender hereunder. Any increase in the Revolving Commitments may be made in an amount which is less than the increase requested by the Company if the Company is unable to arrange for, or chooses not to arrange for, Augmenting
Lenders. 
 (b) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all actions as may be
reasonably necessary to ensure that, after giving effect to any increase in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section, the outstanding Revolving Loans (if any) are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their new Revolving
Commitments. This may be accomplished at the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent (i) by requiring the outstanding Loans to be prepaid with the proceeds of new Loans, (ii) by causing Lenders that are not Augmenting Lenders to
assign, at the Company’s expense, portions of their outstanding Loans to Augmenting Lenders or (iii) by any combination of the foregoing. Any prepayment or assignment described in this paragraph (b) shall be subject to
Section 2.17, but otherwise without premium or penalty. 
  

 34 








 SECTION 2.09. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall
be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to
convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section, provided that the Currency of a Revolving Borrowing may not
be changed in connection with any continuation or conversion of the Interest Period therefor. Alternative Currency Revolving Borrowings may only be Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowings and may not be converted to ABR Revolving Borrowings. The
applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans
comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Competitive Borrowings, Swingline Borrowings or Negotiated Rate Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued. 

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an
Alternative Currency Borrowing, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited) of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting
from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of
an Alternative Currency Borrowing, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited) of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower. 

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

 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected
with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each
resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request,
which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing (in the case of
Loans denominated in Dollars only) or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a
Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 

 

 35 








 If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest
Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d)
Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting
Borrowing. 
 (e) If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency
Revolving Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be continued as a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing with
an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, at the request of the
Required Lenders, so notifies the applicable Borrower, then so long as an Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing (except as provided in clause
(iii) below), (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency
Revolving Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Committed Currency shall be continued as a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 

SECTION 2.10. Termination and Reduction of Revolving Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments
shall terminate on the Maturity Date. 
 (b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving
Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the
Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.12, the Total Credit Exposure would exceed the total Revolving Commitments. 

(c) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments under
paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the
Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided  

 

 36 








 
that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such
notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction
of the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments, except as provided in Section 2.24(f) with respect to the Revolving Commitments of Defaulting Lenders. 

SECTION 2.11. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) on
the Maturity Date to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan denominated in Dollars owed by such Borrower, (ii) on the Maturity Date to J.P. Morgan Europe Limited for the
account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency owed by such Borrower, (iii) to the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing, J.P. Morgan
Europe Limited) for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Loan owed by such Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, (iv) in the case of the Company, to each Swingline
Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such
Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Company shall repay all Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was requested, and (v) to the applicable Lender the then
unpaid principal amount of each Negotiated Rate Loan owed by such Borrower on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan. 

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

(c) The Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited) shall maintain accounts
in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Borrower thereof, the Class, Type and Currency thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited) hereunder for the account
of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to
paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender, the Administrative

  

 37 








 
Agent (or, in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited) to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of either
Borrower to repay its Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it
be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered
assigns) and (i) with respect to any Revolving Loan, substantially in the form of Exhibit D, and (ii) with respect to any Loan that is not a Revolving Loan, in a form approved by such Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in each case
appropriately completed in conformity with this Agreement. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more
promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 

(f) Each Lender that makes any Negotiated Rate Loan shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an Alternative Currency
Borrowing, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited) of each such Loan and of each payment of principal in respect thereof. 
 SECTION 2.12.
Prepayment of Loans. (a) Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section;
provided that the Borrowers shall not have the right to prepay any Competitive Loan or Negotiated Rate Loan without the prior consent of the Lender thereof. 

(b) If, on any Revaluation Date, the Total Credit Exposure exceeds 105% of the total Revolving Commitments, then the Company shall, not
later than the third Business Day after the Company receives notice thereof from the Administrative Agent, prepay, or cause either or both Borrowers to prepay, without penalty or premium (subject to Section 2.17), one or more Borrowings in an
aggregate amount sufficient to reduce the Total Credit Exposure to an amount not exceeding the total Revolving Commitments; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to prepay any Competitive Loans or Negotiated Rate Loans pursuant to
this paragraph. 
 (c) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan,
the Swingline Lenders) by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing denominated in Dollars, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business
Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a
Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent and J.P. Morgan 

 

 38 








 
Europe Limited by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of any prepayment hereunder of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing denominated in any Alternative Currency, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York
City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that a notice of
prepayment of the Loans may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities as contemplated by Section 2.10(c), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative
Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, shall
advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Currency and Type as provided in Section
2.02, except as provided in Section 2.24(f) in connection with the prepayment of the Loans of any Defaulting Lender. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing, except as
provided in Section 2.24(f) in connection with the prepayment of the Loans of any Defaulting Lender. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.14. 

SECTION 2.13. Fees. (a) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee,
which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender (whether used or unused) during the period from and including the date of this Agreement to but excluding the date on which such Revolving
Commitment terminates; provided that, if such Lender continues to have any Revolving Credit Exposure after its Revolving Commitment terminates, then such facility fee shall continue to accrue on the daily amount of such Lender’s
Revolving Credit Exposure from and including the date on which its Revolving Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Revolving Credit Exposure. The Administrative Agent will give the Company three
Business Days’ notice of the amount of the facility fee payable on each payment date. Accrued facility fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving
Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any facility fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All facility fees in
respect of Revolving Commitments shall be payable in Dollars and shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

(b) The Company agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its
participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion
thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the

  

 39 








 
date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate agreed upon between such Issuing Bank and the Company
per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective
Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day
following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on
which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be payable
in Dollars and shall computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

(c) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in Dollars in the amounts and at the times
separately agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the
dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to any Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of facility fees and participation fees, to the applicable Lenders. Fees paid shall not
be refundable under any circumstances. 
 SECTION 2.14. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing
(including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (b) The Loans
comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate, or (ii) in the case of a
Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowing, at the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus (or minus, as applicable) the Margin applicable to such Loan; provided that in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan
denominated in British Pounds Sterling and if the Borrower of such Loan is Fortune Brands UK, such amount shall be increased by the MLA Cost. 

(c) Each Fixed Rate Loan shall bear interest at the Fixed Rate applicable to such Loan. 

 

 40 








 (d) Each Negotiated Rate Loan shall bear interest at the rate agreed by the applicable
Borrower and the applicable Lender. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee
or other amount payable by either Borrower hereunder (other than with respect to any Negotiated Rate Loan) is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as
before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case
of any other amount, 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Negotiated Rate Loan shall not be paid when due, whether at
stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall, without limiting any rights of any Lender under this Agreement, bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at such rate per annum as shall be mutually agreed upon
between the applicable Borrower and the applicable Lender or, in the absence of such agreement, at the rate determined pursuant to the preceding sentence. 

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

(g) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days (subject to any agreement to the contrary, in the case of
Negotiated Rate Loans), except that interest on Borrowings denominated in British Pounds Sterling and interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the
basis of a year of 365 days (or, except in the case of Borrowings denominated in British Pounds Sterling, 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the
last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

SECTION 2.15. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing
denominated in any Currency: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent (in the case of any Revolving Borrowing denominated in Dollars) or
J.P. Morgan Europe Limited (in the case of any Revolving Borrowing denominated in any Alternative Currency) determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not

  

 41 








 
exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for the Currency in which such Eurocurrency Borrowing is or is to be denominated (the “Applicable
Currency”) for such Interest Period; or 
 (b) the Administrative Agent (and J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, in the case of
any Revolving Borrowing denominated in any Alternative Currency) is advised by the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Eurocurrency Competitive Loan, the Lender that is required to make such Loan) that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as
applicable, for such Interest Period for the Applicable Currency will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable
thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to,
or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing denominated in the Applicable Currency as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto
(A) if such Borrowing is denominated in Dollars, as an ABR Borrowing, or (B) if such Borrowing is denominated in an Alternative Committed Currency, as a Borrowing bearing interest at such rate as the Lenders participating in such Borrowing
and the applicable Borrower may agree adequately reflects the costs to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans plus the Applicable Rate (or, in the absence of such agreement, shall be repaid as of the last day of the current Interest
Period applicable thereto), (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing denominated in the Applicable Currency, such Revolving Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing denominated in Dollars (or such Borrowing
shall not be made if the applicable Borrower revokes (and in such circumstances, such Borrowing Request may be revoked notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement) such Borrowing Request by telephonic notice, confirmed promptly in writing,
not later than one Business Day prior to the proposed date of such Borrowing) and (iii) any request by a Borrower for a Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowing denominated in the Applicable Currency shall be ineffective; provided that if the
circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all the Lenders, then requests by a Borrower for Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowings denominated in the Applicable Currency may be made to Lenders that are not affected thereby. 

SECTION 2.16. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall: 

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

(ii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or
Eurocurrency Loans or Fixed Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
  

 42 








 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining
any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any
sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Company will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) If any Lender
or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing
Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender
or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or
Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank,
or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) If the cost to any Lender
or Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any Loan to, or issuing or participating in any Letter of Credit issued for the account of Fortune Brands UK is increased (or the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Lender (or its applicable
lending office) is reduced) by an amount deemed in good faith by such Lender or Issuing Bank to be material, by reason of the fact that Fortune Brands UK is incorporated in, or conducts business in, a jurisdiction outside the United States, Fortune
Brands UK will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank for such increased cost or reduction suffered. 

(d) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or
its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company or the applicable
Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. In requesting any compensation pursuant to this Section, each Lender or Issuing Bank will
use good faith efforts to treat the Borrowers in substantially the same manner as such Lender or Issuing Bank treats other similarly situated borrowers under similar circumstances. 

 

 43 








 (e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that, in the case of a Change in Law, the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender or
Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the
270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 (f) Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section, a Lender shall not be entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section in respect of any Competitive Loan (i) in the case of paragraph (a) or (b), if the Change in Law that would
otherwise entitle it to such compensation shall have been publicly announced prior to submission of the Competitive Bid pursuant to which such Loan was made or (ii) in the case of paragraph (c), in respect of any costs referred to
therein. 
 SECTION 2.17. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any
Eurocurrency Loan, Fixed Rate Loan, or, unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Borrower and the applicable Lender with respect to a Negotiated Rate Loan, a Negotiated Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable
thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving
Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.12(c) and is revoked in accordance therewith), (d) the failure to borrow any Competitive Loan after accepting
the Competitive Bid to make such Loan or (e) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan, Fixed Rate Loan or, unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Borrower and the applicable Lender with respect to a Negotiated Rate Loan, Negotiated Rate Loan
other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.20, then, in any such event, the Company or the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss,
cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender may include an amount reasonably determined by such Lender to be incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of
funds, but excluding loss of anticipated profits. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. The Company or the applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

SECTION 2.18. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of either Borrower hereunder shall be made
free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if either Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments,

  

 44 








 
then (i) 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) the
Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay
the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b) In addition, the
Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) The
relevant Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the relevant Lender or the relevant Issuing Bank, as the case may be, within 10 days after written demand therefor is made (which demand shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for
the determination that the Borrower is liable), for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of
any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to either Borrower by a Lender
or Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by either Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such
Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which either Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to such Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without
withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Foreign Lender has received written notice from such Borrower advising it of the availability of such exemption or reduction and supplying all applicable documentation. 

(f) If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any
Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by either Borrower or with respect to which either 
  

 45 








 
Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay over such refund to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by
such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank and without interest (other than any interest
paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus
any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank is required to repay such
refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems
confidential) to either Borrower or any other Person. 
 SECTION 2.19. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of
Set-offs. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder other than any payments with respect to Negotiated Rate Loans (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts
payable under Section 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, or 2.21, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, Local Time on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the
discretion of the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments to be made to the Administrative
Agent shall be made to it at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders as expressly provided herein; all such payments to be made to J.P. Morgan Europe
Limited shall be made to it at its offices at 9 Thomas More Street, London, United Kingdom; and payments pursuant to Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.21, and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent or J.P.
Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the
Borrowers on account of principal, interest and fees relating to Negotiated Rate Loans shall be made to the Lender with respect thereto on such terms, at such address and at such time as shall be mutually agreed upon between the applicable Borrower
and the applicable Lender in Dollars or the Alternative Currency agreed on the date due. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in
the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder of principal or interest in respect of any Loan (or of any amounts payable under Section 2.17 or, at the
request of the applicable Lender, Section 2.16, 2.18 or 2.21 in respect of any Loan) shall be made in the currency in which such Loan is denominated; all payments hereunder in respect of the reimbursement of any LC Disbursement or of interest
thereon shall be made in the currency in which such LC Disbursement is denominated; all other payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars, 

 

 46 








 
except as otherwise expressly provided. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required
if the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement
system used by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, to make such payment. Any amount payable by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, to one or more Lenders in the national currency
of a member state of the European Union that has adopted the Euro as its lawful currency shall be paid in Euro. 
 (b) If at any
time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder (other than with respect to
Negotiated Rate Loans), such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder (other than with respect to Negotiated Rate Loans), ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts
of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder (other than with respect to Negotiated Rate Loans), ratably among the parties entitled thereto in
accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 
 (c) If any Lender shall,
by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving
payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such
greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be
shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the
provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by either Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or
sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to either Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each
Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
  

 47 








 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, shall have
received notice from the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will
not make such payment, the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the
Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the
Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but
excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, at (i) the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as
applicable, in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (in the case of an amount denominated in Dollars) and (ii) the rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable,
to be the cost to it of funding such amount (in the case of an amount denominated in any other currency). 
 (e) If any Lender
shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(b) or paragraph (d) of this Section, then the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, may, in its discretion
(notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such
Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 SECTION 2.20. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of
Lenders. (a) If any Lender or Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.16 or 2.21, or if either Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority for the
account of any Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.18, then such Lender or Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.16, 2.18
or 2.21, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender or such Issuing Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or such Issuing Bank. The Company hereby agrees
to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or Issuing Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.16 or 2.21, or if either Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any 
  

 48 








 
Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.18, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Issuing Bank defaults in its obligations to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, then
the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender (or Issuing Bank, as applicable) and the Administrative Agent, either (i) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, terminate the Revolving Commitment
of such Lender and prepay all outstanding Loans (other than Competitive Loans and Negotiated Rate Loans) of such Lender or (ii) require such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (other than any outstanding Competitive Loans and Negotiated Rate Loans held by it and other than, in the case of any
Issuing Bank, its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the then outstanding Letters of Credit that have been issued by it) to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender or
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, if a Lender or Issuing Bank accepts such assignment); provided that (A) in the case of an assignment to a Person not then a Lender or Issuing Bank, the Company shall have received the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, and (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal
to the outstanding principal of its Loans (other than Competitive Loans and Negotiated Rate Loans) and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from
the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower or Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts). The applicable Borrower shall not be entitled to terminate a Lender’s Revolving
Commitment and prepay its Loans as provided in clause (i) above, and a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation as provided in clause (ii) above, if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by
such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to effect such termination and prepayment or to require such assignment and delegation, as the case may be, cease to apply. 

SECTION 2.21. Additional Reserve Costs. (a) If and so long as any Lender is required to make special deposits with the Bank
of England, or to maintain reserve asset ratios or to pay fees (other than deposits or reserves reflected in the determination of the Adjusted LIBO Rate), in each case in respect of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans in any Alternative Currency,
such Lender may require the relevant Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Loans, additional interest on such Loans at a rate per annum equal to the MLA Cost calculated in accordance with the formula and in
the manner set forth in Exhibit C. 
 (b) If and so long as any Lender is required to comply with reserve assets, liquidity,
cash margin or other requirements of any monetary or other authority (other than any such requirements reflected in the determination of the Adjusted LIBO Rate) (including any such requirement imposed by the European Central Bank or the European
System of Central Banks, but excluding requirements reflected in the Statutory Reserves or the MLA Cost) in respect of any of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans in any Alternative Currency, such Lender may require the relevant Borrower to pay,

  

 49 








 
contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans subject to such requirements, additional interest on such Loans at a rate per annum specified by
such Lender to be the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements in relation to such Loan. 
 (c) Any additional
interest owed pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be determined by the relevant Lender, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and notified to the relevant Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent and, if applicable, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited) at least five Business Days before each date on which interest is payable for the relevant Loan, and such additional interest so notified to the relevant Borrower by such Lender
shall be payable to the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, for the account of such Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Loan. 

SECTION 2.22. Redenomination of Certain Designated Foreign Currencies. (a) Each obligation of any party to this Agreement to
make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption (in accordance with
the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London Interbank
Market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided
that if any Borrowing in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end of the then current Interest Period. 

(b) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent (in
consultation with the Company) may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro. 

SECTION 2.23. Assigned Dollar Value. (a) With respect to each Alternative Currency Borrowing, Alternative Currency Letter of
Credit or Alternative Currency LC Disbursement, its “Assigned Dollar Value” shall mean the following: 

(i) in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing, the Dollar amount specified in the Borrowing Request therefor (or
(A) in the case of a Competitive Borrowing, the Dollar amount thereof accepted pursuant to Section 2.04 or (B) in the case of a Negotiated Rate Borrowing, (x) denominated in Dollars, the Dollar amount of such Borrowing and
(y) denominated in any Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent thereof as determined by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, based upon the applicable Spot Exchange Rate at or about the date of such
Borrowing, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) unless and until adjusted pursuant to the following clause (ii); 
  

 50 








 (ii) as of each Revaluation Date with respect to such Alternative Currency
Borrowing, the “Assigned Dollar Value” of such Borrowing shall be adjusted to be the Dollar Equivalent thereof (as determined by the Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, based upon the applicable Spot Exchange
Rate as of the date that is three Business Days before such Revaluation Date (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error))(subject to further adjustment in accordance with this clause (ii) thereafter); 

(iii) in the case of an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the Dollar Equivalent thereof as determined by the
Administrative Agent based upon the applicable Spot Exchange Rate at or about the date of issuance of such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) unless and until adjusted pursuant to
the following clause (iv); 
 (iv) as of each Revaluation Date with respect to an outstanding Alternative
Currency Letter of Credit, the “Assigned Dollar Value” of such Letter of Credit shall be adjusted to be the Dollar Equivalent thereof as determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the applicable Spot Exchange Rate as of the date
that is three Business Days before such Revaluation Date (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) subject to further adjustment in accordance with this clause (iv) thereafter; 

(v) in the case of an Alternative Currency LC Disbursement, the Dollar Equivalent thereof as determined by the
Administrative Agent based upon the applicable Spot Exchange Rate most recently used to determine the “Assigned Dollar Value” of the Letter of Credit under which such LC Disbursement was made (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) unless and until adjusted pursuant to the following clause (vi); and 
 (vi) as of each
Revaluation Date with respect to an outstanding Alternative Currency LC Disbursement, the “Assigned Dollar Value” of such LC Disbursement shall be adjusted to be the Dollar Equivalent thereof as determined by the Administrative Agent based
upon the applicable Spot Exchange Rate as of the date that is three Business Days before such Revaluation Date (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) subject to further adjustment in accordance with this clause
(vi) thereafter. 
  

 51 








 (b) The Assigned Dollar Value of an Alternative Currency Loan shall equal the Assigned
Dollar Value of the Alternative Currency Borrowing of which such Loan is a part multiplied by the percentage of such Borrowing represented by such Loan. 

The Administrative Agent or J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, as applicable, shall notify the Company of any change in the Assigned Dollar
Value of any Alternative Currency Borrowing, Alternative Currency Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency LC Disbursement promptly following determination of such change. 

SECTION 2.24. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply except as provided in Section 2.24(e) if such Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender: 

(a) facility fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section
2.13(a), and participation fees shall cease to accrue on the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender to the extent it is cash collateralized pursuant to Section 2.24 (c); 

(b) the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the
Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder; 
 (c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time
a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then: 
 (i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure
shall be reallocated among the Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Applicable Revolving Commitment Percentages, but only to the extent (A) the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving
Credit Exposure plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments, (B) the sum of any Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit
Exposures plus such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure and Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure does not exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving
Commitment and (C) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time; and 
 (ii) if the
reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Borrowers
against such Defaulting Lender, (A) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (B) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause
(i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.07(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; 
  

 52 








 (iii) if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.13(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s cash collateralized LC
Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if the LC
Exposure of the Non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to this paragraph (c), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Revolving
Commitment Percentages; or 
 (v) if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor
reallocated pursuant to this paragraph (c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.13(b) with respect to such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank to be held as cash collateral for the Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (it being agreed that any such amount not applied to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender
in respect of such LC Exposure will, when such LC Exposure ceases to exist, be returned (A) to such Defaulting Lender if it has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender as provided in paragraph (e) below and (B) otherwise to the Company);

 (d) a Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and an Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue,
amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with
paragraph (c) of this Section, and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with paragraph
(c)(i) of this Section (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and 
 (e) in the event and on the date that
each of the Administrative Agent, the Company, each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender shall agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC
Exposure of the other Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans (other than Swingline Loans) and unreimbursed LC Disbursements
of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage; provided that no adjustments will be made
retroactively with respect to facility fees and participation fees accrued or 
  

 53 








 
payments made by or on behalf of any Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the Borrowers
and any other affected parties, no termination of a Lender’s status as a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any Borrower or other affected party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a
Defaulting Lender. 
 (f) as long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may
(i) prepay, without penalty or premium, the Loans made by a Defaulting Lender and/or (ii) terminate the unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender, in each case, (x) without pro rata prepayment of Loans of other
Lenders or pro rata termination of Revolving Commitments of other Lenders and (y) upon not less than two Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), it being understood that
such prepayment and/or termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim any of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent may have against such Defaulting Lender. 

(g) nothing in this Section shall affect any rights or remedies any Borrower may have against any Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE VIII 

The Administrative Agent 

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

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

 68 








 The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing
by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have
any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to either Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its
Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary
under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02)) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is
given to the Administrative Agent by the applicable Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in
connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or
conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or
elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed
or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative
Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel,
accountants or experts. 
 The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or
through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory
provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit
facility provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 
  

 69 








 Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in
this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a
successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after such retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative
Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from
its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the Administrative
Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Each Lender acknowledges that it
has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender
also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in
taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Persons named on the cover page of this Agreement as a Joint Lead Arranger
and Joint Bookrunner, as a Syndication Agent or as a Documentation Agent shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender or an Issuing Bank, but all such Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint
Bookrunners, Syndication Agents and Documentation Agents shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Persons shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender
as a result of this Agreement or the transactions provided for herein. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgements with respect to the relevant Persons in their respective capacities as Joint Lead Arranger and Joint Bookrunner or as
Syndication Agent or as Documentation Agent, as applicable, as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in the preceding paragraph.

 ARTICLE IX 

Guarantee 

In order to induce the Lenders to extend credit to Fortune Brands UK hereunder, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the Obligations of Fortune Brands UK. The Company further agrees that the due and punctual payment of the Obligations of Fortune Brands UK 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 Obligation. 

The Company waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to Fortune Brands UK 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 any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy
against Fortune Brands UK under the provisions of this Agreement 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 agreement; (d) the failure or delay of any Lender to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Obligations; (e) the failure of any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to
enforce any remedy under any other agreement or instrument; (f) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations; or (g) any other act, 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 the Company as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of the Company to subrogation, in each case, other than payment in
full of the Obligations after termination of the Revolving Commitments. 
 The Company further agrees that its guarantee
hereunder constitutes a promise 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 any Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Lender in favor of either Borrower or Subsidiary or any other Person. 

The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, and
shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of the Obligations or otherwise,
in each case, other than the defense of payment in full of the Obligations. 
 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 any Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of either
Borrower or otherwise. 
  

 71 








 In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Lender
may have at law or in equity against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of Fortune Brands UK 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 Administrative Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders in cash an amount equal the unpaid principal amount
of such Obligation. 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 New York and if, by reason of any legal prohibition, 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 any Lender, not consistent with the
protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of such Lender, the Company shall make payment of such Obligation in Dollars (based upon the applicable Spot Exchange Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, and
shall indemnify such Lender against any losses or expenses (including losses or expenses resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates) that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment. 

Upon payment in full by the Company of any Obligation of Fortune Brands UK, each Lender shall, in a reasonable manner, assign to the
Company the amount of such Obligation owed to such Lender and so paid, such assignment to be pro tanto to the extent to which the Obligation in question was discharged by the Company, or make such disposition thereof as the Company shall direct (all
without recourse to any Lender and without any representation or warranty by any Lender). Upon payment by the Company of any sums as provided above, all rights of the Company against Fortune Brands UK 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 of all the Obligations owed by Fortune Brands UK to the Lenders (it being understood that, after the discharge of
all the Obligations due and payable from Fortune Brands UK, such rights may be exercised by the Company notwithstanding that Fortune Brands UK may remain contingently liable for indemnity or other Obligations).

SECTION 10.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in
exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks 

 

 73 








 
and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure
by either Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Issuing Bank may
have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived,
amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no
such agreement shall (i) increase the Revolving Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees
payable hereunder, or change the Currency in which any of the foregoing is payable, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC
Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Revolving Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender
affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.19(b) or 2.19(c) or the last sentence of Section 2.10(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments or the pro rata reduction of Revolving Commitments, respectively, required
thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section, Section 2.24(b) or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of
Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender or (vi) release or limit the Company’s obligations under Article IX
without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the
Borrowers, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent (and, if their rights or obligations are affected thereby, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lenders) if (i) by the terms of such agreement the Revolving Commitment of each Lender
not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (ii) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of
and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement. Anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, the applicable Borrower and the applicable Lender
with respect to a Negotiated Rate Loan may, from time, to time, enter into amendments, supplements or modifications for the purpose of adding any provisions to such Negotiated Rate Loans or changing in any

  

 74 








 
manner the rights of such Lender and such Borrower thereunder and such Lender may waive any of the requirements of such Negotiated Rate Loan; provided that such Borrower and such Lender
shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any extensions of the maturity of such Negotiated Rate Loan or reduction of the principal amount thereof; provided further that such Borrower and such Lender shall not extend the
maturity of such Negotiated Rate Loan beyond the Maturity Date. 
 SECTION 10.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.
(a) The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including J.P. Morgan Europe Limited), including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the
Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facility provided for herein and the preparation and administration of this Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand
for payment thereunder, and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any
counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or
Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided that the Company shall have no
obligation to pay fees, charges or disbursements for more than (A) one firm of counsel acting for the Administrative Agent in each applicable jurisdiction and (B) one firm of counsel acting for the Lenders and Issuing Banks in each
applicable jurisdiction. 
 (b) The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender (other
than any Defaulting Lender), and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the
execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions
contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such
demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by either Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any Environmental
Liability related in any way to either Borrower or any Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether based on contract, tort

  

 75 








 
or any other theory, whether brought by any of the Borrowers, their affiliates, or any other person, or whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not,
as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or from the violation of this Agreement by such Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to pay fees, charges or disbursements for more than (A) one firm of counsel
acting for the Administrative Agent and all of its Related Parties in each applicable jurisdiction and (B) one firm of counsel acting for the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and all of their Related Parties in each applicable jurisdiction;
provided that an Indemnitee shall have the right to employ additional counsel (including local counsel), and the Company shall bear the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of such additional counsel, if (x) the employment of
counsel by such Indemnitee has been authorized in writing by the Company, (y) such Indemnitee has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of counsel to such Indemnitee) that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or
in addition to those available to any other Indemnitee or (z) such Indemnitee has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of counsel to such Indemnitee) that a conflict or potential conflict exists between such Indemnitee and any other
Indemnitee. 
 (c) To the extent that the Company fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders, as the case may be, such
Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability
or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or either Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes of this paragraph, a Lender’s “pro rata share” of
any amount shall be determined based on the percentage of the total Revolving Commitments represented by such Lender’s Revolving Commitment or, if the Revolving Commitments have terminated or expired, such percentage shall be determined based
upon the Total Credit Exposure. 
 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither of the Borrowers shall assert, and
each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this
Agreement, any promissory note issued pursuant to this Agreement, the Transactions, any Loan or any Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. 

SECTION 10.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any 
  

 76 








 
Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by either Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in
accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any
Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by
reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (i) in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment, each Issuing Bank and
Swingline Lender must give prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) and, except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, the Company and the Administrative Agent must give their prior written
consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that no consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a
Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitment, the amount of the Revolving Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of
the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, (iii) each partial
assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that this clause (iii) shall not apply to rights in respect of outstanding
Competitive Loans or Negotiated Rate Loans, (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 to the Administrative
Agent, and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and all applicable tax forms; and provided further that any consent of the Borrowers otherwise required
under this paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default under clause (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of
this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18,
2.21 and 10.03 solely in respect of any period ended on or before the date of such assignment). 
  

 77 








 
Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such
Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section. 
 (c)
The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register
shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks 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, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s
completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by
paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it
has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (e) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers,
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to
the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver
described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18 and
2.21 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. 
  

 78 








 (f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16,
2.18 or 2.21 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with a Borrower’s prior written consent. A
Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.18 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the
Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.18(f) as though it were a Lender. 
 (g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign
a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such
pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party
hereto. 
 (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may
grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (a “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Company, the option to provide to either Borrower all or any part of
any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to such Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV
elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of an Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the
Revolving Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement
(all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day
after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency
or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the
applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the applicable Borrower
and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis pursuant to a written confidentiality agreement in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. This
paragraph (h) may not be amended without the written consent of any SPV whose rights and obligations are affected thereby. 
  

 79 








 SECTION 10.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties
made by the Borrowers herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any
Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan
or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Revolving Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.21,
2.24(g) and 10.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit
and the Revolving Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 
 SECTION 10.06. Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. This Agreement, any promissory notes issued pursuant to this Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject
matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been
executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 10.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

SECTION 10.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at
any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits 
  

 80 








 
(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of either Borrower against
any of and all the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be
unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 

SECTION 10.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in
accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 
 (b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court
from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of
any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have
to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against either Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

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

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01.
Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. Fortune Brands UK hereby irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System (the “Process Agent”), with an
office on the date hereof at 111 Eighth Avenue, 13th floor, New York, New York 10011, United States, as its agent to receive on behalf of itself and its property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be
served in any such action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to Fortune Brands UK in care of the Process Agent (or any successor thereto, as the case may be) at such Process Agent’s above
address (or the address of any successor thereto, as the case may be), and Fortune Brands UK hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent (and any 

 

 81 








 
successor thereto) to accept such service on its behalf. Fortune Brands UK shall appoint a successor agent for service of process should the agency of CT Corporation System terminate for any
reason, and further shall at all times maintain an agent for service of process in New York, New York, so long as there shall be outstanding any Obligations. Fortune Brands UK shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any appointment of
successor agents for service of process, and shall obtain from each successor agent a letter of acceptance of appointment and promptly deliver the same to the Administrative Agent. As an alternative method of service, Fortune Brands UK also
irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to it at its address specified in Section 10.01. 

SECTION 10.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT
IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

SECTION 10.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only,
are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors and third
party providers of loan administration and settlement services (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information
confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) to
the extent necessary to prosecute or defend any claim, in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) with the consent of either
Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative 

 

 82 








 
Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than either Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information
received from either Borrower relating to either Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by either
Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from either Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of
Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, without the prior written consent of the Company, no projections, forecasts or projected financial information furnished by or on behalf of either Borrower to the
Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be disclosed to any Participant or prospective Participant pursuant to clause (f) hereof. 

SECTION 10.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate
applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum
Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in
respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and
the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the
date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 
 SECTION 10.14. Judgment. (a) If, for the purpose of
obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at
which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 

(b) The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the
“Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”),
be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the
relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if 
  

 83 








 
the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and
notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing
hereunder. 
 SECTION 10.15. Termination of Existing Credit Facilities. The Company and each Lender which as of the date
of this Agreement is a party to, or which has an Affiliate which is a party to, the Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement, hereby agrees that, effective as of the time each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 of this Agreement is
satisfied, the Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement shall automatically (and without further notice or other action by or to the Borrowers, such Lender, such Affiliate or any other Person) be terminated; the Commitments (as defined in the
Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement) under the Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement shall terminate in whole; and neither the Company, Fortune Brands UK, the Lender nor any Affiliate shall have any further rights or obligations
under the Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement, except for (i) the Lender’s or such Affiliate’s right to receive payment in full of all amounts which as of the termination date are owed to it in respect of outstanding
principal, accrued interest, accrued fees or other amounts payable, which right shall continue until full payment is made and (ii) rights or obligations under provisions of the Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreements which by the express
terms thereof survive termination of the Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement, which rights and obligations shall continue in accordance with the terms thereof. 

SECTION 10.16. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act
(Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “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 PATRIOT Act. 

SECTION 10.17. Non-Public Information. (a) Each Lender acknowledges that all information furnished to it pursuant to this
Agreement from each Borrower or on its behalf and relating to such Borrower, its Subsidiaries or its or their respective businesses may include material non-public information concerning such Borrower and its Subsidiaries or its or their securities,
and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with such procedures and applicable law, including Federal and
state securities laws. 
 (b) All such information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by each Borrower or
the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about such Borrower and its Subsidiaries and its and

  

 84 








 
their securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to each Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive
information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 

SECTION 10.18. No Fiduciary Duty. Each Borrower agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby
and any communications in connection therewith, such Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by
implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications. 

SECTION 10.19. Waiver of Notice Period in connection with Termination of the Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement. Each
Lender that is a party to the Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement hereby agrees that, without limiting the provisions of Section 10.05 thereof, such Lender’s commitment under the Existing Five-Year Revolving Credit Agreement will be
terminated simultaneously with the Effective Date and hereby waives the prior notice required for the termination of the commitments under the Existing Credit Agreement.

Lenders and the Administrative 
   Agent Referred to Below 

c/o JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as 

  Administrative Agent 
 270 Park
Avenue 
 New York, New York 10017 

Dear Sirs: 
 We have acted as
counsel for Fortune Brands, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Fortune Brands Finance UK p.l.c., an English public limited company (“Fortune Brands UK”), in connection with the Three-Year Revolving Credit Agreement
dated as of February 3, 2010 (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, Fortune Brands UK, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and the banks and other financial institutions identified therein as Lenders, Joint Lead
Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, Syndication Agent, and Co-Documentation Agents. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein with the same meanings. 

We have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records,
certificates of public officials and other instruments and have conducted such other investigations of fact and law as we have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of this opinion. In such examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures, the authenticity of documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic copies or facsimiles. 

In rendering this opinion to you, we have assumed that (a) each party to the Credit Agreement (other than the Company) has duly
executed and delivered the Credit Agreement and (b) the Credit Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto other than the Company and Fortune Brands UK. 

In rendering our opinion, we have relied as to matters of fact, to the extent we deem necessary and proper, on representations and
warranties and other statements as to certain factual matters contained in the Credit Agreement and certificates of officers and representatives of the Company. We have made no independent investigation as to whether the representations and
warranties and other statements in the Credit Agreement or any certificate referred to herein are accurate or complete. 









			
	To the Lenders and the Administrative	  	February 3, 2010
	    Agent Referred to Below	  	

  

 Upon the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that: 

1. The Company (a) is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware and
(b) has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. 
 2. The Transactions are within the
Company’s corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and, if required, stockholder action on behalf of the Company. The Credit Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company. 

3. The Credit Agreement constitutes, and the promissory notes evidencing the Loans (in the form annexed to the Credit Agreement,
appropriately completed), when duly executed and delivered in accordance with the Credit Agreement, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and Fortune Brands UK, in each case enforceable in accordance with their
respective terms. 
 4. The Transactions (a) do not require that the Company obtain any consent or approval of, or make any
registration or filing with, or secure any other action by, any Governmental Authority of the United States of America or of the State of New York, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, and except for filing of
a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission, (b) will not result in a violation by the Company of any law or regulation of the United States of America or of the State of New York which in our experience is
generally applicable to transactions like those contemplated by the Credit Agreement, (c) do not violate the amended and restated certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or, to our knowledge, any order of any Governmental
Authority of the United States of America or the State of New York binding on the Company or its assets, (d) will not violate or result in a default under any material indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Company or any of
its Material Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any material asset of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under any material indenture, agreement or other instrument that is binding upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its assets. 

5. There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority of the United States of America or
the State of New York pending against or, to our knowledge, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (a) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined,
could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Matters) or (b) that specifically involve either the Credit Agreement, any promissory note dated the date hereof
evidencing the Loans or the Transactions.

 6. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment
company” registered or required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. 
 Our opinions set forth above
are subject to the following qualifications and limitations: 
 (a) Our opinions contained in paragraph 3 above with respect to
the enforceability of the Credit Agreement are subject to the following qualifications: 
 (i) the enforceability
of the Credit Agreement may be limited by the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, including, without limitation, laws relating to
fraudulent transfers or conveyances, preferences and equitable subordination; 
 (ii) the enforceability of the
Credit Agreement may be limited by statutory requirements with respect to good faith, fair dealing and commercial reasonableness, by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law) and
by the effect of judicial decisions that have held that certain provisions are unenforceable where their enforcement would violate the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, or would be commercially unreasonable, or where a default is not
material; 
 (iii) the availability of equitable remedies, including without limitation specific enforcement and
injunctive relief, is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceedings therefor may be brought; and 

(iv) notwithstanding certain language of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may be limited to
recovering only reasonable compensation for funding losses, increased costs or yield protection. 
 (b) In giving the opinion
set forth in paragraph 3 above, we express no opinion as to: 
 (i) the enforceability of any provision in the
Credit Agreement that purports to establish (or may be construed to establish) evidentiary standards;

	To the Lenders and the Administrative	  	February 3, 2010

 (ii) the enforceability of any provision in the Credit Agreement insofar
as it provides for the payment or reimbursement of costs and expenses or indemnification for claims, losses, or liabilities in excess of a reasonable amount determined by any court or other tribunal or violates public policy; and 

(iii) the effect of the compliance or noncompliance of the Administrative Agent or any Lender with any state or federal
laws or regulations (including, without limitation, any unpublished order, decree, or directive issued by any governmental authority) applicable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender because of its legal or regulatory status, the nature of its
business, or its authority to conduct business in any jurisdiction. 
 (c) In giving the opinion set forth in paragraph 3 above
with respect to Fortune Brands UK, we have with your permission assumed that: 
 (i) Fortune Brands UK is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of England and has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Credit Agreement and promissory notes to which it is a party
(the “Fortune Brands UK Documents”); 
 (ii) Fortune Brands UK has duly authorized the execution,
delivery and performance of its obligations under the Fortune Brands UK Documents and has duly executed and delivered the Fortune Brands UK Documents; 

(iii) the execution and delivery by Fortune Brands UK of the Fortune Brands UK Documents and the performance of its
obligations thereunder do not (a) conflict with or constitute a default under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of its Memorandum of Association, Articles of Association or other organizational documents or (b) violate or conflict
with any law or regulation of England; and 
 (iv) no consent or authorization of, or filing with, any
governmental authority of England is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Fortune Brands UK of, or the validity or enforceability of, the Fortune Brands UK Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby.

the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Federal laws of the United States of America. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we express no opinion concerning the laws of any other jurisdiction in which any Lender may
be located or in which enforcement of the Credit Agreement or any promissory notes may be sought which limits the amount of interest that may be legally charged or collected.

 EXHIBIT B-2 

3 February 2010 
 To the Lenders and the
Administrative 
 Agent referred to below 

c/o JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 
 as Administrative
Agent 
 270 Park Avenue New York 
 New
York 10017 
 Dear Sirs, 

Three-Year Revolving Credit Agreement for Fortune Brands Finance UK p.l.c. - English Law Opinion 

 

	1.	INTRODUCTION 

 We have
acted as English legal counsel for Fortune Brands Finance UK p.l.c., a public limited company organised under the laws of England and Wales (the “UK Borrower”), in connection with a three-year revolving credit agreement to be
entered into between the UK Borrower, Fortune Brands, Inc., the banks and other financial institutions identified therein as Lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent, and Barclays Capital as Syndication Agent. 

This opinion is given pursuant to Section 4.01(b) of the Credit Agreement (as defined below). 

This opinion only concerns English law as currently applied by the English courts and is itself governed by English law. Insofar as
matters pertaining to New York law are concerned we understand that you are relying on a separate opinion from Chadbourne & Parke LLP dated the date of this opinion. We express no opinion as to matters of fact. 

 

	2.	INTERPRETATION 

 Unless
otherwise defined herein words and expressions used in the Credit Agreement (as defined below) have the same meaning in this opinion. In addition, in this opinion, each reference to a person is deemed to include a reference to a company,
partnership, unincorporated body and any other entity and vice versa. Searches and enquiries referred to in paragraphs 3.2 and 3.3 of this opinion are hereafter called the “Searches”. 








	3.	DOCUMENTS AND SEARCHES 

  

	3.1	Documents 

 In rendering
this opinion, we have examined and relied on copies of the following documents which form the sole basis for this opinion: 
  

	 	(a)	a final form draft of the three-year revolving credit agreement, to be entered into between the UK Borrower, Fortune Brands, Inc., the banks and other financial
institutions identified therein as Lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent, and Barclays Capital as Syndication Agent, as circulated by Chadbourne & Parke LLP on 3 February 2010 (the “Credit
Agreement”); 

  

	 	(b)	a copy of the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association of the UK Borrower as obtained from a search of the Registrar of Companies of England and Wales (the
“Companies Registry”) on 3 February 2010; 

  

	 	(c)	a copy of the UK Borrower’s Certificate of Incorporation of a public limited company as obtained from a search of the Companies Registry on 3 February 2010;


  

	 	(d)	a copy of the UK Borrower’s Certificate of Incorporation on Change of Name as obtained from a search of the Companies Registry on 3 February 2010;


  

	 	(e)	a copy of the UK Borrower’s Certificate of Entitlement (the “Borrower’s Certificate”) to do Business and Borrow as obtained from a search
result from the Companies Registry received on 3 February 2010; 

  

	 	(f)	an original Certificate of Good Standing with respect to the UK Borrower issued by Companies House on 3 February 2010; 


 

	 	(g)	a copy of the written resolutions of the Board of Directors of the UK Borrower, dated 29 January 2010, approving the UK Borrower’s entry into the Credit
Agreement, attached as Appendix A hereto; and 

  

	 	(h)	an officer’s certificate of the UK Borrower, attached as Appendix B hereto. 


 

	3.2	Insolvency Searches 

  

	 	(a)	 Searches made on 3 February 2010 at the Companies Registry against the UK Borrower, and a telephone enquiry made to the Central Registry of
Winding-up Petitions at 1:26pm (London time) on 3 February 2010 with respect to the UK Borrower revealed no petition, 










	 	
order or resolution for the winding-up of the UK Borrower and no petition for, and no notice of, appointment in respect of the UK Borrower of a receiver or administrator. However, such searches
at the Companies Registry are not conclusively capable of revealing whether or not: (i) a winding-up order has been made in respect of a company or a resolution passed for the winding-up of a company; or (ii) an administration order has
been made in respect of a company; or (iii) a receiver, administrative receiver, administrator or liquidator has been appointed in respect of a company or whether steps have been taken towards the same, because notice of these matters might not
be filed with the Registrar of Companies immediately and, when filed, might not be entered on the publicly available files of the relevant company immediately. In addition, such a search is not capable of revealing, prior to the making of the
relevant order, whether or not a winding-up petition or a petition for an administration order has been presented or whether steps have been taken towards the appointment of an administrator outside of court. 


 

	 	(b)	The enquiries at the Central Registry of Winding-up Petitions referred to above relate only to a compulsory winding-up and are not capable of revealing conclusively
whether or not a winding-up petition in respect of a compulsory winding-up has been presented, since details of the petition may not have been entered on the records of the Central Registry of Winding-up Petitions immediately or, in the case of a
petition presented to a County Court, may not have been notified to the Central Registry and entered on such records at all. 

  

	 	(c)	We have assumed that the information disclosed by such Searches was then accurate and has not since been altered and that such Searches did not fail to disclose any
information which had been delivered for registration but did not appear from the information available at the time of our Searches and that any oral enquiry did not fail to elicit any material information. 


 

	3.3	Charges Register Searches 

  

	 	(a)	Searches made of the publicly available files on 3 February 2010 at the Companies Registry against the UK Borrower disclosed no evidence of the creation of any
charge by the UK Borrower. 

  

	 	(b)	 The searches at the Companies Registry referred to above are not conclusive that no security interest exists, because (a) not all security
interests created by a company require to be registered at the Companies Registry; and (b) a period of 21 days is allowed within which to effect registration of a charge pursuant to Section 870 of the Companies Act 2006. For example, a
registrable charge created within 21 days prior to the Effective Date could have been delivered 










	 	
to the Companies Registry together with the prescribed particulars and yet not appear on the file and/or could still be delivered to the Companies Registry after the date of the relevant
document, but within such 21 day period, in either case without affecting the validity and priority of that earlier charge. 

  

	 	(c)	We have assumed that the information disclosed by such Searches was then accurate and has not since been altered and that the Searches did not fail to disclose any
information which had been delivered for registration but did not appear from the information available at the time of our Searches. 

  

	4.	ASSUMPTIONS 

  

	 	In giving this opinion, we have made the following assumptions. 

  

	4.1	Unexecuted Document That the draft of the Credit Agreement is to be duly executed and delivered, in the same form as that seen by us, by each of the parties to
it by a person or persons duly authorised to do so and that no amendments or changes will be made to the draft of the Credit Agreement seen by us. 

  

	4.2	Execution The genuineness of all signatures on, and the authenticity and completeness of, all documents submitted to us whether as originals or copies and that
the terms of the Credit Agreement are observed and performed by the parties thereto. 

  

	4.3	Copies The conformity to originals of all documents supplied to us as photocopies, facsimile or electronic copies. 


 

	4.4	Corporate Status That the directors of the UK Borrower have all been validly appointed and, in authorising execution of the Credit Agreement to which it is a
party, have exercised their powers in accordance with their duties under all applicable laws and the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association of the UK Borrower referred to in paragraph 3.1(b) above and the resolutions referred to in
paragraph 3.1(g) so authorising and such executions have not been revoked or varied since the date on which they were obtained or passed, will be in full force and effect as at the date of execution of the Credit Agreement and will remain in full
force and effect. 

  

	4.5	Other documents That all deeds, contracts, instruments, assignments, agreements and other documents in relation to the matters contemplated by the Credit
Agreement are within the capacity and powers of and have been duly authorised, executed, authenticated (where applicable) and delivered by each of the parties thereto, other than the UK Borrower, in accordance with all applicable laws of all
applicable jurisdictions. 









	4.6	Validity That the Credit Agreement and the rights and obligations created thereby, will when executed, constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of
each of the parties thereto in accordance with their respective terms under the laws of the State of New York, by which the Credit Agreement is expressed to be governed and that the choice of the laws of the State of New York to govern the Credit
Agreement is recognised by the laws of the State of New York and is not subject to avoidance by any person. 

  

	4.7	Good Faith That the Credit Agreement is being entered into, and each of the transactions referred to or contemplated in this opinion will be carried out by each
of the parties thereto, in good faith and for the purpose of carrying on their business; and the terms of the Credit Agreement are bona fide arm’s length commercial terms; and the Credit Agreement has been entered into for bona fide commercial
reasons. 

  

	4.8	Representations and warranties That the representations and warranties given by the UK Borrower in the Credit Agreement are true, correct, accurate and complete
in all respects and that any statements made by the UK Borrower that it does not know, is not aware of or believes it has had no notice of any act, matter, thing or circumstance means that in fact the same does not exist or has not occurred.


  

	4.9	Undue influence The presence of good faith and the absence of fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, coercion, duress or undue influence on the part of any of the
parties to the Credit Agreement, their respective directors, employees, agents and advisers (excepting, of course, ourselves), all payments made pursuant to the Credit Agreement will be credited or paid directly to the UK Borrower in the manner
contemplated by the Credit Agreement and will be dealt with only in accordance with the Credit Agreement and in particular that the UK Borrower will not operate in a manner inconsistent with the Credit Agreement. 


 

	4.10	Disclosure All material facts and documents relevant to this opinion have been disclosed to us. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion which have
not been independently established by us, we have relied on the truth, accuracy and completeness in all respects of the certificates or other documents attached thereto or otherwise referred to in this opinion. 


 

	4.11	Searches and amendments The Searches and the certificates referred to in paragraph 3.1 were accurate and complete and none of the documents in paragraph 3.1 has
been amended since the dates specified in that paragraph. 

 We have not taken any steps to verify any of the above assumptions.









	5.	OPINION 

 Based upon, and
subject to, the foregoing and subject to the assumptions in paragraph 4 above and subject to the observations and qualifications in paragraphs 6 and 7 below, and to matters not disclosed to us, we opine as follows, in respect of the present laws of
England, as applied by the English courts at the date of this opinion. 
  

	5.1	Corporate status Based solely on the results of the Searches the UK Borrower has been duly incorporated as a public limited company and registered in England and
Wales and no order or resolution for its winding up and no notice of appointment in respect of it of a liquidator, receiver, administrative receiver or administrator and no petition for the winding up of the UK Borrower has been presented as at the
date of this opinion. 

  

	5.2	Liquidation Based solely on the results of the Searches no step has been taken that could lead to or result in the liquidation, dissolution, administration or
analogous procedure with respect to the UK Borrower or the appointment of a liquidator, receiver, administrator, manager, custodian, trustee or person holding an analogous position with respect to the UK Borrower nor has any such procedure or
appointment commenced. 

  

	5.3	Corporate approvals The consent of any person which is required by virtue of the UK Borrower’s Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association in
relation to the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement and the performance and observation of the terms thereof by the UK Borrower has been obtained and none of those actions by the UK Borrower will infringe the terms of, or constitute a
default by the UK Borrower under its Memorandum of Association or Articles of Association and the UK Borrower has taken all necessary corporate action to authorise the execution, performance and observance of the Credit Agreement and the Credit
Agreement has been duly executed by the UK Borrower. 

  

	5.4	Corporate power The UK Borrower has the necessary corporate power (a) to own property and to carry on the business of providing loans and other financing to
any companies for the time being directly or indirectly controlled by the holding company of the UK Borrower and (b) to execute, perform and observe the Credit Agreement and no such execution, performance or observance is contrary to any
provision of its Memorandum or Articles of Association. 

  

	5.5	Choice of law The courts of England and Wales will recognise and enforce the choice of law provisions contained in the Credit Agreement.


  

	5.6	Recognition of foreign judgments The English courts will recognise and enforce a valid judgment entered against the UK Borrower under the Credit Agreement by a
court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York as a debt or obligation due by a respondent to a claimant under English law on which a claimant can bring a separate action in an English court without re-examination or re-litigation of the
merits provided that: 

  

	 	(a)	the judgment was for a fixed and actually ascertained sum of money rather than performance of specific contractual obligations; 









	 	(b)	the judgment was final and conclusive between the parties notwithstanding that it may be subject to an appeal or that an appeal is pending; 


 

	 	(c)	the judgment was not obtained by fraud, duress or in a manner opposed to the principles of natural justice; 


 

	 	(d)	the judgment was not directly or indirectly for the payment of taxes or other public charges of a like nature or a fine or other penalty (but the judgment may be for a
contractual obligation to reimburse another party for taxes paid by it); 

  

	 	(e)	the judgment was not given in proceedings brought in breach of an agreement for settlement of disputes; 


 

	 	(f)	the judgment is free from conflict with any other judgment that the English courts would recognise as valid and does not amount to a judgment on a matter previously
determined by an English court; 

  

	 	(g)	enforcement or recognition of the judgment is not contrary to public policy as applied in the English courts; 


 

	 	(h)	the judgment remains valid and enforceable in the court in which it was obtained unless and until it is set aside; 


 

	 	(i)	the judgment is not one which the Protection of Trading Interests Act 1980 provides an English court may not enforce including specifically: (a) a judgment which
breaches a rule of law specified in an order made by the Secretary of State in England as being concerned with the prohibition or regulation of agreements, arrangements or practices designed to restrain, distort or restrict competition, (b) a
judgment which is for multiple damages; and (c) a judgment on a claim of contribution in respect of a judgment given against a third party and of a type within (a) or (b) of this paragraph; and 


 

	 	(j)	enforcement procedures in respect of the judgment are instituted within the period prescribed by the Limitation Act 1980 or the time period for enforcement prescribed
by New York law, whichever is shorter. 

  

	5.7	 Consents Based on our review of those laws which are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Credit Agreement
(“Applicable Law”), other than the Borrower’s Certificate, no consents, approvals, orders or other authorisations are required by the UK Borrower 










	 	
from any Governmental Authority in England in connection with the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement by the UK Borrower or the performance by the UK Borrower of its obligations under
the Credit Agreement. The execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement by the UK Borrower and the performance by the UK Borrower of its obligations under the Credit Agreement will not violate any Applicable Law or, to our knowledge, any order of
any Governmental Authority in England. 

  

	5.8	Liens The execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Agreement, the borrowing of Loans and the use of the proceeds thereof by the UK Borrower will not
result in the creation or imposition of any Lien under English law (save for any banker’s lien) against the UK Borrower. 

  

	5.9	No Conflict The execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Agreement, the borrowing of Loans and the use of the proceeds thereof by the UK Borrower will
not violate or result in a default under any material indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the UK Borrower or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the UK Borrower.


  

	6.	OBSERVATIONS 

  

	6.1	It should be understood that for the purposes of this opinion, we have not been responsible for investigating or verifying (and have taken no steps to investigate or
verify) the accuracy of the facts, or the reasonableness of any statements of opinion or intention, contained in the documents referred to in paragraph 3.1 of this opinion or the accuracy or completeness of any of the representations and warranties
as to fact given by the UK Borrower under the Credit Agreement. 

  

	6.2	We do not express any opinion herein as to, nor have we investigated for the purposes of this opinion, the laws of any jurisdiction other than England (including those
of the European Union, save to the extent those European Union laws (including Directives and Regulations) have been incorporated into English law). Further, it is assumed that no foreign law (including those of the European Union), which may apply
with respect to the Credit Agreement or any of the transactions and matters contemplated thereby would be such as to affect any of the conclusions stated in this opinion. We have not been requested nor are we required to update this opinion in the
future. 

  

	7.	QUALIFICATIONS 

 This
opinion is given subject to the following qualifications: 
  

	7.1	with your agreement, we express no opinion as to the enforceability of the obligations of the UK Borrower under the Credit Agreement; and 









	7.2	no opinion is given as to any consequences with respect to Taxes (including value added tax) arising out of the Credit Agreement. 


 

	8.	BENEFIT OF OPINION 

 This
opinion is addressed to you for your sole benefit and may not, without our prior written consent, be relied upon by any other person or be disclosed to any other person (other than your successors and assigns as Lenders and Persons that acquire
participations in your Loans) or be filed with any person or quoted or referred to in any public document. 
 This opinion is
strictly limited to the matters stated in it and does not apply by implication to any other matters. 
  

	
	Yours faithfully

 EXHIBIT C 

MANDATORY COST FORMULAE 
  

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


 

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

  

	3.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a facility office in a participating member state will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the
Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from
that facility office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that facility office. 

  

	4.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a facility office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows:


  

	 	(a)	in relation to a sterling Loan: 

  

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

  

	 	(b)	in relation to a Loan in any currency other than 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 Margin and the Mandatory Cost and any additional rate of interest specified in paragraph (e) of
Section 2.12(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 Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits. 


 

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

  

	5.	For the purposes of this Schedule: 

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

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


 

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


 

 2 









	7.	If requested by the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Administrative
Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Lender 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 Lender as being the
average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Lender for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Lender. 


 

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

  

	 	(a)	the jurisdiction of its facility office; and 

  

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


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

 

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


 

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


 

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

  

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

  

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