(b) Upon the effectiveness of the Revolving Commitment Increase, each Initial Revolving Lender immediately prior to the Revolving Commitment Increase will automatically and without further action be deemed to have assigned to each Incremental Revolving Lender, and each such Incremental Revolving Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Initial Revolving Lender’s participations in the outstanding LC Exposure and Swingline Exposure under the Credit Agreement such that, after giving effect to the Revolving Commitment Increase and each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding LC Exposure and Swingline Exposure under the Credit Agreement held by each Initial Revolving Lender (including each such Incremental Revolving Lender) will equal such

- 94 -

(b)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining compliance with any test contained in this Agreement, the Senior Secured First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the Interest Coverage Ratio and any other financial ratio or test shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, including to give effect to all Specified Transactions that have been made during the applicable period of measurement or subsequent to such period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation is made, as applicable, and in making any determination on a Pro Forma Basis, such calculations shall be made in good faith by a Financial Officer and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 1.05.       Effectuation of Transactions. All references herein to Holdings, each Co-Borrower and the other Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be references to such Persons, and all the representations and warranties of each of Holdings, each Co-Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed made, in each case, after giving effect to the Transactions to occur on the Effective Date, unless the context otherwise requires.

Section 1.06.       Limited Condition Transactions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, in connection with any action being taken solely in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of (a) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement that requires the calculation of the Senior Secured First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio or the Interest Coverage Ratio, (b) determining whether a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (c) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA or by reference to the Available Amount or the Available Equity Amount) (but in any event not in connection with determining whether the conditions precedent to Borrowing under Section 4.02 have been satisfied), in each case at the option of Holdings (Holdings’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), with such option to be exercised on or prior to the date of execution of the definitive agreements with respect to such Limited Condition Transaction, the date of determination of whether any such action shall be permitted hereunder shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the “LCT Test Date”) and if, after such ratios and other provisions are measured on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and the other Specified Transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they occurred at the beginning of the applicable Test Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date, Holdings or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratios and provisions, such ratios and provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any of such ratios or baskets are exceeded (or, with respect to the Interest Coverage Ratio, not reached) as a result of fluctuations in such ratio or basket (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries or fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the target of any Limited Condition Transaction) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Transaction, such ratios and other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded (or, with respect to the Interest Coverage Ratio, not reached) as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder and (y) such ratios and other provisions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or related Specified

- 95 -

Transactions. If a Co-Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to any other Specified Transaction on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are terminated or expire without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other Specified Transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated until such time as the applicable Limited Condition Transaction has actually closed or the definitive agreements with respect thereto have been terminated or expire.

Section 1.07.       Certain Determinations. (a) For purposes of determining compliance with any of the covenants set forth in Article V or Article VI (including in connection with any Incremental Facility) at any time (whether at the time of incurrence or thereafter), any Lien, Investment, Indebtedness, Restricted Payment, Disposition or Affiliate transaction meets the criteria of one, or more than one, of the categories permitted pursuant to Article V or Article VI (including in connection with any Incremental Facility), Holdings (i) shall in its sole discretion determine under which category such Lien (other than Liens securing the Secured Obligations), Investment, Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness incurred under the Loan Documents), Disposition, Restricted Payment or Affiliate transaction (or, in each case, any portion there) is permitted and (ii) solely with respect to any Lien or Indebtedness, shall be permitted, in its sole discretion, to make any redetermination and/or to divide, classify or reclassify under which category or categories any such Lien or Indebtedness is permitted from time to time as it may determine and without notice to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, so long as at the time of such redesignation Holdings or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary would be permitted to incur such Lien or Indebtedness under such category or categories, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, if the applicable date for meeting any requirement hereunder or under any other Loan Document falls on a day that is not a Business Day, compliance with such requirement shall not be required until noon on the first Business Day following such applicable date.

(b)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, any Senior Secured First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, and/or Interest Coverage Ratio) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with any such financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts (and any cash proceeds thereof) shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence Based Amounts in connection with such substantially concurrent incurrence, except that incurrences of Indebtedness and Liens constituting Fixed Amounts shall be taken into account for purposes of Incurrence Based Amounts other than Incurrence Based Amounts contained in Section 6.01 or Section 6.02.

Section 1.08.       Additional Alternative Currencies. (a) Each Co-Borrower may from time to time request that EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans be made and/or

- 96 -

Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than dollars or those specifically listed in clauses (a) or (b) of the definition of “Alternative Currency.”. In the case of any such request with respect to the making of EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and all of the Revolving Lenders, provided that the applicable Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent and all of the Revolving Lenders shall agree on the reference rate for Loans in such currency and this Agreement shall be amended in accordance with Section 9.02(g) in respect of the applicable Alternative Currency. In the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and each applicable Issuing Bank.

(b)       Any request pursuant to clause (a) above shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), ten Business Days prior to the date of the desired Revolving Borrowing or issuance of Letters of Credit (or such other time or date as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, each applicable Issuing Bank, in its or their sole discretion). In the case of any such request pertaining to EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof. In the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Bank thereof. Each Revolving Lender (in the case of any such request pertaining to EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans) or each applicable Issuing Bank (in the case of a request pertaining to Letters of Credit) shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), two Business Days after its receipt of such request, as to whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, in such requested currency.

(c)       Any failure by a Revolving Lender or an Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to respond to a request pursuant to clause (a) above within the time period specified in the last sentence of clause (b) above shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Revolving Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to permit EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans to be made or Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and all the Revolving Lenders consent to making EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify each Co-Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Borrowings of EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans. If the Administrative Agent and each applicable Issuing Bank consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify each Co-Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances by such Issuing Bank. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain requisite consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.08, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify each Co-Borrower, and such currency shall not so become an Alternative Currency hereunder.

Section 1.09.       Currency Equivalents Generally. (a) The Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall determine the applicable rates of exchange (specified in the definition of “Dollar Equivalent”) as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating the Dollar Equivalent of Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder that are denominated in an Alternative Currency. Such rates of exchange shall become effective as of such

- 97 -

Revaluation Date and shall be the rates of exchange employed in converting amounts for such purpose between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date.

(b)       For purposes of any determination under Article V, Article VI (other than Section 6.11 and the calculation of compliance with any financial ratio for purposes of taking any action hereunder) or Article VII with respect to the amount of any Indebtedness, Lien, Restricted Payment, Investment, Disposition, Affiliate transaction or other transaction, event or circumstance, or any determination under any other provision of this Agreement (any of the foregoing, a “specified transaction”) in a currency other than dollars, (i) the equivalent amount in dollars of a specified transaction in a currency other than dollars shall be calculated based on the rate of exchange displayed by ICE Data Services (or, if such service ceases to be available, the rate of exchange determined by the Administrative Agent using any method of determination it reasonably deems appropriate and that is agreed to by Holdings) for such foreign currency, as in effect at 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the date of such specified transaction (which, in the case of any Restricted Payment, shall be deemed to be the date of the declaration thereof and, in the case of the incurrence of Indebtedness, shall be deemed to be on the date first committed); provided that if any Indebtedness is incurred (and, if applicable, associated Lien granted) to refinance or replace other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than dollars, and the relevant refinancing or replacement would cause the applicable dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing or replacement, such dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing or replacement Indebtedness (and, if applicable, associated Lien granted) does not exceed an amount sufficient to repay the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced or replaced, except by an amount equal to (x) unpaid accrued interest and premiums (including premiums) thereon plus other reasonable and customary fees and expenses (including upfront fees and original issue discount) incurred in connection with such refinancing or replacement, (y) any existing commitments unutilized thereunder and (z) additional amounts permitted to be incurred under Section 6.01 and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of a change in the rate of currency exchange occurring after the time of any specified transaction so long as such specified transaction was permitted at the time incurred, made, acquired, committed, entered or declared as set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i). For purposes of Section 6.11 and the calculation of compliance with any financial ratio for purposes of taking any action hereunder (including for purposes of calculating compliance with the Incremental Cap), on any relevant date of determination, amounts denominated in currencies other than dollars shall be translated into dollars at the applicable currency exchange rate used in preparing the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) (or, prior to the first such delivery, the financial statements referred to in Section 3.04), as applicable, for the relevant Test Period and will, with respect to any Indebtedness, reflect the currency translation effects, determined in accordance with GAAP, of any Swap Agreement permitted hereunder in respect of currency exchange risks with respect to the applicable currency in effect on the date of determination for the dollar equivalent amount of such Indebtedness.

Section 1.10.       Interest Rates; LIBORBenchmark Notification. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in dollars or an Alternative Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate

- 98 -

benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-In Election, Section 2.14(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.14(d), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate”, “Term SOFR” or “EURIBOR Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.14(b), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.14(c)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate, Term SOFR or EURIBOR Rate, as applicable, or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate, Term SOFR or EURIBOR Rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

(c)       At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum; provided that a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing that results from a continuation of an outstanding Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to such outstanding Borrowing. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, an ABR Revolving Borrowing (including a Borrowing of Swingline Loans) may be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the entire unused balance of the aggregate Revolving Commitments of the applicable Class (and/or the Swingline Commitments, as applicable) or that is required to finance the reimbursement of a LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(f).

Section 2.03.       Requests for Borrowings.

(viii)     that as of the date of such Borrowing, with respect to any Borrowing after the Effective Date, the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(a) and 4.02(b) are satisfied.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified as to any Borrowing, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing, then the applicable Co-Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. If no currency is specified with respect to any Borrowing of Initial Revolving Loans, then the requested Borrowing shall be denominated in dollars. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the applicable Class of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, a Co-Borrower may borrow, prepay and re-borrow Swingline Loans.

(b)       To request a Swingline Loan, the applicable Co-Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender of such request by telephone (confirmed in writing) or facsimile (confirmed by telephone), not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time (or, for a request for a Swingline Loan made by Luxembourg Holdco or Swissco, 10:00 a.m., London time), on the day of such proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Swingline Loan and (x) if the funds are not to be credited to a general deposit account of such Co-Borrower maintained with the Swingline Lender because such Co-Borrower is unable to maintain a general deposit account with the Swingline Lender under applicable Requirements of Law, the location and number of such Co-Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with Section 2.06, or (y) in the case of any Swingline Loan requested to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(f), the identity of the Issuing Bank that made such LC Disbursement. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to such Co-Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit accounts of such Co-Borrower maintained with the Swingline Lender for the applicable Swingline Loan (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(f), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank) by 3:00 p.m., Local Time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. No Swingline Lender shall be under any obligation to make a Swingline Loan if any Revolving Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, if after giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iv), any Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure remains outstanding.

(c)       The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation

- 102 -

under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (with references to 12:00 noon, New York City time, in such Section being deemed to be references to 3:00 p.m., New York City time) (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders pursuant to this paragraph), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Co-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 applicable Co-Borrower (or other Person on behalf of such Co-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 by the Swingline Lender to the Administrative Agent, and any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and thereafter to such Co-Borrower, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Co-Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the applicable Co-Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(d)       The Co-Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, designate as additional Swingline Lenders one or more Revolving Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Revolving Lender of an appointment as a Swingline Lender hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Co-Borrowers, executed by the Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such designated Swingline Lender, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Revolving Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement and (ii) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to include such Revolving Lender in its capacity as a lender of Swingline Loans hereunder.

(e)       The Co-Borrowers may terminate the appointment of any Swingline Lender as a “Swingline Lender” hereunder by providing a written notice thereof to such Swingline Lender, with a copy to the Administrative Agent. Any such termination shall become effective upon the earlier of (i) such Swingline Lender’s acknowledging receipt of such notice and (ii) the fifth Business Day following the date of the delivery thereof; provided that no such termination shall become effective until and unless the Swingline Exposure of such Swingline Lender shall have been reduced to zero. Notwithstanding the effectiveness of any such termination, the terminated Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to such termination, but shall not make any additional Swingline Loans.

Section 2.05.       Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein (including Section 2.22), each Issuing Bank agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Initial Revolving Lenders and each Co-Borrower set forth in this Section 2.05 and elsewhere in the Loan Documents, to issue Letters of Credit denominated in dollars or any

- 103 -

Alternative Currency for the applicable Co-Borrower’s own account (or for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary of Holdings so long as Holdings or the applicable Co-Borrower is an obligor in respect of all Loan Document Obligations arising under or in respect of such Letter of Credit), in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, which shall reflect the standard operating procedures of such Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the period from the Effective Date until the date that is the fifth Business Day prior to the Initial Revolving Maturity Date. 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 or bank guarantee application or other agreement submitted by any Co-Borrower to, or entered into by any Co-Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Each reference herein to the “applicable Co-Borrower” in respect of any Letter of Credit (whether issued for a Co-Borrower’s account or for the account of any Subsidiary of Holdings) shall mean (i) in the case of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a CFC, Finance, (ii) in the case of any Letter of Credit issued at the request of Swissco, Swissco and (iii) in the case of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary other than Swissco that is a CFC, Luxembourg Holdco. Upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 on the Effective Date, each Existing Letter of Credit shall, automatically and without any action on the part of any Person, be deemed, for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder for the account of the applicable Co-Borrower.

(b)       Issuance, Amendment, Renewal or 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 applicable Co-Borrower shall deliver in writing by hand delivery or facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the recipient) to the applicable Issuing Bank (except that an Issuing Bank in respect of Existing Letters of Credit shall not issue additional Letters of Credit and, unless agreed by it, shall not be required to amend, renew or extend an Existing Letter of Credit) and the Administrative Agent at the Applicable Office (at least five Business Days before the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (or, in the case of any such request to be made on the Effective Date, one Business Day) or such shorter period as the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent may agree) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (d) of this Section 2.05), the amount and currency of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend or extend, as the case may be, such Letter of Credit. Each such notice shall be in the form of Exhibit U, appropriately completed (each, a “Letter of Credit Request”). If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the applicable Co-Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit, together with such other documents that may be required by the applicable Issuing Bank in connection with such letter of credit application. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit the applicable Co-Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the aggregate Initial Revolving Exposure of any Initial Revolving Lender shall not exceed the aggregate Initial Revolving Commitments of such Initial

- 104 -

Revolving Lender, (ii) the aggregate Initial Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Initial Revolving Commitments, (iii) the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit, and (iv) unless otherwise agreed by such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion, the Applicable Fronting Exposure of such Issuing Bank (or of such Issuing Bank’s applicable Affiliate) shall not exceed the LC Commitment of such Issuing Bank. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall any Issuing Bank be required to issue a Letter of Credit if such issuance would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

(c)       Notice. Each Issuing Bank agrees that it shall not permit any issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit to occur unless it shall have given to the Administrative Agent written notice thereof required under paragraph (m) of this Section 2.05.

(d)       Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date that is one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any extension thereof, the date to which it has been extended (not in excess of one year from the last applicable expiry date)) and (ii) the date that is the fifth Business Day prior to the Initial Revolving Maturity Date; provided that if such expiry date is not a Business Day, such Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the next succeeding Business Day; provided further that any Letter of Credit may, upon the request of any Co-Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed or extended automatically for additional consecutive periods of one year or less (but not beyond the date that is the fifth Business Day prior to the Initial Revolving Maturity Date) unless the applicable Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof within the time period specified in such Letter of Credit or, if no such time period is specified, at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date, that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed or extended; provided further that a Letter of Credit shall not be required to expire on such fifth Business Day prior to the Initial Revolving Maturity Date if such Letter of Credit is cash collateralized or backstopped in an amount, by an institution and otherwise pursuant to arrangements, in each case reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Initial Revolving Maturity Date occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit as a result of the last proviso in the foregoing sentence, then upon the taking of actions described in such proviso with respect to such Letter of Credit, all participations in such Letter of Credit under the terminated Initial Revolving Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Initial Revolving Maturity Date.

(e)       Participations in Letters of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance of each 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 Issuing Bank that is the issuer thereof or the Lenders, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, and the applicable Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have sold, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving 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 Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Co-Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section 2.05, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to a Co-Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its acquisition

- 105 -

of 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 or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each payment required to be made by it under the preceding sentence shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(f)       Reimbursement of LC Disbursements. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Co-Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent, at the Applicable Office, an amount (in same day funds) equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that such Co-Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement (the “LC Reimbursement Date”), together with accrued interest or fees thereon in accordance with clause (i) of this Section 2.05. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) unless the applicable Co-Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date such LC Disbursement is made that such Co-Borrower intends to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of the LC Disbursement (including any accrued interest or fees thereon) with funds other than the proceeds of Revolving Loans, such Co-Borrower shall be deemed to have given a timely Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent requesting Revolving Lenders to make Revolving Loans in dollars that are ABR Revolving Loans on the LC Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement (together with any accrued interest or fees thereon) and (ii) subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions specified in Section 4.02, Revolving Lenders shall, on the LC Reimbursement Date, make Revolving Loans in dollars that are ABR Revolving Loans in an amount equal to their Applicable Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement (together with any accrued interest or fees thereon), the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of such LC Disbursement (together with any accrued interest or fees thereon); provided that if for any reason proceeds of Revolving Loans are not received by the applicable Issuing Bank on the LC Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement (together with any accrued interest or fees thereon), such Co-Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank, on demand, in an amount in same day funds equal to the excess of such LC Disbursement (together with any accrued interest or fees thereon) over the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loans, if any, which are so received. The Revolving Loans made pursuant to this paragraph (f) shall be made without regard to the Borrowing Minimum.

(g)       Obligations Absolute. A Co-Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section 2.05 is 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, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any term or provision herein or therein, (ii) any exchange, change, waiver or release of any Collateral for, or any other Person’s guarantee of or other liability for, any of the Secured Obligations, (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which such Co-Borrower or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other Person or, in the case

- 106 -

of a Lender, against such Co-Borrower, whether in connection herewith, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between such Co-Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured), (iv) 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, (v) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit (provided that such Co-Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse such LC Disbursements unless payment is made against presentation of a draft or other document that at least substantially complies with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (vi) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Holdings or any of its subsidiaries; (vii) any breach hereof or any other Loan Document by any party hereto or thereto, (viii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or (ix) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, such Co-Borrower’s obligations hereunder. As between the applicable Co-Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank, such Co-Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and the proceeds thereof, by the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit or any assignees or transferees thereof. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility for: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged other than to confirm such documents comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) its honor of any presentation under a Letter of Credit that appears on its face to substantially comply with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit; (v) 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); (vi) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vii) any loss or delay in the transmission of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit; (viii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (ix) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, including any act by a Governmental Authority and fluctuation in currency exchange rates. None of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the applicable Issuing Bank’s rights or powers hereunder or place such Issuing Bank under any liability to any Co-Borrower or any other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the above shall be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the applicable Co-Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential, incidental, exemplary or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by such Co-Borrower to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law) suffered by such Co-Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s gross

- 107 -

negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable judgment) when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank 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 (notwithstanding the appearance of substantial compliance) such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and any such acceptance or refusal shall be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(h)       Disbursement Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof (and, in any event, within the period, if any, stipulated by the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit), examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. After such demand for payment, each such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Co-Borrower by telephone (confirmed in writing by hand delivery or facsimile) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve such Co-Borrower of its obligations to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section 2.05.

(i)       Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Co-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 Co-Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, (i) in respect of LC Disbursements denominated in dollars, at the rate per annum then applicable to Initial Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans (or, to the extent of the participation in such LC Disbursement by any Revolving Lender of another Class, the rate per annum then applicable to the Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans of such other Class) and (ii) in the case of a LC Disbursement denominated in an Alternative Currency, (A) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed on or before the date such LC Disbursement is required to be reimbursed under paragraph (f) of this Section 2.05, a rate per annum determined by the applicable Issuing Bank (which determination will be conclusive absent manifest error) to represent its cost of funds plus the Applicable Rate used to determine interest applicable to Initial Revolving Loans that are EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans (or, to the extent of the participation in such LC Disbursement by any Revolving Lender of another Class, the Applicable Rate used to determine interest applicable to the Revolving Loans that are EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans of such other Class) (which interest shall be payable in such currency) and (B) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed after the date such LC Disbursement is required to be reimbursed under paragraph (f) of this Section 2.05, the rate per annum then applicable to Initial Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans (or, to the extent of the participation in such LC Disbursement by any Revolving Lender of another Class, the rate per annum then applicable to the Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans of such other Class) (which interest shall be payable in dollars); provided that, if such Co-Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section 2.05, then Section 2.13(c) shall

- 108 -

apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which such Co-Borrower reimburses the applicable LC Disbursement in full.

(j)       Cash Collateralization of Letters of Credit. If (i) effective immediately, without demand or other notice of any kind, as of any expiration date of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, (ii) effective immediately, without demand or other notice of any kind, as of the occurrence of any Event of Default under paragraph (h) or (i) of Section 7.01, or (iii) any Event of Default under paragraph (a) or (b) of Section 7.01 shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day on which the applicable Co-Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing more than 50% of the aggregate LC Exposure of all Revolving Lenders) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, such Co-Borrower shall deposit in an account with a depositary bank that is a Lender reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Secured Parties (or in the case of any Letters of Credit that expire later than the fifth Business Day prior to the Initial Revolving Maturity Date and are cash collateralized on or after the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Bank), an amount of cash in dollars or an Alternative Currency equal to the portions of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit, as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Each Co-Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(c). Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the applicable Co-Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, if any Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure remains outstanding (after giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iv)), then promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, such Co-Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent cash collateral in an amount sufficient to cover such Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). The Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) 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 in Permitted Investments and at the applicable Co-Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent first to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements for which they have not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, the balance shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of such Co-Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing more than 50% of the aggregate LC Exposure of all the Revolving Lenders), such balance shall be applied to satisfy other obligations of each Co-Borrower under this Agreement. If a Co-Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of

- 109 -

Default or the existence of a Defaulting Lender, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Co-Borrower within three Business Days of request for such return after all Events of Default have been cured or waived or after the termination of Defaulting Lender status, as applicable. If a Co-Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(c), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Co-Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, such Co-Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.11(c) and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(k)       Designation of Additional Issuing Banks. The Co-Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, designate as additional Issuing Banks one or more Revolving Lenders that agree in writing to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Revolving Lender of an appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Co-Borrowers, executed by each Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such designated Revolving Lender and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Revolving Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such Revolving Lender in its capacity as an issuer of Letters of Credit hereunder.

(l)       Resignation or Termination of an Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Co-Borrowers. The Co-Borrowers may terminate the appointment of any Issuing Bank as an “Issuing Bank” hereunder by providing a written notice thereof to such Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent. Any such termination shall become effective upon the earlier of (i) such Issuing Bank’s acknowledging receipt of such notice and (ii) the fifth Business Day following the date of the delivery thereof; provided that no such termination shall become effective until and unless the LC Exposure attributable to all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (or its Affiliates) shall have been reduced to zero. At the time any such resignation or termination shall become effective, the applicable Co-Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued attributable to it for the account of the resigning or terminated Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). Notwithstanding the effectiveness of any such resignation or termination, the resigning or terminated Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or termination, but shall not (A) be required (and shall be discharged from its obligations) to issue any additional Letters of Credit or extend or increase the amount of Letters of Credit then outstanding, without affecting its rights and obligations with respect to Letters of Credit previously issued by it, or (B) be deemed an Issuing Bank for any other purpose.

(m)       Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section 2.05, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) within five Business Days following the time that such Issuing Bank issues,

- 110 -

amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and face amount and the currency of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date, amount and currency of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which any Co-Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and amount and currency of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank; provided that no Issuing Bank shall have any liability hereunder to any Person for any failure to deliver the reports contemplated by this paragraph (m) of this Section 2.05.

(n)       Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and Co-Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued or when it is amended with the consent of the beneficiary thereof, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to the applicable Co-Borrower for, and the applicable Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against the applicable Co-Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the applicable Issuing Bank required or permitted under any law, order or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the applicable law or any order of any Governmental Authority in a jurisdiction where the applicable Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade (BAFT), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.

Section 2.06.       Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon (and in the case of ABR Loans, 2:00 p.m.), Local Time, to the Applicable Account of the Administrative Agent at the Applicable Office most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable Co-Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Co-Borrower designated by such Co-Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of a LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.

(b)       Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received, at the Applicable Office, 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 2.06 and may, in reliance on such assumption and in its sole discretion, make available to the applicable Co-Borrower a corresponding amount. 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 agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent an

- 111 -

amount equal to such share on demand of the Administrative Agent. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon demand of the Administrative Agent therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Co-Borrower, and the applicable Co-Borrower agrees to pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing and the Administrative Agent shall return to such Borrower any amount (including interest) paid by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this paragraph. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or from the applicable Co-Borrower interest on such corresponding amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Co-Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, (A) in the case of Loans denominated in dollars, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (B) in the case of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, the rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be the cost of it to funding such amount (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) or (ii) in the case of such Co-Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.13. Any such payment by any Co-Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Co-Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(c)       The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and Revolving Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.03(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 9.03(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 9.03(c).

Section 2.07.       Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03 and, in the case of a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03. Thereafter, the applicable Co-Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07; provided, however, that in no event may a Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency be converted into an ABR Borrowing. A Co-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.

(b)       To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.07, the applicable Co-Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent at the Applicable Office of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Co-Borrower were requesting a 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 hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic transmission to the Administrative Agent at the Applicable office of a written Interest Election

- 112 -

Request signed by a Responsible Officer or authorized signatory (previously certified as such to the Administrative Agent) of each Co-Borrower.

(c)       Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.03:

(i)         the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(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 Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing; and

(iv)     if the resulting Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.”

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 each Co-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 Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be continued as a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(c)       Finance or the Co-Borrowers, as the case may be, shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section 2.08 at least one Business Day prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by Finance or the Co-Borrowers, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments of any Class delivered by any Co-Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or the occurrence of some other identifiable event or condition, in which case such notice may be revoked by such Co-Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date of termination) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class 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.

(b)       Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Co-Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(d)       The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.09 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 Co-Borrower to pay any amounts due by it hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the entries made pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 2.09, the accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.09 shall control.

(e)       Any Lender may request through the Administrative Agent that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the applicable Co-Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns).

- 117 -

Discounted Term Loan Prepayment (“Excluded Information”), (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such Discounted Term Loan Prepayment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information and (3) none of Holdings, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, any claims such Lender may have against Holdings, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information; provided further that any Term Loan that is prepaid will be automatically and irrevocably cancelled.

(B)        (1) Subject to the proviso to subsection (A) above, Finance may from time to time offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by providing the Auction Agent with three Business Days’ notice in the form of a Specified Discount Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such offer shall be made available, at the sole discretion of Finance, to each Term Lender and/or each Lender with respect to any Class of Term Loans on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such offer shall specify the aggregate principal amount offered to be prepaid (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Amount”) with respect to each applicable tranche, the tranche or tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the specific percentage discount to par (the “Specified Discount”) of such Term Loans to be prepaid (it being understood that different Specified Discounts and/or Specified Discount Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Term Loans and, in such an event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section), (III) the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof and (IV) each such offer shall remain outstanding through the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date.

(2)       Each relevant Term Lender receiving such offer shall notify the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date whether or not it agrees to accept a prepayment of any of its relevant then outstanding Term Loans at the Specified Discount and, if so (such accepting Term Lender, a “Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender”), the amount and the tranches of such Lender’s Term Loans to be prepaid at such offered discount. Each acceptance of a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by a Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender shall be irrevocable. Any Term Lender whose Specified Discount Prepayment Response is not received by the Auction Agent by the

- 118 -

Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept the applicable Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment.

(3)       If there is at least one Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender, Finance will make prepayment of outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this paragraph (B) to each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender in accordance with the respective outstanding amount and tranches of Term Loans specified in such Lender’s Specified Discount Prepayment Response given pursuant to subsection (2); provided that, if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of the applicable Class accepted for prepayment by all Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders exceeds the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount for the Term Loans of such Class, such prepayment shall be made pro-rata among the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts accepted to be prepaid by each such Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with Finance and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Specified Discount Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within three Business Days following the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) Finance of the respective Term Lenders’ responses to such offer, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, and the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Loans to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date and (III) each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender of the Specified Discount Proration, if any, and confirmation of the principal amount, tranche and Type of Loans of such Lender to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to Finance and Term Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to Finance shall be due and payable by Finance on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(C)        (1) Subject to the proviso to subsection (A) above, Finance may from time to time solicit Discount Range Prepayment Offers by providing the Auction Agent with three Business Days’ notice in the form of a Discount Range Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of Finance, to each Term Lender and/or each Lender with respect to any Class of Loans on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate principal amount of the relevant Term Loans (the “Discount Range Prepayment Amount”), the tranche or tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the maximum and minimum percentage discounts to par (the “Discount Range”) of the principal amount of such Term Loans with respect to each relevant tranche of Term Loans willing to be prepaid by Finance (it being understood that different Discount Ranges and/or Discount Range Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Term Loans and, in such an event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the

- 119 -

terms of this Section), (III) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof and (IV) each such solicitation by Finance shall remain outstanding through the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date.

Each relevant Term Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer shall be irrevocable and shall specify a discount to par within the Discount Range (the “Submitted Discount”) at which such Term Lender is willing to allow prepayment of any or all of its then outstanding Term Loans of the applicable tranche or tranches and the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Lender’s Term Loans (the “Submitted Amount”) such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Submitted Discount. Any Term Lender whose Discount Range Prepayment Offer is not received by the Auction Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par value within the Discount Range.

(2)       The Auction Agent shall review all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received on or before the applicable Discount Range Prepayment Response Date and shall determine (in consultation with Finance and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the Applicable Discount and Term Loans to be prepaid at such Applicable Discount in accordance with this subsection (C). Finance agrees to accept on the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received by the Auction Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, in the order from the Submitted Discount that is the largest discount to par to the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par, up to and including the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range (such Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range being referred to as the “Applicable Discount”) which yields a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lower of (I) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount and (II) the sum of all Submitted Amounts. Each Lender that has submitted a Discount Range Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at a discount to par that is larger than or equal to the Applicable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Submitted Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to the following subsection (3)) at the Applicable Discount (each such Lender, a “Participating Lender”).

(3)       If there is at least one Participating Lender, Finance will prepay the respective outstanding Term Loans of each Participating Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the Submitted

- 120 -

Amount by all Participating Lenders offered at a discount to par greater than the Applicable Discount exceeds the Discount Range Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the relevant Term Loans for those Participating Lenders whose Submitted Discount is a discount to par greater than or equal to the Applicable Discount (the “Identified Participating Lenders”) shall be made pro-rata among the Identified Participating Lenders in accordance with the Submitted Amount of each such Identified Participating Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with Finance and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Discount Range Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within five Business Days following the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) Finance of the respective Term Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount and tranches of Term Loans to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Participating Lender of the aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date and (IV) if applicable, each Identified Participating Lender of the Discount Range Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to Finance and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to Finance shall be due and payable by Finance on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(D)        (1) Subject to the proviso to subsection (A) above, Finance may from time to time solicit Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers by providing the Auction Agent with three Business Days’ notice in the form of a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of Finance, to each Term Lender and/or each Lender with respect to any Class of Term Loans on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate dollar amount of the Term Loans (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount”) and the tranche or tranches of Term Loans Finance is willing to prepay at a discount (it being understood that different Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Term Loans and, in such an event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section), (III) the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof and (IV) each such solicitation by Finance shall remain outstanding through the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Lender with a copy of such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice and a form of the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding Term Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of

- 121 -

such notice to the relevant Term Lenders (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date”). Each Term Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer shall (x) be irrevocable, (y) remain outstanding until the Acceptance Date and (z) specify both a discount to par (the “Offered Discount”) such Term Lender is willing to allow to be applied to the prepayment of its then outstanding Term Loan and the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Term Loans (the “Offered Amount”) such Term Lender is willing to have prepaid subject to such Offered Discount. Any Term Lender whose Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer is not received by the Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount.

(2)       The Auction Agent shall promptly provide Holdings, Finance or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries with a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received on or before the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. Finance shall review all such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers and select the largest of the Offered Discounts specified by the relevant responding Term Lenders in the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers that is acceptable to Finance (the “Acceptable Discount”), if any. If Finance elects to accept any Offered Discount as the Acceptable Discount, then as soon as practicable after the determination of the Acceptable Discount, but in no event later than by the third Business Day after the date of receipt by Finance from the Auction Agent of a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers pursuant to the first sentence of this subsection (2) (the “Acceptance Date”), Finance shall submit an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice to the Auction Agent setting forth the Acceptable Discount. If the Auction Agent shall fail to receive an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice from Finance by the Acceptance Date, Finance shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers.

(3)       Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment Determination Date”), the Auction Agent will determine (in consultation with Finance and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Loans (the “Acceptable Prepayment Amount”) to be prepaid by Finance at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.11(a)(ii)(D). If Finance elects to accept any Acceptable Discount, then Finance agrees to accept all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered Discount, up to and including the Acceptable Discount. Each Lender that has submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer with a Offered Discount that is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Offered Amount (subject to any required pro-rata reduction pursuant to the following sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Lender, a “Qualifying Lender”). Finance will

- 122 -

prepay outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this subsection (D) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at the Acceptable Discount; provided that if the aggregate Offered Amount by all Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the Term Loans for those Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount (the “Identified Qualifying Lenders”) shall be made pro-rata among the Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each such Identified Qualifying Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with Holdings, Finance or any of their respective Subsidiaries and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Solicited Discount Proration”). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment Determination Date, the Auction Agent shall promptly notify (I) Finance of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and Acceptable Prepayment Amount comprising the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender who made a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Acceptable Discount, and the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all Term Loans and the tranches to be prepaid to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date and (IV) if applicable, each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to Finance and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to Finance shall be due and payable by Finance on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(E)       In connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, Holdings, the Restricted Subsidiaries and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the payment of reasonable and customary fees and expenses from Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection therewith.

(F)       If any Term Loan is prepaid in accordance with paragraphs (B) through (D) above, Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall prepay such Term Loans on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall make such prepayment to the Auction Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the remaining principal installments of the relevant tranche of Term Loans on a pro rata basis across such installments. The Term Loans so prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so

- 123 -

prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(ii) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable. The aggregate principal amount of the tranches and installments of the relevant Term Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the tranches of Term Loans prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment.

(G)       To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Term Loan Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent with the provisions in this Section 2.11(a)(ii), established by the Auction Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

(H)       Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 2.11(a)(ii), each notice or other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon Auction Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual receipt during normal business hours of such notice or communication; provided that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day.

(I)       Each of Holdings, the Restricted Subsidiaries and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that the Auction Agent may perform any and all of its duties under this Section 2.11(a)(ii) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Auction Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Auction Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate. The exculpatory provisions pursuant to this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the Auction Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 2.11(a)(ii) as well as activities of the Auction Agent.

(J)       Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall have the right, by written notice to the Auction Agent, to revoke in full (but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice therefor at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, Discount Range Prepayment Response Date or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, as applicable (and if such offer is revoked pursuant to the preceding clauses, any failure by Finance to make any prepayment to a Term Lender, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(ii) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 7.01 or otherwise).

- 124 -

(b)       In the event and on each occasion that (i) the aggregate Revolving Exposures of any Class exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments of such Class (except as a result of any revaluation of the Dollar Equivalent of the Revolving Exposure attributable to such Class) or the aggregate Revolving Exposures of any Class exceed 105% of the aggregate Revolving Commitments of such Class (solely as a result of any revaluation of the Dollar Equivalent of the Revolving Exposure attributable to such Class), the applicable Co-Borrower(s) shall prepay Revolving Borrowings or Swingline Loans of such Class (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with a depositary bank that is a Lender reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(j)) in an aggregate amount necessary to eliminate such excess or (ii) any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event described in clause (b) of the definition thereof, Finance shall, on the date of such Prepayment Event, prepay Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds; provided that if the prepayment arising from such Prepayment Event occurs on or prior to the date that is twelve months following the Effective Date and is in connection with a Repricing Transaction, Finance shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the Initial Term Lenders, a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans being prepaid in connection with such Repricing Transaction.

(c)       In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event described in clause (a) of the definition thereof, Finance shall, within five Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to (x) 100% of such Net Proceeds if the Senior Secured First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (prior to giving effect to the applicable prepayment, but after giving effect to any voluntary prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) prior to the date of such prepayment) as of the date of such Prepayment Event is greater than 1.75 to 1.00, (y) 50% of such Net Proceeds if the Senior Secured First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (prior to giving effect to the applicable prepayment, but after giving effect to any voluntary prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) prior to the date of such prepayment) as of the date of such Prepayment Event is greater than 1.25 to 1.00 but less than or equal to 1.75 to 1.00 and (z) 0% of such Net Proceeds if the Senior Secured First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (prior to giving effect to the applicable prepayment, but after giving effect to any voluntary prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) prior to the date of such prepayment) as of the date of such Prepayment Event is less than or equal to 1.25 to 1.00; provided that if Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries invests (or commits to invest) the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof) within 365 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds in the business of Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries (including any acquisitions permitted under Section 6.04), then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of such Net Proceeds in respect of such event (or the applicable portion of such Net Proceeds, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so invested (or committed to be invested) by the end of such 365 day period (or if committed to be so invested within such 365 day period, have not been so invested within 180 days of the expiration of such 365 day period), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to such Net Proceeds that have not been so invested (or committed to be invested); provided further that Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries may use a portion of such Net Proceeds to prepay or repurchase any other Indebtedness that is secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Secured Obligations to the extent such other Indebtedness and the Liens securing the same are permitted hereunder and

- 125 -

the documentation governing such other Indebtedness requires such a prepayment or repurchase thereof with the proceeds of such Prepayment Event, in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (x) the amount of such Net Proceeds and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such other Indebtedness and the denominator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans and such other Indebtedness.

(d)       Following the end of each fiscal year of Holdings, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, Finance shall prepay Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the excess of (x) the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year over (y) $10,000,000; provided that such amount shall, at the option of Finance, be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis for such fiscal year by the aggregate amount of repayments, prepayments and repurchases of (A) Term Loans (and to the extent the Revolving Commitments are reduced in a corresponding amount pursuant to Section 2.08, Revolving Loans) made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) (or otherwise in a manner not prohibited by Section 9.04(g)), (B) Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.10 and (C) other Consolidated Senior Secured First Lien Indebtedness, in each case during such fiscal year (without duplication of amounts deducted pursuant to this proviso in prior fiscal years), or (except in the case of clause (B)) after such fiscal year and on or prior to the 90th day after the end of such fiscal year; provided further that (1) such reduction as a result of prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(ii) or Section 9.04(g) shall be limited to the actual amount of such cash prepayment, (2) in the case of the prepayment of any Revolving Loans, there is a corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments and (3) such reduction shall exclude all such prepayments funded with the proceeds of other long-term Indebtedness of Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Revolving Loans). Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.11(d) shall be made on or before the date that is 10 days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 with respect to the fiscal year for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated.

(e)       Prior to any optional prepayment of Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i), the applicable Co-Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section 2.11. In the event of any mandatory prepayment of Term Borrowings made at a time when Term Borrowings of more than one Class remain outstanding, Finance shall select Term Borrowings to be prepaid so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated among the Initial Term Borrowings and, to the extent provided in the Incremental Facility Amendment, Loan Modification Agreement or Refinancing Amendment for any Class of Term Loans, the Borrowings of each such Class, pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class; provided that any Initial Term Lender (and, to the extent provided in the Incremental Facility Amendment, Loan Modification Agreement or Refinancing Amendment for any Class of Term Loans, any Lender that holds Term Loans of such Class) may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) at least two Business Days (or in the case of prepayments of any Term Loans that are ABR Loans, one Business Day) prior to the prepayment date, to decline all or any portion of any prepayment of its Term Loans of any Class pursuant to this Section 2.11 (other than an optional prepayment pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.11 or a mandatory prepayment as a result of the Prepayment Event set forth in clause (b) of the definition thereof, which may not be declined), in which case the aggregate amount of the prepayment that would have been applied to prepay Term Loans of any Class but was so declined (and not used pursuant to the immediately following sentence) shall be retained by

- 126 -

Finance (such amounts, “Retained Declined Proceeds”). In the absence of a designation by the applicable Co-Borrower as described in the preceding provisions of this paragraph of the Type of Borrowing of any Class, the Administrative Agent shall make such designation in its reasonable discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.16 and shall be applied in direct order of maturity; provided that, in connection with any mandatory prepayments by Finance of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), such prepayments shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans.

(f)       The applicable Co-Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent at the Applicable Office (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) of any prepayment hereunder by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing (other than a Swingline 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 Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and 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 a notice of optional prepayment may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or the occurrence of some other identifiable event or condition, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked by such Co-Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. 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 and currency as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13, and subject to Section 2.11(a)(i), shall be without premium or penalty.

(g)       Notwithstanding any other provisions of Section 2.11(c) or (d), (A) to the extent that any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Prepayment Event by or Excess Cash Flow of a Foreign Subsidiary of Holdings giving rise to a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d) (a “Foreign Prepayment Event”) are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to Holdings or its Domestic Subsidiaries, the portion of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be taken into account in determining the amount to be applied to prepay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained by such Subsidiary, and once Finance has determined in good faith that such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, the amount of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be taken into account as soon as practicable in determining the amount to be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved if such amounts were repatriated) to the prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as applicable, (B) to the extent that and for so long as Holdings has determined in good faith that repatriation of

- 127 -

any of or all the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow in respect of any Foreign Prepayment Event would have a material adverse tax or cost consequence with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the amount of Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be taken into account in determining the amount to be applied to prepay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained by such Subsidiary; provided that when Holdings determines in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow in respect of any Foreign Prepayment Event would no longer have a material adverse tax consequence with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow shall be taken into account as soon as practicable in determining the amount to be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against if such amounts were repatriated) to the prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as applicable and (C) to the extent that and for so long as Finance has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow in respect of any Foreign Prepayment Event would give rise to a risk of liability for the directors of such Subsidiary, the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be taken into account in determining the amount to be applied to prepay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained by such Subsidiary, and once Finance has determined in good faith that such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow would not give rise to a risk of liability for the directors of such Subsidiary, the amount of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be taken into account as soon as practicable in determining the amount to be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved if such amounts were repatriated) to the prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as applicable.

Section 2.12.       Fees. (a) Finance agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in dollars for the account of each Initial Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.25% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Initial Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Initial Revolving Commitments terminate. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the third Business Day following the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Initial Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, an Initial Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Initial Revolving Loans and LC Exposure attributable to the Initial Revolving Commitments of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender attributable to the Initial Revolving Commitments shall be disregarded for such purpose).

(b)       The applicable Co-Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent in dollars for the account of each Initial Revolving Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Initial Revolving Loans that are EurodollarTerm Benchmark Revolving Loans on the daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to the Initial Revolving Commitments for Letters of Credit for the account of such Co-Borrower (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements but taking into account the maximum amount available to be drawn under all outstanding Letters of

- 128 -

Credit, whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect) during the period from and including the Effective Date to and including the later of the date on which such Lender’s Initial Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure attributable to the Initial Revolving Commitments and (ii) to each Issuing Bank in dollars a fronting fee, which shall accrue at a rate of 0.125% per annum on the daily amount of the LC Exposure, attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank for the account of such Co-Borrower (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements but taking into account the maximum amount available to be drawn under all outstanding Letters of Credit, whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect) during the period from and including the Effective Date to and including the later of the date of termination of all the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees 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 the last day of March, June, September and December, respectively, 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 Initial Revolving Commitments (in the case of participation fees) or all the Revolving Commitments (in the case of fronting fees) terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Initial Revolving Commitments (in the case of participation fees) or all the Revolving Commitments (in the case of fronting fees) terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank 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).

(c)       Holdings agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between Holdings or any of the Co-Borrowers, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand.

(d)       [Reserved].

(e)       Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Section 2.22, none of the Co-Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any amounts to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12.

Section 2.13.       Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan made to Finance) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b)       The Initial Term Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. The Initial Revolving Loans comprising each Swingline Loan made to Luxembourg Holdco or SwisscoTerm Benchmark Borrowing shall bear interest at the USD Swingline RateAdjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, as applicable, for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

- 129 -

(c)       Notwithstanding the foregoing, if upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Co-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, 2.00% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.13 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.13.

(d)       Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.13 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 Initial Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar/Term Benchmark 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 and (iv) upon the termination of the Revolving Commitments, accrued interest on the Revolving Loans shall be payable.

(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 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, Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or Adjusted EURIBOR Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.14.         Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) Subject to paragraphs (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 2.14, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing:

(i)       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 or, the LIBO Rate, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Term SOFR, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate or the EURIBOR Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or

(ii)       the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or, the LIBO Rate, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Term SOFR, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate or the EURIBOR Rate, in each case, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period (in each case with respect to the Loans impacted by this clause (b) or clause (a) above, “Impacted Loans”),

- 130 -

then the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Co-Borrowers and the Lenders by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Co-Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing shall be ineffective, (ii) any affected Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing shall (A) if denominated in dollars, be continued as an ABR Borrowing on the last day of then current Interest Period applicable thereto and (B) if denominated in an Alternative Currency, be repaid on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing, then (A) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing and (B) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Borrowing Request shall be ineffective; provided, however, that, in each case, each Co-Borrower may revoke any Borrowing Request that is pending when such notice is received.

Furthermore, if any Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Co-Borrowers’ receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.14(a) with respect to the LIBO Rate, Term SOFR or the EURIBOR Rate, then (i) if such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan is denominated in dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in dollars on such day or (ii) if such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan is denominated in any Agreed Currency (other than dollars), then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), at the Co-Borrowers’ election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Co-Borrowers on such day or (B) be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and (subject to the remainder of this subclause (B)) shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Agreed Currency) on such day (it being understood and agreed that if the Co-Borrowers do not so prepay such Loan on such day by 12:00 noon, New York City time, the Administrative Agent is authorized to effect such conversion of such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan into an ABR Loan denominated in dollars), and, in the case of such subclause (B), upon the Co-Borrowers’ receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to the aforementioned notice no longer exist, such ABR Loan denominated in dollars shall then be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan denominated in such original Agreed Currency (in an amount equal to the Alternative Currency Equivalent of such Agreed Currency) on the day of such notice being given to the Co-Borrowers by the Administrative Agent.

(b)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement

- 131 -

is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority in Interest of each Class.

(c)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, solely with respect to a dollar Loan, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this paragraph (c) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Co-Borrowers a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion.

(d)       In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(e)       The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Co-Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (f) below (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.

(f)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or, LIBO Rate or EURIBOR Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the

- 132 -

Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(g)       Upon the Co-Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Co-Borrowers may revoke any request for a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x) the Co-Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request for a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans or (y) any Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be ineffective. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. Furthermore, if any Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Co-Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to the LIBO Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, as applicable, then (i) if such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan is denominated in dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in dollars on such day or (ii) if such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan is denominated in any Agreed Currency (other than dollars), then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), at the Co-Borrowers’ election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Co-Borrowers on such day or (B) be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and (subject to the remainder of this subclause (B)) shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Agreed Currency) on such day (it being understood and agreed that if the Co-Borrowers do not so prepay such Loan on such day by 12:00 noon, New York City time, the Administrative Agent is authorized to effect such conversion of such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan into an ABR Loan denominated in dollars), and, in the case of such subclause (B), upon any subsequent implementation of a Benchmark Replacement in respect of such Agreed Currency pursuant to this Section 2.14, such ABR Loan denominated in dollars shall then be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan denominated in such original Agreed Currency (in an amount equal to the Alternative Currency Equivalent of such Agreed Currency) on the day of such implementation, giving effect to such Benchmark Replacement in respect of such Agreed Currency.

Section 2.15.       Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i)       impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, as applicable); or

(ii)       impose on any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank or (in the case of Eurodollar Loans) the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (including Taxes, other than Excluded Taxes or Indemnified Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans made by such Lender or the Administrative Agent or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, from time to time upon request of such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, the Co-Borrowers will pay to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such increased costs actually incurred or reduction actually suffered.

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

(c)       A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company in reasonable detail, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.15 delivered to a Co-Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Co-Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof.

- 134 -

(d)       Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that none of the Co-Borrowers shall be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Co-Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’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 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e)       Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Lender or Issuing Bank shall demand compensation for any increased cost or reduction pursuant to this Section 2.15 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender or Issuing Bank to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements after consideration of such factors as such Lender or Issuing Bank then reasonably determines to be relevant.

Section 2.16.       Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar/Term Benchmark 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 Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan or Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11 and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by any Co-Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19 or Section 2.02(c), then, in any such event, such Co-Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by any Lender affected by any such event (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense (excluding loss of profit) incurred by it as a result of such event. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by a Co-Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 2.16 in respect of Initial Term Loans, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Loan made by it at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable interbank Eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Loan was in fact so funded. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 and the reasons therefor delivered to a Co-Borrower shall be prima facie evidence of such amounts. The applicable Co-Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt of such demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.16 will not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes.

Section 2.17.       Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Requirements of Law; provided, however, that, with respect to Swiss Withholding Tax only, Swissco shall not be required to pay any additional amount to a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.17(a) if such Lender (A) has

- 135 -

breached Section 2.17(h) or (B) has made an assignment without the consent of Swissco in breach of the requirements of Section 9.04(b) or has sold a participation to a Non-Qualifying Bank without the consent of Swissco in breach of the requirements of Section 9.04(c)(i)(D). If the applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent) to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such payments, then the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions or withholdings and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, and if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all such required deductions or withholdings have been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.17), each Lender (or, in the case of a payment made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made.

(b)       Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the applicable Co-Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirements of Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c)       The applicable Co-Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender as the case may be, or required to be withheld or deducted from any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Co-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.

(d)       As soon as practicable after any payment of any Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the applicable Co-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)       (1)       Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by a Co-Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide such Co-Borrower and the Administrative Agent with any properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by any Requirement of Law, or reasonably requested by such Co-Borrower or the Administrative Agent, certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, any withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under the Loan Documents. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by a Co-Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by any Requirement of Law, or reasonably requested by such Co-Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as will enable such Co-Borrower or the Administrative

- 136 -

Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any such documentation expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any respect (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 2.17(e)), deliver promptly to the applicable Co-Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent) or promptly notify such Co-Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.17(e)(2)(i), 2.17(e)(2)(ii)(A)–(D) and 2.17(e)(2)(iii)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Unless the applicable withholding agent has received forms or other documents satisfactory to it indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Lender are not subject to withholding Tax or are subject to Tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the applicable Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent or other applicable withholding agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

(2)       Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i)       Each Lender that is a “United States person” (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Co-Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of a Co-Borrower or the Administrative Agent) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

(ii)       Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Co-Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of a Co-Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

(A)       two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;

(B)       two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms);

(C)       in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) two properly completed and duly signed certificates, substantially in the form of Exhibit Q-1, Q-2, Q-3 or Q-4 (any such certificate a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”), as applicable and (y) two properly completed and duly

- 137 -

signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms);

(D)       to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Foreign Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, applicable United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY (or other successor forms) or any other required information from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 2.17 if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if the Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Lender on behalf of such direct or indirect partner(s)); or

(E)       two properly completed and duly signed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Co-Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii)       If a payment made to any Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Co-Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by a Co-Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by a Co-Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Co-Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(3)       Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form or certification that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(4)       Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.17(e).

(f)       If any Co-Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder, the

- 138 -

Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the applicable Co-Borrower in a reasonable challenge of such Taxes if so requested by such Co-Borrower; provided that (A) the Administrative Agent or such Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that it would not be subject to any unreimbursed third-party cost or expense or otherwise be prejudiced by cooperating in such challenge, (B) such Co-Borrower pays all related expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, and (c) such Co-Borrower indemnifies the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, for any liabilities or other costs incurred by such party in connection with such challenge. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender receives a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Co-Borrower or with respect to which any Co-Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to such Co-Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by or on behalf of such Co-Borrower under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Co-Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees promptly to repay the amount paid over to such Co-Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. The Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, at any Co-Borrower’s request, provide such Co-Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant Governmental Authority (provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may delete any information therein that the Administrative Agent or such Lender deems confidential). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to any Co-Borrower pursuant to this paragraph the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.17(f) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes which it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other person.

(g)       The agreements in this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(h)       Each Revolving Lender that is a Lender as of the Effective Date confirms that, as of the Effective Date such Lender is a Qualifying Bank. Each person that shall become a Revolving Lender after the Effective Date confirms that as of the date such person becomes a Lender, and each person that shall at any time acquire a participation in any Revolving Commitment shall be deemed to have confirmed as of the date such person acquires such participation (or, if earlier, the date on which such person acquired the participation in a Commitment that resulted in its acquisition of such participation in such Loan of Swissco upon

- 139 -

the making thereof), it is (i) a Qualifying Bank or (ii) one single creditor for the purposes of the Swiss Ten Non-Bank Rule and the Swiss Twenty Non-Bank Rule.

(i)       For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” shall include any Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender.

Section 2.18.       Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. (a) Each Loan Party shall make each payment required to be made by it under any Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, 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 2:00 p.m., Local Time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, recoupment or setoff. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account as may be specified by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender shall be made as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Section 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. 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. All payments by any Co-Borrower hereunder with respect to principal of and interest on Loans shall, except as otherwise provided herein, be made in the currency of such Loan, and all other payments made hereunder shall be made in dollars, in each case to such account as may be specified by the Administrative Agent. Except as otherwise provided herein, 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. If any payment hereunder or under any other Loan Document becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate for the period of such extension.

(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, interest 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 then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c)       If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest 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

- 140 -

Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest 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 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 (A) any payment made by any Co-Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B) 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 or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant or (C) any disproportionate payment obtained by a Lender of any Class as a result of the extension by Lenders of the maturity date or expiration date of some but not all Loans or Revolving Commitments of that Class or any increase in the Applicable Rate in respect of Loans of Lenders that have consented to any such extension. Each Co-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 Co-Borrower’s rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Co-Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d)       Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Co-Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that such Co-Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Co-Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, distribute to the Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Co-Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank 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 (i) in the case of a payment due in dollars, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment due in an Alternative Currency, the rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount (which determination will be conclusive absent manifest error).

(e)       If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), Section 2.05(e) or Section 2.05(f), Section 2.06(a) or Section 2.06(b), Section 2.18(d) or Section 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and in the order determined by the Administrative Agent (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash

- 141 -

collateral for, and to be applied to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section.

Section 2.19.       Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Co-Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or any event gives rise to the operation of Section 2.23, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or its participation in any Letter of Credit affected by such event, or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17 or mitigate the applicability of Section 2.23, as the case may be and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material and would not be inconsistent with the internal policies of, or otherwise be disadvantageous in any material economic, legal or regulatory respect to, such Lender.

(b)       If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15 or gives notice under Section 2.23, (ii) any Co-Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, (iii) any Lender is a Disqualified Lender or (iv) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then each Co-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 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (A) such Co-Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned and delegated, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender), which consents, in each case, shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and unreimbursed participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued but unpaid interest thereon, accrued but unpaid 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 Co-Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (C) such Co-Borrower or such assignee shall have paid (unless waived) to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b)(ii) and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15, or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17 or a notice given under Section 2.23, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments. 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 (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph (a) above), the circumstances entitling such Co-Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by any Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto.

Section 2.20.       Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) Finance may at any time or from time to time on one or more occasions after the Effective Date, by written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent request (i) one or more additional Classes of term loans (each a “Incremental Term Facility”) and/or (ii) one or more additional term loans of the same Class of any existing Class of term loans (each a “Incremental Term Increase”), and the Co-Borrowers may at any time or from time to time on one or more occasions after the Effective Date, by written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent request (i) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Commitments of any Class (each such increase, an “Incremental Revolving Commitment Increase”) and/or (ii) one or more additional Classes of Revolving Commitments (the “Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments,” and, together with any Incremental Term Facility, Incremental Term Increase and the Incremental Revolving Commitment Increases, the “Incremental Facilities”); provided that after giving effect to any Incremental Facility Amendment referred to below and at the time that any such Incremental Facility is made or effected, (x) no Event of Default (or, in the case of the incurrence or provision of any Incremental Facility in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, no Specified Event of Default) shall have occurred and be continuing and (y) the representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Documents (or, in the case of the incurrence or provision of any Incremental Facility in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, customary specified representations and warranties and customary specified acquisition agreement representations and warranties) shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date (provided that, in each case, to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, they shall be true and correct in all material respect as of such earlier date; provided further that, in each case, any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct in all respect as of such date). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Facilities that can be incurred at any time shall not exceed the Incremental Cap at such time. Each Incremental Facility shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (unless the Co-Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise agree); provided that such amount may be less than $5,000,000 if such amount represents all the remaining availability under the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Facilities set forth above.

(b)       (i)    The Incremental Term Facilities (A) shall (1) rank equal or junior in right of payment with the Initial Term Loans, (2) if secured, be secured only by the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations and (3) only be guaranteed by the Loan Parties, (B) shall not mature earlier than the Initial Term Maturity Date, (C) shall not have a shorter Weighted Average Life to Maturity than the remaining Initial Term Loans, (D) shall have a maturity date (subject to clause (B)), an amortization schedule (subject to clause (C)), interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), “most favored nation” provisions (if any), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts, financial covenants (if any) and prepayment terms and premiums and other terms and conditions as determined by Finance and the Additional Term Lenders thereunder; provided that, for any Incremental Term Facility that ranks equal in right of payment with the Initial Term Loans and is secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Secured Obligations, in the event that the Effective Yield for any such Incremental Term Facility is greater than the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans by more than 0.50% per annum, the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans is equal to the Effective Yield for such Incremental Term Facility minus 0.50% per annum (provided that the “LIBOR floor” applicable to the

- 143 -

outstanding Initial Term Loans shall be increased to an amount not to exceed the “LIBOR floor” applicable to such Incremental Term Facility prior to any increase in the Applicable Rate applicable to such Initial Term Loans then outstanding), (E) shall not have the benefit of mandatory prepayment provisions that are more favorable to the applicable lenders or creditors than those of the Initial Term Loans (it being understood that any such Indebtedness that is secured on a pari passu basis by the Collateral with the Secured Obligations may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than a pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any mandatory repayments or prepayments in respect of the Initial Term Loans), unless (1) the Lenders of the Initial Term Loans also receive the benefit of such more favorable terms or (2) any such provisions apply only after the Initial Term Maturity Date and (F) may otherwise have terms and conditions as agreed between Finance and the Additional Term Lenders providing any such Incremental Term Facility but without any financial covenants or event of default provisions that are more restrictive, when taken as a whole, than the covenants and event of default provisions applicable to the Initial Term Loans (as determined by Holdings in good faith).

(ii)       The Incremental Term Increases shall be treated the same as the Class of Term Loans being increased (including with respect to the maturity date thereof), shall be considered to be part of the Class of Term Loans being increased and shall be on the same terms applicable to the Class of Term Loans being increased (excluding upfront fees and customary arranger fees); provided that (i) if required to consummate the applicable Incremental Term Increase, the pricing, interest rate margins, “most favored nation” (if any) provisions and rate floors on the Class of Term Loans being increased may be increased and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the Additional Lenders providing the Incremental Term Increase (without any requirement to pay such fees to any existing Term Lenders) and (ii) if the effect of any such Incremental Term Increase is to increase the Effective Yield of the Class of Term Loans being increased (as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (i)), then such Incremental Term Increase shall be subject to the “most favored nation” pricing adjustment provisions set forth in the proviso to Section 2.20(b)(i) as if such Incremental Term Increase was an Incremental Term Facility incurred hereunder.

(iii)       The Incremental Revolving Commitment Increases shall be treated the same as the Class of Revolving Commitments being increased (including with respect to the maturity date thereof), shall be considered to be part of the Class of Revolving Commitments being increased and shall be on the same terms applicable to the Class of Revolving Commitments being increased (excluding upfront fees and customary arranger fees); provided that if required to consummate the applicable Incremental Revolving Commitment Increase, the pricing, interest rate margins, “most favored nation” (if any) provisions, rate floors and undrawn commitment fees on the Class of Revolving Commitments being increased may be increased and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the Additional Lenders providing the Incremental Revolving Commitment Increase (without any requirement to pay such fees to any existing Revolving Lenders).

(iv)       The Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments (and the Revolving Loans made thereunder) (A) shall (1) rank equal or junior in right of payment with the Initial Revolving Commitments, (2) if secured, be secured only by the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations and (3) only be guaranteed by the Loan Parties, (B) shall not

- 144 -

mature earlier than the Initial Revolving Maturity Date and shall require no scheduled amortization or mandatory commitment reduction prior to the Initial Revolving Maturity Date, (C) shall have interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, undrawn commitment fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts, prepayment terms and premiums, financial covenants (if any) and commitment reduction and termination terms as determined by the Co-Borrowers and Additional Revolving Lenders providing such commitments and (D) may otherwise have terms and conditions as agreed between the Co-Borrowers and the Additional Revolving Lenders providing any such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments but without any financial covenants or event of default provisions that are more restrictive, when taken as a whole, than the covenants and event of default provisions applicable to the Initial Term Loans (as determined by Holdings in good faith).

(c)       Each notice from any Co-Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall set forth the requested amount of the relevant Commitment in respect of an Incremental Term Facility, Incremental Term Increase, Incremental Revolving Commitment Increase or Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments.

(d)       Incremental Facilities shall become Commitments and Loans, as applicable, under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by Holdings, each Co-Borrower, each Additional Lender and the Administrative Agent. Any Incremental Facility Amendment may provide for the issuance of additional letters of credit for the account of any Co-Borrower or the incurrence of additional swingline loans by any Co-Borrower pursuant to any Incremental Revolving Commitment Increase or Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments established thereby, in each case on terms substantially equivalent to the terms applicable to Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans under the Initial Revolving Commitments; provided that no Issuing Bank shall be required to act as “issuing bank” and no Swingline Lender shall be required to act as “swingline lender” under any such Incremental Facility Amendment without its written consent. An Incremental Facility may be provided, subject to the prior written consent of each Co-Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld), by any existing Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender shall have the right to participate in any Incremental Facility or, unless it agrees, shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Facilities). Any loan under an Incremental Facility shall be a “Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any commitment under any Incremental Facility shall be a “Commitment” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any Incremental Facility Amendment may, subject to Section 2.20(b), without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and each Co-Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.20 (including, in connection with an Incremental Revolving Commitment Increase or Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, to reallocate Revolving Exposure on a pro rata basis among the relevant Revolving Lenders). In addition, if so provided in the relevant Incremental Facility Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Bank, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Initial Revolving Maturity Date shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Initial Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such Incremental Facility Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant

- 145 -

Lenders holding Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. The effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Amendment and the occurrence of any credit event (including the making (but not the conversion or continuation) of a Loan and the issuance, increase in the amount, or extension of a Letter of Credit thereunder) pursuant to such Incremental Facility Amendment shall be subject to delivery of a Borrowing Request in accordance with Section 2.03 and the satisfaction of such conditions as the parties thereto shall agree and as required by this Section 2.20. Each Co-Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Term Increases, Incremental Revolving Commitment Increases and Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

(e)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 2.20 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.02 to the contrary.

Section 2.21.       Refinancing Amendments. (a) At any time after the Effective Date, (I) Finance may obtain, from any Additional Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of (i) all or any portion of the Term Loans of any Class then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (i) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) and (ii) all or any portion of Incremental Equivalent Debt, in the form of Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments and (II) each Co-Borrower may obtain, from any Additional Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of (i) all or any portion of the Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) of any Class then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (i) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Revolving Loans and Other Revolving Commitments) and (ii) all or any portion of Incremental Equivalent Debt, in the form of Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (A) will be unsecured or will be secured solely by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis with the Secured Obligations (and if secured, subject to the terms of a Customary Intercreditor Agreement), (B) will have such pricing and optional prepayment terms as may be agreed by each Co-Borrower and the Additional Lenders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness and (C) the Net Proceeds of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the prepayment of outstanding Term Loans of the applicable Class, the reduction of Revolving Commitments of the applicable Class (and the prepayment of the outstanding Revolving Loans of such Class) or the prepayment, satisfaction and discharge or redemption of the outstanding Incremental Equivalent Debt, as the case may be, that is being refinanced by such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of the conditions as agreed between the Additional Lenders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness and each Co-Borrower and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date under Section 4.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this

- 146 -

Section 2.21 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (in each case unless each Co-Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise agree). Any Refinancing Amendment may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of each Co-Borrower, or the provision to each Co-Borrower of Swingline Loans, pursuant to any Other Revolving Commitments established thereby, in each case on terms substantially equivalent to the terms applicable to Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans under the Revolving Commitments; provided that no Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender shall be required to act as “issuing bank” or “swingline lender” under any such Refinancing Amendment without its written consent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Term Loans, Other Revolving Loans, Other Revolving Commitments and/or Other Term Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and each Co-Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.21 (including to reallocate Revolving Exposure on a pro rata basis among the relevant Revolving Lenders). In addition, if so provided in the relevant Refinancing Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Bank, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Initial Revolving Maturity Date shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Initial Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding Other Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such Refinancing Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Other Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Other Revolving Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.

(b)       This Section 2.21 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.02 to the contrary.

Section 2.22.       Defaulting Lenders.       (a)        Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i)       Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.02.

(ii)       Reallocation of Payments. Subject to the last sentence of Section 2.11(e), any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows:

- 147 -

first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, as each Co-Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, in the case of a Revolving Lender, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and each Co-Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Loan Party as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Loan Party against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements and such Lender is a Defaulting Lender under clause (a) of the definition thereof, then such payment shall be applied solely to pay the relevant Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied pursuant to Section 2.05(j) or this Section 2.22(a)(ii). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.05(j) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)       Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive or accrue any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.12(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and none of the Co-Borrowers shall be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit fees as provided in Section 2.12(b).

(iv)       Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.04 and 2.05 and the payments of participation fees pursuant to Section 2.12(b), the “Applicable Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the aggregate Revolving Commitments of that non-Defaulting Lender immediately prior to such acquisition, refinancing or funding, minus (2) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans of that non-Defaulting Lender outstanding at such time.

- 148 -

(v)       Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swingline Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Co-Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize each Issuing Bank’s Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j).

(b)       Defaulting Lender Cure. If each Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of such Class of the other applicable Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the applicable Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans of such Class to be held on a pro rata basis by the applicable Lenders of such Class in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iv) or the proviso to the definition thereof), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender with respect to such Class; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of any Co-Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.23.       Illegality. If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Adjusted LIBORelevant Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBORelevant Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to each Co-Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans or to convert ABR Loans denominated in dollars to Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans shall be suspended and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Adjusted LIBORelevant Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, the interest rate on such ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted LIBORelevant Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and each Co-Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) each Co-Borrower shall, upon three Business Days’ notice from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay all such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans of such Lender or, solely with respect to Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans denominated in dollars, convert all such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans, in each case either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar/Term Benchmark Loans and (y) if such

- 149 -

notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBORelevant Rate, then the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Adjusted LIBORelevant Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBORelevant Rate. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and each Co-Borrower in writing promptly upon becoming aware that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBORelevant Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, each Co-Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

Section 2.24.       Loan Modification Offers. (a) At any time after the Effective Date, each Co-Borrower may on one or more occasions, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, an “Affected Class”) to effect one or more Permitted Amendments relating to such Affected Class pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Co-Borrowers (including mechanics to permit cashless rollovers and exchanges by Lenders). Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective. Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Lenders of the Affected Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans and Commitments of such Affected Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made.

(b)       A Permitted Amendment shall be effected pursuant to a Loan Modification Agreement executed and delivered by Holdings, each Co-Borrower, each applicable Accepting Lender and the Administrative Agent; provided that no Permitted Amendment shall become effective unless Holdings and each Co-Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent such legal opinions, board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other documents as shall be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each Loan Modification Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Accepting Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.24, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder.

(c)       If, in connection with any proposed Loan Modification Offer, any Lender of the Affected Class declines to consent to such Loan Modification Offer on the terms and by the deadline set forth in such Loan Modification Offer (each such Lender, a “Non-Accepting Lender”) then any Co-Borrower may, on notice to the Administrative Agent and the Non-Accepting Lender, (i) replace such Non-Accepting Lender in whole or in part by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the Loans and Commitments of the Affected Class to one or more Eligible

- 150 -

Assignees (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to any Co-Borrower to find a replacement Lender; provided further that (A) the applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide Loans and/or Commitments of the Affected Class on the terms set forth in the applicable Permitted Amendment, (C) such Non-Accepting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of the Loans of the Affected Class assigned by it pursuant to this Section 2.24(c), accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts (including any amounts under Section 2.11(a)(i)) payable to it hereunder from the Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Co-Borrowers (to the extent of all other amounts) and (c) unless waived, the Co-Borrowers or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b).

(d)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 2.24 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.02 to the contrary.

Section 2.25.       Liability of Co-Borrowers. Each Co-Borrower, by signing this Agreement, and each additional Co-Borrower, from and after the date on which such Co-Borrower executes and delivers the documents set forth in Section 2.26, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Co-Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Loan Document Obligations; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, that none of the Co-Borrowers (other than Finance) shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment and performance of any Loan Document Obligations arising from or in connection with the Term Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, none of the CFC Guarantors, any Domestic Foreign Holdco, any CFC or any Subsidiary that is directly or indirectly owned by a CFC (including for the avoidance of doubt, any Co-Borrowers that are CFCs) shall be held liable for or guarantee any Secured Obligations of Holdings, Finance or any other Domestic Subsidiary.

Section 2.26.       Additional Co-Borrowers. With respect to any Restricted Subsidiary of Holdings that desires to become a Co-Borrower on or after the Effective Date (which may include Restricted Subsidiaries created or acquired after the Effective Date), Holdings shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary to (i) become a Guarantor or a CFC Guarantor, as applicable, and take such other actions as are required pursuant to Section 5.12(a) with respect to a Guarantor or a CFC Guarantor, as applicable, to the extent not previously taken and (ii) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement, pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Co-Borrower hereunder. Upon execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement and delivery of the documentation and information that the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender has reasonably determined that is required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules, such Subsidiary Loan Party shall become a Co-Borrower hereunder and thereupon shall have all of the rights, benefits, duties, and obligations in such capacity under the Loan Documents. Any Subsidiary of Holdings that becomes a Co-Borrower on or after Effective Date (including Subsidiaries created or acquired after the Effective Date) under this Section 2.26 shall be subject to the limitations provided in the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Restricted Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States

- 151 -

(including any State thereof and the District of Columbia), Luxembourg or Switzerland may become a Co-Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.26 without the prior written consent of each Revolving Lender.

Section 2.27.        Minimum Interest; Swiss Withholding Tax.

(a)       The various rates of interests provided for in this Agreement are minimum interest rates.

(b)       When entering into this Agreement, each party hereto has assumed bona fide that the interest payments required under this Agreement are not and will not become subject to Swiss Withholding Tax. Notwithstanding that the parties hereto do not anticipate that any interest payment will be subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, they agree that, in the event that Swiss Withholding Tax should be imposed on interest or other payments by Swissco and if it should not be possible for Swissco to comply with Section 2.17 for any reason, the applicable interest rate in relation with that payment of interest due by Swissco shall, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, be increased so that the interest amount effectively paid by Swissco to each Lender entitled to such payment (after making any deduction of the Swiss Withholding Tax) corresponds to an amount equal to the payment which would have been due had no deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax been required. For this purpose, the Swiss Withholding Tax shall be calculated on the full grossed-up amount. This provision is without prejudice to the Swiss Law Limitations to the extent applicable.

(i)       Swissco shall not be required to make an increased payment to any specific Lender (but without prejudice to the rights of all other Lenders hereunder) under this Section 2.27(b) in connection with a Swiss Withholding Tax if Swissco has breached the Swiss Ten Non-Bank Rule as a direct result of (A) the incorrectness of the representation given by such Lender under Section 2.17(h) regarding its status as Qualifying Bank or (B) such Lender, as assignee or participant, breaching the requirements and limitations for transfers, assignments or participations pursuant to Section 9.04(b) or Section 9.04(c).

(ii)       For the avoidance of doubt, Swissco shall be required to make an increased payment to a specific Lender under this Section 2.27(b) in connection with the imposition of a Swiss Withholding Tax if Swissco has breached the Swiss Ten Non-Bank Rule and/or the Swiss Twenty Non-Bank Rule as a result of its failure to comply with the provisions of Section 3.18 and Section 5.18 or, following the occurrence of an Event of Default, lack of compliance with the Swiss Ten Non-Bank Rule and/or the Swiss Twenty Non-Bank Rule as a result of assignments or participation effected in accordance herewith.

(c)       If requested by the Administrative Agent, Swissco shall provide to the Administrative Agent those documents which are required by law and applicable double taxation treaties to be provided by the payer of such tax for each relevant Lender to prepare a claim for refund of Swiss Withholding Tax.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations in paragraphs (a) and (b) above may be satisfied with respect to financial information of Holdings and its Subsidiaries by furnishing (A) the Form 10-K or 10-Q (or the equivalent and excluding exhibits), as applicable, of Holdings (or a parent company thereof) filed with the SEC within the applicable time periods required by applicable law and regulations (or such longer period applicable to such information specified in Section 5.01(a) or (b)) or (B) the applicable financial statements of any direct or indirect parent of Holdings; provided that (i) to the extent such information relates to a parent of Holdings, such information is accompanied by consolidating information, which may be unaudited, that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to such parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to Holdings and its Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand, and (ii) to the extent such information referred to in (A) or (B) above is in lieu of information required to be provided under paragraph (a) above, such materials are accompanied by a report and opinion of an independent registered public accountant of nationally recognized standing, which report and opinion shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and shall not be subject to any “going concern” or like qualification or exception or any qualification or exception as to the scope of such audit (other than with respect to, or resulting from, (i) an upcoming maturity date of any Indebtedness under this Agreement occurring within one year from the time such opinion is delivered or (ii) any actual failure to satisfy a financial maintenance covenant under this Agreement or any potential inability to satisfy a financial maintenance covenant under this Agreement on a future date or in a future period).

- 163 -

Documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b) (to the extent any such documents are included in materials otherwise filed with the SEC) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date (i) on which Holdings posts such documents, or provides a link thereto on Holdings’s website on the Internet at the website address listed on Schedule 9.01 (or otherwise notified pursuant to Section 9.01(d)); (ii) on which such documents are posted on Holdings’s behalf on an Internet or intranet website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent); or (iii) on which such financial statements and/or other documents are posted on the SEC’s website on the internet at www.sec.gov. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery of or maintain paper copies of the documents referred to above, and each Lender shall be solely responsible for timely accessing posted documents or requesting delivery of paper copies of such documents from the Administrative Agent and maintaining its copies of such documents.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither Holdings nor any Subsidiary shall be required to deliver, disclose, permit the inspection, examination or making of copies of or excerpts from, or any discussion of, any document, information, or other matter (i) that constitutes non-financial trade secrets or non-financial proprietary information, (ii) in respect of which disclosure to the Administrative Agent (or any Lender (or their respective representatives or contractors)) is prohibited by applicable law, (iii) that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege or constitutes attorney work product, (iv) with respect to which any Loan Party owes confidentiality obligations (to the extent not created in contemplation of such Loan Party’s obligations under this Section 5.01) to any third party or (v) that relates to any investigation by any Governmental Authority to the extent (x) such information is identifiable to a particular individual and Holdings in good faith determines such information should remain confidential or (y) the information requested is not factual in nature.

Each of Holdings and each Co-Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent and/or the Joint Lead Arrangers will make available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of Holdings and the Co-Borrowers hereunder (collectively, “Co-Borrower Materials”) by posting the Co-Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive Material Non-Public Information and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to Holdings’s or its Affiliates’ securities. Each of Holdings and each Co-Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Co-Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) all such Co-Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Co-Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” each Co-Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders to treat such Co-Borrower Materials as not containing any Material Non-Public Information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) (provided, however, that to the extent such Co-Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.12); (y) all Co-Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information”; and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Co-Borrower Materials that are not

- 164 -

marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information”; provided that neither Holdings nor any Co-Borrower’s failure to comply with this sentence shall constitute a Default or an Event of Default under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Holdings nor any Co-Borrower shall be under no obligation to mark any Co-Borrower Materials as “PUBLIC”. Holdings and each Co-Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that, unless Holdings or any Co-Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent in advance, all financial statements and certificates furnished pursuant to Section 5.01(a), (b), (c) and (d) above are hereby deemed to be suitable for distribution, and to be made available, to all Lenders and may be treated by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as not containing any Material Non-Public Information.

Section 5.02.       Notices of Material Events. Promptly after any Responsible Officer of Holdings or any Co-Borrower obtains actual knowledge thereof, Holdings or such Co-Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to each Lender through the Administrative Agent) written notice of the following:

(a)       the occurrence of any Default;

(b)       to the extent permissible by Requirements of Law, the filing or commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority against or, to the knowledge of a Financial Officer or another executive officer of Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary, affecting Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary, or the receipt of a written notice of an actual or alleged Environmental Liability, in each case that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(c)       any change in the public ratings of the Initial Term Loans by S&P or Moody’s; and

(d)       the occurrence of any ERISA Event with respect to a Plan sponsored by a Loan Party that would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Each notice delivered under this Section 5.02 shall be accompanied by a written statement of a Responsible Officer of Holdings or the applicable Co-Borrower setting forth the details of the event or development requiring such notice and any action taken or proposed to be taken with respect thereto.

Section 5.03.       Information Regarding Collateral. (a) Holdings or a Co-Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent prompt (and in any event within 30 days or such longer period as reasonably agreed to by the Administrative Agent) written notice of any change (i) in any Loan Party’s legal name (as set forth in its certificate of organization or like document), (ii) in the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of any Loan Party or in the form of its organization or (iii) in any Loan Party’s organizational identification number to the extent that such Loan Party is organized or owns Mortgaged Property in a jurisdiction where an organizational identification number is required to be included in a UCC financing statement for such jurisdiction.

- 165 -

(b)       Not later than five Business Days after financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a), Holdings shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of Holdings (i) setting forth the information required pursuant to Paragraphs 1(a), 1(f), 6, 7 and 9 of the Perfection Certificate or confirming that there has been no change in such information since the later of (x) the date of the Perfection Certificate delivered on the Effective Date or (y) the date of the most recent certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 5.03, (ii) identifying any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary that has become, or ceased to be, a Material Subsidiary or an Excluded Subsidiary during the most recently ended fiscal year and (iii) certifying that all notices required to be given prior to the date of such certificate by Section 5.03 have been given.

Section 5.04.       Existence; Conduct of Business. Holdings will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, do or cause to be done all things necessary to obtain, preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence and the rights, licenses, permits, privileges, franchises, Intellectual Property and Governmental Approvals material to the conduct of its business, except to the extent (other than with respect to the preservation of the existence of Holdings and each Co-Borrower) that the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any merger, amalgamation, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution permitted under Section 6.03 or any Disposition permitted by Section 6.05.

Section 5.05.       Payment of Taxes, etc. Holdings will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, pay all Taxes (whether or not shown on a Tax return) imposed upon it or its income or properties or in respect of its property or assets, before the same shall become delinquent or in default, except where (a) the same are being contested in good faith by an appropriate proceeding diligently conducted by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and Holdings or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, has set aside on its books adequate reserves therefor to the extent required by and in accordance with GAAP and applicable local standards, or (b) the failure to make payment would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.06.       Maintenance of Properties. Holdings will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, keep and maintain all tangible property material to the conduct of its business in good working order and condition (subject to casualty, condemnation and ordinary wear and tear), except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.07.       Insurance. (a) Holdings will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, maintain, with insurance companies that Holdings believes (in the good faith judgment of the management of Holdings) are financially sound and responsible at the time the relevant coverage is placed or renewed, insurance in at least such amounts (after giving effect to any self-insurance which Holdings believes (in the good faith judgment of management of Holdings) is reasonable and prudent in light of the size and nature of its business) and against at least such risks (and with such risk retentions) as Holdings believes (in the good faith judgment or the management of Holdings) are reasonable and prudent in light of the size and nature of its business, and will furnish to the Lenders, upon written request from the Collateral Agent, information presented in reasonable detail as to the insurance so carried. Holdings shall cause

- 166 -

each such policy of general liability or casualty insurance (other than directors and officers policies, workers compensation policies and business interruption insurance), except, in the case of any Foreign Subsidiary where it is not customary to do so in the relevant jurisdiction, to (i) in the case of each general liability insurance policy, name the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, as an additional insured thereunder as its interests may appear and (ii) in the case of each casualty insurance policy, contain a loss payable clause or mortgagee endorsement that names the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, as the loss payee or mortgagee thereunder.

(b)       If any “Building” (as defined in 12 CFR Chapter III, Section 339.2) or other improvement included in any Mortgaged Property is at any time located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor agency) as a special flood hazard area with respect to which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (as now or hereafter in effect or successor act thereto), then Holdings shall, or shall cause each Loan Party to (i) maintain, or cause to be maintained, with insurance companies that Holdings believes (in the good faith judgment of the management of Holdings) are financially sound and responsible at the time the relevant coverage is placed or renewed, flood insurance in an amount and otherwise sufficient to comply with the Flood Insurance Laws and (ii) furnish to the Lenders information presented in reasonable detail as to the flood insurance so carried, including (A) copies of the applicable Loan Party’s application for a flood insurance policy plus proof or premium payment, (B) a declaration page confirming that flood insurance has been issued or (C) such other evidence of flood insurance, in an amount equal to at least the amount required by the Flood Laws and otherwise including terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

Section 5.08.       Books and Records; Inspection and Audit Rights. Holdings will, and will cause each of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain proper books of record and account in which entries that are full, true and correct in all material respects and are in conformity with GAAP (or applicable local standards) consistently applied shall be made of all material financial transactions and matters involving the assets and business of Holdings or the Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be. Holdings will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, upon reasonable prior notice, to visit and inspect its tangible properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and to discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested; provided that (i) such representatives shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid interruption of the normal business operations of Holdings and its Subsidiaries and (ii) excluding any such visits and inspections during the continuation of an Event of Default, only the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders may exercise visitation and inspection rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section 5.08 and the Administrative Agent shall not exercise such rights more often than one time during any calendar year absent the existence of an Event of Default and such time shall be at each Co-Borrower’s expense; provided further that (a) when an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (or any of their respective representatives or independent contractors) may do any of the foregoing at the expense of Holdings at any time during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice and (b) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall give Holdings and each Co-Borrower the

- 167 -

opportunity to participate in any discussions with Holdings’ or each Co-Borrower’s independent public accountants.

Section 5.09.       Compliance with Laws. Each of Holdings and the Co-Borrowers will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, comply with all Requirements of Law (including ERISA and other applicable pension laws, Environmental Laws (including conducting any clean-up or other remedial action required by and in accordance with Environmental Law) and the USA PATRIOT Act) with respect to it, its property and operations, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.10.       Use of Proceeds and Letters of Credit. The applicable Co-Borrower will use the proceeds of the Term Loans, the Revolving Loans, the Swingline Loans and the Letters of Credit solely in accordance with Section 3.16 and, in any case, not in violation of Section 3.15 or Section 5.17.

Section 5.11.       Additional Subsidiaries. (a) If (i) any additional Restricted Subsidiary that is not an Excluded Subsidiary is formed or acquired after the Effective Date, (ii) any Restricted Subsidiary ceases to be an Excluded Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary that becomes a Material Subsidiary, which shall be subject to Section 5.11(b)) or (iii) Holdings, at its option, elects to cause a Domestic Subsidiary, or to the extent reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, a Foreign Subsidiary that is a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary to become a Subsidiary Loan Party, then Holdings will, within 60 days (or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) after (x) such newly formed or acquired Restricted Subsidiary is formed or acquired, (y) such Restricted Subsidiary ceases to be an Excluded Subsidiary or (z) Holdings has made such election, notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and will cause such Restricted Subsidiary to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary and with respect to any Equity Interest in or Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary owned by or on behalf of any Loan Party within 60 days after such notice (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree). Holdings and Finance shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent a completed Perfection Certificate (or supplement thereof) with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary signed by a Responsible Officer, together with all attachments contemplated thereby concurrently with the satisfaction of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary.

(b)       Within 60 days (or such longer period as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree) after Holdings identifies any new Material Subsidiary pursuant to Section 5.03(b), all actions (if any) required to be taken with respect to such Subsidiary in order to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement (including the requirements set forth in the proviso to clause (d) of the last paragraph of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary) shall have been taken with respect to such Subsidiary, to the extent not already satisfied pursuant to Section 5.11(a).

(c)       Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Material Real Property would be required to be mortgaged pursuant to this Section 5.11, the applicable Loan Party shall be required to comply with the “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” as it relates to such

- 168 -

Material Real Property within 90 days following the later of the date such Loan Party becomes a Loan Party and the acquisition of such Material Real Property, or such longer time period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided that if Holdings has used its reasonable efforts to provide the documentation reasonably requested by the Lenders to obtain a “Life-of-Loan” Federal Emergency Management Agency standard flood hazard determination and the flood insurance compliance items listed in clause (e)(iii) of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirements”, in the event that any such flood insurance diligence is not completed by the Lenders by the date by which the applicable Loan Party is required to execute and deliver a Mortgage, such Loan Party shall instead execute and deliver such Mortgage within three Business Days of written receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that such flood insurance diligence is complete (or such longer time period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion).

Section 5.12.       Further Assurances. (a) Subject to (i) the provisos to Section 4.01(f) solely with respect to the Effective Date and (ii) the last paragraph of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement”, Holdings will, and will cause each Loan Party to, execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents), that may be required under any applicable law and that the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request, to cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be and remain satisfied, all at the expense of the Loan Parties.

(b)       If, after the Effective Date, any material assets (other than Excluded Assets), including any Material Real Property, are acquired by a Loan Party or are held by any Subsidiary on or after the time it becomes a Loan Party pursuant to Section 5.11 (other than assets constituting Collateral under a Security Document that become subject to the Lien created by such Security Document upon acquisition thereof or constituting Excluded Assets or Excluded Real Property), Holdings will notify the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders) thereof, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, Holdings will cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Secured Obligations and will take and cause the other Loan Parties to take, such actions as shall be necessary and reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to grant and perfect such Liens, including actions described in paragraph (a) of this Section 5.12 and as required pursuant to the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement, all at the expense of the Loan Parties and subject to the last paragraph of the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement.” In the event any Material Real Property is required to be mortgaged pursuant to this Section 5.12(b), the applicable Loan Party shall be required to comply with the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and paragraph (a) of this Section 5.12 within 90 days following the acquisition of such Material Real Property or such longer time period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided that if Holdings or the applicable Loan Party has used its reasonable efforts to provide the documentation reasonably requested by the Lenders to obtain a “Life-of-Loan” Federal Emergency Management Agency standard flood hazard determination and the flood insurance compliance items listed in clause (e)(iii) of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirements”, in the event that any such flood insurance diligence is not completed by the Lenders by the date by which the applicable Loan Party is required to execute and deliver a Mortgage, such Loan Party shall instead execute and deliver such Mortgage within three Business Days of written receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent

- 169 -

that such flood insurance diligence is complete (or such longer time period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion).

Section 5.13.       Designation of Subsidiaries. Holdings may at any time after the Effective Date designate any Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Co-Borrower) as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that immediately after such designation on a Pro Forma Basis, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Effective Date shall constitute an Investment by Holdings therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the fair market value of Holdings or its Restricted Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment therein as of such date. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute (i) the incurrence at the time of designation of any Investment, Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time and (ii) a return on any Investment by Holdings or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary in Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the fair market value at the date of such designation of Holdings’ or its Restricted Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment in such Subsidiary.

Section 5.14.       Certain Post-Closing Obligations. As promptly as practicable, and in any event within the time periods after the Effective Date specified in Schedule 5.14 or such later date as the Administrative Agent agrees to in writing, including to reasonably accommodate circumstances unforeseen on the Effective Date, Holdings shall, and shall cause each other Loan Party to, deliver the documents or take the actions specified on Schedule 5.14 that would have been required to be delivered or taken on the Effective Date, in each case except to the extent otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to its authority as set forth in the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement.”

Section 5.15.       Maintenance of Rating of the Co-Borrower and the Facilities. Holdings shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain (i) a corporate credit rating (but not any particular rating) from S&P and a corporate family rating (but not any particular rating) from Moody’s, in each case in respect of Holdings and (ii) a public rating (but not any particular rating) in respect of the Term Loans from each of S&P and Moody’s.

Section 5.16.       Lines of Business. Holdings and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will not fundamentally and substantively alter the character of their business, taken as a whole, from the business conducted by them on the Effective Date and other business activities which are extensions thereof or otherwise incidental, reasonably related or ancillary to any of the foregoing.

Section 5.17.       Anti-Corruption Laws. None of Holdings, any Co-Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary will directly or knowingly indirectly use the proceeds hereunder, or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Person, for the purpose of (i) funding the activities of any Person that, at the time of such funding, is a Person with whom dealings are prohibited by any Sanctions or (ii) funding, financing or facilitating any activity in a Sanctioned Country or in any other manner, in each case except to the extent permitted for a Person required to comply with Sanctions. None of Holdings, any Co-Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary will directly or, to their knowledge, indirectly, use the proceeds hereunder in furtherance of an

- 170 -

offer, promise to pay or authorization for the payment or giving of money or anything else of value to any Person in violation of the Anti-Corruption Laws.

Section 5.18.       Swiss Non-Bank Rules. Swissco shall ensure that at all times it is in compliance with the Swiss Non-Bank Rules; provided that Swissco shall not be in breach of this Section 5.18 if the Swiss Non-Bank Rules have been breached solely by reason of (a) a failure by one or more Lenders to comply with their respective obligations under Section 9.04(b) or Section 9.04(c) or (b) a Lender ceasing to be a Qualifying Bank other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or treaty, or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority.

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to Holdings or any Co-Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of this Section 7.01), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders (or, in the case of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(d)(ii) after giving effect to the proviso thereto, the Required Revolving Lenders) shall, by notice to Holdings or any Co-Borrower, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), (iii) demand that the Co-Borrowers deposit cash collateral with the Administrative Agent as contemplated by Section 2.05(j) in the aggregate LC Exposure of all outstanding Letters of Credit (and, in the case of clause (ii) or clause (iii), as applicable, thereupon the principal of the Loans and the LC Exposure of all Letters of Credit so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of each Co-Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Co-Borrower) and (iv) exercise on behalf of itself, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks all rights and remedies, including the right to enforce all security interests in Collateral created by the Security Documents, available to it, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks under the Loan Documents and applicable law, in each case without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by Holdings and each Co-Borrower; and in case of any event with respect to Holdings or any Co-Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of this Section 7.01, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of each Co-Borrower accrued hereunder, shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, and the deposit of cash collateral shall immediately and automatically become due, in each case without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Co-Borrower.

- 196 -

For the avoidance of doubt, (i) any “going concern” or like qualification or exception in connection with (x) an upcoming maturity date of any Indebtedness under this Agreement occurring within one year from the time such opinion is delivered or (y) any actual failure to satisfy a financial maintenance covenant under this Agreement or any potential inability to satisfy a financial maintenance covenant under this Agreement on a future date or in a future period, in each case in connection with financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) shall not be a Default or Event of Default and (ii) any Default or Event of Default which may have occurred shall cease to exist upon compliance with such requirement, including with respect to an Event of Default pursuant to (x) Section 7.01(a) or Section 7.01(b) upon payment of any overdue amounts and (y) the failure to timely meet any delivery requirements under the Loan Documents, upon any delivery otherwise in compliance with such requirement.

Section 7.02.       Right to Cure. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.01, in the event that Holdings and the Co-Borrowers fail to comply with the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant (if applicable) as of the last day of any applicable fiscal quarter of Holdings, at any time after the beginning of such fiscal quarter (but, in any event, after the Effective Date) until the expiration of the tenth Business Day subsequent to the date on which the financial statements with respect to such fiscal quarter (or the fiscal year ended on the last day of such fiscal quarter) are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b), as applicable, Holdings shall have the right to issue Qualified Equity Interests for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions to the capital of Holdings as cash common equity or other Qualified Equity Interests (collectively, the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by Holdings of the Net Proceeds of such issuance (the “Cure Amount”) pursuant to the exercise by Holdings of such Cure Right, the Financial Performance Covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustment:

(i)        Consolidated EBITDA shall be increased with respect to such applicable fiscal quarter and any four fiscal quarter period that contains such fiscal quarter, solely for the purpose of measuring the Financial Performance Covenant and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; and

(ii)       if, after giving effect to the foregoing pro forma adjustment (without giving effect to any repayment of any Indebtedness with any portion of the Cure Amount or any portion of the Cure Amount on the balance sheet of Holdings and the Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, with respect to such fiscal quarter only), Holdings shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant, Holdings shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of the Financial Performance Covenant that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement;

provided that Holdings shall have notified the Administrative Agent of the exercise of such Cure Right within five Business Days of the issuance of the relevant Qualified Equity Interests for cash or the receipt of the cash contributions by Holdings.

- 197 -

(b)       Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four consecutive fiscal quarter period of Holdings there shall be at least two (2) fiscal quarters in which the Cure Right is not exercised, (ii) during the term of this Agreement, the Cure Right shall not be exercised more than five (5) times and (iii) for purposes of this Section 7.02, the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required for purposes of complying with the Financial Performance Covenant and any amounts in excess thereof shall not be deemed to be a Cure Amount. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Cure Amount received pursuant to any exercise of the Cure Right shall be disregarded for purposes of determining any available basket under Article VI of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no Cure Amounts shall be applied to reduce the Indebtedness of Holdings and the Restricted Subsidiaries on a Pro Forma Basis for purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Performance Covenants for the fiscal quarter in which such Cure Right was made (provided that to the extent such Cure Amounts are applied to prepay Indebtedness, such reduction may be given effect in determining compliance with the Financial Performance Covenant for fiscal quarters after the fiscal quarter in which such Cure Right was made) and there shall not have been a breach of any covenant under Article VI of this Agreement solely by reason of having no longer included such Cure Amount in any basket during the relevant period.

Section 7.03.       Application of Proceeds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 7.01, any amounts received on account of the Secured Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 4.02 of the Collateral Agreement and/or the similar provisions in the other Security Documents.

ARTICLE VIII

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 8.01.       Appointment and Authority. (a) Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints JPM to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties, and none of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

(b)       The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “Collateral Agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and such Issuing Bank for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Collateral Agent and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all

- 198 -

provisions of this Article VIII and Article IX (including Section 9.03 as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

(c)       By accepting the benefits of the Collateral and the Guarantees provided under the Loan Documents, each Secured Party that is a party to any Swap Agreement the obligations under which constitute Secured Swap Obligations (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each Existing Swap Dealer, shall be deemed to have appointed and authorized each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to serve as the administrative agent and the collateral agent, respectively, under the Loan Documents and to have agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder.

Section 8.02.       Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, own securities of, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 8.03.       Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

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

(b)       shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law;

(c)       shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, any Co-Borrower or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;

(d)       shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary,

- 199 -

under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 and in the last paragraph of Section 7.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment; provided that the Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by Holdings, a Co-Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank;

(e)       shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent;

(f)       shall not be liable for, or be responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered by Holdings, any Co-Borrower, any other Subsidiary, any Lender or any Issuing Bank as a result of, any determination of the Initial Revolving Exposure or the Revolving Exposure or the component amounts thereof or any portion thereof attributable to any Lender or any Issuing Bank or of the Effective Yield or the Dollar Equivalent; and

(g)       shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lender (and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender).

Section 8.04.       Reliance by 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 (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Holdings or the Co-Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall

- 200 -

not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 8.05.       Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

Section 8.06.       Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and each Co-Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with each Co-Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed unless a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such 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 such resignation shall nevertheless be effective and the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be an Approved Bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such Approved Bank (the date upon which the retiring Administrative Agent is replaced, the “Resignation Effective Date”); provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify each Co-Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice.

If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender, the Required Lenders and Holdings may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, with the consent of each Co Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

With effect from the Resignation Effective Date (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except (i) that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and (ii) with respect to any outstanding payment obligations under this Agreement of the retiring Administrative Agent) and (b) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to

- 201 -

each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as set forth in this Section. The fees payable by Holdings and the Co-Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Co-Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.04 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 the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Section 8.07.       Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and funding its Loans on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption, Incremental Facility Amendment or Refinancing Amendment pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date.

No Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent) shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Secured Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, and the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Secured Party or Secured Parties in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the

- 202 -

Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties at such sale or other disposition. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions.

Section 8.08.       No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, neither any Joint Lead Arrangers nor any person named on the cover page hereof as a Joint Lead Arranger shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder.

Section 8.09.       Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or outstanding Letter of Credit shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Co-Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a)       to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, Letter of Credit outstandings and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent under Section 2.12 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b)       to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, interim receiver, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 2.12 and 9.03.

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

Section 8.10.       No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such

- 203 -

Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article VII for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuing Banks; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.18), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided further that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article VII and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.18, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

Section 8.11.       Withholding Taxes. Without limiting the generality of Section 2.17, to the extent required by any applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent may deduct or withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.17, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, within 10 days after written demand therefor, any and all Taxes attributable to such Lender and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.11. For the avoidance of doubt, a “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 8.11, include any Issuing Bank and the

- 204 -

Swingline Lender. The agreements in this Section 8.11 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE CO-BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM.

(d)       Change of Address, Etc. Each of Holdings, each Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender may change its address, electronic mail address, fax or telephone number for notices and other communications or website hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, fax or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to each Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, fax number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender.

- 206 -

(e)       Reliance by Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Co-Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of the foregoing from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Holdings or any Restricted Subsidiary in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

(f)       Holdings and each Co-Borrower agree to notify the Administrative Agent of any update to the list of Disqualified Lenders in writing at the following address: JPMDQ_Contact@jpmorgan.com.

Section 9.02.       Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power under this Agreement or any 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, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or 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 9.02, 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 the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Co-Borrower or Holdings in any case shall entitle any Co-Borrower or Holdings to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. For the avoidance of doubt, only the consent of all Revolving Lenders shall be necessary to remove or replace any Co-Borrower with respect to the Revolving Loans.

(b)       Except as provided in Section 2.14, Section 2.20 with respect to any Incremental Facility Amendment, Section 2.21 with respect to any Refinancing Amendment, Section 2.24 with respect to any Permitted Amendment or Section 9.02(c), neither this Agreement or 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 each of Holdings, each Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent (to the extent that such waiver, amendment or modification does not affect the rights, duties, privileges or obligations of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall execute such waiver, amendment or other modification to the extent approved by the Required Lenders) and the

- 207 -

Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender), (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the reimbursement obligations of any Co-Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time (it being understood that a waiver of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute a reduction or forgiveness of principal) or reduce the rate of interest on any of the foregoing, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that any change to the definition of Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Senior Secured First Lien Net Leverage Ratio or Interest Coverage Ratio or in the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction of interest or fees); provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of each Co-Borrower to pay default interest pursuant to Section 2.13(c), (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan, or the date of any scheduled amortization payment of the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.10 or the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment, the applicable Refinancing Amendment or the applicable Loan Modification Agreement, or the reimbursement date with respect to any LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment (it being understood that a waiver of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension of any maturity date, date of any scheduled amortization payment or date for payment of interest or fees), without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (iv) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided that any such change which is in favor of a Class of Lenders holding Loans maturing after the maturity of other Classes of Lenders (and only takes effect after the maturity of such other Classes of Loans or Commitments) will require the written consent of the Required Lenders with respect to each Class directly and adversely affected thereby, (v) change Section 2.18(b) or Section 2.18(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender, or change the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”, “Required Revolving 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), (vi) release all or substantially all the value of the Guarantees under any of the Guarantee Agreements (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents) without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), (vii) release all or substantially all the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents, without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents or (viii) change any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to, or the Collateral of, Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any Class differently than those holdings Loans or Commitments of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders representing a Majority

- 208 -

in Interest of each affected Class; provided further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, (B) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by Holdings, each Co-Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, and such amendment shall be deemed approved by the Lenders if the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice of such amendment and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment and (C) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of a particular Class (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, each Co-Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section 9.02 if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, Holdings and each Co-Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Lenders prior to such inclusion, (B) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Co-Borrowers to effect an amendment pursuant to Section 2.14(b) of this Agreement, and (C) guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Co-Borrowers without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities or defects, (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (iv) to integrate any Incremental Facility or Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in a manner consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(c)       In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all directly and adversely affected Lenders, if the consent of the Required Lenders (and, to the extent any Proposed Change requires the consent of Lenders holding Loans of any Class pursuant to clause (iv), (v) or (viii) of paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, the consent of a Majority in Interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of such Class) to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02 being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Lender that is acting as

- 209 -

Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, each Co-Borrower may, at its option and at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that, with respect to this clause (ii), (A) each Co-Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, of each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender) to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (B) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding par principal amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i)) from the Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees (other than any fee payable pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i)) or the Co-Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts)), (C) unless waived, the Co-Borrowers or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b), (D) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law and (E) such Eligible Assignee shall have given its consent to such Proposed Change and, as a result of such assignment and delegation and any contemporaneous assignments and delegations and consents, such Proposed Change can be effected. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this Section 9.04(c) may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Eligible Assignees and that the Non-Consenting Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto, and each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 9.04 on behalf of a Non-Consenting Lender and any such documentation so executed by the Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 9.04.

(d)       Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Term Commitments, Revolving Commitments, Term Loans and Revolving Exposure of any Lender that is at the time a Defaulting Lender shall not have any voting or approval rights under the Loan Documents and shall be excluded in determining whether all Lenders (or all Lenders of a Class), all affected Lenders (or all affected Lenders of a Class), a Majority in Interest of Lenders of any Class or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 9.02); provided that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

(e)       Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, each Affiliated Lender (other than an Affiliated Debt Fund) hereby agrees that, for purposes of any plan of reorganization, such Affiliated Lender will be deemed to have voted in the same proportion as non-Affiliated Lenders voting on such matter; provided that such Affiliated Lender shall be entitled to vote in accordance with its sole discretion in connection with any plan

- 210 -

of reorganization (a) to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat any Secured Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a manner that is less favorable in any material respect to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar Secured Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of a Co-Borrower, (b) that would deprive such Affiliated Lender of its pro rata share of any payments to which it is entitled or (c) if such plan of reorganization requires the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender.

(f)       Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, only the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders shall be necessary to (1) waive or consent to a waiver of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(d)(ii) or waive or amend the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and Section 4.02 may not be waived or amended in a manner that affects the making of any Revolving Borrowing without the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders), (2) modify or amend Section 6.11 (and Section 6.11 may not be modified or amended without the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders) or Section 7.02 (including, in each case, the related definitions, solely to the extent such definitions are used in such Sections (but not otherwise)) or this sentence or (3) increase or decrease the rate of interest or any fees payable with respect to the Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans.

(g)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended by the Administrative Agent and the Co-Borrowers (without further Lender approval or voting requirements) to the extent necessary or appropriate to provide for the administrative and operational provisions applicable to any Alternative Currency (other than Euro), in each case as are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the trade date specified in the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment or, if no trade date is so specified, as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall, in the case of Revolving Loans, not be less than $2,500,000 (and integral multiples thereof) or, in the case of a Term Loan, $500,000 (and integral multiples thereof), unless each Co-Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (in each case, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no such consent of any Co-Borrower shall be required if a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause (B) shall not be construed to prohibit assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans, (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, and, in each case, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect to waive or reduce such processing and recordation fee; provided further that any such Assignment and Assumption shall include a representation by the assignee that the assignee is not a Disqualified Lender; provided further that assignments made pursuant to Section 2.19(b) or Section 9.02(c) shall not require the signature of the assigning Lender to become effective and (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any tax forms required by Section 2.17(e) and an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain Material Non-Public Information about the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

(iii)       Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of (and subject to the obligations and limitations of) Section 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and to any fees payable hereunder that have accrued for such Lender’s account but have not yet been paid); provided that, except to the extent otherwise agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from the Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such

- 216 -

Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c)(i) of this Section 9.04.

(iv)       The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Co-Borrowers, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal and interest amounts of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender is an Affiliated Lender, nor shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to monitor the aggregate amount of the Loans held by Affiliated Lenders. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Holdings, the Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by each Co-Borrower, and by the Issuing Banks and any Lender (in each case as to its own interest, but not the interest of any other Issuing Bank or Lender), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v)       Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Assumption posted on the Platform) executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 2.17(e) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to accept such Assignment and Assumption or so record the information contained therein if the Administrative Agent reasonably believes that such Assignment and Assumption lacks any written consent required by this Section or is otherwise not in proper form, it being acknowledged that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation (and shall incur no liability) with respect to obtaining (or confirming the receipt) of any such written consent or with respect to the form of (or any defect in) such Assignment and Assumption, any such duty and obligation being solely with the assigning Lender and the assignee. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph and, following such recording, unless otherwise determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be made in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, which determination may be conditioned on the consent of the assigning Lender and the assignee), shall be effective notwithstanding any defect in the Assignment and Assumption relating thereto. Each assigning Lender and the assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the Administrative Agent that all written consents required by this Section with respect thereto (other than the consent of the Administrative Agent) have been obtained and that such Assignment and Assumption is otherwise duly completed and in proper form, and each assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and

- 217 -

Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee.

(vi)       The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

(c)      (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other Persons (other than to a Person that is not an Eligible Assignee) (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 (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) Holdings, the Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) in the case of the sale of a participation in a Revolving Commitment or in a Loan to Swissco, each Participant shall have represented that it is a Qualifying Bank or, if not, the prior written consent of Swissco shall be obtained (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, but it being understood that such consent will be deemed reasonably withheld if such sale would result in a breach of the Swiss Ten Non-Bank Rule). Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and any other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (vi) and (vii) of the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that directly and adversely affects such Participant. Holdings and each Co-Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the obligations and limitations thereof and Section 2.19, it being understood that any tax forms required by Section 2.17(e) shall be provided solely to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.18 and 2.19 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at any Co-Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.

- 218 -

(ii)       Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of each Co-Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the parties hereto shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of its Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary in connection with a Tax audit or other proceeding to establish that any Loan or other obligation under the Loan Documents is in registered form for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(d)       Any Lender may, without the consent of any Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, 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 any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other “central” bank, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided 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 hereto.

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

(f)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its Term Loans (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any Revolving Commitments or Revolving Exposure) to an Affiliated Lender subject to the following limitations:

- 219 -

(i)        Affiliated Lenders (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) will not receive information provided solely to Lenders by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and will not be permitted to attend or participate in meetings attended solely by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, other than the right to receives notices of Borrowings, notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II;

(ii)       the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans assigned to or purchased by Affiliated Lenders may not exceed 50.0% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans of all Lenders outstanding at the time of assignment or purchase;

(iii)       for purposes of any amendment, waiver or modification of any Loan Document (including such modifications pursuant to Section 9.02), or, subject to Section 9.02(d), any plan of reorganization pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, that in either case does not require the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender or does not adversely affect such Affiliated Lender in any material respect as compared to other Lenders, or that would not deprive such Affiliated Lender of its pro rata share of any payments to which it is entitled, Affiliated Lenders will be deemed to have voted in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders voting on such matter; and each Affiliated Lender hereby acknowledges, agrees and consents that if, for any reason, its vote to accept or reject any plan pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code is not deemed to have been so voted, then such vote will be (x) deemed not to be in good faith and (y) “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code such that the vote is not counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code; provided that Affiliated Debt Funds will not be subject to such voting limitations and will be entitled to vote as any other Lender; provided further that Affiliated Debt Funds may not account for more than 49.9% of the “Required Lenders” in any Required Lender vote;

(iv)       Affiliated Lenders shall clearly identify themselves as an Affiliated Lender in the loan assignment documentation. In no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any lender is an Affiliated Lender or Affiliated Debt Fund nor shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to monitor the number of Affiliated Lenders or Affiliated Debt Funds or the aggregate amount of Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders or Affiliated Debt Funds; and

(v)       each Lender making such assignment to such Affiliated Lender acknowledges and agrees that, in connection with such assignment, (1) such Affiliated Lender then may have, and later may come into possession of Material Non-Public Information, (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to enter into such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Material Non-Public Information and (3) none of Holdings, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, any claims such Lender may have against Holdings, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates, under

- 220 -

applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Material Non-Public Information. Each Lender entering into such an assignment further acknowledges that the Material Non-Public Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

(g)       Any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its Term Loans (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any Revolving Commitments or Revolving Exposure) to Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, through (x) Dutch auctions or other offers to purchase open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with procedures of the type described in Section 2.11(a)(ii) or other customary procedures acceptable to the Administrative Agent and/or (y) open market purchases on a non-pro rata basis; provided that (i) none of the Co-Borrowers shall make any Borrowing of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans to fund such assignment, (ii) any Term Loans that are so assigned will be automatically and irrevocably cancelled and the aggregate principal amount of the tranches and installments of the relevant Term Loans then outstanding shall be reduced by an amount equal to the principal amount of such Term Loans, (iii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (iv) each Lender making such assignment to Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acknowledges and agrees that, in connection with such assignment, (1) Holdings or its Subsidiaries then may have, and later may come into possession of, Material Non-Public Information, (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to enter into such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Material Non-Public Information and (3) none of Holdings, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, any claims such Lender may have against Holdings, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Material Non-Public Information. Each Lender entering into such an assignment further acknowledges that the Material Non-Public Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

(h)       Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment may be made or participation sold to a Disqualified Lender without the prior written consent of each Co-Borrower; provided that, upon inquiry by any Lender to the Administrative Agent as to whether a specified potential assignee or prospective participant is on the list of Disqualified Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to disclose to such Lender whether such specific potential assignee or prospective participant is on the list of Disqualified Lenders; provided further that inclusion on the list of Disqualified Lenders shall not apply retroactively to disqualify any Persons that have previously acquired an assignment or participation in the Loan if such Person was not included on the list of Disqualified Lenders at the time of such assignment or participation. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, if any Lender was a Disqualified Lender at the time of the assignment of any Loans or Commitments to such Lender, following written notice from each Co-Borrower to such Lender and the Administrative Agent and otherwise in accordance with Section 2.19(b), as applicable: (1) such Lender shall promptly assign all Loans and Commitments held by such Lender to an Eligible Assignee; provided that (A) the Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to the Co-Borrowers, such Lender or any other Person to find such a replacement Lender, (B) none of the Co-Borrowers shall have any obligation to such Disqualified Lender or any other Person to find such a

- 221 -

replacement Lender or accept or consent to any such assignment to itself or any other Person subject to each Co-Borrower’s consent in accordance with Section 9.04(b)(i) and (C) the assignment of such Loans and/or Commitments, as the case may be, shall be at par plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees; (2) such Lender shall not have any voting or approval rights under the Loan Documents and shall be excluded in determining whether all Lenders (or all Lenders of any Class), all affected Lenders (or all affected Lenders of any Class), a Majority in Interest of Lenders of any Class or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that (x) the Commitment of any Disqualified Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects any Disqualified Lender adversely and in a manner that is disproportionate to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Disqualified Lender; and (3) no Disqualified Lender is entitled to receive information provided solely to Lenders by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or will be permitted to attend or participate in meetings attended solely by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, other than the right to receive notices or Borrowings, notices or prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II. The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and Holdings and the Co-Borrowers hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Lenders provided by the Investor or any Co-Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time on the Platform, including that portion of the Platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the list of Disqualified Lenders and any updates thereto to each Lender requesting the same.

(i)       Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Affiliated Lender shall be permitted, at its option, to contribute any Term Loans so assigned to such Affiliated Lender pursuant to this Section 9.04 to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of cancellation, which contribution may be made (including, with each Co-Borrower’s consent, to a Co-Borrower, whether through Holdings or otherwise), in exchange for Qualified Equity Interests of Holdings or a Co-Borrower or Indebtedness of a Co-Borrower to the extent such Indebtedness is permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 6.01 at such time.

Section 9.05.         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 any 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, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank 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 until the Termination Date. The provisions of Section 2.15, 2.16, 2.17, 8.11 and 9.03 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 and all other amounts payable hereunder, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in the event that, in connection with the refinancing or repayment in full of the credit facilities provided for herein, an Issuing Bank shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a written consent to

- 222 -

the release of the Revolving Lenders from their obligations hereunder with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (whether as a result of the obligations of each Co-Borrower (and any other account party) in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with such Issuing Bank or being supported by a letter of credit that names such Issuing Bank as the beneficiary thereunder, or otherwise pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank), then from and after such time such Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 2.05(e) or (f).

Section 9.06.       Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 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 Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the syndication of the Loans and Commitments 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. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.07.       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. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.07, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 9.08.       Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any of and all the obligations of such Loan Party then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender or Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all

- 223 -

amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Secured Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The applicable Lender and applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the applicable Loan Party and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section 9.08. The rights of each Lender and each Issuing Bank under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or such Issuing Bank may have. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount set off from any Loan Party (other than any Co-Borrower) shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Loan Party (other than any Co-Borrower).

Section 9.09.       Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

(b)       Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, in each case sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City 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 shall 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 any Loan Document shall affect any right that any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding to enforce any award or judgment or exercise any rights under the Security Documents against any Collateral in any other forum in which Collateral is located.

(c)       Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.09. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d)       Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in any 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.       WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,

- 224 -

ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (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 9.10.

Section 9.12.       Confidentiality. (a) Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates (other than Excluded Affiliates) and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, trustees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other agents and advisors and any numbering, administration or settlement service providers (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential and any failure of such Persons acting on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Bank or the relevant Lender to comply with this Section 9.12 shall constitute a breach of this Section 9.12 by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the relevant Lender, as applicable), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or self-regulatory authority, required by applicable law or by any subpoena or similar legal process or in connection with the exercise of remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; provided that (x) solely to the extent permitted by law and other than in connection with routine audits and reviews by regulatory and self-regulatory authorities, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Co-Borrower as promptly as practicable of any such requested or required disclosure in connection with any legal or regulatory proceeding and (y) in the case of clause (ii) only, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such Information is kept confidential in connection with the exercise of such remedies; and provided further that in no event shall any Lender or the Administrative Agent be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by Holdings or any Subsidiary, (iii) to any other party to this Agreement, (iv) subject to an agreement containing confidentiality undertakings substantially similar to those of this Section 9.12, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (it being understood that the list of Disqualified Lenders may be disclosed to any assignee or Participant, or prospective assignee or Participant, in reliance on this clause (iv)(A)), (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement or derivative transaction relating to any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries and its obligations under the Loan Documents or (C) any pledgee referred to in Section 9.04(d), (v) if required by any rating agency; provided that prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall have agreed in writing to maintain the confidentiality of such Information,

- 225 -

(vi) to service providers providing administrative and ministerial services solely in connection with the syndication and administration of the Loan Documents and the facilities (e.g., identities of parties, maturity dates, interest rates, etc.) on a confidential basis, or (vii) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.12, (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Holdings or any Subsidiary, which source is not known by the recipient of such information to be subject to a confidentiality obligation or (z) is independently developed without the use of other Information. For the purposes hereof, “Information” means all information received from or on behalf of Holdings or any Subsidiary relating to Holdings, any Subsidiary or their respective business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdings or any Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of information received from Holdings or any Subsidiary after the Effective Date, 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 9.12 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such information shall be disclosed to a Disqualified Lender that constitutes a Disqualified Lender at the time of such disclosure without each Co-Borrower’s prior written consent.

(b)       EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION (AS DEFINED IN SECTION 9.12(a)) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING HOLDINGS, THE CO-BORROWERS, THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

(c)       ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS FURNISHED BY HOLDINGS, ANY CO-BORROWER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT, WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT HOLDINGS, THE CO-BORROWERS, THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO HOLDINGS, EACH CO-BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

Section 9.13.       USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the USA PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Co-Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is

- 226 -

required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

Section 9.14.       Release of Liens and Guarantees. (a) A Subsidiary Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released, (1) upon the consummation of any transaction or designation permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (including pursuant to a permitted merger with a Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party or a designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary) or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary (other than solely as a result of becoming a Non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary) or (2) upon the request of a Co-Borrower, in connection with a transaction permitted under this Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Wholly Owned Subsidiary; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise. Upon any sale, disposition or other transfer by any Loan Party (other than to Holdings, any Co-Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent from the requisite Lenders hereunder to the release of the security interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released. Upon the release of Holdings or any Subsidiary Loan Party from its Guarantee in compliance with this Agreement, the security interest in any Collateral owned by Holdings or such Subsidiary or Loan Party created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released. Upon the designation of a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with this Agreement, the security interest created by the Security Documents in the Equity Interests of such new Unrestricted Subsidiary shall automatically be released. Upon the Termination Date all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 9.14, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request or to file or register in any office, or to evidence, such termination or release so long as each Co-Borrower or applicable Loan Party shall have provided the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, such certifications or documents as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall reasonably request in order to demonstrate compliance with this Agreement.

(b)       The Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, will, at the Co-Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party or file or register in any office such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to subordinate its Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(iv).

(c)       Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, to provide any release or

- 227 -

evidence of release, termination or subordination contemplated by this Section 9.14. Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority or the Collateral Agent’s authority, as the case may be, to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Loan Party from its obligations under any Loan Document, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.14.

Section 9.15.       No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each of the Co-Borrowers and Holdings acknowledges and agrees that (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Co-Borrowers, Holdings and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each of the Co-Borrowers and Holdings has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate and (C) each of the Co-Borrowers and Holdings is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for any Co-Borrower, Holdings, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person and (B) none of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders has any obligation to any Co-Borrower, Holdings or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Co-Borrowers, Holdings and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to any Co-Borrower, Holdings or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Co-Borrowers and Holdings hereby agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

Section 9.16.       Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Co-Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the obligations hereunder.

- 228 -

Section 9.17.       Intercreditor Agreements. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document: (a) the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Loan Documents and the exercise of any right related to any Collateral shall be subject, in each case, to the terms of the Customary Intercreditor Agreements then in effect, (b) in the event of any conflict between the express terms and provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, on the one hand, and of any Customary Intercreditor Agreements then in effect, on the other hand, the terms and provisions of the relevant Customary Intercreditor Agreements shall control; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall any pledged Collateral include assets to the extent a security interest in such assets would result in an investment in “United States property” by a CFC under Section 956 of the Code or would otherwise result in a material adverse tax consequence to Holdings, Finance, or any other Domestic Subsidiary, as reasonably determined by Holdings in consultation with the Administrative Agent and (ii) in no event shall any CFC, Domestic Foreign Holdco or any direct or indirect Subsidiary of any CFC or Domestic Foreign Holdco be held liable for or guarantee any Secured Obligations of Holdings, Finance, or any other Domestic Subsidiary and (c) each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent to execute any such Customary Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Lender, and such Lender agrees to be bound by the terms thereof.

(b)       Each Secured Party hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent may enter into any intercreditor agreement and/or subordination agreement pursuant to, or contemplated by, the terms of this Agreement (including with respect to Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.01, any applicable Liens on Collateral permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 and, in each case, together with the defined terms referenced therein) on its behalf and agrees to be bound by the terms thereof and, in each case, consents and agrees to the appointment of JPM (or its affiliated designee, representative or agent) on its behalf as collateral agent, respectively, thereunder.

Section 9.18.       Cashless Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by each Co-Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Lender.

Section 9.19.       Judgment Currency. (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in dollars into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction dollars could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b)       The obligations of each party hereto in respect of any sum due to any other party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than dollars, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase dollars with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due

- 229 -

to the Applicable Creditor in dollars, such party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such deficiency. The obligations of the parties contained in this Section 9.19 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

Section 9.20.       Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)       the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b)       the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)        a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii)      a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii)     the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

Section 9.21.       Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. (a) To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States).

(a)       In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will

- 230 -

be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
