any such event, stating the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate the Lenders for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrower directly to the Administrative Agent
for the accounts of the Lenders within five days of its receipt of such notice, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. 

SECTION 4.2 Increased Capital Costs. If any Change in Law affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be
maintained by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender, and such Lender determines (in good faith but in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of the
Commitments or the Loans made by it hereunder is reduced to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then upon notice from time to time by such Lender to the
Borrower, the Borrower shall within five days following receipt of such notice pay directly to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such
reduction in rate of return. A statement of such Lender as to any such additional amount or amounts shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any method of
averaging and attribution that it (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem applicable.

 SECTION 4.3 Taxes. The Borrower covenants and agrees as follows with respect to
Taxes: 
 (a) Except as required by applicable Law, any and all payments by any Loan Party under each Loan Document shall be made without
setoff, counterclaim or other defense, and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes. In the event that any Taxes are imposed and required to be deducted or withheld from any payment required to be made
by any Loan Party to or on behalf of the Lenders under any Loan Document, then: 
 (i) if such Taxes are
Non-Excluded Taxes, then the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after the deduction or withholding of Non-Excluded Taxes has been made (including such
deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding for
Non-Excluded Taxes been made; and 
 (ii) the applicable Loan Party shall deduct or withhold the
full amount of Taxes required to be deducted or withheld from such payment (as increased pursuant to clause (a)(i)) and shall pay such amount to the Governmental Authority imposing such Taxes in accordance with applicable Law. 

(b) In addition, the applicable Loan Party shall pay all Other Taxes imposed to the relevant Governmental Authority imposing such Other Taxes
in accordance with applicable Law. 
 (c) As promptly as practicable after the payment of any Taxes or Other Taxes required to be paid by
the applicable Loan Party under Section 4.3(a) or (b), the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent a copy of an official receipt (or a certified copy thereof) or other evidence of such payment reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes. 
 (d) The Borrower shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent and each Lender for any Non-Excluded Taxes (including Non-Excluded Taxes attributable to such indemnification payments) levied, imposed or assessed
on (and whether or not paid directly by) the Administrative Agent or such Lender whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes are correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, together with
such Person’s reasonable expenses relating thereto, within 10 Business Days of written demand therefor. In addition, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for any incremental Taxes that may become payable by such
Lender or the Administrative Agent as a result of any failure of the Borrower to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or to deliver to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, pursuant to clause (c), documentation
evidencing the payment of Taxes or Other Taxes. With respect to the indemnification provided in the immediately preceding sentence, such indemnification shall be made within 10 Business Days after the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender
makes written demand therefor. 
 (e) For purposes of sections 1272, 1273 and 1275 of the Code and the U.S. Department of Treasury
regulations thereunder, the Loans are being made with original issue discount. Requests for information regarding the issue price, amount of original issue discount, issue date, and yield to maturity on the Loans shall be directed to the Borrower,
at the address of the Borrower specified on Schedule 10.2. 
 (f) Each party’s obligations under this
Section 4.3 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or
discharge of all other Obligations. 
 SECTION 4.4 Payments, Computations, Etc. 

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Loan Parties pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made
without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date due in same day or immediately available funds, marked for attention as indicated, or in such other manner or to such other account in any United States bank as the
Administrative Agent may from time to time direct in writing. Funds received after 11:00 a.m. on any day shall be deemed 

  
 31 













 
to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. All interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days occurring during the period for which such interest or
fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days. Payments due on other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with that
payment. 
 (b) [Reserved.] 

(c) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.4(c) are
several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under Section 10.4(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on
such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to make its payment under Section 10.4(c). 

(d) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute
a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 
 (e) If any
Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on its portion of any of the Loans or any Repayment Premium in connection therewith resulting in such Lender’s receiving
payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Loans and accrued interest thereon and any Repayment Premium in connection therewith greater than its Applicable Percentage thereof as provided herein, then the Lender shall (x) notify the
Administrative Agent of such fact and (y) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the portions of the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall
be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of, accrued interest on and any Repayment Premium in connection with their respective portions of the Loans and other amounts owing them; 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
Section 4.4(e) shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender
as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its portion of the Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to a Loan Party (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). 

Each Loan Party 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 Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such
participation. 
 SECTION 4.5 Setoff. Subject in all respects to Section 4.4(e), each Lender shall, upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (iv) of Section 9.1(h) or, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, have the right
to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations owing to it (whether or not then due), and (as security for such Obligations) the Borrower hereby grants to each Lender a continuing security interest in, any and all balances, credits,
deposits, accounts or moneys of the Borrower then or thereafter maintained with or on behalf of such Lender. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such appropriation and application made by it; provided that the failure
to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 4.5 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under
applicable Law or otherwise) which each Lender may have but do not supersede the provisions of Section 4.4(e).

 SECTION 4.6 Status of Lenders: Treatment of Certain Refunds. 

(a) Any Lender that is legally entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan
Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding; provided that such Lender has received written notice from the Borrower or the Administrative Agent advising it of the
availability of such exemption or reduction and containing all applicable documentation (together, if requested by such Lender, with a certified English translation thereof). In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such
Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Lender agrees that, from time to time if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or as soon as practicable after becoming aware that any
form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or has become inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal
inability to do so. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if, in such Lender’s reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender
or the Administrative Agent to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

(b) Each Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Laws and at such time or times reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Laws (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA, or to determine the
amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from payment, in each case if FATCA is applicable. 
 (c) If any Lender determines, in its sole
discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Article (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the Borrower an
amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Article with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of -pocket expenses (including any
Taxes) of such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Borrower, upon the request of such Lender, shall repay to such Lender the amount paid over pursuant to
this paragraph (c) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this paragraph (c). in no event will the Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (c) the payment of which would place such Lender in a less favorable net
after-Tax position than such Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments
or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the
Borrower or any other Person.

Inside Information. The general meetings of the Supervisory Board shall take place on no less than a quarterly basis. Holdings shall concurrently deliver to the Observers all notices and any materials delivered to the Supervisory Board in connection
with any such meeting or action to be taken by written consent, including a draft of any material resolutions or actions proposed to be adopted by written consent, except to the extent that such Observer elects not to attend any such meeting (or
receive any such resolutions, actions by written consent or other materials related thereto) in order to avoid receiving Inside Information. The Observers shall be free prior to such meeting or adoption by consent to contact the Supervisory Board
and discuss the ending actions to be taken.

c. If an issue is to be discussed or otherwise arises at any meeting of the Supervisory Board (or any materials arc to be distributed at any
such meeting) which, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Supervisory Board, is not appropriate to be discussed in the presence of any Observer in order to avoid an actual or potential conflict of interest on the part of such Observer or
would result in disclosure of trade secrets, or to the extent that attendance by such Observer at any such meeting (or receipt of any 

  
 55 













 
such materials) would violate, jeopardize, impair or otherwise adversely affect an attorney-client privilege (or other legally recognized privilege), or to the extent that attendance by such
Observer at such meeting (or receipt of any such materials) would cause the Borrower to provide Inside Information to any Observer that has not elected to receive Inside Information, then such issue may be discussed without such Observer being
present, and any materials delivered to the Supervisory’ Board pertaining to such issue need not be delivered to such Observer, so long as such Observer is given notice of the occurrence of such judgment by the Supervisory Board, that such
Observer is being excused, and that certain materials will not be delivered to such Observer.

without the express prior written consent of such Public-Side Lender (which consent may be provided by written notice to the Borrower in a specified case or on an ongoing basis (subject in any case to such Public-Side Lender’s right to withdraw
such consent in a subsequent written notice to the Borrower)). 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that any
Loan Party believes that any notice, report, information or communication required to be provided hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Public-Side Lender contains Inside Information, the Borrower shall (i) so indicate to such
Public-Side Lender prior to delivery of such notice, report, information or communication (without otherwise disclosing or describing the nature of such Inside Information), which indication shall provide such Public-Side Lender the means to refuse
to receive such notice, report, information or communication (and in the absence of any such indication, such Public-Side Lender shall be allowed to 

  
 56 













 
presume that such notice, repo rt, information or communication does not contain Inside Information), and (ii) provide such notice, report, information or communication to Outside Counsel to
such Public-Side Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, in the event of a breach of any of the foregoing covenants by any Loan Party, any of its Affiliates, or any of its or their respective
officers, directors (or equivalent persons), employees, attorneys, agents or representatives, in addition to any other remedies provided in the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity, any Public-Side Lender shall have the right to
Publicly Disclose in the form of a press release or otherwise, of the applicable Inside Information without the prior approval by any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates, officers, directors (or equivalent persons), employees, stockholders,
attorneys, agents or representatives, and such Public-Side Lender shall not have any liability to any Loan Party, any of its Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors (or equivalent persons), employees, shareholders,

Agent were the Borrower for purposes thereof, and (ii) no Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender shall be deemed to be in possession of any Inside Information because such Inside Information was provided to the Administrative Agent, any other

of the delivery of the first financial Statements to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c), the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 5.6)), the Borrower shall
designate sufficient Subsidiaries as “Material Subsidiaries” to eliminate such excess, and such designated Subsidiaries shall for all purposes of this Agreement constitute “Material Subsidiaries”, provided that any
Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of France and whose business, assets and operations solely relate to distributions, marketing and sales of Products to customers in France shall be disregarded for purposes of this
Section 7.16. 
 SECTION 7.17 Post-Closing Obligations. Holdings and the Borrower will, and will cause each
other Loan Party to, take each of the actions described on Schedule 7.17, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document with respect to any such action, in each case, in the form or manner specified

be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or
knowledge of any Default at the time of the borrowing of any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. The agreements in this Section and the indemnity
provisions of Section 10.2(b) shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other
Obligations.

 SECTION 10.10 Successors and Assigns.

 (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and thereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder without the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of
this Section, or (ii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (d) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). 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 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of
each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. No assignment or transfer of any Commitment or Loan shall be effective until receipt and acceptance into the
Register by the Administrative Agent of a fully executed Assignment and Assumption effecting the assignment or transfer thereof, together with the required forms and certificates regarding tax matters and any fees payable in connection with such
assignment, in each case, as provided in Section 10.4(b). The date of such assignment shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective Date.” 

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Subject to the provisions of clause (f) below, any Lender may at any time assign to one or more
assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or any portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be
subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) Minimum Amounts. 

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing
to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved
Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 
 (B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the
aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such
assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade
Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); 

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned; provided, however, that funded Delayed Draw Term Loans and outstanding Delayed Draw Commitment Amount shall not be required
to be assigned together; 
 (iii) Required Consents. In addition to any consent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this
Section and, in addition, the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments to a Person that is not an Eligible Assignee. 

  
 73 













 (iv) Assignment and Assumption. Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Commitments
by Lenders shall be effected by execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment and Assumption. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Effective Date, subject to acceptance
and recording thereof in the Register by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.10(c). In connection with all assignments there shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent such forms, certificates or other
evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment and Assumption may be requested to deliver by the Administrative Agent, together with payment to the Administrative Agent of
a registration and processing fee of $3,500, which may be waived or reduced at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent. 
 (v)
No Assignment to Certain Persons. Without limiting the provisions of Section 10.10(b)(iii), no such assignment shall be made to a Loan Party or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of a Loan Party, or any Person who, upon
becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons (other than to the Lenders on the date hereof and their respective Affiliates). 

(vi) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after
the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender
under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption
covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.3 and 10.4 with respect to facts and circumstances
occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that
does not comply with this subsection shall be null and void. 
 (c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this
purpose a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it
(or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms
hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in
the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice. 
 (d) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such
Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (e)
Administrative Agent. Any corporation or associat10n into which the Administrative Agent may be converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust
business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which the Administrative Agent is a party, will be and become the successor
to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and will have and succeed to the rights, powers, duties, immunities and privileges as its predecessor, without the execution or filing of any instrument or paper or the performance of any further act.

 (f) Right of First Refusal. 

  
 74 













 (i) Initial Lender Assignments. If any Initial Lender (such Initial Lender, the
“Selling Lender”) proposes to assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its Loans and/or Commitments (collectively, the “ROFR Loans”) to a third party or Person (other than an Affiliate or
managed or related fund of such Selling Lender), before consummating any such assignment or other transfer with respect to such Loans and/or Commitments with any other third party or Person, such Selling Lender must first give written notice (the
“ROFR Notice”) to the other Initial Lender (such other Initial Lender, the “ROFR Lender”) of its intention to assign or otherwise transfer the ROFR Loans. The ROFR Notice must set forth the ROFR Loans
to be purchased. Such ROFR Notice will constitute a notice to the ROFR Lender that it may elect to purchase all of the ROFR Loans. At any time within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the ROFR Notice (the “ROFR
Period”), the ROFR Lender shall have the option, exercisable by delivery of a written notice to that effect to the Selling Lender (a “ROFR Exercise Notice”), to purchase all of the ROFR Loans for cash at the
price specified by the Selling Lender. Prior to the expiration of the ROFR Period, the Selling Lender may not assign or otherwise transfer the ROFR Loans to any third party or Person other than the ROFR Lender. 

(ii) Sale Pursuant to Exercise of ROFR. If the ROFR Lender timely delivers a ROFR Exercise Notice, the Selling Lender and the ROFR
Lender shall execute all appropriate documentation (including any documentation required by Section 10.10(b)(iv) of this Agreement) to consummate the transaction within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such ROFR
Exercise Notice (or such longer time as may be necessary to obtain any necessary regulatory approvals) and take all such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transaction. If the ROFR Lender fails to deliver a ROFR Exercise
Notice during the ROFR Period, then the Selling Lender may, for a period of 180 days after the expiration of the ROFR Period, freely assign or otherwise transfer the ROFR Loans to a third party on the terms set forth in this Agreement. 

(iii) Failure to Consummate a Transfer. If the ROFR Lender fails to deliver a ROFR Exercise Notice during the ROFR Period and the
Selling Lender does not consummate an assignment or other transfer in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.10(f) within 180 days following the expiration of the ROFR Period, then the Selling Lender may not then
effect an assignment or other transfer that is subject to this Section 10.10(f) without again fully complying with the provisions of this Section 10.10(f). 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any
duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce compliance with the provisions set forth above in this Section 10.10(f) relating to any assignment or transfer by an Initial Lender. 

SECTION 10.11 Other Transactions. Nothing contained herein shall preclude any Lender or any of its Affiliates from engaging in any
transaction, in addition to those contemplated by the Loan Documents, with the Borrower or any of its Affiliates in which the Borrower or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person. 

SECTION 10.12 Arbitration; Forum Selection; Consent to Jurisdiction. Any dispute, controversy or claim (of any and every kind or type,
whether based on contract, tort, statute, regulation, or otherwise) arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereunder (other than any other Loan Document), including any dispute as to the
construction, validity, interpretation, enforceability or breach of this Agreement (a “Dispute”), shall be submitted to resolution by final and binding arbitration. The following provisions shall apply to arbitration
proceedings pursuant to this Section 10,12: 
 (a) The place of arbitration will be New York, New York. The
arbitration will be conducted in the English language and all documents filed or otherwise provided as part of the arbitration shall be in the English language, or include a certified English language translation if in another language. 

(b) The arbitral proceedings shall be carried out under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce
(“ICC”). The arbitral tribunal shall be composed of (A) a sole arbitrator 

  
 75 













 
if the monetary value of the Dispute is $5,000,000 (or its currency equivalent) or less, and (B) three arbitrators if the monetary value of the Dispute is greater than $5,000,000 (or its
currency equivalent) or if the relief sought includes any which is not monetary in nature. In the case of a sole arbitrator, the parties to the Dispute shall endeavor to mutually agree upon the identity of such arbitrator within 30 days after the
date on which the respondent(s)’ answer is filed in the arbitration. If there are to be three arbitrators, the claimant(s) and respondent(s) shall each nominate one arbitrator within 30 days after the date on which the respondent(s)’
answer is filed and the two arbitrators will endeavor within the following 30 days to agree upon the third arbitrator who shall be the chairman of the arbitral tribunal. If any arbitrator is not nominated pursuant to the two immediately preceding
sentences, the ICC shall appoint such arbitrator. 
 (c) In matters of document production, the arbitral tribunal and the parties shall be
guided by the 2010 International Bar Association Rules on the Taking of Evidence in International Arbitration, with the intent of the parties to limit document production to what is essential in order to resolve the Dispute. The arbitral tribunal
shall not have the power to award, nor shall the arbitral tribunal award, any punitive, indirect, incidental or consequential damages or awards for diminution in value or lost profits (however any such award is denominated). The arbitral tribunal is
authorized to take any interim measures as it considers necessary, including the making of interim orders or awards or partial final awards. An interim order or award may be enforced in the same manner as a final award using the procedures specified
below. Further, the arbitral tribunal is authorized to make pre- or post-award interest at applicable statutory interest rates during the relevant period. 

(d) The written award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding. Except to the extent set forth in the following sentence, each
Party hereby waives irrevocably and unconditionally any right to appeal such arbitration award and its rights to any form of review or recourse to any court or other judicial authority, in each case to the extent such rights may be waived. Judgment
upon the award rendered by the arbitral tribunal may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. 
 (e) Subject to
Section 10.4, all arbitration costs and fees (including the costs of legal representation and witness expenses) incurred by the prevailing party or parties to a Dispute shall be borne by the party or parties against whom
the applicable arbitral award is made. No arbitrator or arbitration panel under this Section 10.12 shall award any Losses for which recovery is prohibited under Section 10.4(d). 

f. Any Dispute and any negotiations, mediation and arbitration proceedings between the parties thereto regarding such Dispute shall be
confidential and shall be subject to Section 10.14. 
 g. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, ANY SUIT SEEK ING
ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’ S OR THE REQUIRED LENDERS’ OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND AND ANY LITIGATION
REGARDING ANY SECURITY AGREEMENTS GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION (INCLUDING ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT UNDER SUCH SECURITY AGREEMENT) SHALL BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN THE COURTS OF SUCH JURISDICTION TO THE EXTENT THAT THE TERMS OF SUCH
SECURITY AGREEMENTS REQUIRE SUCH FORUM AND/OR VENUE. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY APPOINTS CORPORATION SERVICE COMPANY (CSC) AS ITS AUTHORIZED AGENT UPON WHICH PROCESS MAY BE SERVED IN ANY SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN THE UNITED STATES, AND AGREES THAT SERVICE
OF PROCESS UPON SUCH AGENT, AND WRITTEN NOTICE OF SAID SERVICE TO THE BORROWER, BY THE PERSON SERVING THE SAME TO THE ADDRESS PROVIDED IN SECTION 10.2, SHALL CONSTITUTE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS UPON THE BORROWER IN ANY SUCH SUIT OR
PROCEEDING. THE BORROWER FURTHER AGREES TO TAKE ANY AND ALL ACTION AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO MAINTAIN SUCH DESIGNATION AND APPOINTMENT OF SUCH AGENT IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT UNTIL ALL OBLIGATIONS HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY
CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF NEW YORK AT THE ADDRESS FOR NOTICES SPECIFIED IN SECTION 10.2. THE BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES.

DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE BORROWER HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM
ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW
SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. 
 SECTION 10.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, THE LENDERS AND THE BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY WRY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER,
OR IN CONNECTION WITH, EACH LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE BORROWER IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND
AGREES THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AN SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER PROVISION OF EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY) AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE
LENDERS ENTERING INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. 
 SECTION 10.14 Confidential Information. Subject to the provisions of
Section 10.15, at all times prior to the Termination Date, the Receiving Party shall keep confidential and shall not publish or otherwise disclose any Confidential Information furnished to it by the Disclosing Party, except
to those of the Receiving Party’s employees, advisors or consultants who have a need to know such information to assist such Party in the performance of such Party’s obligations or in the exercise of such Party’s rights hereunder and
who are subject to reasonable obligations of confidentiality consistent with this Section 10.14 (collectively, “Recipients”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any Lender may
disclose Confidential Information to (i) its Affiliates, (ii) potential and actual assignees of any of such Lender’s rights hereunder and (iii) potential and actual investors in, or lenders to, such Lender (including, in each of
the foregoing cases, such Person’s employees, advisors or consultants); provided that in each case, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each such Recipient shall be subject to reasonable obligations of
confidentiality no less restrictive than those imposed by this Agreement. In addition to the foregoing, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information belonging to the Disclosing Party to the extent (and only to the extent) such
disclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable Laws (including any securities law or regulation or the rules of a securities exchange) and with judicial process, if in the reasonable opinion of the Receiving Party’s
counsel, such disclosure is necessary for such compliance; provided that the Receiving Party (x) will only disclose those portions of the Confidential Information that are necessary or required to be so disclosed, and (y) to the
extent legally permissible, will notify the Disclosing Party of the Receiving Party’s intent to make any disclosure pursuant thereto sufficiently prior to making such disclosure so as to allow the Disclosing Party time to take whatever action
it may deem appropriate to protect the confidentiality of the information to be disclosed. 
 SECTION 10.15 Exceptions to
Confidentiality. The Receiving Party’s obligations set forth this Agreement shall not extend to any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party: 

(a) that is or hereafter becomes part of the public domain (other than as a result of a disclosure by the Receiving Party or its Recipients in
violation of this Agreement); 
 (b) that is received from a Third Party without restriction on disclosure and without, to the knowledge of

 SECTION 10.16 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any
Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided
under each other Loan Document, arc cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the
Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 11.1 for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own
behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with
Section 4.5 (subject to the terms of Section 4.4(e)) or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding
relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law or any proceedings arising out of or in connection with an Insolvency Event; provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder

clauses (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 4.4(c), any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required
Lenders. 
 SECTION 10.17 Conversion of Currencies. 

(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 any Loan Party 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
the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, each Loan Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the

 78 













 (c) For purposes of calculating financial covenants and reporting financial metrics
hereunder (and for computing related defined financial terms herein), the applicable amount of any Canadian dollars for purposes of this Agreement shall be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent amount of such Canadian dollars. 

SECTION 10.18 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Loan Party is made to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, receiver, manager, monitor or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor
Relief Law, any proceedings arising out of or in connection with an Insolvency Event or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in
full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so
recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to tune in effect. The obligations
of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.19 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “execute,” “execution,”
“signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption or in any amendment or other modification hereof (including waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic
matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a
manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York
State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 SECTION
10.20 No Usury; Criminal Rate of Interest. 
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged
with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable Law shall not exceed the highest rate permitted by applicable Law. If the rate of interest (determined
without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the highest lawful rate permitted by applicable Law, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the highest lawful rate permitted by
applicable Law until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest that would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. Accordingly, if any Lender
contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration that constitutes interest in excess of the highest lawful rate permitted by applicable Law, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such
Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Loan Parties. 
 (b) If any
provision of this Agreement would oblige the Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to the Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by that person of
“interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms arc construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the
maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, that would not be so prohibited by applicable law or so result in a receipt by that person of “interest” at a “criminal rate”, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent
necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows: 
 (i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest; and 

  
 79 













 (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other
amounts required to be paid which would constitute interest for purposes of section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). 
 SECTION
10.21 Release from Banking Secrecy. Each Loan Party hereby expressly waives any rights it may have in respect of banking secrecy under applicable laws, including without limitation pursuant to section 38 (2) of the Austrian Banking Act
(Bankwesengesetz), as amended and supplemented from time to time, under or in connection with any Loan Document and releases the Administrative Agent and any Lender in respect to such banking secrecy. Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and
any Lender may disclose all information (including Confidential Information) concerning the Loan Documents and the transactions envisaged thereunder or any Loan Party that has been provided to the Lender by or on behalf of a Loan Party (including,

the presence of a Default or Event of Default, any financial information on a Loan Party) in such circumstances and to such persons as permitted under this Agreement, in particular Section 10.14 (Confidential
Information) and Section 10.15 (Exceptions to Confidentiality). 
 SECTION 10.22 Place of
Performance. The Parties agree that the sole place of performance for all rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be the Administrative Agent’s Office, provided that the Administrative Agent is entitled to select another place of
performance if such place is outside of Austria. This means in particular that payments under this Agreement must be made from and to bank accounts outside of Austria. The Parties explicitly agree that any performance in Austria and any payment from
or to a bank account in Austria shall not effectively settle any obligations (keine schuldbefreiende Wirkung). 
 SECTION 10.23
Independent Nature of Lenders. The obligations of each Lender under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Lender, and no Lender shall be responsible in any way for the
performance of the obligations of any other Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Each Lender shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

Relationship. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) each Lender is acting at arm’s length from the Loan Parties with respect to this Agreement and the Loan Parties and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby;
(b) no Lender will, solely by virtue of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, become an Affiliate of, or have any agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship with, any of the Loan
Parties; (c) no Lender has acted, or is or will be acting, as a financial advisor to, or fiduciary (or in any similar capacity) of, or has any fiduciary or similar duty to, any of the Loan Parties with respect to, or in connection with, this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and the Loan Parties agree not to assert, and hereby waives, any claim that any Lender has any fiduciary duty to any of the Loan Parties; (d) any
advice given by a Lender or any of its representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to such Lender’s performance of its
obligations hereunder and thereunder; and (e) the Loan Parties’ decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Loan Parties and their representatives.

 ARTICLE 11 

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

SECTION 11.1 Appointment and Authority. 

(a) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Wilmington Trust, National Association to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents 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 or thereof, together with such
actions and powers as are incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of
any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or
other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

 (b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders hereby
irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations,
together with such powers and discretion as are incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” (and any co-agents,
sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.5 for
purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Agreement, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the
benefits of all provisions of Article X (including Section 10.4(c)), as though such co-agents, sub- agents and
attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) and this Article XI as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 

(c) The Administrative Agent declares that it holds the Liens on Collateral granted pursuant to the English Debenture on trust for the Secured
Parties on the terms contained in this Agreement. 
 (d) Each of the Lenders authorizes the Administrative Agent to perform the duties,
obligations and responsibilities and to exercise the rights, powers, authorities and discretions specifically given to the Administrative Agent under or in connection with the Loan Documents together with any other incidental rights, powers,
authorities and discretions. 
 SECTION 11.2 Rights as a Lender. The Person 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 the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or
unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial
advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the
Lenders. 
 SECTION 11.3 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those
expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing; 

  
 81 













 (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary
powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of
the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action or to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement
at the request or direction of the Lenders, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Lenders shall have offered to the Administrative Agent security or indemnity (satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute
discretion) against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction, or that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is
contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law; and 

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for
the failure to dis close, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the 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 (i) with the consent or at the request of the
Required Lenders or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. Subject to the proviso in
Section 11.3(b), to the extent the Administrative Agent is permitted to take any discretionary action hereunder or under any Loan Document, it shall take such action if instructed in writing to do so by the Required
Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, or a
Lender. 
 The Administrative Agent shall have the right to request instructions from the Required Lenders or, as required, each of the
Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall request instructions from the Required Lenders or each of the Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith
shall be necessary under the circumstances), as the case may be, with respect to any act or action (including the failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain
from such act or taking such action unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders or such other number or percentage of the Lenders, as the ease may be, and the Administrative Agent shall not
incur any liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. 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 or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants,
agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other
agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

The Administrative Agent shall have no liability for any action taken, or errors in judgment made, in good faith by it or any of its officers,
employees or agents, unless it shall have been negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. The permissive rights of the Administrative Agent to do things enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty and, with respect to such
permissive rights, the Administrative Agent shall not be answerable for other than its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder. 

  
 82 













 Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents or
affiliates shall be responsible for nor have any duty to monitor the performance or any action of the Loan Parties, or any of their directors, members, officers, agents, affiliates or employee, nor shall it have any liability in connection with the
malfeasance or nonfeasance by such party. The Administrative Agent may assume performance by all such Persons of their respective obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have no enforcement or notification obligations relating to breaches of
representations or warranties of any other Person. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay
in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including without limitation, any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or
governmental authority; acts of God; earthquakes; fires; floods; wars; terrorism; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications
service; accidents; labor dispute s; acts of civil or military authority or governmental actions; or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility. 

SECTION 11.4 Reliance by the Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely up on, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request,
certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise
authenticated 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 have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In
determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Loan Parties), 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. 

(b) Reliance by the Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any
notices (including telephonic or electronic loan notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of any Loan Party even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other
form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Loan Parties shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them
from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of a Loan Party; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Person be available to the extent
that such losses, costs, expenses or liabilities are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Person. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 

SECTION 11.5 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers
hereunder or under any other Loan Document 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 of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The rights, benefits and privileges (including the exculpatory and
indemnification provisions) of Article X and this Article XI shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the 

  
 83 













 
Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of
the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the
extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by the Administrative Agent, (i) such
sub-agent shall be a third party beneficiary under this Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the
rights and benefits of a third party beneficiary, including an independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any
other Person, against any or all of the Loan Parties and the Lenders, (ii) any modification to such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be effective as against such sub-agent without its written consent thereto, and (iii) such sub-agent shall only have obligations to the Administrative Agent and not to any Loan Party, Lender or any
other Person and no Loan Party, Lender or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such subagent. 

SECTION 11.6 Resignation or Removal of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent at any
time by giving thirty (30) days advance notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and, thereafter, the retiring the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. Upon any such resignation, the Required
Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor the Administrative Agent. No less than thirty (30) days’ following the delivery of such written notice, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to
appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, with whom the Lenders shall be dealing on an arm’s length basis. Upon the acceptance of any
appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor the Administrative Agent, such successor the Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring the
Administrative Agent. After any retiring the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent or upon a removal of the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 11.6 shall continue in
effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent. If no successor has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days
following a retiring the Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation or removal, the retiring the Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Required Lenders shall perform all of
the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. 

SECTION 11.7 Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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 or any of their Related Parties 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 other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

SECTION 11.8 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, in solvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed
or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other
Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 10.4) allowed in such judicial
proceeding; and 

  
 84 













 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such
claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, receiver-manager, monitor, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar
official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to
pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under
Section 10.4. 
 In addition, the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, based upon the
written instruction of the Required Lenders, to (a) credit bid and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of
the Bankruptcy Code, including under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, including the Austrian IO, Canadian Insolvency Laws, and the French Code de commerce, or
(b) credit bid and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the
Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable Law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Lenders shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable
basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not unduly delay the ability of the Administrative Agent to credit bid and purchase at such sale or
other disposition of the Collateral and. if such claims cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of the Administrative Agent to credit bid, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the
asset or assets purchased by means of such credit bid) and the Lenders whose Obligations arc credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of
Obligations so credit bid) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Capital Securities of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). Except as provided above and otherwise expressly provided for herein or
in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent will not execute or deliver a release of any Lien on any Collateral. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s
authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to, and in accordance with, this Section. Each Secured Party whose Obligations are credit bid under this Section shall be entitled to receive interests in the
Collateral or any other asset acquired in connection with such credit bid (or in the Capital Securities of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such acquisition) on a ratable basis in accordance with the percentage
obtained by dividing (y) the amount of Obligations of such Secured Party that were credit bid in such credit bid by (z) the aggregate amount of all Obligations that were credit bid in such credit bid. 

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 

SECTION 11.9 Collateral and Guarantee Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its
discretion, 

  
 85 













 (a) to release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent
under any Loan Document (i) upon payment in full of all Obligations, (ii) that is sold or otherwise disposed of to a Person that is not a Loan Party as part of or in connection with any sale or other Disposition permitted hereunder and
under the other Loan Document or any Casualty Event, or (iii) as approved in accordance with Section 10.1; and 

(b) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction
permitted under the Loan Documents. 
 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing
the Administrative Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee, pursuant to this Section 11.9. 

The Secured Parties will not, by virtue of any security interest they have in Intellectual Property, disturb the rights of any third party
licensee of lntellectual Property under any license entered into after the Closing Date and permitted hereunder, so long as the licensee is not in breach of such license. Upon the Borrower’s request with respect to a particular licensee, the
Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent will negotiate, execute and deliver a non-disturbance agreement with the licensee, in form reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent,
the Borrower, and the licensee. 
 In the event that any Collateral shall be attached, garnished or levied upon by any court order, or the
delivery thereof shall be stayed or enjoined by an order of a court, or any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court order affecting the Collateral, the Administrative Agent is hereby expressly authorized, in its sole
discretion, to respond as it deems appropriate or to comply with all writs, orders or decrees so entered or issued, or which it is advised by legal counsel of its own choosing is binding upon it, whether with or without jurisdiction. In the event
that the Administrative Agent obeys or complies with any such writ, order or decree it shall not be liable to any of the Parties or to any other person, firm or corporation, should, by reason of such compliance notwithstanding, such writ, order or
decree be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated. 
 The Administrative Agent shall a e no obligation to give,
execute, deliver, file, record, authorize or obtain any financing statements, notices, instruments, documents, agreements, consents or other papers as shall be necessary to (i) create, preserve, perfect or validate any security interest granted
to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents or (ii) enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights under the Loan Documents with respect to any such pledge and security interest. The Administrative Agent shall
not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien
thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 

SECTION 11.10 Parallel Debt. 

(a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Administrative Agent amounts equal to any amounts owing by
the Borrower to any of the Secured Parties under any Loan Document as and when, and in the currency in which, those amounts are due (the “Parallel Debt”); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any
other provision hereof, the aggregate amount owed by the Borrower under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including in connection with the Parallel Debt or otherwise) shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the
Obligations. Following this, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents, each party agrees that the Administrative Agent shall be the joint and several creditor (Gesamtgläubiger) (together with each Secured
Party (other than the Administrative Agent)) of each and every of the Obligations of the Borrower towards each of the Secured Parties (other than the Administrative Agent) under any of the Loan Documents, and that accordingly the Administrative
Agent will have its own independent right to demand performance by the Borrower of the Obligations. 

  
 86 













 (b) The Borrower and the Administrative Agent acknowledge that the obligations of the
Borrower under paragraph (a) above are several and are separate and independent from the Obligations, and that the Collateral shall also serve, and shall at all times be deemed to be granted according to the Security Agreements, as collateral
security for the Parallel Debt; provided that: 
 (i) Parallel Debt shall be decreased to the extent that its Obligations have been
irrevocably paid or (in the case of any guarantees hereunder) discharged; 
 (ii) the Obligations of the Borrower shall be decreased to the
extent that its Parallel Debt has been irrevocably paid or discharged; and 
 (iii) the Parallel Debt of the Borrower shall not exceed its
Obligations. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall hold the claims against the Borrower under the Parallel Debt structure under this
Section 11.10 as agent for the Secured Parties in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any amounts received under the Parallel Debt claims among the Secured Parties in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement as if such amount was received under the Obligations. 
 SECTION 11.11 Appointment of
Administrative Agent as Hypothecary Representative (Quebec). Without limiting the powers of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, each Lender hereby appoints the Administrative Agent to act as hypothecary
representative (within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec) for each present and future Secured Party (in such capacity, the “Hypothecary Representative”) for the purposes of holding any hypothec granted
pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec by any Loan Party on any collateral to secure any Obligations. Each assignee of a Lender shall be deemed to have confirmed and ratified the appointment of Administrative Agent as the hypothecary
representative by execution of any document pursuant to which they become a party to this Agreement. The execution by Administrative Agent, as Hypothecary Representative, of any Deed of Hypothec prior to the date hereof is hereby ratified and
confirmed. The Administrative Agent, acting as Hypothecary Representative shall have the same rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and exclusions from liability as are prescribed in favor of the Administrative Agent in this Agreement, which shall
apply mutatis mutandis to the Administrative Agent acting as Hypothecary Representative. Each successor Administrative Agent shall automatically (and without any further action) become the successor Hypothecary Representative for the purposes
of each Deed of Hypothec executed in connection with this Agreement. Upon such replacement becoming effective, notices of replacement will be registered in each applicable register in which each hypothec created pursuant to any Deed of Hypothec is
registered (as contemplated by Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this provision shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.
