Unless any of the Events of Default described in Section 10.1(e) or 10.1(f) shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of Section 2.1(b)(iii) shall apply) and regardless of whether the conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement to the making of a Multicurrency Revolving Loan are then satisfied, each Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall make the proceeds of its Multicurrency Revolving Loan available to the Swing Line Lender at the Payment Office prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date such notice is given.

and upon receipt thereof the Swing Line Lender will deliver to such Multicurrency Revolving Lender a Swing Line Loan Participation Certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.1(b)(iv), no Lender shall be required to make a Multicurrency Revolving Loan to Company for the purpose of refunding a Swing Line Loan pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(ii) above or to purchase a participating interest in a Swing Line Loan pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(iii) if an Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, prior to the making by the Swing Line Lender of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender has received written notice from such Lender specifying that such Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, describing the nature thereof and stating that, as a result thereof, such Lender shall cease to make such Refunded Swing Line Loans and purchase such participating interests, as the case may be; provided, however, that the obligation of such Lender to make such Refunded Swing Line Loans and to purchase such participating interests shall be reinstated upon the earlier to occur of (y) the date upon which such Lender notifies the Swing Line Lender that its prior notice has been withdrawn and (z) the date upon which the Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default specified in such notice no longer is continuing.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.1(b), the Swing Line Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swing Line Loan at any time when any other Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Swing Line Lender has entered into arrangements with Company or such Defaulting Lender which are satisfactory to the Swing Line Lender to eliminate the Swing Line Lenders Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 4.1(b)(iii)) with respect to any such Defaulting Lender, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, arising with respect to such Swing Line Loan.

The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing by Company hereunder shall be not less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount and, if greater, shall be in Minimum Borrowing Multiples (other than Swing Line Loans which may be in any amount over the Minimum Borrowing Amount) above such minimum (or, if less, the then Total Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitment).

As to any Eurocurrency Loan, any Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment by causing a foreign branch or affiliate with reasonable and appropriate capacities to fund such currency and without any increased cost to Company to make or continue such Loan, provided that in such event the funding of that Lenders Loan shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, be considered to be the obligation of or to have been made by that Lender and the obligation of Company to repay that Lenders Loan shall nevertheless be to that Lender and shall be deemed held by that Lender, for the account of such branch or affiliate.

2.5 Notice of Borrowing. Whenever Company desires to make a Borrowing of any Loan (other than a Swing Line Loan) hereunder, Company shall give Administrative Agent at its Notice Address at least one Business Days prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing), given not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) of each Base Rate Loan, and at least three Business Days prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing), given not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), of each Eurocurrency Loan to be made hereunder; provided, however, that a Notice of Borrowing with

respect to Borrowings to be made on the date hereof may, at the discretion of Administrative Agent, be delivered later than the time specified above. Whenever Company desires that the Swing Line Lender make a Swing Line Loan under Section 2.1(b)(i), it shall deliver to Swing Line Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) (or such later time of day as the Swing Line Lender may agree in any instance in its sole discretion) on the date of such Borrowing written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing). Each such notice (each a Notice of Borrowing), which shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.5 hereto, shall be irrevocable, shall be deemed a representation by Company that all conditions precedent to such Borrowing have been satisfied and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing (stated in the relevant currency), (ii) the date of the Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) whether the Loans being made pursuant to such Borrowing are to be Swing Line Loans and, if not, whether such Loans are to be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans and, with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, the Interest Period and Applicable Currency to be applicable thereto (provided that if Company shall have failed to specify the Type, Applicable Currency or Interest Period of such Loans (and shall not have promptly responded to Administrative Agents request for such information), Company shall be deemed to have requested a Eurocurrency Rate Loan in Dollars, with an Interest Period of one month; provided, further, that if the date of such notice is less than three Business Days from the date of such Borrowing, Company shall be deemed to have requested a Base Rate Loan in Dollars). Administrative Agent shall as promptly as practicable give each Lender written or telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing, of such Lenders Pro Rata Share thereof and of the other matters covered by the Notice of Borrowing. Without in any way limiting Company and Companys obligation to confirm in writing any telephonic notice, Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender (in the case of Swing Line Loans) or the respective Facing Agent (in the case of Letters of Credit) may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice believed by Administrative Agent in good faith to be from a Responsible Officer of Company prior to receipt of written confirmation. Administrative Agents records shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on Company with respect to evidence of the time and terms of such telephonic Notice of Borrowing.

2.6 Conversion or Continuation. Company may elect (i) on any Business Day to convert Base Rate Loans or any portion thereof to Eurocurrency Loans, (ii) at the end of any Interest Period with respect thereto, to convert Loans denominated in Dollars that are Eurocurrency Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans or to continue such Eurocurrency Loans or any portion thereof for an additional Interest Period and (iii) at the end of any Interest Period with respect thereto, to continue Eurocurrency Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency for an additional Interest Period; provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans for each Interest Period therefor must be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Minimum Borrowing Amount for Eurocurrency Loans or Minimum Borrowing Multiples in excess thereof. Each continuation of Eurocurrency Loans shall be allocated among the Eurocurrency Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Each such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.6 hereto (a Notice of Conversion or Continuation) and shall be made by giving Administrative Agent at least three Business Days (or one Business Day in the case of a conversion into Base

Rate Loans) prior written notice thereof to the Notice Address given not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) specifying (i) the amount and type of conversion or continuation, (ii) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of Eurocurrency Loans, the Interest Period therefor and (iii) in the case of a conversion, the date of conversion (which date shall be a Business Day). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Loans, and no continuation in whole or in part of Eurocurrency Loans (other than Alternative Currency Loans), shall be permitted at any time at which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. If, within the time period required under the terms of this Section 2.6, Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from Company containing a permitted election to continue any Eurocurrency Loans for an additional Interest Period or to convert any such Eurocurrency Loans, then, upon the expiration of the Interest Period therefor, such Eurocurrency Loans will be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans or, in the case of an Alternative Currency Loan, Eurocurrency Loans in the same Applicable Currency with an Interest Period of one month. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable.

2.7 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time or, as applicable, local time in the financial center for the applicable Alternative Currency (with respect to Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency)) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing (3:30 p.m. New York City time in the case of Swing Line Loans), each Lender will make available its Pro Rata Share of Loans of the Borrowing requested to be made on such date in the Applicable Currency and in immediately available funds, at the Payment Office and Administrative Agent will make available to Company at its Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time or, as applicable, local time in the financial center for the applicable Alternative Currency (with respect to Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency)), or in the case of Swing Line Loans, 3:30 p.m. (New York City time). Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender at least one Business Day prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent such Lenders portion of the Borrowing to be made on such date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Company a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender on the date of Borrowing, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agents demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Company and, if so notified, Company shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from Company interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agent to Company to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the rate for Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, as the case may be, applicable during the period in question; provided, however, that any interest paid to Administrative Agent in respect of such corresponding amount shall be credited

against interest payable by Company to such Lender under Section 3.1 in respect of such corresponding amount. Any amount due hereunder to Administrative Agent from any Lender which is not paid when due shall bear interest payable by such Lender, from the date due until the date paid, at the Federal Funds Rate for amounts in Dollars (or at Administrative Agents cost of funds for amounts in any Alternative Currency) for the first three days after the date such amount is due and thereafter at the Federal Funds Rate (or such cost of funds rate) plus 1%, together with Administrative Agents standard interbank processing fee. Further, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Loans, amounts due with respect to its Letters of Credit (or its participations therein) and any other amounts due to it hereunder first to Administrative Agent to fund any outstanding Loans made available on behalf of such Lender by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.7 until such Loans have been funded (as a result of such assignment or otherwise) and then to fund Loans of all Lenders other than such Lender until each Lender has outstanding Loans equal to its Pro Rata Share of all Loans (as a result of such assignment or otherwise). Such Lender shall not have recourse against Company with respect to any amounts paid to Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the preceding sentence, provided that such Lender shall have full recourse against Company to the extent of the amount of such Loans it has so been deemed to have made. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights which Company may have against the Lender as a result of any failure to fund or other default by such Lender hereunder.

2.8 Utilization of Multicurrency Revolving Commitments in an Alternative Currency.

(a) Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount with respect to any (i) Borrowing of Multicurrency Revolving Loans comprised of Alternative Currency Loans as of the requested date of Borrowing, (ii) outstanding Alternative Currency Loans that are Multicurrency Revolving Loans as of the last Business Day of each month and (iii) outstanding Alternative Currency Loans on the date of any prepayment pursuant to Section 4.3 or 4.4 (each such date under clauses (i) through (iii), a Computation Date). Upon receipt of any Notice of Borrowing of Multicurrency Revolving Loans, Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Multicurrency Revolving Lender thereof and of the amount of such Lenders Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share, of the Borrowing. In the case of a Borrowing comprised of Alternative Currency Loans, such notice will provide the approximate amount of each Lenders Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, and Administrative Agent will, upon the determination of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Borrowing as specified in the Notice of Borrowing, promptly notify each Lender of the exact amount of such Lenders Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing.

(b) Company shall be entitled to request that the Multicurrency Revolving Loans hereunder also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency (other than Dollars), in addition to the currencies specified in the definition of Alternative Currency herein, that in the reasonable opinion of each of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders is at such time freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets and is freely transferable and freely convertible into Dollars (an Agreed Alternative Currency). Company shall deliver

to Administrative Agent any request for designation of an Agreed Alternative Currency in accordance with Section 12.4, to be received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of the date of any Borrowing hereunder proposed to be made in such Agreed Alternative Currency. Upon receipt of any such request Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders thereof and each Multicurrency Revolving Lender will use its best efforts to respond to such request within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof. Each Multicurrency Revolving Lender may grant or accept such request in its sole discretion.

(c) In the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Multicurrency Revolving Loans in an Agreed Alternative Currency, the applicable Multicurrency Revolving Lenders shall be under no obligation to make such Loans in the requested Agreed Alternative Currency as part of such Borrowing if Administrative Agent has received notice from any of the applicable Multicurrency Revolving Lenders by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days prior to the day of such Borrowing that such Lender cannot provide Loans in the requested Agreed Alternative Currency, in which event Administrative Agent will give notice to Company no later than 9:00 a.m. (London time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested date of such Borrowing that the Borrowing in the requested Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given promptly by Administrative Agent to the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders. If Administrative Agent shall have so notified Company that any such Borrowing in a requested Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, Company may, by notice to Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (London time) two (2) Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, withdraw the Notice of Borrowing relating to such requested Borrowing. If Company does so withdraw such Notice of Borrowing, the Borrowing requested therein shall not occur and Administrative Agent will promptly so notify each Multicurrency Revolving Lender. If Company does not so withdraw such Notice of Borrowing, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify each Multicurrency Revolving Lender and such Notice of Borrowing shall be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing that requests a Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the originally requested Borrowing in the Notice of Borrowing; and in such notice by Administrative Agent to each Lender will state such aggregate amount of such Borrowing in Dollars and such Lenders Pro Rata Share thereof.

(d) In the case of a proposed continuation of Multicurrency Revolving Loans denominated in an Agreed Alternative Currency for an additional Interest Period pursuant to Section 2.6, the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders shall not be under any obligation to continue such Loans if Administrative Agent has received notice from any of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders or by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) four (4) Business Days prior to the day of such continuation that such Lender cannot continue to provide Loans in the Agreed Alternative Currency, in which event Administrative Agent will give notice to Company not later than 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the requested date of such continuation that the continuation of such Loans in the Agreed Alternative Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given promptly by Administrative Agent to the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders. If Administrative Agent shall have so notified Company that any such continuation of Loans is not then available, any Notice of Conversion or Continuation/

with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn and such Loans shall be redenominated into Base Rate Loans in Dollars with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Loans. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Company and the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders of any such redenomination and in such notice by Administrative Agent to each Lender will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Alternative Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Lenders Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share thereof.

(e) If at any time an Alternative Currency Loan denominated in a currency other than Euros is outstanding, the relevant Alternative Currency is replaced as the lawful currency of the country that issued such Alternative Currency (the Issuing Country) by the Euro so that all payments are to be made in the Issuing Country in Euros and not in the Alternative Currency previously the lawful currency of such country, then such Alternative Currency Loan shall be automatically converted into an Alternative Currency Loan denominated in Euros in a principal amount equal to the amount of Euros into which the principal amount of such Alternative Currency Loan would be converted pursuant to the EMU Legislation and thereafter no further Alternative Currency Loans will be available in such Alternative Currency, with the basis of accrual of interest, notice requirements and payment offices with respect to such Alternative Currency Loan to be that consistent with the convention and practices in the Euro-zone interbank market for Euro denominated loans.

(f) In each case, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, Company from time to time, at the request of any Lender, shall pay to such Lender the amount of any losses, damages, liabilities, claims, reduction in yield, additional expense, increased cost, reduction in any amount payable, reduction in the effective return of its capital, the decrease or delay in the payment of interest or any other return forgone by such Lender or its affiliates with respect to an Alternative Currency Loan affected by Section 2.8(e) as a result of the tax or currency exchange resulting from the introduction, changeover to or operation of the Euro in any applicable nation or Eurocurrency market.

(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the existence of an Event of Default, upon the request of the Required Lenders, all or any part of any outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans that are Alternative Currency Loans shall be redenominated and converted into Base Rate Loans in Dollars with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Alternative Currency Loans. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Company of any such redenomination and conversion request.

(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Facing Agent applicable to letters of credit generally.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) except as set forth on Schedule 2.10(j), each Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date occurring not later than one year after such Letter of Credits date of issuance, provided that any Letter of Credit may be automatically extendable for periods of up to one year so long as such Letter of Credit provides that the respective Facing Agent retains an option satisfactory to such Facing Agent, to terminate such Letter of Credit within a specified period of time prior to each scheduled extension date; (ii) no Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date occurring later than the Business Day immediately preceding the Revolver Termination Date unless otherwise agreed by the Facing Agent; (iii) each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency and be payable on a sight basis; (iv) the

(d) Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Payments.

(i) Company hereby agrees to reimburse the respective Facing Agent, by making payment to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds in Dollars at the Payment Office, for any payment or disbursement made by such Facing Agent under and in accordance with any Letter of Credit (each such amount so paid or disbursed until reimbursed, an Unpaid Drawing), no later than one Business Day after the date on which Company receives notice of such payment or disbursement (if such Unpaid Drawing was in an Alternative Currency, then in the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Unpaid Drawing), with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such Facing Agent, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but excluding the date such Facing Agent is reimbursed therefor by Company at a rate per annum which shall be the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin; provided, however, that anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) unless Company shall have notified Administrative Agent and the applicable Facing Agent prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following receipt of such notice that the applicable Facing Agent will be reimbursed for the amount of such Unpaid Drawing with funds other than the proceeds of Multicurrency Revolving Loans, Company shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Borrowing to Administrative Agent requesting each Multicurrency Revolving Lender to make Multicurrency Revolving Loans which are Base Rate Loans on the date on which such Unpaid Drawing is honored in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Unpaid Drawing and Administrative Agent shall, if such Notice of Borrowing is deemed given, promptly notify the Lenders thereof and (ii) unless any of the events described in Section 10.1(e) or 10.1(f) shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of Section 2.10(e) shall apply), each such Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall, on the date such drawing is honored, make Multicurrency Revolving Loans which are Base Rate Loans in the amount of its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Dollar Equivalent of such Unpaid Drawing, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Facing Agent for the amount of such Unpaid Drawing; and provided, further, that if for any reason, proceeds of Multicurrency Revolving Loans are not received by the applicable Facing Agent on such date in an amount equal to the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of such drawing, Company shall reimburse the applicable Facing Agent, on the Business Day immediately following the date such drawing is honored, in an amount in Same Day Funds equal to the excess of the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of such drawing over the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Multicurrency Revolving Loans, if any, which are so received, plus accrued interest on such amount at the rate set forth in Section 3.1(a); provided,

however, that to the extent such amounts are not reimbursed prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day following such payment or disbursement, interest shall thereafter accrue on the amounts so paid or disbursed by such Facing Agent (and until reimbursed by Company) at a rate per annum which shall be the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin plus an additional 2% per annum, such interest also to be payable on demand. The respective Facing Agent shall give Company prompt notice of each Drawing under any Letter of Credit, provided that the failure to give any such notice shall in no way affect, impair or diminish Companys obligations hereunder.

(ii) The Obligations of Company under this Section 2.10(d) to reimburse the respective Facing Agent with respect to drawings on Letters of Credit (each, a Drawing) (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which Company may have or have had against any Facing Agent, Agent or any Lender (including in its capacity as issuer of the Letter of Credit or as LC Participant), or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Drawing, the respective Facing Agents only obligation to Company being to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Facing Agent under or in connection with any Letter of Credit if taken or omitted in the absence of a bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not create for such Facing Agent any resulting liability to Company.

(e) Letter of Credit Participations.

(i) Immediately upon the issuance by any Facing Agent of any Letter of Credit, such Facing Agent shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Multicurrency Revolving Lender, other than such Facing Agent (each such Lender, in its capacity under this Section 2.10(e), a LC Participant), and each such LC Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Facing Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Multicurrency Revolving Lenders Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share, in such Letter of Credit, each Drawing made thereunder and the obligations of Company under this Agreement with respect thereto (although Letter of Credit fees shall be payable directly to Administrative Agent for the account of the LC Participant as provided in Section 2.10(g) and the LC Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of the facing fees), and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto. Upon any change in the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders, it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings relating to Letters of Credit, there shall be an automatic adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.10(e) to reflect the new Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the assignor and assignee Lender or of all Lenders with Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, as the case may be.

(ii) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, such Facing Agent shall have no obligation relative to the LC Participants other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Facing Agent under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it if taken or omitted in the absence of a bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not create for such Facing Agent any resulting liability to Company or any Lender.

(f) Draws Upon Letter of Credit; Reimbursement Obligations.

(i) In the event that any Facing Agent makes any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it and Company shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such Facing Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(d), such Facing Agent shall promptly notify Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each LC Participant of such failure, and each such LC Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Facing Agent, the amount of such LC Participants applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of such payment in Dollars or, if in an Alternative Currency, in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds; provided, however, that no LC Participant shall be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by such Facing Agent under a Letter of Credit issued by it as a result of acts or omissions constituting a bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction on the part of such Facing Agent. If Administrative Agent so notifies any LC Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) or, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, 11:00 a.m. (London time), on any Business Day, such LC Participant shall make available to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Facing Agent such LC Participants applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in Same Day Funds. If and to the extent such LC Participant shall not have so made its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the amount of such payment available to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Facing Agent, such LC Participant agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Facing Agent, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent for the account of such Facing Agent at the overnight Federal Funds rate. The failure of any LC Participant to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Facing Agent its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it shall not relieve any other LC Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of such Facing Agent its applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of any payment under any such Letter of Credit on the day required, as specified above, but no LC Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other LC Participant to make available to

Agent for the account of such Facing Agent such other LC Participants applicable Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of any such payment.

(ii) Whenever any Facing Agent receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Facing Agent any payments from the LC Participants pursuant to this Section 2.10(f), such Facing Agent shall pay to Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall pay to each LC Participant which has paid its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share thereof, in Dollars or, if in an Alternative Currency, in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds, an amount equal to such LC Participants Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations.

(iii) The obligations of the LC Participants to make payments to each Facing Agent with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it shall be irrevocable and not subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances (although nothing in this clause (iii) shall constitute a waiver of any claims by an LC Participant against Facing Agent that are determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Facing Agent):

(A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(B) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which Company or any of its Subsidiaries may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), Administrative Agent, any LC Participant, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between Company and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

(C) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect to any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(D) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or

(E) the occurrence or continuance of any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default.

(g) Fees for Letters of Credit.

(i) Facing Agent Fees. Company agrees to pay in Dollars the following amount to the respective Facing Agent with respect to the Letters of Credit issued by it for the account of Company:

(A) with respect to payments made under any Letter of Credit, interest, payable on demand, on the amount paid by such Facing Agent in respect of each such payment from the date of the payments through the date such amount is reimbursed by Company (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of Multicurrency Revolving Loans at a rate determined in accordance with the terms of Section 2.10(d)(i));

(B) with respect to the issuance or amendment of each Letter of Credit and each payment made thereunder, reasonable documentary and processing charges in accordance with such Facing Agents standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be; and

(C) a facing fee equal to one-eighth of 1% per annum of the Stated Amount of outstanding and undrawn LC Obligations payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the Revolver Termination Date and thereafter, on demand together with customary issuance and payment charges, provided that a minimum fee of $500.00 per annum shall be payable per Letter of Credit.

(ii) Participating Lender Fees. Company agrees to pay in Dollars to Administrative Agent for distribution to each participating Lender in respect of all Letters of Credit outstanding such Lenders Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of a commission equal to the then Applicable Eurocurrency Margin for Multicurrency Revolving Loans with respect to the Effective Amount of such outstanding Letters of Credit (the LC Commission), payable in arrears on and through each Quarterly Payment Date, on the Revolver Termination Date and thereafter, on demand. The LC Commission shall be computed on a daily basis from the first

day of issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days.

Promptly upon receipt by the respective Facing Agent or Administrative Agent of any amount described in clause (i)(A) or (ii) of this Section 2.10(g), such Facing Agent or Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender that has reimbursed such Facing Agent in accordance with Section 2.10(d) its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of such amount. Amounts payable under clause (i)(B) and (C) of this Section 2.10(g) shall be paid directly to such Facing Agent.

(h) Indemnification. In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Agreement, Company hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and hold each Facing Agent harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, reasonable out-of-pocket costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees, costs and disbursements) (other than for Taxes, which shall be covered by Section 4.7, and Excluded Taxes) which any Facing Agent may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of the Letters of Credit, or (ii) the failure of any Facing Agent to honor a Drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions herein called Government Acts); provided, however, that no Facing Agent shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment determines that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, obligations, expenses or liabilities have resulted from the bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Facing Agent, and that nothing contained herein shall affect the express contractual obligations of the Facing Agents to Company contained herein. As between Company and each Facing Agent, Company assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued by any Facing Agent by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Facing Agent shall not be responsible: (i) for 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 or any Drawing under such Letters of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for 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) for failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a Drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any Drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (viii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of each Facing Agent, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the

above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of each Facing Agents rights or powers hereunder.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by any Facing Agent under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith and in the absence of a bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not put any Facing Agent under any resulting liability to Company.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Company shall not have any obligation to indemnify any Facing Agent in respect of any liability incurred by such Facing Agent to the extent arising out of the bad faith breach of its material obligations hereunder, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Facing Agent. The right of indemnification in the first paragraph of this Section 2.10(h) shall not prejudice any rights that Company may otherwise have against each Facing Agent with respect to a Letter of Credit issued hereunder.

(i) Increased Costs. If at any time after the date hereof the introduction of or any change in any applicable law, rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (other than any law, rule, regulation, guidelines or request relating to taxes that are the subject matter of Section 4.7) or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by each Facing Agent or such Lender with any request or directive by any such authority (whether or not having the force of law or any change in GAAP), shall either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy, liquidity or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by any Facing Agent or participated in by any Lender, or (ii) impose on any Facing Agent or any Lender any other conditions relating, directly or indirectly, to this Agreement or any Letter of Credit; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Facing Agent or any Lender of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Facing Agent or any Lender hereunder or reduce the rate of return on its capital with respect to Letters of Credit, then, upon demand to Company by the respective Facing Agent or any Lender (a copy of which demand shall be sent by such Facing Agent or such Lender to Administrative Agent), Company shall pay to such Facing Agent or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction in the amount receivable or reduction on the rate of return on its capital; provided that such amounts shall be proportionate to the amounts that such Facing Agent or such Lender charges other borrowers or account parties for such additional costs incurred or reductions suffered on letters of credit, similarly situated to Company in connection with substantially similar facilities as reasonably determined by such Facing Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, acting in good faith Each Facing Agent or any Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(i), will give prompt written notice thereof to Company, which notice shall include a certificate submitted to Company by the respective Facing Agent or such Lender (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such Facing Agent or such Lender to Administrative Agent), setting forth in reasonable

detail the basis for the calculation of such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Facing Agent or such Lender, although failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish Companys obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(i). The certificate required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 2.10(i) shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on Company.

(j) Outstanding Letters of Credit. The letters of credit set forth under the caption Letters of Credit outstanding on the Effective Date on Schedule 2.10(j) annexed hereto and made a part hereof were issued pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement and remain outstanding as of the Initial Borrowing Date (the Outstanding Letters of Credit). Company, each Facing Agent and each of the Lenders hereby agree that on the Initial Borrowing Date, the Outstanding Letters of Credit, for all purposes under this Agreement, shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees to participate in each Outstanding Letter of Credit issued by any Facing Agent in an amount equal to its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of the Stated Amount of such Outstanding Letter of Credit.

(k) Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.10, no Facing Agent shall be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit at a time when any other Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless such Facing Agent has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it to eliminate such Facing Agents risk with respect to any such Defaulting Lenders reimbursement obligations hereunder (after giving effect to Section 4.1(b)(iii)), including by Cash Collateralizing such Defaulting Lenders Commitment Percentage of the liability with respect to such Letter of Credit. Any such Cash Collateral shall be deposited in a separate interest bearing account with Administrative Agent, subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Administrative Agent, as collateral (solely for the benefit of such Facing Agent) for the payment and performance of each Defaulting Lenders Commitment Percentage of outstanding Letters of Credit. Moneys in such account shall be applied by Administrative Agent to reimburse such Facing Agent immediately for each Defaulting Lenders Commitment Percentage of any drawing under any Letter of Credit which has not otherwise been reimbursed by Company or such Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.10.

(l) Loan Documents Control. In the event of a conflict or an inconsistency between the Issuer Documents and the Loan Documents, the Loan Documents shall control.

2.11 Pro Rata Borrowings. Borrowings of Loans under this Agreement shall be loaned by the applicable Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Commitments. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its Commitments hereunder.

ARTICLE III

INTEREST AND FEES

3.1 Interest.

(a) Base Rate Loans. Company agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of Companys Base Rate Loans from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to Company (or, if such Base Rate Loan was converted from a Eurocurrency Loan, the date of such conversion) until the earlier of (i) the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Base Rate Loan or (ii) the conversion of such Base Rate Loan to a Eurocurrency Loan pursuant to Section 2.6 at a rate per annum equal to the relevant Base Rate plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin.

(b) Eurocurrency Loans. Company agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of Companys Eurocurrency Loans from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to Company (or, if such Eurocurrency Loan was converted from a Base Rate Loan, the date of such conversion) until the earlier of (i) the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Eurocurrency Loan or (ii) the conversion of such Eurocurrency Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.6 at a rate per annum equal to the relevant Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin.

(c) Payment of Interest. Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest accruing pursuant to Section 3.1(e) shall be payable from time to time on demand. Interest shall also be payable on all then outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans on the Revolver Termination Date and on all Loans on the date of repayment (including prepayment) thereof (except that voluntary prepayments of Multicurrency Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans made pursuant to Section 4.3 on any day other than a Quarterly Payment Date or the Revolver Termination Date need not be made with accrued interest from the most recent Quarterly Payment Date, provided such accrued interest is paid on the next Quarterly Payment Date) and on the date of maturity (by acceleration or otherwise) of such Loans. During the existence of any Event of Default, interest on any Loan shall be payable on demand.

(d) Notification of Rate. Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans for any Interest Period, shall promptly notify Company and the Lenders thereof. Such determination shall, absent manifest error and subject to Section 3.6, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto.

(e) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified herein, effective on the date 30 days after the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default (other than the failure to pay Obligations when due or the occurrence of an Event of Default under either Section 10.1(e) or Section 10.1(f) hereunder) and for so long thereafter as any such Event of Default shall be continuing, and effective immediately upon any failure to pay any Obligations or any other amounts due under any of the Loan Documents when due or upon

the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 10.1(e) or Section 10.1(f), whether by acceleration or otherwise, the principal balance of each Loan then outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payment on each Loan not paid when due or other amounts then due and payable shall bear interest payable on demand, after as well as before judgment at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.

(f) Maximum Interest. If any interest payment or other charge or fee payable hereunder exceeds the maximum amount then permitted by applicable law, Company shall be obligated to pay the maximum amount then permitted by applicable law and Company shall continue to pay the maximum amount from time to time permitted by applicable law until all such interest payments and other charges and fees otherwise due hereunder (in the absence of such restraint imposed by applicable law) have been paid in full.

3.2 Fees.

(a) Fees. Company shall pay to the Agents and the Lead Arrangers such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing, including in the Syndication & Fee Letter, in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

(b) Commitment Fees. Company shall pay to Administrative Agent for pro rata distribution to each Non-Defaulting Lender having a Multicurrency Revolving Commitment (based on its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share) a commitment fee in Dollars (the Commitment Fee) for the period commencing on the Effective Date to and including the Revolver Termination Date or the earlier termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments (and repayment in full of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans and payment in full or Cash Collateralization of the LC Obligations), computed at a rate equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage per annum on the average daily Total Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitment (with the Available Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of each Lender determined without reduction for such Lenders Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of Swing Line Loans outstanding). Unless otherwise specified, accrued Commitment Fees shall be due and payable in arrears (A) on each Quarterly Payment Date after the Effective Date, (B) on the Revolver Termination Date and (iii) upon any reduction or termination in whole or in part of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments (but only, in the case of a reduction, on the portion of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments then being reduced).

3.3 Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest on all Loans and fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days, provided that interest on all Base Rate Loans when computed using the Eurocurrency Rate and, if denominated in Sterling, Multicurrency Revolving Loans shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. Each determination of an interest rate by Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on Company and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. Administrative Agent shall, at any time and from time to time upon request of Company, deliver to Company a statement showing the quotations used by

Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate applicable to Loans pursuant to this Agreement.

3.4 Interest Periods. At the time it gives any Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation, with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, Company shall elect, by giving Administrative Agent written notice, the interest period (each an Interest Period) which Interest Period shall, at the option of Company, be one, two, three or six months (or, (x) if available to each of the applicable Lenders (as determined by each such applicable Lender in its sole discretion) a twelve month period or (y) in the discretion of Administrative Agent, a period of less than one month); provided that:

(a) all Eurocurrency Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

(b) the initial Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Loan shall commence on the date of such Borrowing of such Eurocurrency Loan (including the date of any conversion thereto from a Loan of a different Type) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Eurocurrency Loan shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period;

(c) if any Interest Period relating to a Eurocurrency Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(d) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(e) at any time when an Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default is then in existence, no Interest Period (a) of more than one month may be selected with respect to any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency and (b) may be selected with respect to any Loan denominated in Dollars;

(f) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Revolver Termination Date.

3.5 Compensation for Funding Losses. Company shall compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurocurrency Loans to the extent not recovered by the Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds and including the compensation payable by such Lender to a Participant) and any loss sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds

(including, without limitation, a return on such liquidation or re-employment that would result in such Lender receiving less than it would have received had such Eurocurrency Loan remained outstanding until the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency Loans, but excluding Excluded Taxes) which such Lender may sustain as a result of:

(a) for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or Administrative Agent) a continuation or a Borrowing of, or conversion from or into, Eurocurrency Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation (whether or not withdrawn);

(b) any payment, prepayment or conversion or continuation of any of its Eurocurrency Loans occurring for any reason whatsoever on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto;

(c) any repayment of any of its Eurocurrency Loans not being made on the date specified in a notice of payment given by Company; or

(d) (i) any other failure by Company to repay Companys Eurocurrency Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or (ii) an election made by Company pursuant to Section 3.7. A written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the incurrence of additional amounts owed such Lender under this Section 3.5 and delivered to Company and Administrative Agent by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 3.5 shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded its relevant Eurocurrency Loan through the purchase of a Eurocurrency deposit bearing interest at the Eurocurrency Rate in an amount equal to the amount of that Loan, having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurocurrency deposit from an offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of that Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its Eurocurrency Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this Section 3.5.

3.6 Increased Costs, Illegality, Etc.

(a) Generally. In the event that any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) below, may be made only by the applicable Agent):

(i) in connection with any request for any Eurocurrency Loan conversions or continuations that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank Eurocurrency market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Eurocurrency Rate; or

(ii) at any time that any Lender shall incur increased costs (except for costs resulting from a change in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender) or reduction in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan because of (x) any Change in Law having general applicability to all comparably situated Lenders within the jurisdiction in which such Lender operates since the date of this Agreement such as, for example, but not limited to: (A) Taxes imposed on or with respect to any Lender or Facing Agent on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (except for (1) changes in the basis of taxation of or rate of tax on, or determined by reference to, Excluded Taxes and (2) taxes and other amounts that are the subject of Section 4.7; provided, further, that if such increased costs are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment to have been imposed as a result of a Lenders gross negligence or willful misconduct, such Lender will promptly repay to Company the amount of any increased costs paid to such Lender by Company under this Section 3.6) or (B) a change in official reserve, liquidity, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirements by any Governmental Authority (but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Eurocurrency Rate) and/or (y) other circumstances since the date of this Agreement affecting such Lender or the interbank Eurocurrency market or the position of such Lender in such market (excluding, however, differences in a Lenders cost of funds from those of Administrative Agent which are solely the result of credit differences between such Lender and Administrative Agent); or

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurocurrency Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any law, directive or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance by any Lender in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the date of this Agreement which materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurocurrency market,

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and, except in the case of clause (i) above, to Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter, (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Eurocurrency Loans shall no longer be available until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by Company with respect to Eurocurrency Loans (other than with respect to conversions to Base Rate Loans) which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be deemed rescinded by Company and, in the case of Alternative Currency Loans, such Loans shall thereafter bear interest at a rate equal to Administrative Agents cost of funds for such Alternative Currency plus the Applicable Eurocurrency Margin, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, Company shall pay to such Lender, upon written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received

or receivable hereunder (any written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the reasonable basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to Company by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto; however the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish Companys obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6; provided that such amounts shall be proportionate to the amounts that such Lender charges other borrowers or account parties for such additional costs incurred or reductions suffered on loans similarly situated to Company in connection with substantially similar facilities as reasonably determined by such Lender acting in good faith; provided, further, that no Lender shall be entitled to receive additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6 for periods occurring prior to the 180th day before the giving of such notice) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, Company shall take one of the actions specified in Section 3.6(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law. In determining such additional amounts pursuant to clause (y) of the immediately preceding sentence, each Lender shall act reasonably and in good faith and will, to the extent the increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable relate to such Lenders loans in general and are not specifically attributable to a Loan hereunder, use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable and which cover all loans similar to the Loans made by such Lender whether or not the loan documentation for such other loans permits the Lender to receive increased costs of the type described in this Section 3.6(a).

(b) Affected Loans. At any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.6(a)(i) or (iii), Company may (and, in the case of a Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.6(a)(iii), shall) either (i) if the affected Loan is then being made initially or pursuant to a conversion, by giving Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on the same date that Company was notified by the affected Lender or Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.6(a)(i) or (iii), cancel the respective Borrowing, or (ii) if the affected Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days written notice to Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan, provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 3.6(b).

(c) Capital Requirements. Without duplication of Section 3.6(a) hereof, if any Lender determines that any Change in Law by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence of such Lenders Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then Company shall pay to such Lender within 15 days after receipt by Company of written demand by such Lender in accordance with the provisions hereof such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital or liquidity; provided that such amounts shall be proportionate to the amounts that such Lender charges other borrowers or account parties for such additional costs incurred or reductions suffered on loans or letters of credit, as the case may be, similarly situated to Company in connection with substantially similar facilities as reasonably determined by such Lender, acting in good faith.

(d) Certificates for Reimbursement. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable and which will, to the extent the increased costs or reduction in the rate of return relates to such Lenders commitments, loans or obligations in general and are not specifically attributable to the Commitments, Loans and obligations hereunder, cover all commitments, loans and obligations similar to the Commitments, Loans and obligations of such Lender hereunder whether or not the loan documentation for such other commitments, loans or obligations permits the Lender to make the determination specified in this Section 3.6. Such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 3.6, will give prompt written notice thereof to Company, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish any of Companys obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6 (provided that no Lender shall be entitled to receive additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6 for periods occurring prior to the 135th day before the giving of such notice); except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 135 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive affect thereof).

(e) Change of Lending Office. Each Lender which is or will be owed compensation pursuant to Section 3.6(a) or (c) will, if requested by Company, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to cause a different branch or Affiliate to make or continue a Loan or Letter of Credit or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its branches or Affiliates if in the judgment of such Lender such designation or assignment will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation to such Lender and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous in any significant respect to such Lender. Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable expenses incurred by any Lender in utilizing a different branch or Affiliate pursuant to this Section 3.6(e). Nothing in this Section 3.6(e) shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of Company or the right of any Lender provided for herein.

3.7 Replacement of Affected Lenders. (a) If any Multicurrency Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or otherwise defaults in its Obligations to make Loans or fund Unpaid Drawings, (b) if any Lender (or in the case of Section 2.10(i), any Facing Agent) is owed increased costs under Section 2.10(i), Section 3.6(a)(ii) or (iii) or Section 3.6(c), or Company are required to make any payments under Section 4.7 to any Lender that Company determines are materially in excess of those to the other Lenders, (c) as provided in Section 12.1(b) in the case of certain refusals by a Lender to consent to certain proposed amendment, changes, supplements, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders, or (d) if any Multicurrency Revolving Lender notifies Administrative Agent that it cannot make loans, or continue loans, in any Agreed Alternative Currency pursuant to Sections 2.8(c) or 2.8(d), Company shall have the right to replace such Lender (the Replaced Lender) with one or more other Eligible Assignee or Eligible Assignees, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time of such replacement (collectively, the Replacement Lender), reasonably acceptable to Administrative

Agent, and to require each such Replaced Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.8(c)), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to such Replacement Lender, provided that (i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 3.7, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more assignment agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of, and participation in Letters of Credit by, the Replaced Lender and (ii) all obligations of Company owing to the Replaced Lender (including, without limitation, such increased costs and excluding those amounts and obligations specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement; and provided further that the lender replacement right set forth above in Section 3.7(d) shall not apply in any instance where five or more Multicurrency Revolving Lenders all make the same notification to Administrative Agent with respect to a particular Agreed Alternative Currency. Upon the execution of the respective assignment documentation, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above, entry into the Register and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by Company, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, no Lender that acts as a Facing Agent may be replaced hereunder at any time which it has Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Facing Agent (including the furnishing of a standby letter of credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer satisfactory to such Facing Agent or delivering Cash Collateral to such Facing Agent) have been made with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit.

ARTICLE IV

REDUCTION OF COMMITMENTS;
PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS

4.1 Voluntary Reduction of Commitments; Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Voluntary Reduction of Commitments. Upon at least two Business Days prior written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing) to Administrative Agent at the Notice Office (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each Lender in writing), Company shall have the right, without premium or penalty, to terminate the unutilized portion of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments or the Swing Line Commitment, as the case may be, in part or in whole, provided that:

(i) any such voluntary termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments shall apply to proportionately and permanently reduce the Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of each Multicurrency Revolving Lender;

(ii) any partial voluntary reduction pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall be in the amount of at least $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount in the relevant currency of the applicable Facility; and

(iii) any such voluntary termination of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments or Swing Line Commitment shall occur simultaneously with a voluntary prepayment, pursuant to Section 4.3 to the extent necessary such that (A) the Total Commitment shall not be reduced below the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans plus the aggregate LC Obligations and the Swing Line Commitment and (B) the Swing Line Commitment shall not be reduced below the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swing Line Loans.

Each notice of commitment reductions shall be irrevocable; provided that such notice may state that it is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or any other financing, sale or other transaction.

(b) Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lenders right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 12.1.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.4), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Facing Agent and/or the Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent or requested by the applicable Facing Agent and/or Swing Line Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as Company may request (so long as no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Company, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Administrative Agent, the Lenders, any Facing Agent or the Swing Line Lender as determined by a judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Administrative Agent, any Lender, Facing Agent or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lenders breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Unmatured Event Default

or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Company against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lenders breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Multicurrency Revolving Loans or funded participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (B) such Multicurrency Revolving Loans or funded participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2, 5.3 or 5.4, as applicable, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Multicurrency Revolving Loans of, and funded participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Multicurrency Revolving Loans of, or funded participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 4.1(b)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) 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 Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.1(c) and Section 2.10(e) the Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of each Non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default exists and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (A) the Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans of that Lender.

(iv) Cash Collateral for Letters of Credit. Promptly on demand by a Facing Agent or Administrative Agent from time to time, Company shall deliver to Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure with respect to such Facing Agent (after giving effect to Section 4.1(b)(iii) and such Cash Collateral shall be in Dollars). Any such Cash Collateral shall be deposited in a separate account with Administrative Agent, subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Administrative Agent, as collateral (solely for the benefit of such Facing Agent) for the payment and performance of each Defaulting Lenders Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of outstanding LC Obligations. Moneys in such account shall be applied by Administrative Agent to reimburse such Facing Agent immediately for each Defaulting Lenders Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share of any drawing under any Letter of Credit which has not otherwise been reimbursed by Company or such Defaulting Lender.

(v) Prepayment of Swing Line Loans. Promptly on demand by the Swing Line Lender or Administrative Agent from time to time, Company shall prepay the Swing Line Loans in an amount of all Fronting Exposure with respect to the Swing Line Lender (after giving effect to Section 4.1(b)(iii)).

(vi) Certain Fees. For any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender (i) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 3.2(b) (and Company shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender) and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any LC Commissions pursuant to Section 2.10(g)(ii) otherwise payable to the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(iv) but instead, Company shall (x) be required to pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender the amount of such LC Commissions in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Shares allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(iii) and (y) not be required to pay the remaining amount of such LC Commissions that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender.

(vii) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Company, Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lenders and the Facing Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Multicurrency Revolving Loans, of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Multicurrency Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to Section 4.1(b)(iii)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Company while such 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 such Lenders having been a Defaulting Lender.

4.2 Mandatory Reduction of Commitments. Upon any prepayment pursuant to Section 4.4(b), a portion of the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments in an amount equal to:

(a) in the case of a prepayment pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i) in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of such prepayment and (ii) $750,000,000; or

(b) in the case of a prepayment pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(ii) in an amount equal to the amount of such prepayment,

shall, in each case terminate, without premium or penalty.

Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time or, as applicable, local time in the financial center for the applicable Alternative Currency (with respect to Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency)) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or fees ratably to the Lenders entitled to receive any such payment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If and to the extent that any such distribution shall not be so made by Administrative Agent in full on the same day (if payment was actually received by Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time or, as applicable, local time in the financial center for the applicable Alternative Currency (with respect to Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency)), Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender its ratable amount thereof and each such Lender shall be entitled to receive from Administrative Agent, upon demand, interest on such amount at the overnight Federal Funds Rate (or the applicable cost of funds with respect to amounts denominated in an Alternative Currency) for each day from the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent pays such amount to such Lender.

(b) Any payments under this Agreement which are made by Company later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time or, as applicable, local time in the financial center for the applicable Alternative Currency (with respect to Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency)) shall, for the purpose of calculation of interest, be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension, except that with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, if such next succeeding Business Day is not in the same month as the date on which such payment would otherwise be due hereunder or under any Note, the due date with respect thereto shall be the next preceding applicable Business Day.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), if any Defaulting Lender shall have failed to fund all or any portion of any Multicurrency Revolving Loan (each such Multicurrency Revolving Loan, an Affected Loan), each payment by Company hereunder shall be applied first to such Affected Loan and the principal amount and interest with respect to

such payment shall be distributed (i) to each Non-Defaulting Lender who is a Multicurrency Revolving Lender, pro rata based on the outstanding principal amount of Affected Loans owing to all Non-Defaulting Lenders, until the principal amount of all Affected Loans has been repaid in full and (ii) to the extent of any remaining amount of such payment, to each Multicurrency Revolving Lender, as set forth in clauses (a) and (c) above. Each payment made by Company on account of the interest on any Affected Loans shall be distributed to each Non-Defaulting Lender pro rata based on the outstanding principal amount of Affected Loans owing to all Non-Defaulting Lenders.

4.7 Net Payments.

(a) All payments made by or on behalf of any Credit Party to or on behalf of any Lender or Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Loan Document will be made without recoupment, setoff, counterclaim or other defense. Notwithstanding any other provision in any Loan Document, except as provided in this Section 4.7, all payments hereunder and under any of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, payments on account of principal and interest and fees) to or on behalf of any Lender or Administrative Agent shall be made by or on behalf of the Credit Parties free and clear of and without withholding for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other charge of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority, but excluding therefrom:

(i) Excluded Taxes;

(ii) in the case of any Lender or Administrative Agent that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (each being referred to as a Non-U.S. Participant) (other than a Participant, Assignee, successor to Administrative Agent as of the date of this Agreement or Lender that designates a new lending office), any Taxes imposed by the United States by means of withholding at the source unless such withholding (a) results from a change in Applicable Law, treaty or regulations or the interpretation or administration thereof by any authority charged with the administration thereof subsequent to the date of this Agreement or (b) is imposed on payments with respect to a Lenders interest in the Loan Documents acquired under Section 3.7 or Section 12.6;

(iii) any Taxes to the extent such Taxes would be avoided if the Lender or Administrative Agent provided the forms required under Section 4.7(d), unless (A) the Lender or Administrative Agent is not legally entitled to provide the forms (1) as a result of a change in Applicable Law, treaty, or regulations or interpretation or administration thereof by any authority charged with the administration thereof subsequent to the date such Lender or Administrative Agent becomes a Lender or Administrative Agent under a Loan Document or (2) after the Lender acquired an interest in the Loan Documents under Section 3.7 or Section 12.6 or (B) the Lender or Administrative Agent is not providing the forms under Section 4.7(d)(iii) because the Lender or Administrative Agent determines (in its good faith judgment) that it is not legally entitled to provide the forms or that providing the forms would prejudice or disadvantage the Lender or Administrative Agent in any significant respect;

(iv) in the case of any Participant, Assignee, successor to Administrative Agent as of the date of this Agreement or Lender that designates a new lending office, in each case that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), any Taxes imposed by the United States by means of withholding at the source that are in effect on the date such Participant, Assignee or successor Administrative Agent becomes a party to this Agreement or any Loan Document or such Lender designates a new lending office, as applicable, except to the extent (i) the person that assigned or transferred the interest to the Participant or Assignee, or designated the new lending office, was entitled to reimbursement for such Taxes under this Section 4.7 or (ii) the Participant or Assignee becomes a party to a Loan Document under Section 3.7 or Section 12.6;

(b) If any Credit Party or Administrative Agent is required by law to make any deduction or withholding of any Taxes from any payment due hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents (except for Taxes excluded under Section 4.7(a)(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)), then the amount payable by the applicable Credit Party will be increased to such amount which, after deduction from such increased amount of all such Taxes required to be withheld or deducted therefrom, will not be less than the amount due and payable hereunder had no such deduction or withholding been required. If any Credit Party or Administrative Agent makes any payment hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents in respect of which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding of any Taxes, it shall pay the full amount to be deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation or other Governmental Authority within the time allowed for such payment under Applicable Law and shall deliver to Administrative Agent as soon as practicable after it has made such payment to the applicable authority an original or certified copy of such receipt issued by such authority evidencing the payment to such authority of all amounts so required to be deducted or withheld from such payment or such other evidence of payment that is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

(c) (i)Without prejudice to or duplication of the provisions of Section 4.7(a), each Credit Party shall severally and not jointly indemnify Administrative Agent, each Lender and Administrative Agent on its behalf, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Taxes (including Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by Administrative Agent, any Lender or Administrative Agent on its behalf or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Administrative Agent, any Lender or Administrative Agent on its behalf and any interest, penalties and expenses (including counsel fees and expenses but excluding any Taxes described in clauses (i) through (viii) of Section 4.7(a)) payable or incurred in connection therewith, including any Tax arising by virtue of payments under this Section 4.7(c), computed in a manner consistent with this Section 4.7(c). A certificate (showing in reasonable detail the basis for such calculation) as to the amount of such payment by such Lender, or Administrative Agent on its behalf, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto for all purposes; and

(ii) Each Lender and each Facing Agent shall indemnify Administrative Agent within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Excluded Taxes, together with any interest, penalties and expenses (including counsel fees and expenses associated with such Excluded Tax) and any taxes imposed as a result of the receipt of

the payment under this Section 4.7(c)(ii), attributable to such Lender or Facing Agent that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent, whether or not such Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or Facing Agent by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender and each Facing Agent hereby authorize Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Facing Agent, as the case may be, under any Loan Document against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this Section 4.7. The agreements in this Section 4.7 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of Administrative Agent. Company shall also indemnify Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for any amount attributable to Excluded Taxes, together with any interest, penalties and expenses (including counsel fees and expenses associated with such Excluded Tax) and any taxes imposed as a result of the receipt of the payment under this Section 4.7(c)(ii), in each case, arising under FATCA which a Lender or a Facing Agent for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to Administrative Agent as required by this Section 4.7(c)(ii); provided that such Lender or Facing Agent, as the case may be, shall indemnify Company to the extent of any payment Company makes to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 4.7(c)(ii).

(d) (i) Each Lender or Administrative Agent that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(3) of the Code) agrees to deliver to Company and Administrative Agent on or prior to the Effective Date, or in the case of a Lender or Administrative Agent that becomes a party to a Loan Document on a later date, the date such Lender or Administrative Agent becomes a party to a Loan Document, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, (a) two (or more, as reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent) accurate and properly completed original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or W-8ECI or W-8IMY (or successor forms), or (b), (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.7(d) (any such certificate, a Section 4.7(d) Certificate) and (y) two (or more, as reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent) accurate and properly completed original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form) or, in the case of a partnership, IRS Form W-8IMY (or successor form) accompanied by an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form) from each of its partners or members. In addition, each such Non-U.S. Participant agrees that from time to time after the Effective Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will timely deliver within thirty (30) days to Company and Administrative Agent two (or more, as reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent) new accurate and properly completed original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form), or W-8ECI or W-8IMY, or IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form) (or, in the case of a partnership, IRS Form W-8IMY and accompanying IRS Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form)) and a Section 4.7(d) Certificate, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender or Administrative Agent to a continued exemption from (or reduction in) United States withholding Tax with respect to payments under any Loan Document. To the extent a Non-U.S. Participant is unable to deliver

the forms required under this Section 4.7(d)(i), or the forms previously delivered are inaccurate in any material respects, it shall immediately notify Company and Administrative Agent.

(ii) Each Lender and Administrative Agent that is a U.S. Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) agrees to deliver to Company and Administrative Agent on or prior to the Effective Date, or in the case of a Lender or Administrative Agent that becomes a party to a Loan Document on a later date, the date the Lender or Administrative Agent becomes a party to such Loan Document, two accurate and properly completed original signed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) certifying to such Lenders or Administrative Agents entitlement to receive payments under such Loan Document without deduction for United States backup withholding tax. Each such Lender and Administrative Agent agrees from time to time after the Effective Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will timely deliver to Company and Administrative Agent two (or more, as reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent) new accurate and properly completed original signed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or successor form).

(iii) Each Lender and Administrative Agent shall, if requested by Company or Administrative Agent, within a reasonable period of time after such request, provide to Company, Administrative Agent or the applicable Governmental Authority any other tax forms or other documents or complete other formalities necessary or appropriate to avoid (or reduce) withholding for or on account of any Taxes imposed on payments under the Loan Documents pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of any Credit Party, as applicable, provided, however, that no Lender or Administrative Agent shall be required to provide forms or documents or complete other formalities under this Section 4.7(d)(iii) to the extent the Lender or Administrative Agent determines (in its good faith discretion) that it is not legally entitled to do so or that providing such forms or documents or completing the other formalities would prejudice or disadvantage the Lender or Administrative Agent in any material respect. To the extent that a Lender or Administrative Agent is unable to deliver the forms or documents or complete the other formalities required under this Section 4.7(d)(iii) or the previous forms delivered are inaccurate in any material respects, the Lender or Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Company and Administrative Agent.

(iv) if a payment made to a 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 applicable Credit Party and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Credit Party or 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 such Credit Party or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Credit Party, Company and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lenders obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount

to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iv), FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(e) Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of the occurrence of any event or the existence of any condition that would cause any Credit Party to make a payment in respect of any Taxes to such Lender pursuant to Section 4.7(a) or a payment in indemnification for any Taxes pursuant to Section 4.7(c), it will, at the written request of such Credit Party, use reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain the Loan or participation in Letters of Credit (or portions thereof) of such Lender with respect to which the aforementioned payment is or would be made through another lending office of such Lender or will assign its Loans to another Eligible Assignee if as a result thereof the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid by any Credit Party in respect of such Loans (or portions thereof) or participation in Letters of Credit (or portions thereof) pursuant to Section 4.7(a) or Section 4.7(c) would be eliminated or reduced, and if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, the making, funding or maintaining of such Loans (or portions thereof) or participation in Letters of Credit (or portions thereof) through such other lending office would not be otherwise significantly disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Credit Party agrees to pay all reasonable expenses incurred by any Lender in utilizing another lending office of such Lender pursuant to this Section 4.7(e).

(f) If any Credit Party shall pay any Taxes pursuant to this Section 4.7 and any Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent at any time thereafter receives a refund of such Taxes or, as determined in its sole judgment exercised in good faith, a direct credit with respect to the payment of such Taxes, then such Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Credit Party the amount of such refund or credit net of all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent to obtain such refund or credit and without interest except for any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to the refund); provided, however, that such Credit Party agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Credit Party under this Section 4.7(f) (plus any penalties, interest, and other related charges) to the Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent in the event the Lender, any Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent is required to repay the refund to the Governmental Authority.

(g) For purposes of this Section 4.7, and for the avoidance of doubt, the term Lender includes any Facing Agent and the term Applicable Law includes FATCA.

(h) Each partys obligations under this Section 4.7 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Each of Company and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed with the appropriate taxing authority, all material returns, statements, forms and reports for taxes (the Returns) required to be filed by or with respect to the income, properties or operations of Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent failure to file such Returns would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

12.4 Costs, Expenses and Taxes; Indemnification.

(a) Generally. Company agrees to pay promptly upon request by Administrative Agent (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery and syndication of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein (provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Company shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of only one counsel to Administrative Agent and one additional local counsel in each jurisdiction where applicable in connection with the preparation and negotiation of the Loan Documents executed on the Effective Date or required to be executed or delivered pursuant to Section 7.14 unless Company otherwise agrees) and any amendment, waiver, consent relating hereto or thereto or other modifications of (or supplements to) any of the foregoing, including without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of White & Case LLP, local and foreign counsel to Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent relative thereto, and independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and all reasonable search fees, and expenses, filing and recording fees and (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, if any, in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement furnished pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith (provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Company shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of only one primary counsel and one local counsel in each jurisdiction where applicable for Administrative Agent and the Lenders, taken as a whole, plus one additional counsel where necessary in the event of a conflict of interest). Company acknowledges that Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Lead Arrangers may receive a benefit, including without limitation, a discount, credit or other accommodation, from any such counsel based on the fees such counsel may receive on account of their relationship with Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, the Lenders and/or the Lead Arrangers, including, without limitation, fees paid pursuant hereto.

(b) Other Fees and Expenses. In addition, Company agrees to pay any and all present and future stamp, transfer, excise, registration, court, documentary, intangible,

144

recording, filing and other similar taxes payable or determined to be payable in connection with any payment made under, from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, from the receipt or perfection of a security interest under, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document, and each agrees to save and hold Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay by Company in paying, or omission by Company to pay, such taxes, excluding, in each case, such amounts that result from a transfer, assignment or grant of a participation by a Lender or Administrative Agent (other than any transfer or assignment pursuant to Section 3.7 or Section 4.7(e)). Any portion of the foregoing fees, costs and expenses which remains unpaid more than thirty (30) days following Administrative Agents, Collateral Agents or any Lenders statement and the due date thereof shall bear interest from the date of such due date at the Default Rate.

(c) Indemnification. Company agrees jointly and severally to indemnify and hold harmless Lead Arrangers, Bookrunners, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender and each partner, director, officer, employee, agent, attorney and Affiliate of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender (each such Person an Indemnified Person and collectively, the Indemnified Persons) from and against all losses, claims, damages, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), reasonable expenses or liabilities (not including taxes that are the subject matter of Section 4.7 hereof) (including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of any counsel for any Indemnified Person) to which such Indemnified Person may become subject, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, penalties, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), reasonable expenses or liabilities (or actions, suits or proceedings including any investigation or claims in respect thereof (whether or not Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party thereto)) arise out of, in any way relate to, or result from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Transaction or any of the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that:

(i) no Indemnified Person shall have the right to be so indemnified hereunder for any loss, claim, damage, penalties, obligations, expense or liability to the extent it (A) arises or results from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or such Indemnified Persons partner, director, officer, employee, agent, attorney or Affiliate or from such Indemnified Persons (or such Indemnified Persons partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates) material breach of its obligations under this Agreement as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction or (B) arises out of a dispute solely among Indemnified Persons (and not involving Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent) and not resulting from any act or omission by Company or any of its Affiliates; and

(ii) nothing contained herein shall affect the express contractual obligations of the Lenders to Company contained herein.

If any action, suit or proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is brought against Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any Lender or any other Person indemnified or intended

145

to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 12.4, Company will, if requested by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any Lender or any such Indemnified Person, resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding or cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Person or Persons indemnified or intended to be indemnified. The Indemnified Persons shall, unless Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, a Lender or other Indemnified Person has made the request described in the preceding sentence and such request has been complied with, have the right to employ their own counsel (or (but not as well as) staff counsel) to investigate and control the defense of any matter covered by such indemnity and the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided, however, that in any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, Company shall not be liable for reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel), which counsel shall be designated by Administrative Agent provided, further, however, that each Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such inquiry, action, claim or proceeding and to control the defense thereof, and the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of Company if (i) Company shall have agreed in writing to pay such reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses or (ii) such Indemnified Person shall have notified Company that it has been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the other Indemnified Persons and that such common representation would adversely impact the adequacy of the proposed representation. Excluding any losses, costs, liabilities or damages arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Person as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment, Company agrees to indemnify and hold each Indemnified Person harmless from all loss, reasonable out-of-pocket cost (including Attorney Costs), liability and damage whatsoever incurred by any Indemnified Person by reason of any violation of any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits or for the Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Material by Company or any of its Subsidiaries or which occurred at or migrated from any property currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by or on behalf of Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or by reason of the imposition of any Environmental Lien or which occurs by a breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants relating to environmental matters contained herein, provided that with respect to any liabilities arising from acts or failure to act for which Company or any of its Subsidiaries is strictly liable under any Environmental Law or Environmental Permit, Companys obligation to each Indemnified Person under this indemnity shall likewise be without regard to fault on the part of Company or any such Subsidiary. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any Lender or other Indemnified Person as set forth in this Section 12.4 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. The obligations of Company under this Section 12.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of Companys other Obligations hereunder.

146

(d) Foreign Exchange Indemnity. If any sum due from Company under this Agreement or any order or judgment given or made in relation hereto has to be converted from the currency (the first currency) in which the same is payable hereunder or under such order or judgment into another currency (the second currency) for the purpose of (i) making or filing a claim or proof against Company with any Governmental Authority or in any court or tribunal, or (ii) enforcing any order or judgment given or made in relation hereto, Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Persons to whom such sum is due from and against any loss actually suffered as a result of any discrepancy between (a) the rate of exchange used to convert the amount in question from the first currency into the second currency, and (b) the rate or rates of exchange at which such Person, acting in good faith in a commercially reasonable manner, purchased the first currency with the second currency after receipt of a sum paid to it in the second currency in satisfaction, in whole or in part, of any such order, judgment, claim or proof. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate obligation of Company distinct from its other obligations hereunder and shall survive the giving or making of any judgment or order in relation to all or any of such other obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments of principal and interest on Loans denominated in Dollars, Euros, Sterling or Agreed Alternative Currency, as the case may be, shall be made in Dollars, Euros, Sterling or Agreed Alternative Currency as the case may be.

12.5 Confirmations. Company and each holder of any portion of the Obligations agrees from time to time, upon written request received by it from the other, to confirm to the other in writing (with a copy of each such confirmation to Administrative Agent) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loan or Loans and other Obligations then outstanding.

12.6 Adjustment; Setoff.

(a) If any lender (a Benefited Lender) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 10.1(e) or Section 10.1(f) hereof, or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such payment to and collateral received by any other Lender in respect of such other Lenders Loans or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders such portion of each such other Lenders Loans, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each Lender; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Company agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lenders Loans may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of setoff) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Company, any such notice being

147

expressly waived by Company, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to setoff and apply against any Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, of Company or any Credit Party to such Lender, any amount owing from such Lender to Company or Credit Party, at or at any time after, the happening of any of the above-mentioned events, and the aforesaid right of setoff may be exercised by such Lender against Company or Credit Party or against any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receivers, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of Company or Credit Party, or against anyone else claiming through or against, Company or Credit Party or such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receivers, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the fact that such right of setoff shall not have been exercised by such Lender prior to the making, filing or issuance, or service upon such Lender of, or of notice of, any such petition, assignment for the benefit of creditors, appointment or application for the appointment of a receiver, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or issuance of execution, subpoena, order or warrant. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Company and Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application and provided, further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1(b) and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

(c) Company expressly agrees that to the extent Company makes a payment or payments and such payment or payments, or any part thereof, are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or are required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, administrator, administrative receiver, court appointed monitor or other similar official, or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law, rule, regulation or equitable cause in any jurisdiction, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Indebtedness to the Lenders or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment or payments had not been made.

12.7 Execution in Counterparts; Electronic Execution of Assignments. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. The words execution, signed, signature, and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption Agreement 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

148

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.

12.8 Binding Effect; Assignment; Addition and Substitution of Lenders.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Company, Administrative Agent, the Lenders, all future holders of the Notes and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that (i) Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder or in connection herewith or any interest herein (voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Lenders and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 12.8.

(b) Each Lender may at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (Participants) participating interests in all or any portion of its Commitment and Loans or participation in Letters of Credit or any other interest of such Lender hereunder (in respect of any Lender, its Credit Exposure). In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lenders obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, and Company and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement. At the time of the sale of a participating interest, the Lender transferring the interest (i) shall cause the Participant to provide the forms required under Section 4.7(d), if applicable, as if such Participant became a Lender on the date of the sale and (ii) shall, if required under applicable law, deliver revised forms in accordance Section 4.7(d) reflecting the portion of the interest sold and the portion of the interest retained. Further, the Participant shall be subject to the obligations of Section 3.6 and Section 4.7 as if such Participant was a Lender. Company agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, however, that such right of setoff shall be subject to the obligation of such Participant to share with the Lenders, and the Lenders agree to share with such Participant, as provided in Section 12.6. Company also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.6 and Section 4.7 with respect to its participation in the Loans outstanding from time to time, as if such Participant becomes a Lender on the date it acquired an interest pursuant to this Section 12.8(b); provided that no participation shall be made to any Person under this section if, at the time of such participation, the Participants benefits under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 would be greater than the benefits that the participating Lender was entitled to under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 (and if any participation is made in violation of the foregoing, the Participant will not be entitled to the incremental amounts). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each

149

Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) each Participants interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the Participant Register); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participants interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. Each Lender agrees that any agreement between such Lender and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not, except with the consent of Administrative Agent and Company, restrict such Lenders right to approve or agree to any amendment, restatement, supplement or other modification to, waiver of, or consent under, this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents except to the extent that any of the forgoing would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such Participant is participating or extend the stated maturity of any Letter of Credit in which such Participant is participating beyond the Revolver Termination Date, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees on any such Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates and except for amendments or modifications of defined terms used in any financial ratio or other calculations in this Agreement that result in a decrease of the applicable interest rates or fees) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the Participants participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, representations, warranties, Events of Default or Unmatured Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in Commitments shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any Participant if the Participants participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by Company of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents) supporting the Loans and/or Letters of Credit hereunder in which such Participant is participating. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, any bank or other lending institution that is a member of the Farm Credit System that (A) has purchased a participation or sub-participation in the minimum amount of $10,000,000 on or after the Effective Date, (B) is, by written notice to Company and Administrative Agent (Voting Participant Notification), designated by the selling Lender as being entitled to be accorded the rights of a Voting Participant hereunder (any bank or other lending institution that is a member of the Farm Credit System so designated being called a Voting Participant) and (C) receives the prior written consent of Company and Administrative Agent to become a Voting Participant, shall be entitled to vote (and the voting rights of the selling Lender shall be correspondingly reduced), on a dollar for dollar basis, as if such participant or sub-participant were a Lender, on any matter requiring

150

or allowing a Lender to provide or withhold its consent, or to otherwise vote on any proposed action. To be effective, each Voting Participant Notification shall, with respect to any Voting Participant, (1) state the full name, as well as all contact information required of an Assignee in any Administrative Questionnaire and (2) state the dollar amount of the participation or sub-participation purchased. Company and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on information contained in notices delivered pursuant to this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each bank or other lending institution that is a member of the Farm Credit System designated as a Voting Participant in Schedule 12.8(b) hereto shall be a Voting Participant without delivery of a Voting Participant Notification and without the prior written consent of the Borrowers and Administrative Agent.

(c) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees, including an Affiliate of such Lender (which Affiliate, in the case of Credit Exposure under the Multicurrency Revolving Loans or Multicurrency Revolving Commitments, otherwise meets the definition of Eligible Assignee) (each an Assignee), all or any part of its Credit Exposure pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided that no assignment shall be made to any Person under this Section 12.8(c) if, at the time of such assignment, the Assignees benefits under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 would be greater than the benefits that the assigning Lender was entitled to under Section 3.6 or Section 4.7 (and if any assignment is made in violation of the foregoing, the Assignee will not be entitled to the incremental amounts) and provided, further, that any assignment of all or any portion of any Lenders Credit Exposure to an Assignee other than an Affiliate of such Lender or another Lender, or in the case of a Lender that is a Fund, any Related Fund of any Lender (i) shall be an assignment of its Credit Exposure in an amount not less than the Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 (treating any Fund and its Related Funds as a single Eligible Assignee) (or if less the entire amount of Lenders Credit Exposure with respect to such Facility, provided that if such Lender and its Affiliates (or in the case of a Fund and its Related Funds) collectively hold Credit Exposure at least equal to such minimum amounts, such Affiliates and/or Related Funds must simultaneously assign Credit Exposure such that the aggregate Credit Exposure assigned satisfies such minimum amount) and (ii) shall require the prior written consent of Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and, provided that no Event of Default then exists and is continuing, Company (the consent of Company not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, any Lender may at any time assign all or any part of its Credit Exposure to any Affiliate of such Lender or to any other Lender (or in the case of a Lender which is a Fund, to any Related Fund of such Lender) so long as such Affiliate, other Lender or Related Fund is an Eligible Assignee. Upon execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement and the payment of a nonrefundable assignment fee of $3,500 (provided that no such fee shall be payable upon assignments by any Lender which is a Fund to one or more Related Funds and provided, further, that Company shall not in any event be required to pay any portion of such fee unless Company requests that a Lender be replaced pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.7) in immediately available funds to Administrative Agent at its Payment Office in connection with each such assignment, written notice thereof by such transferor Lender to Administrative Agent and the recording by Administrative Agent of such assignment and the resulting effect upon the Loans and the Multicurrency Revolving Commitment of the assigning

151

Lender and the Assignee, the Assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would have if it were a Lender hereunder and the holder of the Obligations (provided that Company and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with the assignor Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to the Assignee until written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to Company and Administrative Agent by the assignor Lender and the Assignee) and, if the Assignee has expressly assumed, for the benefit of Company, some or all of the transferor Lenders obligations hereunder, such transferor Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment and assumption, and except as described above, no further consent or action by Company, the Lenders or Administrative Agent shall be required. At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 12.8(c) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective Assignee shall provide to Company and Administrative Agent the appropriate forms and certificates as provided in Section 4.7(d), if applicable. Each Assignee shall take such Credit Exposure subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to any request made, waiver or consent given or other action taken hereunder, prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent and Company of written notice of such transfer, by each previous holder of such Credit Exposure. Such Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement and Schedule 1.1(a) hereto, to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Assignee as a Lender and the resulting adjustment of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement, the Maximum Commitment, the determination of its Multicurrency Revolver Pro Rata Share, as the case may be (in each case, rounded to twelve decimal places), the Loans, any outstanding Letters of Credit and any new Notes, if requested, to be issued, at Companys expense, to such Assignee, and no further consent or action by Company or the Lenders shall be required to effect such amendments.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Notes held by it) to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board or to any other central bank with jurisdiction over such Lender without notice to, or the consent of, Company, provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest under this Section 12.8(d) shall release a Lender from any obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Notes or Loans to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee. No such pledge or assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.8, no Lender may assign or sell participations, or otherwise syndicate all or any portion of such lenders interests under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Person who is (i) on any Sanctions List or (ii) either (x) included within the term designated national as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515, or (y) designated under Sections 1(a), 1(b), 1(c) or 1(d) of Executive Order No. 13224, 66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (published

12.12 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

12.13 Transfers of Notes. In the event that the holder of any Note (including any Lender) shall transfer such Note, it shall immediately advise Administrative Agent and Company of such transfer, and Administrative Agent and Company shall be entitled conclusively to assume that no transfer of any Note has been made by any holder (including any Lender) unless and until Administrative Agent and Company shall have received written notice to the contrary. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as otherwise expressly agreed in writing by all of the other parties hereto, no Lender shall, by reason of the transfer of a Note or otherwise, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder and any such transfer shall be in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents. Each transferee of any Note shall take such Note subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to any request made, waiver or consent given or other action taken hereunder, prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent and Company of written notice of such transfer, by each previous holder of such Note, and, except as expressly otherwise provided in such transfer, Administrative Agent and Company shall be entitled conclusively to assume that the transferee named in such notice shall hereafter be vested with all rights and powers under this Agreement with respect to the Pro Rata Share of the Loans of the Lender named as the payee of the Note which is the subject of such transfer.

12.14 Registry. Company hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as Companys agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.14 to maintain a register (the Register) on which it will record the Commitment from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of (and stated interest on) the Loans of each Lender. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in

154

the absence of manifest error, and failure to make any such recordation or any error in such recordation shall not affect Companys obligations in respect of such Loans. Company, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each registered holder as absolute owner. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitment shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitment and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitment and Loans shall be recorded by Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 12.8. Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note evidencing such Loan, and thereupon, if requested by the assigning or transferor Lender or new Lender, one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount then owing to such assignor or transferor Lender shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender.

12.15 Euro Currency.

(a) The following provisions of this Section 12.15 shall come into effect on and from the date on which the United Kingdom becomes a Participating Member State. Each obligation under this Agreement which has been denominated in Sterling shall be redenominated into Euros in accordance with the relevant EMU Legislation. However if and to the extent that the relevant EMU Legislation provides that an amount which is denominated in Sterling can be paid by the debtor either in Euros or in that national currency unit, each party to this Agreement shall be entitled to pay or repay any amount denominated or owing in Sterling hereunder either in Euros or in Sterling. Without prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or rounding prescribed by any relevant EMU Legislation, (i) each reference in this Agreement to a minimum amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in Sterling shall be replaced by a reference to such reasonably comparable and convenient amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in Euros as Administrative Agent may from time to time specify and (ii) except as expressly provided in this Section 12.15, this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be necessary or appropriate to reflect the introduction of or changeover to Euros in the United Kingdom.

(b) Company agrees, at the request of any Lender or any Facing Agent, to compensate such Lender or the respective Facing Agent for any loss, cost, expense or reduction in return that such Lender or such Facing Agent shall reasonably determine shall be incurred or sustained by such Lender or such Facing Agent as a result of the implementation of Section 12.15(a) that would not have been incurred or sustained by such Lender or such Facing Agent but for the transactions provided for herein. A certificate of any such Lender or the respective Facing Agent setting forth such Lenders or such Facing Agents determination of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Facing Agent shall be

155

delivered to Administrative Agent for delivery to Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error so long as such determination is made by such Lender or such Facing Agent on a reasonable basis. Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

12.16 Headings. The Table of Contents and Article and Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

12.17 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in effect from the Effective Date through and including the date upon which all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due) arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall have been indefeasibly and irrevocably paid and satisfied in full, all Letters of Credit have been terminated or expired (or been Cash Collateralized) and the Commitment of each Lender has been terminated. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the rights and obligations of the parties hereto arising prior to such termination or in respect of any provision of this Agreement which expressly survives such termination

12.18 Confidentiality. Each of the Lenders severally agrees to keep confidential all non-public information pertaining to Company and its Subsidiaries which is provided to it by any such parties in accordance with such Lenders customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in a prudent fashion, and shall not disclose such information to any Person except:

(a) to the extent such information is public when received by such Lender or becomes public thereafter due to the act or omission of any party other than a Lender,

(b) to an Affiliate of such Lender, counsel or auditors of such Lender, accountants and other consultants, in connection with the Loan Documents, retained by Administrative Agent or any Lender,

(c) in connection with any litigation or the enforcement of the rights of any Lender or Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document,

(d) to the extent required by any applicable statute, rule or regulation or court order (including, without limitation, by way of subpoena) or pursuant to the request of any Governmental Authority having or asserting jurisdiction over any Lender or Administrative Agent; provided, however, that in such event, if the Lender(s) are able to do so, the Lender shall provide Company with prompt notice of such requested disclosure (other than in connection with routine examinations of such Lender by any such Governmental Authority) so that Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, and, in any event, the Lenders will endeavor in good faith to provide only that portion of such information which, in the reasonable judgment of the Lender(s), is relevant and legally required to be provided, or to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lenders investment portfolio in connection with rating issued with respect to such Lender.

156

(e) to the extent disclosure to other entities is appropriate in connection with any proposed or actual assignment, grant of a participation or swap agreement entered into by any of the Lenders with respect to interests in this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents to such other entities (who will in turn be required to maintain confidentiality as if they were Lenders parties to this Agreement). In no event shall Administrative Agent or any Lender be obligated or required to return any such information or other materials furnished by Company.

12.19 Concerning the Collateral and the Loan Documents.

(a) Authority. Each Lender authorizes and directs Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch to act as Collateral Agent under each of the Security Documents, and to enter into the Loan Documents relating to the Collateral for the benefit of the Lenders and the other secured parties. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where required by the express terms, hereof, a different proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions hereof or of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where so required, such different proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with the Loan Documents relating to the Collateral; (ii) execute and deliver each Loan Document relating to the Collateral and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) act as collateral trustee for the Lenders for purposes stated therein to the extent such action is provided for under the Loan Documents; (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral; (v) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and liens created or purported to be created by the Loan Documents, and (vi) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, exercise all remedies given to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, or the Lenders with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise.

(b) Release of Collateral and Guarantors. Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and the Lenders hereby direct Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to release, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, any Lien held by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under the Security Documents (and in the case of a sale, conveyance or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of a Domestic Subsidiary owned by Company or any of its Subsidiaries under clause (ii) below, to release the affected Subsidiary from its Subsidiary Guaranty):

(i) against all of the Collateral, upon payment in full of the Loans and other outstanding Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations with respect to which no claim has been made);

157

(ii) against any part of the Collateral sold, conveyed, transferred, liquidated or otherwise disposed of by Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such sale, conveyance, transfer, liquidation or disposition is permitted hereby (or permitted pursuant to a waiver or consent of a transaction otherwise prohibited hereby);

(iii) so long as no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the sole discretion of Administrative Agent upon the request of Company, against any part of the Collateral with a fair market value of less than $10,000,000 in the aggregate during the term of this Agreement as such fair market value may be certified to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent by Company in an officers certificate reasonably acceptable in form and substance to Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent;

(iv) against any part of the Collateral to the extent necessary to effect a transaction permitted under Section 8.4; or

(v) against a part of the Collateral which release does not require the consent of all of the Lenders as set forth in Section 12.1(a), if such release is consented to by the Required Lenders,

provided, however, that (y) Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in its opinion, would expose it to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (z) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of Company or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of) all interests retained by Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries, including (without limitation) the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(c) No Obligation. Neither Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Company or any of its Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent herein or pursuant to the Loan Documents have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given its own interests in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that neither Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall have any duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender, provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be responsible for its grossly negligent actions or actions constituting intentional misconduct.

12.20 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on the date on which Company and each of the Lenders party hereto shall have signed a counterpart of this

158

Agreement (whether the same or different counterparts) and shall have delivered to the same to Administrative Agent as the Notice Address (or to Administrative Agents counsel as directed by such counsel) or, in the case of the Lenders, shall have given to Administrative Agent or telephonic (confirmed in writing), written, telex or facsimile notice (actually received) at such office or the office of Administrative Agents counsel that the same has been signed and mailed to it.

12.21 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each such Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

12.22 Restrictions on Guarantees and Pledges. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any Loan Document, (a) neither Company nor any Domestic Subsidiary of Company (individually or in combination) shall pledge more than 65% of the stock of any Foreign Subsidiary (or more than 65% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such Foreign Subsidiary entitled to vote); (b) no Foreign Subsidiary of Company shall pledge any of its assets (including the stock of any Subsidiary) to secure the Obligations; and (c) no Foreign Subsidiary shall provide any guarantees to secure the Obligations; provided that in the case of any Subsidiary organized under U.S. law that does not meet the definition of a Domestic Subsidiary by virtue of clauses (i) or (ii) in the definition thereof, such Subsidiary shall be treated as if it were a Foreign Subsidiary solely for the purposes of this Section 12.22. For purposes of this Section 12.22, Subsidiary shall include any Unrestricted Entity. The Credit Parties, Lenders and Administrative Agent agree that any pledge, guaranty or security, or similar interest, made or granted in contravention of this Section 12.22 shall be void ab initio.

12.23 Redesignation of Unrestricted Entities as Subsidiaries. Any Unrestricted Entity that would be a Subsidiary but for the last sentence of the definition of Subsidiary may be redesignated by Company as a Subsidiary (with such redesignation being deemed to be an Acquisition by Company of such Subsidiary which shall be deemed to constitute a Permitted Acquisition for purposes of Section 8.7) provided that (i) Company shall have delivered to Administrative Agent (not less than 30 days prior to the date Company desires such redesignation to be effective) a notice signed by a Responsible Officer identifying such Unrestricted Entity to be redesignated and providing such other information as Administrative Agent may reasonably request, (ii) immediately before and immediately after the effectiveness of such redesignation, no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default exists or will exist (including, without limitation, the permissibility of any Investment, Indebtedness, Liens or other obligations existing at such Subsidiaries), (iii) Company has complied, to the extent applicable, with the provisions of Section 7.12 and the applicable Subsidiaries, on the effective date of such redesignation or such later date as agreed to by Administrative Agent but in no event later than one hundred twenty days after such date, are in compliance with the terms and conditions of all applicable Security Documents, (iv) after giving effect to such redesignation, Company shall be in compliance with the financial covenant set forth in Article IX (calculated on a Pro Forma Basis) as of the end of the most recent Test Period for which financial statements have been

159

delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7.1, (v) Administrative Agent has received such other documents, instruments and opinions as it may reasonably request in connection with such redesignation, and all such instruments, documents and opinions shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent and (vi) on the desired effective date of such redesignation, Company shall deliver a certificate from a Responsible Officer confirming clauses (ii) through (v) above and that the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on the date of, and after giving effect to, such redesignation as though made on such date (except to the extent such representations and warranties are expressly made of a specified date in which event they shall be true as of such date).

12.24 No Fiduciary Responsibility. Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges that (i) none of the Agents nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Credit Parties arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Company and the Credit Parties, on one hand, and the Agents and Lenders, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor and (ii) each Agent, Lender and their Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties, their stockholders and/or their Affiliates.

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY

See Attached.

FORM OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY

THIS SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY, dated as of [-], 20[-] (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this Guaranty), is made by each of the undersigned (each, a Guarantor and, together with any other entity that becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 25 hereof, collectively, the Guarantors). Except as otherwise defined herein, terms used herein and defined in the Credit Agreement (as defined below) shall be used herein as therein defined.

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement dated as of February 19, 2015 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Credit Agreement) by and among Ball Corporation, an Indiana corporation (the Company), the financial institutions from time to time party thereto (the Lenders) and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent for the Lenders (the Administrative Agent), and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as Collateral Agent (the Lenders, Administrative Agent, and Collateral Agent are herein called the Bank Creditors), the Lenders have agreed to make Loans and to issue, and participate in Letters of Credit as contemplated therein;

WHEREAS, Company and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries may from time to time be party to one or more Interest Rate Agreements as permitted by Section 8.2(e) of the Credit Agreement and Other Hedging Agreements as permitted by Section 8.2(h) of the Credit Agreement (each such agreement or arrangement with an Other Creditor (as hereinafter defined), other than Excluded Swap Obligations (as hereinafter defined), an Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreement), with a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (each such Lender or Affiliate, collectively, the Other Creditors, and together with the Bank Creditors, are herein called the Secured Creditors);

WHEREAS, each Guarantor is a Domestic Subsidiary of Company;

WHEREAS, in connection with the Credit Agreement, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and to issue, and participate in Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement; and

WHEREAS, each Guarantor will obtain benefits from the incurrence of Loans by Company under the Credit Agreement and the entering into of Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements and, accordingly, desires to execute this Guaranty in order to satisfy the conditions described in the preceding paragraph and to induce the Lenders to make Loans to Company and Other Creditors to enter into Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements with Company and/or its Subsidiaries;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other benefits accruing to each Guarantor, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Secured Creditors and hereby covenants and agrees with each Secured Creditor as follows:

1. Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as primary obligor and not as surety: (i) to the Bank Creditors the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of (A) the principal of and interest on the Notes issued by, and the Loans made to, Company under the Credit Agreement and all reimbursement obligations and Unpaid Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit and (B) all other

obligations (including, without limitation, all Obligations and all obligations which, but for the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due) and liabilities owing by Company to the Bank Creditors under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, indemnities, fees and interest thereon) and the other Loan Documents to which Company is a party, whether now existing or hereafter incurred under, arising out of or in connection with the Credit Agreement or any such other Loan Document and the due performance and compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents by Company (all such principal, interest, liabilities and obligations under this clause (i), except to the extent consisting of obligations or liabilities with respect to Excluded Swap Obligations or Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements, being herein collectively called the Loan Document Obligations); and (ii) to each Other Creditor the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of all obligations (including obligations which, but for the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due) and liabilities owing by Company now existing or hereafter incurred under, arising out of or in connection with any Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreement, whether such Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreement is now in existence or hereafter arising, and the due performance and compliance by Company with all of the terms, conditions and agreements contained therein (all such obligations and liabilities under this clause (ii) being herein collectively called the Other Obligations, and together with the Loan Document Obligations are herein collectively called the Guaranteed Obligations), provided that the maximum amount payable by each Guarantor hereunder shall at no time exceed the Maximum Amount (as hereinafter defined) of such Guarantor. As used herein, Maximum Amount of any Guarantor means the lesser of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations and the highest amount of aggregate liability under this Guaranty which is valid and enforceable as determined in any action or proceeding involving any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally. Subject to the proviso in the second preceding sentence, each Guarantor understands, agrees and confirms that the Secured Creditors may enforce this Guaranty up to the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations against each Guarantor without proceeding against any other Guarantor or Company, or against any security or collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, or under any other guaranty covering all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations. All payments by each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be made on the same basis, and subject to the same limitations, as payments by Company are made under the Credit Agreement, including Sections 4.6 and 4.7 thereof.

2. Additionally, each Guarantor, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees the payment of any and all Guaranteed Obligations of Company to the Secured Creditors whether or not due or payable by Company upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Sections 10.1(e) or (f) of the Credit Agreement with respect to Company, and unconditionally, jointly and severally, promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations of Company to the Secured Creditors, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States or the applicable Alternative Currency, as the case may be.

3. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of such Guarantors obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this subsection for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this subsection, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this subsection shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of this Guaranty accordance with Section 27. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this subsection constitute, and this subsection shall be deemed to constitute, a keepwell, support, or other agreement for the benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section la(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

As used in this Guaranty, the following terms have the following meanings:

Commodity Exchange Act means the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. Section 1, et seq.), as amended from time to time, and any successor statute.

Excluded Swap Obligation means, with respect to any Guarantor, any Swap Obligation if, and to the extent that, all or a portion of the guarantee of such Guarantor of, or the grant by such Guarantor of a security interest to secure, such Swap Obligation (or any guarantee thereof) is or becomes illegal under the Commodity Exchange Act or any rule, regulation or order of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (or the application or official interpretation of any thereof) by virtue of such Guarantors failure for any reason to constitute an eligible contract participant as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder at the time the guarantee of such Guarantor or the grant of such security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation. If a Swap Obligation arises under a master agreement governing more than one swap, such exclusion shall apply only to the portion of such Swap Obligation that is attributable to swaps for which such guarantee or security interest is or becomes illegal.

Qualified ECP Guarantor means, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Guarantor that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant guarantee or grant of the relevant security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation or such other Person as constitutes an eligible contract participant under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another Person to qualify as an eligible contract participant at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section la(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Swap Obligation means, with respect to any Guarantor, any obligation to pay or perform under any agreement, contract or transaction that constitutes a swap within the meaning of section l a(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

4. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder is exclusive and independent of any security or collateral for or other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations of Company whether executed by such Guarantor, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (i) any direction as to application of payment by Company or by any other party, (ii) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Guaranteed Obligations of Company, (iii) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, (iv) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by Company or any Guarantor or (v) any payment made to any Secured Creditor on the Guaranteed Obligations which any Secured Creditor repays to Company or any Guarantor pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding in any jurisdiction.

5. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or Company, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or Company and whether or not any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of Company be joined in any such action or actions. Each Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by Company or any other Guarantor or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to Company or any other Guarantor shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to each Guarantor.

6. Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and notice of any liability to which it may apply, promptness, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest, notice of dishonor or nonpayment of any such liabilities, suit or taking of other action by Administrative Agent or any other Secured Creditor against, and any other notice to, any party liable thereon (including such Guarantor or any other guarantor or Company).

7. Any Secured Creditor may (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) at any time and from time to time in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement without the consent of, or notice to, Guarantor, without incurring responsibility to such Guarantor and without impairing or releasing the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder, upon or without any terms or conditions and in whole or in part:

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon), any security or collateral therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof (other than any agreement between any Secured Creditor and one or more Guarantors specifically modifying or amending the terms of this Guaranty), and the guaranty herein made shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

(b) take and hold security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset there against;

(d) release or substitute any one or more other endorsers or other guarantors who are liable for the Guaranteed Obligations;

(e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of Company to its creditors other than the Secured Creditors;

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of Company to the Secured Creditors, regardless of what liability or liabilities of Company remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, any of the Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements, the Loan Documents or any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement any of the Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements, the Loan Documents (other than this Guaranty) or any of such other instruments or agreements in accordance with their respective terms; and/or

(h) act or fail to act in any manner referred to in this Guaranty which may deprive such Guarantor of its right to subrogation against Company to recover full indemnity for any payments made pursuant to this Guaranty.

8. No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any security therefor shall affect, impair or be a defense to this Guaranty, and this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute and unconditional notwithstanding the occurrence of any event or the existence of any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor except payment in full of the Loan Document Obligations.

9. This Guaranty is a continuing one and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. No failure or delay on the part of any Secured Creditor in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any Secured Creditor would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. It is not necessary for any Secured Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

10. Any indebtedness of Company now or hereafter held by any Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the indebtedness of Company to the Secured Creditors; and such indebtedness of Company to any Guarantor, if Administrative Agent, after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor for the benefit of the Secured Creditors and be paid over to Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Creditors on account of the Guaranteed Obligations of Company to the Secured Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby agrees with the Secured Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Loan Document Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash and all Commitments have been terminated (other than indemnity and other contingent obligations described in Section 12.4 of the Credit Agreement that expressly survive termination thereof and for which no claim has been asserted).

11. (a) Each Guarantor waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any right to require the Secured Creditors to: (i) proceed against Company, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of Company or any other party; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security or collateral held from Company, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of Company or any other party; or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Secured Creditors power whatsoever. Each Guarantor waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any defense based on or arising out of any defense of Company, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of Company or any other party other than payment in full of the Loan Document Obligations, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the disability of Company, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of Company or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of Company other than payment in full of the Loan Document Obligations. The Secured Creditors may, at their election and in accordance with Section 12 hereof, foreclose on any security or collateral held by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the other Secured Creditors by

one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, (to the extent such sale is in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Secured Creditors may have against Company or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Loan Document Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash and all Commitments have been terminated (other than indemnity and other contingent obligations described in Section 12.4 of the Credit Agreement that expressly survive termination thereof and for which no claim has been asserted). Each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Secured Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against Company or any other party or any security.

(b) Each Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional indebtedness. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of Companys financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that the Secured Creditors shall have no duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

12. The Secured Creditors agree that this Guaranty may be enforced only by the action of Administrative Agent acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Guaranty or to realize upon the security to be granted by the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Guaranty and the Security Documents. The Secured Creditors further agree that this Guaranty may not be enforced against any director, officer, employee, or stockholder of any Guarantor (except to the extent such stockholder is also a Guarantor hereunder).

Such Guarantor has duly executed and delivered this Guaranty and this Guaranty constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,

15. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each Secured Creditor in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of only one primary counsel and one local counsel in each jurisdiction where applicable for all the Secured Creditors, taken as a whole, plus one additional counsel where necessary in the event of a conflict of interest).

17. Neither this Guaranty nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except with the written consent of each Guarantor directly affected thereby and the Required Lenders (or to the extent required by Section 12.1 of the Credit Agreement, with the written consent of each Lender) at all times prior to the time on which all Loan Document Obligations have been

irrevocably paid in full in cash; provided, however, that any change, waiver, modification or variance affecting the rights and benefits of a single Class (as defined below) of Secured Creditors (and not all Secured Creditors in a like or similar manner) shall require the written consent of the Requisite Creditors (as defined below) of such Class of Creditors; and provided, further, that (i) any addition of a Guarantor hereunder shall not constitute a change, waiver, discharge, termination, amendment or other modification hereto for the purposes of this Section 17, and the addition of any such Guarantor shall be effective upon the delivery of a Supplement (as defined below) to Administrative Agent by the applicable Guarantor and (ii) any release of a Guarantor hereunder permitted by Section 12.19 of the Credit Agreement shall not constitute a change, waiver, discharge, termination, amendment of other modification hereto for the purposes of this Section 17 and the release of a Guarantor shall be effective upon delivery of such Guarantor of a release executed by Administrative Agent (which release Administrative Agent is authorized to execute and deliver to the extent provided in Section 12.19 of the Credit Agreement).

Each Secured Creditor agrees to use reasonable efforts to notify Company and Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Secured Creditor.

20. All notices and communications hereunder shall be given to the addresses and otherwise made in accordance with Section 12.3 of the Credit Agreement; provided that notices and communications to (a) the Guarantors, shall be directed to the Guarantors, at the address of Company as provided in and in accordance with Section 12.3 of the Credit Agreement, (b) the Bank Creditors, shall be directed to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the Lenders, as applicable, at the address of such party as provided in and in accordance with Section 12.3 of the Credit Agreement, and (c) any Other Creditor at such address as such Other Creditor shall have specified in writing to the Guarantors and Administrative Agent.

22. (a) ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE, COUNTY AND CITY OF NEW YORK.

23. In the event that all of the Capital Stock of one or more Guarantors is sold, conveyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of or liquidated in compliance with the requirements of Section 8.3, Section 8.4 or Section 8.6 of the Credit Agreement (or such sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition or liquidation is otherwise permitted by the Credit Agreement or has been approved in writing by the Required Lenders (or all Lenders if required by Section 12.1 of the Credit Agreement)), such Guarantor shall be released from this Guaranty and this Guaranty shall, as to each such Guarantor or Guarantors, terminate, and have no further force or effect (it being understood and agreed that the sale of one or more Persons that own, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or partnership interests of any Guarantor shall be deemed to be a sale of such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 23).

24. This Guaranty and any amendments or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

The execution and delivery of any instrument adding an additional party to this Guaranty shall not require the consent of any party hereunder or of any Secured Creditor. The rights and obligations of each party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new party hereto.

27. On the Termination Date, this Guaranty shall automatically terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth herein shall survive such termination) and Administrative Agent, at the request and expense of the relevant Guarantor, will execute and deliver to such Guarantor a proper instrument or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Guaranty.

To secure the Obligations, and for the purposes set forth in Section 1 hereof, each Pledgor hereby grants and pledges to the Pledgee a security interest in, and acknowledges and agrees that Pledgee has a lien upon and security interest in, all of such Pledgors right, title and interest in the following property (all of which is hereinafter referred to as the Collateral) now or hereafter owned by such Pledgor: (i) all shares of stock, limited liability company interests and other Capital Stock issued by the issuers listed on Annex A hereto, including, without limitation, the shares of stock, the limited liability company interests and the other Capital Stock described on Annex A hereto (and in and to all certificates or instruments evidencing any and/or all of the foregoing) (the Initial Pledged Securities); (ii) all of such Pledgors right, title and interest in and to any other Securities (and in and to all certificates or instruments evidencing such Securities) (the Additional Pledged Securities, and together with the Initial Pledged Securities, the Pledged Securities); and (iii) all proceeds of any and all the foregoing as collateral security for the Obligations, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Collateral shall not include Excluded Securities.

3.2. Delivery of Securities. On the date hereof, each Pledgor has delivered to the Pledgee any and all certificates which it owns representing any Initial Pledged Securities, accompanied by undated stock, partnership or membership powers duly executed in blank by such Pledgor (and accompanied by any transfer tax stamps required in connection with the pledge of such Securities), or such other instruments of transfer as are reasonably acceptable to the Pledgee. If any Pledgor shall acquire (by purchase, stock dividend or otherwise) any additional Capital Stock required to be pledged under Section 7.12 of the Credit Agreement at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, such Pledgor will promptly deposit such Capital Stock (or certificates or instruments representing such Capital Stock) with the Pledgee and deliver to the Pledgee certificates or instruments therefor (if any), accompanied by undated stock, partnership or membership powers duly executed in blank by such Pledgor (and accompanied by any transfer tax stamps required in connection with the pledge of such Capital Stock), or such other instruments of transfer as are acceptable to the Pledgee, and will promptly thereafter deliver to the Pledgee a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of such Pledgor describing such Capital Stock in the manner set forth on Annex A hereto and certifying that the same have been duly pledged with the Pledgee hereunder (and upon such delivery Annex A hereto shall be deemed amended to include such additional Capital Stock as Securities).

3.3. Uncertificated Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 hereof, if any Pledged Securities (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) are uncertificated Securities, the respective Pledgor shall promptly notify the Pledgee thereof, and shall promptly take all actions required to perfect the security interest of the Pledgee under applicable law; provided that in no event shall any actions be required in any jurisdiction outside the United States to establish, perfect, preserve and protect such security interest. The Pledgors shall not permit or suffer (a) such uncertificated Pledged Securities to be represented by any certificates or otherwise become certificated securities or to be credited to a

securities account within the meaning of the UCC unless Pledgee has been granted control within the meaning of the UCC over such securities account (or unless such Securities thereafter become certificated and the provisions of Section 3.2 hereof are complied with) or (b) any person other than the Pledgee to have control within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC in respect of the such uncertificated Pledged Securities.

3.4. [Reserved].

4. APPOINTMENT OF SUB-AGENTS; ENDORSEMENTS, ETC. The Pledgee shall have the right to appoint, after the Effective Date, one or more sub-agents for the purpose of retaining physical possession of the certificated Pledged Securities, which may be held (in the discretion of the Pledgee) in the name of such Pledgor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Pledgee or any nominee or nominees of the Pledgee or a sub-agent appointed by the Pledgee.

5. VOTING, ETC., WHILE NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. So long as an Event of Default shall not have occurred and be continuing and until the Pledgee gives notice of its intent to exercise its rights under Section 7 hereof during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Securities owned by it, and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof; provided, that no vote shall be cast or any consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken which would violate, result in breach of any covenant contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreement (collectively, the Secured Debt Agreements), except to the extent such violation, inconsistency or impairment shall be waived in accordance with the terms of Section 20 hereof.

6. DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. So long as an Event of Default shall not have occurred and be continuing and until the Pledgee gives notice of its intent to exercise its rights under Section 7 hereof during the continuation of an Event of Default, all cash and other non-cash dividends and distributions payable in respect of the Pledged Securities shall be paid to the respective Pledgor that owns such Pledged Securities; provided that, the Pledgee shall be entitled to receive directly, and to retain as part of the Collateral:

(a) all other or additional stock or other securities (other than cash) paid or distributed by way of dividend or otherwise in respect of the Pledged Securities;

(b) all other or additional stock or other securities paid or distributed in respect of the Pledged Securities by way of stock-split, spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar rearrangement; and

(c) all other or additional stock or, except in connection with transactions permitted by the Credit Agreement, other securities or property (including cash) which may be paid in respect of the Collateral by reason of any consolidation, merger, exchange of stock, conveyance of assets, liquidation or similar corporate reorganization.

Nothing contained in this Section 6 shall limit or restrict in any way the Pledgees right to receive proceeds of the Collateral in any form in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement. All dividends, distributions or other payments that are received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6 and Section 7 shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Pledgee, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Pledgee as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

7. REMEDIES IN CASE OF EVENTS OF DEFAULT. In case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case, the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights, powers and remedies (whether vested in it by this Agreement, any other Secured Debt Agreement or by law) for the protection and enforcement of its rights in respect of the Collateral, and the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or other applicable law; provided that in no event shall any actions be required in any jurisdiction outside the United States to establish, perfect, preserve and protect such security interest, and also shall be entitled, without limitation, to exercise the following rights, which each Pledgor hereby agrees to be commercially reasonable:

(a) to receive all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral otherwise payable to such Pledgor under Section 6 hereof;

(b) to transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Pledgees name or the name of its nominee or nominees;

(c) to vote all or any part of the Pledged Securities (whether or not transferred into the name of the Pledgee) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Pledgee the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so); and

(d) to sell, assign and deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale, without demand of performance, advertisement or notice of intention to sell or of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or to redeem or otherwise (all of which are hereby waived by each Pledgor to the maximum extent permitted by law), for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine, provided that at least 10 days prior written notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to such Pledgor. The Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has theretofore been given. Each Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations or otherwise. At any such sale, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Pledgee on behalf of the Secured Creditors may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. Neither the Pledgee nor any Secured Creditor shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall any of them be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto.

8. REMEDIES, ETC., CUMULATIVE. Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Agreement, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement, or any other Secured Debt Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Pledgee or any Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. Unless otherwise required by the Loan Documents, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS.

(a) All moneys collected by the Pledgee upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral, together with all other moneys received by the Pledgee hereunder, shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations as follows:

(i) first, to the payment of all amounts owing the Pledgee of the type described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the definition of Obligations in Section 1 hereof;

(ii) second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Primary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 9(e) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Primary Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

(iii) third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), an amount equal to the outstanding Secondary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 9(e) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Secondary Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Secondary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and

(iv) fourth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, and following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 18 hereof, to the relevant Pledgor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement (i) Pro Rata Share shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditors portion of any distribution or amount, that amount

(expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditors Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, (ii) Primary Obligations shall mean (A) in the case of the Loan Document Obligations (as defined in the Subsidiary Guaranty), all principal of, and interest on, all Loans, all Unpaid Drawings theretofore made (together with all interest accrued thereon), and the aggregate Stated Amounts of all Letters of Credit issued (or deemed issued) under the Credit Agreement, and all fees and (B) in the case of the Other Obligations (as defined in the Subsidiary Guaranty), all amounts due under the Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements (other than indemnities, fees (including, without limitation, attorneys fees) and similar obligations and liabilities) and (iii) Secondary Obligations shall mean all Obligations other than Primary Obligations.

(c) When payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 9 only) (i) first, to their Primary Obligations and (ii) second, to their Secondary Obligations. If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

(d) Each of the Secured Creditors agrees and acknowledges that if the Bank Creditors are to receive a distribution on account of undrawn amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued (or deemed issued) under the Credit Agreement (which shall only occur after all outstanding Loans and Unpaid Drawings with respect to such Letters of Credit have been paid in full), such amounts shall be paid to the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and held by it, for the equal and ratable benefit of the Bank Creditors, as cash security for the repayment of Obligations owing to the Bank Creditors as such. If any amounts are held as cash security pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, then upon the termination of all outstanding Letters of Credit, and after the application of all such cash security to the repayment of all Obligations owing to the Bank Creditors after giving effect to the termination of all such Letters of Credit, if there remains any excess cash, such excess cash shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Pledgee for distribution in accordance with Section 9(a) hereof.

(e) Except as set forth in Section 9(d) hereof, all payments required to be made hereunder shall be made (i) if to the Bank Creditors, to Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement for the account of the Bank Creditors, and (ii) if to the Other Creditors, to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each a Representative) for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, directly to the Other Creditors.

(f) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 9, the Pledgee shall be entitled to rely upon (i) Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and (ii) the Representative for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the Other Creditors for a determination (which Administrative Agent, each Representative for any Secured Creditors and the Secured Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Pledgee) of the outstanding Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations owed to the Bank Creditors or the Other Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Bank Creditor or an Other Creditor) to the contrary, Administrative Agent and each Representative, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations are outstanding. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from an Other Creditor) to the contrary, the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements are in existence.

(g) It is understood and agreed that the Pledgors shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral hereunder and the aggregate amount of the sums referred to in clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, of Section 9(a) hereof.

10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Pledgee hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Pledgee or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Pledgee or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.

11. EXPENSES. The Pledgors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each Secured Creditor in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of only one primary counsel and one local counsel in each jurisdiction where applicable for all the Secured Creditors, taken as a whole, plus one additional counsel where necessary in the event of a conflict of interest).

12. FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER-OF-ATTORNEY. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with the Pledgee in executing (where necessary) and, at such Pledgors own expense, file and refile under the UCC or other applicable law (provided that in no event shall any actions be required in any jurisdiction outside the United States to establish, perfect, preserve and protect such security interest) such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents in such offices as the Pledgee may request and deem reasonably necessary and wherever required by law in order to perfect and preserve the Pledgees security interest in the Collateral and hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements and amendments thereto relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Pledgee such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Pledgee may reasonably require or deem necessary to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to

further assure and confirm unto the Pledgee its rights, powers and remedies hereunder; provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Pledgee shall not, and no Pledgor shall be required to, take any of the foregoing actions, or to execute, deliver or file any agreements, documents, financing statements, or instruments, in any jurisdiction (or under the laws of any jurisdiction) other than the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia.

(b) Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Pledgee as such Pledgors attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the Pledgees reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Pledgee may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

13. THE PLEDGEE AS AGENT. The Pledgee will hold in accordance with this Agreement all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto and each Secured Creditor, by accepting the benefits of this Agreement, that each acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Pledgee as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Pledgee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in Article XI and Sections 12.19 and 12.22 of the Credit Agreement.

14. TRANSFER BY PLEDGORS. No Pledgor will sell or otherwise dispose of, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein (except as may be permitted in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement).

15. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PLEDGORS. Each Pledgor represents and warrants and covenants that (a) it is the legal, record and beneficial owner of, and has good title to, all the Initial Pledged Securities and, when acquired by such Pledgor, all Additional Pledged Securities, in each case, subject to no Lien (except the Lien created by this Agreement and Liens permitted under Section 8.1 of the Credit Agreement); (b) it has full corporate power, authority and legal right to pledge all the Pledged Securities; (c) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Pledgor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Pledgor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law); (d) except as set forth on Schedule 6.4 to the Credit Agreement, except for filings necessary to create or perfect security interests in the Collateral, and except as have been obtained or made on or prior to the Effective Date, no material order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any Governmental Authority, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with, (i) the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the performance of the obligations hereunder, (ii) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement against such Pledgor, (iii) the perfection or enforceability of the Pledgees security interest in the Collateral or (iv) except for compliance with or as may be required by applicable securities laws and the applicable UCC, the exercise by

the Pledgee of any of its rights or remedies provided herein; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or in any other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Pledgee shall not, and no Pledgor shall be required to take any action in any jurisdiction outside of the United States or required by the laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States in order to perfect or enforce any security interests in the Collateral; (e) the execution and delivery by such Pledgor of this Agreement and the performance of such Pledgors obligations hereunder do not (i) contravene any provision of any Requirement of Law applicable to such Pledgor, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except pursuant to the Security Documents) upon any of the property or assets of such Pledgor pursuant to the terms of any Contractual Obligation to which such Pledgor is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound except for such contraventions, conflicts, breaches or defaults that would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, (iii) violate any provision of any Organizational Document of such Pledgor, (iv) require any approval of stockholders or (v) any material approval or consent of any Person (other than a Governmental Authority) except filings, consents, or notices which have been made, obtained or given and except as set forth on Schedule 6.3 to the Credit Agreement; (f) all the shares of the Pledged Securities of any corporation have been duly and validly issued, are fully paid, as applicable, and non-assessable and are transferable and subject to no options to purchase or similar rights (except, in each case, pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement or as otherwise permitted by the Credit Agreement and except for any restriction existing or arising as a result of a Requirement of Law); and (g) the pledge and collateral assignment and delivery of the Pledged Securities (other than uncertificated Securities) pursuant to this Agreement (to the extent that delivery has been made) creates a valid and perfected first priority Lien in the Securities, and the proceeds thereof, under the UCC, subject to no other Lien (except for Permitted Liens) or to any agreement purporting to grant to any third party a Lien on the property or assets of such Pledgor which would include the Securities. Each Pledgor covenants and agrees that it will defend the Pledgees right, title and security interest in and to the Securities and the proceeds thereof against the claims and demands of all persons whomsoever; and such Pledgor covenants and agrees that it will have like title to and right to pledge any other property at any time hereafter pledged to the Pledgee as Collateral hereunder and will likewise defend the right thereto and security interest therein of the Pledgee and the Secured Creditors. Each Pledgor further represents and warrants that on the date hereof: (a) the Securities held by such Pledgor consist of the number and type of Capital Stock as described in Annex A hereto; (b) such Securities constitute that percentage of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of the issuing Subsidiary as is set forth in Annex A hereto; and (c) such Pledgor is the holder of record and sole beneficial owner of the Securities held by such Pledgor, and there exist no options or preemption rights in respect of any such Securities.

16. PLEDGORS OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE, ETC. The obligations of each Pledgor under this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever (other than termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 18 hereof) including, without limitation: (a) any renewal, extension, amendment or modification of or addition or supplement to or deletion from any Secured Debt Agreement or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any assignment or transfer of any thereof; (b) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other

17. REMEDIES. The Secured Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of Pledgee acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted by the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents. The Secured Creditors further agree that this Agreement may not be enforced against any director, officer, employee, or stockholder of any Pledgor (except to the extent such stockholder is also a Pledgor hereunder).

18. TERMINATION; RELEASE.

(a) On the Termination Date (as defined below), this Agreement and the security interest created hereby shall automatically terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth in Section 11 hereof shall survive any such termination), and the Pledgee, at the request and expense of the respective Pledgor, will execute and deliver to such Pledgor a proper instrument or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement (including, without limitation, UCC financing statement amendments and instruments of satisfaction, discharge and/or reconveyance) and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or delivered pursuant to this Agreement, together with any undated stock, partnership or membership powers with respect thereto and together with any moneys at the time held by the Pledgee or any of its sub-agents hereunder. As used in this Agreement, Termination Date shall mean the date upon which the Total Commitment have been terminated, no Note under the Credit Agreement is outstanding (and all Loans have been repaid in full), all Letters of Credit have been terminated or Cash Collateralized pursuant to the Credit Agreement and all Obligations then outstanding (other than contingent indemnities described in Section 12.4 of the Credit Agreement with respect to which no claim has been asserted) have been irrevocably paid in full in cash.

(b) In the event that any part of the Collateral is sold, conveyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of in connection with a sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition permitted by Section 8.3, Section 8.4 or Section 8.6 of the Credit Agreement or is otherwise sold, conveyed, transferred or otherwise disposed by Company or any Pledgor, to the extent such sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition is permitted by the Credit Agreement

or the requisite consent or waiver to such transaction is obtained or the Collateral is otherwise released at the direction of the Required Lenders (or all Lenders if required by Section 12.1 of the Credit Agreement), the Pledgee, at the request and expense of the respective Pledgor, will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold or released and has not theretofore been delivered pursuant to this Agreement together with any undated stock, partnership or membership powers with respect thereto. The Pledgee shall also be entitled to and is hereby authorized and directed to duly assign, transfer and deliver such of the Collateral as provided in Section 12.19(b) of the Credit Agreement. In the event any Pledgor is released from the Subsidiary Guaranty in accordance with the terms of any of the Loan Documents, such Pledgor shall be released from this Agreement and the Collateral owned by such Pledgor shall be released from this Agreement.

(c) At any time that the respective Pledgor desires that Collateral be released as provided in the foregoing subsection (a) or (b), as the case may be, it shall deliver to the Pledgee a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to such subsection (a) or (b), as the case may be.

20. WAIVER; AMENDMENT. None of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any manner whatsoever unless in writing duly signed by each Pledgor and the Pledgee (with the written consent of the Required Lenders or, to the extent required by Section 12.1 of the Credit Agreement with the consent of each of the Lenders); provided, however, that any change, waiver, modification or variance affecting the rights and benefits of a single Class (as defined below) of Secured Creditors (and not all Secured Creditors in a like or similar manner) shall require the written consent of the Requisite Creditors (as defined below) of such affected Class. For the purpose of this Agreement, the term Class shall mean each class of Secured Creditors, i.e., whether (i) the Bank Creditors as holders of the Credit Agreement Obligations or (ii) the Other Creditors as the holders of the Other Obligations. For the purpose of this Agreement, the term Requisite Creditors of any Class shall mean each of (A) with respect to the Credit Agreement Obligations, the Required Lenders and (B) with respect to the Other Obligations, the holders of 51% of all obligations outstanding from time to time under the Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements.

21. MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each of the parties hereto and its successors and assigns. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The headings in this Agreement are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or define the meaning hereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one instrument. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall prove to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement which shall remain binding on all parties hereto.

22. RECOURSE. This Agreement is made with full recourse to each Pledgor and pursuant to and upon all the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements on the part of each Pledgor contained herein, in the other Loan Documents, in the Interest Rate Protection or Other Hedging Agreements and otherwise in writing in connection herewith or therewith.

23. ADDITIONAL PLEDGORS. It is understood and agreed that any Subsidiary of Company that is required to become a party to this Agreement after the Effective Date pursuant to Section 7.12 or 7.14 of the Credit Agreement shall automatically become a Pledgor hereunder, subject to Section 2.3 hereof, upon the execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of Annex B hereto and the delivery of same to the Pledgee, with the same force and effect as if originally named as a party herein. The execution and delivery of any instrument adding a new party to this Agreement shall not require the consent of any party hereunder or any Secured Creditor. The rights and obligations of each party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new party hereto.
