On September 9, 2025 (the "Third Amendment Effective Date"), SPX Enterprises, LLC ("SPXE"), a wholly owned subsidiary of SPX Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), as the U.S. borrower, entered into a Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Amendment to Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (the "Third Amendment") with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Administrative Agent"), the lenders party thereto, and certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, which amends the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as previously amended, the "Existing Credit Agreement"), dated as of August 12, 2022 (as amended by the Third Amendment, the "Amended Credit Agreement"), among the Company, as parent, SPXE, as the U.S. borrower, the foreign subsidiary borrowers party thereto, the lenders party thereto, Deutsche Bank AG, as foreign trade facility agent, and the Administrative Agent. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for committed senior secured financing in the aggregate amount of $2.025 billion, consisting of the following facilities (collectively, the "Senior Credit Facilities"), each with a final maturity of September 9, 2030:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A term loan facility in the aggregate principal
amount of $500 million;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A multicurrency revolving credit facility, which
will be available for loans and letters of credit in Dollars, Euro, Sterling and other currencies, in an aggregate principal amount up
to the equivalent of $1.5 billion (with sublimits equal to the equivalents of $200 million for financial letters of credit, $50 million
for non-financial letters of credit, and $250 million for non-U.S. exposure); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A bilateral foreign credit instrument facility,
which will be available for performance letters of credit and bank undertakings, in an aggregate principal amount in various currencies
up to the equivalent of $25 million.

SPXE also may seek additional commitments, without consent from the existing lenders, to add incremental term loan facilities and/or increase the commitments in respect of the revolving credit facility and/or the bilateral foreign credit instrument facility by up to an aggregate principal amount not to exceed (x) the greater of (i) $500 million and (ii) the amount of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) for the four fiscal quarters ended most recently before the date of determination, plus (y) an unlimited amount so long as, immediately after giving effect thereto, the Company's Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (defined in the Amended Credit Agreement generally as the ratio of consolidated total debt (excluding the face amount of undrawn letters of credit, bank undertakings, or analogous instruments and net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents) at the date of determination secured by liens to Consolidated EBITDA for the four fiscal quarters ended most recently before such date) does not exceed 3.00:1.00, plus (z) an amount equal to all voluntary prepayments of the term loan facility and voluntary prepayments accompanied by permanent commitment reductions of the revolving credit facility and foreign credit instrument facility.

SPXE is a borrower under each of the Senior Credit Facilities, and SPXE may designate certain foreign subsidiaries to be borrowers under the revolving credit facility and the foreign credit instrument facility. There are no foreign subsidiary borrowers as of the Third Amendment Effective Date. All borrowings and other extensions of credit under the Senior Credit Facilities are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including absence of defaults and accuracy in material respects of representations and warranties. The proceeds of the initial borrowings will be used to repay indebtedness outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement.

The interest rates applicable to loans in Dollars under the Senior Credit Facilities are, at SPXE's option, equal to either (x) an alternate base rate (the highest of (a) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A., and (c) the one-month Term SOFR rate plus 1.00%) or (y) the Term SOFR rate for the applicable interest period, plus, in each case, an applicable margin percentage, which varies based on the Company's Consolidated Leverage Ratio (defined in the Amended Credit Agreement generally as the ratio of consolidated total debt (excluding the face amount of undrawn letters of credit, bank undertakings or analogous instruments and net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents) at the date of determination to Consolidated EBITDA for the four fiscal quarters ended most recently before such date). The interest rates applicable to loans in other currencies under the Senior Credit Facilities are, at the applicable borrower's option, equal to either (x) an adjusted alternative currency daily rate or (y) an adjusted alternative currency term rate for the applicable interest period, plus, in each case, the applicable margin percentage. The borrowers may elect interest periods of one, three or six months (and, if consented to by all relevant lenders, any other period not greater than twelve months) for term rate borrowings, subject in each case to availability in the applicable currency. The applicable per annum fees and interest rate margins are as follows:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Consolidated Leverage Ratio** | **Revolving<br> Commitment<br> Fee** | **Financial<br> Letter of<br> Credit Fee** | **Foreign Credit<br> Instrument (FCI)<br> Commitment Fee** | **FCI Fee and<br> Non-Financial<br> Letter of<br> Credit Fee** | **Term SOFR<br> Loans/Alternative<br> Currency Loans** | **ABR <br> Loans** |
| Less than 0.75 to 1 | 0.200% | 1.250% | 0.200% | 0.750% | 1.250% | 0.250% |
| Greater than or equal to 0.75 to 1.0 but less than 2.00 to 1 | 0.225% | 1.375% | 0.225% | 0.800% | 1.375% | 0.375% |
| Greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1.0 but less than 3.00 to 1 | 0.250% | 1.500% | 0.250% | 0.875% | 1.500% | 0.500% |
| Greater than or equal to 3.00 to 1 | 0.275% | 1.750% | 0.275% | 1.000% | 1.750% | 0.750% |

---

The fees for bilateral foreign credit instruments are as specified above unless otherwise agreed with the bilateral foreign issuing lender. The applicable borrower will also pay fronting fees on the outstanding amounts of financial and non-financial letters of credit at the rates of 0.125% per annum and 0.25% per annum, respectively.

The Senior Credit Facilities require mandatory prepayments in amounts equal to the net proceeds from the sale or other disposition of (including from any casualty to, or governmental taking of) property in excess of specified values (other than in the ordinary course of business and subject to other exceptions) by the Company or its subsidiaries. Mandatory prepayments will be applied first to repay amounts outstanding under any term loans and then to amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility (without reducing the commitments thereunder). No prepayment is required generally to the extent the net proceeds are reinvested (or committed to be reinvested) in permitted acquisitions, permitted investments or assets to be used in the business of the Company and its subsidiaries within 365 days (and if committed to be reinvested, actually reinvested within 180 days after the end of such 365-day period) of the receipt of such proceeds.

The borrowers may voluntarily prepay loans under the Senior Credit Facilities, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. Any voluntary prepayment of loans will be subject to reimbursement of the lenders' breakage costs in the case of a prepayment of term rate borrowings other than on the last day of the relevant interest period.

The obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities (and certain specified hedging and treasury obligations) are guaranteed by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Each existing and subsequently acquired or organized
domestic material subsidiary of the Company, with specified exceptions; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Company with respect to the obligations of
foreign borrower subsidiaries under the revolving credit facility and the bilateral foreign credit instrument facility.

The obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities (and certain specified hedging and treasury obligations) are secured by a first priority pledge and security interest in 100% of the capital stock of domestic subsidiaries (with certain exceptions) held by the Company, SPXE or the domestic subsidiary guarantors and 65% of the voting capital stock (and 100% of the non-voting capital stock) of material first-tier foreign subsidiaries (with certain exceptions). If the Company obtains a corporate credit rating from Moody's and S&P and such corporate credit rating is less than "Ba2" (or not rated) by Moody's and less than "BB" (or not rated) by S&P, then the Company, SPXE and the domestic subsidiary guarantors are required to grant security interests, mortgages and other liens on substantially all of their assets. If the Company's corporate credit rating is "Baa3" or better by Moody's or "BBB-" or better by S&P and no defaults would exist, then all collateral security will be released and the indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities will be unsecured.

The Amended Credit Agreement requires that the Company maintain:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (defined
in the Amended Credit Agreement generally as the ratio of Consolidated EBITDA for the four fiscal quarters then ended to consolidated
cash interest expense for such period) as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of at least 3.00 to 1.00; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the last
day of any fiscal quarter of not more than 3.75 to 1.00 (or 4.25 to 1.00 for the four fiscal quarters after certain permitted acquisitions).

The Amended Credit Agreement also contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, loans or guarantees, make restricted junior payments, including dividends, redemptions of capital stock, and voluntary prepayments or repurchase of subordinated indebtedness, engage in mergers, acquisitions or sales of assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, or engage in certain transactions with affiliates. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default.

The foregoing description of the Third Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The U.S. Borrower shall have (or caused to be): (i) paid all accrued and unpaid interest and fees outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement to the Third Amendment Effective Date; (ii) prepaid any revolving loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Loans on the Third Amendment Effective Date ratable with the revised Revolving Commitments established pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) paid in full, to each Exiting Lender, the principal, interest and other amounts owing to such Exiting Lender (including in its capacity as an Issuing Lender and/or an FCI Issuing Lender, as applicable), or accrued for its account, under the Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (iv) made arrangements with the issuers of any outstanding letters of credit and foreign credit instruments under the Existing Credit Agreement for cash collateral, counter-guarantees or other credit support acceptable to the respective issuer or lender, to the extent such letters of credit and foreign credit instruments do not constitute Existing Letters of Credit or Existing FCIs, as applicable, and repaid all reimbursement obligations thereunder in respect of any drawings made on or before the Third Amendment Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Agents and the Lenders (including the New Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, the FCI Issuing Lenders and the Swingline Lender) shall have completed "know your customer" due diligence, and the Parent and its Subsidiaries shall have provided to each Agent and each Lender (including each New Lender, each Issuing Lender, each FCI Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender) the documentation and other information requested by such Agent or such Lender in order to comply with applicable law, including the PATRIOT Act, Sanctions, the FCPA, the UK Bribery Act 2010, and the applicable European Union or German acts and ordinance such as the German Anti-Money-Laundering-Act ("*Geldwäschegesetz*") and the German Foreign Trade Ordinance ("*AuBenwirtschaftsverornung*"). If the U.S. Borrower qualifies as a "legal entity customer" under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, each Agent and each Lender shall have received, to the extent requested by such Agent or such Lender, a Beneficial Ownership Certification in relation to the U.S. Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) The Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or BofA Securities, as applicable, shall have received all fees and other amounts due and payable on or prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date to any of the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, BofA Securities and/or any Lender (including any New Lender and any FCI Issuing Lender), including, to the extent invoiced, reimbursement or payment of all out of pocket expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) required to be reimbursed or paid by any Loan Party.

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this <u>Section 2</u>, each Lender (including each New Lender) that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the date of this Agreement specifying its objection thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Effect of this Agreement; Reallocation and Restatement of Loans and Commitments; New Lenders</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The parties hereto agree that, on the Third Amendment Effective Date, and automatically without further action by any party hereto, all obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement, the Existing Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Loan Documents outstanding on the Third Amendment Effective Date shall in all respects be continuing and shall be deemed to be Obligations outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Amended Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except as expressly modified and amended in this Agreement, all of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect. The Loan Documents and any and all other documents heretofore, now or hereafter executed and delivered pursuant to the terms of the Existing Credit Agreement, the Existing Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Loan Document are hereby amended so that, on and after the Third Amendment Effective Date, any reference to (i) the Existing Credit Agreement shall mean a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement, and (ii) the Existing Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall mean a reference to the Amended Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement is not a novation of the Existing Credit Agreement. The Amended Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is not a novation of the Existing Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) On the Third Amendment Effective Date, the Revolving Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date, and the Revolving Commitments existing under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date, in each case, shall be reallocated and restated among the Revolving Lenders party to the Amended Credit Agreement so that, after giving effect to this Agreement, the Revolving Lenders party to the Amended Credit Agreement have Revolving Commitments and Applicable Percentages with respect to the aggregate Revolving Commitments, in each case, as set forth on <u>Schedule 1.1A</u> attached hereto (and, after giving effect to this Agreement, as of the Third Amendment Effective Date, each such Revolving Lender shall hold outstanding Revolving Loans in an amount equal to its Applicable Revolving Percentage of the outstanding amount of Revolving Loans outstanding as of the Third Amendment Effective Date). The parties hereto agree that the U.S. Borrower, any Revolving Lender party to the Amended Credit Agreement and the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to effect such assignments, prepayments, borrowings, reallocations and restatements as are necessary (including pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the U.S. Borrower, such Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agent) to effectuate the provisions of this <u>Section 3(c)</u>. Each Revolving Lender party to the Amended Credit Agreement hereby waives any amounts payable to such Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 2.18 of the Existing Credit Agreement incurred as a result of the transactions contemplated by this <u>Section 3(c)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) By execution of this Agreement, each of the Persons identified on the signature pages to this Agreement as Lenders that are not Lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date (each such Person, a "<u>New Lender</u>" and collectively, the "<u>New Lenders</u>") hereby acknowledges, agrees and confirms that, by its execution of this Agreement, such New Lender shall be deemed to be a party to the Amended Credit Agreement as of the Third Amendment Effective Date and a "Lender" for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement and shall have all of the obligations of a Lender thereunder. Each New Lender hereby ratifies, as of the Third Amendment Effective Date, and agrees to be bound by, all of the terms, provisions and conditions applicable to Lenders contained in the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each New Lender (i) represents and warrants that (A) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to become a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (B) it satisfies the requirements of an Eligible Assignee, (C) from and after the Third Amendment Effective Date, it shall be bound by the provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as a Lender thereunder and shall have the obligations of a Lender thereunder, (D) it is sophisticated with respect to its decision to enter into this Agreement and to become a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to enter into this Agreement and to become a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement, is experienced in transactions of this type, (E) it has received a copy of the Amended Credit Agreement, and has received or has been accorded the opportunity to receive copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 5.1(a) and (b) of the Existing Credit Agreement and such other documents and information as it deems appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and to become a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement, (F) it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any Lender (including any Issuing Lender or any FCI Issuing Lender) or any other Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and become a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement, and (G) it has delivered any documentation required to be delivered by it pursuant to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, duly completed and executed by it, and (ii) agrees that (A) it will, independently and without reliance on any Agent, any Lender (including any Issuing Lender or any FCI Issuing Lender) or any other Person, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents, and (B) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender. The address of each New Lender for purposes of Section 9.1 of the Amended Credit Agreement is as set forth in such New Lender's Administrative Questionnaire delivered by such New Lender to the Administrative Agent on or before the Third Amendment Effective Date, or such other address as shall be designated by such New Lender in accordance with Section 9.1 of the Amended Credit Agreement. Each of the Loan Parties agrees that, as of the Third Amendment Effective Date, each New Lender shall (x) be a party to the Amended Credit Agreement, (y) be a "Lender" for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (z) have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Miscellaneous</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Amended Credit Agreement, the Amended Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the obligations of the parties thereunder and under the other Loan Documents, are hereby ratified and confirmed by each party hereto and shall remain in full force and effect according to their terms. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or any Agent under any of the Loan Documents, or, except as expressly provided herein, constitute a waiver or amendment of any provision of any of the Loan Documents. This Agreement shall constitute a Loan Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Guarantor (i) acknowledges and consents to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (ii) affirms all of its obligations under each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, (iii) agrees that this Agreement and all documents executed in connection herewith do not operate to reduce or discharge its obligations under the Loan Documents, (iv) agrees that the Security Documents to which it is a party continue to be in full force and effect and are not impaired or adversely affected by this Agreement in any manner whatsoever, and (v) confirms its grant of security interests pursuant to the Security Documents to which it is a party as Collateral for the Obligations, and acknowledges that all Liens granted (or purported to be granted) pursuant to the Security Documents remain and continue in full force and effect in respect of, and to secure, the Obligations. With regard to § 3 Abs. 1 S. 1 Nr. 2, Abs. 4 German AML Act, each Guarantor confirms that any security or other credit support it is providing under any of the Loan Documents is provided for the benefit of the applicable Borrower(s).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants as follows: (i) such Loan Party has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement; (ii) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and constitutes such Loan Party's legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors' rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law; and (iii) no material consent or approval of, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by such Loan Party of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Lender (including each New Lender) that is an Issuing Lender and/or an FCI Issuing Lender, as applicable, agrees that by executing this Agreement in its capacity as a Lender, it is also intending to execute this Agreement in its capacities as an Issuing Lender and/or an FCI Issuing Lender, as applicable, and no separate signature by such Lender in its capacities as an Issuing Lender and/or an FCI Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall be necessary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If permitted pursuant to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, this Agreement may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures (including facsimile and .pdf) and shall be considered an original, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. This Agreement may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The terms of Section 9.9 of the Amended Credit Agreement with respect to submission to jurisdiction and waiver of venue, and the terms of Section 9.12 of the Amended Credit Agreement with respect to the waiver of jury trial are, in each case, incorporated herein by reference, *mutatis mutandis*, and the parties hereto agree to such terms.

**<u>Section 1.5</u>** <u>Exchange Rates; Interest Rates; Licensing.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall determine the Exchange Rates as of each Calculation Date to be used for calculating Dollar Equivalent amounts of credit extensions and outstanding amounts denominated in Alternative Currencies. Such Exchange Rates shall become effective as of such Calculation Date and shall be the Exchanges Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Calculation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by Loan Parties hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any currency (other than for the purpose of converting into Dollars, under <u>Sections 2.5(d)</u>, <u>(e)</u>, <u>(h)</u>, <u>(j)</u> and <u>(k)</u> and <u>2.14(b)</u>, the obligations of the Borrowers and the Revolving Lenders in respect of Financial LC Disbursements and Non-Financial LC Disbursements that have not been reimbursed when due) for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Lender, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Not later than 5:00 p.m. on each Calculation Date, the Administrative Agent shall (i) determine the Revolving Exposure, the Alternative Currency Financial LC Exposure or the Alternative Currency Non-Financial LC Exposure, as the case may be, on such date (after giving effect to any Alternative Currency Loans to be made or any Alternative Currency Letters of Credit to be issued, renewed, extended or terminated in connection with such determination) and (ii) notify the U.S. Borrower and, if applicable, each Issuing Lender of the results of such determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a Borrowing, conversion, continuation or prepayment of an Alternative Currency Loan or the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such Borrowing, Loan or Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency, such amount shall be the relevant Alternative Currency Equivalent of such Dollar amount (rounded to the nearest unit of such Alternative Currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward), as determined by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Neither Agent warrants, nor accepts responsibility for, nor shall any Agent have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to any reference rate referred to herein or with respect to any rate (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the selection of such rate and any related spread or other adjustment) that is an alternative or replacement for or successor to any such rate (including any Term SOFR Successor Rate or any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing) or the effect of any of the foregoing, or of any Term SOFR Conforming Changes or any Conforming Changes. Each Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions or other activities that affect any reference rate referred to herein, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Term SOFR Successor Rate or any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing) or any related spread or other adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Loan Parties. Each Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any reference rate referred to herein or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Term SOFR Successor Rate or any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing), in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to any Loan Party, any Lender or any other Person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or other action or omission related to or affecting the selection, determination, or calculation of any rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) By agreeing to make Loans under this Agreement, each Lender is confirming it has all licenses, permits and approvals necessary for use of the reference rates referred to herein and it will do all things necessary to comply, preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect such licenses, permits and approvals.

**<u>Section 1.6</u>** <u>Currency Conversion.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If more than one currency or currency unit are at the same time recognized by the central bank of any country as the lawful currency of that country, then (i) any reference in the Loan Documents to, and any obligations arising under the Loan Documents in, the currency of that country shall be translated into or paid in the currency or currency unit of that country designated by the Administrative Agent and (ii) any translation from one currency or currency unit to another shall be at the official rate of exchange recognized by the central bank for conversion of that currency or currency unit into the other, rounded up or down by the Administrative Agent or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, as applicable, as it deems appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If a change in any currency of a country occurs, this Agreement shall be amended (and each party hereto agrees to enter into any supplemental agreement necessary to effect any such amendment) to the extent that the Administrative Agent specifies to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in currency had occurred.

**<u>Section 1.7</u>** <u>Times of Day.</u>

Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be references to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable).

**<u>Section 1.8</u>** <u>Face Amount.</u>

Unless otherwise specified herein, the Face Amount of a Letter of Credit or FCI at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit or FCI in effect at such time; <u>provided</u> that with respect to any Letter of Credit or FCI that, by its terms or the terms of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by a Borrower to, or entered into by a Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Lender or FCI Issuing Lender, as applicable, relating to such Letter of Credit or FCI, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit or FCI shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit or FCI after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

**<u>Section 1.9</u>** <u>Additional Alternative Currencies.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The U.S. Borrower may from time to time request that Revolving Loans be made, or Financial Letters of Credit be issued, in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of "Alternative Currency"; <u>provided</u> that (i) such requested currency is a lawful currency (other than Dollars) that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Dollars, (ii) in the case of any such request with respect to Revolving Loans, such request shall be subject to the approval of (A) subject to <u>Section 2.21(b)</u>, each Revolving Lender and (B) the Administrative Agent and (iii) in the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Financial Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of Bank of America, in its capacity as an Issuing Lender of Financial Letters of Credit, and the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the case of any such request referenced in <u>Section 1.9(a)</u> pertaining to Revolving Loans, any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the desired credit extensions (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent). Upon receipt of such request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender. Each Revolving Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., five (5) Business Days after receipt of such request, whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Revolving Loans in such requested currency. Any failure by a Revolving Lender to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Revolving Lender to permit Revolving Loans to be made in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and all the Revolving Lenders consent to making Revolving Loans in such requested currency and the Administrative Agent and such Revolving Lenders reasonably determine that an appropriate interest rate is available to be used for such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the U.S. Borrower and (i) the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders may amend this Agreement to the extent necessary to add the applicable rate for such currency and any applicable adjustment for such rate, as applicable, and (ii) to the extent this Agreement has been amended to reflect the appropriate rate (and applicable adjustment, if any) for such currency, such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency for purposes of any Borrowings of Revolving Loans. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this <u>Section 1.9(b)</u>, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the U.S. Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In the case of any such request referenced in <u>Section 1.9(a)</u> pertaining to Financial Letters of Credit, any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent and Bank of America, in its capacity as an Issuing Lender of Financial Letters of Credit, not later than 11:00 a.m., ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the desired credit extensions (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and Bank of America, in its capacity as an Issuing Lender of Financial Letters of Credit). The Administrative Agent and Bank of America, in its capacity as an Issuing Lender of Financial Letters of Credit, shall notify the U.S. Borrower not later than 11:00 a.m., five (5) Business Days after receipt of such request, whether each such Person consents, in its sole discretion, to the issuance of Financial Letters of Credit in such requested currency. Any failure by the Administrative Agent or Bank of America, in its capacity as an Issuing Lender of Financial Letters of Credit, to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by the Administrative Agent or Bank of America, in its capacity as an Issuing Lender of Financial Letters of Credit, as the case may be, to permit Financial Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and Bank of America, in its capacity as an Issuing Lender of Financial Letters of Credit, each consent to issuance of Financial Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the U.S. Borrower and, thereafter, such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency for purposes of the issuance of Financial Letters of Credit.

**<u>Section 1.10</u>** <u>Term SOFR Successor Rates; Successor Rates.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the U.S. Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the U.S. Borrower) that the U.S. Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that: (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining one month, three month, and six month interest periods of Term SOFR, including because the Term SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or (ii) CME or any successor administrator of the Term SOFR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent or such administrator with respect to its publication of Term SOFR, in each case acting in such capacity, has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which one month, three month, and six month interest periods of Term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate shall no longer be representative or made available, or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of syndicated loans, or shall or will otherwise cease; <u>provided</u> that at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that will continue to provide such representative interest periods of Term SOFR after such specific date (the latest date on which one month, three month, and six month interest periods of Term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate are no longer representative or available permanently or indefinitely, the "<u>Term SOFR Scheduled Unavailability Date</u>"); then, on a date and time determined by the Administrative Agent (any such date, a "<u>Term SOFR Replacement Date</u>"), which date shall be at the end of an Interest Period or on the relevant Interest Payment Date, as applicable, for interest calculated and, solely with respect to clause (ii) above, no later than the Term SOFR Scheduled Unavailability Date, Term SOFR will be replaced hereunder and under any other Loan Document with Daily Simple SOFR, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (any such successor rate established pursuant to this <u>Section 1.10(a)</u>, a "<u>Term SOFR Successor Rate</u>"). If the Term SOFR Successor Rate is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (A) if the Administrative Agent determines that Daily Simple SOFR is not available on or prior to the Term SOFR Replacement Date, or (B) if the events or circumstances of the type described in clause (i) above or clause (ii) above have occurred with respect to the Term SOFR Successor Rate then in effect, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing Term SOFR or any then-current Term SOFR Successor Rate in accordance with this <u>Section 1.10(a)</u> at the end of any Interest Period, relevant Interest Payment Date or payment period for interest calculated, as applicable, with an alternative benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then-existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States for such alternative benchmark and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then-existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States for such benchmark. For the avoidance of doubt, any such proposed rate and adjustments shall constitute a "Term SOFR Successor Rate". Any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the U.S. Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.

The Administrative Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the U.S. Borrower and each Lender of the implementation of any Term SOFR Successor Rate. Any Term SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; <u>provided</u> that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Term SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything else herein, if at any time any Term SOFR Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than zero, such Term SOFR Successor Rate will be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

In connection with the implementation of a Term SOFR Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Term SOFR Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Term SOFR Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Term SOFR Conforming Changes to the U.S. Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

For purposes of this <u>Section 1.10(a)</u>, those Lenders that either have not made, or do not have an obligation under this Agreement to make, Term SOFR Loans (or Loans accruing interest by reference to a Term SOFR Successor Rate, as applicable) shall be excluded from any determination of Required Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the U.S. Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the U.S. Borrower) that the U.S. Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that: (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency because none of the tenors of such Relevant Rate (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) is available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or (ii) the Applicable Authority has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) shall or will no longer be representative or made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans denominated in such Alternative Currency, or shall or will otherwise cease; <u>provided</u> that in each case, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that will continue to provide such representative tenor(s) of the Relevant Rate for such Alternative Currency (the latest date on which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for such Alternative Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) are no longer representative or available permanently or indefinitely, the "<u>Scheduled Unavailability Date</u>" for such Relevant Rate); or (iii) syndicated loans currently being executed and agented in the United States are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency; or if the events or circumstances of the type described in clause (i) above, clause (ii) above or clause (iii) above have occurred with respect to a Successor Rate then in effect, then the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency or any then-current Successor Rate for an Alternative Currency in accordance with this <u>Section 1.10(b)</u> with an alternative benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then-existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States and denominated in such Alternative Currency for such alternative benchmarks, and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then-existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States and denominated in such Alternative Currency for such benchmarks (and any such proposed rate, including for the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment thereto, a "<u>Successor Rate</u>"), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the U.S. Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.

The Administrative Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the U.S. Borrower and each Lender of the implementation of any Successor Rate. Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; <u>provided</u> that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything else herein, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than zero, the Successor Rate will be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

In connection with the implementation of a Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the U.S. Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

For purposes of this <u>Section 1.10(b)</u>, those Lenders that either have not made, or do not have an obligation under this Agreement to make, Loans denominated in the applicable Alternative Currency shall be excluded from any determination of Required Lenders for purposes of the establishment of a Successor Rate with respect to Alternative Currency.

**<u>Section 1.11</u>** <u>Permitted Reorganization.</u>

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) notwithstanding anything set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, the Permitted Reorganization is expressly permitted hereunder, solely to the extent the Permitted Reorganization is consummated on or prior to September 30, 2022, and (b) nothing set forth herein or in any other Loan Document shall limit the ability of SPX Corporation and its applicable Subsidiaries to consummate the Permitted Reorganization and the transactions contemplated thereby, solely to the extent the Permitted Reorganization is consummated on or prior to September 30, 2022. The U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to amend this Agreement and the other the Loan Documents (and the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such amendments, including any amendments that are retroactively effective to the date of consummation of the Permitted Reorganization) solely for the purposes of making changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to reflect the consummation of the Permitted Reorganization (including, for the avoidance of doubt, to make any changes as may be necessary and appropriate, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, to reflect the consummation of the Permitted Reorganization), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders unless, prior to such time, the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Lenders do not accept such amendment.

This Agreement constitutes an amendment to the Existing Credit Agreement made under and in accordance with the terms of Section 9.2 of the Existing Credit Agreement.

**Article II**

<u>THE CREDITS</u>

**<u>Section 2.1</u>** <u>Commitments; Incremental Facilities.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Revolving Lender agrees to severally make Revolving Loans in Dollars or Alternative Currencies (as specified in the Borrowing Requests with respect thereto) to any Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Lender's Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender's Revolving Commitment; <u>provided</u> that, after giving effect to any Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the aggregate outstanding amount of all Alternative Currency Loans, <u>plus</u> the aggregate outstanding amount of all Revolving Loans made to Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, shall not exceed the Global Sublimit. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The U.S. Borrower and any one or more Lenders may from time to time agree that such Lenders (or any other additional bank, financial institution or other entity which becomes a Lender pursuant to this <u>Section 2.1(b)</u>) shall add one or more term loan facilities (the loans thereunder, the "<u>Incremental Term Loans</u>") and/or increase the Commitments in respect of any of the Facilities by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent, an Incremental Facility Activation Notice specifying (i) the amount of such Incremental Term Loans and/or Commitment increase, and (ii) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, (A) the applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, (B) the amortization schedule for such Incremental Term Loans, which shall comply with <u>Section 2.11(a)</u>, (C) the Applicable Rate (and/or other pricing terms) for such Incremental Term Loans and (D) the requested currency (which may be in Dollars or any Alternative Currency); <u>provided</u> that: (1) the aggregate principal amount of borrowings of Incremental Term Loans outstanding at any time and Commitment increases pursuant to this <u>Section 2.1(b)</u> in effect at any time, <u>plus</u> the aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Equivalent Indebtedness outstanding at any time shall not exceed, as of any date of determination, the Incremental Amount; (2) no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence or would be caused by the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans and/or establishment of such increase in the Commitments; and (3) after giving effect to incurrence of any Incremental Term Loans and/or establishment of any increase in the Commitments on a <u>pro forma</u> basis (and assuming for such purposes that such Incremental Term Loans are fully drawn and/or such Commitment increase is fully drawn), the Parent would be in compliance with the financial covenants contained in <u>Section 6.1</u> as of the last day of the fiscal quarter of the Parent most recently ended for which the Parent has delivered financial statements pursuant to <u>Section 5.1(a)</u> or <u>Section 5.1(b)</u>. In the case of any increase in the Commitments under any Facility (other than any Incremental Term Loan Facility), the terms applicable to such increased Commitments and the Loans thereunder shall be the same as the terms applicable to the Facility being so increased. In the case of any increase of the Revolving Facility, any new Lender added in connection with such increase must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders (but not the Revolving Lenders). In the case of any increase of the Foreign Trade Facility, any new Lender added in connection with such increase must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the FCI Issuing Lenders. No Lender shall have any obligation to participate in any Incremental Term Loan or other increase described in this paragraph unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion. Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which, with the consent of the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and, if applicable, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), elects to become a "Lender" under this Agreement in connection with the making of any Incremental Term Loan or the making of any additional Commitment shall execute a New Lender Supplement, whereupon such bank, financial institution or other entity shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the proceeds of any Incremental Term Loan are being used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, and the U.S. Borrower has obtained binding commitments of Incremental Term Lenders to fund such Incremental Term Loan ("<u>Acquisition Financing Commitments</u>"), then the conditions to the funding and incurrence of such Incremental Term Loan shall be limited as follows, if and to the extent such Incremental Term Lenders so agree with respect to their Acquisition Financing Commitments: (a) the condition set forth in <u>Section 4.2(a)</u> shall apply only with respect to customary "specified representations" approved by the Incremental Term Lenders providing the Acquisition Financing Commitments or if the circumstances giving rise to the failure of such conditions also entitle the Parent or the applicable Restricted Subsidiaries to terminate its or their obligations under the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition (each, an "<u>Acquisition Agreement</u>"), and (b) the reference in <u>Section 4.2(b)</u> to no Default or Event of Default shall mean the absence of a Default or Event of Default at the date such Acquisition Agreement is executed and delivered and the absence of an Event of Default under paragraphs (a), (b), (h), (i) or (j) of <u>Article VII</u> at the date the applicable Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated (it being understood that this sentence shall not limit the conditions set forth in <u>Section 4.2</u> with respect to any proposed Borrowing or the issuance of any Letter of Credit or FCI in connection with such Permitted Acquisition or otherwise). Additionally, in connection with the incurrence of any Incremental Term Loan or any Incremental Equivalent Indebtedness used to finance all or any part of a Limited Condition Acquisition, the date for purposes of determining compliance with (i) clause (2) in the first proviso of the preceding paragraph, (ii) clause (B) in the proviso to <u>Section 6.2(t)(i)</u>, (iii) compliance with the Ratio Incremental Amount, and (iv) clause (C) in the proviso to <u>Section 6.2(t)(i)</u>, in each case, shall, at the U.S. Borrower's option, be the date on which the Acquisition Agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is executed and delivered; <u>provided</u> that: (A) with respect to the conditions set forth in clause (2) in the first proviso of the preceding paragraph and clause (B) in the proviso to <u>Section 6.2(t)(i)</u>, such conditions shall only be satisfied if there is also no Event of Default under paragraphs (a), (b), (h), (i) or (j) of <u>Article VII</u> at the date the applicable Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated; and (B) during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of such Acquisition Agreement and ending on the earlier to occur of (1) the date of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, and (2) the date of abandonment by the Parent or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary of such Limited Condition Acquisition, each calculation on a <u>pro</u> <u>forma</u> basis required hereunder shall demonstrate two calculations of each of the relevant covenants set forth in <u>Section 6.1</u>, the first assuming that such Limited Condition Acquisition (and all transactions in connection therewith, including the incurrence of any Incremental Term Loan, any Commitment increase or any Incremental Equivalent Indebtedness) has been consummated and the second assuming that such transaction has been abandoned, and, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any particular transaction for which pro forma compliance is required, each such calculation must demonstrate compliance on a <u>pro</u> <u>forma</u> basis in order for such transaction to be permitted. Nothing in the foregoing constitutes a waiver of any Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or of any rights or remedies of Lenders and the Administrative Agent under any provision of the Loan Documents.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended to incorporate additional terms (including customary "MFN" protections, soft call protection, and excess cash flow mandatory prepayments, in each case, that may be applicable with respect to any proposed Incremental Term Loans (<u>provided</u> that to the extent an excess cash flow mandatory prepayment is required in connection with the establishment of any Incremental Term Loans, such excess cash flow mandatory prepayment shall be applied ratably to all Term Loans and to the principal repayment installments thereof on a pro rata basis)) or conditions (including any additional conditions to the release of Collateral set forth in <u>Section 9.13(a)</u>) to the extent such terms or conditions are required by the Lenders providing any Incremental Term Loans, with any such amendment requiring only the approval of the Loan Parties, the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans, and the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Extension Option for Revolving Commitments</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The U.S. Borrower may from time to time during the term of this Agreement, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (any such notice being a "<u>Revolving Extension Notice</u>"), request that each Revolving Lender extend (any such extension, a "<u>Revolving Commitment Extension</u>") the then-existing Revolving Maturity Date applicable to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment to the extended maturity date specified in such Revolving Extension Notice (any such extended maturity date, the "<u>Extended Revolving Maturity Date</u>"). Each Revolving Extension Notice delivered in connection with any requested Revolving Commitment Extension shall set forth the date on which such Revolving Commitment Extension is requested to become effective (such date, the "<u>Revolving Extension Date</u>"), which date shall be not less than 30 Business Days nor more than 60 Business Days after the date of the Revolving Extension Notice for such Revolving Commitment Extension. The Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit any Revolving Extension Notice to each Revolving Lender. Each Revolving Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent whether it wishes to extend the then-existing Revolving Maturity Date applicable to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment to the Extended Revolving Maturity Date specified in the applicable Revolving Extension Notice for such Revolving Commitment Extension, such notice to be provided by each Revolving Lender no later than 15 Business Days prior to the Revolving Extension Date for such Revolving Commitment Extension (such date, the "<u>Revolving Lender Extension Response Date</u>"). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the U.S. Borrower of the identity of each Revolving Lender that has agreed to extend the then-existing Revolving Maturity Date applicable to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment to the Extended Revolving Maturity Date specified in the applicable Revolving Extension Notice for such Revolving Commitment Extension, and the amount of such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment. Any Revolving Lender which does not expressly notify the Administrative Agent on or before the Revolving Lender Extension Response Date for such Revolving Commitment Extension that it wishes to so extend the then-existing Revolving Maturity Date applicable to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment shall be deemed to have rejected the U.S. Borrower's request for such Revolving Commitment Extension. Effective as of the Revolving Extension Date for such Revolving Commitment Extension, with respect to each Revolving Lender that has agreed to extend the then-existing Revolving Maturity Date applicable to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment to the Extended Revolving Maturity Date specified in the Revolving Extension Notice for such Revolving Commitment Extension, the then-existing Revolving Maturity Date applicable to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment shall be automatically and immediately so extended to the Extended Revolving Maturity Date specified in the Revolving Extension Notice for such Revolving Commitment Extension so long as, as of the Revolving Extension Date for such Revolving Commitment Extension, no Default or Event of Default exists or would result after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Extension. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to issue Letters of Credit beyond the Revolving Maturity Date in effect as of the Third Amendment Effective Date, unless such Issuing Lender agrees in writing to issue Letters of Credit until any Extended Revolving Maturity Date established after the Third Amendment Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the then-existing Revolving Maturity Date applicable to any Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment shall have been extended in accordance with <u>Section 2.1(c)(i)</u>, all references herein to the "Revolving Maturity Date" applicable to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment shall be a reference to the then-applicable Extended Revolving Maturity Date applicable to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (but subject to the last sentence of <u>Section 2.1(c)(i)</u>), in connection with any Revolving Commitment Extension, the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent may enter into an amendment to this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into, and the Lenders agree that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended by, any such amendment) to the extent the Administrative Agent deems necessary in order to (A) reflect the existence and terms of such Revolving Commitment Extension, (B) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of such Revolving Commitment Extension, and (C) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this <u>Section 2.1(c)</u>. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of any such amendment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The U.S. Borrower shall have the right, following any Revolving Lender Extension Response Date for any Revolving Commitment Extension, but prior to the Revolving Extension Date applicable to such Revolving Commitment Extension, to replace each Revolving Lender declining to participate in such Revolving Commitment Extension with one or more Persons (A) reasonably satisfactory to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and (B) satisfactory to the Issuing Lenders in their sole discretion (each such Person, an "<u>Additional Revolving Commitment Lender</u>"), as provided in <u>Section 2.21(b)</u>. Each Additional Revolving Commitment Lender shall have entered into an Assignment and Assumption or such other documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent pursuant to which such Additional Revolving Commitment Lender shall, effective as of the Revolving Extension Date applicable to such Revolving Commitment Extension, undertake a Revolving Commitment (and if any such Additional Revolving Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its new Revolving Commitment shall be in addition to any other Commitment of such Lender on such date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>[Reserved]</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Term Loan A</u>. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Term Loan A Lender shall make its portion of a term loan (the "<u>Term Loan A</u>") to the U.S. Borrower in Dollars on the Third Amendment Effective Date in an amount equal to such Term Loan A Lender's Term Loan A Commitment. Each Term Loan A Lender shall, at the option of the Administrative Agent, make its portion of the Term Loan A to the U.S. Borrower by (i) continuing all or any of its portion of such Term Loan A Lender's portion of any term loan outstanding under this Agreement immediately prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date, and/or (ii) advancing additional amounts constituting all or any portion of such Term Loan A Lender's portion of the Term Loan A on the Third Amendment Effective Date. Amounts repaid on the Term Loan A may not be reborrowed. The Term Loan A may consist of ABR Loans or Term SOFR Loans or a combination thereof, as further provided herein.

**<u>Section 2.2</u>** <u>Loans and Borrowings.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to <u>Sections 1.10</u> and <u>2.16</u>, (i) each Borrowing of Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars, the Term Loan A and each Incremental Term Loan denominated in Dollars shall consist entirely of ABR Loans or Term SOFR Loans as the applicable Borrower may request in accordance herewith, (ii) each Borrowing of Revolving Loans denominated in Alterative Currencies shall consist entirely of Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, as the applicable Borrower may request in accordance herewith, and (iii) each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan to any Borrower by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; <u>provided</u> that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans or any Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000. At the time that each Borrowing of Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loans is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000; <u>provided</u> that a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the aggregate Revolving Commitments, or that is required to finance the reimbursement of a Financial LC Disbursement as contemplated by <u>Section 2.5(e)(i)</u>, or that is required to finance the reimbursement of a Non-Financial LC Disbursement as contemplated by <u>Section 2.5(e)(ii)</u>. Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $500,000. No more than 10 Borrowings may be outstanding at any one time under each Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Revolving Maturity Date, the Term Loan A Maturity Date or the applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or the portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Lender.

**<u>Section 2.3</u>** <u>Requests for Borrowings.</u>

To request a Borrowing (other than (x) a continuation or conversion, which is governed by <u>Section 2.8</u>, or (y) a Borrowing of a Swingline Loan, which is governed by <u>Section 2.4(b)</u>) of Revolving Loans or Incremental Term Loans, the relevant Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans, not later than 11:00 a.m. two Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (b) in the case of a Borrowing of Alternative Currency Loans, not later than 11:00 a.m. time four Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (c) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing; <u>provided</u> that (i) any such notice of a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans to finance the reimbursement of a Financial LC Disbursement as contemplated by <u>Section 2.5(e)(i)</u> or a Non-Financial LC Disbursement as contemplated by <u>Section 2.5(e)(ii)</u> may be given not later than 10:00 a.m. on the date of the proposed Borrowing, and (ii) if the applicable Borrower wishes to request Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of "Interest Period," (A) the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (1) four Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans, or (2) five Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, (B) the Administrative Agent shall give prompt written notice to the appropriate Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them, and (C) not later than 11:00 a.m. (1) three Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans, or (2) four Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the applicable Lenders. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and (A) signed by the U.S. Borrower or (B) in the case of Borrowings by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, signed by the U.S. Borrower or such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as specified by the U.S. Borrower by prior written notice to the Administrative Agent. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with <u>Section 2.2</u>: (1) the applicable Borrower requesting such Borrowing (and be signed on behalf of such Borrower); (2) the Class and Type of the requested Borrowing; (3) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing; (4) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; (5) in the case of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto; (6) the location and number of the relevant Borrower's account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of <u>Section 2.7</u>; and (7) the currency of such Borrowing (which shall be in Dollars or an Alternative Currency, as applicable). If no election as to the currency of a Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing if denominated in Dollars or a Borrowing of Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, as applicable, if denominated in an Alternative Currency. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, then the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each relevant Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender's Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

**<u>Section 2.4</u>** <u>Swingline Loans.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the U.S. Borrower in Dollars from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $40,000,000 (or, if less, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments at such time) or (ii) the sum of the total Revolving Exposures exceeding the aggregate Revolving Commitments; <u>provided</u> that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the U.S. Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To request a Swingline Loan, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the U.S. Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed in writing in a form approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the U.S. Borrower), not later than 12:00 noon on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the U.S. Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the U.S. Borrower by wiring the amount to the account designated by the U.S. Borrower in the request for such Swingline Loan (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of a Financial LC Disbursement as provided in <u>Section 2.5(e)(i)</u>, by remittance to the applicable Issuing Lender) by 3:00 p.m. on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender's Applicable Revolving Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender's Applicable Revolving Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in <u>Section 2.7</u> with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and <u>Section 2.7</u> shall apply, *mutatis mutandis*, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the U.S. Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the U.S. Borrower (or other party on behalf of the U.S. Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the U.S. Borrower of its obligation to repay such Swingline Loan.

**<u>Section 2.5</u>** <u>Letters of Credit.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>General</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the U.S. Borrower may request the issuance of Financial Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period; <u>provided</u> that (A) after giving effect to the issuance of any Financial Letter of Credit, the amount of all Financial LC Exposure shall not exceed $200,000,000 (or, if less, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments at such time), (B) the Total Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, and (C) notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Financial Letters of Credit that are Alternative Currency Letters of Credit may only be issued by Bank of America, in its capacity as an Issuing Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the account party for each Financial Letter of Credit shall be the U.S. Borrower, the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, a Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower that is a Restricted Subsidiary, or a Joint Venture, as specified by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender in consultation with the U.S. Borrower. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the U.S. Borrower to, or entered into by the U.S. Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Lender relating to any Financial Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. As specified on <u>Schedule 1.1E</u>, certain Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be "Financial Letters of Credit" for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the U.S. Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender hereunder for any drawings under such Financial Letters of Credit. Furthermore, if (v) any letter of credit has been previously issued by an Issuing Lender, (w) the reimbursement obligations of the account party (the "<u>Original Financial Letter of Credit Account Party</u>") relating to such letter of credit have been or are assumed in writing by the U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower that is a Restricted Subsidiary (such assuming Person, the "<u>Financial Letter of Credit Assuming Person</u>") pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition or other transaction permitted under this Agreement, (x) there is sufficient availability hereunder for the inclusion of such letter of credit as a Financial Letter of Credit hereunder, (y) such letter of credit satisfies all of the requirements of a Financial Letter of Credit hereunder, and (z) the conditions of <u>Sections 4.2(a)</u> and <u>4.2(b)</u> are satisfied, then upon the written request (which written request shall include a statement that the foregoing requirements set forth in clauses (v) through (z), inclusive, have been satisfied) of the U.S. Borrower to such Issuing Lender (consented to in writing by such Issuing Lender) and the submission by the U.S. Borrower to the Administrative Agent of a copy of such request bearing such consent, such letter of credit shall be (from the date of such consent of such Issuing Lender) deemed a Financial Letter of Credit for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and considered issued hereunder pursuant to the terms hereof (the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents shall govern and prevail in the case of any conflict with the provisions of the agreement(s) pursuant to which such letter of credit had been issued (such agreement(s), the "<u>Original Financial Letter of Credit Agreements</u>"), and such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have released the Original Financial Letter of Credit Account Party and the Financial Letter of Credit Assuming Person from the Original Financial Letter of Credit Agreements to the extent of such conflict). Notwithstanding that any such assumed letter of credit is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower that is a Restricted Subsidiary or a Joint Venture, the U.S. Borrower agrees that it shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such letter of credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, any Borrower may request the issuance of Non-Financial Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period; <u>provided</u> that after giving effect to the issuance of any Non-Financial Letter of Credit, (A) the amount of all Non-Financial LC Exposure shall not exceed $50,000,000 (or, if less, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments at such time), and (B) the Total Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the account party for each Non-Financial Letter of Credit shall be the U.S. Borrower, the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, a Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower that is a Restricted Subsidiary or a Joint Venture, as specified by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender in consultation with the U.S. Borrower. 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 a Borrower to, or entered into by a Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Lender relating to any Non-Financial Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. As specified on <u>Schedule 1.1E</u>, certain Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be "Non-Financial Letters of Credit" for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the U.S. Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender hereunder for any drawings under such Non-Financial Letters of Credit. Furthermore, if (v) any letter of credit has been previously issued by an Issuing Lender, (w) the reimbursement obligations of the account party (the "<u>Original Non-Financial Letter of Credit Account Party</u>") relating to such letter of credit have been or are assumed in writing by the U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower that is a Restricted Subsidiary (such assuming Person, the "<u>Non-Financial Letter of Credit Assuming Person</u>") pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition or other transaction permitted under this Agreement, (x) there is sufficient availability hereunder for the inclusion of such letter of credit as a Non-Financial Letter of Credit hereunder, (y) such letter of credit satisfies all of the requirements of a Non-Financial Letter of Credit hereunder, and (z) the conditions of <u>Sections 4.2(a)</u> and <u>4.2(b)</u> are satisfied, then upon the written request (which written request shall include a statement that the foregoing requirements set forth in clauses (v) through (z), inclusive, have been satisfied) of the U.S. Borrower to such Issuing Lender (consented to in writing by such Issuing Lender) and the submission by the U.S. Borrower to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent of a copy of such request bearing such consent, such letter of credit shall be (from the date of such consent of such Issuing Lender) deemed a Non-Financial Letter of Credit for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and considered issued hereunder pursuant to the terms hereof (the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents shall govern and prevail in the case of any conflict with the provisions of the agreement(s) pursuant to which such letter of credit had been issued (such agreement(s), the "<u>Original Non-Financial Letter of Credit Agreements</u>"), and such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have released the Original Non-Financial Letter of Credit Account Party and the Non-Financial Letter of Credit Assuming Person from the Original Non-Financial Letter of Credit Agreements to the extent of such conflict). Notwithstanding that any such assumed letter of credit is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower that is a Restricted Subsidiary or a Joint Venture, the U.S. Borrower agrees that it shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such letter of credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) To request the issuance of a Financial Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Financial Letter of Credit), the U.S. Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Financial Letter of Credit, or identifying the Financial Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Financial Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with <u>Section 2.5(c)</u>), the amount of such Financial Letter of Credit, the currency in which such Financial Letter of Credit is to be denominated (which shall be Dollars or, subject to <u>Section 2.22</u>, an Alternative Currency), the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Financial Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, the U.S. Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender's standard form in connection with any request for a Financial Letter of Credit. Following receipt of such notice and prior to the issuance of the requested Financial Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall calculate the Dollar Equivalent of such Financial Letter of Credit and shall notify the U.S. Borrower and the applicable Issuing Lender of the amount of the Total Exposure after giving effect to (i) the issuance of such Financial Letter of Credit, (ii) the issuance or expiration of any other Financial Letter of Credit that is to be issued or will expire prior to the requested date of issuance of such Financial Letter of Credit and (iii) the borrowing or repayment of any Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans that (based upon notices delivered to the Administrative Agent by the U.S. Borrower) are to be borrowed or repaid prior to the requested date of issuance of such Financial Letter of Credit. A Financial Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Financial Letter of Credit the U.S. Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (A) the amount of all Financial LC Exposure shall not exceed $200,000,000 (or, if less, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments at such time), and (B) the Total Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments. No Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to issue any Financial Letter of Credit if any Revolving Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless such Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of cash collateral or other credit support to the Administrative Agent, satisfactory to such Issuing Lender (in its reasonable discretion) with the U.S. Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such Issuing Lender's actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to <u>Section 2.24(a)(iv</u>)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Financial Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Financial Letter of Credit and all other Financial LC Exposure as to which such Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion.

If the U.S. Borrower so requests, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Financial Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an "<u>Auto-Extension Letter of Credit</u>"); <u>provided</u> that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the applicable Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve (12) month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the "<u>Non-Extension Notice Date</u>") in each such twelve (12) month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Lender, the U.S. Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the applicable Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date; <u>provided</u> that the applicable Issuing Lender shall not permit any such extension if (A) the applicable Issuing Lender has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven (7) Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Lenders holding a majority of the Revolving Loans have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Lender or the U.S. Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in <u>Section 4.2</u> is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the applicable Issuing Lender not to permit such extension.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Any request for the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Non-Financial Letter of Credit and the processing of Utilization Requests with respect thereto and the expiration, cancellation, reduction or reversal thereof shall be subject to the same terms, conditions and provisions of <u>Section 2.6</u>, including as to the use of Permitted Currencies rather than Alternative Currencies, except instead of relating to the processing of Utilization Requests, they shall relate to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Non-Financial Letter of Credit, and the terms, conditions and provisions of <u>Section 2.6</u> shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to the request for the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Non-Financial Letter of Credit and the processing of Utilization Requests with respect thereto and the expiration, cancellation, reduction or reversal thereof; <u>provided</u> that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the applicable Issuing Lender shall have discretion whether or not to require that any Non-Financial Letter of Credit comply with the FCI Requirements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Expiration Date</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Each Financial 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 Financial 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 Revolving Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, as specified on <u>Schedule 1.1E</u>, certain Long Term Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be "Financial Letters of Credit" for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The U.S. Borrower agrees that on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and other termination of this Agreement, the U.S. Borrower shall (A) cause each such Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Financial Letter of Credit to be surrendered for cancellation to the U.S. Borrower, (B) provide Letter of Credit Cash Cover or (C) provide a back to back letter of credit on reasonably acceptable terms and conditions from a financial institution approved by the applicable Issuing Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in accordance with such Issuing Lender's existing banking practice consistently applied) or other credit support reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Face Amount of each such Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Financial Letter of Credit. Upon notice to the Administrative Agent of the termination, reduction or expiration (without any pending drawing) of any such Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Financial Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall release the whole or relevant part of the Letter of Credit Cash Cover (or other relevant credit support) within three Business Days of the relevant date of termination, reduction or expiration, and the Administrative Agent shall use the Letter of Credit Cash Cover (or other relevant credit support) to promptly reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender honoring any Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Financial Letter of Credit. If the U.S. Borrower is obliged to provide for Letter of Credit Cash Cover pursuant to the preceding provisions, the U.S. Borrower shall pay the relevant amount for which it shall provide Letter of Credit Cash Cover in Dollars to an account of the Administrative Agent, in the name of the U.S. Borrower, to be maintained for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Lender (such deposited amount, the "<u>Letter of Credit Cash Cover</u>"). Such account shall be an interest-bearing account (subject to the preceding provisions with the amount of interest to be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with its standard business practice) in the name of the U.S. Borrower and such account shall be pledged to the Administrative Agent on the basis of a pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto agree that the obligation of the Revolving Lenders hereunder to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any unreimbursed Financial LC Disbursements with respect to any Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Financial Letter of Credit shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date with respect to any drawings occurring after that date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each Non-Financial Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, as specified on <u>Schedule 1.1E</u>, certain Long Term Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be "Non-Financial Letters of Credit" for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The U.S. Borrower agrees that on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and other termination of this Agreement, the U.S. Borrower shall (A) cause each such Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Non-Financial Letter of Credit to be surrendered for cancellation to the U.S. Borrower, (B) provide Letter of Credit Cash Cover to the applicable Issuing Lender or (C) provide a back to back letter of credit on reasonably acceptable terms and conditions from a financial institution approved by the applicable Issuing Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in accordance with such Issuing Lender's existing banking practice consistently applied) or other credit support reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Face Amount of each such Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Non-Financial Letter of Credit. Upon notice to the applicable Issuing Lender of any termination, reduction or expiration (without any pending drawing) of any such Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Non-Financial Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall release the whole or relevant part of the Letter of Credit Cash Cover (or other relevant credit support) within three Business Days of the relevant date of termination, reduction or expiration, and the applicable Issuing Lender shall use the Letter of Credit Cash Cover (or other relevant credit support) to promptly reimburse the honoring any Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Non-Financial Letter of Credit. If the U.S. Borrower is obliged to provide for Letter of Credit Cash Cover pursuant to the preceding provisions, the U.S. Borrower shall pay the relevant amount for which it shall provide Letter of Credit Cash Cover in Dollars to an account of the applicable Issuing Lender and in the name of the U.S. Borrower. Such account shall be a non-interest-bearing account (unless the applicable Issuing Lender in its discretion agrees otherwise with the U.S. Borrower in a writing setting forth the terms of any interest) in the name of the U.S. Borrower and such account shall be pledged to the applicable Issuing Lender on the basis of a pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender and the U.S. Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto agree that the obligation of the Revolving Lenders hereunder to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any unreimbursed Non-Financial LC Disbursements with respect to any Long Term Letter of Credit that is deemed to be a Non-Financial Letter of Credit shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date with respect to any drawings occurring after that date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Participations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) By the issuance of a Financial Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Financial Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted, automatically, to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, automatically, from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Financial Letter of Credit equal to such Lender's Applicable Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Financial Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Lender's Applicable Revolving Percentage of (A) each Financial LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in Dollars and (B) the Dollar Equivalent, using the Exchange Rates on the date such payment is required, of each Financial LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in an Alternative Currency and, in each case, not reimbursed by the U.S. Borrower on the date due as provided in <u>Section 2.5(e)(i)</u>, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the U.S. Borrower for any reason (or, if such reimbursement payment was refunded in an Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent thereof using the Exchange Rates on the date of such refund). Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Financial Letters of Credit are absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Financial Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) By the issuance of a Non-Financial Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Non-Financial Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted, automatically, to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, automatically, from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Non-Financial Letter of Credit equal to such Lender's Applicable Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Non-Financial Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in Dollars, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Lender's Applicable Revolving Percentage of (A) each Non-Financial LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in Dollars and (B) the Dollar Equivalent, using the Exchange Rates on the date such payment is required, of each Non-Financial LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in an Alternative Currency and, in each case, not reimbursed by the relevant Borrower on the date due as provided in <u>Section 2.5(e)(ii)</u>, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason (or, if such reimbursement payment was refunded in an Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent thereof using the Exchange Rates on the date of such refund). Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Non-Financial Letters of Credit are absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Non-Financial Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Reimbursement</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If the applicable Issuing Lender shall make any Financial LC Disbursement in respect of a Financial Letter of Credit, the U.S. Borrower shall reimburse such Financial LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such Financial LC Disbursement plus any interim interest incurred pursuant to <u>Section 2.5(h)(i)</u> for (x) Financial LC Disbursements made in Dollars, in Dollars, or (y) Financial LC Disbursements made in an Alternative Currency, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date such Financial LC Disbursement is made, of such Financial LC Disbursement, in each case, not later than 12:00 noon or the Applicable Time, as applicable, on the date that such Financial LC Disbursement is made, if the U.S. Borrower shall have received notice of such Financial LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m. or the Applicable Time, as applicable, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the U.S. Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon or the Applicable Time, as applicable, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the U.S. Borrower receives such notice; <u>provided</u> that in the case of any Financial LC Disbursement made in Dollars, the U.S. Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with <u>Section 2.3</u> or <u>Section 2.4</u> that such payment be financed in Dollars with a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the U.S. Borrower's obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans or Swingline Loan. If the U.S. Borrower fails to make such payment when due, then (A) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action required, the U.S. Borrower's obligation to reimburse the applicable Financial LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date when such payment was due, of such Financial LC Disbursement and (B) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender and each other Revolving Lender of the applicable Financial LC Disbursement, the Dollar Equivalent thereof (if such Financial LC Disbursement relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), the payment then due from the U.S. Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender's Applicable Revolving Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Applicable Revolving Percentage of the payment then due from the U.S. Borrower (determined as provided in clause (A) above, if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), in the same manner as provided in <u>Section 2.7</u> with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and <u>Section 2.7</u> shall apply, *mutatis mutandis*, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender in Dollars the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the U.S. Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Lender for any Financial LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the U.S. Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Financial LC Disbursement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the applicable Issuing Lender shall make any Non-Financial LC Disbursement in respect of a Non-Financial Letter of Credit, the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such Non-Financial LC Disbursement by paying to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent an amount equal to such Non-Financial LC Disbursement plus any interim interest incurred pursuant to <u>Section 2.5(h)(ii)</u> for (x) Non-Financial LC Disbursements made in Dollars, in Dollars, or (y) Non-Financial LC Disbursements made in an Alternative Currency, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date such Non-Financial LC Disbursement is made, of such Non-Financial LC Disbursement, in each case, not later than 12:00 noon or the Applicable Time, as applicable, on the date that such Non-Financial LC Disbursement is made, if such Borrower shall have received notice of such Non-Financial LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m. or the Applicable Time, as applicable, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by such Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon or the Applicable Time, as applicable, on the Business Day immediately following the day that such Borrower receives such notice; <u>provided</u> that in the case of any Non-Financial LC Disbursement made in Dollars, the relevant Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with <u>Section 2.3</u> or <u>Section 2.4</u> that such payment be financed in Dollars with a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower's obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans. If the relevant Borrower fails to make such payment when due, then (A) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action required, such Borrower's obligation to reimburse the applicable Non-Financial LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date when such payment was due, of such Non-Financial LC Disbursement and (B) the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender and each other Revolving Lender of the applicable Non-Financial LC Disbursement, the Dollar Equivalent thereof (if such Non-Financial LC Disbursement relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender's Applicable Revolving Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in Dollars its Applicable Revolving Percentage of the payment then due from the relevant Borrower (determined as provided in clause (A) above, if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), in the same manner as provided in <u>Section 2.7</u> with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and <u>Section 2.7</u> shall apply, *mutatis mutandis*, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender in Dollars the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders.

Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Lender for any Non-Financial LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Non-Financial LC Disbursement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Obligations Absolute</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The U.S. Borrower's obligation to reimburse Financial LC Disbursements as provided in <u>Section 2.5(e)(i)</u> 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 (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Financial Letter of Credit, any application for the issuance of a Financial Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (B) any draft or other document presented under a Financial Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (C) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under a Financial Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Financial Letter of Credit, (D) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the U.S. Borrower or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in the relevant currency markets generally or (E) 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, such Borrower's obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Financial 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 Financial 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 Lender; <u>provided</u> that neither of the foregoing sentences shall be construed to excuse such Issuing Lender from liability to the U.S. Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the U.S. Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender's gross negligence, willful misconduct or failure to exercise care (each as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Financial Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Cash Collateralization</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the U.S. Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with Financial LC Exposure representing at least a majority of the total Financial LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the U.S. Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in Dollars and in cash equal to the Financial LC Exposure of the U.S. Borrower as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; <u>provided</u> that (A) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Alternative Currency Letters of Credit or Financial LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency that the Borrowers are not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Alternative Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Financial Letters of Credit and Financial LC Disbursements and (B) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Parent or the U.S. Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of <u>Article VII</u>. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Alternative Currency Financial LC Exposure shall be calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date notice demanding cash collateralization is delivered to the U.S. Borrower. The U.S. Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by <u>Section 2.12(c)</u>. Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to <u>Section 2.12(c)</u> shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the U.S. Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the U.S. Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for Financial LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the U.S. Borrower for the Financial LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with Financial LC Exposure representing at least a majority of the total Financial LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the U.S. Borrower under this Agreement. If the U.S. Borrower is required to 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 U.S. Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the U.S. Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to <u>Section 2.12(c)</u>, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the U.S. Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the U.S. Borrower would remain in compliance with <u>Section 2.12(c)</u>, and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Furthermore, if any Financial Letter of Credit is outstanding on the date that the U.S. Borrower terminates the Revolving Commitments pursuant to <u>Section 2.9(b)</u>, the U.S. Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, (1) cause any such Financial Letter of Credit to be surrendered for cancellation to the applicable Issuing Lender, (2) provide cash collateral pursuant to the terms of this paragraph (or other credit support reasonably satisfactory) to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Issuing Lender in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Face Amount of such Financial Letter of Credit pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or (3) provide a backup letter of credit on reasonably acceptable terms and conditions to such Issuing Lender in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Face Amount of such Financial Letter of Credit from a financial institution approved by such Issuing Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed in accordance with such Issuing Lender's existing banking practice consistently applied). The U.S. Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent a security interest in all such cash collateral and all proceeds thereof. Such cash collateral shall be maintained in a blocked interest-bearing deposit account at Bank of America. Upon notice to the Administrative Agent of the termination, reduction or expiration (without a pending drawing) of any such Financial Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall release the relevant cash collateral within three Business Days of the relevant date of termination, reduction or expiration, and the Administrative Agent shall use such cash collateral to promptly reimburse any Issuing Lender honoring any drawing under any such Financial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be required to deposit cash in support of any obligation of any other Borrower and no collateral or other credit support provided by any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall serve as security for any obligation of any other Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that a Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with Non-Financial LC Exposure representing at least a majority of the total Non-Financial LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, such Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in Dollars and in cash equal to the Non-Financial LC Exposure of such Borrower as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; <u>provided</u> that (A) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Alternative Currency Letters of Credit or Non-Financial LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency that the Borrowers are not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Alternative Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Non-Financial Letters of Credit and Non-Financial LC Disbursements and (B) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Parent or the U.S. Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of <u>Article VII</u>. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Alternative Currency Non-Financial LC Exposure shall be calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date notice demanding cash collateralization is delivered to a Borrower. Each Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by <u>Section 2.12(c)</u>. Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to <u>Section 2.12(c)</u> shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the applicable Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the relevant Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for Non-Financial LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the relevant Borrower for the Non-Financial LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with Non-Financial LC Exposure representing at least a majority of the total Non-Financial LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of such Borrower under this Agreement. If a Borrower is required to 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 such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to <u>Section 2.12(c)</u>, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, such Borrower would remain in compliance with <u>Section 2.12(c)</u>, and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Furthermore, if any Non-Financial Letter of Credit is outstanding on the date that the U.S. Borrower terminates the Revolving Commitments pursuant to <u>Section 2.9(b)</u>, the U.S. Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, (1) cause any such Non-Financial Letter of Credit to be surrendered for cancellation to the applicable Issuing Lender, (2) provide cash collateral pursuant to the terms of this paragraph (or other credit support reasonably satisfactory) to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Issuing Lender in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Face Amount of such Non-Financial Letter of Credit pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or (3) provide a backup letter of credit on reasonably acceptable terms and conditions to such Issuing Lender in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Face Amount of such Non-Financial Letter of Credit from a financial institution approved by such Issuing Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed in accordance with such Issuing Lender's existing banking practice consistently applied). The U.S. Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent a security interest in all such cash collateral and all proceeds thereof. Such cash collateral shall be maintained in a blocked interest-bearing deposit account at the Administrative Agent's institution. Upon notice to the Administrative Agent of the termination, reduction or expiration (without a pending drawing) of any such Non-Financial Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall release the relevant cash collateral within three Business Days of the relevant date of termination, reduction or expiration, and the Administrative Agent shall use such cash collateral to promptly reimburse any Issuing Lender honoring any drawing under any such Non-Financial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be required to deposit cash in support of any obligation of any other Borrower and no collateral or other credit support provided by any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall serve as security for any obligation of any other Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Each Issuing Lender of Financial Letters of Credit will report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the aggregate Face Amount of Financial Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding week, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender expects to issue, amend (including increases or decreases), renew or extend any Financial Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance or amendment, and the aggregate Face Amount of Financial Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and such Issuing Lender shall advise the Administrative Agent on such Business Day whether such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred and whether the amount thereof changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender makes any Financial LC Disbursement, the date of such Financial LC Disbursement and the amount of such Financial LC Disbursement and (iv) on any Business Day on which the U.S. Borrower fails to reimburse a Financial LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Lender on such day, the date of such failure, the U.S. Borrower and amount of such Financial LC Disbursement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Reporting requirements with respect to a Non-Financial Letter of Credit shall be subject to the same terms, conditions and provisions of <u>Section 2.6</u>, except instead of relating to the reporting requirements of an FCI, they shall relate to the reporting requirements of a Non-Financial Letter of Credit, and the terms, conditions and provisions of <u>Section 2.6</u> shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to the reporting requirements of a Non-Financial Letter of Credit.

**<u>Section 2.6</u>** <u>FCIs.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>FCI Issuing Commitments</u>. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each FCI Issuing Lender severally agrees to issue FCIs (other than Trade LCs), and (ii) each FCI Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion and with terms and conditions required by such FCI Issuing Lender, issue Trade LCs; <u>provided</u> that after giving effect to any issuance of any FCI, the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding amount of the FCI Reimbursement Obligations of such FCI Issuing Lender, and of the FCIs of such FCI Issuing Lender, shall not exceed the principal amount of the FCI Issuing Commitment of such FCI Issuing Lender at such time. Each FCI Issuing Lender, after consultation with the U.S. Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, may issue any FCI by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such FCI Issuing Lender to issue such FCI if in the judgment of such FCI Issuing Lender such designation (A) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to <u>Section 2.17</u> or <u>Section 2.19</u>, as the case may be, and (B) would not subject such FCI Issuing Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense, or would otherwise be advantageous to such FCI Issuing Lender; <u>provided</u> that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligations of the relevant Borrower or such FCI Issuing Lender under this <u>Section 2.6</u>. Furthermore, if (1) any letter of credit, guarantee or surety has been previously issued by an FCI Issuing Lender, (2) the reimbursement obligations of the account party (the "<u>Original FCI Account Party</u>") relating to such letter of credit, guarantee or surety have been or are assumed in writing by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary (such assuming Person, the "<u>FCI Assuming Person</u>") pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition or other transaction permitted under this Agreement, (3) there is sufficient availability hereunder for the inclusion of such letter of credit, guarantee or surety as an FCI hereunder, (4) such letter of credit, guarantee or surety satisfies all of the requirements of an FCI hereunder, and (5) the conditions of <u>Sections 4.2(a)</u> and <u>4.2(b)</u> are satisfied, then upon the written request of the U.S. Borrower to such FCI Issuing Lender (consented to in writing by such FCI Issuing Lender), the submission by the U.S. Borrower to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent of a copy of such request bearing such consent and the submission by a Borrower to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent of a completed Utilization Request including a statement that the foregoing requirements (1) through (5), inclusive, have been satisfied and that such Borrower submitting such Utilization Request shall be treated as a Borrower hereunder with respect to such letter of credit, guarantee or surety, such letter of credit, guarantee or surety shall be (from the date of such consent of such FCI Issuing Lender) deemed an FCI for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and considered issued hereunder at the request of the Borrower that submitted such Utilization Request pursuant to the terms hereof (the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents shall govern and prevail in the case of any conflict with the provisions of the agreement(s) pursuant to which such letter of credit, guarantee or surety had been issued (such agreement(s), the "<u>Original FCI-Related Agreements</u>"), and such FCI Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have released the Original FCI Account Party and the FCI Assuming Person from the Original FCI-Related Agreements to the extent of such conflict). Any Utilization Request submitted to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be reviewed and processed in accordance with <u>Section 2.6(c)</u>, <u>Section 2.6(d)</u>, <u>Section 2.6(e)</u> and <u>Section 2.6(f)</u>, as applicable. Notwithstanding that any such assumed letter of credit, guarantee or surety is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Restricted Subsidiary or a Joint Venture, the U.S. Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers agree that the applicable Borrower (as identified in the Utilization Request referenced above) shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable FCI Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such letter of credit, guarantee or surety.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the following provisions shall apply in respect of Trade LCs: (I) each Trade LC shall be administered directly between the Borrowers and the applicable FCI Issuing Lender, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall not be involved in that process; (II) each request for the issuance or amendment of a Trade LC shall be sent by the relevant Borrower directly to the FCI Issuing Lender requested to issue or amend such Trade LC; (III) the applicable FCI Issuing Lender shall be responsible for ensuring that neither the issuance of any Trade LC or other FCI nor the issuance of any amendment increasing the stated amount of any thereof causes such FCI Issuing Lender's FCI Issuing Lender Exposure to exceed such FCI Issuing Lender's FCI Issuing Commitment; (IV) the Borrowers and the applicable FCI Issuing Lender shall be responsible for arranging for the reimbursement of any drawings under such Trade LCs; (V) the reporting as to outstanding Trade LCs, including the issuance thereof, any drawings thereunder, any banker's acceptances created thereunder, any deferred payment undertakings incurred thereunder, and any obligations thereunder to reimburse any negotiating banks, confirming banks or other nominated banks shall be as agreed from time to time by the Borrowers and the applicable FCI Issuing Lender; (VI) the applicable FCI Issuing Lender shall be responsible for determining and monitoring whether, due to changes in foreign currency rates or otherwise, the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the FCI Issuing Lender Exposure of such FCI Issuing Lender at any time exceeds such FCI Issuing Lender's FCI Issuing Commitment and, if there is such an excess, the relevant Borrower shall arrange to provide Cash Cover for the amount of such excess in accordance with <u>Section 2.6(m)(i)</u>; and (VII) the Borrowers and the applicable FCI Issuing Lender shall be responsible for the calculation, payment and collection of all fees and handling charges with respect to Trade LCs (including arranging for any necessary offset to take account of any fees calculated by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent without reference to such Trade LCs); <u>provided</u> that any FCI Fees payable to any FCI Issuing Lender in respect of Trade LCs shall be reduced by the amount of any related FCI Commitment Fee payable in respect of the FCI Issuing Commitment of such FCI Issuing Lender utilized by the issuance of such Trade LCs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Extension Option</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The U.S. Borrower may from time to time during the term of this Agreement, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (such notice being an "<u>Extension Notice</u>") delivered no later than 60 days prior to the Foreign Trade Maturity Date (the date of such notice, the "<u>Notice Date</u>"), request one or more FCI Issuing Lenders to extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date to a later date (such extended date, the "<u>Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date</u>"). The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly transmit any Extension Notice to each FCI Issuing Lender. Each FCI Issuing Lender shall notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent whether it wishes to extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date at least 30 days (or such earlier date as directed by the U.S. Borrower) prior to the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date, and any such notice given by an FCI Issuing Lender to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, once given, shall be irrevocable as to such FCI Issuing Lender. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower of the notice of each FCI Issuing Lender that it wishes to extend (each, an "<u>Extension Acceptance Notice</u>"). Any FCI Issuing Lender which does not expressly notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on or before the date that is 30 days (or such earlier date as directed by the U.S. Borrower) prior to the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date that it wishes to so extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date shall be deemed to have rejected the U.S. Borrower's request for extension of such Foreign Trade Maturity Date. If one or more of the FCI Issuing Lenders have elected (in each case in their sole and absolute discretion) to so extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower of such election by such FCI Issuing Lenders no later than five Business Days after the date when Extension Acceptance Notices are due, and effective on the date of such notice by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent to the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower (the "<u>Extension Date</u>"), the Foreign Trade Maturity Date shall be automatically and immediately so extended as to each such FCI Issuing Lender to the Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if any FCI Issuing Lenders shall not have elected (in each case in their sole and absolute discretion) or are deemed not to have elected to so extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date, then (x) the FCI Issuing Commitment of each such non-extending FCI Issuing Lender will be automatically terminated as of the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date (not giving effect to the proposed extension), and (y) the aggregate FCI Issuing Commitments shall be reduced as of the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date (not giving effect to the proposed extension) by the amounts of the FCI Issuing Commitments of each such non-extending FCI Issuing Lender; <u>provided</u> that (A) each outstanding FCI issued by a non-extending FCI Issuing Lender shall continue to be considered an issued FCI hereunder and part of the FCI Issuing Lender Exposure hereunder unless the U.S. Borrower elects in its sole discretion to have a Counter-Guarantee issued hereunder in favor of such non-extending FCI Issuing Lender or the U.S. Borrower or other relevant Borrower provides Cash Cover (or other credit support) in accordance with <u>Section 2.6(m)</u>, in each case to support such FCIs, in which case such FCIs shall no longer be considered to be FCIs issued pursuant to this Agreement except that for purposes of <u>Section 2.6(h)</u>, <u>(n)(iii)</u> and <u>(n)(iv)</u> such FCIs shall continue to be considered as issued pursuant to this Agreement and the Borrowers' obligations under such Sections with respect to fees, costs, expenses, reimbursement and indemnification obligations shall continue to apply with respect to such FCIs, (B) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall have entered into such agreements, if any, as any of them shall have reasonably requested to reflect such extension of the Foreign Trade Facility with reduced FCI Issuing Commitments, and (C) on or prior to the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date (not giving effect to the proposed extension), the U.S. Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to each non-extending FCI Issuing Lender all amounts owing to such non-extending FCI Issuing Lender with respect to its FCI Issuing Commitment, including the repayment of an amount equal to the funded FCI Disbursements made by such non-extending FCI Issuing Lender, any accrued interest thereon, accrued fees thereon and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in connection with such FCI Issuing Commitment. Upon the delivery of an Extension Notice and upon the extension of the Foreign Trade Maturity Date pursuant to this <u>Section 2.6(b)(i)</u>, the U.S. Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted on and as of the Notice Date and the Extension Date, as the case may be, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no FCI Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to extend the Foreign Trade Maturity Date, and each FCI Issuing Lender may, at its option, unconditionally and without cause, decline to extend the Foreign Trade Maturity Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Foreign Trade Maturity Date shall have been extended in accordance with <u>Section 2.6(b)(i)</u> then, as to the applicable extending FCI Issuing Lenders, all references herein to the "Foreign Trade Maturity Date" shall refer to the Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The U.S. Borrower shall have the right on or before the applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date to replace each non-extending FCI Issuing Lender with one or more Persons reasonably satisfactory to the U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (such replacing Persons, the "<u>Additional FCI Issuing Lenders</u>"), as provided in <u>Section 2.21(b)</u>, each of which such Additional FCI Issuing Lenders shall have entered into an Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which such Additional FCI Issuing Lender shall, effective as of the applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date, undertake an FCI Issuing Commitment (and if any such Additional FCI Issuing Lender is already an FCI Issuing Lender, its new FCI Issuing Commitment shall be in addition to any other FCI Issuing Commitment of such FCI Issuing Lender on such date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Procedure for Issuance and Reversals</u>. Each Borrower may, at any time and from time to time during the period from the Effective Date until the Foreign Trade Maturity Date, request the issuance of FCIs or an extension or other amendment of any outstanding FCI by sending to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent a duly completed request for issuance (each, a "<u>Utilization Request</u>") by electronic transfer using the db direct internet or replacement communications facility in accordance with the terms of the DB Direct Internet Agreement. If for technical reasons it should not be possible to make a request for issuance through db direct internet (or such replacement communications facility), such request may be made (to be pre-advised by the relevant Borrower) via email or by letter, in substantially the form of <u>Exhibit H</u>, in each case to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent as specified in <u>Section 9.1</u> (or to an email address or other address agreed with the Foreign Trade Facility Agent for this purpose) receipt of such email or letter to be promptly confirmed by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent to the relevant Borrower for this purpose; <u>provided</u> that in such case explicit reference must be made to this Agreement, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall in such case not be held responsible for a delayed processing of such Utilization Request unless such delayed processing is caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct (each as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) on the part of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent following the confirmation of the receipt of the relevant email or letter. It is acknowledged that the Foreign Trade Facility Agent will not, in the event a Utilization Request is submitted by email, be in a position to verify whether such Utilization Request has been duly authorized and sent by the relevant Borrower, and each Borrower hereby agrees that the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be entitled to execute all Utilization Requests received by email if on their face such emails appear to be duly authorized and executed or sent by persons acting on behalf of such Borrower who have been identified as authorized signatories in annex 1.3.1 (or any replacement annex) to the DB Direct Internet Agreement or in the officer's certificate furnished pursuant to the Third Amendment. Neither the Foreign Trade Facility Agent nor any of the Lenders shall be held liable for the execution of any forged Utilization Request received by email except where the forgery is evident on the face of the forged Utilization Request furnished to such Person or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or the respective FCI Issuing Lender acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct (each as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) with respect to such Utilization Request. No Utilization Request will be regarded as having been duly completed unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the requested undertaking would constitute a Warranty Guarantee, a Performance Guarantee, an Advance Payment Guarantee, a Tender Guarantee, a Counter-Guarantee, a General Purpose Guarantee or a Trade LC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) such Utilization Request and the terms and conditions for the requested FCI are in the English language (or, if not in the English language, then in the sole discretion of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or the applicable FCI Issuing Lender, must be accompanied by an English translation certified by the relevant Borrower to be a true and correct English translation that the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and such FCI Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall be entitled to rely upon);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the requested FCI is denominated in a Permitted Currency or any other currency agreed by the applicable FCI Issuing Lender and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) the expiry date of the requested FCI (A) is not stated by reference to any events in the underlying contract, (B) is not subject to conflicting interpretation, and (C) if the requested FCI does not provide for determination of a specific expiry date, the Commercial Lifetime falls within the Permitted Maturity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) the obligor of the obligations to be supported by the requested FCI is named;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) upon issuance of the requested FCI (for this purpose such FCI is deemed to be issued at the time of receipt of the Utilization Request therefor by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent), the thresholds for the different types of FCIs set forth under <u>Section 2.6(d)</u> would not be exceeded;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) an FCI Issuing Lender is determined pursuant to the terms hereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) the Utilization Request is in compliance with <u>Section 2.6(d)</u>.

Only one FCI may be requested in each Utilization Request. A Utilization Request may only be revoked by the relevant Borrower (x) until the Foreign Trade Facility Agent has forwarded the Utilization Request to the relevant FCI Issuing Lender in accordance with <u>Section 2.6(g)</u>, by giving notice to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or (y) thereafter, by giving notice to the relevant FCI Issuing Lender which has to be received by such FCI Issuing Lender at a time when such FCI Issuing Lender will, with reasonable efforts, still be in a position to stop the delivery of the relevant FCI to the relevant beneficiary or any other Person as instructed by such Borrower. In such case, the relevant FCI Issuing Lender shall promptly inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the relevant Borrower that the requested FCI has not been issued. No FCI Issuing Lender shall be required to issue an FCI in any jurisdiction that would impose withholding taxes on any payments in respect of such FCI.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Limitations on Use</u>. The Borrowers may only request the issuance of FCIs if the Dollar Equivalent of such requested FCI, when aggregated with the Dollar Equivalent of all other outstanding FCIs and unreimbursed FCI Disbursements as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request, does not exceed the total FCI Issuing Commitments. If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent is of the opinion that a requested FCI is not of the type as specified in the Utilization Request by a Borrower or if the type of FCI is not clearly specified in the relevant Utilization Request, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall reasonably determine the type of the requested FCI based on the purpose (or, if such FCI is intended to serve more than one purpose, the primary purpose) assumed by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on the basis of the wording of the relevant requested FCI and the facts and circumstances known to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent at the time of the receipt of such Utilization Request, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall inform such Borrower accordingly of such determination. No Borrower shall make a Utilization Request for FCIs to serve as security for obligations of any Person other than a Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary or a Joint Venture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Deviations from FCI Requirements</u>. No FCI Issuing Lender shall be obliged to issue an FCI (i) which does not fulfill the FCI Requirements, (ii) which shall be issued in a currency other than a Permitted Currency, or (iii) if the issuance of the relevant FCI is not permitted pursuant to its internal rules and guidelines. In order to avoid a rejection of any issuance of an FCI requested by a Borrower due to non-compliance of its terms with the FCI Requirements, each Borrower hereby undertakes that, with respect to any FCI to be issued where such Borrower considers it reasonably likely that it will not be in a position to negotiate with the relevant future beneficiary terms for the relevant FCI which will meet the FCI Requirements, such Borrower will as soon as possible approach the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and designate an FCI Issuing Lender to issue such FCI pursuant to the terms of <u>Section 2.6(f)</u>. Each Borrower shall seek advice from the FCI Issuing Lender designated by such Borrower as the relevant FCI Issuing Lender with respect to all FCI related issues during its negotiations of the underlying contract with the potential beneficiary of such FCI. In cases where, in spite of such Borrower's commercially reasonable efforts, fulfillment of the FCI Requirements appears unachievable, the relevant FCI Issuing Lender and such Borrower shall try to reach an agreement on an indemnity in favor of such FCI Issuing Lender which allows such FCI Issuing Lender to issue the relevant FCI in its contractual relationship with such Borrower; <u>provided</u> that the right of the relevant FCI Issuing Lender to reject the issuance of the requested FCI shall remain unaffected.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Receipt of Utilization Request</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Following the receipt of a Utilization Request, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine whether in its opinion the Utilization Request is duly completed. If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent is of the opinion that the Utilization Request is not duly completed, it shall promptly inform the relevant Borrower and shall liaise with such Borrower with a view to agree on a modification of such Utilization Request. If no such agreement can be reached, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall reject the Utilization Request. If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent is of the opinion (following a modification of such Utilization Request) that the Utilization Request is duly completed, it shall forward such Utilization Request to the designated FCI Issuing Lender(s).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent determines that, due to the amount of the requested FCI, the requested FCI cannot be issued by a single FCI Issuing Lender, it shall promptly inform the relevant Borrower and such Borrower shall then either withdraw the relevant Utilization Request or instruct the Foreign Trade Facility Agent that the relevant FCI shall be split into two or, if necessary due to the amount of the FCI, more FCIs issued by two or more FCI Issuing Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) In no event shall the aggregate amount (without duplication) of the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of all FCIs issued by all FCI Issuing Lenders <u>plus</u> the Dollar Equivalent of all unreimbursed FCI Disbursements of all such FCI Issuing Lenders exceed the aggregate amount of the FCI Issuing Commitments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Issuance of FCIs</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly forward each Utilization Request to the relevant FCI Issuing Lender by no later than 3:00 p.m., Düsseldorf time, on the Business Day following the day it has received such Utilization Request (or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the Business Day following the first Business Day after the day the Foreign Trade Facility Agent has received the Utilization Request). The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine in its notice to the relevant FCI Issuing Lender the day on which the requested FCI shall be issued (such day being the "<u>Utilization Date</u>") which shall be the second Business Day of such FCI Issuing Lender immediately following its receipt of the Utilization Request. Such FCI Issuing Lender(s) shall issue the respective FCI(s) on the Utilization Date unless such FCI Issuing Lender informs the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the relevant Borrower on or prior to 5:00 p.m., Düsseldorf time, on the Utilization Date that (and specifying the reasons) (A) it will not be able to issue the relevant FCI on the Utilization Date (in which case the FCI Issuing Lender shall inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and such Borrower when it will be able to issue the relevant FCI) or (B) it will not be able to issue the FCI at all (1) due to its internal rules and guidelines, (2) due to any applicable law or regulation with which it has to comply, (3) due to the currency (other than any Permitted Currency) in which the FCI shall be issued, or (4) because it is of the opinion that the FCI Requirements are not fulfilled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If an FCI shall be issued on the same day the Utilization Request is delivered to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (or if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day), the relevant Borrower shall inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in advance that the requested FCI shall be issued on the same day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day). The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly inform the relevant FCI Issuing Lender accordingly which shall be obliged to use commercially reasonable efforts to issue the FCI on the same day as it receives the Utilization Request (or if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) (A) In the cases referred to in clauses (A) and (B)(3) of <u>Section 2.6(g)(i)</u>, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall obtain, and follow, instructions from the relevant Borrower, (B) in the cases referred to in clauses (B)(1), (2) and (4) of <u>Section 2.6(g)(i)</u>, the relevant Borrower shall agree with the relevant FCI Issuing Lender as to any amendments necessary to the respective FCI to enable the relevant FCI Issuing Lender to issue the relevant FCI and, in the case of clause (B)(4), <u>Section 2.6(e)</u> shall apply *mutatis mutandis*, (C) if, in the cases referred to under (A) or (B) above, no agreement can be reached between the relevant FCI Issuing Lender and the relevant Borrower, such FCI Issuing Lender shall reject the request to issue the requested FCI and the relevant Borrower shall promptly advise the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and shall designate another FCI Issuing Lender and the time for issuance of the FCI shall be postponed to the extent necessary for practical reasons. Such FCI Issuing Lender shall promptly inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent about all changes agreed with such Borrower with respect to a Utilization Request in accordance with this clause (iii).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The relevant FCI Issuing Lender may either issue the FCI directly or, if requested by and agreed with the relevant Borrower, arrange that the FCI (an "<u>Indirect FCI</u>") be issued by a second bank (including one of such FCI Issuing Lender's domestic or foreign branches or affiliates) or financial institution (the "<u>Indirect FCI Issuing Lender</u>") against such FCI Issuing Lender's corresponding Counter-Guarantee (which may support one or more Indirect FCIs and which may be for a longer or shorter tenor than such Indirect FCI(s) so long as the tenor of such Counter-Guarantee is permitted under this Agreement) in the form satisfactory to the Indirect FCI Issuing Lender. In addition, in the case that an issued and outstanding letter of credit, guaranty or surety is being rolled into the Foreign Trade Facility as an FCI in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, then if requested by and agreed with the relevant Borrower, the relevant FCI Issuing Lender may arrange that one or more corresponding Counter-Guarantees (which may support one or more Indirect FCIs and which may be for a longer or shorter tenor than such Indirect FCI(s) so long as the tenor of such Counter-Guarantee is permitted under this Agreement), in the form satisfactory to the issuer of such existing letter of credit, guaranty or surety, be issued by such FCI Issuing Lender, in which event (A) the issued letter of credit, guaranty or surety shall be treated as an Indirect FCI, and (B) the issuer thereof shall be treated as an Indirect FCI Issuing Lender. In case of an Indirect FCI, such FCI Issuing Lender is entitled to receive, for payment to the Indirect FCI Issuing Lender, separate fees and expenses in respect of such Indirect FCI in addition to the fees and expenses pursuant to <u>Section 2.6(n)</u>. In line with international practices, the tenor of a Counter-Guarantee in favor of the Indirect FCI Issuing Lender may exceed the tenor of the Indirect FCI by at least ten calendar days so long as such tenor is permitted under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) If a Utilization Request is made to request an amendment (including an extension) of any outstanding FCI, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall forward the Utilization Request to the relevant FCI Issuing Lender if the requirements of <u>Section 2.6(d)</u> are fulfilled. Clauses (i) through (iii) of this <u>Section 2.6(g)</u> shall apply *mutatis mutandis*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Each FCI Issuing Lender shall comply at all times with the obligations set forth on <u>Schedule 2.6(g)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) If the relevant FCI Issuing Lender has not rejected the request to issue an FCI, the requested currency of which is not a Permitted Currency, the relevant Borrower assumes all risks related thereto and shall reimburse all costs reasonably incurred in connection with the procurement of such currency for honoring such FCI in such specific currency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Borrower Liabilities</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If an FCI Issuing Lender receives a request for payment under any FCI (including from an Indirect FCI Issuing Lender under a Counter-Guarantee) issued by it, it shall promptly (and before any payment is made in respect thereof) inform the relevant Borrower, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent accordingly. A Borrower's obligation to reimburse any payment made by an FCI Issuing Lender under an FCI (each, an "<u>FCI Disbursement</u>") 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 (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any FCI, of any request for the issuance thereof or of this Agreement, or of any term or provision therein or herein, or of any underlying agreement (B) any draft or other document presented under an FCI proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (C) payment by the applicable FCI Issuing Lender under an FCI against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such FCI, or (D) 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, such Borrower's obligations hereunder. Neither the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the Lenders nor any FCI Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any FCI 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 FCI (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in the finding of true facts or law or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable FCI Issuing Lender; <u>provided</u> that neither of the foregoing sentences shall be construed to excuse such FCI Issuing Lender 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 each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such FCI Issuing Lender's gross negligence, willful misconduct or failure to exercise care (each as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under an FCI comply with the terms thereof, or if the obligation to honor a request for payment under an FCI depends upon non-documentary conditions, whether questions of facts or law at issue in the underlying transaction justify the payment by the FCI Issuing Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, (1) with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of an FCI, an FCI Issuing Lender 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 FCI; or (2) if the obligation to honor a request for payment under an FCI depends upon non-documentary conditions, an FCI Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such facts presented in connection with the request for payment, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary; <u>provided</u> that the applicable Borrower does not promptly provide irrefutable evidence that facts presented in connection with the request for payment are not true, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such facts. Without limiting any rights that the applicable FCI Issuing Lender may have under applicable law, (I) the applicable Borrower's aggregate remedies against the applicable FCI Issuing Lender for wrongfully honoring a presentation or wrongfully retaining honored documents shall in no event exceed the aggregate amount paid by such Borrower to such FCI Issuing Lender with respect to the honored presentation, plus interest at the rate equal to Term SOFR for an Interest Period of one month, (II) the applicable FCI Issuing Lender may accept as a draft any written or electronic demand or request for payment under an FCI, even if non-negotiable or not in the form of a draft, and may disregard any requirement that such draft, demand or request bear any or adequate reference to the FCI, and (III) the applicable FCI Issuing Lender may purchase or discount an accepted draft or deferred payment obligation incurred under an FCI without affecting the amount or timing of the reimbursement due from the applicable Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The relevant Borrower shall, upon demand from the relevant FCI Issuing Lender, reimburse such FCI Issuing Lender for, and irrevocably and unconditionally indemnify such FCI Issuing Lender against any sum paid or payable in accordance with clause (i) above under an FCI issued by such FCI Issuing Lender at the request of such Borrower and against all other liabilities, reasonable costs (including any costs incurred in funding any amount paid by such FCI Issuing Lender under or in connection with such FCI), claims, losses and expenses which such FCI Issuing Lender may at any time (whether before, on or after the Foreign Trade Maturity Date) reasonably incur or sustain in connection with or arising out of any such FCI. Each such reimbursement shall be made in the currency in which the applicable FCI was issued. If an FCI Issuing Lender shall make any FCI Disbursement, then, unless the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such FCI Disbursement in full on the date such FCI Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such FCI Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such FCI Disbursement, at a fluctuating per annum rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus 1.0%; provided that if such Borrower fails to reimburse such FCI Disbursement within five calendar days (including for any interest incurred in connection with such FCI Disbursement pursuant to the preceding provisions of this sentence), then such entire unpaid amount shall bear interest, for each day from and including the sixth calendar day after the date such FCI Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such FCI Disbursement, at a fluctuating per annum rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus 2.0%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Reversal of FCIs</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Each FCI Issuing Lender will notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on each Business Day about any expiration or reduction of the Face Amount of any FCI or Counter-Guarantee issued by it which became effective the preceding Business Day (a "<u>Utilization Reduction Notice</u>"). With respect to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) an FCI (other than a Counter-Guarantee or an Indirect FCI) which under its terms expires without any doubt if no demand has been received by such FCI Issuing Lender on or before a specified expiry date, such FCI Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice on the Business Day following the effectiveness of the reversal of the FCI, unless such FCI does not qualify for a reversal due to its governing law and/or jurisdiction (in which case clause (B) below shall apply *mutatis mutandis*);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) an FCI (other than a Counter-Guarantee or an Indirect FCI) which, under its terms either does not provide for a specific expiry date or does not otherwise expire without any doubt if no demand for payment has been received by such FCI Issuing Lender on or before a definite expiry date or in the case of a release of an FCI before the expiry date specified therein, such FCI Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice (1) as and when the original of the FCI including all amendments, if any, is received by it from the beneficiary or the relevant Borrower, or (2) after having received any explicit notice of release from the beneficiary in form and substance substantially in accordance with the form provided in <u>Schedule 2.6(i)</u>;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) a Counter-Guarantee, such FCI Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice only upon being unconditionally discharged in writing from any respective liability by the Indirect FCI Issuing Lender, or upon such FCI Issuing Lender having paid the amount available under the Counter-Guarantee to the Indirect FCI Issuing Lender; <u>provided</u> that if the FCI Issuing Lender has been prevented from effecting such payment without delay, the Utilization Reduction Notice is subject to any assertion of damages on account of delay by the Indirect FCI Issuing Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) an FCI (other than a Counter-Guarantee or an Indirect FCI) issued in connection with legal proceedings in Germany, such FCI Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice only upon receipt of the original of the FCI for discharge from the beneficiary or upon the beneficiary's consent to the discharge or upon establishment of the expiry of the FCI by an executory order according to §109(2) of the German Code of Civil Procedure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E) an FCI (other than a Counter-Guarantee or an Indirect FCI), expressly subject to the Uniform Rules for Demand Guarantees, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 758, such FCI Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice if under said rules and due to the governing law and/or jurisdiction of such FCI a termination of a guarantee would have to be made;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(F) an FCI (other than a Counter-Guarantee or an Indirect FCI), expressly subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, 2007 Revision, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 or the International Standby Practices 1998, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 590, such FCI Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice (1) as and when the original of the FCI including all amendments, if any, is being received by it for cancellation from the beneficiary or the relevant Borrower prior to its stated expiration date (if any), or (2) after having received any explicit notice of release from the beneficiary in form and substance substantially in accordance with the form provided in <u>Schedule 2.6(i</u>);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(G) reductions of an FCI or an Indirect FCI/Counter-Guarantee, such FCI Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice only if (1) the terms and conditions of any reduction clause of the terms of the FCI are, without any doubt, complied with or if the beneficiary or, in the case of an Indirect FCI, the Indirect FCI Issuing Lender has certified in writing and unconditionally the reduction of the FCI or Counter-Guarantee respectively or (2) the FCI Issuing Lender has effected partial payment pursuant to a demand; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(H) any FCI in relation to which such FCI Issuing Lender has effected full payment pursuant to a demand so that the beneficiary would not be entitled to claim any further payment, such FCI Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If a claim under an FCI is lodged with the relevant FCI Issuing Lender after such FCI Issuing Lender has given a Utilization Reduction Notice with respect to such FCI:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) such FCI Issuing Lender shall effect payment only if such payment is expressly authorized by the relevant Borrower or ordered by a court decision, enforceable in the country where it was rendered; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the relevant Borrower shall (1) indemnify such FCI Issuing Lender in accordance with <u>Section 2.6(h)</u> and (2) pay to such FCI Issuing Lender an amount (without duplication) equal to the FCI Commitment Fee such FCI Issuing Lender would have received if the relevant FCI or Joint Signature FCI had been outstanding from the date the relevant Utilization Reduction Notice was given until the date payment in respect of such claim is made by such Borrower to the FCI Issuing Lender in accordance with <u>Section 2.6(h)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Permitted Maturity</u>. Each FCI shall have an expiry date that complies with the definition of Permitted Maturity, unless any such FCI does not provide for a specific expiry date, in which case the Commercial Lifetime of such FCI shall fall within the Permitted Maturity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <u>Joint Signature FCIs</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If a Utilization Request has been made for an FCI to be issued as a Joint Signature FCI, then the relevant Borrower will approach the relevant beneficiary to ascertain whether such beneficiary is prepared to accept a Joint Signature FCI. In case of the beneficiary's acceptance, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent will, in close coordination with such Borrower, select the relevant FCI Issuing Lenders (the "<u>Joint FCI Issuing Lenders</u>") prepared to issue the Joint Signature FCI and acceptable to the beneficiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Joint FCI Issuing Lenders so selected will then appoint one of the Joint FCI Issuing Lenders to act as their agent (the "<u>Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent</u>") in connection with the Joint Signature FCI acting on terms to be agreed between the Joint FCI Issuing Lenders and the Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent pursuant to an agreement substantially in the form of <u>Schedule 2.6(k)</u>. The Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be responsible for coordinating the Joint FCI Issuing Lenders and shall represent the Joint FCI Issuing Lenders *vis-à-vis* the beneficiary, and the Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be responsible for processing the Joint Signature FCI. In such capacity, the Joint Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall give to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent the notices otherwise to be given by each FCI Issuing Lender hereunder, in particular under <u>Sections 2.6(i)(i)</u>, <u>2.6(n)(vi)</u> and <u>2.6(q)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Any liability of the Joint FCI Issuing Lenders under a Joint Signature FCI, and the rights resulting from honoring a demand made thereunder, shall be several. Each Joint FCI Issuing Lender shall be responsible for the proportionate amount demanded by the beneficiary under a Joint Signature FCI in the proportion the amount of the Joint Signature FCI allocated to it bears to the total Dollar Equivalent of such Joint Signature FCI. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall, with respect to the determination of the utilization of the individual FCI Issuing Commitment of each Joint FCI Issuing Lender and with respect to the calculation of any Excess Amount, treat each Joint FCI Issuing Lender in the Joint Signature FCI as if each Joint FCI Issuing Lender had issued an FCI in the amount equal to the amount of its proportionate amount of the Joint Signature FCI.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) <u>Determination of Dollar Equivalent</u>. On each Business Day on which any FCI is outstanding under this Agreement, or there is any other FCI Issuing Lender Exposure, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of all outstanding FCIs and unreimbursed FCI Disbursements (in each case adjusted to reflect any repayment, prepayment or reversal of any relevant FCI) on the basis of the foreign exchange rates for the previous Business Day which shall be determined as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if the conversion rate of the respective currency into Dollars is published on the internet page "www.db-markets.com" (on the sub-page "Markets," sub-page "FX Rates," sub-page "DB Fixings" or on any other internet page replacing such internet page), the calculation shall be based on the rates displayed on such internet page; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the conversion rate of the respective currency into Dollars is not published on the internet page "www.db-markets.com" (on the sub-page "Markets," sub-page "FX Rates," sub-page "DB Fixings" or on any other internet page replacing such internet page), the calculation shall be based on the previous month's foreign exchange rates published on the same internet page on the sub-page "DB Fixings" under the heading "Overview for Historic Rates" for "End of month prices".

If the relevant exchange rate cannot be determined in accordance with clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine the appropriate exchange rate in its reasonable discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) <u>Cash Cover</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If, pursuant to a Daily Report issued on the last Business Day of any calendar month (each a "<u>Rebasing Date</u>"), the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the FCI Issuing Lender Exposure of the FCI Issuing Lenders exceeds the aggregate amount of the FCI Issuing Commitments of the FCI Issuing Lenders by more than $500,000 (any such exceeding amount being the "<u>Excess Amount</u>"), the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall notify the FCI Issuing Lenders and the U.S. Borrower in which event each FCI Issuing Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion to request in writing from the U.S. Borrower, within a period of five Business Days following receipt of the respective Daily Report, Cash Cover with respect to the amount by which the Dollar Equivalent of the FCI Issuing Lender Exposure of such FCI Issuing Lender exceeds the aggregate principal amount of such FCI Issuing Commitment of such FCI Issuing Lender, and the U.S. Borrower shall, within a period of four Business Days following receipt of the demand from such FCI Issuing Lender, provide for Cash Cover in accordance with clause (iv) below. For the avoidance of doubt, this clause (i) shall be applicable even to the extent any such Excess Amount results, in whole or in part, from fluctuation of currency exchange rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If in respect of any Rebasing Date subsequent to a Rebasing Date in respect of which Cash Cover had been provided pursuant to clause (i) above to the applicable FCI Issuing Lender(s), the Excess Amount (as shown in the relevant Daily Report) has been reduced to zero (either through fluctuation of currency exchange rates or through the reduction or expiration of any FCIs), then the applicable FCI Issuing Lender(s) shall release the whole or relevant part of the Cash Cover within three Business Days of the relevant Rebasing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) If a Borrower is obliged to provide for Cash Cover under this Agreement, such Borrower shall pay the relevant amount for which it shall provide Cash Cover in Dollars or in the Dollar Equivalent of the currency of the respective FCI for which Cash Cover has to be provided to an account of the applicable FCI Issuing Lender(s), in the name of such Borrower or the U.S. Borrower (at the election of the U.S. Borrower), to be maintained for the benefit of the applicable FCI Issuing Lender(s) (such deposited amount, the "<u>Cash Cover</u>"). Such account shall be an interest-bearing account in the name of such Borrower or the U.S. Borrower (at the election of the U.S. Borrower) and such account shall be pledged to the applicable FCI Issuing Lender(s), as the case may be, on the basis of a pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the applicable FCI Issuing Lender(s), as the case may be, and such Borrower or the U.S. Borrower, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be required to deposit cash in support of any obligation of any other Borrower and no collateral or other credit support provided by any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall serve as security for any obligation of any other Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) If the term of any FCI extends beyond the Foreign Trade Maturity Date or other termination of this Agreement, including if any obligation of any FCI Issuing Lender with respect to any FCI governed by the laws of the People's Republic of China or any other Governmental Authority extends beyond the Foreign Trade Maturity Date or other termination of this Agreement (including any obligation in respect of any claims period under any FCI that extends beyond the stated expiration date of such FCI), then the applicable Borrower shall, on the earlier of the Foreign Trade Maturity Date or the date of such other termination of this Agreement, do one of the following: (A) cause such FCI to be surrendered for cancellation to the applicable FCI Issuing Lender or (B) provide Cash Cover (or other credit support reasonably satisfactory) to the applicable FCI Issuing Lender in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Dollar Equivalent of the Face Amount of such FCI or (C) provide the applicable FCI Issuing Lender with a back-up letter of credit or other analogous undertaking on reasonably acceptable terms and conditions in an amount at least equal to 103% of the Dollar Equivalent of the Face Amount of such FCI from a financial institution approved by the applicable FCI Issuing Lender or Joint FCI Issuing Lender, if applicable (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in accordance with such FCI Issuing Lender's or Joint FCI Issuing Lender's existing banking practice consistently applied). Upon notice to the applicable FCI Issuing Lender of the termination, reduction or expiration (without any pending drawing) of such FCI, the applicable FCI Issuing Lender shall release the whole or relevant part of the Cash Cover (or other credit back-stop) within three Business Days of the relevant date of termination, reduction or expiration, and the applicable FCI Issuing Lender shall use Cash Cover to promptly reimburse any honoring any FCI.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) <u>Fees; Termination</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>FCI Commitment Fees</u>. The U.S. Borrower agrees to pay (or to cause a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to pay) to each FCI Issuing Lender, a commitment fee (the "<u>FCI Commitment Fee</u>") which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate (unless another rate shall have been agreed in writing between the U.S. Borrower and the applicable FCI Issuing Lender) on the average daily unused amount of the FCI Issuing Commitment of such FCI Issuing Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such FCI Issuing Commitment terminates. Accrued FCI Commitment Fees shall be paid quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the FCI Issuing Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. FCI Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>FCI Fee</u>. The U.S. Borrower agrees to pay (or to cause a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to pay) to each FCI Issuing Lender, a fee (the "<u>FCI Fee</u>") with respect to its issuance of FCIs, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate (or such other rate as may be agreed in writing from time to time between the U.S. Borrower and the applicable FCI Issuing Lender) on the average daily Face Amount of each such FCI issued by such FCI Issuing Lender and outstanding (i.e. unexpired and not terminated) during the period from and including the date of issuance of any such FCI hereunder and the termination of any such Joint Signature FCI; <u>provided</u> that any such FCI Fees payable to any FCI Issuing Lender in respect of Trade LCs shall be reduced by the amount of any related FCI Commitment Fee payable in respect of the FCI Issuing Commitment of such FCI Issuing Lender utilized by the issuance of such Trade LCs. Accrued FCI Fees shall be paid quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the FCI Issuing Commitment terminates. FCI Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>FCI Handling Fee</u>. Each Borrower shall, with respect to the issuance or amendment of any FCI by an FCI Issuing Lender, pay to such FCI Issuing Lender, quarterly in arrears in accordance with clause (v) below, a handling fee of $150 with respect to each FCI so issued, and $100 with respect to each FCI so amended, by such FCI Issuing Lender during the previous calendar quarter (the "<u>FCI Handling Fee</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Other Fees and Expenses</u>. Each Borrower shall, within three Business Days following written demand from an FCI Issuing Lender that has issued an FCI for such Borrower, reimburse such FCI Issuing Lender for all reasonable costs (including internal costs) and expenses (including legal fees) incurred by such FCI Issuing Lender and evidenced to such Borrower in connection with the handling of any claims made against such FCI Issuing Lender under any FCI issued by it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>Payment of Foreign Credit Fees</u>. Each FCI Issuing Lender shall notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in writing about the amount of all FCI Handling Fees payable by any Borrower with respect to each previous calendar quarter not later than on the fifth Business Day of each calendar quarter. In the case of each FCI Issuing Lender, the notification needs to include only the sum of all such fees payable to such FCI Issuing Lender and the respective amounts owing from each Borrower. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall, not later than the seventh Business Day of each calendar quarter, inform the U.S. Borrower in writing about the aggregate amount of the FCI Handling Fee, as notified to it by the FCI Issuing Lenders pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (v), and the U.S. Borrower shall pay (or shall cause the relevant Borrower to pay) such amounts to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent for distribution to the FCI Issuing Lenders not later than the fifth Business Day following the receipt by the U.S. Borrower of the notification from the Foreign Trade Facility Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) <u>Termination.</u> (A) With respect to each FCI issued and which is or under which claims are still outstanding (including any FCI in respect of which the applicable FCI Issuing Lender may be or become obligated for any claims made under such FCI after the stated expiration date of such FCI) on the earlier of (1) the Foreign Trade Maturity Date or (2) the date of termination or cancellation of the FCI Issuing Commitments, or (B) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the request of the majority of the FCI Issuing Lenders to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the U.S. Borrower or other relevant Borrower will on such applicable date provide to either the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or the applicable FCI Issuing Lender(s) (at the election of the U.S. Borrower) Cash Cover or other credit support reasonably satisfactory to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or the applicable FCI Issuing Lender(s), as the case may be, in an amount equal to at least 103% of the Face Amount of all such FCIs. <u>Section 2.6(m)(iv)</u> shall apply *mutatis mutandis*; <u>provided</u> that for purposes of the foregoing clause (B), if any Event of Default shall have occurred and any determination needs to be made by the majority of FCI Issuing Lenders under <u>Article VII</u> whether or not to require Cash Cover or other credit support, any FCI Issuing Lender shall be excluded for purposes of making a determination of such majority FCI Issuing Lenders if such FCI Issuing Lender notifies the Foreign Trade Facility Agent that in the good faith judgment of such FCI Issuing Lender failing to so exclude such amounts for such FCI Issuing Lender would or might violate the German Foreign Trade Act (*Außenwirtschaftsgesetz*) or EU Regulation (EC) 2271/96.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) <u>Cancellation</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The U.S. Borrower may, by giving to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, not less than 3 Business Days' prior written notice, cancel the whole or any part (being a minimum of $10,000,000, or a lesser amount in the case of the cancellation of the entire remaining amount of any FCI Issuing Lender's FCI Issuing Commitment) of the then unused FCI Issuing Commitments without premium or penalty (it being understood and agreed that any cancellation of an FCI Issuing Commitment need not be done on a pro rata basis).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If any FCI Issuing Lender claims a payment or indemnification from any Borrower under <u>Section 2.17</u>, the U.S. Borrower may (without prejudice to such claim), within 30 days thereafter and by not less than 15 days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, cancel such FCI Issuing Lender's unused FCI Issuing Commitment whereupon such FCI Issuing Lender shall cease to be obligated to issue further FCIs and its unused FCI Issuing Commitment shall be reduced to zero. The remaining amount of such FCI Issuing Lender's FCI Issuing Commitment shall be cancelled automatically in whole, or, as the case may be, in part with the receipt by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent of the Utilization Reduction Notice(s) with respect to the FCIs issued by such FCI Issuing Lender and still outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Any notice of cancellation given by the U.S. Borrower pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date upon which such cancellation is to be made and the amount of such cancellation; <u>provided</u> that any such notice of cancellation delivered by the U.S. Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness or closing of other credit facilities, debt financings or Dispositions, in which case such notice may be revoked or the date specified therein extended by the U.S. Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Cancelled FCI Issuing Commitments cannot be reinstated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) <u>Reports</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall send to the FCI Issuing Lenders, the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent, via e-mail to the addresses and persons notified for this purpose by such Persons to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) on each Business Day, a report (the "<u>Daily Report</u>")

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) stating the Dollar Equivalent for all outstanding FCIs (other than Trade LCs) outstanding as determined for such Business Day,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) listing, for each FCI Issuing Lender, as of such Business Day, the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding FCIs (other than Trade LCs) issued by such FCI Issuing Lender and the Dollar Equivalent of each such FCI Issuing Lender's utilized FCI Issuing Commitment (without giving effect to the issuance of any Trade LCs), and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) containing further information about the utilization of the Foreign Trade Facility (without giving effect to the issuance of any Trade LCs), in substantially the form set out in <u>Schedule 2.6(p)</u>,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) on each Business Day, a daily activity report of the previous Business Day, in a form as substantially set out in <u>Schedule 2.6(p)</u>, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) not later than the fifth Business Day of each calendar month, a report stating all expired FCIs and all FCIs expiring within such month, in each case, without giving effect to the issuance of any Trade LCs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The U.S. Borrower and each FCI Issuing Lender shall inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent by 5:00 p.m., Düsseldorf time, on the fifth Business Day following receipt of any such report if it does not agree with any information contained in such report.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The applicable Borrowers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve the return of expired FCIs to the applicable FCI Issuing Lenders and the applicable FCI Issuing Lenders shall (at the applicable Borrower's cost and expense) use commercially reasonable efforts to support the applicable Borrower's efforts to achieve such return.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) <u>Unreimbursed FCI Disbursements</u>. Each FCI Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent of any FCI Disbursement of such FCI Issuing Lender that has not been reimbursed by or on behalf of the relevant Borrower and shall include in such notice (i) the date of the FCI Disbursement, (ii) the name of the relevant Borrower and (iii) the amount (including the currency) of such FCI Disbursement and the Dollar Equivalent thereof as calculated by such FCI Issuing Lender in accordance with this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) <u>Additional FCI Issuing Lenders</u>. Upon notice to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the U.S. Borrower may designate additional FCI Issuing Lenders to provide additional FCI Issuing Commitments hereunder and/or designate existing FCI Issuing Lenders to provide an increase to its existing FCI Issuing Commitment hereunder. No Person shall have any obligation hereunder to become such an additional FCI Issuing Lender or to provide any such additional or increased FCI Issuing Commitment. The FCI Issuing Lender or other Person that in its sole discretion agrees to provide any such increased or additional FCI Issuing Commitment shall enter into an FCI Issuing Lender Joinder Agreement with completions reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the U.S. Borrower. No such designation shall be made to (i) the Parent, the U.S. Borrower, any Affiliate of the Parent or the U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary or (ii) a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, one or more natural persons). Upon consummation of any such FCI Issuing Lender Joinder Agreement, <u>Schedule 1.1A</u> shall be deemed revised to reflect the applicable FCI Issuing Commitment added pursuant to such FCI Issuing Lender Joinder Agreement. If all the conditions precedent to issuance of a new FCI are satisfied, then in lieu of issuing a new FCI, such additional FCI Issuing Lender may, at the written request of the U.S. Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and with the written consent of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, roll into the Foreign Trade Facility an outstanding undertaking that meets all of the requirements to be an FCI hereunder, in which case such undertaking shall thereafter be treated as if it were issued hereunder, and such FCI Issuing Lender shall be deemed to represent and warrant that each such FCI that is rolled into the Foreign Trade Facility complies with <u>Section 2.6(c)</u>, <u>Section 2.6(d)</u>, <u>Section 2.6(e)</u> and <u>Section 2.6(f)</u>, as applicable.

**<u>Section 2.7</u>** <u>Funding of Borrowings.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan (other than any Incremental Term Loan) to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the Administrative Agent's Office for the applicable currency most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, in immediately available funds, not later than 1:00 p.m. in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency; <u>provided</u> that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in <u>Section 2.4</u>. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the relevant Borrower by wiring the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; <u>provided</u> that (i) ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of a Financial LC Disbursement as provided in <u>Section 2.5(e)(i)</u> shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Lender and (ii) ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of a Non-Financial LC Disbursement as provided in <u>Section 2.5(e)(i)</u> shall be remitted by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent to the applicable Issuing Lender. Any funding of Incremental Term Loans shall be made pursuant to such procedures as shall be agreed to by the U.S. Borrower, the relevant Incremental Term Lenders and the Administrative Agent. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to <u>Section 9.3(c)</u> are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under <u>Section 9.3(c)</u> 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, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under <u>Section 9.3(c)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with <u>Section 2.7(a)</u> and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount in the required currency. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and such Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon in such currency, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing.

**<u>Section 2.8</u>** <u>Interest Elections.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Revolving Borrowing, each Term Loan A Borrowing and each Incremental Term Loan Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, a Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Borrower may not (i) elect to convert the currency in which any Loans are denominated, (ii) elect to convert Alternative Currencies Loans to ABR Loans or Term SOFR Loans, (iii) elect an Interest Period for Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans that does not comply with <u>Section 2.2(d)</u>, (iv) elect to convert any ABR Loans to Term SOFR Loans that would result in the number of Borrowings exceeding the maximum number of Borrowings permitted under <u>Section 2.2(c)</u>, (v) elect an Interest Period for Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans unless the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Loans (including any such Loans made to such Borrower in the same currency on the date that such Interest Period is to begin) to which such Interest Period will apply complies with the requirements as to minimum principal amount set forth in <u>Section 2.2(c)</u> or (vi) elect to convert or continue any Swingline Borrowings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under <u>Section 2.3</u> if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of Revolving Loans 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 delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the relevant Borrower. Any Interest Election Request with respect to Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, three or six months in duration shall be subject to the same notice and Lender approval requirements as the initial Borrowing thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with <u>Section 2.3</u> and <u>Section 2.8(a)</u>: (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies; (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, a Term SOFR Borrowing, an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Borrowing, or an Alternative Currency Term Rate Borrowing, as applicable; and (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election. If any such Interest Election Request requests a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans but does not specify an Interest Period, then the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans 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 converted to an ABR Borrowing. If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Borrowing of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans 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 automatically continue as a Borrowing of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans having an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the U.S. Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing denominated in Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans, (ii) unless repaid, each Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) no Borrowing of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans having an Interest Period in excess of one month may be made or continued. No Alternative Currency Loan may be converted into or continued as a Revolving Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be repaid in the original currency of such Alternative Currency Loan and reborrowed in the other currency.

**<u>Section 2.9</u>** <u>Termination and Reduction of Commitments.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If not terminated prior to such date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (A) the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date, (B) the FCI Issuing Commitments shall terminate on the Foreign Trade Maturity Date and (C) the Term Loan A Commitments shall terminate on the Third Amendment Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The U.S. Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; <u>provided</u> that (i) each reduction of the Commitments (other than FCI Issuing Commitments) of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000, (ii) the U.S. Borrower shall not terminate or reduce (A) the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with <u>Section 2.12</u>, the Revolving Exposure would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, or (B) the FCI Issuing Commitments if the Total Foreign Trade Exposure would exceed the total FCI Issuing Commitments and (iii) each termination or reduction of FCI Issuing Commitments shall be made in accordance with <u>Section 2.6(o)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The U.S. Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under <u>Section 2.9(b)</u> 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 U.S. Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; <u>provided</u> that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the U.S. Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness or closing of other credit facilities, debt financings or Dispositions, in which case such notice may be revoked or the date specified therein extended by the U.S. Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

**<u>Section 2.10</u>** <u>Evidence of Debt.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) 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, and each FCI issued, by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall maintain the Register pursuant to <u>Section 9.4(c)</u> and a subaccount for each Lender in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder (whether or not evidenced by a promissory note), the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal and/or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender's share thereof. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall maintain records in which it shall record all relevant details about each FCI issued hereunder and, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall make such records (or copies thereof) available to the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The entries made in the Register maintained pursuant to <u>Section 2.10(b)</u> shall be *prima facie* evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; <u>provided</u> that the failure of the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, each Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a promissory note, which shall evidence such Lender's Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each such promissory note shall (i) in the case of Revolving Loans, be in the form of <u>Exhibit I</u> (a "<u>Revolving Note</u>"), (ii) in the case of the Term Loan A, be in the form of <u>Exhibit K</u> (a "<u>Term A Note</u>"), (iii) in the case of Swingline Loans, be in the form of <u>Exhibit L</u> (a "<u>Swingline Note</u>") and (iv) in the case of Incremental Term Loans, be in the form of <u>Exhibit M</u> (an "<u>Incremental Term Note</u>"). Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

**<u>Section 2.11</u>** <u>Repayment of Loans.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The U.S. Borrower shall repay any Incremental Term Loans in consecutive installments (which shall be no more frequent than quarterly) as specified in the applicable Incremental Facility Activation Notice pursuant to which such Incremental Term Loans were made; <u>provided</u> that the weighted average life to maturity of any Incremental Term Loans shall not be shorter than the then-remaining weighted average life to maturity of any then-existing Term Loans; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that, the limitation in the immediately preceding proviso shall not apply to bridge Indebtedness incurred by the U.S. Borrower, so long as (i)(x) at the initial maturity of such bridge Indebtedness, such bridge Indebtedness shall automatically convert to (or would be required to be exchanged for) Indebtedness that complies with the limitation in the immediately preceding proviso, or (y) such bridge Indebtedness is incurred with the intent to convert such bridge Indebtedness to permanent financing that complies with the limitation in the immediately preceding proviso, and (ii) the only prepayments required to be made on such bridge Indebtedness shall be such prepayments as are customary for similar bridge financings in light of then-prevailing market conditions (as determined by the U.S. Borrower in consultation with the Administrative Agent).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The U.S. Borrower shall repay (i) the then unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans on the Revolving Maturity Date and (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the last Business Day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; <u>provided</u> that on each date that a Borrowing of Revolving Loans is made, the U.S. Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The U.S. Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan A in quarterly installments on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, in each case, in the respective amounts set forth in the table below (as such installments may hereafter be adjusted as a result of prepayments made pursuant to <u>Section 2.12</u>) with the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan A due in full on the Term Loan A Maturity Date, unless accelerated sooner pursuant to <u>Article VII</u>:

**<u>Section 2.12</u>** <u>Prepayment of Loans.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Loan Prepayment, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty subject to <u>Section 2.18</u>; <u>provided</u> that, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent: (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) two (2) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Term SOFR Loans, (B) four (4) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment of Alternative Currency Loans, and (C) on the date of prepayment of ABR Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Loans shall be in a principal amount of $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of ABR Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date, the currency and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender's ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender's Applicable Percentage in respect of the relevant Facility). If such notice is given by a Borrower, such Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of principal shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to <u>Section 2.18</u>. Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this <u>Section 2.12(a)</u> shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof as directed by the U.S. Borrower. Subject to <u>Section 2.24</u>, such prepayments shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages in respect of each of the relevant Facilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The U.S. Borrower may, upon notice to the Swingline Lender pursuant to delivery to the Swingline Lender of a Notice of Loan Prepayment (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swingline Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; <u>provided</u> that, unless otherwise agreed by the Swingline Lender, (i) such notice must be received by the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess hereof (or, if less, the entire principal thereof then outstanding). Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the U.S. Borrower, the U.S. Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of principal shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to <u>Section 2.18</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If on any date any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event, the U.S. Borrower shall, within ten Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, apply an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Net Proceeds, <u>first</u>, to prepay the Term Loans in the manner and the order as directed in writing by the U.S. Borrower to the Administrative Agent (<u>provided</u> that in the case of any excess cash flow mandatory prepayment required in connection with any Incremental Term Loans as permitted under <u>Section 2.1(b)</u>, such prepayment shall be applied ratably to all Term Loans and to the principal repayment installments thereof on a pro rata basis), and <u>second</u>, after the Term Loans have been paid in full, to the Revolving Loans as directed in writing by the U.S. Borrower to the Administrative Agent (without a corresponding permanent reduction in the aggregate Revolving Commitments); <u>provided</u> that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) or clause (b) of the definition of the term Prepayment Event, if the U.S. Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer of the U.S. Borrower to the effect that the Parent or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary intends to apply the Net Proceeds from such event ("<u>Reinvestment Net Proceeds</u>") within 365 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds, to make Permitted Acquisitions or Investments permitted by <u>Section 6.5</u> or acquire real property, equipment or other assets to be used in the business of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries, and certifying that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of such event except to the extent of any Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of such 365-day period (or, with respect to Net Proceeds which are committed to be reinvested within such 365-day period, except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds that have not been actually reinvested within 180 days after the end of such 365-day period), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds that have not been so applied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If on any Determination Date relating to the Revolving Facility, (i) the Total Exposure exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments by more than $500,000 due to a fluctuation in currency exchanges, the U.S. Borrower shall, upon notice by the Administrative Agent, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, prepay (or cause the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to prepay) Borrowings of Alternative Currency Loans (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral pursuant to <u>Section 2.5(j)(ii)</u> with respect to Alternative Currency Letters of Credit and otherwise in a manner mutually agreed among the U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent) in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the Total Exposure does not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, (ii) the Total Exposure exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments, the U.S. Borrower shall, without notice or demand, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, prepay Borrowings of Revolving Loans or Swingline Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral pursuant to <u>Section 2.5(j)(ii)</u> and otherwise in a manner mutually agreed among the U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent) in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the Total Exposure does not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, and (iii) the aggregate outstanding amount of all Alternative Currency Loans on such Determination Date, <u>plus</u> the aggregate face amount of all Alternative Currency Letters of Credit on such Determination Date, <u>plus</u> the aggregate outstanding amount of all Revolving Loans made to Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers on such Determination Date, exceeds an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the Global Sublimit then in effect, the U.S. Borrower shall, upon notice by the Administrative Agent, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, prepay (or cause the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to prepay) Borrowings of Alternative Currency Loans, Borrowings of Revolving Loans made to Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers and/or deposit cash collateral pursuant to <u>Section 2.5(j)(ii)</u> with respect to Alternative Currency Letters of Credit and otherwise in a manner mutually agreed among the U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate outstanding amount of all Alternative Currency Loans, <u>plus</u> the aggregate face amount of all Alternative Currency Letters of Credit, <u>plus</u> the aggregate outstanding amount of all Revolving Loans made to Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers, does not exceed an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Global Sublimit then in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) A Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy promptly thereafter) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans, not later than 11:00 a.m. two Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of a Borrowing of Alternative Currency Loans, no later than 11:00 a.m. four Business Days before the date of prepayment, (iii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day of prepayment or (iv) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; <u>provided</u> that, if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by <u>Section 2.9</u>, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked (or the date specified therein extended) if such notice of termination is revoked (or the date specified therein extended) in accordance with <u>Section 2.9</u>. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in <u>Section 2.2</u>, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment.

**<u>Section 2.13</u>** <u>Certain Payment Application Matters.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each repayment or prepayment of a Borrowing by any Borrower shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing of such Borrower. It is understood that, in the case of Revolving Loans, the relevant Borrower may select the particular currency of Loans to be prepaid, and such prepayment shall then be applied ratably to such Loans. Repayments and prepayments of Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each mandatory prepayment of any Term Loans shall be applied among the Classes of the Term Loans as directed in writing by the U.S. Borrower to the Administrative Agent and to the installments thereof in each case in the order as directed in writing by the U.S. Borrower to the Administrative Agent. Any optional prepayment of any Term Loans shall be applied to the installments of the applicable Term Loans in each case in the order as directed in writing by the U.S. Borrower to the Administrative Agent.

**<u>Section 2.14</u>** <u>Fees.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The U.S. Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee (the "<u>Revolving Commitment Fee</u>"), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the actual daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Revolving Maturity Date. Accrued Revolving Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the Revolving Maturity Date commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. Revolving Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing Revolving Commitment Fees, the Revolving Commitment of a Revolving Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans of such Revolving Lender, the Financial LC Exposure of such Revolving Lender and the Non-Financial LC Exposure of such Revolving Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Revolving Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Borrower agrees to pay:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Financial Letters of Credit ("<u>Financial Letter of Credit Fees</u>"), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the actual daily amount of such Lender's Financial LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed Financial LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender's Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Financial LC Exposure; <u>provided</u> that any Financial Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Financial Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided cash collateral satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to <u>Section 2.5(j)(i)</u> shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable laws, to the other Revolving Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Financial Letter of Credit pursuant to <u>Section 2.24(a)(iv)</u>, with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Non-Financial Letters of Credit ("<u>Non-Financial Letter of Credit Fees</u>"), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the actual daily amount of such Lender's Non-Financial LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed Non-Financial LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender's Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Non-Financial LC Exposure; <u>provided</u> that any Non-Financial Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Non-Financial Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided cash collateral satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to <u>Section 2.5(j)(ii)</u> shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable laws, to the other Revolving Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Non-Financial Letter of Credit pursuant to <u>Section 2.24(a)(iv)</u>, with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) to the applicable Issuing Lender a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of (A) with respect to Financial Letters of Credit, 0.125% per annum on the actual daily amount of the Financial LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed Financial 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 Financial LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Lender's standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Financial Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder, and (B) with respect to Non-Financial Letters of Credit, 0.250% per annum on the actual daily amount of the Non-Financial LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed Non-Financial 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 Non-Financial LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Lender's standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of any Non-Financial Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) to the applicable FCI Issuing Lender, the fees set forth in <u>Section 2.6(n)</u>.

Participation fees and fronting fees pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above 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; <u>provided</u> 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. Except as otherwise provided in <u>Section 2.6(n)</u>, any other fees payable to the applicable Issuing Lender or FCI Issuing Lender pursuant to this <u>Section 2.14(b)</u> shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For the purposes of calculating the actual daily amount of the Financial LC Exposure or Non-Financial LC Exposure for any period under this <u>Section 2.14(b)</u>, the actual daily amount of the Alternative Currency Financial LC Exposure or Alternative Currency Non-Financial LC Exposure for such period shall be calculated by multiplying (x) the actual daily balance of each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (expressed in the currency in which such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is denominated) by (y) the Exchange Rate for each such Alternative Currency in effect on the last Business Day of such period or by such other reasonable method that the Administrative Agent deems appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The U.S. Borrower agrees to pay to BofA Securities, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed in writing between or among the Parent, the U.S. Borrower and BofA Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The U.S. Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The U.S. Borrower agrees to pay to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times specified in the Deutsche Bank Fee Letter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to BofA Securities, the applicable Issuing Lender, the applicable FCI Issuing Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Except as otherwise provided in <u>Section 2.6(n)</u>, fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

**<u>Section 2.15</u>** <u>Interest.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to <u>Section 2.15(c)</u>: (i) ABR Loans and Swingline Loans shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate <u>plus</u> the Applicable Rate applicable to ABR Loans; (ii) Term SOFR Loans shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR for such Interest Period <u>plus</u> the Applicable Rate for Term SOFR Loans; (iii) Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loans shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Alternative Currency Daily Rate <u>plus</u> the Applicable Rate for Alternative Currency Loans; and (iv) Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Alternative Currency Term Rate for such Interest Period <u>plus</u> the Applicable Rate for Alternative Currency Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest (or premium, if any) on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% <u>plus</u> 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 (except as specified in <u>Section 2.6(h)(ii)</u>), 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in <u>Section 2.15(a)</u> (or, in the case of amounts denominated in any Alternative Currency under the Revolving Facility, the rate that would apply to Loans in such currency pursuant to clause (i) above), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments, and in the case of the Term Loans, upon the Term Loan A Maturity Date or the Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, as applicable; <u>provided</u> that (i) interest accrued pursuant to <u>Section 2.15(c)</u> 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 Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest (and premium, if any) 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 Term SOFR Loan or Alternative Currency Term Rate 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) All computations of interest for ABR Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All computations of interest for Alternative Currency Loans shall be made on the basis of a year as set forth on <u>Schedule 2.15(e)</u> for such Alternative Currency and actual days elapsed. All other computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; <u>provided</u> that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to <u>Section 2.20(a)</u>, bear interest for one day. The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Alternative Currency Daily Rate, Alternative Currency Term Rate or Term SOFR, as applicable, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Parent or for any other reason, the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Loan Parties as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher interest and fees for such period, the U.S. Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the U.S. Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by any Person), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, under <u>Section 2.5(c)</u>, <u>Section 2.14(b)</u>, <u>Section 2.14(f)</u> or <u>Section 2.15(c)</u> or under <u>Article VII</u>. The U.S. Borrower's obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments of all of the Lenders and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever a rate of interest or fee rate hereunder is calculated on the basis of a year (the "deemed year") that contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest or fee rate shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest or fee rate by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year, (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any interest calculation hereunder and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated herein are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

**<u>Section 2.16</u>** <u>Inability to Determine Rates.</u>

If in connection with any request for a Term SOFR Loan or an Alternative Currency Loan, or a request for a conversion of ABR Loans to Term SOFR Loans, or a request for a continuation of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, as applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i)(A) no Term SOFR Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with <u>Section 1.10(a)</u> and the circumstances under <u>Section 1.10(a)(i)</u> or the Term SOFR Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred, (B) no Successor Rate for the applicable Relevant Rate has been determined in accordance with <u>Section 1.10(b)</u> and the circumstances under <u>Section 1.10(b)(i)</u> or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred, as applicable, or (C) adequate and reasonable means do not otherwise exist for determining Term SOFR or the applicable Relevant Rate, as applicable, for any determination date(s) or requested Interest Period, as applicable, with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan or Alternative Currency Loan, or in connection with an existing or proposed ABR Loan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that Term SOFR or the applicable Relevant Rate, as applicable, for any determination dates(s) or requested Interest Period, as applicable, do not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining the applicable Loans (or its Loan) included in the relevant Borrowing for such determination date(s) or Interest Period; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that a fundamental change has occurred in the foreign exchange or interbank markets with respect to any Alternative Currency (including changes in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls);

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the U.S. Borrower and the relevant Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the applicable Lenders to make or maintain Term SOFR Loans or the applicable Alternative Currency Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans, Alternative Currency Loans, Interest Periods or determination date(s), as applicable), and (y) in the event of a determination described above with respect to the Term SOFR component of the Alternate Base Rate, the utilization of the Term SOFR component in determining the Alternate Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in clause (b) above, until the Administrative Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (1) the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of the applicable Loans (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans, Alternative Currency Loans, Interest Periods or determination date(s), as applicable) or, failing that, with respect to any request for a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Term SOFR Loans, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for an ABR Borrowing, (2) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Loans shall be converted to ABR Loans at the end of their respective applicable Interest Periods, and (3) any outstanding affected Alternative Currency Loans shall be prepaid in full (such prepayment to occur on the next applicable Interest Payment Dates, in the case of Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loans, or at the end of the applicable Interest Periods, in the case of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans).

**<u>Section 2.17</u>** <u>Increased Costs.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any Change in Law shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) subject any Lender or an Agent to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Excluded Taxes or (C) Taxes imposed as a penalty for a Lender's failure to comply with non-U.S. legislation implementing FATCA) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) impose on any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any FCI Issuing Lender or the relevant interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Loans made by such Lender, any Letter of Credit (or any participation therein) or any FCI;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the net cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such FCI Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or FCI or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such FCI Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest, premium or otherwise), then each relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such FCI Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such FCI Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs actually incurred or reduction suffered; <u>provided</u> that such Lender shall only be entitled to seek such additional amounts if such Lender is generally seeking the payment of similar additional amounts from similarly situated borrowers in comparable credit facilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any FCI Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Person's capital or on the capital of such Person's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or FCIs held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, or the FCIs issued by such FCI Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such FCI Issuing Lender or such Lender's, such Issuing Lender's or such FCI Issuing Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Person's policies and the policies of such Person's holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such FCI Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Person or such Person's holding company for any such reduction actually suffered; <u>provided</u> that such Lender shall only be entitled to seek such additional amounts if such Lender is generally seeking the payment of similar additional amounts from similarly situated borrowers in comparable credit facilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any FCI Issuing Lender incurs any Mandatory Costs attributable to the Obligations, then from time to time the U.S. Borrower will pay (or cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to pay) to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such FCI Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such Mandatory Costs. Such amount shall be expressed as a percentage rate per annum and shall be payable on the full amount of the applicable Obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) A certificate of a Lender, an Issuing Lender or an FCI Issuing Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and computation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Person or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in <u>Section 2.17(a)</u>, <u>Section 2.17(b)</u> or <u>Section 2.17(c)</u> shall be delivered to the relevant Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Such Borrower shall pay such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such FCI Issuing Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. All amounts payable by any Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.17(a)</u> or <u>Section 2.17(b)</u> shall be deemed to constitute interest expense in respect of the Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any FCI Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Person's right to demand such compensation; <u>provided</u> that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender, an Issuing Lender or an FCI Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Person notifies such Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Person's intention to claim compensation therefor; <u>provided</u> <u>further</u> 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.

**<u>Section 2.18</u>** <u>Break Funding Payments.</u>

In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Term SOFR Loan or Alternative Currency Term 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 Term SOFR Loan or Alternative Currency Term Rate 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, all or any portion of the Term Loan A, or any Incremental Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under <u>Section 2.12(d)</u> and is revoked in accordance therewith), (d) the assignment of any Term SOFR Loan or any Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the U.S. Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.21</u> or (e) any failure by the U.S. Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to make payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency, then, in any such event, the relevant Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense actually incurred that is attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the applicable rate of interest that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the relevant market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and computation of any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the relevant Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and shall be so delivered as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Lender obtains actual knowledge of such amount.

**<u>Section 2.19</u>** <u>Taxes.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes; <u>provided</u> that if a Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, 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 relevant Agent or the relevant Lender 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and indemnify the Lender from and against any Other Taxes and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Borrower shall indemnify each Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by such Agent or such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such recipient (including Indemnified 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 were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and computation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by a Lender, or by an Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and shall be so delivered as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, obtains actual knowledge of such amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the relevant 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 such Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each Agent and each Lender that is not a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a "<u>Non-U.S. Recipient</u>") shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the U.S. Borrower and each Agent, on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) two duly completed and signed original copies of either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (including Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable) or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (relating to such Non-U.S. Recipient and entitling it to a complete exemption from or reduction of withholding of United States federal income taxes on all amounts to be received by such Non-U.S. Recipient pursuant to this Agreement and the other credit documents), or successor and related applicable forms, as the case may be (including, where applicable any such forms required to be provided to certify to such exemption on behalf of such Non-U.S. Recipient's beneficial owners); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Recipient claiming the benefit of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a statement in the form of <u>Exhibit C</u> (and any similar statements required to certify to the exemption of its beneficial owners) or such other form of statement as shall be reasonably requested by the U.S. Borrower from time to time to the effect that such Non-U.S. Recipient (and, where applicable, its beneficial owners) is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of United States federal income taxes under Code Section 871(h) or 881(c), and (y) two duly completed and signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or W-8BEN-E) or successor and related applicable forms (including, where applicable, copies of such forms with respect to such entity's beneficial owners).

Further, each Non-U.S. Recipient agrees (i) to deliver to the U.S. Borrower and each Agent, and if applicable, the assigning Lender two further duly completed and signed original copies of such Forms W-8BEN (or W-8BEN-E) or W-8ECI, as the case may be (and, where applicable, any such forms on behalf of its beneficial owners) or successor and related applicable forms, on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete and promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change from the most recent form(s) previously delivered by it to the U.S. Borrower in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations, (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Recipient that delivers a statement in the form of <u>Exhibit C</u> (or such other form of statement as shall have been requested by the U.S. Borrower), to deliver to the U.S. Borrower and each Agent, and if applicable, the assigning Lender, such statement (and where applicable, any such statements from its beneficial owners) on the two year anniversary of the date on which such Non-U.S. Recipient became a party to this Agreement and to deliver promptly to the U.S. Borrower and each Agent, such additional statements and forms as shall be reasonably requested by the U.S. Borrower or such Agent from time to time, and (iii) to notify promptly the U.S. Borrower and each Agent if it (or, as applicable, its beneficial owners) is no longer able to deliver, or if it is required to withdraw or cancel, any form of statement previously delivered by it pursuant to this <u>Section 2.19(e)</u>. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Non-U.S. Recipient shall be required to provide any forms, certification or documentation which it is not legally entitled or able to deliver.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Each Agent that is a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code and each Lender which is not a Non-U.S. Recipient shall deliver to U.S. Borrower and each Agent (and if applicable the assigning or participating Lender) two duly completed and signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) certifying that such party is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. Each Agent and each such Lender shall deliver to the U.S. Borrower and each Agent two further duly completed and signed forms (or successor form) at or before the time any such form becomes obsolete.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) If any Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by a Borrower, it shall promptly pay such refund, together with any other amounts paid by such Borrower in connection with such refunded Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, to such Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in obtaining such refund; <u>provided</u> that each Borrower agrees to promptly return such refund to the applicable Agent or the applicable Lender as the case may be, if it receives notice from the applicable Agent or applicable Lender that such Agent or Lender is required to repay such refund. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information that it deems confidential) to the applicable Borrower or any Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If any Agent or any Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in the rate of the imposition, deduction or withholding of any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax under the laws of the jurisdiction in which a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized or engaged in business, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then such Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) shall deliver to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or the relevant Governmental Authority, in the manner and at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without the imposition, deduction or withholding of such Indemnified Tax or Other Tax or at a reduced rate; <u>provided</u> that such Agent or such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in its reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice its commercial or legal position or require disclosure of information it considers confidential or proprietary. The U.S. Borrower or such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are requested by any Agent or any Lender to obtain the benefits of any exemption from or reduction in the rate of any Indemnified Tax, Other Tax or Excluded Tax.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) If a payment made to a Lender or an Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA, such Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall deliver to the U.S. Borrower and each Agent at such time or times reasonably requested by the U.S. Borrower or an Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by a Borrower or an Agent as may be necessary for such Borrower and such Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Agent and such Lender have complied with such Agent's and such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph, "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date.

**<u>Section 2.20</u>** <u>Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, premium, fees, reimbursement of LC Disbursements, reimbursement of FCI Disbursements, or of amounts payable under <u>Section 2.17</u>, <u>Section 2.18</u> or <u>Section 2.19</u>, or to provide Cash Cover, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, local time), on the date when due, in same day funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Office, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable to but excluding such Business Day. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, each such payment (other than (i) principal of and interest on Loans and LC Disbursements denominated in an Alternative Currency, which shall be made in the applicable Alternative Currency, except as otherwise specified in <u>Section 2.5(e)</u> and (ii) payments in respect of the FCIs and FCI Disbursements thereunder, which shall be made in the currency applicable to such FCI) shall be made in Dollars.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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 (or premium, if any) on any of its Revolving Loans, portion of the Term Loan A, Incremental Term Loans, FCI Disbursements, participations in LC Disbursements or participations in Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, portion of the Term Loan A, Incremental Term Loans, FCI Disbursements, participations in LC Disbursements and participations in Swingline Loans and accrued interest (and premium, if any) 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, the Term Loan A, any Incremental Term Loans, FCI Disbursements, participations in LC Disbursements and participations in 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 (and premium, if any) on their respective Revolving Loans, portion of the Term Loan A, Incremental Term Loans, FCI Disbursements, participations in LC Disbursements and participations in Swingline Loans; <u>provided</u> 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 a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document 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 the Parent 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders (or any of them) or the Issuing Lenders (or any one of them) hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders or the relevant Issuing Lenders, as applicable the amount due. With respect to any payment that any Agent makes for the account of the Lenders, any Issuing Lender, or any FCI Issuing Lender hereunder as to which such Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that any of the following applies (such payment referred to as a "<u>Rescindable Amount</u>"): (i) the applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment; (ii) such Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount so paid by such Borrower (whether or not then owed); or (iii) such Agent has for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Lenders or the applicable FCI Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to such Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such FCI Issuing Lender, in same day funds 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 such Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by such Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

**<u>Section 2.21</u>** <u>Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent requests compensation under <u>Section 2.17</u>, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent pursuant to <u>Section 2.19</u>, then, in the case of a Lender, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or, in the case of a Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, such party will use reasonable efforts to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, as applicable, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to <u>Section 2.17</u> or <u>Section 2.19</u>, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, as applicable, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent in connection with any such designation or assignment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If (i) any Lender (other than an FCI Issuing Lender) or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent requests compensation under <u>Section 2.17</u>, (ii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent pursuant to <u>Section 2.19</u>, (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (iv) any Lender becomes a "Non-Consenting Lender" (as defined below), or (v) any Lender is a non-extending Lender pursuant to <u>Section 2.1(c)</u> or <u>Section 2.6(b)</u>, then the U.S. Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender (other than an FCI Issuing Lender in the case of applicability of clause (i) above) or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender (other than an FCI Issuing Lender in the case of applicability of clause (i) above) or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (in the case of clause (i) or clause (ii) above as such clauses relate to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent) to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in <u>Section 9.4</u>), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee, in the case of a Lender, may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); <u>provided</u> that (A) the U.S. Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (B) such Lender or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, as applicable, shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, FCI Disbursements, participations in LC Disbursements and participations Swingline Loans, accrued interest (and premium, if any) 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 such Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (C) in the event of a replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender, in order for the U.S. Borrower to be entitled to replace such a Lender, such replacement must take place no later than 120 days after the date the Non-Consenting Lender shall have notified the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its failure to agree to any requested consent, waiver or amendment. Neither a Lender nor the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling a Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. In the event that (x) the U.S. Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested the Lenders to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or to agree to any amendment thereto (including extensions of any maturity date) or to approve a request that Revolving Loans be made, or Letters of Credit and FCIs be issued, in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of "Alternative Currency", (y) the consent, waiver, amendment or request in question requires the agreement of all Lenders (or of a particular affected Lender) in accordance with the terms of <u>Section 1.9(a)</u>, <u>Section 2.6(b)</u> or <u>Section 9.2</u> and (z) if required, the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed a "<u>Non-Consenting Lender</u>".

**<u>Section 2.22</u>** <u>Change in Law.</u>

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, after the Effective Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) (i) any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, or any Revolving Lender to make Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, or any FCI Issuing Lender to issue any FCIs, or (ii) there shall have occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates that would make it impracticable for any Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit denominated in such Alternative Currency for the account of a Borrower, or any Revolving Lender to make Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, or any FCI Issuing Lender to issue any FCIs, then, in the case of this clause (a), by prompt written notice thereof to the U.S. Borrower and to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (A) such Issuing Lender may declare that Letters of Credit will not thereafter be issued by it in the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies, whereupon the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies shall be deemed (for the duration of such declaration) not to constitute an Alternative Currency for purposes of the issuance of Letters of Credit by such Issuing Lender, (B) such Revolving Lender may declare that Revolving Loans will not thereafter be made by it in the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies, whereupon the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies shall be deemed (for the duration of such declaration) not to constitute an Alternative Currency for purposes of the making of Revolving Loans by such Revolving Lender, and (C) such FCI Issuing Lender may declare that such affected FCIs will not thereafter be issued by it and the commitment of such FCI Issuing Lender to issue such affected FCIs shall forthwith be cancelled (for the duration of such declaration); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any Law shall make it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to SOFR, Term SOFR or any Relevant Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR, Term SOFR or any Relevant Rate, then by prompt written notice thereof to the U.S. Borrower and to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, in the case of Term SOFR Loans, to convert ABR Loans to Term SOFR Loans, shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Term SOFR component of the Alternate Base Rate, the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Alternate Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist; and, upon receipt of such notice specified in the foregoing clause (b), (A) the U.S. Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay in full such Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Loans then outstanding (which prepayment shall be made (x) with respect to Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, on the last day of the relevant Interest Periods of such Loans, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans to such day, and (y) with respect to Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loans, on the next Interest Payment Date for such Loans, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans to such day) or, if applicable and such Loans are Term SOFR Loans, convert such Term SOFR Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Alternate Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans, and (B) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Term SOFR component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR (and, upon any such prepayment or conversion, the U.S. Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to <u>Section 2.18</u>).

**<u>Section 2.23</u><u> </u>**<u>Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the U.S. Borrower may designate any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Revolving Facility by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Foreign Subsidiary, the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent and upon such delivery such Foreign Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Revolving Facility and a party to this Agreement until the U.S. Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Foreign Subsidiary, whereupon such Foreign Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Revolving Facility. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Revolving Facility at a time when any Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding thereunder or any Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding (which shall not have been cash collateralized in a manner consistent with the terms of <u>Section 2.5(j)</u>); <u>provided</u> that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower's right to make further borrowings under the Revolving Facility. As of the Third Amendment Effective Date, there are no Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers with respect to the Revolving Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) (i) Subject to the consent of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and each FCI Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the U.S. Borrower may designate any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility by delivery to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Foreign Subsidiary, the U.S. Borrower, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent and upon such delivery such Foreign Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility and a party to this Agreement until the U.S. Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Foreign Subsidiary, whereupon such Foreign Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility. As of the Third Amendment Effective Date, there are no Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers with respect to the Foreign Trade Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Notwithstanding the preceding clause (i), no such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility at a time when any Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding thereunder or any applicable FCIs issued for the account of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding (which shall not have been cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of <u>Section 2.6(m)(iv)</u> or the obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in respect of each outstanding FCI shall not have been assumed by the U.S. Borrower or another Foreign Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to a written assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the U.S. Borrower, such terminated Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower that assumes obligations of such terminated Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent); <u>provided</u> that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower's right to request further FCIs or other extensions of credit under the Foreign Trade Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) For the avoidance of doubt, no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be liable for the Obligations (other than the Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Revolving Lenders of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower added or terminated pursuant to <u>Section 2.23(a)</u>, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly notify each FCI Issuing Lender of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower added or terminated pursuant to <u>Section 2.23(b)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this <u>Section 2.23</u>: (i) no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall become a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Revolving Facility until such time as (A) the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender shall have completed "know your customer" due diligence with respect to such proposed Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, and the U.S. Borrower shall have provided to the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender the documentation and other information requested by the Administrative Agent or such Revolving Lender in order to comply with applicable law, including the PATRIOT Act, Sanctions, the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the applicable European Union or German acts and ordinance such as the German Anti-Money-Laundering-Act ("*Geldwäschegesetz*"), and the German Foreign Trade Ordinance (*Verordnung zur Durchführung des Außenwirtschaftsgesetzes ("Außenwirtschaftsverordnung*"*)*), and (B) if such proposed Foreign Subsidiary Borrower qualifies as a "legal entity customer" under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender shall have received, to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent or such Revolving Lender, a Beneficial Ownership Certification with respect to such proposed Foreign Subsidiary Borrower; and (ii) no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall become a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility until such time as (A) the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and each FCI Issuing Lender shall have completed "know your customer" due diligence with respect to such proposed Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, and the U.S. Borrower shall have provided to the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and each FCI Issuing Lender the documentation and other information requested by the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or such FCI Issuing Lender in order to comply with applicable law, including the PATRIOT Act, Sanctions, the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the applicable European Union or German acts and ordinance such as the German Anti-Money-Laundering-Act ("*Geldwäschegesetz*"), and the German Foreign Trade Ordinance (*Verordnung zur Durchführung des Außenwirtschaftsgesetzes ("Außenwirtschaftsverordnung*"*)*), and (B) if such proposed Foreign Subsidiary Borrower qualifies as a "legal entity customer" under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and each FCI Issuing Lender shall have received, to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or such FCI Issuing Lender, a Beneficial Ownership Certification with respect to such proposed Foreign Subsidiary Borrower.

**<u>Section 2.24</u><u> </u>**<u>Defaulting Lenders.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Adjustments</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable laws:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Waivers and Amendment</u>. The Defaulting Lender's right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in <u>Section 9.2</u>, in the definition of "Required Lenders" and in the definition of "Required Revolving Lenders".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Reallocation of Payments</u>. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by any Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to <u>Article VII</u> or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to such Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to <u>Section 9.8</u>), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: *first*, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Agents hereunder; *second*, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender hereunder; *third*, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the U.S. Borrower or any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan; *fourth*, as the U.S. Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent or Foreign Trade Facility Agent, as applicable; *fifth*, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or Foreign Trade Facility Agent, as applicable, or requested by the U.S. Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; *sixth*, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; *seventh*, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the U.S. Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the U.S. Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and *eighth*, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; <u>provided</u> that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or unreimbursed LC Disbursements in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or unreimbursed LC Disbursements were made at a time when the conditions set forth in <u>Section 4.2</u> were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and unreimbursed LC Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or unreimbursed LC Disbursements, owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to pay other amounts or post cash collateral pursuant to this <u>Section 2.24(a)(ii)</u> shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Certain Fees</u>. The Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any fees pursuant to <u>Section 2.14(a)</u>, <u>Section 2.14(b)</u> or <u>Section 2.14(f)</u> for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the U.S. Borrower and other Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Financial Letter of Credit Fees, Non-Financial Letter of Credit Fees and any of the fees described in <u>Section 2.6(n)</u> to the extent as provided in <u>Section 2.24(b)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Reallocation of Applicable Revolving Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure</u>. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Financial Letters of Credit, Non-Financial Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans, the "Applicable Revolving Percentage" of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; <u>provided</u> that each such reallocation shall be given effect only to the extent that the aggregate obligation of that non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Financial Letters of Credit, Non-Financial Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans after giving effect to such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Exposure of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender's Revolving Commitment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Defaulting Lender Cure</u>. If the U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their relevant Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to <u>Section 2.24(a)(iv)</u>), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; <u>provided</u> that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the U.S. Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; <u>provided</u>, f<u>urther</u>, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties (and, in any event, subject to <u>Section 9.19</u>), no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender's having been a Defaulting Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Request for Cash Collateral</u>. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within three (3) Business Days of the request of the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, the U.S. Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent cash collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to <u>Section 2.24(a)(iv)</u> and any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Grant of Security Interest</u>. All cash collateral provided pursuant to this Section shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest-bearing deposit accounts at the Administrative Agent, with respect to cash collateral supporting the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lenders and the Swingline Lender. The U.S. Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and/or the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender), as applicable, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such cash collateral may be applied pursuant to <u>Section 2.24(e)</u>. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that cash collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such cash collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the U.S. Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional cash collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Application</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, cash collateral provided under this <u>Section 2.24</u> in respect of Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans shall be held and applied in satisfaction of the specific obligations for which the cash collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided herein or in any other Loan Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Release</u>. Cash collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender) or (ii) the Administrative Agent's good faith determination that there exists excess cash collateral; <u>provided</u> that (x) that cash collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this <u>Section 2.24</u> may be otherwise applied in accordance with terms of the Loan Documents) and (y) the Loan Party providing cash collateral and the Issuing Lenders and the Swingline Lender, as applicable, may agree that cash collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

**<u>Section 2.25</u><u> </u>**<u>Lending Offices.</u>

Each Lender, Issuing Lender or FCI Issuing Lender, at its option, may perform its obligations hereunder through any Lending Office; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay any Loans, Letters of Credit or FCIs in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

**Article III**

**<u>Section 3.4</u><u> </u>**<u>Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Parent has heretofore furnished to the Lenders its consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders equity and cash flows (i) as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, reported on by Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent public accountants, and (ii) as of and for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2025, certified by its chief financial officer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Since December 31, 2024, there has been no event or condition that has had or could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; <u>provided</u> that it is understood and agreed that, in any case, the Permitted Reorganization shall not be deemed to have, or reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

**<u>Section 3.5</u><u> </u>**<u>Properties.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property material to its business, except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person.

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

**<u>Section 3.10</u><u> </u>**<u>ERISA.</u>

No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except to the extent such excess could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plan, and the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans.

**<u>Section 3.11</u><u> </u>**<u>Disclosure.</u>

Neither the Information Memorandum nor any of the other reports, financial statements, certificates or other written information, taken as a whole, furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to any Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or delivered hereunder or thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; <u>provided</u> that (a) with respect to projected financial information and other forward-looking information, the Parent and each Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time, and (b) with respect to information regarding the general economy or industry, the Parent and each Borrower represents only that such information was obtained from sources believed to be reliable.

<u>Schedule 3.12</u> sets forth the name of, and the direct and indirect ownership interest of the Parent in each Subsidiary of the Parent and identifies each Subsidiary that is a Guarantor, in each case, as of the Third Amendment Effective Date.

The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary is bound.

**<u>Section 3.14</u><u> </u>**<u>Solvency.</u>

Immediately after the consummation of the Transactions to occur on the Third Amendment Effective Date and immediately following the making of each Loan made on the Third Amendment Effective Date and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such Loans: (a) the fair value of the assets of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, at a fair valuation, will exceed their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of their debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (d) the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which they are engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted following the Third Amendment Effective Date.

**<u>Section 3.15</u><u> </u>**<u>Senior Indebtedness.</u>

At all times after the issuance of any Subordinated Debt, (a) the Obligations will constitute "Senior Indebtedness" (or any comparable concept) under and as defined in the Subordinated Debt Documents and (b) in the event that any Loan Party Guarantees the Subordinated Debt, the obligations of such Loan Party, as applicable, under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, will constitute "Guarantor Senior Indebtedness" (or any comparable concept) of such Loan Party under and as defined in the Subordinated Debt Documents.

**<u>Section 3.16</u><u> </u>**<u>Security Documents.</u>

The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the holders of the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral to the extent described therein and available under the UCC. As of the Third Amendment Effective Date, <u>Schedule 3.16</u> lists all of the filing jurisdictions in which UCC-1 Financing Statements are required to be filed pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. Upon filing of such UCC-1 Financing Statements, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement creates a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral to the extent available under the UCC, as security for the Obligations, in each case, subject to Permitted Encumbrances or as otherwise permitted by <u>Section 6.3</u>, prior and superior in right to any other Person.

**<u>Section 3.17</u><u> </u>**<u>OFAC; Anti-Money Laundering Laws; Patriot Act; FCPA.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary nor, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, any director, officer, employee, agent, affiliate or representative thereof, is an individual or entity that is, or is owned or controlled by one or more individuals or entities that is, currently the subject of any Sanctions, nor is the Parent or any Subsidiary located, organized, resident or doing business in a Designated Jurisdiction, except in the case of doing business to the extent permitted under the applicable Sanctions program, in each case to the extent that the aforementioned Sanctions programs are applicable to the Parent and its Subsidiaries. The Parent has taken reasonable measures appropriate to the circumstances (in any event as required by applicable law), to ensure that the Parent and its Subsidiaries each is and will continue to be in compliance with all applicable Sanctions.

The Parent will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, keep and maintain all property material to the conduct of its business in good condition, ordinary obsolescence, wear and tear excepted and except where the failure to do so, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Each Lender Party irrevocably waives any and all defenses, including any "discharge for value" (under which a creditor might otherwise claim a right to retain funds mistakenly paid by a third party in respect of a debt owed by another) or similar defense to its obligation to return any Rescindable Amount. The applicable Agent shall inform each applicable Lender Party promptly upon determining that any payment made to such Lender Party comprised, in whole or in part, a Rescindable Amount.

The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; <u>provided</u> that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>No Assignment to the Parent or the U.S. Borrower</u>. Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to <u>Section 9.4(k)</u>, no such assignment shall be made to the Parent, the U.S. Borrower, any Affiliate of the Parent or the U.S. Borrower, or any Subsidiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>No Assignment to Natural Persons</u>. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, one or more natural Persons).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) <u>Certain Additional Payments</u>. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the applicable Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the U.S. Borrower and the applicable Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agents or any Lenders hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Applicable Revolving Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to <u>Section 9.4(c)</u>, 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 <u>Sections 2.17</u>, <u>2.18</u>, <u>2.19</u> and <u>9.3</u> with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, each Borrower (at their respective expense), as applicable, 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 treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with <u>Sections 9.4(e)</u> and <u>(f)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Register</u>. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the U.S. Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans, FCI Issuing Lender Exposure, and LC Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "<u>Register</u>"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the U.S. Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Notes</u>. If after giving effect to any Assignment and Assumption, the relevant assignor no longer has any Commitments with respect to the Commitments being assigned, such assignor shall, upon the request of the U.S. Borrower, return each Note (if any) with respect to each such Commitment to the U.S. Borrower marked "cancelled".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Participations</u>. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or any Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, one or more natural Persons), a Defaulting Lender, the Parent, the U.S. Borrower, any Affiliate of the Parent or the U.S. Borrower, or any Subsidiary) (each, a "<u>Participant</u>") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Loans (including such Lender's participations in LC Exposure and/or Swingline Loans) owing to it); <u>provided</u> 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 U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the other Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, and the FCI Issuing 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; <u>provided</u> that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the proviso to <u>Section 9.2(b)</u> (and other than application of any default rate of interest pursuant to <u>Section 2.15(c)</u>) that affects such Participant. Subject to <u>Section 9.4(f)</u>, the U.S. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of <u>Sections 2.17</u>, <u>2.18</u> and <u>2.19</u> to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to <u>Section 9.4(b)</u>; <u>provided</u> that, in the case of <u>Section 2.19</u>, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of <u>Section 9.8</u> as though it were a Lender; <u>provided</u> that such Participant agrees to be subject to <u>Section 2.20(c)</u> as though it were a Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Limitation on Participant Rights</u>. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under <u>Section 2.17</u> or <u>Section 2.19</u> than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the U.S. Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of <u>Section 2.19</u> unless the U.S. Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the U.S. Borrower, to comply with <u>Sections 2.19(e)</u>, <u>2.19(f)</u> and <u>2.19(i)</u>, as though it were a Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Certain Pledges</u>. 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 Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority; <u>provided</u> 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Resignation as Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender after Assignment</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Commitments and Loans pursuant to <u>Section 9.4(b)</u>, Bank of America may, (i) upon thirty days' notice to the U.S. Borrower and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Lender and/or (ii) upon thirty days' notice to the U.S. Borrower, resign as Swingline Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, the U.S. Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender hereunder; <u>provided</u> that no failure by the U.S. Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender and all LC Exposure with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make ABR Loans or fund risk participations in unreimbursed amounts pursuant to <u>Section 2.5(d)</u>). If Bank of America resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make ABR Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to <u>Section 2.4(c)</u>. Upon the appointment of a successor Issuing Lender and/or Swingline Lender, (A) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (B) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Assignments by FCI Issuing Lenders</u>. Any FCI Issuing Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its FCI Issuing Commitment (and related rights and obligations with respect to such FCI Issuing Commitment); <u>provided</u> that any such assignment shall be subject to the consent of the U.S. Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment and to the consent of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent an assignment agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee in the aggregate amount of $3,500 payable to the Administrative Agent; <u>provided</u> that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any such assignment. The assignee, if it is not already an FCI Issuing Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. No such assignment by an FCI Issuing Lender shall be made to (i) the Parent, the U.S. Borrower, any Affiliate of the Parent or the U.S. Borrower, or any Subsidiary or (ii) a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, one or more natural persons). Upon consummation of any such assignment, <u>Schedule 1.1A</u> shall be deemed revised to reflect the FCI Issuing Commitments after giving effect to such assignment. From and after the effective date specified in each such Assignment and Assumption, the assignee FCI Issuing Lender thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the FCI Issuing Commitment assigned by such assignment, have the rights and obligations of an FCI Issuing Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning FCI Issuing Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the FCI Issuing Commitment assigned by such assignment, be released from its obligations under this Agreement but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of <u>Sections 2.17</u>, <u>2.18</u>, <u>2.19</u> and <u>9.3</u> with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment and shall continue to have the rights and obligations of an FCI Issuing Lender with respect to any FCIs issued by it prior to the time of such assignment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the U.S. Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents sold to such Participant (the "<u>Participant Register</u>"); <u>provided</u> that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that the applicable obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement and any other Loan Document notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <u>Borrower Buybacks</u>. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Term Loan A Lender and/or any Incremental Term Lender, as applicable (but not, for purposes of clarity, any other Facility) may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its Term Loans on non-pro rata basis to the U.S. Borrower in accordance with the procedures set forth on <u>Schedule 9.4(k)</u>, pursuant to an offer made to all Term Loan A Lenders and/or all Incremental Term Lenders, as applicable, on a pro rata basis (a "<u>Dutch Auction</u>"), subject to the following limitations: (i) immediately and automatically, without any further action on the part of the U.S. Borrower, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, upon the effectiveness of such assignment of Term Loans from a Term Loan A Lender and/or an Incremental Term Lender, as applicable, to the U.S. Borrower, such Term Loans and all rights and obligations as a Term Loan A Lender and/or an Incremental Term Lender, as applicable, related thereto shall, for all purposes under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and otherwise, be deemed to be irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect and the U.S. Borrower shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Term Loan A Lender and/or an Incremental Term Lender, as applicable, hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by virtue of such assignment; (ii) no proceeds of any Revolving Loans or any Swingline Loans shall be used to fund any such assignment; and (iii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing before or immediately after giving effect to such assignment. By participating in any such Dutch Auction, each Lender acknowledges and agrees that (A) the Parent and its Subsidiaries may have, and later may come into possession of, Excluded Information, (B) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such Dutch Auction notwithstanding such Lender's lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information, (C) none of the Parent and its Subsidiaries shall be required to make any representation that it is not in possession of Excluded Information, (D) none of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against any such Persons under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information, (E) the Excluded Information may not be available to the Agents and the other Lenders and (F) if so requested by any party to assignments of all or any portion of its Term Loans in connection with such Dutch Auction, such Lender will make additional customary "big boy" representations.

**<u>Section 9.8</u>** <u>Right of Setoff.</u>

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of a Loan Party against any of and all the obligations of a Loan Party 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; <u>provided</u> that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 2.24</u> and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the applicable Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY, AND WHETHER AT LAW OR IN EQUITY).

**<u>Section 9.13</u>** <u>Release of Collateral.</u>

**<u>Section 9.14</u>** <u>Judgment Currency.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Loan Party's obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in a specified currency (the "<u>Obligation Currency</u>") shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the applicable Agent or a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to such Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the "<u>Judgment Currency</u>") an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the "<u>Judgment Currency Conversion Date</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the U.S. Borrower covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) For purposes of determining any rate of exchange or currency equivalent for this Section, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

**<u>Section 9.15</u>** <u>USA Patriot Act Notice.</u>

Each Lender hereby notifies the Parent and each Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act and other applicable foreign Requirements of Law, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Parent and each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Parent and each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Parent and each Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act or such other Requirements of Law, as applicable.

**<u>Section 9.16</u>** <u>Electronic Execution; Electronic Records; Counterparts.</u>

This Agreement, any other Loan Document and any other Communication, including Communications required to be in writing, may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures. The Parent, each Borrower, each Agent and each Lender Party agrees that any Electronic Signature on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on such Person to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person enforceable against such Person in accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this <u>Section 9.16</u> may include use or acceptance of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into .pdf), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Each Agent and each of the Lender Parties may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (each, an "<u>Electronic Copy</u>"), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person's business, and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, none of any Agent, any Issuing Lender, any FCI Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender is under any obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by such Person pursuant to procedures approved by it; <u>provided</u> that, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent such Agent, such Issuing Lender, such FCI Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, each Agent and each of the Lender Parties shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Parent, any Borrower and/or any Lender Party without further verification, and (b) upon the request of any Agent or any Lender Party, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

None of any Agent, any Issuing Lender, any FCI Issuing Lender, or the Swingline Lender shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with such Agent's, such Issuing Lender's, such FCI Issuing Lender's or the Swingline Lender's reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed .pdf or any other electronic means). Each Agent, each Issuing Lender, each FCI Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any Communication (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution or signed using an Electronic Signature) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).

The Parent, each Borrower and each Lender Party hereby waives (a) any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, and (b) any claim against each Agent and each Lender Party for any liabilities arising solely from any Agent's and/or any Lender Party's reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures, including any liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Parent or the Borrowers to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

**<u>Section 9.17</u>** <u>No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.</u>

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Parent and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its respective Subsidiaries' understanding, that: (a)(i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and BofA Securities, are arm's-length commercial transactions between the Parent and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and BofA Securities, on the other hand, (ii) the Parent and each Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (iii) the Parent and each Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b)(i) the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and BofA Securities each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Parent or any of Subsidiaries or any other Person and (ii) neither the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent nor BofA Securities has any obligation to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and BofA Securities and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, and neither the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent nor BofA Securities has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Parent or its Subsidiaries. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Parent and each Borrower hereby waives and releases, any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or BofA Securities with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

**<u>Section 9.18</u>** <u>Keepwell.</u>

Each Loan Party that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor at the time the Guarantee under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is entered into by any Loan Party that is not then an "eligible contract participant" under the Commodity Exchange Act (a "<u>Specified Loan Party</u>") or at the time any such Specified Loan Party grants a security interest under the Loan Documents, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each Specified Loan Party with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP Guarantor's obligations and undertakings under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement voidable under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States (or similar debtor relief laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdictions), and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of each applicable Loan Party under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the Obligations (other than (a) contingent indemnification obligations for which no claims have been made, and (b) the Designated Obligations) have been paid in full, the Commitments have expired or terminated and all Letters of Credit and FCIs shall have expired (without any pending drawing) or terminated (or been fully cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of <u>Section 2.5(j)</u> or <u>Section 2.6(m)(iv)</u>, as applicable). Each Loan Party intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a "keepwell, support, or other agreement" for the benefit of, each Specified Loan Party for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

**<u>Section 9.19</u>** <u>Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.</u>

Solely to the extent any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any FCI Issuing Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution is a party to this Agreement and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any FCI Issuing Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any FCI Issuing Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable, (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability, (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

**<u>Section 9.20</u>** <u>Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFC.</u>

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Hedging Agreement or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "<u>QFC Credit Support</u>", and each such QFC, a "<u>Supported QFC</u>"), the parties acknowledge and agree that, with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "<u>U.S. Special Resolution Regimes</u>") in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States), in the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a "<u>Covered Party</u>") becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
