A. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.
B. The Borrowers have requested that the Credit Agreement be amended to provide for a new tranche of term loans thereunder (the “New U.S. Term Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of $4,029,725,000, the proceeds of which will be used to refinance all currently outstanding U.S. Term Loans and to redeem or repurchase $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s floating rate senior unsecured notes due 2013 (the “Floating Rate Notes”). Except as otherwise provided herein, the New U.S. Term Loans will have the same terms as the U.S. Term Loans currently outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
C. The Borrowers have further requested that the Credit Agreement be amended to provide for (i) the refinancing of the U.K. Term Loans currently outstanding under the Credit Agreement with a new tranche of term loans thereunder (the “New U.K. Term Loans”) in an equal aggregate principal amount which, except as otherwise provided herein, will have the same terms as such existing U.K. Term Loans and (ii) the refinancing of the Euro Term Loans currently outstanding under the Credit Agreement with a new tranche of term loans thereunder (the “New Euro Term Loans” and, together with the New U.K. Term Loans and the New U.S. Term Loans, the “New Term Loans”) in an equal aggregate principal amount which, except as otherwise provided herein, will have the same terms as such existing Euro Term Loans.
D. Each existing Term Lender (collectively, the “Existing Term Lenders”) that executes and delivers a signature page to this Amendment (a “Lender Addendum”) and agrees to convert its outstanding Term Loans into New Term Loans (collectively, the “Converting Term Lenders”) will be deemed (i) to have agreed to the terms of this Amendment, (ii) to have agreed to have converted its existing U.S. Term Loans, U.K. Term Loans and/or Euro Term Loans (the “Existing U.S. Term Loans”, “Existing U.K. Term Loans” and “Existing Euro Term Loans”, as the case may be, and collectively, the “Existing Term Loans”) outstanding on the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below) into New U.S. Term Loans, New U.K. Term Loans and/or New Euro Term Loans, as the case may be, in a principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Existing Term Loans of each such Class so converted, and (iii) upon the Amendment Effective Date, to have converted such amount of its Existing Term Loans of each such Class as is determined by JPMorgan Securities Inc. (“JPMorgan”) and notified to such
Converting Term Lender into New Term Loans of the corresponding Class in an equal principal amount.
E. Each Person (other than a Converting Term Lender in its capacity as such) that executes and delivers a Lender Addendum and agrees to make New Term Loans of any Class (collectively, the “Additional Term Lenders”), including any Existing Term Lender that notifies JPMorgan that it does not desire to be a Converting Term Lender but is willing to undertake a commitment to make New Term Loans of any Class, will be deemed to have (i) agreed to the terms of this Amendment and (ii) committed to make and fund New Term Loans of such Class to the applicable Borrower on the Amendment Effective Date (the “Additional U.S. Term Loans”, and collectively with the additional U.K. Term Loans and additional Euro Term Loans, the “Additional Term Loans”), in such amount (not in excess of any such commitment) as is determined by JPMorgan and notified to such Additional Term Lender. The proceeds of the Additional Term Loans of each such Class will be used by the applicable Borrower to repay in full the outstanding principal amount of the Existing Term Loans of the corresponding Class that are not converted into New Term Loans by Converting Lenders and, in the case of the Additional U.S. Term Loans in an amount in excess of the Existing U.S. Term Loans, to redeem or repurchase, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Amendment Effective Date, all of the Floating Rate Notes and, pending such redemption or repurchase, for general corporate purposes (including investments in Cash Equivalents and repayment of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans).
F. Each Lender other than a New Term Lender (as defined below), including any Revolving Credit Lender that executes and delivers a Lender Addendum solely in its capacity as a Revolving Credit Lender or any Existing Term Lender that executes and delivers a Lender Addendum solely in its capacity as an Existing Term Lender and not as a New Term Lender, will be deemed to have agreed to the terms of this Amendment but will not be deemed thereby to have agreed to convert its Existing Term Loans into New Term Loans or to have made any commitment to make and fund New Term Loans.
G. The Borrowers have further requested that the Credit Agreement be amended to, among other things, increase the general Indebtedness basket from $500,000,000 to $750,000,000, permit an additional $250,000,000 of Indebtedness to be outstanding under the Receivables Facility without requiring a mandatory prepayment of the New Term Loans, increase and reset the general baskets for Investments in, and Permitted Acquisitions of, Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties, affect certain changes to the public accountant’s fiscal year-end certification requirement and modify the Applicable Rate and Maturity Date in respect of the New Term Loans.
H. The Converting Term Lenders and the Additional Term Lenders (collectively, the “New Term Lenders”) are severally willing to convert their Existing Term Loans into New Term Loans and/or to make and fund New Term Loans, as the case may be, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment.
