ARTICLE 2—OBJECT OF THE AGREEMENT    
    

        2.1    Grant of license    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, SEPRACOR hereby grants UCB, and UCB
hereby accepts, (a) an exclusive license, including the right to sublicense, within the TERRITORY, under SEPRACOR PATENTS to manufacture, have manufactured, use, promote,

TERRITORY, under SEPRACOR KNOW-HOW, to manufacture, have manufactured, use, promote, distribute, offer for sale, sell or import PRODUCT. 

        2.2    SEPRACOR KNOW-HOW    Promptly upon execution of this Agreement and throughout the term hereof
SEPRACOR shall disclose to UCB the SEPRACOR KNOW-HOW. At UCB's request, SEPRACOR shall request in writing from third parties towards which it may be bound by confidentiality obligations

        2.3    Trademark    UCB shall be free to select the trademark for the sale and marketing of PRODUCT in the TERRITORY;
no rights in such trademark shall vest in or inure to the benefit of SEPRACOR.

        2.4    PRODUCT Registration    

	(a)
	UCB
shall, in its sole discretion, and at its sole expense, use reasonable efforts to obtain marketing approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
("FDA") to sell and promote MONO-PRODUCT in the TERRITORY;

	(b)
	UCB
shall be responsible for conducting, to the extent UCB deems appropriate and at UCB's sole expense, clinical trials with the ACTIVE INGREDIENT and interacting with the FDA to
obtain marketing registration for PRODUCT. 

        2.5    Development Reports    UCB shall keep SEPRACOR generally advised within forty-five (45) days
of the end of the second and fourth CALENDAR QUARTERS of each year, of the status of its development program for PRODUCT and discussions with the FDA regarding the registration of the PRODUCT until
such time as UCB obtains marketing approval from the FDA for the MONO-PRODUCT. It is understood that UCB will not be required to disclose detailed information or confidential data to
SEPRACOR relating to UCB's development programs or discussion with the FDA or UCB's regulatory filings. 

 
 

ARTICLE 3—ROYALTIES    
    

        3.1    Calculation    

	(a)
	In
partial consideration for granting the license pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement, UCB shall pay to SEPRACOR a running royalty at the rate of
[**]percent ([**]%) of the total NET SALES of MONO-PRODUCT. Royalties under this Section 3.1(a) shall be payable until the earlier of
(i) such time as all of the SEPRACOR PATENTS covering MONO-PRODUCT(S) and licensed hereunder expire, are held invalid or unenforceable by a United States Federal District Court or
by a United States Court of Appeals (whichever comes first) in a decision unappealable or not appealed in the time allowed for appeal, and/or (ii) such time as MONO-PRODUCT is
introduced in the Territory by a Third Party not authorized by UCB. Thereafter, in the event that all MONO-PRODUCTS not authorized by UCB are removed from the market as a consequence of
enforcement of SEPRACOR PATENTS, the royalty obligation of this Section 3.1(a) shall recommence until such time as an unauthorized MONO-PRODUCT is once again introduced in the
Territory.

	(b)
	In
partial consideration for granting the license pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement, UCB shall pay to SEPRACOR, on a product-by-product basis, a
running royalty at the rate of [**]percent ([**]%) of the total NET SALES of COMBINATION PRODUCT. Royalties under this Section 3.1(b) shall be
payable on a product-by-product basis until the earlier of (i) such time as all of the SEPRACOR PATENTS covering such COMBINATION PRODUCT and licensed hereunder expire,
are held invalid or unenforceable by a United States Federal District Court or by a United States Court of Appeals (whichever comes first) in a decision unappealable or not appealed in the time
allowed for appeal, and/or (ii) such time as such COMBINATION PRODUCT is introduced in the TERRITORY by a Third Party not authorized by UCB. Thereafter, in the event that such COMBINATION
PRODUCT not authorized by UCB is removed from the market as a consequence of enforcement of SEPRACOR PATENTS, the royalty obligation of this Section 3.1(b) shall recommence as to that
COMBINATION PRODUCT until such time as said unauthorized COMBINATION PRODUCT is once again introduced in the Territory. 

        3.2    Financial Reporting    UCB shall provide a report in writing to SEPRACOR within forty-five
(45) days of the end of each CALENDAR QUARTER which will set forth the NET SALES for the considered CALENDAR QUARTER and the detailed calculation of the royalties due to SEPRACOR pursuant to
Section 3.1 for the same period. 

3

 

        3.3    Terms of payment    At the same time as the report required under Section 3.2 above, UCB shall pay to
SEPRACOR at its address set forth in Section 3.7 below, the full amount of royalties due as per Section 3.1 hereabove for the said period. At the end of each MARKETING YEAR, UCB shall
reconcile the amount of royalty due to SEPRACOR against the actual amounts paid for the MARKETING YEAR concerned. In case of underpayment by UCB, UCB shall promptly pay the difference; in case of
overpayment by UCB, UCB shall be entitled to payment from SEPRACOR or
offset the difference against the royalties due for the next CALENDAR QUARTER. Any such payment shall be made in U.S. Dollars. 

        3.4    Taxes    All royalties to be paid to SEPRACOR by UCB pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid after deduction
of the withholding taxes lawfully imposed thereon, which taxes shall be paid by UCB for the account of SEPRACOR; provided that UCB shall upon request supply SEPRACOR with original or certified copies
of official certificates stating that the aforesaid taxes have been actually paid for the account of SEPRACOR. The previous sentence notwithstanding, the parties hereto will reasonably cooperate in
completing and filing documents required under the provisions of any applicable tax laws or under any other applicable law, in order to enable UCB to make such payments to SEPRACOR without any
deduction or withholding. 

        3.5    Records    

	(a)
	UCB
shall keep and maintain, and shall cause its AFFILIATES, sublicensees and assigns to keep and maintain, complete and accurate records and books of account in sufficient detail and
form so as to enable royalties to be determined, including but not limited to, true and accurate records of sales of PRODUCT and calculations of NET SALES and royalties. SEPRACOR shall have the right
to audit the records of UCB at its own expense using a nationally recognized firm of independent certified accountants. Such accountants will have access on reasonable notice to UCB and its AFFILIATES
and sublicensees' records during reasonable business hours for the purpose of verifying royalties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this right may not be exercised more than once in any calendar year,
and once a calendar year is audited it may not be reaudited, and said accountant shall disclose to SEPRACOR and UCB only information relating solely to the accuracy of the reports provided to SEPRACOR
and the payments made to SEPRACOR under this Agreement.

	(b)
	Any
adjustment required as a result of an audit conducted under this Section 3.5 shall be made within forty-five (45) days after the date on which the
accountant conducting the audit issues a written report to SEPRACOR and UCB containing the results of the audit. If any underpayment by UCB is greater than ten percent (10%) of the amount previously
paid to SEPRACOR for the relevant quarter, the costs and expenses of the audit shall be paid for by UCB. In the case of overpayment, UCB may, at its option, offset royalties and interest (if any)
payable to SEPRACOR by the amount of the overpayment, but otherwise SEPRACOR shall remit any such overpayment to UCB.

	(c)
	UCB
shall have the right to contest the accountants' results. If the parties cannot reconcile their differences, the parties agree to have the issue resolved by a mutually acceptable
third party accounting expert. The non-prevailing party, as determined by the expert, shall be liable for the cost of the proceeding and, if bad faith, gross negligence or intentional
misconduct on the part of UCB is found by the expert, the expert may impose the whole or partial cost of the audit on UCB. If the expert finds that SEPRACOR pursued a frivolous claim, the expert may
require SEPRACOR to pay all legal costs and expenses. 

4

  

        3.6    No part of any amount payable to SEPRACOR under this Agreement may be reduced due to any counterclaim, set-off, adjustment or other right which UCB might
have against SEPRACOR, any other party or otherwise, except as expressly stated to the contrary in this Agreement. 

        3.7    All
payments to SEPRACOR pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer, to Fleet Bank of Massachusetts, 75 State Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02109 (ABA
#011000138) to Account No. [**]or such other bank or account as SEPRACOR may from time to time designate in writing. 

 
 

ARTICLE 4—SALES    
    

        4.1    Reasonable efforts    After MONO-PRODUCT is approved and launched into the Rx market according to a
timetable established by UCB, UCB shall use reasonable efforts to sell MONO-PRODUCT within the TERRITORY and to promote the same to potential purchasers thereof, all in a manner consistent
with the efforts used and decisions made by UCB in connection with other products of similar strategic and financial significance. 

        4.2    Launch Date    UCB by itself and/or through a third party intends to launch MONO-PRODUCT into the
Rx market at the most commercially advantageous time. UCB reserves for itself, however, the sole discretion of the timing of such launch. Both parties understand and agree that UCB shall not be
required to launch before [**] and that UCB will generally keep SEPRACOR advised on a confidential basis of its proposed launch dates, if after [**]. 

 
 

ARTICLE 5—INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS    
    

        5.1    Patent protection    SEPRACOR shall be responsible for maintaining and prosecuting at its own expense the
SEPRACOR PATENTS. 

        5.2    Registration of License    UCB shall be entitled to register the present license at any government offices if
such registration is permissible or needed by law. SEPRACOR shall give UCB any powers and authorization necessary for this purpose. The expenses of such registrations shall be borne by UCB. 

        5.3    Enforcement of SEPRACOR PATENTS    

        (a)   UCB
and SEPRACOR shall promptly inform each other in writing of any suspected infringement of any SEPRACOR PATENTS that come to their attention. SEPRACOR shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to take legal action against third parties for infringement of any SEPRACOR PATENTS in the TERRITORY, and shall promptly notify UCB of its intention whether or not to
initiate legal action within any such legally imposed timeframe [but in no event later than ten (10) days before any deadline for filing suit which, if missed, would prejudice UCB's
exclusive rights under this Agreement (e.g. the 45-day deadline imposed under 21 USC 355(j)(5)(B)(iii))] or if no such legally imposed deadline within forty-five
(45) days of written notice to the other party. If SEPRACOR takes such legal action within such timeframe, or if no timeframe, within thirty (30) days following notification of its
intention to take such action, it shall have full control thereover. UCB shall have the right to consult with SEPRACOR and be represented by its own counsel at its own expense, and SEPRACOR shall in
good faith consider UCB's interests in the conduct of any such suit. UCB shall have the right, but not the obligation, prior to commencement of an action brought by SEPRACOR, to join such action as a
party; provided, however, that SEPRACOR shall retain control of such action as set forth above. UCB shall reasonably cooperate with SEPRACOR in any such action. In the event that UCB has been joined
in the action, no settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of the action may be entered into without the consent of UCB. If UCB has been joined in the action, 

5

 

SEPRACOR
shall not enter into any consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of the action or threatened action which affects UCB's exclusivity granted herein without the consent of UCB,
prior to offering UCB the right to continue the action at its own cost and discretion. 

        (b)   In
case SEPRACOR notifies UCB that it will not take legal action against the infringer, or if SEPRACOR does not initiate legal action within the timeframes specified
above, or in case SEPRACOR has not notified UCB of its decision to take action as prescribed in Section 5.3(a), UCB shall have the right, but not the obligation to undertake the same at its own
cost and discretion, and any amounts recovered shall be retained by UCB. SEPRACOR will reasonably cooperate with UCB in any such action. 

        (c)   The
cost of an action brought by a party against an infringer shall be borne by the party bringing the action. Any amounts recovered shall, after deduction of the costs
of litigation, including all legal costs and expenses incurred by UCB and/or SEPRACOR, be apportioned between UCB and SEPRACOR in the ratio of [**] in favor of UCB, provided
however, that any recovered punitive, exemplary or other enhanced damages shall be apportioned equally between the parties. 

        5.4    Infringement of third party rights    In the event of institution of an infringement action in the TERRITORY by
a third party against UCB alleging infringement of any intellectual property rights of such third party in connection with the manufacture, use, promotion, co-promotion, distribution,
offer for sale, sale or import of PRODUCT by UCB, UCB shall undertake the defense thereof at their own expense and discretion.

constitute a default hereunder, or give rise to any claim for damages, if and to the extent caused by occurrences beyond the control of the party affected, including, but not limited to, acts of God,
strikes or other concerted acts of workmen, civil disturbances, fires, floods, explosions, riots, war, rebellion, sabotage, acts of governmental authority or failure of governmental authority to issue
licenses or approvals which may be required ("Force Majeure"), provided that any such delay shall not extend for more than ninety (90) days; if
such event causes or is reasonably anticipated to cause delay in performance for more than ninety (90) days, then either party may terminate this Agreement, effective upon written notice to the
other party, provided: 

        (i)    The
party asserting the Force Majeure shall promptly notify the other party of the event constituting Force Majeure and of all relevant details of the occurrence and
where appropriate an estimate of how long such Force Majeure event shall continue. 

        (ii)   If
such Force Majeure event continues thereafter and in any event, the parties shall consult with each other in order to find a fair solution and shall use all
reasonable endeavors to minimize the consequences of such Force Majeure. 

        11.2    Assignment—Subcontracting    This Agreement and each and every covenant, term and condition herein
is binding upon and enures to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors. 

9

   
        Neither Party may without the prior written approval of the other, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, assign this Agreement in whole or in part to any party other than its
respective AFFILIATE, provided, however, either party may, without such approval, assign the Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder in connection with the transfer or sale of all or
substantially all of its assets related to the division or the subject business, or in the event of its merger or consolidation or change in control or similar transaction. In the interest of clarity,
the Parties agree that UCB may sublicense or enter into a co-promotion or co-marketing agreement with any third party without consent from SEPRACOR but shall provide notice to
SEPRACOR. 

        Any
assignment of this Agreement, in whole or in part, in violation of this Section 11.2 shall be void. 

        In
the event of subcontracting to an AFFILIATE or assignment, the respective AFFILIATE or assignee shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. 

        11.3    Indemnification    

        (a)   UCB
agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless SEPRACOR, its successors and assigns, and its officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, AFFILIATE and any
person who controls any of such persons (an "Indemnified SEPRACOR Party"), at UCB's cost and expense, from and against any and all liabilities, claims, demands, judgments, losses, costs, damages, fees
or expenses whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys', consultants' and other professional fees and disbursements of every kind, nature and description incurred by such Indemnified SEPRACOR Party in
connection therewith) (collectively, "Damages") that such Indemnified SEPRACOR Party may sustain, suffer or incur arising out of or in connection with claims by a third party alleging infringement of
any intellectual property rights of such third party in connection with the manufacture, use, or sale of PRODUCT, and any actual or alleged injury, damage, death or other consequence occurring to any
person as a result, directly or indirectly, of the possession, use or consumption of any PRODUCT, whether claimed by reason of breach of warranty, negligence, PRODUCT defect or otherwise, and
regardless of the form in which any such claim is made. 

        (b)   SEPRACOR
shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless UCB its successors and assigns, and its officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, AFFILIATES and any
person who controls any of such persons (an "Indemnified UCB Party") at SEPRACOR's cost and expense from and against any liabilities, claims, demands, judgments, losses, costs, damages or expenses
whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys', consultants' and other professional fees and disbursements of every kind, nature and description incurred by such Indemnified UCB Party in connection
therewith) (collectively, "Damages") that such Indemnified UCB Party may sustain, suffer or incur to the extent that such
Damages are attributed to it from any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of SEPRACOR contained in this Agreement or from any action(s) by SEPRACOR with respect to any
SEPRACOR PATENT. 

        (c)   The
indemnification obligations provided for in this Section 11.3 shall be contingent upon the following additional terms and conditions: 

        (i)    the
party claiming indemnification shall have promptly given the indemnifying party timely notice of the facts giving rise to such claim and reasonable
co-operation, information and assistance in connection therewith; 

        (ii)   the
indemnifying party shall have sole control and authority with respect to the defense, settlement or compromise of the claim against the indemnified party. 

        (d)   NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT FOR THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE
LIABLE TO THE OTHER WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS  

10

 

 AGREEMENT, WHETHER UNDER ANY CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, MULTIPLE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
OF THE OTHER PARTY.

        11.4    Publicity    SEPRACOR and UCB shall jointly issue a press release promptly after the execution hereof
concerning this Agreement, which press release shall be agreed to between the parties prior to issue. A party may not publicize or disclose the existence of this Agreement of the terms or conditions
hereof without the prior written consent of the other party, except in furtherance of the exercise of the rights to assign to a third party under Section 11.2 hereof. Nothing in the foregoing,
however, shall prohibit a party from making such disclosures to the extent deemed necessary by counsel under applicable federal or state securities laws or any rule or regulation of any nationally
recognized securities exchange, provided same is accurate and complete. In such event, however, the disclosing party shall consult with the other party prior to such disclosure and, where applicable,
shall request confidential treatment to the extent available. 

        11.5    Headings    Headings are inserted for convenience and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this
Agreement or any article thereof. 

        11.6    Waiver    No waiver of any default hereunder by either party or any failure to enforce any rights hereunder
shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any subsequent default with respect to the same or any other provision hereof. 

        11.7    Severability    Should any part of this Agreement be held unenforceable or in conflict with the applicable
laws or regulations of any jurisdiction, the invalid or unenforceable part or provision shall be replaced with a provision which accomplishes, to the extent possible, the original business purpose of
such part or provision in a valid and enforceable manner, and the remainder of this Agreement shall remain binding upon the parties hereto. 

        11.8    Notices    All notices given by one party to the other party shall be in writing. They shall be deemed given

parties on the subject matter hereof and shall prevail on any other terms. Any amendment or modification to this Agreement shall only be made in writing and shall only be valid when signed by both
parties. 

        11.10    Independent Contractor    The activities to be performed by either Party hereunder are undertaken by it as an
independent contractor and not as an agent of the other Party. Neither Party shall at any time, enter into or incur, or hold itself out to third parties as having authority to enter into or incur on
behalf of the other Party, any commitments, expenses or liabilities whatsoever. It is not the 

11

 

intent
of the Parties hereto to form any partnership or joint venture and it is understood and agreed that no such partnership or joint venture shall be created by this Agreement. 

        11.11    Notification and Authorization Under Drug Price Competition and Patent term Restoration Act    

        (a)    Notices Relating to the Act.    SEPRACOR shall notify UCB of each notice pertaining to any patent included
among the SEPRACOR which SEPRACOR receives as patent owners pursuant to the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 (hereinafter the "Act"), including but not necessarily
limited to notices pursuant to Sections 101 and 103 of the Act from persons who have filed an abbreviated NDA or a "paper" NDA. Such notices shall be given promptly, but in any event within ten
(10) days of receipt of each such notice pursuant to the Act. 

        (b)    Authorization Relating to Patent Term Extension.    SEPRACOR hereby authorizes UCB (a) to include in any
NDA for a PRODUCT, as UCB may deem appropriate under the Act, a list of patents included among the SEPRACOR PATENTS that relate to such PRODUCT and such other information as UCB in its reasonable
discretion believes is appropriate to be filed pursuant to the Act; and (b) in consultation with SEPRACOR, to exercise any rights that may be exercisable by SEPRACOR as patent owners under the
Act to apply for an extension of the term of any patent included among the SEPRACOR PATENTS. SEPRACOR agrees to cooperate with UCB or its sublicensees, as applicable, in the exercise of the
authorizations granted herein or which may be granted pursuant to this Section 11.11 and will execute such documents and take such additional action as UCB may reasonably request in connection
therewith. 

        (c)    SEPRACOR    shall undertake at its cost and expense to file any relevant information in order to ensure
appropriate listing of the relevant SEPRACOR patents in the Orange Book relating to PRODUCT, provided that UCB notifies SEPRACOR promptly upon approval of PRODUCT and provides SEPRACOR promptly after
approval with a copy of the approved labeling for PRODUCT. 

        11.12    Further Actions    Each party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments and to do

interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate. 

        "Adjusted LIBO Rate": with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if
necessary, to the next 1/16 of 1%) equal to (a) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate. 

        "Administrative Agent": JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder; it being understood
that (a) matters concerning Qualified Global Currency Loans (other than Canadian Dollar Loans) will be administered by Chase Manhattan International Limited and therefore all notices concerning
such Loans will be required to be given at the London Administrative Office, (b) matters concerning Canadian Dollar Loans will be administered by The Bank of Nova Scotia and therefore all

ARTICLE II    
    
    THE CREDITS

        SECTION
2.1.    Commitments; Incremental Facilities.    (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, each relevant Lender agrees (i) to severally make Initial Term Loans in Dollars to the Parent Borrower from time to time during the Term Loan Commitment Period in an aggregate principal
amount not exceeding the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender, provided that, at 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Term Loan
Commitment Period, the Available Term Loan Commitment of each Lender, if any, automatically shall be reduced to zero, (ii) to severally make Domestic Revolving Loans in Dollars to the Parent
Borrower from time to time during the Domestic Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Lender's Domestic Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender's
Domestic Revolving Commitment and (iii) to severally make Global Revolving Loans in Dollars or one or more Qualified Global Currencies (as specified in the Borrowing Requests with respect
thereto) to any Borrower from time to time during the Global Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (A) such Lender's Global Revolving Exposure
exceeding such Lender's Global Revolving Commitment or (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Lender's Canadian Dollar Loans at such time exceeding such Lender's Canadian
Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Parent Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Domestic Revolving Loans and any Borrower may
borrow, prepay and reborrow Global Revolving Loans. Amounts repaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed. 

        (b)   So
long as no Default or Event of Default (including, on a pro forma basis, pursuant to Section 6.1) shall be in
existence or would be caused thereby, the Parent Borrower and any one or more Lenders may from time to time agree that such Lenders (or any other additional bank, financial institution or other entity
which becomes a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1(b)) shall add an 

29

 

additional
term loan facility (the loans thereunder, the "Incremental Term Loans") and/or increase the Commitments in respect of any of the Facilities
by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Facility Activation Notice specifying (i) the amount of such Incremental Term Loans and/or Commitment increase, and
(ii) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, (A) the applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, (B) the amortization schedule for such Incremental Term Loans, which shall
comply with Section 2.11(b) and (C) the Applicable Rate for such Incremental Term Loans; provided that the aggregate principal amount of
borrowings of Incremental Term Loans and Commitment increases shall not exceed $250,000,000; provided,  further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing proviso,
 the aggregate principal amount of the Foreign Trade Commitments may be further increased by an
amount not to exceed €21,287,500.00. If the Applicable Rate for such Incremental Term Loans (which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or
original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing such Incremental Loans, with such fees or discount being equated to the interest rates in a manner reasonably determined by the Administrative
Agent in consultation with the Parent Borrower based on an assumed four-year life to maturity) exceeds the Applicable Rate for the other Term Loans by more than 0.50%, the Applicable Rate
relating to such other Term Loans shall be adjusted to be equal to the Applicable Rate for such Incremental Term Loans (which, for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar
fees or original issue discount payable to all Lenders providing such Incremental Loans, calculated in the manner provided above) minus 0.50%. Except
for pricing, amortization and maturity, the terms of the Incremental Term Loans will be the same as the terms of the Initial Term Loans. In the case of any increase in the Commitments under any
Facility (other than any Incremental Term Loan Facility), the terms applicable to such increased Commitments and the Loans thereunder shall be the same as the terms applicable to the Facility being so
increased. In the case of any increase of the Foreign Trade Facility, any new Lender added in connection with such increase must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign
Trade Facility Agent. No Lender shall have any obligation to participate in any Incremental Term Loan or other increase described in this paragraph unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion.
Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), elects to become a
"Lender" under this Agreement in connection with the making of any Incremental Term Loan or the making of any additional Commitment shall execute a New Lender Supplement, whereupon such bank,
financial institution or other entity shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this
Agreement. 

        SECTION
2.2.    Loans and Borrowings.    (a) Each Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be made as part of
a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class;  provided that (i) each Global
Revolving Loan (other than Canadian Dollar Loans) shall be made by the Global Revolving Lenders ratably in
accordance with their respective Available Global Revolving Commitments and (ii) each Canadian Dollar Loan shall be made by the Canadian Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective
Canadian Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder. 

        (b)   Subject
to Section 2.16, (i) each Revolving Borrowing denominated in Dollars and each Term Loan Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or
Eurocurrency Loans as the relevant Borrower may request in accordance herewith and (ii) each Qualified Global Currency Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans. Each
Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan;  provided that any
exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement. 

30

 

        (c)   At
the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and
not less than $10,000,000. At the time that each ABR Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than
$5,000,000; provided that (i) an ABR Domestic Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the
total Domestic Revolving Commitments or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.5(e) and (ii) an ABR Global Revolving Borrowing
may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Global Revolving Commitments. Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000
and not less than $1,000,000. No more than 20 Eurocurrency Borrowings may be outstanding at any one time under the Facilities other than the Global Revolving Facility. Unless otherwise agreed by the
Administrative Agent, no more than 10 Eurocurrency Borrowings may be outstanding at any one time under the Global Revolving Facility. 

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

        SECTION
2.3.    Requests for Borrowings.    To request a Revolving Borrowing or a Term Loan Borrowing, the relevant
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or if the request

New York City time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of an ABR Domestic Revolving Borrowing to
finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.5(e) may be given not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each
such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative
Agent and (x) signed by the Parent Borrower and, in the case of Borrowings by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or (y) in the case of Borrowings by a
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, signed by the Parent Borrower or such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as specified by the Parent Borrower by prior written notice to the Administrative Agent. Each such
telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2: (i) the Borrower requesting such Borrowing (and be signed on behalf of
such Borrower); (ii) the Class and Type of the requested Borrowing; (iii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing; (iv) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;
(v) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto; (vi) the location and number of the relevant Borrower's account to which funds are to

Loans and Swingline Loans, and otherwise shall be in Dollars or a Qualified Global Currency). If no election as to the currency of a Global Revolving Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then
the requested Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing if denominated in Dollars or a
Eurocurrency Borrowing if denominated in a Qualified Global Currency. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the relevant Borrower shall be
deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each
relevant Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender's Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. 

31

 

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

        (b)   To
request a Swingline Loan, the Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy promptly thereafter), not
later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and
amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Parent Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each
Swingline Loan available to the Parent Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Parent Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to
finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.5(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Lender) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of
such Swingline Loan. 

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

32

 

        SECTION
2.5.    Letters of Credit.    (a) General. Subject to
the terms and conditions set forth herein, any Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the

party for each Letter of Credit shall be the Parent Borrower or the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as specified by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender in consultation
with the Parent Borrower. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other
agreement submitted by a Borrower to, or entered into by a Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. The
letters of credit described on Schedule 2.5 (the "Existing Letters of Credit") shall be deemed to be "Letters of Credit" for all purposes of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

        (b)    Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions.    To request the issuance of a Letter
of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the relevant Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in
advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice specifying the name of the relevant Borrower and requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the
Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to
expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the currency in which such Letter of Credit is to be denominated (which shall be Dollars or,
subject to Section 2.22, an Alternative Currency), the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such
Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, the relevant Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender's standard form in connection with any
request for a Letter of Credit. Following receipt of such notice and prior to the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall calculate the Dollar Equivalent of such
Letter of Credit and shall notify the Parent Borrower, the relevant Borrower and the applicable Issuing Lender of the amount of the Total Domestic Exposure after giving effect to (i) the
issuance of such Letter of Credit, (ii) the issuance or expiration of any other Letter of Credit that is to be issued or will expire prior to the requested date of issuance of such Letter of
Credit and (iii) the borrowing or repayment of any Domestic Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans that (based upon notices delivered to the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower) are to be
borrowed or repaid prior to the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension of each Letter of Credit the Parent Borrower and the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
(i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $275,000,000, (ii) the LC Exposure with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, pounds sterling and Euros shall not exceed $275,000,000,

        (c)    Expiration Date.    Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of
(i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the
date that is five Business Days prior to the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date, provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, Letters of Credit having an
aggregate face amount not in excess of $75,000,000 may provide for an expiration date that is more than one year after the date of issuance, so long as such expiration date does not extend beyond the
date referred to in clause (ii) above. 

33

 

        (d)    Participations.    By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the
amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Domestic Revolving Lender, and each
Domestic Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender's Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn
under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Domestic Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in
Dollars, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Lender's Applicable Percentage of (i) each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in Dollars and (ii) the Dollar Equivalent,
using the Exchange Rates on the date such payment is required, of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in an Alternative Currency and, in each case, not reimbursed by the relevant Borrower
on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason (or, if such reimbursement payment was
refunded in an Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent thereof using the Exchange Rates on the date of such refund). Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire
participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or
extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without
any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

        (e)    Reimbursement.    If the applicable Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of
Credit, the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement in Dollars, or (subject to the two immediately
succeeding sentences) the applicable Alternative Currency, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time or the relevant local time, as applicable, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if
such Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time or the relevant local time, as applicable, on such date, or, if such notice has not been
received by such Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time or the relevant local time, as applicable, on the Business Day immediately following the
day that such Borrower receives such notice; provided that, in the case of any LC Disbursement made in Dollars, the relevant Borrower may, subject to
the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.3 or 2.4 that such payment be financed in Dollars with an ABR Domestic Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan
in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower's obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Domestic Revolving Borrowing or Swingline
Loan. If the relevant Borrower's reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any
Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in Dollars, such Borrower shall, at its option, either
(x) pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Lender or Lender or (y) reimburse each LC Disbursement made in such Alternative Currency in
Dollars, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date such LC Disbursement is made, of such LC Disbursement. If the relevant Borrower fails to
make such payment when due, then (i) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action required, such Borrower's obligation to
reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date when such payment was
due, of such LC Disbursement and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender and each other Domestic Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement,
the Dollar Equivalent thereof (if such LC Disbursement relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof 

34

 

and
such Lender's Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Domestic Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Applicable Percentage of
the payment then due from the relevant Borrower (determined as provided in clause (i) above, if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), in the same manner as provided
in Section 2.7 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.7 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the
Domestic Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender in Dollars the amounts so received by it from the Domestic Revolving Lenders. Promptly
following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from any Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or,
to the extent that Domestic Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may
appear. Any payment made by a Domestic Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Domestic Revolving Loans or a
Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 

        (f)    Obligations Absolute.    A Borrower's obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in
paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances
whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any application for the issuance of a Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or
provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such
Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, such Borrower's obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related
Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder
(irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other
communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from
causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender; provided that neither of the foregoing sentences shall be construed to excuse such Issuing
Lender from liability to a Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by
applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender's gross negligence, willful misconduct or failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents
presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Lender (as
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting
the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Lender
may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to
accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

35

 

        (g)    Disbursement Procedures.    The applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof,
examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the relevant Borrower by telephone
(confirmed by telecopy promptly thereafter) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder;  provided that any failure to give or delay in
giving such notice shall not relieve the relevant Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing
Lender and the Domestic Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 

        (h)    Interim Interest.    If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the relevant Borrower
shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC
Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Domestic Revolving Loans;  provided that, if such Borrower
fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then
Section 2.15(c) shall apply; provided further that, in the case of an LC Disbursement made under an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the
amount of interest due with respect thereto shall (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed on or before the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement,
(A) be payable in the applicable Alternative Currency and (B) if not reimbursed on the date of such LC Disbursement, bear interest at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by
the applicable Issuing Lender to be the cost to such Issuing Lender of funding such LC Disbursement plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans at such time and
(ii) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed after the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement (A) be payable in Dollars, (B) accrue on the Dollar
Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date such LC Disbursement was made, of such LC Disbursement and (C) bear interest at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving
Loans, subject to Section 2.15(c). Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of
payment by any Domestic Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

        (i)    Replacement of any Issuing Lender.    Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among
the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of such Issuing
Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Parent Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to
Section 2.14(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of such Issuing Lender under this
Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term "Issuing Lender" shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing
Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party
hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be
required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

        (j)    Cash Collateralization.    If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that a
Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Domestic Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing at least
51% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, such Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the
Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Domestic Revolving Lenders, an amount 

36

 

in
Dollars and in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that (i) the portions of
such amount attributable to undrawn Alternative Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency that the Borrowers are not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the
applicable Alternative Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements and (ii) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective
immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described
in paragraph (h) or (i) of Article VII. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Alternative Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date notice
demanding cash collateralization is delivered to a Borrower. Each Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.12(c). Each
such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to Section 2.12(c) shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of each
Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the
investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the relevant Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear
interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing
Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the relevant Borrower for the
LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Domestic Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing at least 51% of the total LC
Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of such Borrower under this Agreement. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of
an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If a
Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.12(c), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower as
and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, such Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.12(c), and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 

        (k)    Conversion.    In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to
Article VII, all amounts (i) that a Borrower is at the time or thereafter becomes required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements made
under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect of which such Borrower has deposited cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.5(j), if such cash collateral was
deposited in the applicable Alternative Currency to the extent so deposited or applied), (ii) that the Domestic Revolving Lenders are at the time or thereafter become required to pay to the
Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the applicable
Issuing Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and (iii) of each Domestic
Revolving Lender's participation in any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into
the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is made), of such amounts. On and
after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any Lender in respect of the Obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and
be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder. 

        (l)    Additional Issuing Lenders.    The Parent Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of
the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and 

37

 

such
Domestic Revolving Lender, designate one or more additional Domestic Revolving Lenders to act as an issuing lender under the terms of this Agreement,  provided that the total number of Domestic Revolving
Lenders so designated at any time plus the total number of Issuing Lenders pursuant to
clause (c) of the definition of the term "Issuing Lenders" at such time shall not exceed five. Any Domestic Revolving Lender designated as Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph (1)
shall be deemed to be an "Issuing Lender" for the purposes of this Agreement (in addition to being a Domestic Revolving Lender) with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Domestic Revolving
Lender. 

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

38

   
        SECTION 2.6.    Foreign Credit Instruments.    (a) Foreign Trade
Commitments.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Foreign Issuing Lender severally agrees to issue bilateral Foreign Credit Instruments,
Fronted Foreign Credit Instruments and Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the Foreign Trade Commitment of such Lender. Each Existing Foreign
Credit Instrument issued by a Foreign Issuing Lender shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to constitute a Foreign Credit Instrument issued by such Lender and the Foreign Trade Commitment
of such Lender shall be deemed utilized in an amount equal to the Euro Equivalent of all Existing Foreign Credit Instruments issued by it and determined as of the Effective Date, subject to subsequent
determinations of such Euro Equivalent pursuant to Section 2.6(l); provided that (i) with respect to any Existing Foreign Credit
Instrument listed on Part B of Schedule 2.6(a), until the execution and delivery, in accordance with Section 2.23(b), of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement by the relevant account
party under such Foreign Credit Instrument, the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the rights and obligations of such account party and the relevant
Foreign Issuing Lender shall be governed by the documents and instruments evidencing or governing such Foreign Credit Instrument immediately prior to the Effective Date and (ii) with respect to
any standby letter of credit, bank guarantee or surety which is not listed on Schedule 2.6(a) and which has been designated an Existing Foreign Credit Instrument as provided under
clause (b) of the definition thereof, such instrument shall be deemed to be an Existing Foreign Credit Instrument as of the date of such designation (subject to compliance with all other
provisions contained herein (including Section 2.6(d)) and such Foreign Issuing Lender's Foreign Trade Commitment not being exceeded due to the operation of this clause (ii)). Each
Foreign Issuing Lender hereby confirms that the Existing Foreign Credit Instruments issued by it conform to the Mandatory Requirements. 

        (b)    Extension Option.    (i) The Parent Borrower may, not more than twice during the term of this
Agreement, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent (such notice being an "Extension Notice") delivered no
later than 90 and not more than 180 days prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date (or, in the case of the second such notice, no later than 90 and not more than 180 days
prior to the date that is two years after such second anniversary) (the date of such notice, the "Notice Date"), request the Foreign Issuing Lenders to
extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date for an additional two years (the "Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date"). The Foreign Trade
Facility Agent shall promptly transmit any Extension Notice to each Foreign Issuing Lender. Each Foreign Issuing Lender shall notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent whether it wishes to extend the
then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date at least 60 days prior to such anniversary of the Effective Date, and any such notice given by a Foreign Issuing Lender to the Foreign Trade Facility
Agent, once given, shall be irrevocable as to such Lender. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower of each Foreign Issuing Lender's
notice that it wishes to extend (each, an "Extension Acceptance Notice"). Any Lender which does not expressly notify the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on
or before the date that is 60 days prior to the then applicable anniversary of the Effective Date that it wishes to so extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date shall be deemed to
have rejected the Parent Borrower's request for extension of such Foreign Trade Maturity Date. Foreign Issuing Lenders consenting to extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date are
hereinafter referred to as "Extending Lenders", and Foreign Issuing Lenders declining to consent to extend such Foreign Trade Maturity Date (or Lenders
deemed to have so declined) are hereinafter referred to as "Non-Extending Lenders". If the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the
Foreign Trade Facility have elected (in their sole and absolute discretion) to so extend the then applicable Foreign Trade Maturity Date, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall notify the
Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower of such election by such Majority Facility Lenders no later than five Business Days after the date when Extension Acceptance Notices are due, and effective
on the date of such notice by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower (the "Extension Date"), the Foreign
Trade Maturity 

39

 

Date
shall be automatically and immediately so extended to the Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date. No extension will be permitted hereunder without the consent of the Majority Facility Lenders under
the Foreign Trade Facility. Upon the delivery of an Extension Notice and upon the extension of the Foreign Trade Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.6(b)(i), the Parent Borrower shall be
deemed to have represented and warranted on and as of the Notice Date and the Extension Date, as the case may be, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation to extend the Foreign Trade Maturity Date, and each Lender may at its option, unconditionally and without
cause, decline to extend the Foreign Trade Maturity Date. Upon request of the Parent Borrower, each Extending Lender may, by written notice to the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
Foreign Trade Facility Agent, increase its Foreign Trade Commitment to an amount agreed with the Parent Borrower, provided that the aggregate amount of
the Foreign Trade Commitments of all Foreign Issuing Lenders following such increase does not exceed an amount equal to the amount of the Foreign Trade Facility at the time the relevant Extension
Notice is given. 

         (ii)  If
the Foreign Trade Maturity Date shall have been extended in accordance with Section 2.6(b)(i), all references herein to the "Foreign Trade Maturity Date"
shall refer to the Extended Foreign Trade Maturity Date. 

        (iii)  The
Foreign Trade Commitment of each Non-Extending Lender shall be cancelled and reduced to zero on the Foreign Credit Maturity Date applicable immediately
prior to the relevant extension (the "Non-Extending Lender Maturity Date") and, from and after the date such Lender becomes a
Non-Extending Lender, such Lender shall not issue any Foreign Credit Instrument that matures after such Non-Extending Lender Maturity Date. 

        (iv)  To
the extent any Foreign Credit Instruments (including Fronted Foreign Credit Instruments) issued by a Non-Extending Lender are outstanding on the
Non-Extending Lender Maturity Date, the relevant Non-Extending Lender may, in its discretion and with at least 30 days' prior written notice to the relevant Borrower,
require that such Borrower provide Cash Cover (or any other credit support (including Counter-Guarantees) to be agreed upon with the Parent Borrower at such Lender's full discretion) not later than
the Non-Extending Lender Maturity Date (the "Cash Cover Extension"). 

         (v)  Each
outstanding Foreign Credit Instrument issued by a Non-Extending Lender shall, as of the Non-Extending Lender Maturity Date, cease to be
treated as a Foreign Credit Instrument issued under this Agreement. Except to the extent otherwise agreed by such Non-Extending Lender and the Parent Borrower, Sections 2.6(h), 2.6(m)(v),
2.6(m)(vi), 2.6(n)(iii), 2.6(n)(v) and 2.10(a) of this Agreement shall be applicable mutatis mutandis with respect to the outstanding Foreign
Credit Instruments issued by such Non-Extending Lender as if such provisions had been agreed in a bilateral agreement between the relevant Borrower and the Non-Extending
Lender. In the case of a Cash Cover Extension, the relevant Non-Extending Lender shall pay, at the end of each month, interest on the amount deposited by the relevant Borrower with it
pursuant to Section 2.6(m)(v), to be calculated on a daily basis (A) if the deposited amount is in Euros, at a rate of EONIA and (B) in the case of any other currency, the rate
reasonably determined by such Lender as the rate such Lender would receive for overnight deposits in the relevant currency from any other bank or financial institution, in each case  minus 0.15% per
annum. 

        (c)    Procedure for Issuance and Reversals.    Each Borrower may, at any time and from time to time during the period
from the Effective Date until the Foreign Trade Maturity Date, request the issuance of Foreign Credit Instruments or an extension or other amendment of any outstanding Foreign Credit Instrument by
sending to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent a duly completed request for issuance (each, a "Utilization Request") by electronic transfer using the db
direct internet in accordance with the terms of the DB Direct Internet Agreement. Only if for technical reasons it should not be possible to make a request for issuance through db direct internet,
such request may be made (to be pre-advised by 

40

 

telephone
by the relevant Borrower) via fax or by letter, in substantially the form of Exhibit K, in each case to a fax number or address agreed with the Foreign Trade Facility Agent for this
purpose, receipt of such fax or letter to be promptly confirmed by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent by telephone to a number agreed with the relevant Borrower for this purpose,  provided that in such
case explicit reference has to be made to this Agreement and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall in such case not be held
responsible for a delayed processing of such Utilization Request unless such delayed processing is caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent
following the confirmation of the receipt of the relevant fax or letter. As the Foreign Trade Facility Agent will not, in the event a Utilization Request is submitted by telefax, be in a position to
verify whether such Utilization Request has been duly authorized and sent by the relevant Borrower, each Borrower hereby agrees that the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall be entitled to execute all
Utilization Requests received by telefax if on their face such telefax letters seem to be duly authorized and executed by persons acting on behalf of such Borrower who have been identified as
authorized signatories in annex 1.3.1 to the DB Direct Internet Agreement or in the officer's certificate furnished pursuant to Section 4.1(i). Neither the Foreign Trade Facility Agent nor any
of the Lenders shall be held liable for the execution of any forged Utilization Request received by telefax except where the forgery is evident or the Foreign Trade Facility Agent or the respective
Foreign Issuing Lender acted in gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Utilization Request will be regarded as having been duly completed unless: 

          (i)  the
requested Foreign Credit Instrument would constitute a Warranty Guarantee, a Performance Guarantee, an Advance Payment Guarantee, a Tender Guarantee, a
Counter-Guarantee or a General Purpose Guarantee; 

         (ii)  the
proposed wording (if any) for the requested Foreign Credit Instrument is in accordance with the Mandatory Requirements; 

        (iii)  the
requested Foreign Credit Instrument is denominated in a Permitted Currency or any other currency agreed by the Foreign Issuing Lender determined by the Foreign
Trade Facility Agent as the Foreign Issuing Lender to issue the requested Foreign Credit Instrument in accordance with Section 2.6(g); 

        (iv)  the
specific expiry date of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument, which must not be linked to any events in the underlying contract and which is not subject to any
interpretation, or, if the requested Foreign Credit Instrument does not provide for such determination of a specific expiry date, the Commercial Lifetime, shall fall within the Permitted Maturity; 

         (v)  the
obligor of the obligations to be secured by the requested Foreign Credit Instrument is named; and 

        (vi)  upon
issuance of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument (for this purpose such Foreign Credit Instrument is deemed to be issued at the time of receipt of the
Utilization Request therefor by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent), the thresholds for the different types of Foreign Credit Instruments set forth under Section 2.6(d) would not be exceeded. 

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

41

 

Foreign
Issuing Lender shall be required to issue a Foreign Credit Instrument in any jurisdiction that would impose withholding taxes on any payments in respect of such Foreign Credit Instrument. 

        (d)    Limitations on Use.    The Borrowers may only request the issuance of Foreign Credit Instruments if: 

          (i)  the
Euro Equivalent of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Euro Equivalent of all other outstanding Foreign Credit Instruments and
unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request, does not exceed the total Foreign Trade Commitments; 

         (ii)  if
the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes a Warranty Guarantee, the Euro Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Euro
Equivalent of all other outstanding Warranty Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of Warranty Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request,
does not exceed 30% of the total Foreign Trade Commitments; 

        (iii)  if
the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes a Performance Guarantee, the Euro Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Euro
Equivalent of all other outstanding Performance Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of Performance Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization
Request, does not exceed 60% of the total Foreign Trade Commitments; 

        (iv)  if
the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes an Advance Payment Guarantee, the Euro Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the
Euro Equivalent of all other outstanding Advance Payment Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of Advance Payment Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant
Utilization Request, does not exceed 45% of the total Foreign Trade Commitments; 

         (v)  if
the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes a Tender Guarantee, the Euro Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Euro
Equivalent of all other outstanding Tender Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of Tender Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant Utilization Request, does
not exceed 10% of the total Foreign Trade Commitments; and 

        (vi)  if
the requested Foreign Credit Instrument constitutes a General Purpose Guarantee, the Euro Equivalent of such Foreign Credit Instrument, when aggregated with the Euro
Equivalent of all other outstanding General Purpose Guarantees and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements in respect of General Purpose Guarantees as of the time of receipt of the relevant
Utilization Request, does not exceed 10% of the total Foreign Trade Commitments. 

If
the Foreign Trade Facility Agent is of the opinion that a requested Foreign Credit Instrument is not of the type as specified in the Utilization Request by a Borrower or if the type of Foreign
Credit Instrument is not clearly specified in the relevant Utilization Request, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall reasonably determine the type of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument based on
the purpose (or, if such Foreign Credit Instrument is intended to serve more than one purpose, the primary purpose) assumed by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent on the basis of the wording of the
relevant requested Foreign Credit Instrument and the facts and circumstances known to it at the time of the receipt of such Utilization Request, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall inform such
Borrower accordingly of such determination. If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the relevant Borrower mutually determine at a later stage that a Foreign Credit Instrument shall fall into another
category, such re-qualification shall be taken into account for the purpose of this Section 2.6(d). No Foreign Credit Instruments shall be issued (and no Borrower shall make such a
Utilization Request) which serve as security for obligations of any Person other than a Borrower or a Subsidiary. 

42

 

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

        (f)    Determination of Foreign Issuing Lender.    (i) Following the receipt of a Utilization Request, the
Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine whether in its opinion the requested Foreign Credit Instrument fulfills the conditions under Sections 2.6(c) and 2.6(d). If the Foreign Trade Facility
Agent is of the opinion that the requested Foreign Credit Instrument does not fulfill such conditions it shall promptly inform the relevant Borrower and shall liaise with such Borrower with a view to
agree on a modification of such Utilization Request. If no such agreement can be reached, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall reject the Utilization Request. If the Foreign Trade Facility Agent is
of the opinion (as the case may be, following a modification of such Utilization Request) that the conditions under Sections 2.6(c) and 2.6(d) are fulfilled and no specific Foreign Issuing Lender has
been determined in accordance with clause (iii) below it shall forward such Utilization Request for issuance of the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument to the Foreign Issuing Lender(s)
determined in accordance with clause (ii) below. 

         (ii)  In
order to ensure that the Foreign Credit Instruments are issued substantially on a pro rata basis, the Foreign Trade
Facility Agent shall allocate the Foreign Credit Instrument to the Foreign Issuing Lender with the lowest relative utilization of its Foreign Trade Commitment as of the time of receipt of such
Utilization Request and, if two or more Foreign Issuing Lenders have an identical relative utilization of their respective Foreign Trade Commitments, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall allocate
the Foreign Credit Instrument to one of these Foreign Issuing Lenders in its free discretion. 

        (iii)  If
a Borrower informs the Foreign Trade Facility Agent that in its reasonable opinion (or if the Foreign Trade Facility Agent reasonably believes that) the beneficiary
of the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument will only accept a specific Foreign Issuing Lender or a Foreign Issuing Lender meeting specific criteria as issuer or if for any other commercial or legal
reason a specific Foreign Credit Instrument should, in the reasonable opinion of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, be issued by a specific Foreign Issuing Lender, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent
shall deviate from (ii) above and allocate the requested Foreign Credit Instrument to (A) such Foreign Issuing Lender, provided that such
Lender has a sufficient unused Foreign Trade Commitment or (B) any Foreign Issuing Lender 

43

 

meeting
the respective criteria which has a sufficient unused Foreign Trade Commitment, provided that in the case of this clause (B), the Foreign
Trade Facility Agent shall allocate the Foreign Credit Instrument among the qualifying Foreign Issuing Lenders applying the rules set forth under clause (ii) above  mutatis mutandis. 

        (iv)  If
the Foreign Trade Facility Agent determines that, due to the amount of the requested Foreign Credit Instrument, the requested Foreign Credit Instrument cannot be
issued by a single Foreign Issuing Lender, it shall promptly inform the relevant Borrower and such Borrower shall then either withdraw the relevant Utilization Request or instruct the Foreign Trade
Facility Agent that the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument: 

        (A)  shall
be split into two or, if necessary due to the amount of the Foreign Credit Instrument, more Foreign Credit Instruments issued by several Foreign Issuing Lenders
(to be determined in accordance with clauses (ii) and (iii) above); 

        (B)  shall
be issued as a Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument in accordance with Section 2.6(k); or 

        (C)  if
in the reasonable opinion of such Borrower the procedures under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) will not be acceptable to the beneficiary or for other
reasons not feasible, shall be issued as a Fronted Foreign Credit Instrument in accordance with Section 2.6(j). 

         (v)  In
no event shall the aggregate amount of the sum of the Euro Equivalent of all Foreign Credit Instruments issued by a Foreign Issuing Lender plus the Euro Equivalent of
all unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements of such Lender exceed the amount of such Lender's Foreign Trade Commitment. 

        (g)    Issuance of Foreign Credit Instruments.    (i) The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly forward
each Utilization Request to the respective Foreign Issuing Lender(s) no later than 3:00 p.m., Düsseldorf time, on the Business Day following the day it has received such
Utilization Request (or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the Business Day following the first Business Day after the day the Foreign Trade Facility Agent has received the Utilization Request)
(the "Latest Notification Day"). The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine in its notice to the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender the day on which
the requested Foreign Credit Instrument shall be issued (such day being the "Utilization Date") which shall be the second Business Day of such Foreign
Issuing Lender immediately following its receipt of the Utilization Request. If, on the Utilization Date, banks are not open for business at the place of the Lending Office of the relevant Foreign
Issuing Lender determined in accordance with Section 2.6(f)(ii) but are open for business at the place of the Lending Office of any other Foreign Issuing Lender, the Foreign Trade
Facility Agent shall allocate the Foreign Credit Instrument in accordance with Section 2.6(f)(ii) to another Foreign Issuing Lender which is open for business at such day which shall
then act as the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender to which the Utilization Request shall be forwarded. Such Foreign Issuing Lender(s) shall issue the respective Foreign Credit Instrument(s) on the
Utilization Date unless such Foreign Issuing Lender informs the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the relevant Borrower on or prior to 5:00 p.m., Düsseldorf time, on the
Utilization Date that (and for which reasons) (x) it will not be able to issue the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument on the Utilization Date (in which case the Foreign Issuing Lender shall
inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and such Borrower when it will be able to issue the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument) or (y) it will not be able to issue the Foreign Credit Instrument
at all (1) due to its internal rules and guidelines, or (2) due to any applicable law or regulation with which it has to comply, or (3) due to the currency (other than any
Permitted Currency) in which the Foreign Credit Instrument shall be issued, (4) because it is of the opinion that the Mandatory Requirements are not fulfilled or (5) because it is of the
opinion that the Dispensable Requirements are not fulfilled. 

44

 

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

        (iii)  (A)
In the cases referred to in clause (x) or clause (y)(3) of Section 2.6(g)(i) above, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall obtain, and
follow, instructions from the relevant Borrower, (B) in the cases referred to in clause (y)(1), (2), (4) and (5) of Section 2.6(g)(i) above, the relevant
Borrower shall agree with the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender any amendments necessary to the respective Foreign Credit Instrument to enable the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender to issue the relevant
Foreign Credit Instrument and, in the case of sub-paragraph (y)(5), Section 2.6(e) shall apply mutatis mutandis,
(C) if, in the cases referred to under (A) or (B) above, no agreement can be reached between the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender and the relevant Borrower, such Foreign Issuing
Lender shall reject the request to issue the requested Foreign Credit Instrument and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall promptly allocate the Foreign Credit Instrument to another Foreign Issuing
Lender and the time for issuance of the Foreign Credit Instrument shall be postponed to the extent necessary for practical reasons. Such Foreign Issuing Lender shall promptly inform the Foreign Trade
Facility Agent about all changes agreed with such Borrower with respect to a Utilization Request in accordance with this clause (iii). 

        (iv)  The
relevant Foreign Issuing Lender may either issue the Foreign Credit Instrument directly or, if requested by and agreed with the relevant Borrower, arrange that the
Foreign Credit Instrument (an "Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument") be issued by a second bank (including one of its affiliates) or financial
institution (the "Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender") against its corresponding Counter-Guarantee. In case of an Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument, such
Foreign Issuing Lender is entitled to receive, for payment to the Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender, separate fees and expenses in respect of such Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument in addition to the
fees and expenses pursuant to Section 2.6(n). In line with international practices, the validity of a Counter-Guarantee in favor of the Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender will exceed the validity
of the Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument by at least ten calendar days. 

         (v)  If
a Utilization Request is made to request an amendment (including an extension) of any outstanding Foreign Credit Instrument, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall
forward the Utilization Request to the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender if the requirements of Section 2.6(d) are fulfilled. Clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 2.6(g)
shall apply mutatis mutandis. 

        (vi)  Each
Foreign Issuing Lender shall comply at all times with the obligations set forth on Schedule 2.6(g). 

       (vii)  If
the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender has not rejected the request to issue a Foreign Credit Instrument, the requested currency of which is not a Permitted Currency,
the relevant Borrower assumes all risks related thereto and shall reimburse all costs related to the procurement of such currency for honoring such Foreign Credit Instrument in such specific currency. 

        (h)    Borrower Liabilities.    (i) If a Foreign Issuing Lender receives a request for payment under any
Foreign Credit Instrument (including from a Fronting Guarantor or Indirect Foreign Issuing Lender under a Counter-Guarantee) issued by it, it shall promptly (and before any payment is made in respect
thereof) inform the relevant Borrower, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent accordingly. Such Foreign Issuing Lender may, upon receipt of such demand but not earlier than one
Business Day following the notification of the relevant Borrower of the request for payment, make any payment (each, a "Foreign Credit Disbursement") in
accordance with the terms of the relevant 

45

 

Foreign
Credit Instrument without any reference to or further authority from such Borrower or any other investigation or inquiry, provided that
(A) the demand for payment appears on its face to be in compliance with the terms specified in such Foreign Credit Instrument, (B) the demand is not obviously fraudulent or forged or
conclusive evidence is shown thereof and (C) in case of suretyships (other than upon first demand), such Lender will take into consideration permissible objections or defenses relating to the
underlying commercial contract with the beneficiary to the extent that such Borrower, after having been advised of the receipt of a payment demand, has promptly given written evidence thereof to such
Lender, in order that it can transmit the same to the beneficiary of such Foreign Credit Instrument. 

         (ii)  Each
Borrower shall, upon demand from the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender, irrevocably and unconditionally indemnify such Lender against any sum paid in accordance with
clause (i) above under a Foreign Credit Instrument issued by such Lender at the request of such Borrower and against all other liabilities, reasonable costs (including any costs incurred in
funding any amount paid by such Lender under or in connection with such Foreign Credit Instrument), claims, losses and expenses which such Lender may at any time (whether before, on or after the
Foreign Trade Maturity Date) reasonably incur or sustain in connection with or arising out of any such Foreign Credit Instrument. 

        (iii)  If
a Foreign Issuing Lender has made payment to another Foreign Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 2.6(s), such Lender shall, in addition to any right
assigned to it against the relevant Borrower in connection with such payment, be entitled to demand from such Borrower to be indemnified against any such payment in accordance with clause (ii)
above. 

        (iv)  Each
Borrower agrees that if (A) it has requested the issuance of a surety payable upon first demand with respect to an obligation in the underlying contract
(governed by German law) which provides for warranty and/or performance obligations to be secured by means of a Foreign Credit Instrument and (B) the classification of such obligation to
provide for such surety payable upon first demand as an individual agreement between the relevant counterparties is disputed (clauses (A) and (B) together, the
"Invalid First Demand Feature"), any invalidity of the underlying contract, the instruction to issue such Foreign Credit Instrument or of the Foreign
Credit Instrument itself resulting from the Invalid First Demand Feature shall be disregarded for any purposes under and in connection with this Agreement, in particular in connection with the
indemnity provided for in this Section 2.6(h), and that it will refrain (x) from taking any steps of any kind which are based on the Invalid First Demand Feature and which are destined
to hinder the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender from fulfilling its obligations under and in connection with such Foreign Credit Instrument in compliance with its terms and (y) from disputing any
reimbursement claims based on the Invalid First Demand Feature, unless it provides such Foreign Issuing Lender with obvious and undisputable documentary evidence for a fraudulent demand under such
Foreign Credit Instrument enabling and giving such Lender the right to refuse to honor such a demand. 

          (i)  Reversal of Foreign Credit Instruments. (i) Each Foreign Issuing Lender will notify the Foreign Trade Facility
Agent on each Business Day about any expiration or reduction of the Face Amount of any Foreign Credit Instrument or Counter-Guarantee issued by it which became effective the preceding Business Day
(the "Foreign Credit Instrument Termination Date") (a "Utilization Reduction Notice"). With respect to: 

        (A)  a
Foreign Credit Instrument (other than a Counter-Guarantee or an Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument) which under its terms expires without any doubt if no demand has
been received by such Foreign Issuing Lender on or before a specified expiry date, such Foreign Issuing Lender will, on the next Business Day following the expiry date, give a Utilization Reduction
Notice, unless the terms of such Foreign Credit Instrument provide that it shall be governed in accordance with the laws of any country other than a country which has been a member state of 

46

 

the
European Union as of December 2002 (in which case clause (B) below shall apply mutatis mutandis); 

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

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

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

        (E)  a
Foreign Credit Instrument (including a Counter-Guarantee where the related Indirect Foreign Credit Instrument is), expressly subject to the Uniform Rules for Demand
Guarantees of the International Chamber of Commerce in Paris, such Foreign Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice if under said rules a reversal of a letter of credit or
guarantee would have to be made; 

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

        (G)  any
Foreign Credit Instrument in relation to which such Foreign Issuing Lender has effected full payment pursuant to a demand so that the beneficiary would not be
entitled to claim any further payment, such Foreign Issuing Lender will give a Utilization Reduction Notice. 

         (ii)  If
a claim under a Foreign Credit Instrument is lodged with the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender after such Foreign Issuing Lender has given a Utilization Reduction
Notice with respect to such Foreign Credit Instrument: 

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

47

 

        (B)  the
relevant Borrower shall (1) indemnify such Foreign Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 2.6(h) and (2) pay to such Foreign Issuing Lender
an amount equal to the Foreign Credit Commission such Lender would have received if the relevant Foreign Credit Instrument would have been outstanding from the date the relevant Utilization Reduction
Notice has been given until the date payment is made by such Borrower to the Foreign Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 2.6(h) minus the
amount of the corresponding Foreign Credit Commitment Fee paid to such Foreign Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.6(m) in respect of such Foreign Credit Instrument for that period. 

        (iii)  From
and including the day the Utilization Reduction Notice is made, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender shall treat each Foreign
Credit Instrument subject to such Utilization Reduction Notice for any calculations under this Agreement, as non-existing or, as the case may be, as reduced as specified in the Utilization
Reduction Notice, provided that, for the purpose of calculating the fees in respect of the Foreign Trade Facility pursuant to Section 2.6(n),
such Foreign Credit Instrument shall in any case be treated as non-existing, or, as the case may be, as reduced from the day following the Foreign Credit Instrument Termination Date. 

        (j)    Fronted Foreign Credit Instruments.    (i) If a Foreign Credit Instrument for which a Utilization
Request has been made shall be issued as a Fronted Foreign Credit Instrument, the relevant Borrower may request a specific Foreign Issuing Lender to act as Fronting Lender with respect to such Fronted
Foreign Credit Instrument and, if no specific Foreign Issuing Lender is nominated by the Borrower as Fronting Lender, the Foreign Issuing Lender which has the Foreign Trade Commitment with the lowest
percentage of utilization shall be requested to act as Fronting Lender with respect to such Fronted Foreign Credit Instrument. In case the Foreign Issuing Lender so determined is not in a position to
accept such request due to internal policies or insufficient credit lines for the other Foreign Issuing Lenders which would act as Fronting Guarantors, it shall promptly inform such Borrower and the
Foreign Trade Facility Agent accordingly. The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall then, unless requested otherwise by such Borrower, forward the request to all other Foreign Issuing Lenders. The
Foreign Issuing Lender whose acceptance will reach the Foreign Trade Facility Agent first shall then act as Fronting Lender with respect to the requested Fronting Foreign Credit Instrument. 

         (ii)  The
Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall, with a view to arrange for an equal utilization of each of the Foreign Trade Commitments and in consent with the Fronting
Lender, select certain of the Foreign Issuing Lenders to provide Counter-Guarantees to the Fronting Lender with respect to its claim for indemnification against the relevant Borrower pursuant to
clause (iii) below (each such Foreign Issuing Lender a "Fronting Guarantor"), provided that no
Foreign Issuing Lender so selected is required to act as Fronting Guarantor if this would not be in accordance with its internal policies. Each such Fronting Guarantor shall be deemed for all purposes
hereof to have issued a Counter-Guarantee to the Fronting Lender for the amount counter-guaranteed by it and, with respect to the determination of the utilization of the Foreign Trade Commitment of
the Fronting Lender only, the amount not covered by Counter-Guarantees shall be treated as utilized. 

        (iii)  The
Fronting Lender shall issue a Fronted Foreign Credit Instrument to the respective beneficiary in its own name. In the event a Fronting Lender receives a request
for payment under any Fronted Foreign Credit Instrument issued by it, it shall promptly inform the relevant Borrower, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the respective Fronting Guarantors thereof
and the Fronting Guarantors shall reimburse the Fronting Lender under the respective Counter-Guarantees accordingly and such Borrower shall indemnify the Fronting Guarantors and the Fronting Lender in
accordance with Section 2.6(h). 

        (k)    Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instruments.    (i) If a Foreign Credit Instrument for which a
Utilization Request has been made shall be issued as a Joint Signature Foreign Credit Instrument, then the relevant Borrower will approach the relevant beneficiary to win its preparedness to accept a
Joint 

48

 

Signature
Foreign Credit Instrument. In case of the beneficiary's acceptance, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent will, in close coordination with such Borrower and taking account of the allocation rules
pursuant to Section 2.6(f), select the relevant Foreign Issuing Lenders (the "Joint Foreign Issuing Lenders") prepared to issue the Joint
Signature Foreign Credit Instrument and acceptable to the beneficiary. 

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

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

        (l)    Determination of Euro Equivalent.    On each Business Day on which at least one Foreign Credit Instrument is
outstanding under this Agreement, or there is any other Foreign Trade Exposure, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall determine the amount of the Euro Equivalent of all outstanding Foreign Credit
Instruments and unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements (in each case adjusted to reflect any repayment, prepayment or reversal of any relevant Foreign Credit Instrument) on the basis of the foreign
exchange rates for the previous Business Day which shall be determined as follows: 

          (i)  if
the conversion rate of the respective currency into Euros is published on the internet page "www.db-markets.com" as "Foreign Exchange Fixing Rates" (on
the sub-page "Historical Rates", further sub-page "Foreign Exchange Fixing Rates") or on any other internet page replacing such internet page, the calculation shall be based on
the rates displayed on such internet page; and 

         (ii)  if
the conversion rate of the respective currency into Euros is not published on the internet page "www.db-markets.com" as "Foreign Exchange Fixing Rates"
(on the sub-page "Historical Rates", further sub-page "Foreign Exchange Fixing Rates") or on any other internet page replacing such internet page, the calculation shall be
based on the previous month's foreign exchange rates published on the same internet page on the sub-page "Historical Rates", further sub-page
"End-of-Month prices". 

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

        (m)    Cash Cover; Fronting Cover.    (i) If, pursuant to a Daily Report issued on the last Business Day of
any calendar month (each a "Rebasing Date"), the aggregate Euro Equivalent of the Foreign 

49

 

Trade
Exposure of a Foreign Issuing Lender exceeds the amount of the Foreign Trade Commitment of such Lender by more than 5% (the exceeding amount being the "Excess
Amount"), the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender (the "Affected Foreign Issuing Lender") may request in writing from the relevant
Borrower, within a period of five Business Days following receipt of the respective Daily Report, Cash Cover with respect to such Excess Amount, and such Borrower shall, within a period of three
Business Days following receipt of the demand from the Affected Foreign Issuing Lender to receive Cash Cover, either provide for Cash Cover in accordance with clause (v) below or request from
such Affected Foreign Issuing Lender that it shall, with respect to certain selected Foreign Credit Instruments issued by such Affected Foreign Issuing Lender, act as Fronting Lender for another
Foreign Issuing Lender nominated by such Borrower in its request (provided that such Foreign Issuing Lender has a sufficient unused Foreign Trade
Commitment) which shall act with respect to the relevant Foreign Credit Instruments as Fronting Guarantor in accordance with Section 2.6(j) so that, following the implementation of the fronting
structure, the aggregate Euro Equivalent of the Foreign Trade Exposure of such Affected Foreign Issuing Lender which is not covered by Fronted Foreign Credit Instruments does not exceed the amount of
its respective Foreign Trade Commitment (the "Fronting Cover"). Such Affected Foreign Issuing Lender shall decide in its sole discretion whether it
wants to accept Fronting Cover and, if Fronting Cover is rejected, the relevant Borrower shall provide for Cash Cover within three Business Days following the receipt of a notice from such Affected
Foreign Issuing Lender that it does not accept Fronting Cover. 

         (ii)  If
an Affected Foreign Issuing Lender elects to receive Fronting Cover, such Affected Foreign Issuing Lender and the relevant Borrower shall inform the Foreign Trade
Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent accordingly and such fronting shall be implemented in accordance with Section 2.6(j) within three Business Days. 

        (iii)  Clauses
(i) and (ii) above shall be applicable mutatis mutandis if, in respect of any Rebasing Date
subsequent to a Rebasing Date in respect of which Cash Cover or Fronting Cover had been provided, the Excess Amount has increased by an amount equal to at least 5% of the relevant Affected Foreign
Issuing Lender's Foreign Trade Commitment due to fluctuation of currency exchange rates. 

        (iv)  If
in respect of any Rebasing Date subsequent to a Rebasing Date in respect of which Cash Cover or Fronting Cover had been provided pursuant to clause (i) above
to an Affected Foreign Issuing Lender, the Excess Amount (as shown in the relevant Daily Report) with respect to such Affected Foreign Issuing Lender has been reduced to zero (either through
fluctuation of currency exchange rates or through the reduction or expiration of any Foreign Credit Instruments issued by such Affected Foreign Issuing Lender), such Lender shall release the whole or
relevant part of the Cash Cover or, as the case may be, the Fronting Cover within three Business Days of the relevant Rebasing Date. 

         (v)  If
a Borrower is obliged to provide for Cash Cover under this Agreement, such Borrower shall pay the relevant amount for which it shall provide Cash Cover (A) in
the case of clause (i) above, in Euros and (B) in all other cases (if not agreed otherwise with the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender receiving the Cash Cover) in the currency of the
respective Foreign Credit Instrument for which Cash Cover has to be provided to an account of the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender (such deposited amount, the "Cash Cover") notified by such Lender to
the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and such Borrower for such purpose. Such account shall be an interest bearing account (subject to Section 2.6(b)(v), with the amount of interest to be
determined by such Foreign Issuing Lender in accordance with its standard business practice) in the name of the relevant Borrower and such account shall be pledged to the respective Foreign Issuing
Lender on the basis of a pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Foreign Issuing Lender. 

        (vi)  Notwithstanding
the obligation of any Foreign Issuing Lender to release any Cash Cover pursuant to clause (iv) above, any Cash Cover provided by a Borrower with
respect to a specific 

50

 

Foreign
Credit Instrument shall, unless otherwise agreed with such Borrower, be released by the Foreign Issuing Lender that received such Cash Cover together with accrued interest thereon to such
Borrower as soon as the Foreign Credit Instrument so collateralized has expired (the criteria under Section 2.6(i) shall be applicable mutatis
mutandis). If only some Foreign Credit Instruments for which Cash Cover has been provided to a specific bank have expired or the obligations under which have only expired in
part, the Cash Cover shall be released pro rata. 

        (n)    Commissions and Fees.    (i) Foreign Credit
Commission.  Each Borrower agrees to pay, in accordance with clause (vi) below, with respect to each Foreign Credit Instrument requested by it, a commission
(a "Foreign Credit Commission") in an amount equal to the greater of (A) €50 per annum and (B) the Applicable Rate for
Foreign Credit Instruments calculated on a daily basis on the Euro Equivalent of the outstanding amount of such Foreign Credit Instrument. The Foreign Credit Commission shall be paid in accordance
with clause (vi) below in advance for each calendar quarter. In the case of any adjustment of the amount of a Foreign Credit Instrument during a calendar quarter (as the case may be, due to the
issuance of a new Foreign Credit Instrument, expiration, amendment, cancellation, extension, return or otherwise), the calculation of the Foreign Credit Commission shall be revised accordingly and, as
the case may be, the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender shall credit or debit the relevant amount against the next quarterly payment. In the case of any adjustment to the Applicable Rate during a
calendar quarter, (x) the calculation of the Foreign Credit Commission with respect to outstanding Foreign Credit Instruments shall be revised accordingly and the relevant Foreign Issuing
Lender shall credit or debit the relevant amount against the next quarterly payment (it being understood and agreed that any revision to the Foreign Credit Commitment due to a change in the Applicable
Rate for Foreign Credit Instruments shall be calculated based on the Euro Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding amount of Foreign Credit Instruments issued by such Lender on the date of such change
in Applicable Rate) and (y) with respect to any Foreign Credit Instrument issued after any such change in Applicable Rate, the Foreign Credit Commission shall be calculated at the Applicable
Rate for Foreign Credit Instruments in effect on the date of such issuance. Where credits or debits as contemplated by the two immediately preceding sentences are not possible, the balance shall be
paid by the respective Foreign Issuing Lender or, as the case may be, the relevant Borrower to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent for distribution to the respective recipient in accordance with
clause (vi) below. 

        (ii)    Foreign Credit Commitment Fee.    The Parent Borrower agrees to pay, or to cause the relevant Borrower to pay,
at the beginning of each calendar quarter in accordance with clause (vi) below, to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent for the account of each Foreign Issuing Lender, a commitment fee (a
"Foreign Credit Commitment Fee") which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of each Foreign Trade Commitment of such
Lender during the previous calendar quarter. For purposes of computing the Foreign Credit Commitment Fee, the Foreign Trade Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the
outstanding Foreign Trade Exposure of such Lender. 

        (iii)    Handling Fee.    Each Borrower shall, with respect to the issuance or amendment of any Foreign Credit
Instrument by a Foreign Issuing Lender, pay to such Lender, at the beginning of each calendar quarter in accordance with clause (vi) below, a handling fee of €100 with respect
to each Foreign Credit Instrument so issued, and €75 with respect to each Foreign Credit Instrument so amended, by such Lender during the previous calendar quarter (the
"Foreign Credit Handling Fee"). 

        (iv)    Fronting Fee.    With respect to each issuance of a Fronted Foreign Credit Instrument requested by a Borrower,
such Borrower shall pay, in advance for each calendar quarter in accordance clause (vi) below, a fronting fee in the amount of 0.125% per annum on the Euro Equivalent of such Fronted Foreign
Credit Instrument, calculated in accordance with the general practice of such Lender on the amount of such Fronted Foreign Credit Instrument which is subject to one or more Counter-Guarantees (the
"Foreign Credit Fronting Fee"). With respect to any such calculation, the last three sentences of clause (i) above shall apply  mutatis mutandis.

51

 

        (v)    Other Fees and Expenses.    Each Borrower shall, within three Business Days following written demand from a
Foreign Issuing Lender that has issued a Foreign Credit Instrument for such Borrower, reimburse such Lender for all reasonable costs (including internal costs) and expenses (including legal fees)
incurred by such Lender and evidenced to such Borrower in connection with the handling of any claims made against such Lender under any Foreign Credit Instrument issued by it. 

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

        (o)    Termination.    With respect to each Foreign Credit Instrument issued and which is or under which claims are
still outstanding on the Foreign Trade Maturity Date, the relevant Foreign Issuing Lender may (separately with respect to each such Foreign Credit Instrument), by written notice to the relevant
Borrower made not later than 30 days prior to the Foreign Trade Maturity Date, require that such Borrower provide Cash Cover (or other credit support satisfactory to such Lender) which shall
then be provided by such Borrower no later than the Foreign Trade Maturity Date. Section 2.6(b)(v) shall apply mutatis mutandis. 

        (p)    Cancellation.    (i) The Parent Borrower may, by giving to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the
Foreign Trade Facility Agent, not less than 15 days' prior written notice, cancel the whole or any part (being a minimum of €10,000,000) of the then unused Foreign Trade
Commitments without premium or penalty to the extent a ratable reduction of each Foreign Issuing Lender's Foreign Trade Commitment is possible with respect to the amount so cancelled. 

         (ii)  If
any Foreign Issuing Lender claims a payment or indemnification from any Borrower under Section 2.17, the Parent Borrower may, within 30 days thereafter
and by not less than 15 days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, cancel such Foreign Issuing Lender's unused Foreign Trade
Commitment whereupon such Foreign Issuing Lender shall cease to be obliged to issue further Foreign Credit Instruments and its unused Foreign Trade Commitment shall be reduced to zero. The remaining
amount of such Foreign Issuing Lender's Commitment shall be cancelled automatically in whole, or, as the case may be, in part with the receipt by the Foreign Trade Facility Agent of the Utilization
Reduction Notice(s) with respect to the Foreign Credit Instruments issued by such Foreign Issuing Lender and still outstanding. 

        (iii)  Any
notice of cancellation given by the Parent Borrower pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date upon which
such cancellation is to be made and the amount of such cancellation. 

        (iv)  Cancelled
Foreign Trade Commitments cannot be reinstated. 

52

 

        (q)    Daily and Monthly Reports.    The Foreign Trade Facility Agent shall send to the Foreign Issuing Lenders, the
Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, via e-mail to the addresses and persons notified for this purpose by such Persons to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, (i) on each
Business Day, a report (the "Daily Report") (A) stating the Euro Equivalent for all outstanding Foreign Credit Instruments as determined for such
Business Day, (B) listing, for each Foreign Issuing Lender, as of such Business Day, the Euro Equivalent of the outstanding Foreign Credit Instruments issued by such Lender and the percentage
of each such Lender's utilized Foreign Trade Commitment, and (C) containing the further information about the utilization of the Foreign Trade Facility as specified on Schedule 2.6(q),
and (ii) not later than the fifth Business Day of each calendar month, a report stating all overdue Foreign Credit Instruments and all Foreign Credit Instruments falling due within such month
and the following calendar month. The Parent Borrower and each Foreign Issuing Lender shall inform the Foreign Trade Facility Agent by 5:00 p.m., Düsseldorf time, on the fifth
Business Day following receipt of a Daily Report if it does not agree with any recordings in such Daily Report. 

        (r)    Unreimbursed Foreign Credit Disbursements.    Each Foreign Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Foreign
Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent of any Foreign Credit Disbursement of such Lender that has not been reimbursed by or on behalf of the relevant Borrower and shall include in such
notice (i) the date of the Foreign Credit Disbursement, (ii) the name of the relevant Borrower and (iii) the amount (including the currency) of such Foreign Credit Disbursement. 

        (s)    Sharing.    If any Foreign Issuing Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim
or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any Foreign Credit Disbursement resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Foreign Credit
Disbursements than the proportion received by any other Foreign Issuing Lender in respect of its Foreign Credit Disbursement, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash
at face value) participations in the Foreign Credit Disbursements of other Foreign Issuing Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Foreign
Issuing Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of their respective Foreign Credit Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such
recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of
this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Foreign Issuing Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Foreign Trade Commitments to any assignee or
participant, other than to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to
the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Foreign Issuing Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of
set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

53

   
        SECTION 2.7.    Funding of Borrowings.    (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan (other than any Incremental
Term Loan) to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders,
in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, in the case of fundings to an account in New York City, or 12:00 noon, local time, in the case of fundings to an account
in another jurisdiction; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans
available to the relevant Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, which account must be in
the name of such Borrower and, as applicable, in London or in the financial center of the country of the currency of the Loan; provided that ABR
Domestic Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.5(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Lender.
Any funding of Incremental Term Loans shall be made pursuant to such procedures as shall be agreed to by the Parent Borrower, the relevant Incremental Term Lenders and the Administrative Agent. 

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

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

54

 

        (b)   To
make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would
be required under Section 2.3 if such Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such
telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the
Administrative Agent and signed by the relevant Borrower. 

        (c)   Each
telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2 and paragraph (a) of this
Section: (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies; (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a
Business Day; (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest
Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election. If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the relevant
Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. 

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

        (e)   If
the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars prior to the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. If the relevant
Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Qualified Global Currency prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable
thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Loan having an Interest Period of
one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the
Parent Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing denominated in Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing,
(ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) no Borrowing
denominated in a Qualified Global Currency having an Interest Period in excess of one month may be made or continued. 

        SECTION
2.9.    Termination and Reduction of Commitments.    (a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the
Term Loan Commitments shall terminate at 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Term Loan Commitment Period, (ii) the Domestic Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the
Domestic Revolving Maturity Date, (iii) the Global Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Global Revolving Maturity Date and (iv) the Foreign Trade Commitments shall terminate on
the Foreign Trade Maturity Date. 

        (b)   The
Parent Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that
(i) each reduction of the Commitments (other than Foreign Trade Commitments) of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000,
(ii) the Parent Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with
Section 2.12, (A) the Total Domestic Exposure would exceed the total Domestic Revolving Commitments, (B) the Total Global Exposure would exceed the total Global Revolving
Commitments or (C) the Total Foreign Trade Exposure would exceed the total Foreign Trade 

55

 

Commitments
and (iii) each reduction of Foreign Trade Commitments shall be made in accordance with Section 2.6(p). 

        (c)   The
Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section, at least
three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative
Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Parent Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable;  provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving
Commitments delivered by the Parent Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the
effectiveness or closing of other credit facilities, debt financings or Dispositions, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Parent Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior
to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made
ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class. 

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

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

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

        (d)   Any
Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver
to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory
note and interest (and premium, if any) thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.4) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to
such payee and its registered assigns. 

        SECTION
2.11.    Repayment of Loans.    (a) The Parent Borrower shall repay the Initial Term Loans on each
date set forth below in an amount equal to (i) the percentage set forth below opposite 

56

 

such
date multiplied by (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Initial Term Loans actually drawn by the Parent Borrower: 

	Date
 
	 	Percentage
	 
	June 30, 2006	 	0.67	%
	September 30, 2006	 	0.67	%

	September 30, 2010	 	17.00	%
	Term Loan Maturity Date	 	17.00	%

        (b)   The
Parent Borrower shall repay Incremental Term Loans in consecutive installments (which shall be no more frequent than quarterly) as specified in the Incremental
Facility Activation Notice pursuant to which such Incremental Term Loans were made; provided that the weighted average life of each Incremental Term
Loan shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life of the other Term Loans. 

        (c)   The
Parent Borrower shall repay (i) the then unpaid principal amount of the Domestic Revolving Loans on the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date and (ii) the
then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a
calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Domestic Revolving Borrowing is
made, the Parent Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding. 

        (d)   Each
Borrower shall repay the then unpaid principal amount of the Global Revolving Loans on the Global Revolving Maturity Date. 

        SECTION
2.12.    Prepayment of Loans.    (a) Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to
time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section, provided that Canadian B/As may not be optionally
prepaid. 

        (b)   If
on any date any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Parent Borrower shall,
within ten Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, apply an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Net Proceeds, first, to prepay Term
Loans and, second, to reduce permanently the Term Loan Commitments; provided that, in the case of any
event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of the term Prepayment Event, if the Parent Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer
to the effect that the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries intend to apply the Net Proceeds from such event ("Reinvestment Net Proceeds"), within
360 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds, to make Permitted Acquisitions or Investments permitted by Section 6.5 or acquire 

57

 

real
property, equipment or other assets to be used in the business of the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries, and certifying that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then
no prepayment or Commitment reduction shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of such event except to the extent of any Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end
of such 360-day period, at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds that have not been so applied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the
date during any fiscal year of the Parent Borrower on which the aggregate gross proceeds (inclusive of amounts of the type described in the first parenthetical of Section 6.6(d)) from
Dispositions pursuant to Section 6.6(d) received during such fiscal year exceed 10% of Total Consolidated Assets, the Net Proceeds from each subsequent Prepayment Event occurring during such
fiscal year resulting from Dispositions pursuant to Section 6.6(d) (and a ratable amount of Net Proceeds from any Prepayment Event that first causes the aforementioned 10% threshold to be
exceeded, which ratable amount shall be determined by reference to a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the portion of the gross proceeds from such Prepayment Event representing the excess
above such 10% threshold and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate gross proceeds from such Prepayment Event) may not be treated as Reinvestment Net Proceeds. 

        (c)   If
on any Determination Date relating to the Global Revolving Facility, the Total Global Exposure exceeds 105% of the total Global Revolving Commitments, the Parent
Borrower shall, without notice or demand, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, prepay (or cause the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to prepay) Revolving Borrowings in an
aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, (i) the Total Global Exposure does not exceed the total Global Revolving Commitments and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of all Canadian Dollar Loans does not exceed the total Canadian Commitments. If on any Determination Date relating to the Domestic Revolving Facility, the Total Domestic Exposure exceeds 105%
of the total Domestic Revolving Commitments, the Parent Borrower shall, without notice or demand, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, prepay Revolving Borrowings or Swingline
Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.5(j)) in an aggregate amount such that, after
giving effect thereto, the Total Domestic Exposure does not exceed the total Domestic Revolving Commitments. 

        (d)   A
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy promptly thereafter) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of
prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or 11:00 a.m., London time, as applicable), three Business Days before the date of prepayment,
(ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of
prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal
amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment;  provided that, if a notice of
optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as
contemplated by Section 2.9, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.9. Promptly following receipt of any such
notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an
amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.2, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory
prepayment. 

        SECTION
2.13.    Certain Payment Application Matters.    (a) Each repayment or prepayment of a Borrowing shall
be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. It is understood that, in the case of Global Revolving Loans, the relevant Borrower may select the particular currency 

58

 

of
Loans to be prepaid, and such prepayment shall then be applied ratably to such Loans. Repayments and prepayments of Term Loan Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount
repaid. 

        (b)   Any
mandatory prepayment of Term Loans shall be allocated pro rata among the Initial Term Loans and any Incremental Term
Loans based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class. Any optional prepayment of Term Loans shall be allocated as directed by the Parent Borrower to the Initial
Term Loans and/or the Incremental Term Loans. Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed. 

        (c)   Each
prepayment shall be applied to the installments thereof, first to any remaining scheduled installments due prior to
the first anniversary of the date of such prepayment (applied pro rata to such remaining installments) and,  second, to the remaining scheduled installments
due on or after the first anniversary of the date of such prepayment (applied  pro rata to such remaining installments). 

        SECTION
2.14.    Fees.    (a) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay, or to cause the relevant Borrower to pay, to
the Administrative Agent for the account of each relevant Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of each Commitment (other than the
Foreign Trade Commitment) of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall
be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which such Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date
hereof. Commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first
day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees in respect of the Commitments, (i) the Domestic Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the
extent of the outstanding Domestic Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose), (ii) the Global Revolving
Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Global Revolving Loans of such Lender and (iii) the Term Loan Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be
used to the extent of the outstanding Initial Term Loans of such Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, the commitment fee in respect of the Foreign Trade Facility is set forth in
Section 2.6(n)(ii). 

        (b)   Each
Borrower agrees to pay: 

          (i)  to
the Administrative Agent for the account of each Domestic Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall
accrue at the same Applicable Rate as interest on Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender's LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC
Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender's Domestic Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such
Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure; 

         (ii)  to
the applicable Issuing Lender a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any
portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Domestic Revolving
Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Lender's standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of
Credit or processing of drawings thereunder; and 

        (iii)  to
the applicable Foreign Issuing Lender, the fees and commissions set forth in Section 2.6(n). 

59

 

Participation
fees and fronting fees pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be
payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such
fees shall be payable on the date on which the Domestic Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Domestic Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable
on demand. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.6(n),
any other fees payable to the applicable Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting
fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For the purposes of
calculating the average daily amount of the LC Exposure for any period under this Section 2.14(b), the average daily amount of the Alternative Currency LC Exposure for such period shall be
calculated by multiplying (x) the average daily balance of each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (expressed in the currency in which such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is
denominated) by (y) the Exchange Rate for each such Alternative Currency in effect on the last Business Day of such period or by such other reasonable method that the Administrative Agent deems
appropriate. 

        (c)   Each
Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between such Borrower
and the Administrative Agent. 

        (d)   Each
Borrower agrees to pay to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Mandated Arrangers in respect of the Foreign Trade Facility, for their respective accounts, fees
payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between such Borrower and such Person. 

        (e)   All
fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Lender or Foreign
Issuing Lender, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 2.6(n), fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 

        SECTION
2.15.    Interest.    (a) ABR Loans shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable
Rate. 

        (b)   Eurocurrency
Loans shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate. 

        (c)   Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any principal of or interest (or premium, if any) on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid
when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of
overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the
rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section (or, in the case of amounts denominated in a Qualified Foreign Global Currency the rate that would apply to
Loans in such currency pursuant to clause (i) above), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is
paid in full (as well after as before judgment). 

        (d)   Accrued
interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the
Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand,
(ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Domestic Revolving Availability Period or Global Revolving
Availability Period, as applicable), accrued interest (and premium, if any) on the principal amount 

60

 

repaid
or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period
therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

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

        SECTION
2.16.    Alternate Rate of Interest.    If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency
Borrowing: 

        (a)   the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; 

        (b)   the
Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Facility Lenders under the relevant Facility that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately
and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; or 

        (c)   the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such
Borrowing and in the currency in which such Loans are to be denominated are not generally available in the relevant market; 

then
the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and the relevant Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative
Agent notifies the Parent Borrower and the relevant Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, then, in the case of the relevant Facility, any request by a Borrower for
a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the affected Type or in the affected currency, or a conversion to or continuation of a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the affected Type or in the affected currency, pursuant to
Section 2.3 or 2.8, shall be deemed rescinded; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings,
then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted. 

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

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

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

and
the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the net cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to
increase the cost to such Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument or to reduce the amount of any
sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest, premium or otherwise), then each relevant Borrower will pay to such
Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such 

61

 

Lender,
Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

        (b)   If
any Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the
rate of return on such Person's capital or on the capital of such Person's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or
Foreign Credit Instruments held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, or the Foreign Credit Instruments issued by such Foreign Issuing Lender, to a level below that
which such Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender or such Lender's, Issuing Lender's or Foreign Issuing Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into
consideration such Person's policies and the policies of such Person's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender, Issuing
Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Person or such Person's holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

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

        (d)   Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of
such Person's right to demand such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender, Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing
Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Person notifies such Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to
such increased costs or reductions and of such Person's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving
rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

62

  

        SECTION 2.18.    Break Funding Payments.    In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any
Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on
the last day of the Interest Period (or, in the case of Canadian B/As, the Canadian Contract Period) applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving
Loan or Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.12(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith),
or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period (or, in the case of Canadian B/As, the Canadian Contract Period) applicable thereto as a result
of a request by the Parent Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21, then, in any such event, the relevant Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such
event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of
interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date
of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period (or, in the case of Canadian B/As, the Canadian Contract Period) therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or
continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period or Canadian Contract Period, as applicable, for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such
principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount and
period from other banks in the relevant market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to
the relevant Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and shall be so delivered as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Lender obtains actual knowledge of such amount. Such
Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

        SECTION
2.19.    Taxes.    (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes; provided that if a Borrower
shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made,
(ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

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

        (c)   Each
Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes
paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified
Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by a Lender,
or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and shall be so delivered as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Lender
or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, obtains actual knowledge of such amount. 

63

 

        (d)   As
soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

        (e)   Each
Lender that is not a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a "Non-U.S.
Lender") shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement either: 

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

        (B)  in
the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not a "Bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and that does not comply with the
requirements of clause (A) hereof, (x) a statement in the form of Exhibit F (and any similar statements required to certify to the exemption of its beneficial owners) or such
other form of statement as shall be reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower from time to time to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender (and, where applicable, its beneficial owners) is
eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of United States federal income taxes under Code Section 871(h) or 881(c), and (y) two duly completed and signed original copies of
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or successor and related
applicable forms (including, where applicable, copies of such forms with respect to such entity's beneficial owners). 

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

        (f)    Each
Lender which is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver to Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and if applicable the assigning or participating
Lender) two copies of a 

64

 

statement
which shall contain the address of such Lender's office or place of business in the United States, which shall be signed by an authorized officer of such Lender, together with two duly
completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) unless it establishes to the satisfaction of the Parent Borrower that it is otherwise eligible
for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other applicable withholding tax. Each such Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and Administrative Agent two further duly completed and signed
forms and statements (or successor form) at or before the time any such form or statement becomes obsolete. 

        (g)   Each
Non-U.S. Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Borrower from and against any Taxes imposed by or on behalf of the United States or any
taxing jurisdiction thereof, penalties, additions to tax, fines, interest or other liabilities, costs or losses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) incurred or
payable by such Borrower as a result of the failure of such Borrower to comply with its obligations to deduct or withhold any Taxes imposed by or on behalf of the United States or any taxing
jurisdiction thereof (including penalties, additions to tax, fines or interest on such Taxes) from any payments made pursuant to this Agreement to such Non-U.S. Lender or the
Administrative Agent which failure resulted from (i) such Borrower's reliance on Exhibit F pursuant to Section 2.19(e) or (ii) such Lender being a "conduit entity" within
the meaning of Treasury Reg. Section 1.881-3 or any successor provision thereto; and, provided additionally, that, without limitation, no amounts shall be due and owing to such
Lender pursuant to Section 2.19 if either provisions (i) or (ii) are applicable. 

        (h)   If
the Administrative Agent or any Lender receives a refund in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by a Borrower, which in the reasonable good faith
judgment of such Lender is allocable to such payment, it shall promptly pay such refund, together with any other amounts paid by such Borrower in connection with such refunded Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes, to such Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender incurred in obtaining such refund, provided,  however, that each Borrower
agrees to promptly return such refund to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender as the case may be, if it
receives notice from the Administrative Agent or applicable Lender that such Administrative Agent or Lender is required to repay such refund. 

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

        SECTION
2.20.    Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.    (a) Each Borrower
shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, premium, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements or Foreign Credit
Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.17, 2.18 or 2.19, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no
such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, local time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such
time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next 

65

 

succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at its Administrative Office, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt
thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any
payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, each such payment (other than (i) principal of
and interest on Qualified Global Currency Loans and LC Disbursements denominated in an Alternative Currency, which shall be made in the applicable Qualified Global Currency or, except as otherwise
specified in Section 2.5(e), Alternative Currency, as the case may be, (ii) the Foreign Credit Commission, the Foreign Credit Commitment Fee, the Foreign Credit Handling Fee and the
Foreign Credit Fronting Fee, which shall be made in Euros and (iii) other payments in respect of the Foreign Credit Instruments and Foreign Credit Disbursements thereunder, which shall be made
in the currency applicable to such Foreign Credit Instrument) shall be made in Dollars. 

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

        (c)   If
any Lender (other than a Foreign Issuing Lender) shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any
principal of or interest (or premium, if any) on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater
proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest (and premium, if any) thereon than the proportion
received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC
Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of
principal of and accrued interest (and premium, if any) on their respective Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans;  provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such
participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to
any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a
participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the
provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct
creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. The provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to payments obtained by a Foreign Issuing Lender, in its capacity as
such, and the parties hereto understand and agree that the sharing provisions applicable to the Foreign Trade Facility are set forth in Section 2.6(s). 

66

 

        (d)   Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of
the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith
and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each relevant Lender severally
agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to
it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of
overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). 

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

        SECTION
2.21.    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.    (a) If any Lender requests compensation
under Section 2.17, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, then
such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices,
branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.19, as the case may
be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

        (b)   If
(i) any Lender (other than a Foreign Issuing Lender) requests compensation under Section 2.17, (ii) any Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, (iii) any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder
or (iv) any Lender becomes a "Non-Consenting Lender" (as defined below), then the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.4), all its interests, rights and
obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);  provided that (A) the Parent Borrower
shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and Foreign Credit Disbursements and participations in LC
Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest (and premium, if any) thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding
principal and accrued interest and fees) or such Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (C) in the event of a replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender, in order for the
Parent Borrower to be entitled to replace such a Lender, such replacement must take place no later than 120 days after the date the Non-Consenting Lender shall have notified the
Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its failure to agree to any requested consent, waiver or amendment. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior
thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling a Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. In the event that (x) the Parent
Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested the 

67

 

Lenders
to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or to agree to any amendment thereto, (y) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement
of all Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 9.2 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Facility or Class of Loans or Commitments and (z) the Required Lenders, the
Majority Facility Lenders with respect to a particular Facility or Lenders holding more than 50% of the Loans or Commitments of a particular Class, as applicable, have agreed to such consent, waiver
or amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed a "Non-Consenting Lender". 

        SECTION
2.22.    Change in Law.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, after the date hereof,
(a) any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, or any Global Revolving Lender to make Global Revolving
Loans denominated in a Qualified Global Currency, or any Canadian Lender to accept Canadian B/As, or any Foreign Issuing Lender to issue any Foreign Credit Instruments, or (b) there shall have
occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates that would make
it impracticable for any Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit denominated in such Alternative Currency for the account of a Borrower, or any Global Revolving Lender to make Global Revolving Loans
denominated in a Qualified Global Currency, or any Canadian Lender to accept Canadian B/As, or any Foreign Issuing Lender to issue any Foreign Credit Instruments, then by prompt written notice thereof
to the Parent Borrower and to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (i) such Issuing Lender may declare that Letters of Credit
will not thereafter be issued by it in the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies, whereupon the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies shall be deemed (for the
duration of such declaration) not to constitute an Alternative Currency for purposes of the issuance of Letters of Credit by such Issuing Lender, (ii) such Global Revolving Lender may declare
that Global Revolving Loans will not thereafter be made by it in the affected Qualified Global Currency or Qualified Global Currencies, whereupon the affected Qualified Global Currency or Qualified
Global Currencies shall be deemed (for the duration of such declaration) not to constitute a Qualified Global Currency for purposes of the making of Global Revolving Loans by such Global Revolving
Lender, (iii) the commitment of such Canadian Lender hereunder to accept Canadian B/As and continue Canadian B/As as such shall forthwith be cancelled (for the duration of such declaration) and
such Lender's Canadian B/As, if any, shall (on the respective last days of the then current Canadian Contract Periods or within such earlier period as required by law) be converted automatically to
Eurocurrency Borrowings having an Interest Period of one month and (iv) such Foreign Issuing Lender may declare that such affected Foreign Credit Instruments will not thereafter be issued by it
and the commitment of such Foreign Issuing Lender to issue such affected Foreign Credit Instruments shall forthwith be cancelled (for the duration of such declaration). 

        SECTION
2.23.    Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers.    (a) Subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent, the
Parent Borrower may designate any Foreign Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing
Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary, the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent and upon such delivery such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility and a party to this Agreement until the Parent Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary
Termination with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
(i) no Canadian Borrower (as defined in Schedule 1.7) may request Global Revolving Loans or other extensions of credit hereunder from any Lender other than a Canadian Lender and
(ii) no such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility at a time when any Obligations of such Foreign
Subsidiary 

68

 

Borrower
shall be outstanding thereunder or any Letters of Credit issued for the account of Such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding (which shall not have been cash collateralized in a
manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.5(f)), provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate such
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower's right to make further borrowings under the Global Revolving Facility. 

        (b)   Subject
to the consent of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower may designate any Foreign Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower
as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility by delivery to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such
Subsidiary, the Parent Borrower, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent and upon such delivery such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility and a party to this Agreement until the Parent Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent a
Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility. Notwithstanding the
preceding sentence, (i) no Borrower that is organized under the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof may request Foreign Credit Instruments from any Lender other than a Foreign
Issuing Lender that is organized under the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof or that agrees, in its sole discretion, to issue Foreign Credit Instruments to such Borrower and
(ii) no such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility at a time when any Obligations of such Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding thereunder or any Foreign Credit Instruments issued for the account of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding (which shall not have been cash
collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.6(m)(v)), provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary
Termination shall be effective to terminate such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower's right to request further Foreign Credit Instruments or other extensions of credit under the Foreign Trade Facility. 

        (c)   For
the avoidance of doubt, no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be liable for the Obligations of any other Loan Party. 

        (d)   The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Global Revolving Lenders of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower added pursuant to Section 2.23(a), and the Foreign
Trade Facility Agent shall promptly notify each Foreign Issuing Lender of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower added pursuant to Section 2.23(b).

        (b)   Except
as disclosed in the financial statements referred to above or the notes thereto or in the Information Memorandum and except for the Disclosed Matters, based on
the facts and circumstances in existence on the Effective Date and taking into consideration the likelihood of any realization with respect to contingent liabilities, after giving effect to the
Transactions, none of the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries has, as of the Effective Date, any material contingent liabilities, unusual long-term commitments or unrealized losses. 

        (c)   Since
December 31, 2004, there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries does not infringe upon
the rights of any other Person. 

        SECTION
3.6.    Litigation and Environmental Matters.    (a) There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or
before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of the Parent Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
(i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if 

70

 

adversely
determined, could reasonably be expected, in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that involve any of the Loan Documents or the Transactions. 

        (b)   Except

the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. 

        SECTION

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

        SECTION
3.10.    ERISA.    No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together
with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except to the extent such excess could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plan, and the present
value
of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the
most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans. 

        SECTION

agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is subject, and all other matters known to any of them, that, in the aggregate,
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Information Memorandum nor any of the other reports, financial statements, certificates or other information, taken as a
whole, furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or delivered hereunder or
thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Parent
Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time. 

71

 

        SECTION
3.12.    Subsidiaries.    Schedule 3.12 sets forth the name of, and the direct and indirect ownership
interest of the Parent Borrower in, each Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower and identifies each Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case as of the Effective Date after giving effect to
the Transactions. 

        SECTION
3.13.    Labor Matters.    Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect: (a) there are no strikes, lockouts, slowdowns or other labor disputes against the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent Borrower,
threatened; (b) the hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable
Federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters; and (c) all payments due from the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary, or for which any claim may be made against the Parent
Borrower or any Subsidiary, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Parent Borrower or such
Subsidiary. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which
the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary is bound. 

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

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

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

as of any Collateral Date following the Ratings Event, any property of the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a "Grantor" under any Security Document
or any Subsidiary that is required to become a "Grantor" pursuant to Section 5.11(a) (including any parcel of owned domestic real property having a fair market value in excess of $10,000,000
but excluding (A) all other real property, (B) Capital Stock not required to be pledge pursuant to Section 5.11(a), (C) assets that cannot be pledged as collateral due to

79

 

        (e)   Promptly,
and in any event within 30 days (or such longer period as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent), following the first date after the

deliver, and cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to execute and deliver, to the Administrative Agent security documents, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, pursuant

Person that constituted Collateral under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Release Date (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include Capital Stock not
required to be pledged pursuant to Section 5.11(a)) and (ii) take, and cause the relevant Subsidiaries to take, such actions as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent to grant and perfect such Liens, including actions described in Section 5.12, all at the expense of the Loan Parties.

such a Lien, the Capital Stock or debt (whether or not represented by promissory notes) of or issued by a Receivables Entity to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case in
connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction permitted by Section 6.6(c).

the Loan Documents or to grant, preserve, protect or perfect the Liens created or intended to be created by the Security Documents or the validity or priority of any such Lien, all at the expense of
the Loan Parties. The Parent Borrower also agrees to provide to the Administrative Agent, from time to time upon request, evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as to the
perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Security Documents. 

        SECTION
5.13.    Post-Closing Matters.    Within 60 days after the Effective Date (or such longer

92

 

condition
described in clause (ii) of this paragraph (g) shall not at any time constitute an Event of Default unless, at such time, one or more events or conditions of the type described

        (o)   the
Subordinated Debt or any Guarantees thereof shall cease, for any reason, to be validly subordinated to the Obligations or the obligations of the Subsidiary

of the Subordinated Debt or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Subordinated Debt shall so assert; or 

93

 

        (p)   a
Change of Control shall occur; 

then,
and in every such event (other than an event with respect to any Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of

ARTICLE VIII    
    
    THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

        Each
of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such
powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. For the purposes of
Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Canadian Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent in its
capacity as agent and holder of a power of attorney of each such Canadian Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

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

        The
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the
Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have
any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is
required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.2), and
(c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information
relating to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative
Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary
under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.2) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be 

94

 

deemed
not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any
certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set
forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction
of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

        The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or
other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and
believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower),
independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

        The
Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions
of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their
respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

        Subject
to the appointment and acceptance of a successor to the Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the
Lenders and the Parent Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Parent Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been
so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring
Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the
acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by any Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be
the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Parent Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Article and Section 9.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent. 

        Each
Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective affiliates and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance
upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its
own 

95

 

decisions
in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

        For
the avoidance of doubt, each of the foregoing references to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be deemed to include (a) the Canadian Administrative Agent and the
Canadian Lenders and (b) the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Foreign Issuing Lenders, as applicable. Neither the Syndication Agent nor any Documentation Agent shall have any duties or
responsibilities hereunder in its capacity as such.

Any
party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party
hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt. Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or

Party may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it;  provided that approval of such
procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 

        SECTION
9.2.    Waivers; Amendments.    (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in
exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative 

96

 

and
are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any
event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit or a Foreign Credit Instrument shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default
or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

        (b)   Neither
this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant
to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document; provided that no such agreement shall: 

          (i)  increase
the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender; 

         (ii)  reduce
the principal amount of or subordinate the principal of any Loan, LC Disbursement or Foreign Credit Disbursement, or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or
reduce any premium or fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 

        (iii)  extend
the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, or postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, LC Disbursement or Foreign
Credit Disbursement, or any interest (or premium, if any) thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive, excuse or subordinate any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date
of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 

        (iv)  require
any Lender to make Loans having an Interest Period of one year or longer, without the written consent of such Lender; 

         (v)  amend,
modify or waive any provision of this Agreement in any manner that would change the application of mandatory prepayments hereunder disproportionately as among the
Facilities without the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of each Facility adversely affected thereby; 

        (vi)  amend,
modify or waive the first sentence of Section 2.13(a) without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 

       (vii)  change
any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of "Required Lenders" or "Majority Facility Lenders" or any other provision of any Loan Document
specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the
written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be); 

      (viii)  release
or subordinate the Guarantee from the Parent Borrower or all or substantially all of the Guarantees from the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender; or 

        (ix)  release
or subordinate all or substantially all of the Liens of the Security Documents on the Collateral (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents), without
the written consent of each Lender. 

97

 

        (c)   In
addition, notwithstanding the foregoing: 

          (i)  this
Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans
(as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Initial Term Loans or all outstanding Incremental Term Loans ("Refinanced Term Loans")
with a replacement "A" or "B" term loan tranche, as applicable, hereunder ("Replacement Term Loans"),  provided that (A) the aggregate principal amount
of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such
Refinanced Term Loans, (B) the Applicable Rate for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Rate for such Refinanced Term Loans, (C) the weighted average life
to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans
at the time of such refinancing and (D) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such
Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final
maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing; 

         (ii)  this
Agreement may be amended to provide for the increases in the Commitments and/or Incremental Term Loans contemplated by Section 2.1(b), and matters related
thereto, upon (A) execution and delivery by the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender increasing its Commitment and/or providing Incremental Term Loans of an Incremental

        (iii)  this
Agreement may be amended (A) to add any Foreign Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility upon
execution and delivery by the Parent Borrower, such Foreign Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement providing for such Subsidiary to become a Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility and (B) to remove any Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving Facility upon (x) written notice by the Parent
Borrower and such Subsidiary to the Administrative Agent to such effect and (y) repayment in full of all outstanding Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Global Revolving
Facility; 

        (iv)  this
Agreement may be amended (A) to add any Foreign Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility upon
execution and delivery by the Parent Borrower, such Foreign Subsidiary, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement providing for such Subsidiary
to become a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility and (B) to remove any Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility upon
(x) written notice by the Parent Borrower and such Subsidiary to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent to such effect, (y) repayment in full of all outstanding
Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility and (z) the expiration or termination (or full cash collateralization or provision of other credit support in a
manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.6(m)(v)) of all Foreign Credit Instruments issued for the account of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower; and 

         (v)  this
Agreement may be amended (A) to change any of the mechanics applicable to Foreign Credit Instruments set forth in Section 2.6, with the written
consent of the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the Parent Borrower and the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Foreign Trade Facility, and (B) to change any of
the mechanics applicable to Foreign Credit Instruments set forth in Section 2.6 solely to the extent necessary to permit a 

98

 

Foreign
Credit Instrument to be issued in a particular country in accordance with applicable local Requirements of Law, with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Foreign Trade Facility
Agent, each Foreign Issuing Lender directly affected thereby and the Parent Borrower; provided that (x) no amendment pursuant to this
clause (v) shall have the effect of making any change described in the proviso to Section 9.2(b) and (y) no amendment pursuant to clause (B) above shall have the effect of
making any change to Section 2.6 in respect of Foreign Credit Instruments (and any related Foreign Trade Exposure) issued or to be issued outside of such country. 

        SECTION
9.3.    Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.    (a) The Parent Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative
Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the
provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, with
statements with respect to the foregoing to be submitted to the Parent Borrower prior to the Effective Date (in the case of amounts to be paid on the Effective Date) and from time to time thereafter
on a quarterly basis or such other periodic basis as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate, (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing
Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument or any demand for payment thereunder and
(iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made
or Letters of Credit or Foreign Credit Instruments issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in
respect of such Loans, Letters of Credit or Foreign Credit Instruments. 

        (b)   The
Parent Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an
"Indemnitee") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any
Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or
instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the
Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan, Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an
Issuing Lender or Foreign Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly
comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument, as applicable), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property
currently or formerly owned or operated by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or
(iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee. 

99

 

        (c)   To
the extent that the Parent Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, any Foreign Issuing Lender or
the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender, Foreign Issuing Lender or the
Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender's pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity
payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as
the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender, such Foreign Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a
Lender's "pro rata share" shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and unused
Commitments at the time; provided that (i) in the case of amounts owing to any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, in each case in its
capacity as such, a Lender's "pro rata share" shall be determined based solely upon its share of the sum of Domestic Revolving Exposures and unused
Domestic Revolving Commitments at the time and (ii) in the case of amounts owing to any Foreign Issuing Lender, in its capacity as such, a Lender's "pro
rata share" shall be determined based solely upon its share of the sum of Foreign Trade Exposures and unused Foreign Trade Commitments at the time. 

        (d)   To
the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan, Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

        (e)   All
amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 15 days after written demand therefor. Statements payable by the Parent Borrower pursuant to
this Section shall be sent to Attention of Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer (Telephone No. 704-752-4400) (Telecopy No. 704-752-7487),
at the address of the Parent Borrower set forth in Section 9.1, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Parent Borrower in a written notice to the
Administrative Agent. 

100

   
        SECTION 9.4.    Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.    (a) The provisions of this
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that a Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer
any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Borrower without such consent shall be null and void).
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the
extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

        (b)   Any
Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the
Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate, each of the Parent
Borrower and the Administrative Agent must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed),  provided that the consent of the
Administrative Agent shall be required for any assignment to an assignee in respect of any Revolving Facility,
(ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment or Loans, the amount of the
Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative
Agent) shall not (x) in the case of an assignment of a Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loan or Foreign Credit Instrument, be less than $5,000,000, and (y) in the case of an assignment of
a Term Loan Commitment or a Term Loan, be less than $1,000,000, unless the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, (iv) the assignee, if not already a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, (v) no assignment of Global Revolving Commitments or Global Revolving Loans may be made to an assignee that cannot make Loans in each of
the Qualified Global Currencies (other than Canadian dollars), (vi) no assignment of Canadian Commitments or Canadian Dollar Loans may be made to an assignee that cannot make Loans in each of
the Qualified Global Currencies and (vii) no assignment of Foreign Trade Commitments or Foreign Credit Instruments (except to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate) may be made without the prior
written consent of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent; and provided further that any consent of any Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall
not be required if an Event of Default under paragraph (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing. Any such assignment need not be ratable as among
the Facilities. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning
Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 9.3). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes
of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section. 

        (c)   The
Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Parent Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each
Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans (whether or not
evidenced by a promissory note), 

101

 

LC
Disbursements and Foreign Credit Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive, and each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Parent Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and
from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

        (d)   Upon
its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed Administrative Questionnaire
(unless the assignee is already a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by
paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be
effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a promissory note
shall be registered as to both principal and interest on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the promissory note evidencing such loan, accompanied by a duly
executed Assignment and Acceptance, and thereupon one or more new promissory notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee and the old promissory notes shall
be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Parent Borrower marked "cancelled". 

        (e)   Any
Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a
"Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the
Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain
solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. In no event shall any Participant under any such participation have any right to approve any
amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the
principal of, or interest (or premium, if any) on, the Loans or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone the date of the final maturity of the Loans, in each case to the extent subject to such
participation. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19 to the same extent as if it
were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, provided that, in the case of
Section 2.19, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 9.8 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.20(c) as though it were a Lender. 

        (f)    A
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.17 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with
respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Parent Borrower's prior written consent. 

        Any
Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without
limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest;  provided that any
foreclosure or similar action by such pledgee or assignee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 9.4 concerning
assignments; and provided, further that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall
release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party 

102

 

hereto.
In the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, such Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, assign or pledge a security interest in
all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and/or pledge all or any portion of any instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement to any trustee for, or any other
representative of, holders of obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities; provided that any
foreclosure or similar action by such trustee or representative shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 9.4 concerning assignments. 

        SECTION
9.5.    Survival.    All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the
Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the
other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit and Foreign Credit Instruments, regardless of
any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect
representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest (or premium, if any) on any
Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit or Foreign Credit Instrument is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not
expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 9.3 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, the Foreign Credit Instruments or the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any
provision hereof. 

        SECTION
9.6.    Counterparts; Integration.    This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Document and any
separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all
previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto (including the
Lenders) and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. 

        SECTION
9.7.    Severability.    Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

        SECTION
9.8.    Right of Setoff.    Upon any amount becoming due and payable by any Borrower hereunder (whether at the
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and
apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the
account of a Borrower against any of and all the obligations of a Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have
made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights
of setoff) which such Lender may have. 

103

 

        SECTION
9.9.    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.    (a) This Agreement shall be
construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 

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

        (c)   Each
party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, (i) any objection which it
may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in
paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court and (iii) any right it may have to claim
or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 

        (d)   Each
party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.1. In addition, each Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower agrees that service of process may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Parent Borrower
at its address for notices in Section 9.1. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner
permitted by law. 

        SECTION
9.10.    Acknowledgements.    Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that: 

        (a)   it
has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; 

        (b)   neither
the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor
and creditor; and 

        (c)   no
joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the
Borrowers and the Lenders. 

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

        SECTION
9.12.    Confidentiality.    Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Related Parties, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being
understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential 

104

 

nature
of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority or rating agency, (c) to the extent required
by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or
any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement,
(g) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in Hedging Agreements or other swap agreements relating to this Agreement or such counterparty's professional advisor, (h) with the
consent of the Parent Borrower, and (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available
to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, "Information" means all information received from any
Borrower relating to a Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such
Borrower; provided that such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the
confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the
confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

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

        SECTION
9.14.    Release of Collateral.    (a) On the first date (the "Release
Date") on which the outstanding Indebtedness under this Agreement is rated "Baa3" or better by Moody's and "BBB-" or better by S&P, so long as no Event of Default
exists on such date, all Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document, all without delivery of any instrument or
performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Loan Parties. At the request and sole expense of any Loan Party following any such release, the Collateral
Agent shall deliver to such Loan Party any Collateral held by the
Collateral Agent under any Security Document, and execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such release. 

        (b)   If
any of the Collateral shall be Disposed of by any Loan Party in a transaction permitted by this Agreement, then the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole
expense of such Loan Party, shall execute and deliver to such Loan Party all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created by the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document on such Collateral. At the request and sole expense of the Parent Borrower, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document in the event that such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Wholly Owned Subsidiary pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted by
this Agreement and if, as 

105

 

a
result of such transaction, the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries own less than 75% of the outstanding voting Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor. In addition, at the request and sole
expense of the Parent Borrower, not more than twice during the term of this Agreement, a Subsidiary Guarantor and the Subsidiaries of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from their respective
obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document in the event that a portion of the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor is Disposed of in a transaction
expressly permitted by Section 6.6(d) (but which does not satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence), provided that the aggregate
Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed period of four consecutive fiscal quarters for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.1 (in each case
determined at the time of such transaction) that is attributable to the Subsidiaries released from their obligations hereunder pursuant to this sentence shall not exceed $40,000,000. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event shall any Subsidiary be released from its obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Security Document, in the event that such Subsidiary is a
guarantor of any other Indebtedness of any Loan Party. 

        (c)   At
such time as the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations, the Foreign Credit Reimbursement Obligations and the other Obligations shall have been paid in full, the
Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit or Foreign Credit Instruments shall be outstanding (or shall have been fully cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent
with the terms of Section 2.5(j) or 2.6(m)(v), as applicable), the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security Document,
and each Security Document and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party thereunder shall terminate, all without
delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Loan Parties. At the request and sole expense of any Loan Party following any
such termination, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to such Loan Party any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent under any Security Document, and execute and deliver to such Loan Party such
documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. 

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

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

106

 

judgment
or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date. 

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

        SECTION
9.16.    USA Patriot Act Notice.    Each Lender hereby notifies each Borrower that, pursuant to the
requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "Act")
and other applicable foreign Requirements of Law, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each
Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Act or such other Requirements of Law, as applicable. 

        IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

        2.     The

connection with the Credit Agreement or with respect to the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any

[FORM OF]
  LEGAL OPINION OF THE PARENT BORROWER    
    

EXHIBIT D-3 

 
 

MATTERS TO BE COVERED BY
  FOREIGN SUBSIDIARY OPINIONS    
    

        1.     The
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of                        (the
"Jurisdiction"). 

        2.     The
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower has the power and authority, and the legal right to execute and deliver the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, to perform its obligations
under the Credit Agreement and to borrow under the Credit Agreement. The Foreign Subsidiary Borrower has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the performance of its obligations as a
"Foreign Subsidiary Borrower" under the Credit Agreement and to authorize the execution and delivery of the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement and the performance of the Credit Agreement. 

        3.     Except
for consents, authorizations, approvals, notices and filings described on an attached schedule, all of which have been obtained, made or waived and are in full
force and effect, no consent or authorization of, approval by, notice to, filing with or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the borrowings by the
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Credit Agreement or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement and of the Credit Agreement. 

        4.     The
Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. 

        5.     The
execution and delivery of the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement by the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the performance of its obligations thereunder and under the Credit
Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby and by the Credit Agreement, the compliance by the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower with any of the provisions of the Credit Agreement,
the borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the use of proceeds thereof, all as provided therein, (a) will not violate, or constitute a default under, any Requirement of Law applicable to the
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and (b) will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of its properties or revenues pursuant to any such Requirement of Law. 

        6.     There
are no taxes imposed by the Jurisdiction (a) on or by virtue of the execution, delivery or enforcement of the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or enforcement
or performance of the Credit Agreement or (b) on any payment to be made by the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement. 

        7.     The
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is subject to civil and commercial law with respect to its obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the execution and delivery of the
Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement and the performance by the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower of the Credit Agreement constitute and will constitute private and commercial acts and not public or governmental
acts. Neither the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower nor any of its property, whether or not held for its own account, has any immunity (sovereign or similar immunity) from any suit or proceeding, from
jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment
or similar immunity) under the laws of the Jurisdiction in respect of its obligations under the Credit Agreement. 

        8.     Under
the laws of the Jurisdiction, the (a) submission to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the
United States of America for the Southern District of New York and any appellate courts from any thereof, (b) waiver of any objection to the venue of a proceeding in a New York court
[and (c) appointment of [                        ], as process agent,] are irrevocably binding on the Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower. 

        9.     To
ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence of the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement and the Credit Agreement, it is not necessary that the
Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any other document be filed, 

registered
or recorded with, or executed or notarized before, any court of other authority of the Jurisdiction or that any registration charge or stamp or similar tax be paid on or in respect of the
Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document. 

        10.   Each
of the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement and the Credit Agreement is in proper legal form under the laws of the Jurisdiction for the enforcement thereof against the
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the laws of the Jurisdiction. 

        11.   In
any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Credit Agreement in any court in the Jurisdiction, such court would recognize and give effect to the choice
of law provisions in the Credit Agreement wherein the parties thereto agree that the Credit Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of
New York. 

        12.   It
is not necessary under the laws of the Jurisdiction (a) in order to enable the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or any of them to enforce their respective
rights under the Credit Agreement or (b) by reason of the execution of the Credit Agreement or the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or the performance of the Credit Agreement that any of them
should be licensed, qualified or entitled to carry on business in the Jurisdiction. 

        13.   Neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of the Lenders will be deemed to be resident, domiciled, carrying on business or subject to taxation in the Jurisdiction merely
by reason of the execution of the Credit Agreement or the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or the performance or enforcement of any thereof. The performance by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
or any of them of any action required or permitted under the Credit Agreement will not violate any law or regulation, or be contrary to the public policy, of the Jurisdiction. 

        14.   If
any judgment of a competent court outside the Jurisdiction were rendered against the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in connection with any action arising out of or
relating to the Credit Agreement, such judgment would be recognized and could be sued upon in the courts of the Jurisdiction, and such courts would grant a judgment which would be enforceable against
the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in the Jurisdiction without any retrial unless it is shown that (a) the foreign court did not have jurisdiction in accordance with its jurisdictional rules,
(b) the party against whom the judgment of such foreign court was obtained had no notice of the proceedings or (c) the judgment of such foreign court was obtained through collusion or
fraud or was based upon clear mistake of fact or law.
