Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 7, 2017, Willis Towers Watson Public Limited Company (“WTW”), together with its wholly owned subsidiary, Trinity Acquisition plc (“TAP”), entered into a $1,250,000,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), that will mature on March 7, 2022 (unless extended in accordance with the terms thereof). The terms of the Credit Facility are set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2017 (the “Credit Agreement”), among, TAP, as the borrower, WTW, as the parent, the lenders party thereto and Barclays Bank PLC, as Administrative Agent.

$409,375,000 of the net available proceeds of the Credit Facility will be used to retire all of the debt under that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2011, among TAP, as the borrower, WTW, as the parent, the lenders party thereto and Barclays Bank PLC, as Administrative Agent. Remaining proceeds of the loans and other credit extensions under the Credit Facility will be available for working capital, capital expenditures, permitted acquisitions and other lawful corporate purposes.

Amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility shall bear interest at a rate equal to (a) LIBOR plus 1.00% to 1.75% for Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (b) the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1/2 of 1%, (ii) the “prime rate” quoted by The Wall Street Journal, and (iii) LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus 0.00% to 0.75%, in each case, based upon WTW’s guaranteed senior-unsecured long term debt rating for Base Rate Loans. In addition, TAP will pay (a) a commitment fee equal to 0.10% to 0.25% of the committed amount of the Credit Facility that has not been borrowed and (b) a letter of credit fee for each outstanding letter of credit equal to (i) the daily amount available to be drawn under such letter of credit multiplied by (ii) 1.00% to 1.75%, in each case, based upon WTW’s guaranteed, senior-unsecured long term debt rating.

Conditions to each borrowing under the Credit Facility include the accuracy and completeness in all material respects of all representations and warranties in the loan documentation and that no default under the Credit Facility shall exist, or would result from such borrowing or the application of the proceeds thereof.

Voluntary prepayment is permitted under the Credit Facility without penalty or premium in amounts greater than $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. In addition, the Credit Facility requires mandatory prepayment in certain circumstances.

WTW is subject to various affirmative and negative covenants and reporting obligations under the Credit Facility. These include, among others, limitations on subsidiary indebtedness, liens, sale and leaseback transactions, certain investments, fundamental changes, assets sales and restricted payments, and maintenance of certain financial covenants. Events of default under the Credit Facility include non-payment of amounts due to the lenders, violation of covenants, incorrect representations, defaults under other material indebtedness, judgments and specified insolvency-related events, certain ERISA events, and invalidity of loan documents, subject to, in certain instances, specified thresholds, cure periods and exceptions. The obligations of TAP under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by WTW and certain of its subsidiaries pursuant to the Amended and Restated Guaranty Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2017 (the “Guaranty”), among TAP, WTW, the other guarantors party thereto and Barclays Bank PLC, as Administrative Agent. The obligations of WTW under the Credit Facility are unsecured.

The descriptions of the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty, copies of which are attached as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

Within the limits of each Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.01. Committed Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans.

2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

(a) Each Committed Borrowing, each conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be made upon the relevant Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which, other than the Initial Credit Extension, may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) three Business Days prior to the requested date of (A) any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars or (B) any conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars to Base Rate Loans, (ii) three Business Days (or four Business Days in the case of a Special Notice Currency) prior to the requested date of any Committed Borrowing or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies and (iii) on the requested date of any Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Committed Loans in Dollars. Each telephonic notice by such Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or if such Borrowing is denominated in an Alternative Currency, the equivalent units of such Alternative Currency). Each Borrowing Request (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Borrowing, a conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be converted, (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto and (vi) the currency of the Loans to be borrowed. If the Borrower fails to specify a currency in a Borrowing Request requesting a Borrowing, then the Loans so requested shall be made in Dollars. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Borrowing Request or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then (A) the applicable Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made or continued, as applicable, as Eurocurrency Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month, and (B) the applicable Committed Loans denominated in Dollars shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans or continuation as Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If any Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any such Borrowing Request, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. No Loan may be converted into or continued as a Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Loan and reborrowed in the other currency. A Swing Line Loan may not be borrowed as or converted to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan.

(b) Following receipt of a Borrowing Request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount (and currency) of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the

Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans (in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars) or continuation as Eurocurrency Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month (in the case of Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars), in each case as described in the preceding subsection. Each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the applicable currency not later than 1:00 p.m., in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Loan in an Alternative Currency, in each case on the Business Day specified in the applicable Borrowing Request. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the Initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to such Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of Barclays with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by such Borrower; provided that if, on the date the Borrowing Request with respect to such Borrowing denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency is given by the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding in that same currency, then the proceeds of such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and, second, shall be made available to such Borrower as provided above.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan. During the existence of an Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans (whether in Dollars or any Alternative Currency) without the consent of the Required Lenders, and the Required Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans, other than Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (which shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans at the conclusion of the then-applicable Interest Period), be prepaid or redenominated into Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof and converted to Base Rate Loans, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurocurrency Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of any change in Barclays’ prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

(e) After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than 10 Interest Periods in effect at any time.

(f) Each Lender at its option may make any Eurocurrency Rate Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not (i) affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) shall not result in increased costs or expenses to the Borrowers.

2.03 Letters of Credit.

(a) The Letter of Credit Commitment.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (A) the Applicable Issuing Party, in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, agrees to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the date that is five Business Days prior to the Applicable Maturity Date, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it in accordance with subsection (b) below, in the case of Fronted Letters of Credit in such form as may be approved from time to time by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Company and, in the case of Several Letters of Credit, substantially in the form of Exhibit H or such other form agreed by the Company and the L/C Administrator (with the consent of all Revolving Credit Lenders, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; it being understood that such other form shall be deemed acceptable to all Revolving Credit Lenders unless the L/C Administrator has received notice to the contrary within two Business Days after the L/C Administrator has notified of such other agreed form to the Revolving Credit Lenders)); and (B) the Revolving Credit Lenders severally agree to participate in Fronted Letters of Credit and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (w) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, (x) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of any Revolving Credit Lender plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, (y) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations with respect to Fronted Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Lender shall not exceed the L/C Commitment of such Issuing Lender and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by any Borrower for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by such Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrowers may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. The issuance of a Letter of Credit shall constitute utilization of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

(ii) No Applicable Issuing Party shall issue any Letter of Credit, if:

(A) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit would occur more than 12 months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless all the Revolving Credit Lenders have approved such expiry date; or

(B) the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Revolving Credit Lenders have approved such expiry date, provided that any Letter of Credit that is or at any time becomes an Extended Letter of Credit shall be Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 6.09.

(iii) No Applicable Issuing Party shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Applicable Issuing Party from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the Applicable Issuing Party or (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) any Revolving Credit Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Applicable Issuing Party or (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) any Revolving Credit Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Applicable Issuing Party or (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) any Revolving Credit Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Applicable Issuing Party or (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) any Revolving Credit Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Applicable Issuing Party or (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) any Revolving Credit Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Applicable Issuing Party or (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) any Revolving Credit Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable on the Closing Date and that such Applicable Issuing Party or (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) any Revolving Credit Lender in good faith deems material to it;

(B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Applicable Issuing Party or (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) any Revolving Credit Lender applicable to letters of credit generally;

(C) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Applicable Issuing Party, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $100,000;

(D) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars unless (i) in the case of Fronted Letters of Credit, the Issuing Lender has consented to issue such Fronted Letters of Credit in Sterling and/or Euro or (ii) in the case of Several Letters of Credit, all Revolving Credit Lenders have consented to issue Several Letters of Credit in Sterling and/or Euro;

(E) any Revolving Credit Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Applicable Issuing Party has entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Applicable Issuing Party, including reallocation of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 2.16 or the delivery of Cash Collateral satisfactory to such Applicable Issuing Party, with the relevant Borrower or such Lender to eliminate any Issuing Lender’s any actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which any such Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion; or

(F) the Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder.

(iv) No Applicable Issuing Party shall amend any Letter of Credit if the Applicable Issuing Party or (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) Revolving Credit Lender would not be permitted at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.

(v) No Applicable Issuing Party shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Applicable Issuing Party would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit.

(vi) Each Applicable Issuing Party shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and such Applicable Issuing Party shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Applicable Issuing Party in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included such Applicable Issuing Party with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to such Applicable Issuing Party.

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.

(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the relevant Borrower delivered to the Applicable Issuing Party (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the Applicable Issuing Party and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. at least three Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and such Applicable Issuing Party may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date

of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Applicable Issuing Party: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount and currency thereof, and whether such Letters of Credit is a Fronted Letter of Credit or a Several Letter of Credit; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; (H) the Person (any Borrower or Subsidiary) for whom such Letter of Credit is to be issued; and (I) such other matters as the Applicable Issuing Party may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Applicable Issuing Party (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the Applicable Issuing Party may reasonably require. Additionally, such Borrower shall furnish to such Applicable Issuing Party and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as such Applicable Issuing Party or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the Applicable Issuing Party will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the relevant Borrower and, if not, such Applicable Issuing Party will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless such Applicable Issuing Party has received written notice from any Revolving Credit Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not be satisfied on such date, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Applicable Issuing Party shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of a Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Applicable Issuing Party’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Fronted Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable Issuing Lender a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii) If the relevant Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the Applicable Issuing Party may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that (A) any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the relevant L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each 12-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior written notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a specific day (the “Non-Extension

Notice Date”) in each such 12-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued and (B) no Auto-Extension Letter of Credit shall permit the extension thereof to occur on any date that is after the Applicable Maturity Date. Unless otherwise directed by the Applicable Issuing Party, the relevant Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Applicable Issuing Party for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Applicable Issuing Party to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided that if any such extension results in any such Letter of Credit being or becoming an Extended Letter of Credit, such Borrower shall provide Cash Collateral therefor in accordance with Section 6.09; provided further that the Applicable Issuing Party shall not permit any such extension if (A) such Applicable Issuing Party has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise) or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) with respect to a Fronted Letter of Credit, from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) with respect to a Several Letter of Credit, from the Administrative Agent that a relevant L/C Issuer has elected not to permit such extension and in each such case directing such Applicable Issuing Party not to permit such extension.

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or an advising bank with respect thereto, the Applicable Issuing Party will also deliver (i) in the case of a Fronted Letter of Credit, to the relevant Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (ii) in the case of a Several Letter of Credit, to the relevant Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Credit Lender, a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Applicable Issuing Party shall notify the relevant Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. If such Applicable Issuing Party notifies such Borrower of any payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date of such payment, the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such Applicable Issuing Party through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing on such day in Dollars (or with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in Sterling or Euro, such amount in Sterling or Euro); provided that if such notice is not provided to the Borrower prior to 11:00 a.m. on such payment date, then such Borrower shall reimburse such Applicable Issuing Party through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing not later than 3:00 p.m. on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing fees in respect of such Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Reimbursement Date”). In the case of payments made in respect of Several Letters of Credit, the L/C Administrator shall

distribute such payments to the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If the relevant Borrower fails to so reimburse the relevant Issuing Lender with respect to a Fronted Letter of Credit by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender who has a participation in such Fronted Letter of Credit of the Reimbursement Date, the Dollar or Dollar Equivalent amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”) and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. In such event, the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the applicable Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Borrowing Request). Any notice given by an Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Revolving Credit Lender (including each Revolving Credit Lender acting as an Issuing Lender) who has a participation in such Fronted Letter of Credit shall, upon receipt of any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i), make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to such Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable Issuing Lender.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 have not been satisfied or for any other reason (including the prior occurrence of the Applicable Maturity Date or any other prior termination of all or any portion of the Commitments of the Lenders to make Committed Loans), the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable Issuing Lender an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest thereon) and shall bear interest at the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv) Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Committed Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any amount drawn under any Fronted Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of such Issuing Lender.

(v) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for amounts drawn under Fronted Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against such Issuing Lender, the relevant Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default; or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by such Borrower of a Committed Loan Borrowing Request). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of such Borrower to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for the amount of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under such Fronted Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Lender at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Issuing Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the applicable Issuing Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any Issuing Lender has made a payment in respect of any drawing under any Fronted Letter of Credit issued by it and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such Issuing Lender any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the relevant Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Issuing Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse the Applicable Issuing Party for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that any Borrower or any other Person may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Applicable Issuing Party or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any payment by the Applicable Issuing Party under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the Applicable Issuing Party under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

(v) any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any Guarantee for all or any of the Obligations of the Borrowers in respect of such Letter of Credit; or

(vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the relevant Borrower or any other Person.

Each Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, such Borrower will promptly, but no later than two Business Days following receipt of such copy, notify the Applicable Issuing Party.

(f) Several Letters of Credit.

(i) The L/C Administrator is hereby authorized to execute and deliver each Several Letter of Credit and each amendment to a Several Letter of Credit on behalf of each Revolving Credit Lender provided that, upon request of the relevant Borrower, such Several Letter of Credit or amendment will be executed by each Revolving Credit Lender. The L/C Administrator shall use the Applicable Percentage of each Revolving Credit Lender as its “Commitment Share” under each Several Letter of Credit, provided that each Limited Fronting Lender (if any), in its capacity as such, shall, in addition to its own “Commitment Share” as a Revolving Credit Lender, be deemed to have a “Commitment Share” (or equivalent term) equal to the Applicable Percentage (or portion thereof, if applicable) of each Non-SLC Bank for which such Limited Fronting Lender acts in such capacity under such Several Letter of Credit. The L/C Administrator shall not amend any Several Letter of Credit to change the “Commitment Shares” of any Revolving Credit Lender or add or delete a Revolving Credit Lender liable thereunder unless such amendment is done in connection with a Limited Fronting Lender Agreement in accordance with Section 2.03(f)(iv), an assignment in accordance with Section 10.6, a change in the Revolving Credit Lenders and/or the Applicable Percentages as a result of any increase in the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.14, an extension of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 2.17 or any other addition or replacement of a Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Revolving Credit Lender (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each Limited Fronting Lender) hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the L/C Administrator its true and lawful attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of such Revolving Credit Lender with full power of substitution and revocation in its own name or in the name of the L/C Administrator to issue, execute and deliver, as the case may be, each Several Letter of Credit and each amendment to a Several Letter of Credit and to carry out the purposes of this Agreement with respect to Several Letters of Credit. Upon request, each Revolving Credit Lender shall execute such powers of attorney or other documents as any beneficiary of any Several Letter of Credit may reasonably request to evidence the authority of the L/C Administrator to execute and deliver such Several Letter of Credit and any amendment or other modification thereto on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders. To the extent that the L/C Administrator has not received funds from a Revolving Credit Lender with respect to a Several Letter of Credit, the L/C Administrator shall only forward the funds actually received to the beneficiary.

(ii) Each Revolving Credit Lender (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each Limited Fronting Lender) agrees with the L/C Administrator that, if a draft is paid under any Several Letter of Credit for which such L/C Administrator is not reimbursed in full by the applicable Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the L/C Administrator upon demand at the L/C Administrator’s address for notices specified herein an amount in Dollars (in the case of a Several Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars), Sterling or Euro (in the case of a Several Letter of Credit denominated in Sterling or Euro) equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Share (and, in the case of each Limited Fronting Lender, the Commitment Share (or the portion thereof for which it has agreed to be a Limited Fronting Lender) of each applicable Non-SLC Bank). In the event that a Limited Fronting Lender pays the Commitment Share of a Non-SLC Bank, such Non-SLC Bank shall pay such Commitment Share (or the relevant portion thereof, if applicable) to such Limited Fronting Lender in purchase of its participation in such payment. Each Lender’s (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each Limited Fronting Lender’s and each Non-SLC Bank’s) obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against L/C Administrator, any Borrower or any other Person; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default; or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(iii) The obligations of each Revolving Credit Lender under and in respect of each Several Letter of Credit are several, and the failure by any Revolving Credit Lender to perform its obligations hereunder or under any Several Letter of Credit shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers toward any other party hereto nor shall any other such party (other than Limited Fronting Lenders with respect to Several Letters of Credit they have issued on behalf of Non-SLC Banks) be liable for the failure by such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder or under any Several Letter of Credit.

(iv) In the event that any Revolving Credit Lender agrees (in its sole discretion) to act as a Limited Fronting Lender for any Non-SLC Bank upon such terms and conditions as such parties may agree (including fees payable by such Non-SLC Bank to such Limited Fronting Lender) (such agreement, a “Limited Fronting Lender Agreement”), the following provisions shall apply (in addition to any other provisions hereof relating to Limited Fronting Lenders):

(A) upon the issuance of any Several Letter of Credit pursuant hereto, with respect to any Non-SLC Bank, each applicable Limited Fronting Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of such Non-SLC Bank, agrees (A) to issue through the L/C Administrator, in addition to its own obligations as a Revolving Credit Lender under such Several Letter of Credit, severally, such Several Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Non-SLC Bank’s Commitment Share of the stated amount of such Several Letter of Credit (or the

portion thereof for which such Limited Fronting Lender has agreed to be a Limited Fronting Lender), and (B) to amend or extend each Several Letter of Credit previously issued by it as a Limited Fronting Lender for such Non-SLC Approved Bank; and

(B) with respect to any Several Letter of Credit issued by a Limited Fronting Lender pursuant to clause (i) above for a Non-SLC Bank, such Non-SLC Bank agrees to purchase participations in the obligations of such Limited Fronting Lender under such Several Letter of Credit in the amount attributable to such Non-SLC Bank. Without any further action on the part of any party, each Limited Fronting Lender hereby grants to each applicable Non-SLC Bank for which it is acting as a Limited Fronting Lender hereunder, and each such Non-SLC Bank hereby acquires from such Limited Fronting Lender, a participation in such Limited Fronting Lender’s Commitment Share of each Several Letter of Credit for which such Limited Fronting Lender is acting as a Limited Fronting Lender on behalf of such Non-SLC Bank hereunder in the amount attributable to such Non-SLC Bank. Each such Non-SLC Bank purchasing a participation hereunder acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire such participations in respect of Several Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each such Non-SLC Bank hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the L/C Administrator, for account of the applicable Limited Fronting Lender, an amount equal to the amount of each payment made by such Limited Fronting Lender in respect of the portion of each such Several Letter of Credit in which such Non-SLC Bank holds a participation, promptly upon the request of such Limited Fronting Lender, at any time from the time such payment is made until such payment is reimbursed by the applicable Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason. Such payment by such Non-SLC Bank shall be made for the account of the applicable Limited Fronting Lender without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. To the extent that any Non-SLC Bank has made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse a Limited Fronting Lender in respect of any participation interests purchased hereunder in respect of any Several Letter of Credit, promptly following receipt by the L/C Administrator of any payment from the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.03(c) in respect of such Several Letter of Credit, the L/C Administrator shall distribute such payment to such Limited Fronting Lender and such Non-SLC Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Non-SLC Bank in respect of its participation pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Limited Fronting Lender for any payment made in respect of any drawing under a Several Letter of Credit shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse the amount of such drawing.

(C) Each Revolving Credit Lender that agrees to act as a Limited Fronting Lender for any Non-SLC Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the L/C Administrator) of such agreement and of any termination or expiration of such agreement.

(D) In the event that, pursuant to this Section 2.03(f), any Revolving Credit Lender agrees to act as a Limited Fronting Lender for any other Revolving Credit Lender that becomes a Non-SLC Bank, such Revolving Credit Lender shall receive such compensation therefor as such Non-SLC Bank and such Revolving Credit Lender may agree. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Revolving Credit Lender shall have any obligation to agree to act hereunder as a Limited Fronting Lender for any other Revolving Credit Lender.

(E) To the extent that the Parent and the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any indemnifiable amount required to be paid under subsection (b) of Section 10.04 to a Lender acting in its capacity as Limited Fronting Lender with respect to any outstanding Several Letters of Credit, the relevant Non-SLC Bank agrees to pay to the Limited Fronting Lender such indemnity payment.

(g) Non-SLC Bank. Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts, at all times from and after the Closing Date, (a) to have internal policies that authorize it to issue Several Letters of Credit or (b) if such Revolving Credit Lender is a Non-SLC Bank, to agree with another Revolving Credit Lender which is not a Non-SLC Bank, as provided in Section 2.03(f), that such Revolving Credit Lender shall (in its sole discretion) act as the Limited Fronting Lender for such Non-SLC Bank with respect to any Several Letters of Credit which are outstanding at the time such Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Non-SLC Bank and/or are issued during the period that such Revolving Credit Lender is a Non-SLC Bank.

(h) Role of Applicable Issuing Party. Each Revolving Credit Lender and the Borrowers agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Applicable Issuing Party shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Applicable Issuing Party, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any Applicable Issuing Party shall be liable to any Revolving Credit Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Required Lenders; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. Each Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude such Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the applicable L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Administrator any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or

assignee of any Applicable Issuing Party shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.03(e); provided that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers may have a claim against such L/C Issuer or L/C Administrator, and such L/C Issuer or L/C Administrator may be liable to the Borrowers, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct (as opposed to indirect, special, punitive, consequential or exemplary) damages suffered by the Borrowers which a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final nonappealable judgment were caused by such L/C Issuer’s or such L/C Administrator’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s or such L/C Administrator’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the applicable L/C Issuer and the L/C Administrator’s may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such L/C Issuer and such or L/C Administrator’s shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a 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.

(i) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Applicable Issuing Party and the Borrowers when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

(j) Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in Dollars for each outstanding Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the average daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided that any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the Applicable Issuing Party pursuant to this Section 2.03 or Section 2.15(a) shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Applicable Issuing Party for its own account. For purposes of computing the average daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.09. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the fifth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Applicable Maturity Date, on the date of expiry of any Extended Letter of Credit occurring after the Applicable Maturity Date, and thereafter on demand, and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. For the avoidance of doubt, Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue, and be due and payable, on any Extended Letter of Credit notwithstanding its expiry being after the Applicable Maturity Date (and the Applicable Rate shall continue to be computed for such purpose during such period). If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the average daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(k) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges. The Company shall pay directly to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Fronted Letter of Credit, at the rate as shall be separately agreed by the Company and such Issuing Lender), computed on the average daily amount available to be drawn under such Fronted Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the fifth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Fronted Letter of Credit, on the Applicable Maturity Date, on the date of expiry of any Extended Letter of Credit occurring after the Applicable Maturity Date and thereafter on demand. For the avoidance of doubt, the fronting fee shall accrue, and be due and payable, on any Extended Letter of Credit notwithstanding its expiry being after the Applicable Maturity Date. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Fronted Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.09. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay directly to the Applicable Issuing Party for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such Applicable Issuing Party relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(l) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(m) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrowers shall be obligated to reimburse the Applicable Issuing Party hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrowers hereby acknowledge that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrowers, and that the Borrowers’ business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

(n) Extended Letters of Credit. If on the Applicable Maturity Date with respect to any Letter of Credit such Letter of Credit remains outstanding, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and notwithstanding the occurrence of the Applicable Maturity Date with respect to such Letter of Credit or the termination of the Commitments of the Lenders to make Committed Loans hereunder for any other reason, the Administrative Agent, the Applicable Issuing Party, the Borrowers and the Revolving Credit Lenders agree that:

(i) the obligation of the L/C Issuers contained herein with respect to honoring draws under such Letter of Credit shall continue with respect to such Letter of Credit (in accordance with its terms) until the expiry of such Letter of Credit;

(ii) the obligations of the Borrowers contained herein to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Applicable Issuing Party or any Revolving Credit Lenders with

respect to any drawings or any other L/C Obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit shall continue with respect to such Letter of Credit (in accordance with its terms) until the expiry of all Letters of Credit and the payment of all L/C Obligations;

(iii) if it has not done so already, the relevant Borrower shall provide Cash Collateral with respect to such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 6.09;

(iv) the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders contained herein to make available their respective Applicable Percentages of any Unreimbursed Amount with respect to Fronted Letters of Credit, or to otherwise purchase participations in or reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any Unreimbursed Amounts, shall terminate with respect to such Letter of Credit upon the Applicable Maturity Date with respect to such Fronted Letter of Credit if and to the extent the relevant Borrower has provided Cash Collateral with respect to such Fronted Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 6.09, has delivered a backstop letter of credit to the applicable Issuing Lender with respect to such Fronted Letter of Credit or has otherwise provided credit support, in each case reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender; and

(v) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.03(n)(iv), all provisions contained herein as are related to any Letter of Credit and any L/C Obligations (including provisions related to Cash Collateral and Defaulting Lenders, the occurrence of any Default, and the availability of all remedies and rights of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the L/C Administrator and/or the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect thereto) shall continue in full force and effect until the expiry of all Letters of Credit and the repayment in full of all Obligations, without regard to the occurrence of the Applicable Maturity Date with respect to such Letter of Credit.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(n), no Applicable Issuing Party shall, and no Applicable Issuing Party shall have any obligation to, issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit after the day that is five Business Days prior to the Applicable Maturity Date with respect to such Letter of Credit, and no Letter of Credit may have an expiry date that is later than the applicable Letter of Credit Expiration Date.

(o) Reporting. Not later than the third Business Day following the last day of each month (or at such other intervals as the Administrative Agent and the Applicable Issuing Party shall agree), each Applicable Issuing Party shall provide to the Administrative Agent a schedule of the Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, showing the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, the account party, the original face amount (if any), the expiration date, and the reference number of any Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during such month, and showing the aggregate amount (if any) payable by the Borrowers to such Applicable Issuing Party during such month.

(p) Existing Letters of Credit. On the Closing Date, (i) the Existing Letters of Credit shall be automatically and without further action by the parties thereto be deemed to be Fronted Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.03 for the account of the Company and subject to the provisions hereof, and for this purpose the fees specified in Section 2.03 shall be payable (in substitution for any fees set forth in the applicable letter of credit reimbursement

agreements or applications relating to such Existing Letters of Credit) as if such Existing Letters of Credit had been issued on the Closing Date, (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of such Existing Letters of Credit shall be included in the calculation of Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations and (iii) all liabilities of the Company with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Obligations.

2.04 Swing Line Loans.

(a) Swing Line Loans.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, to make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrowers from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period with respect to the Facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of its pro rata share of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans of the Revolving Credit Lenders acting as Swing Line Lenders, may exceed the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of any Revolving Credit Lender, plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations shall not exceed such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; and provided, further, that the Borrowers shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan.

(ii) Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04.

(iii) Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan made and maintained in Dollars. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the relevant Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the Facility times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon any Borrower’s irrevocable notice to a Swing Line Lender (as selected by such Borrower in its sole discretion) and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by such Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date (or such other time as may be agreed by such Borrower and the applicable Swing Line Lender), and shall specify (i) the amount to be

borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $100,000 and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the applicable Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Borrowing Request, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the relevant Borrower. Promptly after receipt by a Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Borrowing Request, such Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Borrowing Request and, if not, such Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless a Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Revolving Credit Lender who would have a participation in such Swing Line Loan) prior to 3:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing such Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a)(i) or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Swing Line Lender will, not later than 4:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Borrowing Request, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to such Borrower either (x) at its office by crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of such Swing Line Lender in immediately available funds or (y) by wire transfer to such other account as such Borrower, in either case, may request. Promptly thereafter, such Swing Line Lender will provide confirmation to the Administrative Agent that the Swing Line Loan has been made available.

(i) Each Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of any Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes such Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Revolving Credit Lender who has a participation in a Swing Line Loan of such Borrower make a Base Rate Loan in Dollars under the Facility in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Facility of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Borrowing Request for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. Each Swing Line Lender shall furnish the relevant Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Borrowing Request promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Borrowing Request available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of such Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Borrowing Request, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan in Dollars to the relevant Borrower under the Facility in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the relevant Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Committed Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans under the Facility submitted by a Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by such Swing Line Lender that each of the Revolving Credit Lenders who have participations in such Swing Line Loan fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and such Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), such Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the relevant Swing Line Lender submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the relevant Swing Line Lender, the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrowers to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any Revolving Credit Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the relevant Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, such Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Applicable Percentage of the Facility thereof in the same funds as those received by such Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If any payment received by a Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by such Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to such Swing Line Lender its Applicable Percentage of the Facility thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of such Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. Each Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrowers for interest on the Swing Line Loans made by it; provided that the failure of a Swing Line Lender to so invoice the Borrowers shall not affect the Borrowers’ obligations with respect to Swing Line Loans to pay such interest. Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the relevant Swing Line Lender.

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The relevant Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the relevant Swing Line Lender.

2.05 Prepayments.

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrowers may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must specify the principal amounts thereof and must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, (B) three Business Days (or four Business Days, in the case of prepayment of Committed Loans denominated in Special Notice Currencies) prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies and (C) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; and (ii) any prepayment of Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurocurrency Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage). If such notice is given, the relevant Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. If the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers at any time that the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings at such time exceed an amount equal to 105% of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall prepay Committed Loans and/or Swing Line Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such Total Revolving Credit Outstandings as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) unless after the prepayment in full of the Committed Loans and Swing Line Loans the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings exceed 100% of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect. The Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time after the initial deposit of such Cash Collateral, (i) request that additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to protect against the results of further exchange rate fluctuations and (ii) release all or a portion of such Cash Collateral so long as after giving effect to such release the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings shall not exceed 100% of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect.

2.06 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments. The Company may, at its option and upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Facility, or from time to time permanently reduce in part the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than three Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, (iv) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, such Swing Line Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess, (v) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, such Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess and (vi) if (A) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment is reduced at any time pursuant to this Section 2.06, (B) the amount thereof after giving effect to such reduction is less than $250,000,000 and (C) at such time Extended Commitments are outstanding, the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Sublimit and the Swing Line Sublimit shall be concurrently decreased by an amount equal to the difference between $250,000,000 and the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment as so reduced; provided that such reduction shall be allocated to the Letter of Credit Sublimit and the Swing Line Sublimit at the direction of the Company or, in the absence of such direction, pro rata between the Letter of Credit Sublimit and the Swing Line Sublimit; provided, further, that, upon any such partial reduction of the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit, unless the Company, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lenders or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, otherwise agree, the amount of the L/C Commitments of the Issuing Lenders and the Swing Line Commitment of the Swing Line Lender will be reduced proportionately by the amount of such reduction. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment. Any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment

shall be applied to the Commitments of each Revolving Credit Lender according to its Applicable Percentage. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment shall be paid on the effective date of such termination, notwithstanding any later payment date provided for herein. In addition, all Non-Extended Commitments shall terminate automatically and without any further action on the Original Revolving Credit Maturity Date and all Extended Commitments shall terminate automatically and without any further action on the Extended Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

2.07 Repayment of Loans. Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders on the Applicable Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of any Committed Loans outstanding on such date that mature on such date.

2.08 Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and (iii) each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) (i) Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) exists, the Borrowers shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

2.09 Fees.

(a) Commitment Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans (which for the purpose of this provision shall not include Swing Line Loans) and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.16. The commitment fees set forth above shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during

which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period. The commitment fees set forth above shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

(b) Other Fees. The Company shall pay (A) to the Arrangers for their own respective accounts, in Dollars, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Arranger Fee Letter and (B) to the Administrative Agent for its own account, in Dollars, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Agency Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever, except, with respect to the Agency Fee Letter, as specified therein.

(c) The Company shall pay to the Lenders, in Dollars, such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing 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.

2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans based on the “prime rate” pursuant to clause (a) or (b) of the definition of “Base Rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year), or, in the case of interest in respect of Committed Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.11 Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Revolving Credit Note, which shall evidence such

Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Revolving Credit Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Revolving Credit Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Revolving Credit Lender of participations in Swing Line Loans and/or Letters of Credit, as applicable. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Revolving Credit Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Committed Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Committed Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Revolving Credit Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, the relevant Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, the relevant Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent (i) after 1:00 p.m., in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrowers shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02

(or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans (in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars) or the Cost of Funds Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Rate Loans (in all other cases). If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the relevant Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the relevant Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by a Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the relevant Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or any Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the relevant Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each Lender and each Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or any Issuing Lender, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate. A notice of the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(d) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall promptly return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(e) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Committed Loans, to fund participations in Swing Line Loans, to issue and fund participations in Letters of Credit, and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c), are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to issue any Letter of Credit, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c).

(f) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders.

(a) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (i) Obligations due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (y) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders holding Loans hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (ii) Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the amount of such Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (y) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders holding Loans hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in Loans and sub-participations in Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations of the other Lenders, as applicable, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Obligations then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be; provided that:

(i) if any such participations or sub-participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or sub-participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender and including pursuant to any amendment permitted

pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.17), (B) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.15, or (C) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or sub-participations in Swing Line Loans or L/C Obligations to any assignee or participant.

(b) Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrowers rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

2.14 Increase in Commitments.

(a) Upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the applicable Lenders), the Company may from time to time request the establishment of one or more new revolving commitments (a “New Loan Commitment”) hereunder, in an aggregate amount for all such New Loan Commitments not in excess of $500,000,000; provided that any New Loan Commitment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $50,000,000 or a whole increment of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. The Company (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify in such notice (i) the principal amount of the requested New Loan Commitment and (ii) the date (the “Increase Effective Date”) on which the Company proposes that such New Loan Commitment shall be effective (which shall in no event be less than 15 Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within at least ten Business Days of the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders whether or not it agrees to provide a portion of the requested New Loan Commitment (and, if so, the principal amount it proposes to provide). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation to provide any portion of the requested New Loan Commitment and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of such Lender. Any Lender not responding by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date ten Business Days following delivery of such notice shall be deemed to have declined to provide any portion of the requested New Loan Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company of the Lenders’ responses to the requested New Loan Commitment. To achieve the full amount of a requested New Loan Commitment and subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent (and in the case of a New Loan Commitment for Committed Loans, each Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender) pursuant to Section 10.06, the Company may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Company shall determine the final allocation of the requested New Loan Commitment; provided that the Company shall not be required to allocate any portion of such New Loan Commitment to existing Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Lenders of the final allocation of the requested New Loan Commitment.

(b) Each New Loan Commitment shall become effective as of the related Increase Effective Date; provided that:

(i) no Event of Default shall exist on such Increase Effective Date before or after giving effect to such New Loan Commitment and to the making of any loans (in the case of new loans under the Facility, the “New Loans”) pursuant thereto;

(ii) the conditions of Section 4.02(a) shall be met as of such Increase Effective Date;

(iii) the Company shall be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.08 on the Increase Effective Date after giving effect to all Loans to be made on the Increase Effective Date and for the most recently ended fiscal quarter;

(iv) the proceeds of all New Loans shall be used for purposes permitted under Section 6.08;

(v) the maturity date of a New Loan Commitment shall not be earlier than the Extended Revolving Credit Maturity Date;

(vi) such New Loan Commitment shall be effected pursuant to a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the lenders providing the New Loans (the “New Lenders”);

(vii) the New Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment with all other Loans and no New Loans shall be secured by or receive the benefit of any collateral, credit support or security that does not secure or support the existing Loans;

(viii) each New Loan Commitment shall be a Revolving Credit Commitment and part of the Facility (and not a separate facility or class hereunder), each New Lender thereunder shall be, and shall have all the rights of, a Revolving Credit Lender and the New Loans made by it shall be Committed Loans for all purposes of this Agreement and the terms and provisions of such New Loan Commitment and the related New Loans that are Committed Loans shall be identical to those of the existing Revolving Credit Commitments and existing Committed Loans;

(ix) all fees and expenses then due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender) with respect to the New Loan Commitment and the New Loans shall have been paid;

(x) the Administrative Agent shall have received such opinions, resolutions, certificates and other documents and instruments related to such New Loan Commitments as it shall reasonably request; and

(xi) the other terms and documentation in respect of any New Loan Commitment, to the extent not consistent with this Agreement as in effect prior to the Increase Effective Date, shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(c) On each Increase Effective Date, subject to the foregoing terms and conditions, each New Lender participating in the related New Loan Commitment shall become a Lender hereunder.

(d) In the case of New Loans, the Company shall prepay any Committed Loans outstanding on the applicable Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) and borrow Committed Loans from the New Lenders to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Committed Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section and if there are Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit then outstanding, the participations of the Revolving Credit Lenders in such Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit will be automatically adjusted to reflect the Applicable Percentages of all the Revolving Credit Lenders after giving effect to the related New Loan Commitment.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended or amended and restated to effect such changes as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.14, which amendment (which may be incorporated in the applicable Joinder Agreement) shall be executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the New Lenders (but shall not be required to be executed by any other Lenders and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 10.01, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than Lenders providing any New Loan Commitments established thereby). Such amendment may provide for the inclusion, as appropriate, of additional Lenders in any required vote or action of the Required Lenders, as appropriate. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.12 or Section 10.01 to the contrary.

2.15 Cash Collateral.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Applicable Issuing Party (i) if the applicable Issuing Lender has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the date five Business Days prior to the Applicable Maturity Date with respect to a Letter of Credit, any L/C Obligation with respect to such Letter of Credit for any reason remains outstanding, the relevant Borrower shall, in each case, promptly (and in any event within three Business Days from its receipt of such request) Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations. In addition, (x) Letters of Credit shall be Cash Collateralized to the extent provided in Section 2.17, (y) Extended Letters of Credit shall be Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 6.09 and (z) at any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly following receipt of a written request from the Administrative Agent or any applicable Issuing Lender (and in any event within three Business Days from its receipt of such request), the relevant Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Barclays. Each Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as

security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.15(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the relevant Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent (and in any event within three Business Days from its receipt of such demand), pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.15 or Sections 2.03, 2.05, 2.16, 6.09 or 8.02 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, obligations to fund participations with respect thereto (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.06(b)(vi))) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that (x) Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.15 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.03), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and each L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

2.16 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent with respect to this Agreement for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to or received by the Administrative Agent from such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any

amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Applicable Issuing Party or the applicable Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.15; fourth, as the Company may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan or Several Letter of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans and Several Letters of Credit under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Fronted Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.15; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Applicable Issuing Party or the applicable Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Applicable Issuing Party or the applicable Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company against such Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and, eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and the L/C Borrowings owed to, all the non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that 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 clause (ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. (x) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fees payable under Section 2.09(a) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the 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 (y) each Defaulting Lender shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.03(i).

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Company shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time,

the Company shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the sum of the Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans of any non-Defaulting Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject to Section 10.20, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from such Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Company, the Administrative Agent, each Swing Line Lender and the Applicable Issuing Party, each in its sole discretion, agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), 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 the Company while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; 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 Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit. So long as any Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) no Swing Line Lender shall be required to fund any Swing Line Loan unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend or amend any Fronted Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

2.17 Extensions of Revolving Credit Commitments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may, on up to two occasions during the term of this Agreement, request that the Revolving Credit Lenders extend the maturity of their Revolving Credit Commitments and Committed Loans (and the related participations in Swing Line Loans and Fronted Letters of Credit) and that the Issuing Lenders extend the maturity of their respective L/C Commitments, by one year. In order to exercise such right, the Company shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Revolving Credit Lenders) (the “Extension Request”).

(b) The Company may provide an Extension Request to the Administrative Agent no more than one hundred twenty (120) and no fewer than forty-five (45) days prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date. The Extension Request shall set forth the proposed terms of any Extended Lender Obligations to be established, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Facility from which they are to be extended (such non-extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the “Non-Extended Commitments”, such non-extended Committed Loans, the “Non-Extended Committed Loans” and such non-extended L/C Commitments, the “Non-Extended L/C Commitments”, and collectively, the “Non-Extended Lender Obligations”) except (x) the Applicable Maturity Date of any Extended Lender Obligation shall be one year (or two years, in the event the Company exercises its rights under this Section 2.17 on two occasions) later than the Applicable Maturity Date of the applicable Non-Extended Lender Obligations, (y) (A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Commitments and Extended Committed Loans shall be the same as the interest margins with respect to the Non-Extended Commitments and Non-Extended Committed Loans and (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing any Extended Lender Obligations and (z) Extended Lender Obligations may be subject to covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Applicable Maturity Date of the Non-Extended Lender Obligations; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17 or otherwise in this Agreement, (1) no Extended Lender Obligations may be established unless the Minimum Extension Condition with respect thereto has been met; (2) no Extended Lender Obligations shall be secured by or receive the benefit of any collateral, credit support or security that does not secure or support the applicable Non-Extended Lender Obligations; (3) the repayment (other than in connection with a permanent repayment and, if applicable, termination of commitments), the mandatory prepayment and the commitment reduction of any Loans, Commitments or L/C Commitments applicable to any Extended Lender Obligation shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other outstanding Loans, Commitments or L/C Commitments (including all Extended Lender Obligations) (provided that Extended Lender Obligations may, if the Extending Lenders making or committing to any such Extended Lender Obligations so agree, participate on a less than pro rata basis in any voluntary or mandatory repayment or prepayment or commitment reduction hereunder); (4) no Extended Committed Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which the related Non-Extended Committed Loans, as applicable, are repaid unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional prepayment of the related Non-Extended Committed Loans, as applicable; (5) each Lender holding Loans and/or Commitments shall be permitted to participate in the Extended Lender Obligations in accordance with its pro rata share of the Loans and/or Commitments; (6) no Default shall exist on the Extension Date before or after giving effect to any Extended Lender Obligations; (7) Extended Commitments, Extended Committed Loans, Non-Extended Commitments and Non-Extended Committed Loans shall be treated as a single class. No Lender shall have any obligation to convert any Non-Extended Lender Obligations held by it into Extended Lender Obligations pursuant to the Extension Request.

(c) The Company shall provide the Extension Request at least fifteen days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior to the date on which Lenders are requested to respond. Any Lender or Issuing Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitments and/or L/C Commitments converted into Extended Lender Obligations pursuant thereto shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its applicable Revolving Credit Commitments and/or L/C Commitments that it has

elected to convert into Extended Lender Obligations. In the event that the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments and/or L/C Commitments subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Lender Obligations requested pursuant to the Extension Request and/or Revolving Credit Commitments and/or L/C Commitments shall be converted to Extended Lender Obligations on a pro rata basis. The Company shall have the right to seek and accept Extended Lender Obligations from (i) Lenders and/or (ii) third party financial institutions that are not then Lenders (each a “New Extending Lender”), in each case in an amount equal to the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or L/C Commitments of any Lender or Issuing Lender that declines to become an Extending Lender (a “Declining Lender”); provided that each Lender shall have the right to increase its Revolving Credit Commitments and/or L/C Commitments up to the amount of the Declining Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments and/or L/C Commitments before the Company will be permitted to replace a New Extending Lender for any Declining Lender. Each replacement of a New Extending Lender for a Declining Lender shall be effected in accordance with Section 10.13. Each Extending Lender under the Facility shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation to extend any of its Commitments and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of such Lender. Any Lender not responding by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date fifteen days after delivery by the Company of the Extension Request shall be deemed to have declined to extend its Commitments.

(d) Revolving Credit Commitments, Committed Loans and L/C Commitments whose maturity is extended pursuant to this Section are referred to as, in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments, “Extended Commitments”, in the case of Committed Loans, “Extended Committed Loans”, and in the case of L/C Commitments, “Extended L/C Commitments”, respectively, and collectively are referred to as “Extended Lender Obligations”.

(e) Extended Lender Obligations shall be established pursuant to an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (which may include amendments to provisions related to maturity, interest margins, fees or prepayments referenced in Section 2.17(b) and which, in the case of Extended Commitments and Extended L/C Commitments, shall contain provisions for the pro rata treatment of borrowings, payments, voting and other matters between the Non-Extended Commitments, on the one hand, and the Extended Commitments, on the other hand, for such period of time as Non-Extended Commitments and Non-Extended L/C Commitments shall be in effect) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, and the Extending Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 10.01, no Extension Amendment shall require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Lender Obligations established thereby. In connection with the Extension Amendment, the Guarantors shall reaffirm their respective obligations under the Guaranty Agreement pursuant to an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Company shall, if requested by the Administrative Agent, deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as to the enforceability of the Extension Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, the reaffirmation of the Guaranty Agreement and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby. In addition, the Extension Amendment shall contain a representation and warranty by the Parent and the Company that the representations and warranties of (i) the Parent and the Company contained in Article V (other than the representation and warranty contained in Section 5.04(b))

and (ii) each Loan Party contained in each other Loan Document or in any document furnished at any time under or in connection herewith or therewith are true and correct in all material respects (or, if such representation or warranty is itself modified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, it shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date of such Extension Amendment, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, with respect to representations and warranties modified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects) as of such earlier date. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.12 or Section 10.01 to the contrary. Following the execution of the Extension Amendment, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of the percentage of the Facility that has been extended pursuant to this Section 2.17. Until the Original Revolving Credit Maturity Date, all Committed Loans, Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit shall be made or participated in ratably by all Revolving Credit Lenders and thereafter, all Committed Loans, Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit shall be made or participated in ratably by all Extending Lenders with Extended Commitments and all other Revolving Credit Lenders to the extent required by Section 2.03(n)(iv).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) on any date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments are converted to extend the scheduled maturity date in accordance with this Section (the “Extension Date”), the aggregate principal amount of Non-Extended Commitments of each Extending Lender shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Lender Obligations so converted by such Lender on such date and (B) if, on the Extension Date, any Extending Lender has elected to extend the maturity date of some, but not all, of its portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments, such Revolving Credit Commitments (and such Lender’s respective Committed Loans, Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations thereunder) shall each be allocated in the same proportion between the Non-Extended Commitments and the Extended Commitments.

2.18 Designated Borrower.

(a) The Parent may at any time or from time to time upon prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, the Administrative Agent shall withhold such consent if a Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that such Lender is not permitted under applicable law to lend in the jurisdiction where such Subsidiary is organized, and such withholding of consent is deemed reasonable; provided, further that the Administrative Agent may deem that no such prohibition exists unless it shall receive such notice from the relevant Lender within five Business Days thereof), add as a party to this Agreement any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Parent to be a “Borrower” hereunder (such additional party, a “Designated Borrower”) by the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of (i) a Borrower Request and Assumption, (ii) a supplement to the Guaranty Agreement and (iii) such other opinions, certificates or documents as may be required by Section 4.01(a)(ii), (a)(iii) and (a)(iv) and Section 4.01(e), as applicable to such Designated Borrower. Upon such execution, delivery and consent such Subsidiary shall for all purposes be a party thereto as a Borrower and a Loan Party as fully as if it had executed and delivered this Agreement. So long as the principal and interest on any Loan made to any Designated Borrower under this Agreement shall have been repaid or paid in full, all Letters of

Credit issued for the account of such Designated Borrower have expired or been returned and terminated and all other obligations of such Designated Borrower under this Agreement shall have been fully performed, the Parent may, by not less than 5 Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), terminate such Designated Borrower’s status as a “Borrower”.

(b) Each Borrower hereby appoints the Company as its agent, attorney-in-fact and representative for the purpose of (i) making any borrowing requests or other requests required or permitted under this Agreement, (ii) the giving and receipt of notices by and to Borrowers under this Agreement, (iii) the delivery of all documents, reports, financial statements and written materials required to be delivered by Borrowers under this Agreement, and (iv) all other purposes incidental to any of the foregoing. Each Borrower agrees that any action taken by the Company as the agent, attorney-in-fact and representative of the Borrowers shall be binding upon each Borrower to the same extent as if directly taken by such Borrower.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes. (i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers or any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent permitted by applicable Laws be made free and clear of and without reduction, withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes. If, however, any Tax Deduction is required to be made under any applicable Law, such Tax Deduction shall be made in accordance with such Laws. For purposes of this Section 3.01, “applicable Law” includes FATCA.

(ii) If any Tax Deduction is required to be made from any such payment under any applicable Law, then (A) the Borrowers, the Guarantor or the Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws, shall make such Tax Deduction in the minimum amount required by such Laws, (B) the Borrowers, the Guarantor or the Administrative Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount so withheld or deducted by it to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the Tax Deduction is made for or on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrowers or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall (subject to Section 3.01(h)) be increased as necessary so that after any required Tax Deduction (including withholdings or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such Tax Deduction been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrowers shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws.

(c) Tax Indemnifications. (i) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, but subject to subsection (c)(ii) below, each Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this section) withheld or deducted by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent or paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto(other than any penalties attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Lender) whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Borrower shall also, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten days after written demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender or an Issuing Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required by Section 9.10. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the relevant Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(ii) Subsection (c)(i) above shall not apply to the extent that the amount of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (A) is compensated for by an increased payment under subsection (a)(ii)(C) above or (B) would have been compensated for by an increased payment under subsection (a)(ii)(C) above, but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Section 3.01(h) applied.

(d) Evidence of Payments. Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for the Lender or Issuing Lender entitled to the relevant payment a statement under section 975 of the ITA or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant Governmental Authority.

(e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation. (i) Each Lender shall indicate, in the case of a Lender party hereto as of the date of this Agreement, on Schedule 3.01 hereto, or in the case of any Lender which becomes a party hereto after the date of this Agreement, in the Assignment and Assumption and/or Joinder Agreement which it executes on becoming a party hereto, and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any Loan Party, which of the following categories it falls in (A) not a UK Qualifying Lender, (B) a UK Qualifying Lender (other than a UK Treaty Lender), or (C) a UK Treaty Lender. If a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this clause (e)(i) then such Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Loan Party) as if it is not a UK Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category applies (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall promptly inform the relevant Borrowers). For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement, an Assignment and Assumption and/or a Joinder Agreement shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this clause (e)(i).

(ii) Each Lender shall promptly (A) notify each Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which does, or is reasonably likely to, modify or render invalid any claimed exemption from or reduction of Tax (including any exemption from a Tax Deduction), and (B) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that any Borrower, any Guarantor or the Administrative Agent make any Tax Deduction imposed by the United Kingdom.

(iii) Each party shall promptly deliver to such other party, as such other party shall reasonably request, on or prior to the Closing Date, and in a timely fashion thereafter, such documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the Laws of any jurisdiction, duly executed and completed, as are required to be furnished by such party under such Laws in connection with any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, or otherwise in connection with the Loan Documents, or for the purpose of such other party’s compliance with any law, regulation or exchange of information regime with respect to such jurisdiction (including, but not limited to, that other party’s compliance with FATCA).

(iv) In addition, each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the relevant Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the expiration of any previously delivered form or upon the request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Lender that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code and that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of United States federal withholding tax with respect to payments hereunder shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the expiration of any previously delivered form or upon the request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;

(B) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI;

(D) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Lender is not (I) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (II) a “10-percent shareholder” of WNA within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (III) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

(E) executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(v) If a payment made to a Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document would be subject to United States 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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this subsection (e)(v), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or any Issuing Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender determines, in its sole discretion acting in good faith, that it has received and utilized a refund or credit, relief or remission (in lieu of such refund) of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Loan Party an amount equal to such refund or credit, relief or remission (in lieu of such refund) (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this

Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit, relief or remission (in lieu of such refund); provided that such payment to the relevant Loan Party shall not leave the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender, as the case may be, in a worse after-Tax position than it would have been in had the indemnity payment, or additional amount, not been required to be paid) net of all out of pocket expenses and net of any loss or gain realized in the conversion of such funds from or to another currency incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the relevant Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the relevant Loan Party (plus (i) an amount equal to any interest previously received from the relevant Governmental Authority that was paid over to the relevant Loan Party in accordance with this Section 3.01(f); and (ii) any penalties, interest, or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority to the extent that such penalties, interest or other charges are reasonably attributable to any default or delay by the Loan Party in making the required repayment) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to any Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.

(g) Notification by Borrowers. A Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Administrative Agent. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender (save where a notification under paragraph (e) has been made, in circumstances where a notification obligation would otherwise arise under both paragraph (e) and this paragraph (g)) and if the Administrative Agent receives such a notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrowers and the Parent.

(h) UK Qualifying Lenders. A payment shall not be increased under subsection (a) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed by the United Kingdom, if on the date on which the payment falls due (i) the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without such a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a UK Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a UK Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or UK Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority, (ii) the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of clause (a)(ii) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender and (A) an officer of HMRC has given (and not revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 931 of the ITA which relates to the payment and that Lender has received from the

Borrowers a certified copy of that Direction, and (B) the payment could have been made to the Lender without such a Tax Deduction if that Direction had not been made, (iii) the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of clause (a)(ii) of the definition of UK Qualifying Lender and (A) the relevant Lender has not given a UK Tax Confirmation to the Borrowers, and (B) the payment could have been made to the Lender without such a Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a UK Tax Confirmation to the Borrowers, on the basis that the UK Tax Confirmation would have enabled the Borrowers to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the ITA or (iv) the relevant Lender is a UK Treaty Lender and the Loan Party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without such a Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under subsection (i)(i) below.

(i) UK Treaty Lenders. (i) Subject to clause (ii) below, a UK Treaty Lender and each Loan Party which makes a payment to which that UK Treaty Lender is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for that Loan Party to obtain a direction from HMRC authorizing the making of any payment to which such UK Treaty Lender is entitled without a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed by the United Kingdom (and, for the avoidance of doubt, this provision shall apply equally to any additional procedural formalities which are necessary (A) in order to maintain, replace or renew any previous direction, following the expiry or withdrawal of such previous direction or (B) to obtain a direction in respect of an increased Commitment, to the extent such increase is not covered by an existing direction) (for the purposes of this clause (i) an “Authorization”).

(ii) Nothing in clause (i) above shall require a UK Treaty Lender to: (A) register under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme; (B) apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to any Commitment or Loan if it has so registered; or (C) file UK Treaty forms if it has included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with clause (iii) or (v) below and a Borrower has not complied with its obligations under clause (iii) or (v) below.

(iii) (A) A UK Treaty Lender which becomes a party hereto on the day on which this Agreement is entered into that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall include an indication to that effect (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any Loan Party) by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence opposite its name in Schedule 3.01(i).

(B) Where a Lender includes the indication described in subsection (A) above in Schedule 3.01(i), the relevant Borrowers shall, to the extent that that UK Treaty Lender is a Lender under a Commitment or Loan made available to such Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement, file a duly completed Form DTTP2 in respect of such UK Treaty Lender with HMRC (1) within 30 days of the date of this Agreement or (2) in the case of any Borrower which becomes a party hereto after the date of this Agreement, within 30 days of it becoming a Borrower, and, in each case, shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of such filing.

(iv) If a Lender has not included an indication in accordance with subsection (iii)(A) above or subsection (v)(A) below, no Loan Party shall file any form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment or its participation in any Loans.

(v) (A) A Lender which becomes a party hereto after the date of this Agreement that is a UK Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and that wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall include an indication to that effect (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any Loan Party) in the Assignment and Assumption and/or Joinder Agreement which it executes by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in that Assignment and Assumption and/or Joinder Agreement.

(B) Where a UK Treaty Lender which becomes a party hereto after the date of this Agreement includes the indication described in subsection (A) above in the relevant Assignment and Assumption and/or Joinder Agreement, the relevant Borrower shall, to the extent that that UK Treaty Lender becomes a Lender under a Commitment or Loan which is made available to that Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, file a duly completed Form DTTP2 in respect of such UK Treaty Lender with HMRC (1) within 30 days of the date on which that Lender becomes a party hereto or (2) in the case of any Borrower which becomes a party hereto after the date on which the Lender becomes a party hereto, within 30 days of it becoming a Borrower, and shall, in each case, promptly provide such UK Treaty Lender with a copy of such filing.

(vi) If a UK Treaty Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with subsection (iii)(A) or (v)(A) above and

(A) the relevant Borrower has not filed the Form DTTP2 in respect of such UK Treaty Lender (within the time period provided for in subsection (iii)(B) or (v)(B) above (as the case may be), or

(B) the relevant Borrower has filed the Form DTTP2 in respect of such UK Treaty Lender (within the time period provided for in subsection (iii)(B) or (v)(B) above (as the case may be) but (1) such Form DTTP2 has been rejected by HMRC, or (2) HMRC has not given the Borrower authority to make payments to that UK Treaty Lender without a Tax Deduction within 60 days of the date of such Borrower filing the Form DTTP2,

and in each case, the relevant Borrower has notified that UK Treaty Lender in writing, that UK Treaty Lender and the Borrowers shall co-operate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for the relevant Borrowers to obtain authorization to make payments to that UK Treaty Lender without a Tax Deduction.

(vii) If any direction which has been received from HMRC, and which authorizes the making of any payments by a Loan Party to a UK Treaty Lender without a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed by the United Kingdom, expires or is otherwise withdrawn by HMRC, any Loan Party or the relevant UK Treaty Lender in respect of which the direction was issued shall, promptly upon becoming aware of such expiry or withdrawal, inform (where it is the Loan Party which becomes so aware) the relevant UK Treaty Lender or (where it is such UK Treaty Lender which becomes so aware) the Parent. In the event that a UK Treaty Lender holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and such passport expires or is withdrawn, that UK Treaty Lender shall, promptly upon becoming aware of such expiry or withdrawal, inform the Parent.

(j) UK Non-Bank Lenders. A UK Non-Bank Lender which becomes a party hereto on the day on which this Agreement is entered into gives a UK Tax Confirmation to each Loan Party by entering into this Agreement. A UK Non-Bank Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set out in the UK Tax Confirmation.

(k) VAT. (i) All amounts set out or expressed in a Loan Document to be payable by any party to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender (each, a “Finance Party” for the purposes of this subsection (k)) which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for a supply or supplies for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply or supplies, and accordingly, subject to subsection (ii) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that party shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT (and such Finance Party shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such party).

(ii) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Finance Party (the “Recipient”) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and any party hereto other than the Recipient (the “Subject Party”) is required by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of that consideration),

(A) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT), the Subject Party shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT. The Recipient will promptly pay to the Subject Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment obtained by the Recipient from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to such VAT, and

(B) (where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT), the Subject Party shall, following demand

from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the amount of such VAT, but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of such VAT.

(iii) Where this Agreement or any other Loan Document requires any party hereto to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Finance Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

(iv) Any reference in this subsection (k) to any party shall, at any time when such party is treated as a member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated at that time as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under the grouping rules (provided for in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union) or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member state of the European Union) so that a reference to a party shall be construed as a reference to that party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant representative member (or head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be).

(l) Solely for United States income tax purposes, all parties to this Agreement agree that payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers or any Guarantor hereunder shall be treated as payments from sources within the United States.

3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurocurrency Rate Loans (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in Dollars, to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), either prepay or convert all such Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars) or to Loans bearing interest at the Cost of Funds Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Rate Loans (in the case of any other Loan), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates.

(a) If prior to the commencement of the Interest Period for any proposed Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (x) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for the requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) or (y) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Eurocurrency Rate for the requested Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their respective Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent (in the case of clause (y), upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request (a) for a Borrowing of (or conversion to) Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, or (b) for a Borrowing of (or conversion to) a Loan bearing interest at the Cost of Funds Rate plus the Applicable Rate with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, in the case of any other Loan.

(b) If any event described in the first sentence of Section 3.03(a) occurs and results in the application of the Cost of Funds Rate, then at the request of the Administrative Agent, the Parent or the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Parent and the Company shall enter into negotiations for a period of no more than 30 days for the purpose of agreeing to a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest to be applied to the applicable Borrowing (and, to the extent required, any future Borrowings). Any substitute basis agreed upon shall be, with the consent of all Lenders, binding on all of the parties to this Agreement.

3.04 Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate Loans.

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

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e)) or any Issuing Lender;

(ii) except as specifically provided in the last sentence of this Section 3.04(a), subject any Lender or any Issuing Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of Taxation of

payments to such Lender or such Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or such Issuing Lender); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Eurocurrency Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or such Issuing Lender, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. For the avoidance of doubt, subsections (i) through (iii) above shall not apply to the extent any increased costs are (A) attributable to a Tax Deduction required by law to be made by any Loan Party, (B)(1) compensated for by Section 3.01(c) or (B)(2) would have been compensated for by Section 3.01(c) but were not so compensated solely because (a) the relevant Tax is an Excluded Tax or (b) any exception in Section 3.01(c)(ii) (including for the avoidance of doubt any exclusion under section 3.01(h)) applies, or (C) attributable to the willful breach by the relevant Lender or Issuing Lender (or its Affiliates) of any law or regulation.

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

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or any Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this

Section and delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or any Issuing Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e) Additional Reserve Requirements. The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided the Borrowers shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or costs shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrowers shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b) any failure by the Borrowers (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrowers;

(c) any failure by the Borrowers to make payment of any Loan (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency; or

(d) any assignment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 10.13;

including any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract. The Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or any Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, any Issuing Lender, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or any Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender or such Issuing Lender shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or such Issuing Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or any Issuing Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender declines to become an Extending Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any circumstance exists under the last paragraph of Section 10.01 that gives the Borrowers the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, the Company may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

3.07 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Parent has heretofore furnished to the Lenders its consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders equity and cash flows as of and for the

fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, reported on by Deloitte LLP, independent public accountants.

5.11 Disclosure. Neither the Marketing Information nor any of the other reports, financial statements, certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of the Parent or the Company to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of

this Agreement or delivered on or prior to the Closing Date hereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Parent and the Company represent only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time, it being understood that such projections and other forward-looking information are not to be viewed as facts and are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, and that actual results may vary form projected results and such variances may be material.

ARTICLE VI

AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

So long as any Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder or any Loan or other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied (other than contingent Obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted), or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding (unless such Letter of Credit shall be Cash Collateralized or backstopped by a letter of credit or otherwise in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Applicable Issuing Party), the Parent and the Borrowers covenant and agree with the Lenders that:

(b) The Parent and the Company will, and will cause each of the other Subsidiaries to, continue to engage (including after giving effect to any acquisition) only in a business of the type that does not represent a fundamental change in the character of the business of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, conducted by the Parent and its Subsidiaries on the date of this Agreement, and businesses reasonably related thereto.

each Extended Letter of Credit; provided that if the relevant Borrower fails to provide Cash Collateral with respect to any such Extended Letter of Credit by such time, such event shall be treated as a drawing under such Extended Letter of Credit (in an amount equal to 105% of the maximum face amount of each such Letter of Credit, calculated in accordance with Section 1.09), which shall be reimbursed (or participations therein funded) in accordance with Section 2.03(c), with the proceeds being utilized to provide Cash Collateral for such Extended Letter of Credit.

Any Loan Document, at any time after its execution and delivery and for any reason other than as expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder or satisfaction in full of all the Obligations, ceases to be in full force and effect; or the Parent or any Subsidiary (including any Loan Party) contests in any manner the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document; or any Loan Party denies that it has any or further liability or obligation under any Loan Document, or purports to revoke, terminate or rescind any Loan Document; or

(l) Change in Control. There occurs any Change in Control.

ARTICLE IX

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

9.01 Appointment and Authorization of Agents. Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Barclays to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender) and each Issuing Lender, and neither the Company nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions (other than Sections 9.06 and 9.11). It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

Each Issuing Lender and the L/C Administrator shall act on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it and the documents associated

109

therewith, and each Issuing Lender and the L/C Administrator shall have all of the benefits and immunities (a) provided to the Agents in this Article with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Issuing Lender or L/C Administrator in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in this Article and the definition of “Agent-Related Person” included such Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (b) as additionally provided herein with respect to such Issuing Lender or L/C Administrator.

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

9.03 Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall: (i) be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except (in the case of the Administrative Agent) discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and (iii) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Article VIII and Sections 10.01 and 10.03), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct to the extent that such determination is made by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or

110

notice of the occurrence of any Default unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”

(c) No Agent-Related Person shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than (in the case of the Administrative Agent) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to it

9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to any Credit Extension that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender prior to any such Credit Extension. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company or the Parent), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

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

9.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its

111

resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint, in consultation with the Company, a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Cash Collateral held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) continue to hold such Cash Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Any resignation by Barclays as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.06 shall also constitute its resignation as Swing Line Lender, L/C Administrator and Issuing Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender and/or Issuing Lender and/or L/C Administrator, (b) the retiring Swing Line Lender and/or Issuing Lender and/or L/C Administrator shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and (c) the successor Issuing Lender and L/C Administrator shall issue Letters of Credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession and issued by Barclays or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender and L/C Administrator to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender or L/C Administrator with respect to such Letters of Credit; provided that Barclays shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties with respect to all Letters of Credit and all Swing Line Loans outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation pursuant to Section 10.06(i).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary (but without limiting the right of Barclays to resign acting as Administrative Agent at any time pursuant to this Section 9.06) in this Section 9.06, so long as no Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing each such successor Administrative Agent shall be subject to the approval of the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

112

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

9.08 Duties of Other Agents. None of the Agents (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have any rights, powers, obligations, liabilities, responsibilities or duties under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender, the Swing Line Lender, L/C Administrator or Issuing Lender hereunder (as applicable).

9.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, all L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h), 2.03(i), 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h), 2.03(i), 2.09 and 10.04.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or the Issuing Lender any plan of

113

reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or the Issuing Lender in any such proceeding.

9.10 Withholding. To the extent required by any applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any Tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, Tax ineffective or for any other reason, or if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred in connection therewith.

9.11 Guaranty Matters. The Lenders and Issuing Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release (a) any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Parent as a result of a transaction not restricted hereunder and (b) WTW Bermuda Holdings Ltd., the direct parent company of the Company (the “parent”), from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement, so long as (i) Willis Towers Watson UK Holdings Limited (the “new parent”) shall be designated as an additional Guarantor under and in accordance with the terms of the Guaranty Agreement, (ii) the parent shall distribute to the new parent of all of its equity interests in the Company, (iii) following such distribution, the parent shall have no material assets and (iv) no Event of Default shall exists or would result from such proposed transactions. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.11.

9.12 Survival. All provisions of this Article IX shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations hereunder.

120

a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (y) result from a claim brought by the Company or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Company or such other Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (z) result from a dispute solely amongst the Indemnitees (other than claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity as Administrative Agent or as an Arranger) not arising out of any act or omission of the Parent, the Borrowers, or any Subsidiary; provided further that this Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Parent and the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), L/C Administrator, any Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such L/C Administrator, Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such L/C Administrator, Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such L/C Administrator, Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender in connection with such capacity. To the extent any Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender is entitled to indemnification under this Section solely in its capacity and role as Issuing Lender or as the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, only the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be required to indemnify such Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, in accordance with this Section 10.04(c) (determined as of the time that the applicable payment is sought based on each Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment at such time). The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(e).

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, neither the Parent, any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, L/C Administrator, any Lender nor any Issuing Lender shall assert, and each of them hereby waives, any claim against any Person party to this Agreement or against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

121

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 Business Days after demand therefor.

(f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and any Issuing Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the any Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and each L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

10.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (x) neither any Borrower nor the Parent may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender; provided that a merger or consolidation that complies with Section 7.04 shall not be construed as an assignment or transfer for purposes of this clause (x) and (y) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (e) of this Section, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (g) of this Section or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of subsection (h) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsections (e) and (f) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

122

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it, or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the Company will be deemed to have consented to such assignment if its response is not received by the Administrative Agent within five days of its receipt of notice of such assignment) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

123

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment under the Facility to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

(C) the consent of the Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment under the Facility that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in (i) Swing Line Loans and/or (ii) exposure under one or more Letters of Credit, as applicable (whether or not then outstanding).

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. Following receipt by it of an Assignment and Assumption, the Administrative Agent shall promptly, and in any event within 10 days of receipt, deliver to the Company a fully executed copy of such Assignment and Assumption.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Parent, the Company or any of the Parent’s or Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, (C) at any time there are Several Letters of Credit, to a Non-SLC Bank (unless such Non-SLC Bank shall have in effect a Limited Fronting Lender Agreement with a Revolving Credit Lender which is not a Non-SLC Bank) or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), (C) or (D) to a natural person.

(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or sub-participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, L/C Administrator, each Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line

124

Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(vii) Several Letters of Credit. At any time there are any Several Letters of Credit outstanding, concurrently with the effectiveness of such assignment the Several Letters of Credit then outstanding shall be amended (with the consent of the beneficiary thereof) to (i) remove the assigning Lender’s liability thereunder, if any, as L/C Issuer and (ii) include the assignee Lender as an L/C Issuer thereunder with respect to its Commitment Percentage.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, each Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Revolving Credit Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Limitations on Rights of Eligible Assignees. If (i) a Lender assigns or transfers or participates or sub-participates any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or changes its applicable Lending Office and (ii) as a result of circumstances existing at the date of the assignment, transfer, participation, sub-participation or change, a Borrower or a Guarantor would be obliged to make a payment to the relevant assignee, transferee, participant, sub-participant or Lender acting through its new Lending Office pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.04, then the relevant assignee, transferee, participant, sub-participant or Lender acting through its new Lending Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Sections as a result of those circumstances to the same extent as the assignor, transferor, participant, sub-participant or Lender acting through its previous Lending Office would have been if the assignment, transfer, participation, sub-participation or change had not occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, this subsection (c) shall not (except to the extent of any subsequent assignment, transfer, participation, sub-participation or change in applicable Lending Office) limit each Borrower’s obligations to make payments pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04 in respect of Taxes or a Tax Deduction arising as a result of a Change in Law after the date of the relevant assignment, transfer or change in applicable Lending Office.

125

(d) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of the offices of the Administrative Agent outside of the United Kingdom a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts and stated interest of the Loans and L/C Obligations (specifying Unreimbursed Amounts), L/C Borrowings and other amounts due under Section 2.03 owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Parent, each Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Parent, the Company and any Lender (but only, in the case of a Lender, at the relevant office of the Administrative Agent and with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Commitments, Loans, L/C Obligations and other Obligations), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Parent, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, or the Parent, any Borrower or any of the Parent’s or any Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or a Person that the Administrative Agent has identified in a notice to the Lenders as a Defaulting Lender) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Parent, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain outside of the United Kingdom a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s 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 Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, L/C Obligations 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, L/C Obligation or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury regulations. The entries in each 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, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

126

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification, consent or waiver in respect of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, consent, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of each Lender or the consent of each Lender affected thereby that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (c) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section (and subject always to the limitations set out in subsection (c) of this section). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.

(f) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 3.01(e) and, if applicable, Section 3.01(i) as though it were a Lender.

(g) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Revolving Credit Note(s), if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) Special Purpose Funding Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Company (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof or, if it fails to do so, to make such payment to the Administrative Agent as is required under Section 2.12(c). Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 3.01 and Section 3.04), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or

127

similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee in the amount of $3,500 (which processing fee may be waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(i) Resignation as Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time any Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitments (and all Committed Loans outstanding thereunder) pursuant to subsection (b) above, such Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Company, resign as the Swing Line Lender or as Issuing Lender. In the event of any such resignation as the Swing Line Lender or as Issuing Lender, the Company shall be entitled to appoint from among the Revolving Credit Lenders a successor Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender; provided that (a) no failure by the Company to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the Swing Line Lender or such Issuing Lender and (b) no Lender shall become the Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender without such Lender’s consent thereto. If any Issuing Lender resigns as an Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If the Swing Line Lender resigns as the Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to the Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as the Swing Line Lender (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c)). Upon the appointment of a successor Swing Line Lender and/or Issuing Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender and/or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, (b) the retiring Swing Line Lender and/or Issuing Lender shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and (c) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue Letters of Credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession and issued by the retiring Issuing Lender or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each Issuing Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory or tax authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.17 or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Parent or its Subsidiaries or the Facility, (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Facility or (iii) any credit insurance provider, (h) with the consent of the Company or the Parent or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or the Parent.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary relating to the Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of information received from the Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Parent, the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Company or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Company or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Company or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or such L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

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

10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts

130

hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

10.13 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender declines to become an Extending Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any circumstance exists under the penultimate of Section 10.01 that gives the Company the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(a) the Company shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b);

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees

131

and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(d) the Company or such Eligible Assignee shall have received all consents required in accordance with Section 10.06; provided that such consents will not be required in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender declining to become an Extending Lender pursuant to Section 2.17;

(e) if applicable, the replacement Eligible Assignee or Eligible Assignees shall consent to such amendment or waiver, and such amendment or waiver shall, after giving effect to such consent(s), be consummated; and

(f) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, (i) no Revolving Credit Lender that acts as an Issuing Lender may be replaced hereunder at any time it has any Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements satisfactory to such Lender (including the furnishing of a back-up standby letter of credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer, reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender or the depositing of Cash Collateral into a cash collateral account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender) have been made with respect to such outstanding Letter of Credit and (ii) the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 9.06.

Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 10.13.

10.14 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.

(d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

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

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each of the Company and the Parent acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Parent, the Company and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each of the Company and the Parent has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each of the Company and the Parent is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Agents and the Lenders is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Company, the Parent or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) none of the Agents nor the Lenders has any obligation to the Company, the Parent or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Agents and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company, the Parent and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Agents nor the Lenders has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Company, the Parent or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, each of the Company and the Parent hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against each Agent and each Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

10.19 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any L/C Issuer hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer from the Borrowers in the Agreement Currency, each Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer in such currency, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to the relevant Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law).
