The Facility Agent must give this notification to the Company and the Additional Facility P Lenders promptly upon being so satisfied.

Commencement Date, provided that the Borrower shall become an Obligor on a date no later than the date of the Utilisation Request in respect of Facility P.
6.    The Additional Facility P Lenders will only be obliged to comply with Clause 4.2 (Lenders’ Participations) of the Credit Agreement in relation to any Utilisation of Facility P if on the date of the Utilisation Request and on the proposed Utilisation Date:
(a)    the representations and warranties in Clause 21.2 (Status) to Clause 21.5 (Non-violation) (inclusive) of the Credit Agreement to be made by the Borrower are true, in respect of the Borrower only, in all material respects in each case by reference to the facts and circumstances then subsisting; and 
(b)    it is not unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for that Additional Facility P Lender to perform any of its obligations to fund or participate in that Utilisation.
7.    No Utilisation of Facility P may occur unless:

(a)    cancel any of its Facility P Commitments;
(b)    rescind, terminate or cancel this Additional Facility P Accession Deed, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Relevant Finance Documents or Facility P or exercise any similar right or remedy or make or enforce any claim under the Relevant Finance Documents it may have to the extent to do so would prevent or limit the making of any Facility P Advance;
(c)    refuse to participate in the making of a Facility P Advance;
(d)    exercise any right of set off or counterclaim or similar right or remedy in respect of a Utilisation to the extent to do so would prevent or limit the making of a Facility P Advance;
(e)    cancel, accelerate or cause repayment or prepayment of any amounts owing under this Additional Facility P Accession Deed, the Credit Agreement or any other Relevant Finance Document or exercise any enforcement rights under 
7
84894163_20

any Security Document to the extent to do so would prevent or limit the making of a Facility P Advance; or
(f)    take any other action or make or enforce any claim (in its capacity as a Lender) to the extent that such action, claim or enforcement would directly or indirectly prevent or limit the making of a Facility P Advance,
provided that immediately upon the expiry of the Additional Facility Availability Period for Facility P, all such rights, remedies and entitlements shall be available to the Additional Facility P Lenders, the Facility Agent and the other Relevant Finance Parties notwithstanding that they may not have been used or been available for use during the Additional Facility Availability Period for Facility P.
9.    The Additional Facility Commitment in relation to an Additional Facility P Lender (for the purpose of the definition of Additional Facility Commitment in Clause 1.1 (Definitions) of the Credit Agreement) is its Facility P Commitment.
10.    Any interest due in relation to Facility P will be payable on the last day of each Interest Period in accordance with Clause 14.4 (Payment of Interest for Term Facility Advances) of the Credit Agreement.
11.    The Additional Facility Availability Period for Facility P shall be the period from and including the Additional Facility Commencement Date up to and including the earlier of:
(a)    the date falling 10 Business Days following the Long Stop Date (or, if the Long Stop Date is postponed in accordance with the terms of the Contribution Agreement, the Postponed Long Stop Date); 
(b)    the date falling 45 Business Days following the Completion Date; 
(c)    the Merger Termination Date; and 
(d)    the date falling 30 months after the Syndication Close Date (as defined in each Commitment Letter), 
(or such other date agreed between the Additional Facility P Lenders and the Company). At the end of the Additional Facility Availability Period for Facility P, the Available Commitments in respect of Facility P shall automatically be cancelled and the Available Commitments in respect of Facility P for each Additional Facility P Lender shall automatically be reduced to zero.
11A.    Subject to the terms of this Additional Facility P Accession Deed, the Additional Facility P Lenders make available to the Borrower a term loan facility in an amount equal to the aggregate of the Facility P Commitments.
12.    Facility P may be drawn by up to two Advances (or any other number of Advances agreed between the Additional Facility P Lenders and the Company) and no more than two Utilisation Requests (or any other number of Utilisation Requests agreed 
8
84894163_20

between the Additional Facility P Lenders and the Company) may be made in respect of Facility P under the Credit Agreement.
13.    
(a)    Subject to paragraph (b) below, the first Interest Period to apply to each Facility P Advance will be a period running from the first Utilisation Date in respect of that Facility P Advance up to (and including) the last Business Day of the Existing Interest Period, and thereafter shall be determined in accordance with Clause 14.2 (Duration) of the Credit Agreement.
(b)    If the Existing Interest Period has less than one month until expiry, the first Interest Period in relation to the relevant Facility P Advance will be the unexpired portion of the Existing Interest Period plus an additional six months.
14.    The Facility P Advances will be used for general corporate and/or working capital purposes, including without limitation, the payment of a distribution out of the Bank Group in connection with the Merger, the redemption, refinancing, repayment or prepayment of any existing indebtedness of the Bank Group and/or the O2 Group (as defined in the Commitment Letters) and/or the payment of any fees and expenses in connection with Facility P and the transactions related thereto.

17.    The Margin in relation to Facility P is 2.75 per cent. per annum or such other rate agreed between the Additional Facility P Lenders and the Company.  For the avoidance of doubt, each party to this Additional Facility P Accession Deed accepts and acknowledges that LIBOR has the meaning given to it under Clause 1.1 (Definitions) of the Credit Agreement and, provided that, in relation to the first Interest Period to apply to each Facility P Advance, LIBOR shall mean the LIBOR rate calculated for the Existing Interest Period.
18.    The Borrower in relation to Facility P is VMED O2 UK Holdco 4 Limited.
19.    The interest rate for Facility P will, subject to paragraph 17 above, be calculated in accordance with Clause 14 (Interest on Term Facility Advances) of the Credit Agreement, being the sum of LIBOR and the applicable Margin.
20.    
(a)    For the sole benefit of the Additional Facility P Lenders in their capacity as Lenders in respect of Facility P, in the event that on the last day of a Ratio Period the aggregate of the Revolving Facility Outstandings and any Additional Facility Outstandings in relation to an Additional Facility that is a revolving facility (in each case, other than Documentary Credits that are cash 
9
84894163_20

collateralised or undrawn) and the net indebtedness outstanding under each Ancillary Facility less Cash of the Bank Group exceeds an amount equal to 40 per cent. of the aggregate of the Revolving Facility Commitments and any Additional Facility Commitments in relation to an Additional Facility that is a revolving facility and each Ancillary Facility Commitment (the “Facility P Financial Ratio Test Condition”), the Company shall procure that the ratio of Total Net Debt to Annualised EBITDA on that day (the “Facility P Financial Ratio”) shall not exceed 5.50:1 unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Majority Additional Facility P Lenders and the Company.
(b)    If the financial covenant set out in paragraph 20(a) above has been breached for a Ratio Period but is complied with on the last day of the next Ratio Period (either because the Facility P Financial Ratio Test Condition is not met for that next Ratio Period or because the Facility P Financial Ratio does not exceed 5.50:1 for that next Ratio Period), then, the prior breach of such financial covenant or any Event of Default arising therefrom shall not (or shall be deemed to not) directly or indirectly constitute, or result in, a breach of any representation, warranty, undertaking or other term in the Relevant Finance Documents or a Default or an Event of Default unless the Facility Agent has taken any action under paragraph 28 before the delivery of the certificate referred to at paragraph 26 in respect of that next Ratio Period.
21.    
(a)    Total Net Debt for the purposes of paragraph 20 for any Ratio Period will be calculated by reference to the relevant financial statements required to be delivered under Clause 23.2 (Financial information) of the Credit Agreement.
(b)    For the purposes of calculating Annualised EBITDA for any period (or part of any period) or Total Assets for the purposes of paragraph 20 in respect of which the relevant financial information does not include one or more members of the Bank Group on a consolidated basis, the financial information available for such members of the Bank Group on an unconsolidated basis for that period (or part of that period) may be used to calculate Annualised EBITDA or Total Assets (as applicable) for the Bank Group on a combined basis.
22.    
(a)    The Company may cure a breach of the financial ratio set out in paragraph 20 by procuring that:
(i)    additional equity is injected into, and/or additional Subordinated Funding is provided to, one or more members of the Bank Group in an aggregate amount equal to or greater than the amount which if it had been deducted from Total Net Debt for the Ratio Period in respect of which the breach arose, would have avoided the breach; or
(ii)    additional equity is injected into, and/or additional Subordinated Funding is provided to, one or more members of the Bank Group in an 
10
84894163_20

aggregate amount equal to or greater than the amount which if it had been added to EBITDA for the Ratio Period in respect of which the breach arose, would have avoided the breach; or
(iii)    Revolving Facility Outstandings and/or any Additional Facility Outstandings in relation to an Additional Facility that is a revolving facility and/or net indebtedness under any Ancillary Facility are prepaid (from any source selected by the Company in its sole discretion) in an amount which if such prepayment had occurred immediately prior to the calculation on the last day of the Ratio Period in respect of which the breach arose, the Facility P Financial Ratio Test Condition as at the last day of that Ratio Period would not have been met and therefore the financial ratio would not have been required to be tested.
(b)    A cure under this paragraph 22 will not be effective unless:
(i)    in the case of paragraph 22(a)(i) or 22(a)(ii) above, an amount equal to or greater than the required amount of additional equity or the proceeds of any Subordinated Funding is received by one or more members of the Bank Group;
(ii)    in the case of paragraph 22(a)(iii) above, the amount of the Revolving Facility Outstandings and/or any Additional Facility Outstandings in relation to an Additional Facility that is a revolving facility and/or net indebtedness under any Ancillary Facility that are required to be prepaid are so prepaid,
(c)    in each case, within 30 Business Days of delivery of the financial statements delivered under Clause 23.2 (Financial information) of the Credit Agreement which show that the financial ratio set out at paragraph 20 has been breached (the “Cure Period”).
(d)    No cure may be made under this paragraph 22:
(i)    in respect of more than five Ratio Periods during the life of Facility P; or
(ii)    in respect of consecutive Ratio Periods.
(e)    The Company shall make an election (at its sole discretion) by notice to the Facility Agent prior to the end of the Cure Period as to whether a breach of the financial ratio set out in paragraph 20 shall be cured pursuant to a recalculation as described in either paragraph 22(a)(i), 22(a)(ii) or 22(a)(iii).
(f)    If the Company makes an election for a recalculation as described in paragraphs 22(a)(i) or 22(a)(ii), it shall be under no obligation to apply the amount of additional equity or the proceeds of any Subordinated Funding that are received by one or more members of the Bank Group in prepayment of Facility P or for any other specific purpose and such amount will be deemed to 
11
84894163_20

be deducted from Total Net Debt or added to EBITDA for the purposes of paragraph 20 (as applicable) as at the last day of the relevant Ratio Period.
(g)    If the Company makes an election for a recalculation as described in paragraph 22(a)(iii), the amount of the Revolving Facility Outstandings and/or any Additional Facility Outstandings in relation to an Additional Facility that is a revolving facility and/or net indebtedness under any Ancillary Facility that are prepaid shall be deemed to be deducted in the calculation of the Facility P Financial Ratio Test Condition for the purposes of paragraph 20 as at the last day of the relevant Ratio Period.
(h)    For the purpose of ascertaining compliance with paragraph 20, the Facility P Financial Ratio Test Condition and the ratio set out in paragraph 20, will be tested or retested, as applicable, giving effect to the elections and adjustments referred to in paragraphs 22(d), 22(e) and 22(f) above. If, after giving effect to such elections and adjustments, the requirements of paragraph 20 are met, then the requirements under paragraph 20 shall be deemed to have been satisfied as at the relevant original date of determination.
(i)    Where a cure is exercised under this paragraph 22 in respect of a breach of paragraph 20 for any financial quarter and the Company makes an election for a recalculation as described in sub-paragraph 22(a)(ii), the amount of additional equity or the proceeds of any Subordinated Funding that are received by one or more members of the Bank Group shall also be added in calculating EBITDA for any future Ratio Period that includes such financial quarter. Any adjustments pursuant to this paragraph will not be treated as a separate cure.
23.    For the purpose of testing compliance with the financial ratio set out in paragraph 20:
(a)    Financial Indebtedness of the Bank Group or the Parent and any other issuer of Parent Debt originally denominated in any currency other than Sterling that has been swapped, directly or indirectly through one or more foreign exchange hedging transactions, into Sterling, will be taken into account at its Sterling equivalent using the effective exchange rate in the relevant foreign exchange hedging transactions;
(b)    subject to Clause 1.2 (Accounting Expressions) of the Credit Agreement, all the terms used above are to be calculated in accordance with the Relevant Accounting Principles;
(c)    notwithstanding paragraphs 23(a) and 23(b), Hedged Debt will be taken into account at its Sterling equivalent calculated using the same weighted average exchange rates for the relevant ratio period used in the profit and loss statements of the relevant accounts of the Bank Group or the Parent and any other issuer of Parent Debt for calculating the Sterling equivalent of EBITDA denominated in the same currency as the currency in which that Hedged Debt is denominated or into which it has been swapped;
12
84894163_20

(d)    if there is a dispute as to any interpretation of or computation for Clause 22.1 (Financial definitions) of the Credit Agreement, the interpretation or computation of the Auditors shall prevail; and 
(e)    in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, the Annualised EBITDA and all outstanding Financial Indebtedness of any company or business division or other assets to be acquired or disposed of pursuant to a signed purchase agreement (which may be subject to one or more conditions precedent) may be given pro forma effect.
24.    For the purposes of testing compliance with the financial ratio set out in paragraph 20:
(a)    the calculations shall be determined in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Bank Group and shall be made on a pro forma basis giving effect to all material acquisitions and disposals made by the Bank Group (including in respect of anticipated expense and cost reductions) and including as a result of, or that would result from, any actions taken, committed to be taken or with respect to which substantial steps have been taken, by the Company or any other member of the Bank Group in connection with any cost reduction synergies or cost savings plan or program or in connection with any transaction, investment, acquisition, disposition, restructuring, corporate reorganisation or otherwise (regardless of whether such cost reduction synergies and cost savings plans or programs could then be reflected in pro forma financial statements to the extent prepared);

(c)    require the consent of the Company and the Majority Additional Facility P Lenders and shall not require the consent or approval of any other Finance Party.

15
84894163_20

definition shall be limited to those that are mechanical in nature unless specifically referenced in the Approved Amendments and, in each case, any consequential amendments, waivers, consents or modifications),
and this Additional Facility P Accession Deed shall constitute the irrevocable and unconditional written consent of each Additional Facility P Lender (in the capacity of a Lender, and if it is a Hedge Counterparty, in the capacity of a Hedge Counterparty) and the agreement of each Additional Facility P Lender to procure, unless it is prohibited from doing so, that each of its Affiliates and Related Funds that is a Lender under a Revolving Facility or an Additional Facility that is a revolving facility or a Hedge Counterparty provides irrevocable and unconditional written consent in that capacity in respect of such amendments, waivers, consents or other modifications to the Relevant Finance Documents for the purposes of Clause 42 (Amendments) of the Credit Agreement, Clause 21 (Remedies, Waivers & Amendments) of the Group Intercreditor Agreement or Clause 15 (Remedies, Waivers & Amendments) of the HYD Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable), and any clause in any other Relevant Finance Document relating to amendments of that Relevant Finance Document, without any further action required on the part of any party thereto.
32.    Each Additional Facility P Lender hereby waives (in its capacity as a Lender from time to time under the Credit Agreement and, if it is a Hedge Counterparty, in its capacity as a Hedge Counterparty), and agrees to procure, unless it is prohibited from doing so, that any of its Affiliates and Related Funds that are Lenders under a Revolving Facility or an Additional Facility that is a revolving facility or Hedge Counterparties waives (in their capacity as Lenders under a Revolving Facility or an Additional Facility that is a revolving facility or Hedge Counterparties, as applicable) receipt of any fee in connection with the foregoing consents, notwithstanding that other consenting Lenders under the Credit Agreement or Hedge Counterparties under the Group Intercreditor Agreement or HYD Intercreditor Agreement may be paid a fee in consideration of such Lenders’ or Hedge Counterparties’ consent to any or all of the foregoing amendments, waivers, consents or other modifications.
33.    Each Additional Facility P Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees (in its capacity as a Lender from time to time under the Credit Agreement and, if it is a Hedge Counterparty, in its capacity as a Hedge Counterparty), and agrees to procure, unless it is prohibited from doing so, that any of its Affiliates and Related Funds that are Lenders under a Revolving Facility or an Additional Facility that is a revolving facility or Hedge Counterparties acknowledge and agree (in their capacity as Lenders under a Revolving Facility or Additional Facility that is a revolving facility or Hedge Counterparties, as applicable) that the Facility Agent and/or the Security Trustee may, but shall not be required to, send to it any further formal amendment request in connection with all, or any of the proposed amendments referred to under paragraph 31 above and the Facility Agent  and/or the Security Trustee (as applicable) shall be authorised to consent on behalf of it, as a Lender under one or more Facilities and as a Hedge Counterparty under the Group Intercreditor Agreement and the HYD Intercreditor Agreement, to any such proposed amendments set out under paragraph 31 above (and the Facility Agent and/or the Security Trustee shall be authorised to enter into any necessary documentation in connection with the same), and such consent shall be taken into account in calculating whether the Instructing Group, or 
16
84894163_20

the relevant requisite Lenders, or the Hedge Counterparties, have consented to the relevant amendment, waiver or other modification in accordance with Clause 42 (Amendments) of the Credit Agreement, Clause 21 (Remedies, Waivers & Amendments) of the Group Intercreditor Agreement or Clause 15 (Remedies, Waivers & Amendments) of the HYD Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable), and any clause relating to amendments in any other Relevant Finance Document.
34.    The Borrower, the Company, the Additional Facility P Lenders and the Facility Agent (for itself and on behalf of the other Finance Parties) hereby agree and acknowledge that Facility P is made available in connection with a “Limited Condition Transaction” for the purposes of the Credit Agreement and that, as such:
(a)    the condition under Clause 3.2 (Further Conditions Precedent) of the Credit Agreement is hereby waived in its entirety by the Additional Facility P Lenders; 
(b)    pursuant to the Limited Condition Transaction exemption from Clause 4.1(j)(ii) (Conditions to Utilisation) of the Credit Agreement, the requirement contained in Clause 4.1(j)(ii) (Conditions to Utilisation) of the Credit Agreement that, in the case of any Utilisation, on the date of the Utilisation Request and the proposed Utilisation Date (x) the Repeating Representations made by the persons identified as making those representations are true in all material respects by reference to the circumstances then existing and (y) no Default is continuing or would result from the proposed Utilisation, shall not apply to any Utilisation of Facility P; and 
(c)    for the avoidance of doubt, Clause 4.1(h) (Conditions to Utilisation) of the Credit Agreement shall not apply to, or operate so as to prevent or limit the making of, any Advance to be made in respect of Facility P.
35.    
(a)    The Company confirms for itself and, in its capacity as Obligors’ Agent, on behalf of each other Guarantor that the obligations of each Guarantor under Clause 28 (Guarantee and Indemnity) of the Credit Agreement continue to apply for the benefit of the Relevant Finance Parties under the Relevant Finance Documents and, for the avoidance of doubt, extend to all Additional Facilities and the Facility P Commitment and further confirms that the security created by each of the Obligors under the Security Documents extends to secure liabilities under all Additional Facilities including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Facility P Commitments.
(b)    Notwithstanding that the Security Trustee may not sign this Additional Facility P Accession Deed, the Security Trustee shall be entitled to rely on paragraph 35(a) and enforce any of its rights in its capacity as security trustee for and on behalf of the Relevant Finance Parties which may arise in respect of such paragraph pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement and the Group Intercreditor Agreement.
17
84894163_20

36.    Each Additional Facility P Lender confirms to each other Finance Party that:
(a)    it has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and such Obligor’s related entities in connection with its participation in Facility P being made available pursuant to this Additional Facility P Accession Deed and has not relied on any information provided to it by any other Finance Party in connection with any Relevant Finance Document; and
(b)    it will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and such Obligors’ related entities while any amount is or may be outstanding under the Credit Agreement or any Additional Facility Commitment is in force.
37.    
(a)    Each of the Additional Facility P Lenders agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Company (acting in its sole discretion), effect any transfer, assignment or Sub-participation of any of its rights, benefits or obligations in respect of any Facility P Commitment under this Additional Facility P Accession Deed prior to the date that such Facility P Commitment has been utilised unless such transfer, novation, assignment or Sub-participation is to an Affiliate of that Additional Facility P Lender provided that in each case:
(i)    (save for in respect of Sub-participations) such Affiliate has at least equivalent creditworthiness as the transferring Additional Facility P Lender;
(ii)    no such transfer, novation, assignment or Sub-participation shall reallocate, reduce or release any Additional Facility P Lender’s obligation to fund its entire Facility P Commitment as at the date of this Additional Facility P Accession Agreement by the required time on each Utilisation Date in the event that any transferee or assignee (or any subsequent transferee or assignee) fails to do so; and
(iii)    each Additional Facility P Lender shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its Facility P Commitments as at the date of this Additional Facility P Accession Agreement (including, without limitation, all rights with respect to waivers, consents, modifications, amendments and confirmations in relation to the Relevant Finance Documents) until after the date that they are utilised, notwithstanding any such transfer, novation, assignment or Sub-participation.
(b)    Each of the Additional Facility P Lenders agrees that, without prejudice to Clause 36.8 (Transfer Deed) of the Credit Agreement, as applicable, each New Lender shall become, by the execution by the Facility Agent of a Transfer Deed substantially in the form of Schedule 3 (Transfer Deed) to this Additional Facility P Accession Deed, bound by the terms of this Additional 
18
84894163_20

Facility P Accession Deed as if it were an original party hereto as an Additional Facility P Lender and shall acquire the same rights, grant the same consents and assume the same obligations towards the other parties to this Additional Facility P Accession Deed as would have been acquired, granted and assumed had the New Lender been an original party to this Additional Facility P Accession Deed as an Additional Facility P Lender.
38.    We, the Additional Facility P Lenders, acknowledge and agree that the Lender Asset Security Release Confirmation has been delivered by the Facility Agent to the Lenders and that the Security Trustee is therefore irrevocably authorised in accordance with Clause 42.8(a) (Asset Security Release) of the Credit Agreement to execute such documents as may be required to ensure that the Security (other than any Security required to be granted under paragraph (b) of the definition of “80% Security Test”) is released.
39.    The Facility Office and address for notices of each Additional Facility P Lender for the purposes of Clause 39 (Notices and Delivery of Information) of the Credit Agreement will be that notified by each Additional Facility P Lender to the Facility Agent.
40.    If a term of this Additional Facility P Accession Deed is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any jurisdiction, that will not affect:
(a)    the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other term of this Additional Facility P Accession Deed; or
(b)    the legality, validity or enforceability in other jurisdictions of that or any other term of this Additional Facility P Accession Deed.
41.    Clause 46 (Jurisdiction) of the Credit Agreement is incorporated into this Additional Facility P Accession Deed as if set out in full and as if references in that clause to “this Agreement” or a “Relevant Finance Document” are to this Additional Facility P Accession Deed.
42.    This Additional Facility P Accession Deed may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by each party on separate counterparts.  Each counterpart is an original, but all counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed counterpart signature page of this Additional Facility P Accession Deed by e-mail (PDF) or telecopy shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Additional Facility P Accession Deed.
43.    This Additional Facility P Accession Deed and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed by, and construed in accordance with, English law.
44.    ACCESSION TO THE HYD INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT
Each Additional Facility P Lender hereby agrees with each other person who is or becomes party to the HYD Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof that, with effect on and from the date hereof or, if later, the date on which that 
19
84894163_20

Additional Facility P Lender becomes a party to this Additional Facility P Accession Deed as a lender, it will be bound by the HYD Intercreditor Agreement as a Senior Finance Party and as a Senior Lender as if it had been an original party thereto in such capacity.
45.    ACCESSION TO THE GROUP INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT
Each Additional Facility P Lender hereby agrees with each other person who is or becomes party to the Group Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof that, with effect on and from the date hereof or, if later, the date on which that Additional Facility P Lender becomes a party to this Additional Facility P Accession Deed as a lender, it will be bound by the Group Intercreditor Agreement as a Senior Finance Party and as a Senior Lender as if it had been an original party thereto in such capacity.

(dd)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, where any provision of this Agreement grants any rights (“Rights”) to, or refers to or otherwise contemplates any consent, approval, release, waiver, agreement, notification or other step or action (each an “Action”) which may be required from or by, any person:

(iv)    in respect of Liabilities or Creditors (or other persons) for which the relevant Discharge Date has occurred at or prior to such time or concurrently with any Action coming into effect,
(v)    unless otherwise agreed or specified by the Company, no Rights shall accrue or be enforceable and such Action shall not be required (or be required from any person that is a party thereto) and no such provision shall, or shall be construed so as to, in any way prohibit or restrict the rights or actions of any member of the Group. Further, for the avoidance of doubt, no references to any agreement which is not in existence (or under which no debt obligations are outstanding) shall, or shall be construed so as to, in any way prohibit or restrict the rights or actions of any member of the Group (and no Rights shall be granted to, or Action shall be required from, any party thereto).
(ee)    For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the express terms of this Agreement and any other applicable Debt Document, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit any debt exchange, non-cash rollover or other similar or equivalent transaction in relation to any Liabilities.

(a)    Unless expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, a person who is not a Party has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 (the “Third Parties Rights Act”) to enforce or to enjoy the benefit of any term of this Agreement.
(b)    Notwithstanding any term of this Agreement, the Consent of any person who is not a Party is not required to rescind or vary this Agreement at any time.

For the purposes of the preceding sentence, upon any person becoming a Senior Secured Noteholder, Second Lien Noteholder, High Yield Noteholder or Unsecured Noteholder, such person shall be deemed a Party provided that such person is deemed to be a Party under the terms of the relevant Notes Indenture.
1.4    Waiver and Termination
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Debt Document, any Party may, together with exercising any right pursuant to paragraph (f) of Clause 29.1 (Required Consents), unilaterally waive, relinquish, or otherwise release or decline the right to receive or benefit from, any right in relation to a Debt Document, including in relation to Transaction Security or any guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss in respect of any Liabilities owed to it by a Debtor or Security Grantor with the prior consent of the Company; and by written notice from the Company to each Agent party to this Agreement and the Security Agent at such time (a "Unilateral Waiver").
(b)    Following a Unilateral Waiver by a Party in accordance with paragraph (a) above, the Security Agent shall (i) be deemed to have unilaterally waived, relinquished, or otherwise released or declined the right to receive or benefit from the same or any substantially equivalent right to the rights subject to such Unilateral Waiver, in connection with any parallel debt and/or joint and several creditorship structure relating to the relevant Liabilities; and (ii) at the request and cost of the Company, take any action or execute any document 
69
84894163_20

reasonably requested by the Company which is necessary or desirable to give effect to or evidence the releases and other actions described in this Clause 1.4.
(c)    Any Unilateral Waiver by a Party in accordance with paragraph (a) above shall also be deemed to constitute a waiver of the rights of such Party (and the Security Agent, as relevant) under Clause 18 (Application of Proceeds), Clause 19 (Equalisation) and any other equalisation or loss sharing provisions under any Debt Document in so far as such provisions relate to the rights subject to such Unilateral Waiver, including such that to the extent that the Liabilities of a Creditor would, but for the Unilateral Waiver, have had the benefit of any guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss or Transaction Security under which Group Recoveries are received by the Security Agent or other Creditors, that Creditor will not benefit from the application of, or receive any payments in respect of, such Group Recoveries pursuant to Clause 18 (Application of Proceeds) in respect of those Liabilities; and if, as a result of this paragraph (c), the amount of a payment to a Creditor pursuant to Clause 18 (Application of Proceeds) is lower than the amount which would have been so payable to that Creditor if no Unilateral Waiver was given (the difference for that Creditor being its "Shortfall"), for the purposes of Clause 19 (Equalisation) its Exposure will be deemed to be reduced by an amount equal to the Shortfall.
(d)    To the extent that the consent of any Creditor or other Party (in each case other than the Company and each Party granting such Unilateral Waiver) would be required to give effect to any Unilateral Waiver or any other action or matter set out in this Clause 1.4, such Creditor or other Party shall be deemed to have given such consent.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Debt Document:
(i)    no breach of any representation, warranty, undertaking, obligation or other term of (or Default or Event of Default under) a Debt Document shall be deemed or construed to have occurred as a direct or indirect result of a Unilateral Waiver or any actions or steps implemented or taken to give effect to that Unilateral Waiver; and
(ii)    for the purpose of testing or satisfying any requirement (or any qualifier or definition based upon such a requirement) in any Debt Document that any guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss or any Transaction Security must, to the extent legally possible or subject to the Agreed Security Principles (or both), be given, or expressed to be given, to all Secured Parties in respect of their Liabilities, any Liabilities the subject of a Unilateral Waiver shall be deemed to have been given or expressed to have been given that guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss or any Transaction Security.
70
84894163_20

1.5    No Recourse
No Primary Creditor will have any recourse to or shall make any claim or demand for payment from the Ultimate Parent (as defined in the Original Senior Facilities Agreement) or any other person that is not party to a Debt Document (and to the extent the Ultimate Parent or any other person is a party to a Debt Document there shall only be recourse to the extent of its liability under the terms of such Debt Document) in respect of any term of any Debt Document, any statements by the Ultimate Parent, or otherwise.
1.6    Personal Liability
Where any natural person gives a certificate or other document or otherwise gives a representation or statement on behalf of any of the parties to the Debt Documents pursuant to any provision thereof and such certificate or other document, representation or statement proves to be incorrect, the individual shall incur no personal liability in consequence of such certificate, other document, representation or statement being incorrect save where such individual acted fraudulently in giving such certificate, other document, representation or statement (in which case any liability of such individual shall be determined in accordance with applicable law) and each such individual may rely on this Clause subject to Clause 1.3 (Third Party Rights) and the provisions of the Third Parties Rights Act.
2.    RANKING AND PRIORITY

(ii)    second, the Second Lien Liabilities (other than the Second Lien Agent Liabilities) pari passu and without any preference between them.
(b)    For the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly acknowledged and agreed that any Hedging Liability that constitutes an Excluded Swap Obligation shall not be secured by the assets of any Non-ECP Debtor.
2.3    Intra-Group Liabilities and Subordinated Liabilities
(a)    Each of the Parties agrees that the Intra-Group Liabilities and Subordinated Liabilities are postponed and subordinated to the Liabilities owed by the Debtors or the Security Grantors to the Primary Creditors.
(b)    This Agreement does not purport to rank any of the Intra-Group Liabilities and Subordinated Liabilities as between themselves.
2.4    Additional and/or Refinancing Debt
(a)    The Creditors acknowledge that the Debtors (or any of them) may wish to (a) incur incremental Borrowing Liabilities and/or Guarantee Liabilities in respect of incremental Borrowing Liabilities or (b) refinance Borrowing Liabilities and/or incur Guarantee Liabilities in respect of any such refinancing of Borrowing Liabilities, which in any such case are intended to rank and/or share any existing Security pari passu with any existing Liabilities and/or to rank behind any existing Liabilities and/or to share in any existing Security 
72
84894163_20

behind any existing Liabilities. The Creditors confirm that if and to the extent such a financing or refinancing and such ranking and such Security is permitted by the terms of the Debt Documents at such time, they will (at the cost of the Debtors) co-operate with the Debtors with a view to enabling such financing or refinancing and such sharing in the Security to take place. In particular, but without limitation, the Senior Lenders, the Senior Secured Noteholders, the Pari Passu Creditors, the Second Lien Lenders, the Second Lien Noteholders, the High Yield Lenders,  the High Yield Noteholders, the Unsecured Lenders and the Unsecured Noteholders hereby authorise and direct their Agent to and such Agent shall, and the Hedge Counterparties agree that they shall, execute any amendment to this Agreement and such other Debt Documents that are reasonably required to reflect such arrangements to the extent such financing, refinancing and/or sharing is permitted by such Debt Documents.
(b)    The Debtors may not incur any Borrowing Liabilities or Guarantee Liabilities which:
(i)    fall within paragraph (c) of the definition of Secured Obligations; but
(ii)    do not fall within paragraphs (a) or (b) of the definition of Secured Obligations,
(iii)    unless additional Security is granted in favour of the Secured Parties over the assets secured by each Pre-Effective Date Security Document.
2.5    Anti-layering
(a)    Until the Second Lien Discharge Date, no Debtor shall, without the approval of the Majority Second Lien Creditors, issue or allow to remain outstanding any Liabilities that:
(i)    are secured or expressed to be secured by Transaction Security on a basis junior to the Senior Secured Liabilities but senior to the Second Lien Liabilities; 
(ii)    are expressed to rank or rank so that they are subordinated to any of the Senior Secured Liabilities but are senior to the Second Lien Liabilities; or
(iii)    are contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Senior Secured Liabilities and senior in right of payment to the Second Lien Liabilities.
(b)    The foregoing shall not prevent:
(i)    subordination arising by operation of law; or
(ii)    a Debtor from incurring additional Senior Liabilities in accordance with the terms of the Senior Finance Documents which are expressed 
73
84894163_20

to be secured by the Transaction Security on a pari passu super senior basis to the other Senior Liabilities and/or which are contractually senior in right of payment to any of the other Senior Liabilities.

3.1    Payments of Senior Secured Creditor Liabilities
(a)    The Debtors and Security Grantors may make Payments in respect of the Senior Secured Creditor Liabilities at any time provided that, following the occurrence of a Senior Acceleration Event, a Senior Secured Notes Acceleration Event, a Pari Passu Debt Acceleration Event or an Insolvency Event, no Debtor may make (and no Senior Secured Creditor may receive) Payments of the Senior Lender Liabilities, Pari Passu Debt Liabilities or Senior Secured Notes Liabilities except from Group Recoveries distributed in accordance with Clause 18 (Application of Proceeds).
(b)    For the avoidance of doubt, the proviso in paragraph (a) above:

(ii)    will not prevent the accrual or capitalisation of interest (including default interest) in accordance with the Secured Debt Documents;
(iii)    will not prevent the payment of any Senior Secured Notes Trustee Amounts, any Senior Agent Liabilities and/or any Pari Passu Debt Representative Amounts; and
(iv)    will not prevent the payment of audit fees, directors’ fees, taxes and other proper and incidental expenses required to maintain existence.
3.2    Amendments and Waivers

(f)    any Security, guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss giving effect to, or arising as a result of the effect of, any netting or set-off arrangement relating to the Ancillary Facilities for the purpose of netting debit and credit balances arising under the Ancillary Facilities.

(c)    The Senior Agent shall, at the request of the Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors notify the Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors of the sum of:
(i)    the amounts described in paragraphs (a)(C)(2) and (a)(C)(3) above; and

(d)    If more than one Purchasing Senior Secured Creditor wishes to require a Senior Lender Liabilities Transfer in accordance with paragraph (a) above, each such Purchasing Senior Secured Creditor shall acquire the Senior Lender Liabilities pro rata, in the proportion that its credit participation bears to the aggregate credit participations of all the Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors. Any Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors wishing to require a Senior Lender Liabilities Transfer shall inform the Senior Secured Notes Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the relevant Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) in accordance with the terms of the relevant Pari Passu Debt Documents, who will determine (consulting with each other as required) the appropriate share of the Senior Lender Liabilities to be acquired by each such Purchasing Senior Secured Creditor and who shall inform each such Purchasing Senior Secured Creditor accordingly. Furthermore, the Senior Secured Notes Trustee or the Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) (as applicable) shall promptly inform the Senior Agent of the Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors intention to require the transfer of the Senior Lender Liabilities.

(a)    The Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors may, by giving not less than ten days’ notice to the Security Agent, require, at the same time as a Senior Lender Liabilities Transfer under Clause 3.8 (Option to purchase: Senior Secured Notes Creditors and Pari Passu Creditors), a Hedge Transfer if:
(i)    that transfer is lawful and otherwise permitted by the terms of the Hedging Agreements in which case no Debtor or member of the Group shall be entitled to withhold its Consent to that transfer;
(ii)    any conditions (other than the Consent of, or any consultation with, any Debtor or member of the Group) relating to that transfer contained in the Hedging Agreements are complied with;

(iv)    as a result of that transfer, the Hedge Counterparties have no further actual or contingent liability to any Debtor under the Hedging Agreements;
(v)    an indemnity is provided from each Purchasing Senior Secured Creditor (but, for the avoidance of doubt, this does not include any Senior Secured Notes Representative or, in the case of Pari Passu Debt, the applicable Pari Passu Debt Representative(s)) (or from another third party acceptable to the relevant Hedge Counterparty) in a form reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Hedge Counterparty in respect of all losses which may be sustained or incurred by that Hedge Counterparty in consequence of any sum received or recovered by that Hedge Counterparty being required (or it being alleged that it is required) to be paid back by or clawed back from the Hedge Counterparty for any reason;
(vi)    that transfer is made without recourse to, or representation or warranty from, the relevant Hedge Counterparty, except that the relevant Hedge Counterparty shall be deemed to have represented and warranted on the date of that transfer that it has the corporate power to effect that transfer and it has taken all necessary action to authorise the making by it of that transfer;
(vii)    the Second Lien Creditors have not exercised their rights under Clause 8.14 (Hedge Transfer: Purchasing Second Lien Creditors) or, having exercised such rights, have failed to complete the Hedge Transfer

concerned in accordance with Clause 8.14 (Hedge Transfer: Purchasing Second Lien Creditors);  and
(viii)    the High Yield Creditors have not exercised their rights under Clause 9.16 (Hedge Transfer: High Yield Creditors) or, having exercised such rights, have failed to complete the Hedge Transfer concerned in accordance with Clause 9.16 (Hedge Transfer: High Yield Creditors).
(b)    The Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors (acting as a whole) and any Hedge Counterparty may agree (in respect of the Hedging Agreements (or one or more of them) to which that Hedge Counterparty is a party) that a Hedge Transfer required by all the Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors (acting as a whole) pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall not apply to that Hedging Agreement(s) or to the Hedging Liabilities and Hedge Counterparty Obligations under that Hedging Agreement(s).
(c)    If more than one Purchasing Senior Secured Creditor wishes to require a Hedge Transfer in accordance with paragraph (a) above, each such Purchasing Senior Secured Creditor shall acquire the relevant Hedging Liabilities pro rata, in the proportion that its credit participation bears to the aggregate credit participations of all the Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors. Any Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors wishing to require a Hedge Transfer shall inform the Senior Secured Notes Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture or the relevant Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) in accordance with the terms of the relevant Pari Passu Debt Documents, who will determine (consulting with each other as required) the appropriate share of the relevant Hedging Liabilities to be acquired by each such Purchasing Senior Secured Creditor and who shall inform each such Purchasing Senior Secured Creditor accordingly. Furthermore, the Senior Secured Notes Trustee or the Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) (as applicable) shall promptly inform the relevant Hedge Counterparty(ies) of the Purchasing Senior Secured Creditors intention to require the Hedge Transfer.

(i)    if the Payment is a Scheduled Payment arising under the relevant Hedging Agreement;

(iv)    to the extent that:
83
84894163_20

(A)    the relevant Debtor’s obligation to make the Payment arises from a Credit Related Close-Out in relation to that Hedging Agreement; and
(B)    no Senior Default, Senior Secured Notes Default or Pari Passu Debt Default is continuing at the time of the Payment;

(B)    the Payment arises from a close-out or termination arising as a result of an Event of Default in respect of which the Hedge Counterparty is the Defaulting Party occurring under the Hedging Agreement (“Event of Default” and “Defaulting Party” being as defined in the ISDA Master Agreement) or an equivalent event (in the case of a Hedging Agreement not based on an ISDA Master Agreement),
in each case provided that no Distress Event has occurred and is continuing;
(viii)    if the Debtor’s obligation to make the Payment arises as a result of a close-out or termination arising as a result of the relevant Debtor terminating or closing-out the relevant Hedging Agreement as a result of:

(1)    an Illegality or Tax Event or Tax Event Upon Merger (each as defined in the 1992 ISDA Master Agreement); or

(C)    in relation to a Hedging Agreement which is not based on an ISDA Master Agreement, any event similar in meaning and effect to an event described in paragraphs (A) or (B) above has occurred in respect of that Hedging Agreement; or
(D)    a Termination Event (other than a Termination Event described in paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) above) in respect of which the Hedge Counterparty is an Affected Party (“Termination Event” and “Affected Party” being as defined in the relevant Hedging Agreement, in the case of a Hedging Agreement based on an ISDA Master Agreement) or an equivalent termination event (in the case of a Hedging Agreement not based on an ISDA Master Agreement),

(i)    any Scheduled Payment due from that Hedge Counterparty to a Debtor under a Hedging Agreement to which they are both party is due and unpaid; or
(ii)    an Acceleration Event or an Insolvency Event has occurred, except from Group Recoveries distributed in accordance with Clause 18 (Application of Proceeds).
For the avoidance of doubt, no Payment will be due and unpaid by a Hedge Counterparty if a Hedge Counterparty is entitled to withhold any payment pursuant to section 2(a)(iii) of the ISDA Master Agreement or any provision similar in meaning and effect to section 2(a)(iii) of the ISDA Master Agreement (in the case of a Hedging Agreement not based on an ISDA Master Agreement).
(c)    Failure by a Debtor to make a Payment to a Hedge Counterparty which results solely from the operation of paragraph (b) above shall, without prejudice to Clause 4.4 (Payment obligations continue), not result in a default (however described) in respect of that Debtor under that Hedging Agreement or any other Secured Debt Document.
85
84894163_20

(d)    Nothing in this Agreement obliges a Hedge Counterparty to make a payment to a Debtor under a Hedging Agreement to which they are both party if any Scheduled Payment due from that Debtor to the Hedge Counterparty under that Hedging Agreement is due and unpaid. For the avoidance of doubt, this provision shall not affect any Payment which is due from a Hedge Counterparty to a Debtor as a result of a Hedging Agreement to which they are both a party being terminated or closed-out.
4.4    Payment obligations continue
No Debtor shall be released from the liability to make any Payment (including of default interest, which shall continue to accrue) under any Debt Document by the operation of Clauses 4.2 (Restriction on Payment: Hedging Liabilities) and 4.3 (Permitted Payments: Hedging Liabilities) even if its obligation to make that Payment is restricted at any time by the terms of any of those Clauses.
4.5    No acquisition of Hedging Liabilities
Without prejudice to Clause 4.6 (Amendments and Waivers: Hedging Agreements), following a Distress Event the Debtors shall not, and the Company shall procure that no other member of the Group will:

(i)    that amendment or waiver does not breach another term of this Agreement; and
(ii)    such amendment or waiver would not result in a breach of the terms of the Senior Facilities Agreement, the Senior Secured Notes Indenture(s) or the Pari Passu Debt Documents.
86
84894163_20

4.7    Security: Hedge Counterparties
The Hedge Counterparties may not take, accept or receive the benefit of any Security, guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss from any Debtor, any member of the Group or any Security Grantor in respect of the Hedging Liabilities other than:
(a)    the Common Transaction Security and (to the extent applicable) the Transaction Security granted under the Pre-Effective Date Security Documents;
(b)    any guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss contained in:
(i)    the form of the Senior Facilities Agreement as at the Effective Date;

(iv)    the relevant Hedging Agreement no greater in extent than any of those referred to in paragraphs (i) to (iii) above;
(c)    as otherwise contemplated by Clause 3.3 (Security and guarantees: Senior Secured Creditors); and
(d)    the indemnities contained in the ISDA Master Agreements (in the case of a Hedging Agreement which is based on an ISDA Master Agreement) or any indemnities which are similar in meaning and effect to those indemnities (in the case of a Hedging Agreement which is not based on an ISDA Master Agreement).
4.8    Restriction on Enforcement: Hedge Counterparties
Subject to Clause 4.9 (Permitted Enforcement: Hedge Counterparties) and Clause 4.10 (Required Enforcement: Hedge Counterparties) and without prejudice to each Hedge Counterparty’s rights under Clauses 16.2 (Enforcement instructions) and 16.3 (Manner of enforcement), the Hedge Counterparties shall not take any Enforcement Action in respect of any of the Hedging Liabilities or any of the hedging transactions under any of the Hedging Agreements at any time.
4.9    Permitted Enforcement: Hedge Counterparties
(a)    To the extent it is able to do so under the relevant Hedging Agreement, a Hedge Counterparty may terminate or close-out in whole or in part any hedging transaction under that Hedging Agreement prior to its stated maturity:
(i)    if, prior to a Distress Event, the Company has certified to that Hedge Counterparty that the termination or close-out would not result in a breach of any of the following: (A) the Senior Facilities Agreement; (B) the Senior Secured Notes Indenture(s) pursuant to which any Senior Secured Notes remain outstanding; or (C) the Pari Passu Debt 
87
84894163_20

Documents pursuant to which any Pari Passu Debt remains outstanding;

(iii)    if:

(2)    an event similar in meaning and effect to a Force Majeure Event (as defined in paragraph (B) below),
has occurred in respect of that Hedging Agreement;
(B)    in relation to a Hedging Agreement which is based on the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement, an Illegality or Tax Event, Tax Event Upon Merger or a Force Majeure Event (each as defined in the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement) has occurred in respect of that Hedging Agreement; or

(v)    if the obligations owing by any Debtor under the relevant Hedging Agreement cease to be secured by substantially the same Security as that which secures any other Senior Secured Liabilities on a pari passu basis (or, if there are no other Senior Secured Liabilities outstanding at the time, by the Security which secured such other Senior Secured Liabilities immediately prior to their discharge); or
(vi)    on or immediately following the later to occur of the Senior Lender Discharge Date, the Pari Passu Debt Discharge Date, the Senior Secured Notes Discharge Date and the Second Lien Discharge Date; provided that there is no refinancing of any debt discharged on any such discharge date and provided that there are no classes of debt (in each case, other than Hedging Liabilities, Subordinated Liabilities or 
88
84894163_20

Intra-Group Liabilities) for the purposes of this Agreement following the occurrence of all such discharge dates.
(b)    If a Debtor has defaulted on any Payment due under a Hedging Agreement (after allowing any applicable notice or grace periods) and the default has continued unwaived for more than five Business Days after notice of that default has been given by the relevant Hedge Counterparty to the relevant Debtor and to the Security Agent pursuant to paragraph (m) of Clause 26.3 (Notification of prescribed events), the relevant Hedge Counterparty:
(i)    may, to the extent it is able to do so under the relevant Hedging Agreement, terminate or close-out in whole or in part all hedging transactions under that Hedging Agreement; and
(ii)    until such time as the Security Agent has given notice to that Hedge Counterparty that the Transaction Security is being enforced (or that any formal steps are being taken to enforce the Transaction Security), shall be entitled to exercise any right it might otherwise have to sue for, commence or join legal or arbitration proceedings against any Debtor to recover any Hedging Liabilities due under that Hedging Agreement.
(c)    After the occurrence of an Insolvency Event, each Hedge Counterparty shall be entitled to exercise any right it may otherwise have in respect of that Debtor or member of the Group to:
(i)    prematurely close-out or terminate any Hedging Liabilities of that Debtor or member of the Group;
(ii)    make a demand under any guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss given by that Debtor or member of the Group in respect of any Hedging Liabilities;
(iii)    exercise any right of set-off or take or receive any Payment in respect of any Hedging Liabilities of that Debtor or member of the Group; or

89
84894163_20

Acceleration Event, Pari Passu Debt Acceleration Event or Senior Secured Notes Acceleration Event (as applicable) has occurred; and
(ii)    delivery to it of a subsequent notice from the Security Agent (acting on the instructions of an Instructing Group) instructing it to do so.
(b)    Paragraph (a) above shall not apply to the extent that that Senior Acceleration Event, Pari Passu Debt Acceleration Event or Senior Secured Notes Acceleration Event (as applicable) occurred as a result of an arrangement made between any Debtor and any Senior Secured Creditor with the purpose of bringing about that Senior Acceleration Event, Pari Passu Debt Acceleration Event or Senior Secured Notes Acceleration Event (as applicable).
(c)    If a Hedge Counterparty is entitled to terminate or close-out any hedging transaction under paragraph (b) of Clause 4.9 (Permitted Enforcement: Hedge Counterparties) (or would have been able to if that Hedge Counterparty had given the notice referred to in that paragraph) but has not terminated or closed out each such hedging transaction, that Hedge Counterparty shall promptly terminate or close-out in full each such hedging transaction following a request to do so by the Security Agent (acting on the instructions of an Instructing Group).
4.11    Treatment of Payments due to Debtors on termination of hedging transactions
(a)    If, on termination of any hedging transaction under any Hedging Agreement occurring after a Distress Event, a settlement amount or other amount (following the application of any Close-Out Netting, Payment Netting or Inter-Hedging Agreement Netting in respect of that Hedging Agreement) falls due from a Hedge Counterparty to the relevant Debtor then that amount shall be paid by that Hedge Counterparty to the Security Agent, treated as the proceeds of enforcement of the Transaction Security and applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(b)    The payment of that amount by the Hedge Counterparty to the Security Agent in accordance with paragraph (a) above shall discharge the Hedge Counterparty’s obligation to pay that amount to that Debtor.
4.12    Terms of Hedging Agreements
In the case of each Hedging Agreement entered into after the Effective Date, the Hedge Counterparties (to the extent party to the Hedging Agreement in question) and the Debtors party to the Hedging Agreements shall ensure that, at all times:
(a)    each Hedging Agreement documents only Offsetting Swaps and/or other hedging transactions permitted by the terms of the Senior Finance Documents, the Pari Passu Debt Documents, the Senior Secured Notes Finance Documents and the Second Lien Finance Documents, provided that this paragraph (a) applies only to Debtors;
90
84894163_20

(b)    each Hedging Agreement is based on or incorporates by reference either (i) an ISDA Master Agreement or (ii) another framework agreement which is similar in effect to an ISDA Master Agreement;
(c)    in the event of a termination of the hedging transaction entered into under a Hedging Agreement, whether as a result of:
(i)    a Termination Event or an Event of Default, each as defined in the relevant Hedging Agreement (in the case of a Hedging Agreement which is based on an ISDA Master Agreement); or
(ii)    an event similar in meaning and effect to either of those described in paragraph (i) above (in the case of a Hedging Agreement which is not based on an ISDA Master Agreement),
that Hedging Agreement will:
(A)    if it is based on a 1992 ISDA Master Agreement, provide for payments under the “Second Method” and will make no material amendment to section 6(e) (Payments on Early Termination) of the ISDA Master Agreement;
(B)    if it is based on a 2002 ISDA Master Agreement, make no material amendment to the provisions of section 6(e) (Payments on Early Termination) of the ISDA Master Agreement; or
(C)    if it is not based on an ISDA Master Agreement, provide for any other method the effect of which is that the party to which that event is referable will be entitled to receive payment under the relevant termination provisions if the net replacement value of all terminated transactions entered into under that Hedging Agreement is in its favour;
(d)    each Hedging Agreement will provide that the relevant Hedge Counterparty will be entitled to designate an Early Termination Date (as defined in the relevant ISDA Master Agreement) or otherwise be able to terminate each transaction under such Hedging Agreement if so required pursuant to Clause 4.10 (Required Enforcement: Hedge Counterparties);
(e)    each Hedging Agreement will permit (but shall not require) the relevant Debtor to exercise its rights provided for in (and in accordance with) Clause 4.13 (Termination of Hedging); and
(f)    each Hedging Agreement states that it is a Hedging Agreement for the purposes of this Agreement.
4.13    Termination of Hedging
Each Debtor shall have the right (but not the obligation) to:
91
84894163_20

(a)    terminate and cancel any Hedging Agreement upon 5 Business Days prior written notice to the relevant Hedge Counterparty (with a copy to the Security Agent), provided that there are no outstanding hedging transactions thereunder;
(b)    terminate (in full or in part) any transaction under a Hedging Agreement with the prior written consent of the relevant Hedge Counterparty, provided that no Senior Default, Senior Secured Notes Default or Pari Passu Debt Default has occurred and is continuing at such time; and/or
(c)    notwithstanding (b) above, terminate in full (or in part) any transaction under a Hedging Agreement if at any time the financial indebtedness underlying such transaction has been reduced and the Debtor party to that Hedging Agreement gives notice to the relevant Hedge Counterparty specifying that there has been a reduction of financial indebtedness and the Debtor has elected to terminate the transactions entered into to hedge risks in relation to such financial indebtedness (each such transaction, a “Relevant Transaction”). Only a portion of each outstanding Relevant Transaction shall be treated as an Affected Transaction under and as defined in the relevant Hedging Agreement, such portion being a percentage of the Relevant Transaction equal to or less than (if so determined by the relevant Debtor) the percentage by which the relevant financial indebtedness has been reduced.
4.14    No Outstanding Transactions
If a Hedging Agreement is terminated by the relevant Debtor in circumstances where there are no outstanding transactions thereunder, as provided for in paragraph (a) of Clause 4.13 (Termination of Hedging), the Hedge Counterparty to that Hedging Agreement shall immediately cease to be a Hedge Counterparty in respect of that Hedging Agreement for the purposes of this Agreement and shall be discharged from further obligations to the Parties under this Agreement in respect of that Hedging Agreement and their respective rights against one another in respect of that Hedging Agreement shall be cancelled (except in each case for those rights which arose prior to such termination).
4.15    Offsetting Swaps
A Debtor may enter into a secured hedging transaction (an “Offsetting Swap”) with a Hedge Counterparty that has the economic effect of fully offsetting the mark to market movements of all or part of an existing hedging transaction under a Hedging Agreement (each an “Existing Unmatured Hedge”).
4.16    Terminations of Offsetting Swaps
The relevant Debtor shall, and the Company shall procure that the relevant Debtor shall, promptly terminate a proportion of any Offsetting Swap upon the termination or close-out of the corresponding Existing Unmatured Hedge, such proportion to be equal to the proportion of such Existing Unmatured Hedge that has been terminated.
92
84894163_20

5.    Guarantee and indemnity to hedge counterparties
5.1    Guarantee and Indemnity
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss in favour of any Hedge Counterparty under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties) shall only apply and take effect on and from such time as a Debtor provides a guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss to another Senior Secured Creditor (other than a Hedge Counterparty) under or pursuant to a Secured Debt Document.
(b)    Each Debtor irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and severally:
(i)    guarantees to each Hedge Counterparty punctual performance by each other Debtor of all that Debtor’s payment obligations under the Hedging Agreements;
(ii)    undertakes with each Hedge Counterparty that whenever another Debtor does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Hedging Agreement, that Debtor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it was the principal obligor; and
(iii)    agrees with each Hedge Counterparty that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Hedge Counterparty immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of a Debtor not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Hedging Agreement on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by a Debtor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties) if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.
5.2    Continuing guarantee
This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by any Debtor under the Hedging Agreements, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.
5.3    Reinstatement
If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Debtor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Hedge Counterparty in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Debtor under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties) will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.
93
84894163_20

5.4    Waiver of defences
The obligations of each Debtor under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties) will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties), would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties) (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Hedge Counterparty) including:
(a)    any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Debtor or other person;
(b)    the release of any other Debtor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any member of the Group;
(c)    the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, any Debtor or other person or any non-presentation or non- observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security;
(d)    any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of a Debtor or any other person;
(e)    any amendment, novation, supplement, extension restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of a Hedging Agreement or any other document or security including, without limitation, any change in the purpose of, any extension of or increase in any amount due or the addition of any new Hedging Liability under any Hedging Agreement or other document or security;
(f)    any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Hedging Agreement or any other document or security; or
(g)    any insolvency or similar proceedings.
5.5    Debtor Intent
Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 5.4 (Waiver of defences), each Debtor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Hedging Agreements or amount made available under any of the Hedging Agreements.
5.6    Immediate Recourse
Each Debtor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Hedge Counterparty (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from that Debtor under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties). This waiver 
94
84894163_20

applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Hedging Agreement to the contrary.
5.7    Appropriations
Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Debtors under or in connection with the Hedging Agreements have been irrevocably paid in full, each Hedge Counterparty (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:
(a)    refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Hedge Counterparty (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and no Debtor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and
(b)    hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Debtor or on account of any Debtor’s liability under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties).
5.8    Deferral of Debtors’ Rights
Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Debtors under or in connection with the Hedging Agreements have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Security Agent otherwise directs, no Debtor will exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Hedging Agreements or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties):
(a)    to be indemnified by a Debtor;
(b)    to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Debtor’s obligations under the Hedging Agreements;
(c)    to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Hedge Counterparties under the Hedging Agreements or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Hedging Agreements by any Hedge Counterparty;
(d)    to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Debtor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which any Debtor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties);
(e)    to exercise any right of set-off against any Debtor; and/or
(f)    to claim or prove as a creditor of any Debtor in competition with any Hedge Counterparty.
95
84894163_20

If a Debtor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Security Agent or as the Security Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 18 (Application of Proceeds).
5.9    Release of Debtors’ Rights of Contribution
If any Debtor (a “Retiring Debtor”) ceases to be a Debtor in accordance with the terms of any Secured Debt Document for the purpose of any sale or other disposal of that Retiring Debtor then on the date such Retiring Debtor ceases to be a Debtor:
(a)    that Retiring Debtor is released by each other Debtor from any liability (whether past, present or future and whether actual or contingent) to make a contribution to any other Debtor arising by reason of the performance by any other Debtor of its obligations under the Hedging Agreements; and
(b)    each other Debtor waives any rights it may have by reason of the performance of its obligations under the Hedging Agreements to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Hedge Counterparties under any Hedging Agreement or of any other security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, any Hedging Agreement where such rights or security are granted by or in relation to the assets of the Retiring Debtor.
5.10    Additional security
This guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by any Hedge Counterparty.
5.11    Limitation of Liabilities of United States Guarantors
Each Restricted Debtor and each of the Hedge Counterparties (by its acceptance of the benefits of the guarantee under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties)) hereby confirms its intention that this guarantee should not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for the purposes of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, the United States Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or any similar Federal, state or foreign law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Restricted Debtor and each of the Hedge Counterparties (by its acceptance of the benefits of the guarantee under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties)) hereby irrevocably agrees that its obligations under this Clause 5 (Guarantee and Indemnity to Hedge Counterparties) shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other (contingent or otherwise) liabilities of such Restricted Debtor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any rights to contribution pursuant to any agreement providing for an equitable contribution among such Restricted Debtor and the other Guarantors, result in the obligations of such Restricted Debtor in respect of such maximum amount not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.
(a)    Each Restricted Debtor formed in the state of California waives, to the extent permitted by law, for the benefit of the Hedge Counterparties:
96
84894163_20

(i)    any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal;
(ii)    in accordance with Section 2855 of the California Civil Code, any and all rights and defenses available to it by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code;
(iii)    any defense based upon any Hedge Counterparty’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Hedging Agreements, except behaviour that amounts to bad faith;
(iv)    any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, that are or might be in conflict with the terms of this guarantee and any legal or equitable discharge of such Restricted Debtor’s obligations hereunder;
(v)    the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Restricted Debtor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof;
(vi)    any rights to set offs, recoupments and counterclaims;
(vii)    other than as expressly set forth in Clause 5.1 (Guarantee and Indemnity), promptness, diligence, notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonour, notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance of this guarantee, notices of default under this Agreement, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the guarantied obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to any Borrower, notices of any of the matters referred to in Clause 5.6 (Immediate Recourse) and any right to consent to any thereof; and
(viii)    any right to revoke such Restricted Debtor’s obligations hereunder as to future obligations.
(b)    Notwithstanding any term or provision of this Agreement, with respect to any US Borrower, no direct or indirect CFC Subsidiary of such US Borrower, FSHCO or Subsidiary of either of the foregoing shall be required to make any payment on behalf of any US Borrower; guarantee or support the obligations of, or pledge any of its assets as security for the obligations of, any US Borrower; and no more than 65 per cent. of the total combined voting power of all classes of all voting stock or voting shares, or any other voting equity interest in any direct CFC Subsidiary or FSHCO, shall be pledged as security for the obligations of any US Borrower.  For these purposes, “US Borrower” has the meaning given to such term in the Senior Facilities Agreement and any Second Lien Facilities Agreement (as applicable), “CFC Subsidiary” means each Subsidiary of a US Borrower that is incorporated or organised under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or territory thereof and is a “controlled foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 957 of the Code) and “FSHCO” means any entity, substantially all the assets of which consist of equity interests (or equity interests and 
97
84894163_20

indebtedness) of one or more CFC Subsidiaries or entities that are themselves FSHCOs.
5.12    US Guarantors
(a)    Terms used in this clause are to be construed in accordance with the Fraudulent Transfer Laws.
(b)    Each Restricted Debtor acknowledges that:
(i)    it will receive valuable direct or indirect benefits as a result of the transactions financed by the Hedging Agreements;
(ii)    those benefits will constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the purpose of any Fraudulent Transfer Law; and
(iii)    each Hedge Counterparty has acted in good faith in connection with the guarantee given by that Restricted Debtor and the transactions contemplated by the Hedging Agreements.
(c)    Each Restricted Debtor formed in the state of California acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has adequate means of, obtaining from the Borrowers under (and as defined in) the Senior Facilities Agreement and any Second Lien Facilities Agreement (as applicable) such information concerning the financial condition, business and operations of the Borrowers under (and as defined in) the Senior Facilities Agreement and any Second Lien Facilities Agreement (as applicable) as such Restricted Debtor requires.
(d)    Each Hedge Counterparty agrees that each Restricted Debtor’s liability under this clause is limited so that no obligation of, or transfer by, any Restricted Debtor under this Clause is subject to avoidance and turnover under any Fraudulent Transfer Law.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any Hedging Agreement, the obligations being guaranteed by any Debtor (by express guarantee, grant of security, or otherwise) shall not include any Excluded Swap Obligations.
5.13    Keepwell
(a)    Each ECP Debtor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Debtor to honour all of its obligations under the guarantee provided pursuant to this Clause 5 (Guarantee and indemnity to Hedge Counterparties) in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each ECP Debtor shall only be liable under this Clause 5.13 (Keepwell) for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Clause 5.13 (Keepwell), or otherwise under the guarantee provided pursuant to this Clause 5 
98
84894163_20

(Guarantee and indemnity to Hedge Counterparties), voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, or otherwise, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each ECP Debtor under this Clause 5.13 (Keepwell) shall remain in full force and effect until the Hedging Liabilities are discharged in full.  Each ECP Debtor intends that this Clause 5.13 (Keepwell) constitutes, and this Clause 5.13 (Keepwell) shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Debtor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.
(b)    As used in this Clause 5.13 (Keepwell), “ECP Debtor” means, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Debtor that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant guarantee or grant of the relevant security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation or such other person as constitutes an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another person to qualify as an “eligible contract participant” at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.
6.    Issue of Senior Secured Notes
(a)    The Company shall procure that no member of the Group shall enter into any Senior Secured Notes Indenture or issue any Senior Secured Notes unless such Senior Secured Notes (and the incurrence of any financial indebtedness thereunder) are permitted by this Agreement, the Senior Facilities Agreement, any other Senior Secured Notes Finance Documents, any Pari Passu Debt Documents and any Second Lien Finance Documents then outstanding.
(b)    No Debtor may enter into a Senior Secured Notes Indenture unless the prior written consent of the Security Agent to act as security trustee for the holders of the Senior Secured Notes thereunder has been obtained (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
7.    Entry into Pari Passu Debt Documents
(a)    No Debtor shall enter into any Pari Passu Debt Documents unless such Pari Passu Debt Documents (and the incurrence of any financial indebtedness thereunder) are permitted by this Agreement, the Senior Facilities Agreement, any Senior Secured Notes Finance Documents, any other Pari Passu Debt Documents and any Second Lien Finance Documents then outstanding.
(b)    No Debtor may enter into a Pari Passu Debt Document unless the prior written consent of the Security Agent to act as security trustee for the holders of the Pari Passu Debt thereunder has been obtained (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
99

The Debtors shall not and shall procure that no other member of the Group will make any Payments of the Second Lien Liabilities or exercise any set-off against any Second Lien Liabilities at any time unless:

8.3    Permitted Payments: Second Lien Liabilities
(a)    Prior to the Senior Secured Discharge Date, the Debtors may only make Payments to the Second Lien Creditors in respect of the Second Lien Liabilities then due in accordance with the Second Lien Finance Documents (other than in connection with a refinancing of the Second Lien Liabilities in accordance with Clause 2.4 (Additional and/or Refinancing Debt) and/or Clause 20 (Refinancing of Primary Creditor Liabilities)):
(i)    if the Payment is permitted by the Senior Facilities Agreement, the Senior Secured Notes Finance Documents, the Pari Passu Debt Documents or the other Second Lien Finance Documents then outstanding; or

Liabilities, (11) for so long as either a Senior Secured Event of Default or a Second Lien Event of Default is continuing, all or part of the Second Lien Liabilities being released or otherwise discharged solely in consideration for the issue of shares in any Holding Company of the Company or a Permitted Affiliate Parent (a “Debt for Equity Swap”) provided that (x) no cash or cash equivalent payment is made in respect of the Second Lien Liabilities, (y) it does not result in a “Change of Control” under and as defined in the Senior Finance Documents, the Senior Secured Notes Finance Documents and the Pari Passu Debt Documents and (z) any Liabilities owed by a member of the Group to another member of the Group, the Subordinated Creditors or any other Holding Company of a Debtor that arise as a result of any such Debt for Equity Swap are subordinated to the Senior Secured Liabilities pursuant to this Agreement and the Senior Secured Creditors are granted Transaction Security in respect of any of those Liabilities owed by a member of the Group to the extent such Transaction Security is required to be granted pursuant to the terms of the Secured Debt Documents, (12) if no Senior Secured Payment Default has occurred and is continuing, principal, interest or any other amounts made on or after the final maturity of the relevant Second Lien Liabilities (provided that such maturity date is no earlier than the date falling six months after the latest maturity date applicable to the Senior Facilities Agreement and the Senior Secured Notes as of the first date of borrowing or issuance (as the case may be) of the applicable Second Lien Liabilities), (13) amounts funded directly or indirectly with the proceeds of Second Lien Liabilities or High Yield Liabilities incurred respectively under or pursuant to any Second Lien Finance Document and/or High Yield Finance Document and (14) in circumstances where the requirement to make a mandatory prepayment of any amount in respect of the Senior Secured Liabilities is waived in whole or in part by one or more of the Senior Secured Creditors entitled thereto, an amount equal to the amount that would have been required to be prepaid in the absence of such waiver provided that such payment is permitted under the provisions of the Senior Finance Documents, the Senior Secured Notes Finance Documents and the Pari Passu Debt Documents; or

102
84894163_20

continuing and suspending Payments of the Second Lien Liabilities (other than those expressly permitted under Clause 8.3(a)(ii) (Permitted Payments: Second Lien Liabilities)) until the first to occur of the dates referred to in paragraph (b) below.
(b)    If a Senior Secured Payment Default is continuing or a Second Lien Payment Stop Notice is outstanding, Payments of the Second Lien Liabilities (other than those expressly envisaged under Clause 8.3(a)(ii) (Permitted Payments: Second Lien Liabilities)) shall be suspended until the first to occur of:
(i)    in the case of a Second Lien Payment Stop Notice, the date which is 120 days after the date of issue of that Second Lien Payment Stop Notice;
(ii)    in the case of a Second Lien Payment Stop Notice, if a Second Lien Standstill Period commences after the issue of that Second Lien Payment Stop Notice, the date on which that Second Lien Standstill Period expires;

103
84894163_20

8.5    Effect of Material Event of Default or Senior Secured Payment Default
Any failure to make a Payment due under the Second Lien Finance Documents as a result of the issue of a Second Lien Payment Stop Notice or the occurrence of a Senior Secured Payment Default shall not prevent:
(a)    the occurrence of an Event of Default as a consequence of that failure to make a Payment in relation to the Second Lien Finance Documents; or
(b)    the issue of a Second Lien Enforcement Notice on behalf of the Second Lien Creditors.
8.6    Payment obligations and capitalisation of interest continue
(a)    No Debtor shall be released from the liability to make any Payment (including of default interest, which shall continue to accrue) under any Second Lien Finance Document by the operation of Clauses 8.1 (Entry into Second Lien Finance Documents) to 8.5 (Effect of Material Event of Default or Senior Secured Payment Default) even if its obligation to make that Payment is restricted at any time by the terms of any of those Clauses.
(b)    The accrual or capitalisation of interest (including default interest) in accordance with the Second Lien Finance Documents shall continue notwithstanding the issue of a Second Lien Payment Stop Notice.
8.7    Cure of payment stop: Second Lien Creditors
If:
(a)    at any time following the issue of a Second Lien Payment Stop Notice or the occurrence of a Senior Secured Payment Default, that Second Lien Payment Stop Notice ceases to be outstanding and/or (as the case may be) the Senior Secured Payment Default ceases to be continuing; and
(b)    the relevant Debtor then promptly pays to the Second Lien Creditors  an amount equal to any Payments which had accrued under the Second Lien Finance Documents and which would have been Permitted Second Lien Payments but for that Second Lien Payment Stop Notice or Senior Secured Payment Default,
then any Event of Default (including any cross default or similar provision under any other Debt Document) which may have occurred as a result of that suspension of Payments shall be waived and any Second Lien Enforcement Notice which may have been issued as a result of that Event of Default shall be waived, in each case without any further action being required on the part of the Second Lien Creditors or any other Creditor.
8.8    Amendments and Waivers: Second Lien Creditors
(a)    Subject to paragraph (b) below, the Second Lien Creditors may amend or waive the terms of the Second Lien Finance Documents (other than this

Agreement or any Security Document) in accordance with their terms at any time.
(b)    Prior to the Senior Secured Discharge Date, the Second Lien Creditors may not amend or waive the terms of the Second Lien Finance Documents without the prior consent of the Majority Senior Lenders and (to the extent not permitted by (i) the Senior Secured Notes Indenture(s) pursuant to which any Senior Secured Notes are outstanding or (ii) the Pari Passu Debt Documents pursuant to which any Pari Passu Debt is outstanding) the relevant Senior Secured Notes Representative(s) and the relevant Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) if the amendment or waiver would result in the Second Lien Finance Documents not being in compliance with the terms of the Senior Facilities Agreement, the Senior Secured Notes Indenture(s) and/or the Pari Passu Debt Documents or a Second Lien Finance Document being inconsistent in any material respect with the Second Lien Major Terms.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Clause 8.8 (Amendments and Waivers: Second Lien Creditors) shall prevent the waiver of any breach of, or the relaxation of the terms of, any of the covenants in any Second Lien Finance Documents.

The Second Lien Representatives and the Company shall not designate a document as a “Second Lien Finance Document” for the purposes of any Second Lien Facilities Agreement or any Second Lien Notes without the prior consent of the Majority Senior Lenders and (to the extent not permitted by (a) the Senior Secured Notes Indenture(s) pursuant to which any Senior Secured Notes are outstanding or (b) the Pari Passu Debt Documents pursuant to which any Pari Passu Debt is outstanding) the relevant Senior Secured Notes Representative(s) and the relevant Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) if the effect of that designation would have the equivalent effect as any amendment or waiver of the Second Lien Finance Documents that would otherwise require their consent under Clause 8.8 (Amendments and Waivers: Second Lien Creditors).
8.10    Security and guarantees: Second Lien Creditors
At any time prior to the Senior Secured Discharge Date, the Second Lien Creditors may not take, accept or receive from any Debtor, any member of the Group or any Security Grantor the benefit of any Security, guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss in respect of the Second Lien Liabilities other than:

(a)    Each Second Lien Creditor may take Enforcement Action available to it but for Clause 8.11 (Restriction on enforcement: Second Lien Creditor) in respect of any of the Second Lien Liabilities if at the same time as, or prior to, that action:
(i)    a Senior Acceleration Event, Senior Secured Notes Acceleration Event or Pari Passu Debt Acceleration Event has occurred, in which case each Second Lien Creditor may take the same Enforcement Action (but in respect of the Second Lien Liabilities) as constitutes that Senior Acceleration Event, Senior Secured Notes Acceleration Event or Pari Passu Debt Acceleration Event (as applicable);
(ii)    a Second Lien Representative has given notice (a “Second Lien Enforcement Notice”) to the Security Agent specifying that an Event of Default under any Second Lien Finance Document in respect of which it is an agent, representative or trustee has occurred and is continuing and:

(1)    90 days in the case of a failure to make a payment of an amount of principal, interest or fees representing Second Lien Liabilities; 
(2)    120 days in the case of any Event of Default under any Second Lien Facilities Agreement substantially equivalent to clause 22.2 (Financial Ratio) of the Senior Facilities Agreement; and

106
84894163_20

in each case, has elapsed from the date on which that Second Lien Enforcement Notice becomes effective in accordance with Clause 27.4 (Delivery); and
(B)    that Event of Default is continuing at the end of the Second Lien Standstill Period; or
(iii)    the Majority Senior Lenders, the Senior Secured Notes Representative(s) and the Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) have given their prior consent.

(i)    accelerate any of that Debtor, Security Grantor or member of the Group’s Second Lien Liabilities or declare them prematurely due and payable or payable on demand;

then any Event of Default (including any cross default or similar provision under any other Debt Document) which may have occurred as a result of that suspension of Payments shall be waived and any High Yield Enforcement Notice which may have 
117
84894163_20

9.8    Amendments and Waivers: High Yield Creditors

It is hereby agreed that, in relation to any jurisdiction the courts of which would not recognise or give effect to the trust expressed to be created by this Clause 11.4 (Turnover of Subordinated Liabilities), such amounts and distributions shall be held by such Subordinated Creditor in a separate account and the relationship between the Security Agent and that Subordinated Creditor in respect of such amounts and distributions shall be construed as one of principal and agent.
11.5    No Reduction or Discharge
As between the Debtors and the Subordinated Creditors, the Subordinated Liabilities will be deemed not to have been reduced or discharged to the extent of any payment or distribution to the Security Agent under Clause 11.4 (Turnover of Subordinated Liabilities) and no Debtor shall be released from the liability to make any payment or distribution of any kind whatsoever (including of default interest, which shall continue to accrue) with respect to or on account of any Subordinated Liabilities by the operation of Clause 11.1 (Restriction on Payment: Subordinated Liabilities) even if its obligation to make that payment or distribution is restricted at any time by the terms of Clause 11.1 (Restriction on Payment: Subordinated Liabilities).
11.6    Indemnity
Immediately after the Final Discharge Date, the Debtors will (to the extent permitted by law) fully indemnify each Subordinated Creditor upon demand for the amount of any payment or distribution to the Security Agent under Clause 11.4 (Turnover of Subordinated Liabilities).
11.7    No Subrogation of Subordinated Creditors
Without the prior Consent of the Majority Senior Creditors (until after the Senior Discharge Date), the relevant Senior Secured Notes Representative(s) (if on or before the Senior Secured Notes Discharge Date), the relevant Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) (if on or before the Pari Passu Debt Discharge Date), the Second Lien Notes Trustee (if on or before the Second Lien Notes Discharge Date), the Majority Second Lien Lenders (if on or before the Second Lien Loan Discharge Date), the High Yield Notes Trustee (if on or before the High Yield Notes Discharge Date) and the Majority High Yield Lenders (if on or before the High Yield Loan Discharge Date), until after the Final Discharge Date, the Subordinated Creditors may not in any circumstances exercise any subrogation rights relating to the rights of the Senior Lenders in respect of the Senior Lender Liabilities, the Pari Passu Creditors in 
134

11.8    Amendments to Subordinated Creditor Documents
(a)    Until after the Final Discharge Date, no Debtor nor any Subordinated Creditor will amend any term of any Subordinated Creditor Document in a manner or to an extent which would result in:
(i)    any Debtor being subject to obligations which would conflict with any provisions of this Agreement; or
(ii)    the ranking or subordination provided for in this Agreement being affected in any way that is materially adverse to the interests of the Senior Finance Parties, the Pari Passu Creditors, the Senior Secured Notes Finance Parties, the Hedge Counterparties, the Second Lien Finance Parties and/or the High Yield Finance Parties,
in each case without the prior Consent of the Majority Senior Creditors (if on or before the Senior Discharge Date), (to the extent not permitted by the Senior Secured Notes Indenture(s) pursuant to which any Senior Secured Notes remain outstanding) the relevant Senior Secured Notes Representative(s) (if on or before the Senior Secured Notes Discharge Date), the relevant Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) (if on or before the Pari Passu Debt Discharge Date), the relevant Second Lien Notes Trustee (if on or before the Second Lien Notes Discharge Date), the Majority Second Lien Lenders (if on or before the Second Lien Loan Discharge Date), the Majority High Yield Lenders (if on or before the High Yield Loan Discharge Date) and the High Yield Notes Trustee (if on or before the High Yield Notes Discharge Date).
(b)    Paragraph (a) above does not apply to any amendment:
(i)    which is necessary to give effect or implement the actions of payments permitted under Clause 11.2 (Permitted Payments: Subordinated Liabilities);
(ii)    which is not materially prejudicial to the interests of any Secured Party as determined by the Security Agent; or
(iii)    which is minor, technical or administrative or corrects a manifest error.

No Debtor or member of the Group may incur any Subordinated Liabilities unless the relevant creditor is an Effective Date Subordinated Creditor or has executed and delivered to the Security Agent a Creditor Accession Undertaking as a Subordinated Creditor, agreeing to be bound by all the terms of this Agreement as if it had originally been a Party as a Subordinated Creditor.

(b)    subject to the Legal Reservations, the obligations expressed to be assumed by it in this Agreement are legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations; and

13.    Effect of Insolvency Event
13.1    SFA Cash Cover
This Clause 13 (Effect of Insolvency Event) is subject to Clause 18.3 (Treatment of SFA Cash Cover and Senior Lender Cash Collateral) and, in the case of Notes Trustee Amounts, to paragraphs (a) and (c) of Clause 30.2 (Liability).
13.2    Payment of distributions
(a)    After the occurrence of an Insolvency Event, any Party entitled to receive a distribution out of the assets of that Debtor, Security Grantor or member of the Group in respect of Liabilities owed to that Party shall, to the extent it is able to do so, direct the person responsible for the distribution of the assets of that Debtor, Security Grantor or member of the Group to pay that distribution to the Security Agent until the Liabilities owing to the Secured Parties have been paid in full.
(b)    The Security Agent shall apply distributions paid to it under paragraph (a) above in accordance with Clause 18 (Application of Proceeds).
13.3    Set-Off
(a)    Subject to paragraph (b) below, to the extent that any Debtor’s, Security Grantor’s or member of the Group’s Liabilities are discharged by way of set-off (mandatory or otherwise) after the occurrence of an Insolvency Event, any 
140
84894163_20

Creditor which benefited from that set-off shall pay an amount equal to the amount of the Liabilities owed to it which are discharged by that set-off to the Security Agent for application in accordance with Clause 18 (Application of Proceeds).
(b)    Paragraph (a) above shall not apply to:
(i)    any such discharge of the Multi-account Overdraft Liabilities to the extent that the relevant discharge represents a reduction from a Permitted Gross Amount of a Multi-account Overdraft Facility to or towards its Designated Net Amount;
(ii)    any Close-Out Netting by a Hedge Counterparty or a Hedging Ancillary Lender;
(iii)    any Payment Netting by a Hedge Counterparty or a Hedging Ancillary Lender;
(iv)    any Inter-Hedging Agreement Netting by a Hedge Counterparty; and

If the Security Agent or any other Secured Party receives a distribution in a form other than in cash in respect of any of the Liabilities (other than as contemplated in paragraph (e)(ii)(A) of Clause 17.2 (Distressed Disposals)), the Liabilities will not be reduced by that distribution until and except to the extent that the realisation proceeds are actually applied towards the Liabilities.
13.5    Filing of claims
Without prejudice to any Ancillary Facility Lender’s right of netting or set-off relating to a Multi-account Overdraft Facility (to the extent that the netting or set-off represents a reduction from a Permitted Gross Amount of that Multi-account Overdraft Facility to or towards its Designated Net Amount), after the occurrence of an Insolvency Event, each Creditor irrevocably authorises the Security Agent (acting in accordance with Clause 13.7 (Security Agent instructions)), on its behalf, to:
(a)    take any Enforcement Action (in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) against that Debtor, Security Grantor or member of the Group;
(b)    demand, sue, prove and give receipt for any or all of that Debtor’s, Security Grantor’s or member of the Group’s Liabilities;
(c)    collect and receive all distributions on, or on account of, any or all of that Debtor’s, Security Grantor’s or member of the Group’s Liabilities; and
141
84894163_20

(d)    file claims, take proceedings and do all other things the Security Agent considers reasonably necessary to recover that Debtor’s, Security Grantor’s or member of the Group’s Liabilities.
13.6    Creditors’ actions
Each Creditor will:
(a)    do all things that the Security Agent (acting in accordance with Clause 13.7 (Security Agent instructions)) reasonably requests in order to give effect to this Clause 13 (Effect of Insolvency Event); and
(b)    if the Security Agent is not entitled to take any of the actions contemplated by this Clause 13 (Effect of Insolvency Event) or if the Security Agent (acting in accordance with Clause 13.7 (Security Agent instructions)) requests that a Creditor take that action, undertake that action itself in accordance with the instructions of the Security Agent (acting in accordance with Clause 13.7 (Security Agent instructions)) or grant a power of attorney to the Security Agent (on such terms as the Security Agent (acting in accordance with Clause 13.7 (Security Agent instructions)) may reasonably require, although no Notes Trustee shall be under any obligation to grant such powers of attorney) to enable the Security Agent to take such action.
13.7    Security Agent instructions
For the purposes of Clause 13.5 (Filing of claims) and Clause 13.6 (Creditors’ actions) the Security Agent shall act:
(a)    (except in relation to the High Yield Liabilities of a HY Issuer or HY Borrower that is not a member of the Group) on the instructions of the group of Primary Creditors entitled, at that time, to give instructions under Clause 16.2 (Enforcement instructions) or Clause 16.3 (Manner of enforcement); or
(b)    in the absence of any such instructions, as the Security Agent sees fit (which may include taking no actions).
13.8    US Insolvency Proceedings: “subordination agreement”6
If any Debtor commences a US Insolvency Proceeding, then this Agreement, which the Parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a “subordination agreement” under section 510(a) of the US Bankruptcy Code, shall be effective during the US Insolvency Proceeding of any such Debtor.
13.9    US Insolvency Proceedings: Reorganisation securities
If, in any US Insolvency Proceeding of any Debtor, debt obligations of the reorganised Debtor secured by liens upon any property of the reorganised Debtor are distributed, pursuant to a plan of reorganisation or similar dispositive restructuring 

6 Clauses 13.8 to 13.14 are subject to review by local counsel.
142
84894163_20

plan, on account of the Second Lien Liabilities, then the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the liens securing such debt obligations.
13.10    US Insolvency Proceedings: recoveries and turnover
(a)    If any Primary Creditor is required in a US Insolvency Proceeding of any US Group Member or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay the bankruptcy trustee or the bankruptcy estate in any such US Insolvency Proceedings, because such amount was avoided or ordered to be paid or disgorged for any reason, including because it was found to be a fraudulent or preferential transfer, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or otherwise then the Liabilities owed to such Primary Creditor shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the Senior Secured Discharge Date or the Second Lien Discharge Date (as the case may be), if it shall otherwise have occurred, shall be deemed not to have occurred.
(b)    If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the Parties hereto.
(c)    The Creditors and Debtors agree that none of them shall be entitled to benefit in any manner that is inconsistent with this Agreement from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement.
13.11    US Insolvency Proceedings: rights as to Transaction Security and proceeds
The relative rights as to the Transaction Security and proceeds thereof shall continue after the commencement of any US Insolvency Proceeding on the same basis as prior to the date of such commencement, provided that:
(a)    if, in a US Insolvency Proceeding of any US Group Member, the Senior Lenders (or a subset thereof) instruct the Security Agent to consent to:
(i)    any debtor-in-possession financing under section 364 of the US Bankruptcy Code that is secured by liens (the “DIP Financing Liens”) senior to or pari passu with the liens securing the Senior Lender Liabilities and the Hedging Liabilities (a “Bankruptcy Financing”); or
(ii)    the use of cash collateral under section 363 of the US Bankruptcy Code (“Section 363 Cash Collateral”),
143
84894163_20

then each Second Lien Finance Party:
(A)    will not object to, oppose or seek to challenge (or support or instruct the Security Agent or any other person in objecting to, opposing or seeking to challenge) such Bankruptcy Financing (provided it is a Qualifying Financing), the use of Section 363 Cash Collateral or any adequate protection granted to the Senior Creditors hereunder; and
(B)    shall not object to subordination of:
(1)    any liens securing the Second Lien Liabilities to such DIP Financing Liens; or
(2)    any replacement liens provided to such Second Lien Finance Parties as adequate protection to any replacement liens provided as adequate protection to the Senior Creditors on the same terms as the liens securing the Second Lien Liabilities are subordinated to the liens securing the Senior Lender Liabilities and the Hedging Liabilities; and
(b)    a Bankruptcy Financing shall be a “Qualifying Financing” only if:
(i)    the priorities in the Transaction Security (including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of the applicable US Insolvency Proceeding) of the Security securing the Senior Liabilities and the Security securing the Second Lien Liabilities will be the same relative to one another as existed immediately prior to the commencement of the applicable US Insolvency Proceeding;
(ii)    such Bankruptcy Financing does not compel any Debtor to seek confirmation of a specific plan of reorganisation for which material terms are set forth in the documentation relating to such Bankruptcy Financing (other than specifying that the Bankruptcy Financing must be paid in full at consummation of such plan of reorganisation);
(iii)    such Bankruptcy Financing does not expressly require the sale, liquidation or disposition of all or any substantial part of the Transaction Security prior to a default under such Bankruptcy Financing (other than a sale pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code that meets the criteria set out in paragraph (c) of Clause 17.2 (Distressed Disposals)); and
(iv)    that to the extent that the Senior Liabilities are provided adequate protection in the form of replacement collateral, the Second Lien Liabilities shall, subject to the Agreed Security Principles, be provided the same replacement collateral on a junior basis to the Senior Liabilities; provided, that if the Second Lien Finance Parties are granted adequate protection in the form of claims under Section 507(b) 
144
84894163_20

of the Bankruptcy Code, such claims shall be subordinate in right of payment to any claim of the Senior Creditors (and to the claims of any lenders providing any Qualifying Financing), and the Second Lien Finance Parties hereby waive their rights under Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code and agree that such claims may receive any treatment under a plan of reorganization which may be afforded the Second Lien Liabilities.
13.12    US Insolvency Proceedings: Common Transaction Security
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Security Documents, it is the intent of the Parties that, solely for the purposes of the classification and allowance of claims in US Insolvency Proceedings, the liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of liens on the Common Transaction Security, with the liens securing the Second Lien Liabilities being subordinate and junior to the liens securing the Senior Secured Liabilities on the terms set out in this Agreement.
(b)    The Parties hereto hereby further acknowledge and agree that because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Common Transaction Security, the Senior Secured Liabilities are fundamentally different from the Second Lien Liabilities and must be separately classified in any Chapter 11 plan proposed or adopted in a US Insolvency Proceeding of any Debtor.
(c)    To give effect to the intent of the Parties as provided in this Clause 13.12, if it is held that the claims of the Senior Secured Creditors and Second Lien Creditors in respect of the Common Transaction Security constitute only one class of secured claims (rather than separate classes of senior and second lien secured claims), then the Second Lien Creditors hereby acknowledge and agree in connection with any US Insolvency Proceedings:
(i)    that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against members of the Group in respect of the Common Transaction Security;
(ii)    that to the extent that the aggregate value of the Common Transaction Security is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Lien Creditors), the Senior Creditors shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition Interest before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Creditors;
(iii)    to turn over to the Security Agent amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to give effect to the intent of this Clause 13.12, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing recovery of the Second Lien Creditors; and
(iv)    until turned over to the Senior Secured Creditors, such amounts will be held in trust for the Senior Secured Creditors.
145
84894163_20

13.13    US Insolvency Proceedings: rights of Second Lien Finance Parties and Senior Creditors
In connection with any US Insolvency Proceeding:
(a)    each of the Senior Secured Creditors and the Second Lien Creditors, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, shall retain all rights to vote to accept or reject any plan of reorganisation, composition, arrangement or liquidation, and, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the ability of the Senior Secured Creditors or the Second Lien Creditors to make a proposal to the Group to provide debtor-in-possession financing (including any Bankruptcy Financing) in any US Insolvency Proceeding;
(b)    the Second Lien Creditors may, in accordance with applicable law, exercise any rights and remedies against any member of the Group which are available to unsecured creditors in US Insolvency Proceedings which have commenced in respect of that member of the Group solely to the extent that such exercise of rights and remedies is not in contravention of and does not have the effect of contravening the provisions and relevant priorities set forth in this Agreement; and
(c)    in the event that any Second Lien Creditor becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Charged Property, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to the Security securing the Senior Secured Liabilities on the same basis as the other Security securing the Second Lien Liabilities are so subordinated to such Security securing the Senior Secured Liabilities under this Agreement provided that any proceeds of any such lien shall be applied in the same way as any amounts received or recovered by the Secured Parties are required to be applied under the terms of this Agreement.
13.14    US Insolvency Proceedings: disposal of Transaction Security
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Second Lien Creditors will not contest, protest, or object, and will be deemed to have consented pursuant to Section 363(f) of the US Bankruptcy Code, to a disposal of Transaction Security, or the process or procedures for obtaining bids for and effecting a disposal of Transaction Security (including the right of the Senior Secured Creditors to credit bid and the retention by the Obligors of professionals in connection with any potential disposal), or any motion or order in connection with any such disposal, process or procedures, under Section 363 of the US Bankruptcy Code (or any other provision of the US Bankruptcy Code or applicable US Bankruptcy Law), if the relevant Agent or Security Agent acting on behalf of the Senior Secured Creditors consents to such disposal, such process or procedures or such motion or order; provided that (a) either (i) pursuant to court order, the Security of the Second Lien Creditors attach to the net proceeds of the disposal with the same priority and validity as the Security held by the Second Lien Creditors on such Transaction Security, and the Security remains subject to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) the net proceeds of a disposal of Transaction Security received by the Security Agent on behalf of the Senior Secured Creditors in 
146
84894163_20

excess of those necessary to achieve the full and final discharge of Senior Secured Liabilities are distributed in accordance with the UCC and applicable law, and (b) the net cash proceeds of any disposition under Section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code are permanently applied to the Bankruptcy Financing or to the Senior Secured Liabilities or are set aside for a wind-down, liquidation or similar fund.  Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Second Lien Creditors from credit bidding all or any portion of the Second Lien Liabilities provided that any such bid contemplates the payment in full in cash of all Senior Secured Liabilities at closing of any such bid.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Second Lien Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Second Lien Creditors it represents, may raise any objections to any such disposal that could be raised by any creditor of the Obligors whose claims were not secured by any Security on such Transaction Security, provided such objections are not inconsistent with any other term or provision of this Agreement and are not based on the status of the Second Lien Agent or the Second Lien Creditors as secured creditors (without limiting the foregoing, the Second Lien Creditors may not raise any objections based on rights afforded by Sections 363(e) and (f) of the US Bankruptcy Code to secured creditors (or by any comparable provision of any US Bankruptcy Law)) with respect to the Security granted to the Second Lien Creditors.
13.15    Limitation by Applicable Laws
(a)    Each of the provisions of this Clause 13 (Effect of Insolvency Event) shall apply only to the extent permitted by applicable laws.
(b)    Nothing in this Clause 13 (Effect of Insolvency Event):
(i)    entitles any Party to exercise or require any other Party to exercise such power or voting or representation to waive, reduce, discharge, extend the due date for payment or reschedule any of the Senior Secured Creditor Liabilities or the Hedging Liabilities or the Second Lien Liabilities; or
(ii)    shall be deemed to require any Senior Secured Creditors, Second Lien Creditors, High Yield Creditors or Unsecured Creditors to hold a meeting of the relevant Creditors or pass any resolution at such meeting or give any consent pursuant to the terms of the relevant Secured Debt Documents,  High Yield  Finance Documents or Unsecured Creditors.

(ii)    in the absence of instructions from the Instructing Group,

(d)    Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph (c) if at any time the Majority Second Lien Creditors are then entitled to give the Security Agent instructions to enforce the Transaction Security pursuant to the preceding paragraph (c) and the Majority Second Lien Creditors either give such instructions or indicate any intention to give such instructions, then either the Senior Agent or the Senior Secured Notes Representative(s) may give instructions to the Security Agent to enforce the Transaction Security as such Senior Agent or the Senior Secured Notes Representative(s) sees fit in lieu of any instructions to enforce given by the Majority Second Lien Creditors under Clause 8.12 (Permitted Enforcement: Second Lien Creditors) and the Security Agent shall act on the first such instructions received from the Senior Agent or the Senior Secured Notes Representative(s).

(a)    the relevant Instructing Group shall instruct; or
(b)    prior to the Senior Secured Discharge Date, if:

16.6    Duties owed
Each of the Secured Parties, Security Grantors and the Debtors acknowledges that, in the event that the Security Agent enforces or is instructed to enforce the Transaction Security prior to the Senior Secured Discharge Date, the duties of the Security Agent and of any Receiver or Delegate owed to any Second Lien Finance Party or High Yield Creditor in respect of the method, type and timing of that enforcement or of the exploitation, management or realisation of any of that Transaction Security shall, subject to paragraph (c) of Clause 17.2 (Distressed Disposals), be no different to or greater than the duty that is owed by the Security Agent, the Receiver or Delegate to the Debtors and Security Grantors under general law.
16.7    Security held by other Creditors
If any Transaction Security is held by a Creditor other than the Security Agent, then Creditors may only enforce that Transaction Security in accordance with instructions given by an Instructing Group in accordance with this Clause 16.7 (and for this purpose references to the Security Agent shall be construed as references to that Creditor).

(ii)    the Instructing Group or any Agent of the Creditors represented in the Instructing Group determines in good faith (and notifies each Agent and the Security Agent) that to enter into such consultations and thereby delay the commencement of enforcement of the Transaction Security could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on:
(A)    the Security Agent’s ability to enforce any of the Transaction Security; or
(B)    the realisation proceeds of any enforcement of the Transaction Security.

If, for any reason, any Senior Secured Liabilities remain unpaid after the Enforcement Date and the resulting losses are not borne by the Senior Secured Creditors in the proportions which their respective Exposures at the Enforcement Date bore to the aggregate Exposures of all the Senior Secured Creditors at the Enforcement Date, the Senior Secured Creditors (subject, in the case of Notes Trustee Amounts, to paragraphs (a) and (c) of Clause 30.2 (Liability)) will make such payments amongst themselves as the Security Agent shall require to put the Senior Secured Creditors in such a position that (after taking into account such payments) those losses are borne in those proportions.
19.4    Turnover of enforcement proceeds
If:
(a)    the Security Agent, any Senior Agent, any Pari Passu Debt Representative, any Senior Secured Notes Representative or Second Lien Representative is not entitled, for reasons of applicable law, to pay amounts received pursuant to the making of a demand under any guarantee, indemnity or other assurance against loss or the enforcement of the Transaction Security to the Senior Secured Creditors and/or the Second Lien Creditors but is entitled to distribute those amounts to Creditors (such Creditors, the “Receiving Creditors”) who, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, are subordinated in right and priority of payment to the Senior Secured Creditors; and
(b)    the later of the Senior Secured Discharge Date and the Second Lien Discharge Date has not yet occurred (nor would occur after taking into account such payments),

Senior Secured Creditor(s) to whom such payment was to be redistributed (subject to being indemnified to its satisfaction by such Senior Secured Creditor(s) in respect of costs) but shall have no liability or obligation towards such Senior Secured Creditor(s), any other Senior Secured Creditor or Creditor as regards such default in payment and any loss suffered as a result of such default shall lie where it falls.

(a)    In this Clause 21.3 (Parallel Debt (Covenant to pay the Security Agent)):
“Secured Party Claim” means any amount which a Debtor owes to a Secured Party under or in connection with the Secured Debt Documents.
“Security Agent Claim” has the meaning given to it in paragraph (b) below.
(b)    Each Debtor irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Security Agent, as an independent and separate creditor, an amount equal to each Secured Party Claim owed by such Debtor on the due date of such Secured Party Claim (the “Security Agent Claims”).
(c)    Each Security Agent Claim is created on the understanding that the Security Agent must:
(i)    share the proceeds of each Security Agent Claim with the other Secured Parties; and
181
84894163_20

(ii)    pay those proceeds to the Secured Parties in accordance with Clause 18 (Application of Proceeds).

(n)    Without limiting or affecting the Security Agent’s rights against any Debtor (whether under this Clause 21.3 (Parallel Debt (Covenant to pay the Security Agent)) or under any other provision of the Secured Debt Documents or High Yield Finance Documents), the Security Agent agrees with each other Secured Party (on a several and divided basis) that it will not exercise its rights in respect of the Security Agent Claims except with the consent of the Instructing Group.

(c)    Save in the case of decisions stipulated to be a matter for any other Creditor or group of Creditors under this Agreement (including Clause 16 (Enforcement of Transaction Security)) and unless a contrary intention appears in this Agreement, any instructions given to the Security Agent by an Instructing Group shall override any conflicting instructions given by any other Parties.
(d)    Any instructions or votes given or to be given to the Security Agent by any Creditor shall be provided by that Creditor’s Agent in relation to the relevant Liabilities or, in the case of Hedging Liabilities, by the relevant Hedge Counterparty and the Security Agent shall be entitled to communicate with any Creditor or Creditors through such Agent and shall have no obligation to communicate with any Creditor or Creditors (other than Hedge Counterparties) other than through such Creditor(s’) Agent.

(E)    Clause 18.6 (Permitted Deductions).
(f)    If giving effect to instructions given by an Instructing Group would (in the Security Agent’s good faith opinion) have an effect equivalent to an Intercreditor Amendment, the Security Agent shall not act in accordance with those instructions unless Consent to it so acting is obtained from each Party (other than the Security Agent) whose Consent would have been required in respect of that Intercreditor Amendment.
(g)    In exercising any discretion to exercise a right, power or authority under this Agreement where either:
(i)    it has not received any instructions from an Instructing Group as to the exercise of that discretion; or

(c)    The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Notes Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge or existence of facts that would impose an obligation on it hereunder to make any payment or prohibit it from making any payment unless, not less than two Business Days prior to the date of such payment, a Responsible Officer of the Notes Trustee receives written notice satisfactory to it that such payments are required or prohibited by this Agreement.

No Notes Trustee shall have an obligation to indemnify (out of its personal assets) any other person, whether or not a Party, in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In no event shall the permissive rights of a Notes Trustee to take action under this Agreement be construed as an obligation to do so.
(b)    Prior to taking any action under this Agreement any Notes Trustee may request and rely upon an opinion of counsel or opinion of another qualified expert, at the expense of the Company or another Debtor.
(c)    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Notes Finance Document to which a Notes Trustee is a party to, in no event shall a 
227
84894163_20

Notes Trustee be liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damages of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to loss of business, goodwill, opportunity or profits) whether or not foreseeable even if such Notes Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of whether the claim for loss or damage is made in negligence, for breach of contract or otherwise.

235
84894163_20

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 Secured Debt Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

(b)    The Parties agree that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes and accordingly no Party will argue to the contrary.
(c)    This Clause 35.1 (Jurisdiction) is for the benefit of the Secured Parties only. As a result, no Secured Party shall be prevented from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent

(i)    irrevocably appoints the Company as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with this Agreement; and
(ii)    agrees that failure by a process agent to notify the relevant Debtor, Security Grantor or Subordinated Creditor, as applicable, of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned.
(b)    If any person appointed as an agent for service of process is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process, the Company (on behalf of all the Debtors, Security Grantors and Subordinated Creditors) must immediately (and in any event within five Business Days of becoming aware of such event taking place) appoint another agent as process agent on terms acceptable to the Senior Agent or, after the Senior Discharge Date, Senior Secured Notes Representative(s) and Pari Passu Debt Representative(s) or, after the Senior Secured Discharge Date, the Second Lien Representative(s), or after the Second Lien Discharge Date, the High Yield Representative(s) or, after the High Yield Discharge Date, the Unsecured Representative(s).

	Determination of Number of Earned PSUs:	  	 As soon as practicable following the Performance Period, the Committee will determine the level of performance attainment and the number
of PSUs earned under this Award as follows:
  

•  Determination of Attainment of “US Corporate Vice Presidents and Above” and “US
Hotel General Managers” Performance Goals. For each of the US Corporate Vice Presidents and Above Performance Goal and the US Hotel General Managers Performance Goal, subject to adjustment as provided below in respect of the Company’s
Relative TSR Rank: (i) zero PSUs shall be earned for each Performance Tranche for which attainment falls below Threshold Representation, (ii) [        ] of the Target Number of PSUs shall be earned for
each Performance Tranche for which Threshold Representation is attained, (iii) [        ] of the Target Number of PSUs shall be earned for each Performance Tranche for which Target Representation is attained
or exceeded, and (iv) a percentage of the Target Number of PSUs ranging from [        ] (determined using linear interpolation) shall be earned for each Performance Tranche for which performance falls
between Threshold Representation and Target Representation (up to a maximum of [        ] of the Target number of PSUs for these two Performance Goals combined, the actual such number of PSUs, the
“Earned US Performance PSUs”).
  

•  Determination of Attainment of “Non-US Corporate
Vice Presidents and Above” and “Global Hotel General Managers” Performance Goals. For each of the Non-US Corporate Vice Presidents Performance Goal and the Global Hotel General Managers
Performance Goal, subject to adjustment as provided below in respect of the Company’s Relative TSR Rank: (i) zero PSUs shall be earned for each Performance Goal for which attainment falls below Threshold Representation, (ii)
[         ] of the Target Number of PSUs shall be earned for each Performance Goal for which Threshold Representation is attained, (iii) [        ] of the Target Number
of PSUs shall be earned for each Performance Goal for which Target Representation is attained or exceeded, and (iv) a percentage of the Target Number of PSUs ranging from [        ] (determined using
linear interpolation) shall be earned for each Performance Goal for which performance falls between Threshold Representation and Target Representation (up to a maximum of [        ] of the Target number of
PSUs for these two Performance Goals combined, the actual such number of PSUs, the “Earned Global Performance PSUs”).
  

•  Application of Relative TSR Modifier to Determine Actual PSUs Earned. The actual number of
PSUs earned under this Award shall equal (i) the sum of the Earned US Performance PSUs and the Earned Global Performance PSUs, determined in accordance with the foregoing, multiplied by (ii) the relative TSR Modifier (based on the
Company’s Relative TSR Rank for the Performance Period, as determined by the Committee).

  
 5 

			
		  	Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, if, during the Performance Period, (i) any Peer Group Company undergoes a material change in capitalization or a corporate transaction, or ceases to be
publicly traded on an established securities market, in each case, as determined by the Committee, and/or (ii) as a result of any transaction or other unanticipated or non-recurring event, the Committee
determines that the metrics applicable to any Performance Tranche or Performance Goal require adjustment to fairly measure the Company’s success in attaining desired Employee Group representation in Management Positions over the Performance
Period, then in any such case, the Committee shall be authorized to make equitable adjustments, as it deems appropriate in its sole discretion, to the Peer Group Companies, the Relative TSR Modifier, any Threshold Representation amount, any Target
Representation amount and/or such other metrics or terms as the Committee determines to be fair and appropriate under the circumstances. In no event shall Participant earn a number of PSUs in excess of the Maximum Number of PSUs indicated above. All
PSUs that are not earned as of the Determination Date shall be forfeited.
		
	Settlement and Payment of PSUs:	  	Except as otherwise provided upon a Change in Control or the Participant’s death or Disability and set forth below, each PSU that is earned in accordance with the foregoing shall be settled by delivery of one share of Common
Stock to the Participant within thirty (30) days following the Determination Date (and in no event later than March 15, 2026) (the “Payment Date”), subject to tax withholding, as provided below.
		
	Termination of Service:	  	 Subject to the exceptions below, PSUs will only be eligible to vest and become earned and payable if the Participant remains in continuous
Service with the Company from the Grant Date through the last day of the Performance Period. “Service” for purposes of this Award shall mean employment as an Employee, or service to the Company as a Director or Consultant.
Except as provided below, all unearned PSUs will be forfeited and cancelled for no consideration upon the Participant’s Termination of Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PSUs will not be forfeited or cancelled in the following
circumstances:
  

•  Retirement, Death or Disability. Notwithstanding any terms and conditions of the Amended and
Restated Retirement Policy Regarding Equity Vesting adopted by Hyatt Hotels Corporation (the “Retirement Policy”) to the contrary, in the event of the Participant’s Retirement (as defined in the Retirement Policy), death
or Disability (as defined below) prior to the end of the Performance Period, the Participant shall be eligible to earn PSUs on a pro rata basis determined by multiplying the number of PSUs that would have been earned hereunder based on actual
performance through the end of the Performance Period by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the number of full months of Service prior to such termination and the denominator of which equals sixty-six
(66). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant provides written notice of the Participant’s Retirement date at least one year prior to such Retirement, the Participant shall be eligible to earn the full amount of PSUs that would have
been earned as of the Determination Date based on actual performance (without proration). As described below, PSUs are subject to cancellation and forfeiture for no

  
 6 

			
		  	 consideration in the event the Participant engages in certain “detrimental conduct” (as defined below).
For this purpose “Disability” shall mean either (i) the Participant is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to
result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, (ii) the Participant is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be
expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three months under the Company’s long-term disability plan, and/or (iii) the Participant is determined
to be totally disabled by the Social Security Administration.

		
	Change in Control: 	  	In the event of a Change in Control during the Performance Period, subject to the Participant’s continuous Service through the date of such Change in Control (or earlier termination due to death, Disability or Retirement, in
which case the above provisions shall control), the date of the Change in Control shall be the last day of the Performance Period, and the number of PSUs earned hereunder will be determined as of immediately prior to the Change in Control and will
equal the greater of (i) the total number of PSUs earned based on actual performance through the date of the Change in Control (for clarity, measured using average representation in each Management Group over the six (6)-month period ending
with the Change in Control), and (ii) the total number of PSUs earned based on Threshold Performance for each Performance Goal, in each case subject to adjustment based on the Relative TSR Modifier, measured as of the date of such Change in
Control, provided, that if such Change in Control occurs within the first calendar year of the Performance Period, the number of earned PSUs shall be determined without regard to the Relative TSR Modifier. Settlement of PSUs will be
accomplished through the issuance of shares of Common Stock or cash, as the Committee may determine, and any earned PSUs (and the Dividend Equivalents thereon) shall be settled upon or within fifteen (15) days after the Change in Control (which
shall be deemed to be the Payment Date). Any PSUs not earned upon a Change in Control shall be forfeited and cancelled for no consideration.
		
	Rights of Ownership	  	The Participant shall not have any rights or privileges of a stockholder with respect to the PSUs subject to this Award or any shares of Common Stock underlying this Award unless and until shares of Common Stock are delivered in
respect hereof.
		
	Dividend Equivalent Rights:	  	Each PSU granted hereunder is hereby granted in tandem with a corresponding Dividend Equivalent right that shall, while it remains outstanding, and to the extent that dividends are paid on Common Stock and subject to the terms
set forth below, entitle the Participant to a cash payment in the amount of any such dividend(s) paid by the Company in respect of a share of Common Stock. The Dividend Equivalent right shall remain outstanding from the Grant Date through the
earlier to occur of (a) the termination or forfeiture for any reason of the PSU to which such Dividend Equivalent right corresponds, or (b) the delivery to the Participant of the share of Common Stock (or other payment) in respect of the
PSU to which such Dividend Equivalent right corresponds (in any case, the “PSU Termination Date”). Each Dividend Equivalent right will entitle the Participant to a cash payment in the amount of any dividend(s)
paid

  
 7 

			
		  	by the Company in respect of a share of Common Stock to the extent that such dividend(s) are declared and have ex dividend date(s), in each case, that occur on or after the applicable Grant Date and on or prior to the
applicable PSU Termination Date, payable upon the Payment Date in respect of the PSU to which such Dividend Equivalent right corresponds; provided, that with respect to any dividends meeting such criteria that are paid after the PSU
Termination Date, the applicable Dividend Equivalent payment will be made if and when the Company pays the underlying dividend or, if later, on the Payment Date (but in no event later than March
15th of the year following the year in which the applicable ex dividend date occurs). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if a PSU is not ultimately earned hereunder, no Dividend
Equivalent payments shall be made with respect to such unearned PSU, and (ii) in no event shall a Dividend Equivalent payment be made that would result in the Participant receiving both the Dividend Equivalent payment (in respect of a dividend)
and the actual dividend with respect to the same PSU and corresponding share of Common Stock. Dividend Equivalent rights and any amounts that may become distributable in respect thereof shall be treated separately from the PSUs and the rights
arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form of payments required by Section 409A of the Code (together with any Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder,
“Section 409A”).
		
	Tax Withholding:	  	 Unless paid in cash by the Participant at the time of settlement, the Company will deduct or withhold from shares issuable upon settlement
of the PSU a number of shares of Common Stock having a Share Value equal to the amount sufficient to satisfy the statutory federal, state, foreign and local taxes and any employment, disability, social welfare or other legally required withholdings
(subject to any applicable limitation(s) in the Plan). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the tax obligation arises during period in which the Participant is prohibited from trading under any policy of the Company or by reason of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, then the tax withholding obligation shall automatically be satisfied by the Company withholding shares of Common Stock.

The Participant is encouraged to consult with a tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of participation in the Plan and acceptance of this
Award.

		
	Transferability of PSUs:	  	PSUs may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated; provided that in the event of the Participant’s death, shares deliverable or amounts payable with respect to the PSUs shall be
delivered or paid, as applicable, to the Participant’s designated beneficiary. The Committee will advise Participants with respect to the procedures for naming and changing designated beneficiaries.
		
	Data Privacy:	  	By acceptance of this Award, the Participant acknowledges and consents to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data as described below and in accordance with the Hyatt Privacy Policy for Employees. The
Company, its affiliates and the Participant’s employer hold certain personal information, including the Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other employee tax identification
number, salary, nationality, job title, and any equity compensation grants or Common

  
 8 

			
		  	Stock awarded, cancelled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan (“Data”). The Company and its affiliates will transfer Data to
any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the United States, the European Economic Area, or elsewhere. The Participant hereby authorizes them to
receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the
administration of the Plan on behalf of the Participant to a third party with whom the Participant may have elected to have payment made pursuant to the Plan. The Participant may, at any time, review Data, require any necessary amendments to it or
withdraw the consent herein in writing by contacting the Company; however, withdrawing the consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan and receive the benefits intended by this Award.
		
	No Impact on Other Rights:	  	Participation in the Plan is voluntary. The value of the PSUs is an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of Participant’s normal employment and compensation rights, if any. As such, the PSUs are not part of
normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pensions or retirement benefits or similar payments unless specifically and otherwise provided
in the plans or agreements governing such compensation. The Plan is discretionary in nature and may be amended, cancelled, or terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion, at any time. The grant of PSUs under the Plan is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive any other grant of PSUs or other awards under the Plan in the future. Future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the
Company, including, but not limited to, the timing of the grant, the form of award, number of shares of Common Stock subject to an award, vesting, and exercise provisions, as relevant.
		
	Restrictive Covenants:	  	As a condition of this RSU Award, to the extent Participant has not done so already, Participant agrees to execute and deliver the (i) Non-Competition Agreement, the (ii) Non-Solicitation & Non-Disparagement Agreement (iii) Confidentiality Agreement, and (iv) Invention Assignment Agreement in form and substance
acceptable to the Company, and Participant agrees to be bound by the terms of those agreements.
		
	 Effect of Detrimental

Conduct:
	  	 In the event the Participant engages in “detrimental conduct,” the Participant shall forfeit all unvested PSUs (and all shares
of Common Stock underlying such PSUs) and all such awards shall be null and void as of the date such detrimental conduct first occurs and the Participant shall not receive any consideration therefor.

 
 Definition of Detrimental Conduct. The Participant will be deemed to have engaged
in detrimental conduct if in the reasonable, good faith determination of the Committee, the Participant has engaged in conduct constituting (1) a felony; (2) gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of Participant’s
duties and responsibilities to the Company; (3) willful violation of a material Company policy, including, without limitation, any policy relating

  
 9 

			
		  	 to confidentiality, honesty, integrity and/or workplace behavior, which violation has resulted or may reasonably be expected to result in
harm to the Company, its stockholders, directors, officers, employees or customers; (4) improper internal or external disclosure or use of confidential information or material concerning the Company or any of its stockholders, directors,
officers, or employees which use or disclosure has resulted or may reasonably be expected to result in harm to the Company; (5) publicly disparaging the Company or any of its stockholders, directors, officers or employees; and/or
(6) willful violation of any material agreements with the Company entered into by the Participant in connection with or pursuant to the Plan.
  

Determination of Detrimental Conduct. Upon a reasonable, good faith determination by the Committee that detrimental conduct has occurred, the Committee
shall give the Participant written notice, which shall specify the conduct and the date of the conduct. Any dispute concerning the matters set forth in the notice shall be decided under the procedures in the Plan.

		
	409A:	  	 This Award is intended to comply with Section 409A or an available exemption therefrom. However, notwithstanding any other provision
of the Plan or this Award, if at any time the Committee determines that the PSUs and/or Dividend Equivalents (or any portion thereof) may not be compliant with or exempt from Section 409A, the Committee shall have the right in its sole
discretion (without any obligation to do so or to indemnify or to be responsible for damages to the Participant or any other person for failure to do so) to adopt such amendments to the Plan or this Award, or adopt other policies and procedures
(including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, as the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate to provide for the PSUs and/or Dividend Equivalents to either be exempt from the application
of Section 409A or comply with the requirements of Section 409A; provided, however, that nothing herein shall create any obligation on the part of the Company to adopt any such amendment or take any other action.

 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no payment hereunder shall be made to
the Participant during the six (6)-month period following the Participant’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A) to the extent that the Company determines that paying such amounts at the time set forth
herein would be a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i). If the payment of any such amounts is delayed as a result of the previous sentence, then within thirty (30) days following the end of such six (6)-month period (or,
if earlier, the Participant’s death), the Company shall pay the Participant the cumulative amounts that would have otherwise been payable to the Participant during such period, without interest. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that
any PSUs are “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, the settlement of PSUs hereunder upon a Change in Control shall only occur to the extent that such Change in Control is also a “change in the
ownership or effective control of a corporation, or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of a corporation” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v).

 PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS AWARDED PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE
EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING EMPLOYMENT AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE 

  
 10 

 
ACT OF BEING HIRED OR BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD) AND BY ACHIEVEMENT OF THE PERFORMANCE GOALS (AS DETERMINED AND CERTIFIED BY THE COMMITTEE) AND BY COMPLIANCE WITH PARTICIPANT’S VARIOUS
OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT, NOR IN THE PLAN SHALL CONFER UPON PARTICIPANT ANY RIGHT WITH RESPECT TO CONTINUATION OF EMPLOYMENT BY THE COMPANY, NOR SHALL IT INTERFERE
IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S EMPLOYMENT AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON OR NO REASON, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE, AND WITH OR WITHOUT ADVANCE NOTICE EXCEPT AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY
APPLICABLE LAW.
