ARTICLE II

THE CREDITS

SECTION 2.01 Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender with a Revolving Commitment agrees, severally and not jointly, at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date until the earlier of the Business Day prior to the Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, to make revolving loans (x) to the U.S. Borrowers, jointly and severally, or to the Parent Borrower, in any Approved Currency (each, a U.S. Revolving Loan), (y) to the Swiss Borrower, in euros or GBP (each, a Swiss Revolving Loan), and (z) to the U.K. Borrower, in euros or GBP (each, a U.K. Revolving Loan and, collectively with the Swiss Revolving Loans and the U.S. Revolving Loans, each a Revolving Loan), in an aggregate principal amount that does not result in:

(i) such Lenders Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lenders Revolving Commitment less such Lenders ratable portion of Availability Reserves;

(ii) the Total Adjusted Revolving Exposure exceeding the Total Adjusted Borrowing Base (subject to the Administrative Agents authority in its sole discretion to make Overadvances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.01(e)); or

(iii) the Total Revolving Exposure exceeding the lesser of (I) the Total Borrowing Base (subject to the Administrative Agents authority in its sole discretion to make Overadvances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.01(e)), and (II) the Total Revolving Commitment less Availability Reserves.

(b) [intentionally omitted.]

(c) Within the limits set forth above and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to establish Availability Reserves against the Commitments, and/or Availability Reserves and other Reserves against the Borrowing Base, in each case in such amounts, and with respect to such matters, as the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion shall deem necessary, including, without limitation (but without duplication), (i) sums that the respective Borrowers or Borrowing Base Guarantors are or will be required to pay (such as taxes (including payroll and sales taxes), assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) and have not yet paid, (ii) amounts owing by the respective Borrowers or Borrowing Base Guarantors or, without duplication, their respective Subsidiaries to any Person in respect of any Lien of the type described in the definition of First Priority on any of the Collateral, which Lien, in the Permitted Discretion of the Administrative Agent, is reasonably likely to rank senior in priority to or pari passu with one or more of the Liens granted in the Security Documents in and to such item of the Collateral, (iii) an Unpaid Supplier Reserve and a Reserve against prior claims of Logan, in each case, against Eligible Inventory included in the Borrowing Base, (iv) an Inventory Reserve, in each case, against Eligible Inventory included in the Borrowing Base, (v) Rent Reserves and Reserves for Priority Payables, (vi) a Bank Product Reserve, and (vii) a Dilution Reserve; provided, however, that (y) the amount of any Reserve established by the Administrative Agent shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for the Reserve, and (z) Reserves shall not duplicate eligibility criteria contained in the definitions of Eligible Accounts or Eligible Inventory or reserves or criteria deducted in computing the cost of Eligible Inventory or the Net Recovery Cost Percentage of Eligible Inventory. The Administrative Agent shall provide the Administrative Borrower with at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice of any such establishment. Upon delivery of written notice to Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be available to discuss the proposed Reserve, and the applicable Borrower or Borrowing Base Guarantor may take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such Reserve no longer exists, in a manner and to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion. In no event shall such notice and opportunity limit the right of the Administrative Agent to establish such Reserve, unless the Administrative Agent shall have determined in its Permitted Discretion that the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for such new Reserve no longer exists or has otherwise been adequately addressed.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall not, without the prior consent of the Required Lenders, make (and shall use its reasonable best efforts to prohibit the Issuing Banks and Swingline Lenders, as applicable, from making) any Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans, or provide any Letters of Credit, to the Borrowers on behalf of Lenders intentionally and with actual knowledge that such Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans, or Letters of Credit would either (i) cause the Total Revolving Exposure to exceed the lesser of (a) the Total Borrowing Base, and (b) the Total Revolving Commitment less Availability Reserves, (ii) cause the Total Adjusted Revolving Exposure to exceed the Total Adjusted Borrowing Base, or (iii) be made when one or more of the other conditions precedent to the making of Loans hereunder cannot

be satisfied, except that Administrative Agent may make (or cause to be made) such additional Revolving Loans (including U.S. Swingline Loans) or European Swingline Loans or provide such additional Letters of Credit on behalf of Lenders (each an Overadvance and collectively, the Overadvances), intentionally and with actual knowledge that such Loans or Letters of Credit will be made without the satisfaction of the foregoing conditions precedent, if the Administrative Agent deems it necessary or advisable in its discretion to do so; provided, that: (A) the total principal amount outstanding at any time of Overadvances to the Borrowers which Administrative Agent may make or provide (or cause to be made or provided) after obtaining such actual knowledge that the conditions precedent have not been satisfied, shall not (I) exceed the amount equal to 5% of the Total Borrowing Base, or, when aggregated with all Credit Protective Advances then outstanding, 7.5% of the Total Borrowing Base, and (II) shall not, without the consent of all Lenders, cause the Total Revolving Exposure to exceed the Total Revolving Commitment of all of the Lenders less Availability Reserves, or such Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of the Total Revolving Exposure to exceed such Lenders Revolving Commitment less such Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of Availability Reserves, (B) without the consent of all Lenders, (I) no Overadvance shall be outstanding for more than sixty (60) days and (II) after all Overadvances have been repaid, Administrative Agent shall not make any additional Overadvance unless sixty (60) days or more have elapsed since the last date on which any Overadvance was outstanding and (C) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds on demand from the applicable Borrower or Borrowers together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent at the interest rate otherwise applicable to Loans of such Class and Type (including interest at the Default Rate, if applicable). Each Lender of the applicable Class shall be obligated to pay Administrative Agent the amount of its Pro Rata Percentage of any such Overadvance, provided, that such Administrative Agent is acting in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.01(e). Overadvances shall constitute Revolving Loans (or European Swingline Loans), shall be payable on demand and shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral entitled to all the benefits of the Loan Documents. Any funding of an Overadvance or sufferance of an Overadvance shall not constitute a waiver by any Agent or any Lender of the Event of Default caused thereby. In no event shall any Borrower be deemed a beneficiary of this Section 2.01(e) nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.

(f) The Administrative Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, at any time that any conditions in Section 4.02 are not satisfied, to make Base Rate Loans (Protective Advances) (i) if the Administrative Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect Collateral, or to enhance the collectibility or repayment of Obligations (Credit Protective Advances), provided, that the total principal amount outstanding at any time of Credit Protective Advances shall not exceed the amount equal to 5% of the Total Borrowing Base, or, when aggregated with all Overadvances then outstanding, 7.5% of the Total Borrowing Base, or (ii) to pay any other amounts chargeable to the Loan Parties under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses; provided further, that the total principal amount outstanding at any time of Protective Advances shall not, without the consent of all Lenders, cause the Total Revolving Exposure to exceed the Total Revolving Commitment of all of the Lenders less Availability Reserves, or such Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of the Total Revolving Exposure to exceed such Lenders Revolving Commitment less such Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of Availability Reserves. Each Lender shall

participate in each Protective Advance in accordance with its Pro Rata Percentage. Required Lenders may at any time revoke Administrative Agents authority to make further Protective Advances by written notice to the Administrative Agent. Absent such revocation, the Administrative Agents determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive.

SECTION 2.02 Loans.

(a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Commitments; provided, that the failure of any Lender to make its Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Swingline Loans, Protective Advances and Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.18, each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than (and in integral amounts consistent with) the Minimum Currency Threshold or, if less, equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

(b) Subject to Section 2.11 and Section 2.12, (i) each Borrowing of Dollar Denominated Loans shall be comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as Administrative Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03 (provided that Base Rate Loans shall be available only with respect to Dollar Denominated Loans borrowed by U.S. Borrowers or Parent Borrower), (ii) each Borrowing of GBP Denominated Loans or Swiss Franc Denominated Loans shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans, and (iii) each Borrowing of Euro Denominated Loans shall be comprised entirely of EURIBOR Loans; provided that all Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all times be of the same Type. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and provided, further, that with respect to any Loan (and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing), if such Lender is a Swiss Qualifying Bank, such branch or Affiliate must also qualify as a Swiss Qualifying Bank. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than eight Eurocurrency Borrowings in Dollars, five Eurocurrency Borrowings in GBP, or eight EURIBOR Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any one time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

(c) Except with respect to Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.18(b) and Swingline Loans, each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in Chicago, or to such account in a European jurisdiction, as the Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 12:00 noon, New York time (11:00 a.m., London time in the case of Revolving Loans made in GBP or Euros), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to an account of the applicable Borrower as directed by the

Administrative Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request maintained with the Administrative Agent or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lenders portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and such Borrower severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Interbank Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lenders Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and the applicable Borrowers obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) shall cease.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Borrower shall be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

SECTION 2.03 Borrowing Procedure.

(a) To request a Borrowing (subject to Section 2.17(e) with respect to European Swingline Loans), the Administrative Borrower, on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall deliver, by hand delivery, telecopier or, to the extent separately agreed by the Administrative Agent, by an electronic communication in accordance with the second sentence of Section 11.01(b) and the second paragraph of Section 11.01(d), a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing (other than a Eurocurrency Borrowing made in GBP), not later than 12:00 noon, New York time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (ii) in the case of a EURIBOR Borrowing, or a Eurocurrency Borrowing made in GBP, not later than 11:00 a.m., London time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, or (iii) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 a.m., New York time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing;

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether such Borrowing shall constitute a Borrowing of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.K. Revolving Loans or Swiss Revolving Loans;

(iv) in the case of Dollar Denominated Loans made to U.S. Borrowers or to Parent Borrower, whether such Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;

(v) in the case of U.S. Revolving Loans, whether such Borrowing is to be made to the U.S. Borrowers or the Parent Borrower;

(vi) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing or EURIBOR Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated, as applicable, by the definition of the term Eurocurrency Interest Period or EURIBOR Interest Period;

(vii) the location and number of the applicable Borrowers account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.02(c);

(viii) that the conditions set forth in Section 4.02(b) (d) have been satisfied as of the date of the notice; and

(ix) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing in an Alternate Currency, the Approved Currency for such Borrowing.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified with respect to a Borrowing of Dollar Denominated Loans made to U.S. Borrowers or to Parent Borrower, then the requested Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested EURIBOR Borrowing or Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the Administrative Borrower on behalf of the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one months duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lenders Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

(b) Appointment of Administrative Borrower. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Administrative Borrower as its agent to request Loans and Letters of Credit pursuant to this Agreement in the name or on behalf of such Borrower. The Administrative Agent and Lenders may disburse the Loans to such bank account of Administrative Borrower or a Borrower or otherwise make such Loans to a Borrower and provide such Letters of Credit to a Borrower as Administrative Borrower may designate or direct, without notice to any other Borrower or Guarantor. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Administrative Borrower as its agent to receive statements of account and all other notices from the Agents and Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the Intercreditor Agreement. Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking by or on behalf of any other Loan Party by Administrative Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Loan

Party, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Loan Party to the same extent as if made directly by such Loan Party. Administrative Borrower hereby accepts the appointment by Borrowers and the other Loan Parties to act as the agent of Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and agrees to ensure that the disbursement of any Loans to a Borrower requested by or paid to or for the account of such Borrower, or the issuance of any Letter of Credit for a Borrower hereunder, shall be paid to or for the account of such Borrower. No purported termination of the appointment of Administrative Borrower as agent as aforesaid shall be effective, except after ten (10) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent and appointment by the Borrowers of a replacement Administrative Borrower.

(c) Appointment of European Administrative Borrower. Each U.K. Borrower and Swiss Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes European Administrative Borrower as its agent to request Loans and Letters of Credit pursuant to this Agreement in the name or on behalf of such Borrower. The Administrative Agent and Lenders may disburse the Loans to such bank account of European Administrative Borrower or a U.K. Borrower or Swiss Borrower or otherwise make such Loans to a U.K. Borrower or Swiss Borrower and provide such Letters of Credit to a U.K. Borrower or Swiss Borrower as European Administrative Borrower may designate or direct, without notice to any other Borrower or Guarantor. Each U.K. Borrower and Swiss Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes European Administrative Borrower as its agent to receive statements of account and all other notices from the Agents and Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking by or on behalf of any other Borrower by European Administrative Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if made directly by such Borrower. European Administrative Borrower hereby accepts the appointment by the U.K. Borrowers and Swiss Borrowers to act as the agent of such Borrowers and agrees to ensure that the disbursement of any Loans to a U.K. Borrower or Swiss Borrower requested by or paid to or for the account of such Borrower, or the issuance of any Letter of Credit for a U.K. Borrower or Swiss Borrower hereunder, shall be paid to or for the account of such Borrower. No purported termination of the appointment of European Administrative Borrower as agent as aforesaid shall be effective, except after ten (10) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent and appointment by the U.K. Borrowers and Swiss Borrowers of a replacement European Administrative Borrower.

(d) Unless payment is otherwise timely made by Borrowers within three (3) Business Days of the due date (after the lapse of any applicable grace periods) of any Secured Obligations (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges, including Extraordinary Expenses, LC Obligations, cash collateral and Secured Bank Product Obligations), Borrower shall be deemed to have requested Base Rate Revolving Loans on such third Business Day in the amount of such Secured Obligations. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be disbursed as direct payment of the relevant Secured Obligation.

SECTION 2.04 Evidence of Debt.

(a) Promise to Repay. Each U.S. Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally promises to pay on the Maturity Date to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each applicable Revolving Lender (or, in the case of U.S. Swingline Loans, the U.S. Swingline Lender in accordance with Section 2.17(a)), the then unpaid principal amount of each U.S. Revolving Loan of such Revolving Lender made to any U.S. Borrower. The Parent Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay on the Maturity Date to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each applicable Revolving Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each U.S. Revolving Loan of such Revolving Lender made to the Parent Borrower. The Swiss Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) on the Maturity Date to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each applicable Revolving Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Swiss Revolving Loan of such Revolving Lender and (ii) on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan, to the European Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each European Swingline Loan. The U.K. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay on the Maturity Date to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each applicable Revolving Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each U.K. Revolving Loan of such Revolving Lender. All payments or repayments of Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) shall be made in the Approved Currency in which such Loan is denominated.

(b) Lender and Administrative Agent Records. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount and Approved Currency of each Loan made hereunder, the Borrower or Borrowers to which such Loan is made, the Type, Class and Sub-Class thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto; (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder; and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lenders share thereof. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to this paragraph shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded as well as the Borrower or Borrowers which received such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.

(c) Promissory Notes. Any Lender by written notice to the Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) may request that Loans of any Class and Sub-Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender one or more promissory notes payable to such Lender or its registered assigns in the form of Exhibit K-1 or K-2, as the case may be. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 11.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to such payee or its registered assigns. If, because of fluctuations in exchange rates after the date of issuance thereof, any such Note would not be at least as great as the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans made by such Lender evidenced thereby at any

100

time outstanding, such Lender may request (and in such case the applicable Borrowers shall promptly execute and deliver) a new Note in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of such Loans of such Lender outstanding on the date of the issuance of such new Note.

SECTION 2.05 Fees.

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender having a Revolving Commitment a commitment fee (a Commitment Fee) denominated in Dollars on the actual daily amount by which the Total Revolving Commitment exceeds the Total Revolving Exposure, from and including the date hereof to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Fee. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each month, commencing January 1, 2011, and (B) on the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates. Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing Commitment Fees with respect to Revolving Commitments, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans, Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Lender.

(b) Fee Letter. Parent Borrower agrees to pay or to cause the applicable Borrower to pay all Fees payable pursuant to the Fee Letter, in the amounts and on the dates set forth therein.

(c) LC and Fronting Fees. The applicable Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender having a Revolving Commitment a participation fee (LC Participation Fee) with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate equal to the Applicable Margin from time to time used to determine the interest rate on (A) with regard to Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, Canadian Dollars or GBP, Eurocurrency Loans, and (B) with regard to Letters of Credit denominated in euros, EURIBOR Loans, in each case pursuant to Section 2.06 on the average daily amount of such Lenders LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to Reimbursement Obligations) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lenders Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the applicable Issuing Bank a fronting fee (Fronting Fee), which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure of such Issuing Bank (excluding any portion thereof attributable to Reimbursement Obligations) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which such Issuing Bank ceases to have any LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Banks customary fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Accrued LC Participation Fees and Fronting Fees shall be payable in arrears (i) on the first Business Day of each month, commencing on January 1, 2011, and (ii) on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate. Any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees

101

payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand therefor. All LC Participation Fees and Fronting Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). If at any time any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Loan Parties hereunder has not been paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, the LC Participation Fee shall be increased to a per annum rate equal to 2% plus the otherwise applicable rate with respect thereto for so long as such overdue amounts have not been paid.

(d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that Borrowers shall pay the Fronting Fees directly to the applicable Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.06 Interest on Loans.

(a) Base Rate Loans. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(f), the Loans comprising each Base Rate Borrowing, including each U.S. Swingline Loan, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time.

(b) Eurocurrency Loans. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(f), the Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing, including each European Swingline Loan, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time.

(d) [intentionally omitted].

(e) EURIBOR Loans. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(f), the Loans comprising each EURIBOR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time.

(f) Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during an Event of Default of the type specified in Sections 8.01(a), (b), (g) or (h), or during any other Event of Default if the Required Lenders in their discretion so elect by notice to the Administrative Agent, all Obligations shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a per annum rate equal to (i) in the case of principal of or interest on any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.06 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans as provided in Section 2.06(a) (in either case, the Default Rate).

(g) Interest Payment Dates. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.06(f) shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or

102

prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of a Base Rate Revolving Loan or a U.S. Swingline Loan without a permanent reduction in Revolving Commitments), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any EURIBOR Loan or Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(h) Interest Calculation. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest computed by reference to the Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and (ii) interest computed with regard to Eurocurrency Loans by way of GBP shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Base Rate, Adjusted EURIBOR Rate or Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(i) Currency for Payment of Interest. All interest paid or payable pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be paid in the Approved Currency in which the Loan giving rise to such interest is denominated.

(j) Swiss Minimum Interests Rates and Payments. The various rates of interests provided for in this Agreement (including, without limitation, under this Section 2.06) are minimum interest rates.

(i) When entering into this Agreement, each party hereto has assumed that the payments required under this Agreement are not and will not become subject to Swiss Withholding Tax. Notwithstanding that the parties hereto do not anticipate that any payment will be subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, they agree that, if (A) Swiss Withholding Tax should be imposed on interest or other payments (the Relevant Amount) by a Swiss Loan Party and (B) Section 2.15 should be held unenforceable, then the applicable interest rate in relation to that interest payment shall be: (x) the interest rate which would have been applied to that interest payment (as provided for in the absence of this Section 2.06(j); divided by (y) 1 minus the minimal permissible rate at which the relevant Tax Deduction is required to be made in view of domestic tax law and/or applicable treaties (where the rate at which the relevant Tax Deduction is required to be made is, for this purpose, expressed as a fraction of one (1)) and all references to a rate of interest under such Loan shall be construed accordingly. For this purpose, the Swiss Withholding Tax shall be calculated on the amount so recalculated.

(ii) The Swiss Borrower shall not be required to make an increased payment to any specific Lender (but without prejudice to the rights of all other Lenders hereunder) under paragraph (i) above or under Section 2.15 in connection with a Swiss Withholding Tax if the Swiss Borrower has breached the Ten Non-Bank Regulations and/or Twenty Non-Bank Regulations as a direct result of (A) the incorrectness of the representation made by such Lender pursuant to Section 2.21 if such Lender specified that it was a Swiss Qualifying Bank or (B) such Lender, as assignee or participant, breaching the requirements and limitations for transfers,

103

assignments or participations pursuant to Section 11.04 or (C) if Section 2.15 does not provide for an obligation to make increased payments.

(iii) For the avoidance of doubt, the Swiss Borrower shall be required to make an increased payment to a specific Lender under paragraph (i) above in connection with the imposition of a Swiss Withholding Tax (A) if the Swiss Borrower has breached the Ten Non-Bank Regulations and/or the Twenty Non-Bank Regulations as a result of its failure to comply with the provisions of Section 5.15 or, (B) if after an Event of Default, lack of compliance with the Ten Non-Bank Regulations and/or the Twenty Non-Bank Regulations as a result of assignments or participation effected in accordance herewith, or (C) following a change of law or practice in relation with the Ten Non-Bank Regulations and/or the Twenty Non-Bank Regulations Swiss Withholding Tax becomes due on interest payments made by Swiss Borrower and Section 2.15 is not enforceable.

(iv) If requested by the Administrative Agent, a Swiss Loan Party shall provide to the Administrative Agent those documents which are required by law and applicable double taxation treaties to be provided by the payer of such tax for each relevant Lender to prepare a claim for refund of Swiss Withholding Tax. In the event Swiss Withholding Tax is refunded to the Lender by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration, the relevant Lender shall forward, after deduction of costs, such amount to the Swiss Loan Party; provided, however, that (i) the relevant Swiss Loan Party has fully complied with its obligations under this Section 2.06(j); (ii) the relevant Lender may determine, in its sole discretion, consistent with the policies of such Lender, the amount of the refund attributable to Swiss Withholding Tax paid by the relevant Swiss Loan Party; (iii) nothing in this Agreement shall require the Lender to disclose any confidential information to the Swiss Loan Party (including, without limitation, its tax returns); and (iv) no Lender shall be required to pay any amounts pursuant to this Section 2.06(j)(iv) at any time during which a Default or Event of Default exists.

SECTION 2.07 Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Termination of Commitments. The Revolving Commitments, the European Swingline Commitment and the LC Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date.

(b) Optional Terminations and Reductions. At its option, Administrative Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall not be terminated or reduced if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the aggregate amount of Revolving Exposure would exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments, or the Total Revolving Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment.

(c) Borrower Notice. Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under Section 2.07(b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or

104

reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by Administrative Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by Administrative Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be (subject to payment of any amount pursuant to Section 2.13) revoked by Administrative Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

SECTION 2.08 Interest Elections.

(a) Generally. Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a EURIBOR Borrowing or Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, Administrative Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type (in the case of Dollar Denominated Loans made to U.S. Borrowers or to Parent Borrower, to a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing) or to rollover or continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a EURIBOR Borrowing or Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. Borrowings consisting of Alternate Currency Revolving Loans may not be converted to a different Type. Administrative Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions (not less than the Minimum Currency Threshold) of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Borrowers shall not be entitled to request any conversion, rollover or continuation that, if made, would result in more than eight Eurocurrency Borrowings in Dollars, five Eurocurrency Borrowings in GBP, or eight EURIBOR Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any one time. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued.

(b) Interest Election Notice. To make an election pursuant to this Section, Administrative Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or telecopier, a duly completed and executed Interest Election Request to the Administrative Agent not later than the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if Administrative Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable. Each Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

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

105

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) in the case of Dollar Denominated Loans made to U.S. Borrowers or to Parent Borrower, whether such Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;

(iv) [intentionally omitted];

(v) if the resulting Borrowing is a EURIBOR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated, as applicable, by the definition of the term EURIBOR Interest Period or Eurocurrency Interest Period; and

(vi) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Alternate Currency Revolving Loans, the Alternate Currency of such Borrowing.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a EURIBOR Borrowing or Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one months duration.

Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lenders portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(c) Automatic Conversion to Base Rate Borrowing. If an Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing made to U.S. Borrowers or to Parent Borrower in Dollars is not timely delivered prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing. EURIBOR Borrowings and Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in an Alternate Currency, and Eurocurrency Borrowings made to Swiss Borrower or U.K. Borrower and denominated in Dollars, shall not be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing, but shall be continued as Loans of the same Type with a one month Interest Period. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may require, by notice to Administrative Borrower, that (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a EURIBOR Borrowing or Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing (other than a Borrowing of Alternate Currency Loans or a Eurocurrency Borrowing made to Swiss Borrower or U.K. Borrower and denominated in Dollars) shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.09 [intentionally omitted].

SECTION 2.10 Optional and Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.

(a) Optional Prepayments. Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this

106

Section 2.10 and subject to the provisions of Section 9.01(e); provided that each partial prepayment shall be in a principal amount that is not less than (and in integral amounts consistent with) the Minimum Currency Threshold or, if less, the outstanding principal amount of such Borrowing.

(b) Certain Revolving Loan Prepayments.

(i) In the event of the termination of all the Revolving Commitments, each Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all its outstanding Borrowings and all its outstanding Swingline Loans and replace all outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize all its outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18.

(ii) [intentionally omitted].

(iii) [intentionally omitted].

(iv) In the event of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments, then (x) at or prior to the effective date of such reduction, the Administrative Agent shall notify Administrative Borrower and the applicable Revolving Lenders of the Total Revolving Exposure after giving effect thereto and (y) if the Total Revolving Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment less Availability Reserves after giving effect to such reduction, each applicable Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, act in accordance with Section 2.10(b)(vi) below.

(v) [intentionally omitted].

(vi) In the event that the Total Revolving Exposure at any time exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment less Availability Reserves then in effect (including on any date on which Dollar Equivalents are determined pursuant to the definition thereof), each applicable Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately first, repay or prepay its Borrowings and second, replace its outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize its outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18, in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(vii) [intentionally omitted].

(viii) In the event that the aggregate LC Exposure exceeds the LC Commitment then in effect (including on any date on which Dollar Equivalents are determined pursuant to the definition thereof), each applicable Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately replace its outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize its outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18, in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(ix) In the event that (A) the Total Revolving Exposure exceeds the Total Borrowing Base then in effect, or (B) the Total Adjusted Revolving Exposure exceeds the Total Adjusted Borrowing Base then in effect, each applicable Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately first, repay or prepay its Borrowings, and second, replace its outstanding

107

Letters of Credit or cash collateralize its outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18, in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess; provided that to the extent such excess results solely by reason of a change in exchange rates, unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Borrower shall be required to make such repayment, replacement or cash collateralization unless the amount of such excess is greater than 5% of the Total Borrowing Base or Total Adjusted Borrowing Base, as the case may be (in which event the applicable Borrowers shall make such replacements or cash collateralization so as to eliminate such excess in its entirety).

(x) [intentionally omitted].

(xi) In the event an Activation Notice has been given (as contemplated by Section 9.01), Borrowers shall pay all proceeds of Collateral (other than proceeds of Pari Passu Priority Collateral) into the Collection Account, for application in accordance with Section 9.01(e).

(c) Asset Sales. Not later than three (3) Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale of Revolving Credit Priority Collateral by any Loan Party (i) outside of the ordinary course of business, (ii) occurring during the existence of any Event of Default or (iii) at any time after the occurrence of a Cash Dominion Trigger Event and prior to the subsequent occurrence of a Cash Dominion Recovery Event, Borrowers shall make (in addition to any prepayments required by Section 2.10(b) (which shall be made regardless of whether any prepayment is required under this paragraph (c)), prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(h) and (i) in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that no such prepayment shall be required under this Section 2.10(c) with respect to (A) the disposition of property which constitutes a Casualty Event (in which event Section 2.10(f) shall apply), or (B) Asset Sales for fair market value resulting in less than $5,000,000 in Net Cash Proceeds in any fiscal year.

(d) [intentionally omitted]

(e) [intentionally omitted]

(f) Casualty Events. Not later than three (3) Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from a Casualty Event in respect of Revolving Credit Priority Collateral by any Loan Party during the occurrence of an Event of Default or at any time after the occurrence of a Cash Dominion Trigger Event and prior to the subsequent occurrence of a Cash Dominion Recovery Event, Borrowers shall make (in addition to any prepayments required by Section 2.10(b) (which shall be made regardless of whether any prepayment is required under this paragraph (c)), prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(h) and (i) in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that no such prepayment shall be required under this Section 2.10(f) with respect to Casualty Events resulting in less than $5,000,000 in Net Cash Proceeds in any fiscal year.

(g) [intentionally omitted]

(h) Application of Prepayments. (i) Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment hereunder, Administrative Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to

108

be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(i), subject to the provisions of this Section 2.10(h), provided that after an Activation Notice has been delivered, Section 9.01(e) shall apply, provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or after the acceleration of the Obligations, Section 8.03 shall apply. Any mandatory prepayment shall be made without reduction to the Revolving Commitments.

(ii) Amounts to be applied pursuant to this Section 2.10 to the prepayment of Revolving Loans by a Borrower shall be applied, as applicable, first to reduce outstanding U.S. Swingline Loans, and then to reduce other outstanding Base Rate Loans of that Borrower. Any amounts remaining after each such application shall be applied to prepay EURIBOR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, as applicable, of that Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the amount of any prepayment of Loans required under this Section 2.10 shall be in excess of the amount of the Base Rate Loans (including U.S. Swingline Loans) at the time outstanding (an Excess Amount), only the portion of the amount of such prepayment as is equal to the amount of such outstanding Base Rate Loans (including U.S. Swingline Loans) shall be immediately prepaid and, at the election of Administrative Borrower, the Excess Amount shall be either (A) deposited in an escrow account on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and applied to the prepayment of EURIBOR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans on the last day of the then next-expiring Interest Period for EURIBOR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans; provided that (i) interest in respect of such Excess Amount shall continue to accrue thereon at the rate provided hereunder for the Loans which such Excess Amount is intended to repay until such Excess Amount shall have been used in full to repay such Loans and (ii) at any time while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may, and upon written direction from the Required Lenders shall, apply any or all proceeds then on deposit to the payment of such Loans in an amount equal to such Excess Amount or (B) prepaid immediately, together with any amounts owing to the Lenders under Section 2.13.

(i) Notice of Prepayment. Administrative Borrower or European Administrative Borrower, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by written notice of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing (other than a Eurocurrency Borrowing made in GBP), not later than 12:00 noon, New York time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (i) in the case of prepayment of a EURIBOR Borrowing, or a Eurocurrency Borrowing made in GBP (in each case other than a European Swingline Loan), not later than 11:00 a.m., London time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment, (iv) in the case of prepayment of a U.S. Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York time, on the date of prepayment, and (v) in the case of prepayment of a European Swingline Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., Zurich time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.07. Each such notice shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. Promptly following receipt of any

109

such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Credit Extension of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing and otherwise in accordance with this Section 2.10. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.06.

SECTION 2.11 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a EURIBOR Borrowing or Eurocurrency Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate or Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period or that any Alternate Currency is not available to the Lenders in sufficient amounts to fund any Borrowing consisting of Alternate Currency Revolving Loans; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate or Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to Administrative Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies Administrative Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a EURIBOR Borrowing or Eurocurrency Borrowing, as applicable, shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing, and Borrowing Requests for any affected Alternate Currency Revolving Loans or European Swingline Loans shall not be effective.

SECTION 2.12 Yield Protection; Change in Law Generally.

(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 reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, as applicable) or any Issuing Bank; or

(ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or EURIBOR Loans or Eurocurrency 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 or maintaining any EURIBOR Loan or any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to

110

make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such Lenders or such Issuing Banks holding company, if any, 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 Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines (in good faith, but in its sole absolute discretion) that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Lenders or such Issuing Banks holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lenders or such Issuing Banks capital or on the capital of such Lenders or such Issuing Banks 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 held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lenders or such Issuing Banks holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lenders or such Issuing Banks policies and the policies of such Lenders or such Issuing Banks holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lenders or such Issuing Banks holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.12 and delivered to Administrative Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lenders or such Issuing Banks right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies Administrative Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lenders or such Issuing Banks 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) Change in Legality Generally. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loan or any EURIBOR Loan, or to give effect to its obligations as

111

contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan or any EURIBOR Loan, then, upon written notice by such Lender to Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent:

(i) the Commitments of such Lender (if any) to fund the affected Type of Loan shall immediately terminate;

(ii) in the case of Dollar Denominated Loans, (x) such Lender may declare that Eurocurrency Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be continued for additional Interest Periods and Base Rate Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurocurrency Loans, whereupon any request to convert a Base Rate Borrowing to a Eurocurrency Borrowing or to continue a Eurocurrency Borrowing for an additional Interest Period shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request to continue a Base Rate Loan as such, or to convert a Eurocurrency Loan into a Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn and (y) all such outstanding Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor or, if earlier, on the date specified by such Lender in such notice (which date shall be no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by Applicable Law); and

(iii) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans that are GBP Denominated Loans or Swiss Franc Denominated Loans, or Dollar Denominated Loans of Swiss Borrower or U.K. Borrower, and in the case of EURIBOR Loans, the applicable Borrower shall repay all such outstanding Eurocurrency Loans or EURIBOR Loans, as the case may be, of such Lender on the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor or, if earlier, on the date specified by such Lender in such notice (which date shall be no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by Applicable Law).

(f) Change in Legality in Relation to Issuing Bank. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Issuing Bank to issue or allow to remain outstanding any Letter of Credit, then, by written notice to Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent:

(i) such Issuing Bank shall no longer be obligated to issue any Letters of Credit; and

(ii) each Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to procure the release of each outstanding Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

(g) Increased Tax Costs. If any Change in Law shall subject any Lender or any Issuing Bank to any (i) Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or such Issuing Bank in respect thereof, or (ii) Tax imposed on it that is specially (but not necessarily exclusively) applicable to lenders such as such Lender as a result of the general extent and/or nature of their activities, assets, liabilities, leverage, other exposures to risk, or other similar factors, including but not limited to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith, the

112

proposed United Kingdom Tax to be known as the bank levy (in respect of which draft legislation was last published on December 9, 2010) in such form as it may be imposed and as amended or reenacted, and similar legislation (except, in each case of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.15 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender; provided, however, for purposes of this Section 2.12(g), a franchise tax in lieu of or in substitute of net income taxes shall be treated as an Excluded Tax only if such franchise tax in lieu of or in substitute of net income taxes is imposed by a state, city or political subdivision of a state, in each case in the United States, for the privilege of being organized or chartered in, or doing business in, such state, city or political subdivision of such state or city in the United States), and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender such Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such Lenders or such Issuing Banks holding company, if any, 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 Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

SECTION 2.13 Breakage Payments. In the event of (a) the payment or prepayment, whether optional or mandatory, of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan earlier than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (whether or not such notice was validly revoked pursuant to Section 2.07(c)) or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by Administrative Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16(c), then, in any such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan) (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits of a comparable currency, amount and period from other banks in the applicable interbank market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be delivered to Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within five (5) days after receipt thereof.

113

SECTION 2.14 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs.

(a) Payments Generally. Each Loan Party shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or Reimbursement Obligations, or of amounts payable under Section 2.12, Section 2.13, Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.22 or Section 11.03, or otherwise) on or before the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to (i) in the case of payments with respect to Revolving Loans made in GBP or Euros, 12:00 noon, London time, (ii) in the case of European Swingline Loans, 11:00 a.m. Zurich time), and (iii) with respect to all other payments, 3:00 p.m., New York time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All payments by any Loan Party shall be made to the Administrative Agent at Agents Account, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or a Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Section 2.12, Section 2.13, Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.22 and Section 11.03 shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, unless specified otherwise, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, except as expressly specified otherwise.

(b) Pro Rata Treatment.

(i) Each payment by Borrowers of interest in respect of the Loans of any Class shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the Lenders having Commitments of such Class.

(ii) Each payment by Borrowers on account of principal of the Borrowings of any Class shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans of such Class then held by the Lenders.

(c) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Reimbursement Obligations, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, toward payment of principal and Reimbursement Obligations then due hereunder, ratably

114

among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Reimbursement Obligations then due to such parties.

(d) Sharing of Set-Off. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if any Lender (and/or any Issuing Bank, which shall be deemed a Lender for purposes of this Section 2.14(d)) shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other Obligations resulting in such Lenders receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other Obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, 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 the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, 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 principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

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

(ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by any Loan Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation. If under applicable Debtor Relief Laws any Secured Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff or counterclaim to which this Section 2.14(d) applies, such Secured Party shall to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights to which the Secured Party is entitled under this Section 2.14(d) to share in the benefits of the recovery of such secured claim.

(e) Borrower Default. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the applicable Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or each Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the

115

date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Interbank Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Administrative Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.14(e) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(f) Lender Default. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder, including pursuant to Section 2.02(c), Section 2.14(d), Section 2.14(e), Section 2.17(c), Section 2.17(g), Section 2.18, Section 10.05, or Section 10.09, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lenders obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to), in its discretion, retain any payments or other funds received by any Agent that are to be provided to a Defaulting Lender hereunder, and may apply such funds to such Lenders defaulted obligations or readvance the funds to Borrowers in accordance with this Agreement. The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan, to make any payment in respect of any LC Obligation or to otherwise perform its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender. Lenders and each Agent agree (which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower) that, solely for purposes of determining a Defaulting Lenders right to vote on matters relating to the Loan Documents (other than those matters that would (i) increase or extend the Commitment of such Lender, (ii) reduce the amount of or extend the time for final payment of principal owing to such Lender, (iii) modify provisions affecting a Defaulting Lenders voting rights or (iv) treat or affect a Defaulting Lender more adversely than the other Lenders) and to share in payments, fees and Collateral proceeds thereunder, a Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to be a Lender until all its defaulted obligations have been cured.

SECTION 2.15 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Loan Party shall be required by Applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the applicable Loan Party shall increase the sum payable as necessary so that after all such required deductions and withholdings (including any such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) each Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the applicable Loan Party shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the applicable Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Taxing Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

The U.K. Borrower is not required to make an increased payment to any Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, under this Section for a deduction on account of an Indemnified Tax imposed by

116

the United Kingdom with respect to a payment of interest on a Loan, if on the date on which the payment falls due:

(i) the payment could have been made to that Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank without deduction if it was a U.K. Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank is not or has ceased to be a U.K. Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date of this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or treaty, or any published practice or concession of any relevant Taxing Authority; or

(ii) the relevant lender is a U.K. Qualifying Lender solely under part (B) of the definition of that term and it has not confirmed in writing to the U.K. Borrower that it falls within that part (this subclause shall not apply where the Lender has not so confirmed and a change after the date of this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law, or any published practice or concession of any relevant Taxing Authority either: (I) renders such confirmation unnecessary in determining whether the U.K. Borrower is required to make a withholding or deduction for, or on account of Tax, or (II) prevents the Lender from giving such confirmation); or

(iii) a payment is due to a Treaty Lender and the U.K. Borrower is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without deduction had the Lender complied with its obligations under Section 2.15(g).

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, each Loan Party shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Taxing Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(c) Indemnification by Borrowers. Each Loan Party shall indemnify each Agent, Lender and Issuing Bank, within ten (10) Business Days after 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) paid by such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Taxing Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Administrative Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by an Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. No Borrower shall be obliged to provide indemnity under this Section where the Indemnified Tax or Other Tax in question is (i) compensated for by an increased payment under Sections 2.15(a) or 2.12(g) or (ii) would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.15(a) but was not so compensated solely because of one of the exclusions in that Section.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Loan Party to a Taxing Authority, the applicable Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Taxing Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return

117

reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders. Except with respect to U.K. withholding taxes, any Lender lending to a non-U.K. Borrower that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the applicable Loan Party is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) if reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent (and from time to time thereafter, as requested by Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent), such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or any subsequent replacement or substitute form that it may lawfully provide as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding; provided, however, that no Lender shall be required to provide any such documentation or form if, in the relevant Lenders reasonable judgment, doing so would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed costs or otherwise be disadvantageous to it in any material respect. In addition, any Lender, if requested by Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver such other documentation reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the applicable Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; provided, however, that no Lender shall be required to provide any such documentation if, in the relevant Lenders reasonable judgment, doing so would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed costs or otherwise be disadvantageous to it in any material respect; and provided, further, that the Administrative Borrower may treat any Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank as an exempt recipient based on the indicators described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.6049-4(c) and if it may be so treated, such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank shall not be required to provide such documentation, except to the extent such documentation is required pursuant to the Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code Section 1441.

Each Lender which so delivers any document requested by Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent in Section 2.15(e) herein further undertakes to deliver to Administrative Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), upon request of Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent, copies of such requested form (or a successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent, in each case, unless an event (including any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required that renders all such forms inapplicable or that would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it. For avoidance of doubt, Borrowers shall not be required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.15 to the extent the obligation to pay such additional amount would not have arisen but for the failure of such Lender or Administrative Agent to comply with this paragraph.

118

Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances that would change any claimed Tax exemption or reduction. Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse (within 10 days after demand therefor) Borrowers and the Administrative Agent for any Taxes, losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by or asserted against a Borrower or Administrative Agent by any Governmental Authority due to such Lenders or Issuing Banks failure to deliver, or inaccuracy or deficiency in, any documentation required to be delivered by it pursuant to this Section. Each Lender and Issuing Bank authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off any amounts due to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower under this Section against any amounts payable to such Lender or Issuing Bank under any Loan Document.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If an Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of, credit against, relief or remission for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Loan Parties or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, Section 2.12(g), or Section 2.06(j), it shall pay to such Loan Party an amount equal to such refund, credit, relief or remission (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or any additional amounts under Section 2.12(g), or Section 2.06(j)), net of all reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Taxing Authority with respect to such refund or any additional amounts under Section 2.12(g), or Section 2.06(j)); provided that each Loan Party, upon the request of such Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Taxing Authority) to such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank in the event such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Taxing Authority. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank 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 no event will any Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank be required to pay any amount to any Loan Party the payment of which would place such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank in a less favorable net after-tax position than such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank would have been in if the additional amounts giving rise to such refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid.

(g) Cooperation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.15(e), with respect to non-U.S. withholding taxes, the relevant Agent, the relevant Lender(s) (at the written request of the relevant Loan Party) and the relevant Loan Party, shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary (including delivering any documentation prescribed by Applicable Law and making any necessary reasonable approaches to the relevant Taxing Authorities) for the relevant Loan Party to obtain authorization to make a payment to which such Agent or such Lender(s) is entitled without any, or a reduced rate of, deduction or withholding for, or on account of, Taxes; provided, however, that no Agent nor any Lender shall be required to provide any documentation that it is not legally entitled to provide, or take any action that, in the relevant Agents or the relevant Lenders reasonable

119

judgment, would subject such Agent or such Lender to any material unreimbursed costs or otherwise be disadvantageous to it in any material respect; and provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.15(g) shall require a Treaty Lender to: (A) register under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme; (B) apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme to any Borrowing if it has so registered; or (C) file Treaty forms if it is registered under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme and has indicated to the U.K. Borrower that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme to apply to this Agreement.

(h) Treaty Relief Time Limit Obligations. Subject to Section 2.15(g), a Treaty Lender in respect of an advance to the U.K. Borrower shall within 30 days of becoming a Lender in respect of that advance, (unless it is unable to do so as a result of any change after the date of this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or treaty, or any published practice or concession of any relevant Taxing Authority), and except where it is registered under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme and has indicated to the U.K. Borrower that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme to apply to this Agreement), file with the appropriate Taxing Authority for certification a duly completed U.K. double taxation relief application form for the U.K. Borrower to obtain authorization to pay interest to that Lender in respect of such advance without a deduction for Taxes in respect of Tax imposed by the United Kingdom on interest and provide the U.K. Borrower with reasonably satisfactory evidence that such form has been filed. If a Treaty Lender fails to comply with its obligations under this Section 2.15(h), the U.K. Borrower shall not be required to make an increased payment to that Lender under Section 2.15(a) until such time as such Lender has filed such relevant documentation. This Section 2.15(h) shall not apply to a Treaty Lender if a filing under the SL Scheme has been made in respect of that Treaty Lender in accordance with Section 2.15(j) and HM Revenue & Customs have confirmed that the SL Scheme is applicable in respect of that Treaty Lender. The Administrative Agent and/or the relevant Treaty Lender, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to promptly provide to HM Revenue & Customs any additional information or documentation requested by HM Revenue & Customs from the Administrative Agent or the relevant Treaty Lender (as the case may be) in connection with a treaty relief claim under this paragraph; provided, however that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Treaty Lender shall be required to provide any information or documentation that it is not legally entitled to provide, or take any action that, in the Administrative Agents or the relevant Lenders reasonable judgment would subject the Administrative Agent or such Lender to any material unreimbursed costs or otherwise be disadvantageous to it in any material respect;

(i) Requirement to Seek Refund in Respect of an Increased Payment. If the U.K. Borrower makes a tax deduction (a Tax Deduction) in respect of tax imposed by the United Kingdom on interest from a payment of interest to a Treaty Lender, and Section 2.15(a) applies to increase the amount of the payment due to that Treaty Lender from the U.K. Borrower, the U.K. Borrower shall promptly provide the Treaty Lender with an executed original certificate, in the form required by HM Revenue & Customs, evidencing the Tax Deduction. The Treaty Lender shall, within a reasonable period following receipt of such certificate, apply to HM Revenue & Customs for a refund of the amount of the tax deduction and, upon receipt by the Treaty Lender of such amount from HM Revenue & Customs, Section 2.15(f) shall apply in relation thereto and for the avoidance of doubt, a refund obtained pursuant to this Section 2.15(i) shall be considered as received by the Treaty Lender

120

for the purposes of Section 2.15(f) and no Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank shall have discretion to determine otherwise; provided, however, that this Section 2.15(i) shall not require a Treaty Lender to apply for a refund of the amount of the Tax Deduction if the procedural formalities required in relation to making such an application are materially more onerous or require the disclosure of materially more information than the procedural formalities required by HM Revenue & Customs as at the date of this Agreement in relation to such an application.

(j) U.K. Syndicated Loan Scheme.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.15(j) shall apply only if and to the extent that the SL Scheme is available to Treaty Lenders.

Each Treaty Lender:

(i) irrevocably appoints the U.K. Borrower to act as syndicate manager under, and authorizes the U.K. Borrower to operate, and take any action necessary or desirable under, the SL Scheme in connection with the Loan Documents and Loans;

(ii) shall cooperate with the U.K. Borrower in completing any procedural formalities necessary under the SL Scheme, and shall promptly supply to the U.K. Borrower such information as the U.K. Borrower may reasonably request in connection with the operation of the SL Scheme;

(iii) without limiting the liability of any Loan Party under this Agreement, shall, within five (5) Business Days of demand, indemnify the U.K. Borrower for any liability or loss incurred by the U.K. Borrower as a result of the U.K. Borrower acting as syndicate manager under the SL Scheme in connection with the Treaty Lenders participation in any Loan (except to the extent that the liability or loss arises directly from the U.K. Borrowers gross negligence or willful misconduct); and

(iv) shall, within five (5) Business Days of demand, indemnify the U.K. Borrower for any tax which the U.K. Borrower becomes liable to pay in respect of any payments made to such Treaty Lender arising as a result of any incorrect information supplied by such Treaty Lender under paragraph (ii) above which results in a provisional authority issued by the HM Revenue & Customs under the SL Scheme being withdrawn.

The U.K. Borrower acknowledges that it is fully aware of its contingent obligations under the SL Scheme and shall act in accordance with any provisional notice issued by the HM Revenue & Customs under the SL Scheme.

All parties acknowledge that the U.K. Borrower (acting as syndicate manager):

(v) is entitled to rely completely upon information provided to it in connection with this Section 2.15(j);

(vi) is not obliged to undertake any enquiry into the accuracy of such information, nor into the status of the Treaty Lender providing such information; and

121

(vii) shall have no liability to any person for the accuracy of any information it submits in connection with this Section 2.15(j).

(k) Tax Returns. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.15(h) or (j), if, as a result of executing a Loan Document, entering into the transactions contemplated thereby or with respect thereto, receiving a payment or enforcing its rights thereunder, an Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank is required to file a Tax Return in a jurisdiction in which it would not otherwise be required to file, the Loan Parties shall promptly provide such information necessary for the completion and filing of such Tax Return as the relevant Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank shall reasonably request with respect to the completion and filing of such Tax Return. For clarification, any expenses incurred in connection with such filing shall be subject to Section 11.03.

(l) Value Added Tax. All amounts set out, or expressed to be payable under a Loan Document by any party to a Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for value added tax purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any value added tax which is chargeable on such supply, and accordingly, if value added tax is chargeable on any supply made by any Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank to any party under a Loan Document, that party shall pay to the Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration) an amount equal to the amount of the value added tax (and such Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank shall promptly provide an appropriate value added invoice to such party).

Where a Loan Document requires any party to reimburse a Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank for any costs or expenses, that party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank against all value added tax incurred by the Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that the party reasonably determines that neither it nor any other member of any group of which it is a member for value added tax purposes is entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of the value added tax.

If any Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank requires any Loan Party to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 2.15(l), then such Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank and Loan Party shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate to minimize the amount such Loan Party is required to pay if, in the judgment of such Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank, such co-operation would not subject such Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank.

(m) FATCA. If a payment made by Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed pursuant to FATCA if any Lender fails to comply with applicable reporting and other requirements of FATCA (including those contained in section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (A) two accurate, complete and signed certifications prescribed by applicable law and/or reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent that establish that such payment is exempt from United States federal withholding tax imposed pursuant to FATCA and (B) any

122

other documentation reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent sufficient for Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such applicable reporting and other requirements of FATCA.

SECTION 2.16 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. Each Lender may at any time or from time to time designate, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, one or more lending offices (which, for this purpose, may include Affiliates of the respective Lender) for the various Loans made, and Letters of Credit participated in, by such Lender; provided that, to the extent such designation shall result, as of the time of such designation, in increased costs under Section 2.12 or Section 2.15 in excess of those which would be charged in the absence of the designation of a different lending office (including a different Affiliate of the respective Lender), then the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay such excess increased costs (although the Borrowers, in accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay the costs which would apply in the absence of such designation and any subsequent increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective designation); and provided, further, that with respect to any Loan (and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing), if such Lender is a Swiss Qualifying Bank, such branch or Affiliate must also qualify as a Swiss Qualifying Bank. Each lending office and Affiliate of any Lender designated as provided above shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be treated in the same manner as the respective Lender (and shall be entitled to all indemnities and similar provisions in respect of its acting as such hereunder). The first proviso to the first sentence of this Section 2.16(a) shall not apply to changes in a lending office pursuant to Section 2.16(b) if such change was made upon the written request of the Administrative Borrower.

(b) Mitigation Obligations. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or requires any Loan Party to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Taxing Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Loan Party hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. A certificate setting forth such costs and expenses submitted by such Lender to Administrative Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Taxing Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies that any Person may have, Administrative Agent may, by notice to such Lender within 120 days after such event, require such Lender to assign all of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to

123

Eligible Assignee(s) specified by Administrative Agent, pursuant to appropriate Assignment and Assumption(s) and within 20 days after Agents notice. Administrative Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such Assignment and Assumption if the Lender fails to execute same. Such Lender shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the Loan Documents, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of assignment (but excluding any prepayment charge).

SECTION 2.17 Swingline Loans.

(a) U.S. Swingline Loans. The Administrative Agent, the U.S. Swingline Lender and the Revolving Lenders agree that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, promptly after the Administrative Borrower requests a Base Rate Revolving Loan, the U.S. Swingline Lender may elect to have the terms of this Section 2.17(a) apply to up to $50,000,000 of such Borrowing Request by crediting, on behalf of the Revolving Lenders and in the amount requested, same day funds to the U.S. Borrowers, in the case of U.S. Revolving Loans made to them, or the Parent Borrower, in the case of U.S. Revolving Loans made to it (or, in the case of a U.S. Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement in respect of a U.S. Letter of Credit as provided in Section 2.18, by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank), on the applicable Borrowing date as directed by the Administrative Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request maintained with the Administrative Agent (each such Loan made solely by the U.S. Swingline Lender pursuant to this Section 2.17(a) is referred to in this Agreement as a U.S. Swingline Loan), with settlement among them as to the U.S. Swingline Loans to take place on a periodic basis as set forth in Section 2.17(c). Each U.S. Swingline Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to other Base Rate Revolving Loans funded by the Revolving Lenders, except that all payments thereon shall be payable to the U.S. Swingline Lender solely for its own account. U.S. Swingline Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 above such amount.

(b) U.S. Swingline Loan Participations. Upon the making of a U.S. Swingline Loan (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default and regardless of whether a Settlement has been requested with respect to such U.S. Swingline Loan), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the U.S. Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such U.S. Swingline Loan in proportion to its Pro Rata Percentage of the Revolving Commitment. The U.S. Swingline Lender may, at any time, require the Revolving Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Revolving Lender is required to fund its participation in any U.S. Swingline Loan purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent that are payable to such Lender in respect of such Loan.

(c) U.S. Swingline Loan Settlement. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the U.S. Swingline Lender, shall request settlement (a Settlement) with the Revolving Lenders on at least a weekly basis or on any date that the Administrative Agent elects, by notifying the

124

Revolving Lenders of such requested Settlement by facsimile, telephone, or e-mail no later than 12:00 noon, New York time on the date of such requested Settlement (the Settlement Date). Each Revolving Lender (other than the U.S. Swingline Lender, in the case of the U.S. Swingline Loans) shall transfer the amount of such Revolving Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested to the Administrative Agent, to such account of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York time, on such Settlement Date. Settlements may occur during the existence of a Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to the Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the U.S. Swingline Lenders U.S. Swingline Loans and, together with U.S. Swingline Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of such U.S. Swingline Loan, shall constitute U.S. Revolving Loans of such Revolving Lenders. If any such amount is not transferred to the Administrative Agent by any Revolving Lender on such Settlement Date, each of such Lender and the U.S. Borrowers severally agrees to repay to the U.S. Swingline Lender forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrowers until the date such amount is repaid to the U.S. Swingline Lender at (i) in the case of such U.S. Borrowers, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Interbank Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. If such Lender shall repay to the U.S. Swingline Bank such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lenders Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and the applicable Borrowers obligations to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.17(c) shall cease.

(d) European Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the European Swingline Lender agrees to make European Swingline Loans to the European Administrative Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not (subject to the provisions of Section 2.01(e)) result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding European Swingline Loans exceeding the European Swingline Commitment, (ii) the Total Adjusted Revolving Exposure exceeding the Total Adjusted Borrowing Base, or (iii) the Total Revolving Exposure exceeding the lesser of (A) the Total Revolving Commitment and (B) the Total Borrowing Base then in effect; provided that the European Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a European Swingline Loan (i) to refinance an outstanding European Swingline Loan, or if another European Swingline Loan is then outstanding or (ii) if a European Swingline Loan has been outstanding within three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such requested European Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the European Administrative Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow European Swingline Loans.

(e) European Swingline Loans. To request a European Swingline Loan, the European Administrative Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or telecopier, a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent and the European Swingline Lender, not later than 11:00 a.m., Zurich time, on the day of a proposed European Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date

125

(which shall be a Business Day), currency, Interest Period, and the amount of the requested European Swingline Loan. Each European Swingline Loan shall be a Eurocurrency Loan with an Interest Period between two days and seven days and shall be made in Euros, GBP or Swiss francs. The European Swingline Lender shall make each European Swingline Loan available to the European Administrative Borrower to an account as directed by the European Administrative Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request maintained with the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.18, by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank) by 4:00 p.m., Zurich time, on the requested date of such European Swingline Loan. The European Administrative Borrower shall not request a European Swingline Loan if at the time of or immediately after giving effect to the extension of credit contemplated by such request a Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom. European Swingline Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of 1,000,000 (for Loans denominated in Euros), GBP1,000,000 (for Loans denominated in GBP), or CHF1,000,000 (for Loans denominated in Swiss Francs) and integral multiples of 500,000, GBP500,000 or CHF500,000, respectively, above such amount.

(f) Prepayment. The European Administrative Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to repay any European Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written notice to the European Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent before 11:00 a.m., Zurich time, on the proposed date of repayment. All payments in respect of the European Swingline Loans shall be made to the European Swingline Lender at Agents Account.

(g) Participations. The European Swingline Lender may at any time in its discretion by written notice given to the Administrative Agent (provided such notice requirement shall not apply if the European Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent are the same entity) not later than 11:00 a.m., Zurich time, on the third succeeding Business Day following such notice require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the European Swingline Loans then outstanding; provided that European Swingline Lender shall not give such notice prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default; provided further, that if (x) such Event of Default is cured or waived in writing in accordance with the terms hereof, (y) no Obligations have yet been declared due and payable under Article 8 (or a rescission has occurred under Section 8.02) and (z) the European Swingline Lender has actual knowledge of such cure or waiver, all prior to the European Swingline Lenders giving (or being deemed to give) such notice, then the European Swingline Lender shall not give any such notice based upon such cured or waived Event of Default. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of European Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of such European Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the European Swingline Lender, such Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of such European Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in European Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the

126

occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (so long as such payment shall not cause such Lenders Pro Rata Percentage of the Total Revolving Exposure to exceed such Lenders Revolving Commitment). Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the European Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the European Administrative Borrower of any participations in any European Swingline Loan acquired by the Revolving Lenders pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such European Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the European Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the European Swingline Lender from the European Administrative Borrower (or other party on behalf of the European Administrative Borrower) in respect of a European Swingline Loan after receipt by the European Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent. Any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a European Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the European Administrative Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(h) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, no Person shall be or become European Swingline Lender hereunder unless such Person is a Swiss Qualifying Bank.

SECTION 2.18 Letters of Credit.

(a) (i) The Initial Issuing Bank shall (and other Issuing Banks may, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.18) issue Letters of Credit from time to time at the request of the Administrative Borrower (or, as provided below with respect to Canadian Dollar Denominated Letters of Credit, Parent Borrower) (each, a U.S. Letter of Credit) denominated in any Approved Currency (Canadian Dollars in the case of a Canadian Dollar Denominated Letters of Credit) for the account of a Loan Party (with respect to Canadian Dollar Denominated Letters of Credit, a Canadian Loan Party) until 30 days prior to the Maturity Date applicable to Revolving Loans (provided that Administrative Borrower (or, with respect to Canadian Dollar Denominated Letters of Credit, Parent Borrower) shall be a co-applicant, and be jointly and severally liable, with respect to each U.S. Letter of Credit issued for the account of another Loan Party; and provided, further that U.S. Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars may be issued an Issuing Bank (in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.18) for the account of a Canadian Loan Party (with Parent Borrower as applicant or co-applicant) (each, a Canadian Dollar Denominated Letter of Credit)) and (ii) the Initial Issuing Bank shall (and other Issuing Banks may, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.18) issue Letters of Credit from time to time at the request of the European Administrative Borrower (each, a European Letter of Credit) denominated in any Approved Currency for the account of a

127

Loan Party until 30 days prior to the Maturity Date applicable to Revolving Loans (provided that the European Administrative Borrower shall be a co-applicant, and be jointly and severally liable, with respect to each European Letter of Credit issued for the account of another Loan Party), in each case on the terms set forth herein, including the following:

(i) Each Borrower acknowledges that each Issuing Banks issuance of any Letter of Credit is conditioned upon such Issuing Banks receipt of an LC Application with respect to the requested Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as such Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. No Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit unless (i) such Issuing Bank receives an LC Request and LC Application at least two Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the such Issuing Bank); (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied; and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender exists, such Lender or Borrowers have entered into arrangements satisfactory to Administrative Agent and each applicable Issuing Bank to eliminate any funding risk associated with the Defaulting Lender. If an Issuing Bank receives written notice from a Lender at least five Business Days before issuance of a Letter of Credit that any LC Condition has not been satisfied, such Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue the requested Letter of Credit (or any other) until such notice is withdrawn in writing by that Lender or until Required Lenders have waived such condition in accordance with this Agreement. Prior to receipt of any such notice, no Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.

(ii) Letters of Credit may be requested by Administrative Borrower, European Administrative Borrower or Parent Borrower only (i) to support obligations of such Borrower or another Loan Party (which shall be a Canadian Loan Party in the case of Canadian Dollar Denominated Letters of Credit). The renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application shall be required at the discretion of the applicable Issuing Bank.

(iii) The Loan Parties assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary. In connection with issuance of any Letter of Credit, none of Administrative Agent, any other Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any LC Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any LC Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any LC Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a Letter of Credit or LC Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and a Loan Party; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank, any Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority. The rights and remedies of each Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents and the LC Documents shall be cumulative. Each Issuing Bank shall be fully

128

subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against Borrowers are discharged with proceeds of any Letter of Credit.

(iv) In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Letters of Credit or LC Documents, each Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or communication in whatever form believed by such Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person. Each Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts. Each Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.

(v) If Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit application, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit), provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the Non-Extension Notice Date) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by such Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date at least 20 Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided, however, that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) such Issuing Bank 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, 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) from Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Loan Party that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

(b) Reimbursement; Participations.

(i) If an Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Letter of Credit, the Applicable LC Applicant shall pay to such Issuing Bank, (A) if the Administrative Agent provides notice of such payment to the Administrative Borrower before 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the same day, and (B) if the Administrative Agent provides such notice after such time, on the next Business Day (such applicable date, the Reimbursement Date), the amount paid by such Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for Base Rate Revolving Loans from the Reimbursement Date until payment by Borrowers; provided that, in the case of any payment on a Canadian Dollar Denominated Letter of Credit, such payment shall be the Dollar Equivalent of the amount paid by such Issuing Bank under such

129

Letter of Credit, together with interest in Dollars at the interest rate for Base Rate Revolving Loans from the Reimbursement Date until payment by Borrowers. The obligation of Borrowers to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrowers may have at any time against the beneficiary. Whether or not the Applicable Administrative Borrower submits a Notice of Borrowing, the Applicable Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have requested Base Rate Revolving Loans in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent amount of such LC Disbursement, or with respect to LC Disbursements in euros or GBP, European Swingline Loans in an equivalent amount of such currency, in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due to an Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 4 are satisfied.

(ii) Upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from the applicable Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all LC Obligations relating to the Letter of Credit; provided that, in the case of LC Obligations in respect of any Canadian Dollar Denominated Letter of Credit, such undivided Pro Rata interest and participation shall be in the Dollar Equivalent thereof. If an Issuing Bank makes any payment under a Letter of Credit and Borrowers do not reimburse such payment on the Reimbursement Date, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Lenders and each Lender shall promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Bank, the Lenders Pro Rata share of such payment; provided that, in the case of any payment by Lenders with respect to a Canadian Dollar Denominated Letter of Credit, such payment shall be the Dollar Equivalent of such unreimbursed payment. Upon request by a Lender, each Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession at such time.

(iii) The obligation of each Lender to make payments to Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank in connection with such Issuing Banks payment under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any setoff or defense that any Loan Party may have with respect to any Obligations. No Issuing Bank assumes any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Borrower or other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents. No Issuing Bank makes to Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the Collateral, LC Documents or any Loan Party. No Issuing Bank shall be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Loan Party.

130

(iv) No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents except as a result of its actual gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Issuing Bank shall have any liability to any Lender if such Issuing Bank refrains from any action under any Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from Required Lenders.

(c) Cash Collateral. If any LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) that Excess Availability is less than zero, or (c) within 20 Business Days prior to the Maturity Date, then Borrowers shall, at Issuing Banks or Administrative Agents request, cash collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount equal to 105% of all LC Exposure. Borrowers shall, on demand by at Issuing Banks or Administrative Agent from time to time, cash collateralize 105% of the LC Exposure of any Defaulting Lender. If Borrowers fail to provide any cash collateral as required hereunder, Lenders may (and shall upon direction of Administrative Agent) advance, as Loans, the amount of the cash collateral required (whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 4 are satisfied).

(d) Resignation of Initial Issuing Bank. Initial Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon notice to Administrative Agent and Administrative Borrower. On the effective date of such resignation, Initial Issuing Bank shall have no further obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have the benefits of Sections 2.18, 10.05 and 11.03 with respect to any Letters of Credit issued or other actions taken while Issuing Bank. Administrative Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement Initial Issuing Bank and, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, such replacement shall be reasonably acceptable to Administrative Borrower.

(e) Additional Issuing Banks. The Applicable Administrative Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit under the terms of this Agreement, in each case with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender(s). Any Lender designated as an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph (e) shall be deemed (in addition to being a Lender) to be the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and all references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term Issuing Bank shall, with respect to such Letters of Credit, be deemed to refer to such Lender in its capacity as Issuing Bank, as the context shall require. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, no Person shall be or become an Issuing Bank hereunder unless such Person is a Swiss Qualifying Bank.

(f) Existing Letters of Credit. On the Closing Date, (i) each Existing Letter of Credit, to the extent outstanding, shall be automatically and without further action by the parties thereto deemed converted into Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.18 for the account of the Loan Parties set forth on Schedule 2.18(a) and subject to the provisions hereof, and for this purpose fees in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.05(c) 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, except to the extent that such fees are also payable pursuant to Section 2.05(c)) as if such Existing Letters of Credit

131

had been issued on the Closing Date, (ii) the Lenders set forth on Schedule 2.18(a), or their designated Affiliates who are eligible to be Issuing Banks, shall be deemed to be the Issuing Bank with respect to each such Existing Letter of Credit, (iii) such Letters of Credit shall each be included in the calculation of LC Exposure and U.S. LC Exposure or European LC Exposure, as applicable, and (iv) all liabilities of the Loan Parties with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Loan Parties shall not be required to pay any additional issuance fees with respect to the issuance of such Existing Letter of Credit solely as a result of such letter of credit being converted to a Letter of Credit hereunder, it being understood that the fronting, participation and other fees set forth in Section 2.05(c) shall otherwise apply to such Existing Letters of Credit. No Existing Letter of Credit converted in accordance with this clause (f) shall be amended, extended or renewed except in accordance with the terms hereof.

(g) Existing Commerzbank Letters of Credit. On the Closing Date, (i) each Existing Commerzbank Letter of Credit, to the extent outstanding, shall be automatically and without further action by the parties thereto deemed converted into Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.18 for the account of the Loan Parties set forth on Schedule 2.18(b) and subject to the provisions hereof, and for this purpose fees in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.05(c) shall be payable (in substitution for any fees set forth in the applicable letter of credit reimbursement agreements or applications relating to such Existing Commerzbank Letters of Credit, except to the extent that such fees are also payable pursuant to Section 2.05(c)) as if such Existing Commerzbank Letters of Credit had been issued on the Closing Date, (ii) the designated Affiliates of Commerzbank listed on Schedule 2.18(b) shall be deemed to be the Issuing Bank with respect to their respective Existing Commerzbank Letters of Credit, (iii) such Letters of Credit shall each be included in the calculation of LC Exposure, and either U.S. LC Exposure or European LC Exposure, as applicable, and (iv) all liabilities of the Loan Parties with respect to such Existing Commerzbank Letters of Credit shall constitute Obligations.

No Existing Commerzbank Letter of Credit converted in accordance with this clause (g) shall be amended, extended or renewed. In the event that Commerzbank or any of its Affiliates becomes a Lender hereunder, the Existing Commerzbank Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be converted on such day to Existing Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.18(f). Upon (i) the expiration of all Existing Commerzbank Letter of Credit, (ii) cash collateralization thereof (or delivery of a standby letter of credit reasonably acceptable to Commerzbank, in the amount of required cash collateral) in an amount equal to 105% of all LC Exposure in respect thereof or (iii) the full and indefeasible cash payment of all Obligations in respect thereof (including all reimbursement obligations, interest, fees and other amounts payable, other than indemnity obligations with respect to which no claim has been asserted), Commerzbank shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder in its capacity as Issuing Bank (other than with respect to provisions stated pursuant to Section 11.05 to survive termination of this Agreement), but shall continue to have the benefits of the exculpatory provisions of this Section 2.18 and the indemnification set forth in Sections 10.05

and 11.03 with respect to matters originating during the time period from the Closing Date through such discharge.

(h) Other. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, no Person shall be or become an Issuing Bank hereunder unless such Person is a Swiss Qualifying Bank. No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

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

(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank; or

(iii) where the Letter of Credit is a Standby Letter of Credit, if the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit is resident in Ireland or, where the beneficiary is a legal person, its place of establishment to which the Letter of Credit relates is in Ireland, unless such Issuing Bank is duly authorized to carry on the business of issuing contracts of suretyship in Ireland (or is otherwise exempted under the laws of Ireland from the requirement to have any such authorization).

SECTION 2.19 Interest Act (Canada); Criminal Rate of Interest; Nominal Rate of Interest.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, solely to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines that the calculation or determination of interest or any fee payable by any Canadian Loan Party in respect of the Obligations pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be governed by the laws of any province of Canada or the federal laws of Canada, in no event shall the aggregate interest (as defined in Section 347 of the Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46, as the same shall be amended, replaced or re-enacted from time to time, Section 347)) payable by the Canadian Loan Parties to the Agents or any Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the Credit advances (as defined in Section 347) under this Agreement or such other Loan Document lawfully permitted under Section 347 and, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in respect of Interest (as defined in Section 347) is determined to be contrary to the provisions of Section 347, such payment, collection or demand shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the Agents,

133

the Lenders and the Canadian Loan Parties and the amount of such payment or collection shall be refunded by the relevant Agents and Lenders to the applicable Canadian Loan Parties. For the purposes of this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which the Canadian Loan Parties are a party, the effective annual rate of interest payable by the Canadian Loan Parties shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles over the term of the loans on the basis of annual compounding for the lawfully permitted rate of interest and, in the event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Canadian Loan Parties will be conclusive for the purpose of such determination in the absence of evidence to the contrary.

(b) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and with respect to Canadian Loan Parties only:

(i) whenever any interest or fee payable by the Canadian Loan Parties is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, the rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which such rate is to be ascertained and (z) divided by 360 or 365, as the case may be; and

(ii) all calculations of interest payable by the Canadian Loan Parties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document are to be made on the basis of the nominal interest rate described herein and therein and not on the basis of effective yearly rates or on any other basis which gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest.

The parties hereto acknowledge that there is a material difference between the stated nominal interest rates and the effective yearly rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations required to determine such effective yearly rates of interest.

SECTION 2.20 [intentionally omitted].

SECTION 2.21 Representation to Swiss Borrower.

(a) Each Lender on the Closing Date represents that it is a Swiss Qualifying Bank or a Swiss Non-Qualifying Bank as further indicated on Schedule 2.21. Each Lender represents to Swiss Borrower on the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement in its capacity as such whether it is a Swiss Qualifying Bank or a Swiss Non-Qualifying Bank, as indicated on the applicable Assignment and Assumption.

(b) Each Lender shall, if requested to do so by Swiss Borrower, within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such request confirm, as at the date on which it gives such confirmation whether it is a Swiss Qualifying Bank or a Swiss Non-Qualifying Bank (or, if it requires a confirmation by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration in order to be able to give such confirmation, a request for such a confirmation shall be filed by the relevant Lender with the Swiss Federal Tax Administration within ten (10) Business Days of it receiving such request and, upon receipt of the required confirmation from the Swiss Federal Tax

134

Administration, the necessary confirmation by the relevant Lender shall be made within ten (10) Business Days of such confirmation being received by it).

(c) Any Lender that ceases to be a Swiss Qualifying Bank shall provide written notice to Administrative Borrower and Administrative Agent at least twenty (20) Business Days prior to the time that it ceases to be a Swiss Qualifying Bank. If as a result of such event the number of Swiss Non-Qualifying Banks under this Agreement exceeds the number ten, then, so long as no Significant Event of Default is in existence, Administrative Borrower shall have the right to request that the relevant Lender assign or transfer by novation all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee qualifying as a Swiss Qualifying Bank or another Lender qualifying as a Swiss Qualifying Bank, all in accordance with Section 11.04. The Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for determining whether or not an entity is a Swiss Qualified Bank, but shall track the number of Lenders from time to time that were unable to represent that they were Swiss Qualifying Banks in order to determine whether the number of Swiss Non-Qualifying Banks under this Agreement exceeds the number ten; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no liability for any determinations made hereunder unless such liability arises from its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable decision).

(d) This Section 2.21, Section 2.06(j), Section 5.15 and Section 11.04(f) shall apply accordingly to any Borrower (other than Swiss Borrower), which is incorporated or established under the laws of, or for tax purposes resident in, Switzerland, or for tax purposes having a permanent establishment in Switzerland with which a Loan is effectively connected.

SECTION 2.22 Blocked Loan Parties. If a Loan Party would have been required to make any payment or perform any action under any provision of the Loan Documents but the relevant provision(s) (or any portion thereof) is (are) not enforceable against that Loan Party or for any other reason that Loan Party is unable to fulfill its obligations under the Loan Documents (a Blocked Loan Party), the Administrative Borrower may designate which Loan Party shall fulfill the Blocked Loan Partys obligations, but only so long as the designated Loan Party is duly and promptly fulfilling such obligations, failing which all Loan Parties shall be jointly and severally liable for the performance thereof.

SECTION 2.23 Increase in Commitments.

(a) Borrowers Request. The Borrowers may by written notice to the Administrative Agent and each Lender elect to request prior to the Maturity Date, one or more increases to the existing Revolving Commitments by an amount not in excess of $200,000,000 in the aggregate, each in a minimum amount of $25,000,000 (and increments of $1,000,000 above that minimum) (each such increase, an Incremental Revolving Commitment). Such notice shall specify the date on which the Borrowers propose that the Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be effective (each, an Increase Effective Date), and the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond, which in each case shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the applicable Class. Each Lender of such Class (other than Lenders subject to replacement pursuant to Section 2.16 or a Defaulting Lender) in its sole and absolute discretion may notify the Administrative Agent

135

within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower and each Lender of such Class of the Lenders responses to each request made hereunder. If the existing Lenders do not agree to the full amount of a requested Incremental Revolving Commitment, the Administrative Borrower may then invite a Lender or any Lenders to increase their Commitments or invite additional financial institutions (each, an Additional Lender) (reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and solely to the extent permitted by Section 11.04 (including Section 11.04(h)) and each other applicable requirement hereof, including Sections 2.21 and 5.15) to become Lenders and provide Incremental Revolving Commitments pursuant to an Increase Joinder.

(b) Conditions. The increased or new Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increase Effective Date; provided that:

(i) each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied;

(ii) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from the borrowings to be made on the Increase Effective Date;

(iii) after giving pro forma effect to the borrowings to be made on the Increase Effective Date and to any change in Consolidated EBITDA and any increase in Indebtedness resulting from the consummation of any Permitted Acquisition or other Investment or application of funds made with the proceeds of such borrowings, the Borrowers shall, as of such date, be in compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 6.10, to the extent applicable;

(iv) the Borrowers shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.12 in connection with any adjustment of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.23(d); and

(v) the Borrowers shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction.

(c) Terms of New Loans and Commitments. The terms and provisions of Loans made pursuant to Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be identical to the Revolving Loans of the same Class (subject to the payment of any customary arrangement, underwriting or similar fees that are paid to the arranger of such Incremental Revolving Commitments in its capacity as such). The increased or new Commitments shall be effected by a joinder agreement (the Increase Joinder) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and Additional Lender making such Incremental Revolving Commitment, in form and substance satisfactory to each of them. The Increase Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.23. In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in Loan Documents to Revolving Loans shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include references to Revolving Loans made pursuant to

136

Incremental Revolving Commitments made pursuant to this Agreement, and all references in Loan Documents to Commitments of a Class shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include references to Incremental Revolving Commitments of such Class made pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) Adjustment of Revolving Loans. Each of the Revolving Lenders having a Revolving Commitment of an applicable Class prior to such Increase Effective Date (the Pre-Increase Revolving Lenders) shall assign to any Revolving Lender which is acquiring a new or additional Revolving Commitment of such Class on the Increase Effective Date (the Post-Increase Revolving Lenders), and such Post-Increase Revolving Lenders shall purchase from each Pre-Increase Revolving Lender, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in the Revolving Loans of such Class and participation interests in LC Exposure and Swingline Loans of such Class outstanding on such Increase Effective Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans and participation interests in LC Exposure and Swingline Loans will be held by Pre-Increase Revolving Lenders and Post-Increase Revolving Lenders of such Class ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments of such Class after giving effect to such increased Revolving Commitments.

(e) Equal and Ratable Benefit. The Loans and Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2.23 shall constitute Loans and Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guarantees and security interests created by the Security Documents. The Loan Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Lien and security interests granted by the Security Documents continue to be perfected under the UCC, the PPSA or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any such new Commitments.

Such capitalization table has been prepared in good faith by the Loan Parties, based on the assumptions stated therein (which assumptions are believed by the Loan Parties on the date hereof to be reasonable), are based on the best information available to the Loan Parties as of the date of delivery thereof, accurately reflect all adjustments required to be made to give effect to the Transactions and present fairly in all material respects the pro forma capitalization of Holdings as of such date assuming the Transactions had occurred at such date.

(d) Forecasts. The forecasts of financial performance of the Parent Borrower and its subsidiaries furnished to the Lenders have been prepared in good faith by the Loan Parties and based on assumptions believed by the Loan Parties to be reasonable, it being understood that any such forecasts may vary from actual results and such variations may be material.

139

(d) Collateral. Each Company owns or has rights to use all of the Collateral used in, necessary for or material to each Companys business as currently conducted, except where the failure to have such ownership or rights of use could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Each Loan Party owns, or is licensed to use, all patents, trademarks, copyrights and other intellectual property (including intellectual property in software, mask works, inventions, designs, trade names, service marks, technology, trade secrets, proprietary information and data, domain names, know-how and processes) necessary for the conduct of such Loan Partys business as currently conducted (Intellectual Property), except for those the failure to own or license which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. As of the date hereof, no material claim has been asserted and is pending by any person, challenging or questioning the validity of any Loan Partys Intellectual Property or the validity or enforceability of any such Intellectual Property, nor does any Loan Party know of any valid basis for any such claim.

No Company or any of its property is in violation of, nor will the continued operation of its property as currently conducted violate, any Applicable Law (including any zoning or building ordinance, code or approval or any building permits) or any restrictions of record or agreements

No Company is in default in any manner under any provision of any indenture or other agreement or instrument evidencing Indebtedness, or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is or may be bound, where such default could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. There is no existing default under any Organizational Document of any Company or any event which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, would constitute a default by any party thereunder that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

No part of the proceeds of any Loan or any Letter of Credit will be used, whether directly or indirectly, and whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately, for any purpose that entails a violation of, or that is inconsistent with, the provisions of the regulations of the Board, including Regulation T, U or X. The pledge of the Securities Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents does not violate such regulations.

SECTION 3.11 Investment Company Act. No Company is an investment company or a company controlled by an investment company, as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

SECTION 3.12 Use of Proceeds.

No Company has received written notice of any proposed or pending tax assessments, deficiencies or audits that could be reasonably expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Company has ever been a party to any understanding or arrangement constituting a tax shelter within the meaning of Section

SECTION 3.14 No Material Misstatements. The written information (including the Confidential Information Memorandum), reports, financial statements, certificates, exhibits or schedules furnished by or on behalf of any Company to any Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of any Loan Document or included therein or delivered pursuant thereto, taken as a whole, did not and does not contain any material misstatement of fact and, taken as a whole, did not and does not omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were or are made, not materially misleading in their presentation of Holdings, the Parent Borrower and their Subsidiaries taken as a whole as of the date such information is dated or certified; provided that to the extent any such information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule was based upon or constitutes a forecast or projection, each Loan Party represents only that it was prepared in good faith and based on assumptions believed by the applicable Loan Parties to be reasonable.

The hours worked by and payments made to employees of any Company have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, or any other applicable federal, state, provincial, local or foreign law dealing with such matters in any manner which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. All payments due from any Company, or for which any claim may be made against any Company, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of such Company except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Company is bound, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.16 Solvency. (i) At the time of and immediately after the consummation of the Transactions to occur on the Closing Date and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of each Loan made on such date, the Closing Date Distribution and the operation of the Contribution, Intercompany, Contracting and Offset Agreement, (a) the fair value of the assets of each Loan Party (individually and on a consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries) will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent, prospective or otherwise; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of each Loan Party (individually and on a consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries) will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent, prospective or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) each Loan Party (individually and on a consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries) will be able to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent, prospective or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; (d) each Loan Party (individually and on a consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries) will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct its business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted following the Closing Date; and (e)

(ii) At the time of and immediately following the making of each Loan and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of each Loan and the operation of the Contribution, Intercompany, Contracting and Offset Agreement, (a) the fair value of the assets of each Borrower, Borrowing Base Guarantor and Receivables Seller (for purposes of this Section 3.16, a Principal Loan Party) (individually and on a consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries) will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent, prospective or otherwise; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of each Principal Loan Party (individually and on a consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries) will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent, prospective or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) each Principal Loan Party (individually and on a consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries) will be able to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent, prospective or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; (d) each Principal Loan Party (individually and on a consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries) will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct its business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted following the Closing Date; and (e) each Principal Loan Party is not insolvent as such term is defined under any Debtor Relief Laws of any jurisdiction in which such Principal Loan Party is organized or incorporated (as applicable), or otherwise unable to pay its debts as they fall due.

SECTION 3.17 Employee Benefit Plans. Each Company and its ERISA Affiliates is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder except for such non-compliance that in the aggregate would not have a Material Adverse Effect. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or the imposition of a Lien on any of the property of any Company. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used in the most recent actuarial valuations used for the respective Plans) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the property of all such underfunded Plans in an amount which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Using actuarial assumptions and computation methods consistent with subpart I of subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA, the aggregate liabilities of each Company or its ERISA Affiliates to all Multiemployer Plans in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Multiemployer Plan, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

To the extent applicable, each Foreign Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of Applicable Law and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable Governmental Authority and Taxing Authority, except for such non-compliance that in the aggregate would not have a Material Adverse Effect. No Company has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Plan, except to the extent of liabilities which could not reasonably be expected to have a

144

Material Adverse Effect. Each Foreign Plan that is required to be funded is funded in accordance with the requirements of Applicable Law, and with respect to each Foreign Plan that is not required to be funded, the obligations of such Foreign Plan are properly accrued in the financial statements of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries, in each case in an amount that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Except as specified on Schedule 3.17, (i) no Company is or has at any time been an employer (for the purposes of Sections 38 to 51 of the Pensions Act 2004) of an occupational pension scheme which is not a money purchase scheme (both terms as defined in the Pensions Schemes Act 1993), and (ii) no Company is or has at any time been connected with or an associate of (as those terms are used in Sections 39 and 43 of the Pensions Act 2004) such an employer.

(vii) No person with an indemnity or contribution obligation to the Companies relating to compliance with or liability under Environmental Law is in default with respect to such obligation.

(b) As of the Closing Date:

(i) Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Company is obligated to perform any action or otherwise incur any expense under Environmental Law pursuant to any order, decree, judgment or agreement by which it is bound or has assumed by contract, agreement or operation of law, and no Company is conducting or financing any Response pursuant to any Environmental Law with respect to any Real Property or any other location; and

(ii) No Real Property or facility owned, operated or leased by the Companies and, to the knowledge of the Companies, no Real Property or facility formerly owned, operated or leased by the Companies or any of their predecessors in interest is (i) listed or proposed for listing on the National Priorities List promulgated pursuant to CERCLA, or (ii) listed on the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Information System promulgated pursuant to CERCLA and is reasonably likely to result in any material liability to any Company, or (iii) included on any other publicly available list of contaminated sites maintained by any Governmental Authority analogous to CERCLA or the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. §6901 et seq., including any such list relating to the management or clean-up of petroleum and is reasonably likely to result in any material liability to a Company.

All insurance maintained by the Companies to the extent required by Section 5.04 is in full force and effect, and all premiums thereon have been duly paid. As of the Closing Date, no Company has received notice of violation or cancellation thereof, the Mortgaged Property, and the use, occupancy and operation thereof, comply in all material respects with all Insurance Requirements, and there exists no material default under any Insurance Requirement.

In addition to the guarantee contained herein, each Guarantor that is a Foreign Subsidiary, as well as Holdings, shall execute a Guarantee governed by the Applicable Law of such Persons jurisdiction of organization (each such Guarantee, a Foreign Guarantee) and to the extent that the provisions of this ARTICLE VII shall duplicate or conflict with the provisions thereof, the terms of the Foreign Guarantees shall govern the obligations of such Guarantors. The Guarantors hereby

202

jointly and severally agree that if Borrower(s) or other Guarantor(s) shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever as if it was the principal obligor, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. Without prejudice to the generality of Section 7.01 and Section 7.02, each Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental and of whatsoever nature and whether or not more onerous) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Loan Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Loan Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling investor distributions or Dividends to be made (including the Closing Date Distribution); carrying out restructurings; refinancing existing facilities; refinancing any other indebtedness; making facilities available to new borrowers; any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing.

SECTION 7.02 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 7.01 shall constitute a guaranty of payment and not of collection and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrowers or any other Loan Party under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or Guarantor (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived or the Maturity Date shall be extended with respect to all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

203

(iv) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Issuing Bank, Lender or Agent as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; or

(v) the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.09.

The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Borrower or any other Loan Party under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between Borrowers and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by Secured Parties, and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against any Borrower or any other Loan Party, or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

SECTION 7.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this ARTICLE VII shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that they will indemnify each Secured Party on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by such Secured Party in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any Debtor Relief Law, other than any costs or expenses resulting from the bad faith or willful misconduct of such Secured Party.

SECTION 7.04 Subrogation; Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the indefeasible and irrevocable payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 7.01, whether by

204

subrogation or otherwise, against any Borrower or any other Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any Indebtedness of any Loan Party permitted pursuant to Section 6.01(d) (or any other loan or advance between Loan Parties other than the Forward Share Sale Agreement) shall be subordinated to such Loan Partys Secured Obligations a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 7.05 Remedies. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.01 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 8.01) for purposes of Section 7.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against Borrowers and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by Borrowers) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 7.01.

SECTION 7.06 Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this ARTICLE VII constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

SECTION 7.07 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this ARTICLE VII is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

SECTION 7.08 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any Debtor Relief Law, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 7.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 7.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount after giving effect to the rights of contribution established in the Contribution, Intercompany, Contracting and Offset Agreement that are valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

SECTION 7.09 Release of Guarantors. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, (a) Equity Interests of any Subsidiary Guarantor are issued, sold or transferred such that it ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (a Transferred Guarantor) to a person or persons, none of which is a Loan Party or a Subsidiary, (b) a Guarantor is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the Loan Documents, (c) a Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a Loan Party after the Closing Date is subsequently designated as an Excluded Collateral Subsidiary in accordance with the definition thereof, or (d) a Qualified Parent Borrower IPO shall occur, then, such Transferred Guarantor (in the case of clause (a)), such Unrestricted Subsidiary (in the case of clause (b)), such Restricted Subsidiary (in the case of

205

clause (c)), or Holdings (in the case of clause (d)), shall, upon the consummation of such issuance, sale or transfer or upon such designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or Excluded Collateral Subsidiary or upon the completion of the Qualified Parent Borrower IPO, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 11.03 hereof) and any other Loan Documents to which it is a party and its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Security Document, and the Collateral Agent shall take such actions as are within its powers to effect each release described in this Section 7.09 in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement; provided that such Guarantor is also released from its obligations, if any, under the Term Loan Documents, the Senior Note Documents, the Additional Senior Secured Indebtedness Documents and other Material Indebtedness guaranteed by such Person on the same terms.

SECTION 7.10 Certain Tax Matters. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2.06(j), 2.15, 2.21 or 2.22, if a Loan Party makes a payment hereunder that is subject to withholding tax in excess of the withholding tax that would have been imposed on payments made by the Borrower with respect to whose obligation it is making a payment, the Loan Parties shall increase the amount of such payment such that, after deduction and payment of all such withholding taxes (including withholding taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the payee receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received if no such excess withholding tax had been imposed; provided, that the Agent or Lender provides, as reasonably requested by the relevant Loan Party and as required under Sections 2.15(e), 2.15(g), or 2.15(h), as the case may be, such forms, certificates and documentation that it is legally entitled to furnish and would be required to reduce or eliminate withholding and, with respect to non-U.S. withholding taxes, would not, in the Administrative Agents or the relevant Lenders reasonable judgment, subject it to any material unreimbursed costs or otherwise be disadvantageous to it in any material respect.

206

SECTION 7.11 German Guarantor.

(a) Subject to Section 7.11(b) through Section 7.11(e) below, the Secured Parties shall not enforce the guarantee obligations of a German Guarantor existing in the form of a German limited liability company or limited partnership with a limited liability company as partner (GmbH or GmbH & Co. KG) under this Article VII to the extent (i) such German Guarantor guarantees obligations of one of its shareholders or of an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of a shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (other than a Subsidiary of that German Guarantor or the German Guarantor itself), and (ii) the enforcement of such guarantee for shareholder obligations would reduce, in violation of Section 30 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbHG), the net assets (assets minus liabilities minus provisions and liability reserves (Reinvermögen), in each case as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) as consistently applied by such German Guarantor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluss gem. § 42 GmbH Act, §§ 242, 264 HGB) of the German Guarantor (or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) to an amount that is insufficient to maintain its (or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partners) registered share capital (Stammkapital) (or would increase an existing shortage in its net assets below its registered share capital); provided that for the purpose of determining the relevant registered share capital and the net assets, as the case may be:

(i) The amount of any increase of registered share capital (Stammkapital) of such German Guarantor (or its general partner in the form of a GmbH) implemented after the date of this Agreement that is effected without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent shall be deducted from the registered share capital of the German Guarantor (or its general partner in the form of a GmbH);

(ii) any loans provided to the German Guarantor by a direct or indirect shareholder or an affiliate thereof (other than a Subsidiary of such German Guarantor) shall be disregarded and not accounted for as a liability to the extent that such loans are subordinated pursuant to Section 39(1) Nr. 1 through Nr. 5 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) or subordinated in any other way by law or contract;

(iii) any shareholder loans, other loans and contractual obligations and liabilities incurred by the German Guarantor in violation of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents shall be disregarded and not accounted for as liabilities;

(iv) any assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value that, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, is significantly lower than their market value and that are not necessary for the business of the German Guarantor (nicht betriebsnotwendig) shall be accounted for with their market value; and

(v) the assets of the German Guarantor will be assessed at liquidation values (Liquidationswerte) if, at the time the managing directors prepare the balance sheet in accordance with paragraph (b) below and absent the demand a positive going concern prognosis (positive Fortbestehensprognose) cannot be established.

207

(b) The limitations set out in Section 7.11(a) only apply:

(i) if and to the extent that the managing directors of the German Guarantor (or in the case of a GmbH Co. KG, its general partner) have confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days of a demand for payment under this Article VII the amount of the obligations under this Article VII which cannot be paid without causing the net assets of such German Guarantor (or in the case of a GmbH Co. KG, its general partner) to fall below its registered share capital, or increase an existing shortage in net assets below its registered share capital (taking into account the adjustments set out above) and such confirmation is supported by a current balance sheet and other evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender raises any objections against that confirmation within five Business Days after its receipt; or

(ii) if, within twenty Business Days after an objection under clause (i) has been raised by the Administrative Agent or a Lender, the Administrative Agent receives a written audit report (Auditors Determination) prepared at the expense of the relevant German Guarantor by a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation that is appointed by the German Guarantor and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, to the extent such report identifies the amount by which the net assets of that German Guarantor (or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner in the form of a GmbH) are necessary to maintain its registered share capital as at the date of the demand under this Article VII (taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Auditors Determination shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer Buchführung) as consistently applied by the German Guarantor in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet. The Auditors Determination shall be binding for all Parties except for manifest error.

(c) In any event, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to enforce the guarantee up to those amounts that are undisputed between them and the relevant German Guarantor or determined in accordance with Section 7.11(a) and Section 7.11(b). In respect of the exceeding amounts, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to further pursue their claims (if any) and the German Guarantor shall be entitled to provide evidence that the excess amounts are necessary to maintain its registered share capital (calculated as at the date of demand under this Article VII and taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Secured Parties are entitled to pursue those parts of the guarantee obligations of the German Guarantor that are not enforced by operation of Section 7.11(a) above at any subsequent point in time. This Section 7.11 shall apply again as of the time such additional demands are made.

(d) Section 7.11(a) shall not apply as to the amount of Loans borrowed under this Agreement and passed on (whether by way of shareholder loan or equity contribution) to the respective German Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries as long as the respective shareholder loan is outstanding or the respective equity contribution has not been dissolved or otherwise repaid.

(e) Should it become legally permissible for managing directors of a German Guarantor to enter into guarantees in support of obligations of their shareholders without limitations, the limitations set forth in Section 7.11(a) shall no longer apply. Should any such

208

guarantees become subject to legal restrictions that are less stringent than the limitations set forth in Section 7.11(a) above, such less stringent limitations shall apply. Otherwise, Section 7.11(a) shall remain unaffected by changes in Applicable Law.

(f) The limitations provided for in paragraph (a) above shall not apply where (i) the relevant German Guarantor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) recourse claim (Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) vis-à-vis the relevant shareholder or (ii) a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) or a profit and loss pooling agreement (Ergebnisabführungsvertrag) is or will be in existence with the relevant German Guarantor (or the relevant general partner) and the relevant German Guarantor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) compensation claim (Ausgleichsanspruch).

SECTION 7.12 Swiss Guarantors. If and to the extent that (i) the obligations under this ARTICLE VII of any Swiss Guarantor are for the exclusive benefit of any of such Swiss Guarantors Affiliates (other than such Swiss Guarantors direct or indirect Subsidiaries) and (ii) complying with the obligations under this ARTICLE VII would constitute a repayment of capital (restitution des apports) or the payment of a (constructive) dividend (distribution de dividende), the following shall apply:

(a) The aggregate obligations under this ARTICLE VII of any Swiss Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount of such Swiss Guarantors profits and reserves available for distribution, in each case in accordance with, without limitation, articles 671 para.1 to 3 and 675 para.2 of the Swiss Code of Obligations (the Available Amount) at the time any Swiss Guarantor makes a payment under this ARTICLE VII (provided such limitation is still a legal requirement under Swiss law at that time).

(b) Immediately after having been requested to make a payment under this ARTICLE VII (the Guarantee Payment), each Swiss Guarantor shall (i) provide the Administrative Agent, within thirty (30) Business Days from being requested to make the Guarantee Payment, with (1) an interim audited balance sheet prepared by the statutory auditors of the applicable Swiss Guarantor, (2) the determination of the Available Amount based on such interim audited balance sheet as computed by the statutory auditors, and (3) a confirmation from the statutory auditors that the Available Amount is the maximum amount which can be paid by the Swiss Guarantor under this ARTICLE VII without breaching the provisions of Swiss corporate law, which are aimed at protecting the share capital and legal reserves, and (ii) upon receipt of the confirmation referred to in the preceding sentence under (3) and after having taken all actions required pursuant to paragraph (d) below, make such Guarantee Payment in full (less, if required, any Swiss Withholding Tax).

(c) If so required under Swiss law (including double tax treaties to which Switzerland is a party) at the time it is required to make a payment under this ARTICLE VII or the Security Documents, the applicable Swiss Guarantor (1) may deduct the Swiss Withholding Tax at the rate of 35% (or such other rate as may be in force at such time) from any payment under this ARTICLE VII or the Security Documents, (2) may pay the Swiss Withholding Tax to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration, and (3) shall notify and provide evidence to the Administrative Agent that the Swiss Withholding Tax has been paid to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration. To the extent the Guarantee Payment due is less than the

209

Available Amount, the applicable Swiss Guarantor shall be required to make a gross-up, indemnify or otherwise hold harmless the Secured Parties for the deduction of the Swiss Withholding Tax, it being understood that at no time shall the Guarantee Payment (including any gross-up or indemnification payment pursuant to this paragraph (c) and including any Swiss Withholding Tax levied thereon) exceed the Available Amount. The applicable Swiss Guarantor shall use its best efforts to ensure that any person which is, as a result of a payment under this ARTICLE VII, entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax, shall as soon as possible after the deduction of the Swiss Withholding Tax (i) request a refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax under any Applicable Law (including double tax treaties) and (ii) pay to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Secured Parties upon receipt any amount so refunded. The Secured Obligations will only be considered as discharged to the extent of the effective payment received by the Secured Parties under this ARTICLE VII. This subsection (c) is without prejudice to the gross-up or indemnification obligations of any Guarantor other that the Swiss Guarantors.

(d) The Swiss Guarantors shall use reasonable efforts to take and cause to be taken all and any other action, including the passing of any shareholders resolutions to approve any Guarantee Payment under this ARTICLE VII or the Security Documents, which may be required as a matter of Swiss mandatory law or standard business practice as existing at the time it is required to make a Guarantee Payment under this ARTICLE VII or the Security Documents in order to allow for a prompt payment of the Guarantee Payment or Available Amount, as applicable.

(e) To the extent (i) the Swiss Borrower is jointly and severally liable towards the Lenders for obligations under this Agreement of the Swiss Borrowers Affiliates (other than the Swiss Borrowers direct or indirect Subsidiaries) which were incurred for the exclusive benefit of such Swiss Borrowers Affiliates and (ii) complying with such joint and several obligations would constitute a repayment of capital (restitution des apports) or the payment of a (constructive) dividend (distribution de dividende), then paragraphs (a) to (d) of this Section 7.12 shall be applicable to such obligations. For the avoidance of doubt this paragraph is without prejudice to the joint and several liability of any Loan Party (other than the Swiss Borrower) for any obligations arising under this Agreement.

SECTION 7.13 Irish Guarantor. This Guarantee does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this Guarantee constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of, in respect of any Irish Guarantor, Section 60 of the Companies Act 1963 of Ireland.

SECTION 7.14 Brazilian Guarantor. The Brazilian Guarantor waives and shall not exercise any and all rights and privileges granted to guarantors which might otherwise be deemed applicable, including but not limited to the rights and privileges referred to in Articles 827, 834, 835, 836, 837, 838 and 839 of the Brazilian Civil Code and the provisions of Article 595 of the Brazilian Civil Procedure Code.

SECTION 7.15 French Guarantor.

(a) The obligations and liabilities of a French Guarantor under the Loan Documents and in particular under Article VII (Guarantee) of this Agreement shall not

210

include any obligation or liability which if incurred would constitute the provision of financial assistance within the meaning of article L. 225-216 of the French Code de commerce and/or would constitute a misuse of corporate assets within the meaning of article L. 241-3 or L. 242-6 of the French Code de commerce or any other laws or regulations having the same effect, as interpreted by French courts.

(b) The obligations and liabilities of a French Guarantor under Article VII (Guarantee) of this Agreement for the obligations under the Loan Documents of any other Guarantor which is not a French Subsidiary of such French Guarantor, shall be limited at any time to an amount equal to the aggregate of all amounts borrowed under this Agreement by such other Guarantor as Borrower to the extent directly or indirectly on-lent to the French Guarantor under inter-company loan agreements and outstanding at the date a payment is to be made by such French Guarantor under Article VII (Guarantee) of this Agreement, it being specified that any payment made by a French Guarantor under Article VII (Guarantee) of the Credit Agreement in respect of the obligations of such Guarantor as Borrower shall reduce pro tanto the outstanding amount of the inter-company loans due by the French Guarantor under the inter-company loan arrangements referred to above.

(c) The obligations and liabilities of a French Guarantor under Article VII (Guarantee) of this Agreement for the obligations under the Loan Documents of any Guarantor which is its Subsidiary shall not be limited and shall therefore cover all amounts due by such Guarantor as Borrower and/or as Guarantor, as applicable. However, where such Subsidiary is not incorporated in France, the amounts payable by the French Guarantor under this paragraph (c) in respect of obligations of this Subsidiary as Borrower and/or Guarantor, shall be limited as set out in paragraph (b) above.

SECTION 7.16 Luxembourg Guarantor.

(a) If and to the extent that the obligations of the Luxembourg Guarantor under this Guarantee are for the exclusive benefit of the Luxembourg Guarantors direct and indirect parent entities and Affiliates (except the Luxembourg Guarantors (direct or indirect) Subsidiaries), the following shall apply:

(i) Notwithstanding any thing to the contrary, (A) the obligations and liabilities of the Luxembourg Guarantor under this Guarantee and (B) the obligations secured by the Collateral granted by such Luxembourg Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, shall at no time, in aggregate, exceed an amount equal to the maximum financial capacity of such Luxembourg Guarantor, such maximum financial capacity being limited to ninety-five per cent (95%) of the net Luxembourg Guarantor capitaux propres (as referred to in article 34 of the Luxembourg law of December 19, 2002, on the commercial register and annual accounts, where the capitaux propres mean the shareholders equity (including the share capital, share premium, legal and statutory reserves, other reserves, profit and losses carried forward, investment subsidies and regulated provisions) of such Luxembourg Guarantor as shown in the latest financial statements (comptes annuels) available at the date of the relevant payment hereunder and approved by the shareholders of such Luxembourg Guarantor and certified by the statutory auditor, as the case may be, or as applicable its external auditor (réviseur dentreprises), if required by law.

211

(ii) None of the above restrictions shall apply to the extent of: (A) the total payment obligations of such Luxembourg Guarantors Subsidiaries under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents; and (B) the payment obligations of any Loan Party where that Loan Party is not a subsidiary of the Luxembourg Guarantor, up to an amount equal to the amounts borrowed (directly or indirectly) by way of intra-group loans from such Loan Party by the Luxembourg Guarantor or such Luxembourg Guarantors Subsidiaries.

The obligations and liabilities of the Luxembourg Guarantor under this Guarantee shall not include any obligation which, if incurred, would constitute either (a) a misuse of corporate assets as defined under Article 171-1 of the Luxembourg Company Act of August 10, 1915, as amended from time to time, (the Luxembourg Company Act) or (b) financial assistance.

(b) The Luxembourg Guarantor shall use reasonable efforts to take and cause to be taken all and any other action, including if required the passing of any shareholders resolutions to approve any payment under this Guarantee or otherwise under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which may be required as a matter of Luxembourg law or standard business practice as existing at the time it is required to make a payment under this Guarantee or otherwise under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in order to allow for prompt payment of such payments under this Guarantee or otherwise under this Agreement and other Loan Documents, as applicable.

(p) a Termination Event (as defined therein) has occurred under a Receivables Purchase Agreement;

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to any Loan Party described in paragraph (g) or (h) above), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to Administrative Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments and (ii) declare the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other Obligations of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each of the Loan Parties, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding; and in any event, with respect to any Loan Party described in paragraph (g) or (h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other Obligations of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each of the Loan Parties, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

SECTION 8.02 Rescission. If at any time after termination of the Commitments or acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, the Loan Parties shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owing by them

215

that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified herein) and all Defaults (other than non-payment of principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant Section 11.02, then upon the written consent of the Required Lenders and written notice to the Administrative Borrower, the termination of the Commitments or the acceleration and their consequences may be rescinded and annulled; but such action shall not affect any subsequent Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders and the Issuing Banks to a decision that may be made at the election of the Required Lenders, and such provisions are not intended to benefit any Loan Party and do not give any Loan Party the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

SECTION 8.03 Application of Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but subject to Section 2.14(f) and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement), during an Event of Default, monies to be applied to the Secured Obligations, whether arising from payments by Loan Parties, realization on Collateral, setoff or otherwise, shall be allocated as follows (including any payments received with respect to adequate protection payments or other distributions relating to the Secured Obligations during the pendency of any reorganization or insolvency proceeding):

(a) First, to all costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses, owing to any Agent or Receiver;

(b) Second, to all amounts owing to a Swingline Lender on Swingline Loans;

(d) Fourth, to all Secured Obligations constituting fees (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations);

(e) Fifth, to all Secured Obligations constituting interest (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations);

(f) Sixth, to cash collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount equal to 105% of LC Exposure;

(g) Seventh, to all Loans; and

(h) Eighth, to all other Secured Obligations.

Amounts shall be applied to each category of Secured Obligations set forth above until Full Payment thereof and then to the next category. If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the Secured Obligations in the category. Amounts distributed with respect to any Secured Bank Product Obligations shall be the lesser of the maximum Secured Bank Product Obligations last reported to Administrative Agent or the actual Secured Bank Product Obligations as calculated by the methodology reported to Administrative Agent for determining the amount due. No Agent shall have any obligation to

216

calculate the amount to be distributed with respect to any Secured Bank Product Obligations, and Administrative Agent may request a reasonably detailed calculation of such amount from the applicable Secured Party. If a Secured Party fails to deliver such calculation within five days following request by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume the amount to be distributed is zero. The allocations set forth in this Section are solely to determine the rights and priorities of Administrative Agent and Secured Parties as among themselves, and may be changed by agreement among them without the consent of any Loan Party. This Section is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Loan Party.

ARTICLE IX

COLLATERAL ACCOUNT; COLLATERAL MONITORING; APPLICATION OF COLLATERAL PROCEEDS

Each Loan Party covenants and agrees with each Lender that so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect and until Full Payment of the Obligations, unless Administrative Agent, or the Required Lenders, shall otherwise consent in writing:

SECTION 9.01 Accounts; Cash Management.

The Loan Parties in the United States, Canada, England and Wales, Switzerland, and Germany (and any other jurisdiction in which a Borrower, Borrowing Base Guarantor or Receivables Seller is located) (the Borrowing Base Loan Parties) shall maintain a cash management system which is acceptable to the Administrative Agent (the Cash Management System), which shall operate as follows:

(a) All funds held by any Borrowing Base Loan Party (other than funds being collected pursuant to the provisions stated below) shall be deposited in one or more bank accounts or securities investment accounts, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent subject to the terms of the Security Agreement and applicable Control Agreements.

(b) Each Borrowing Base Loan Party shall establish and maintain, at its sole expense, blocked accounts, charged accounts, or lockboxes and related deposit accounts (in each case, Blocked Accounts), which, on the Closing Date, shall consist of the accounts listed as such on Schedule 9.01(b) and related lockboxes maintained by the financial institutions listed on such schedule (or another financial institution acceptable to Administrative Agent), with such banks as are acceptable to Administrative Agent into which each Loan Party shall promptly deposit and direct their respective Account Debtors to directly remit all payments on Accounts and all payments constituting proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral (other than proceeds of a Casualty Event or an Asset Sale that do not require a repayment under Loan Documents, and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement) in the identical form in which such payments are made, whether by cash, check or other manner and shall be identified and segregated from all other funds of the Loan Parties (except, with regard to accounts located in Europe, to the extent permitted pursuant to the applicable U.K. Security Agreement, Swiss Security Agreement, or German Security Agreement, or Control Agreements, or with respect to accounts located in any other European country, the applicable

217

Control Agreement or other Security Documents applicable thereto). Each Borrowing Base Loan Party shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Collateral Agent a Control Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by each bank where a Blocked Account for the benefit of any Borrowing Base Loan Party is maintained, and, except as provided in Section 9.01(d), by each bank where any other deposit account of a Borrowing Base Loan Party is from time to time maintained. Each Borrowing Base Loan Party shall further execute and deliver such agreements and documents as Administrative Agent may reasonably require in connection with such Blocked Accounts and such Control Agreements. No Borrowing Base Loan Party shall establish any deposit accounts after the Closing Date, unless such Loan Party has given the Administrative Agent 30 days (or such shorter period as may be determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) prior written notice of its intention to establish such new account and has complied in full with the provisions of this Section 9.01(b) with respect to such deposit accounts. Each Borrowing Base Loan Party agrees that from and after the delivery of an Activation Notice (as defined below), all payments made to such Blocked Accounts or other funds received and collected by any Secured Party, whether in respect of the Accounts, as proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement) or otherwise shall be treated as payments to the Secured Parties in respect of the Secured Obligations and therefore shall constitute the property of the Secured Parties to the extent of the then outstanding Secured Obligations and may be applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.01(e).

(c) With respect to the Blocked Accounts of the U.S. Borrowers and such other Borrowing Base Loan Parties as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion, the applicable bank maintaining such Blocked Accounts shall agree to forward daily all amounts in each Blocked Account to one Blocked Account designated as a concentration account in the name listed on Schedule 9.01(b) (the Concentration Account) at a bank acceptable to the Administrative Agent that shall be designated as the Concentration Account bank for the Loan Parties (the Concentration Account Bank), which, on the Closing Date, shall consist of the accounts listed as such on Schedule 9.01(b) maintained by the financial institutions listed on such schedule (or other financial institution acceptable to the Administrative Agent). Each Bank providing a Blocked Account shall agree to follow the instructions of the Collateral Agent with regard to each such Blocked Account, including the Concentration Account, including, from and after the receipt of a notice (an Activation Notice) from the Collateral Agent (which Activation Notice may (or shall, upon the written instruction of the Required Lenders) be given by Collateral Agent at any time from and after the occurrence of a Cash Dominion Trigger Event and prior to a Cash Dominion Recovery Event) pursuant to the applicable Control Agreement, to follow only the instructions of the Collateral Agent (and not those of any Loan Party) with respect to the Blocked Accounts (including the Concentration Account), including (i) to forward daily all amounts in the Concentration Account to the account designated as the collection account (the Collection Account), which shall be under the exclusive dominion and control of the Collateral Agent (it being understood that, prior to the delivery of an Activation Notice, the respective Loan Parties shall also be authorized to issue instructions with regard to funds in the Concentration Account), and (ii) with respect to the Blocked Accounts to forward all amounts in each Blocked Account to the applicable Collection Account or as the Collateral Agent otherwise directs and to commence the process of daily sweeps from such Blocked Account into the

218

Collection Account or otherwise under Section 9.01 or as the Collateral Agent otherwise directs.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 9.01 to the contrary, (A) Borrowing Base Loan Parties may maintain zero balance disbursement accounts and accounts used solely to fund payroll, payroll taxes or employee benefits in the ordinary course of business that are not a part of the Cash Management Systems, provided that no Borrowing Base Loan Parties shall accumulate or maintain cash in such accounts as of any date of determination in excess of checks outstanding against such accounts as of that date and amounts necessary to meet minimum balance requirements or Applicable Law and (B) Borrowing Base Loan Parties may maintain local cash accounts that are not a part of the Cash Management Systems which individually do not at any time contain funds in excess of $100,000 and, together with all other such local cash accounts, do not exceed $2,000,000.

(e) From and after the delivery of an Activation Notice, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (in which event Section 8.03 shall apply) and unless Administrative Agent determines to release such funds to the Borrowers in accordance with the following sentence, Administrative Agent shall apply all funds of a Borrower or Borrowing Base Guarantor organized under the laws of the same jurisdiction of such Borrower that are in or are received into a Collection Account or that are otherwise received under this Section 9.01 by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (except to the extent constituting Pari Passu Priority Collateral or otherwise not required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10) on a daily basis to the repayment of (i) first, Fees and reimbursable expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent then due and payable by such Borrower and such Borrowing Base Guarantors; (ii) second, to interest then due and payable on all Loans to such Borrower, (iii) third, Overadvances to such Borrower, (iv) fourth, the Swingline Loans to such Borrower, (v) fifth, Base Rate Loans to such Borrower, pro rata, (vi) sixth, Eurocurrency Loans and EURIBOR Loans to such Borrower, pro rata, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided, however, that payments on such Eurocurrency Loans and EURIBOR Loans with respect to which the application of such payment would result in the payment of the principal prior to the last day of the relevant Interest Period shall be transferred to the Cash Collateral Account to be applied to such Eurocurrency Loans or EURIBOR Loans on the last day of the relevant Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Loan or EURIBOR Loan or to the Obligations owing by such Borrower and Borrowing Base Guarantors as they come due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise). After payment in full has been made of the amounts required under subsections (i)-(vi) in the preceding sentence, all funds in a Collection Account or otherwise received under this Section 9.01 (except to the extent not required to be paid hereunder) shall be applied on a daily basis to all amounts described in subsections (i)-(vi) in the preceding sentence owing by any other Loan Parties, in the order set out therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentences, after payment in full has been made of the amounts required under subsections (i)-(vi) in the two preceding sentences, upon Administrative Borrowers request and as long as no Default has occurred and is continuing and all other conditions precedent to a Borrowing have been satisfied, any additional funds deposited in a Collection Account or a Cash Collateral Account shall be released to the applicable Borrowing Base Loan Party. In addition, if consented to by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, such funds in a Cash Collateral Account may be released to the applicable Borrowing Base Loan Party. Notwithstanding the above, if

219

the Administrative Agent has declared the Loans and/or Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part pursuant to Section 8.01 or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall apply all funds received in the Collection Account in accordance with Section 8.03. If this Section 9.01(e) applies, the Administrative Agent will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Administrative Borrower in structuring the payments under this Section 9.01(e) in a manner that would minimize withholding taxes imposed on such payments.

(f) Each Loan Party following delivery of an Activation Notice shall, acting as trustee for Collateral Agent, receive, as the property of Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, any monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts, Inventory or other Collateral (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement) which come into their possession or under their control and immediately upon receipt thereof, shall deposit or cause the same to be deposited in the Blocked Accounts, or remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to Collateral Agent. In no event shall the same be commingled with any Loan Partys own funds (except, with regard to accounts located in Europe, to the extent permitted pursuant to the applicable U.K. Security Agreement, Swiss Security Agreement, or German Security Agreement, or Control Agreements, or with respect to accounts located in any other European country, the applicable Control Agreement or other Security Documents applicable thereto). Each Loan Party agrees to reimburse Collateral Agent on demand for any amounts owed or paid to any bank at which a Blocked Account is established or any other bank or person involved in the transfer of funds to or from the Blocked Accounts arising out of Collateral Agents payments to or indemnification of such bank or person.

(g) With regard to accounts located in Europe, the Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion, agree pursuant to the Security Documents to vary the cash management procedures set forth herein, including as documented in the applicable U.K. Security Agreement, Swiss Security Agreement, or German Security Agreement, or Control Agreements, or with respect to accounts located in any other European country, the applicable Control Agreement or other Security Documents applicable thereto) and including, subject to Section 6.07, with regard to the Cash Pooling Arrangements. To the extent that any Security Document sets forth cash management that varies from this Section 9.01, the applicable Loan Parties shall comply with such Security Documents, and shall comply with this Section 9.01 to the extent not inconsistent therewith.

SECTION 9.02 Administration of Inventory and Accounts.

(a) Records and Reports of Inventory. Each Borrower and Borrowing Base Guarantor shall keep accurate and complete records of its Inventory, including costs and daily withdrawals and additions thereto, and shall submit to Administrative Agent inventory and reconciliation reports in form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, upon Administrative Agents reasonable request. Each Loan Party shall conduct a physical inventory at least once per calendar year (and on a more frequent basis if requested by Administrative Agent during the continuation of an Event of Default) and periodic cycle counts consistent with historical practices, and shall provide to Administrative Agent a report based on each such inventory and count promptly upon completion thereof, together with

220

such supporting information as Administrative Agent may reasonably request. Administrative Agent may participate in and observe each physical count.

(b) Returns of Inventory. No Borrower or Borrowing Base Guarantor shall return any Inventory to a supplier, vendor or other Person, whether for cash, credit or otherwise, unless (i) such return is in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices and undertaken in good faith; (ii) no Default, Event of Default or Overadvance exists or would result therefrom; (iii) Administrative Agent is promptly notified if the aggregate value of all Inventory returned in any month exceeds $10,000,000; and (iv) during the existence of any Event of Default or at any time after the occurrence of a Cash Dominion Trigger Event and prior to the subsequent occurrence of a Cash Dominion Recovery Event, any payment received by a Loan Party for a return is promptly remitted to Administrative Agent for application to the Secured Obligations.

(c) Acquisition, Sale and Maintenance of Inventory. The Loan Parties shall use, store and maintain all Inventory with reasonable care and caution, in accordance with applicable standards of any insurance and in conformity with all Applicable Law, and shall make current rent payments (within applicable grace periods provided for in leases) at all locations where any Collateral is located.

(d) Records and Schedules of Accounts. Each Loan Party shall keep accurate and complete records of its Accounts in all material respects, including all payments and collections thereon, and shall submit to Administrative Agent sales, collection, reconciliation and other reports in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent, on such periodic basis as Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

(e) Taxes. If an Account of any Borrower or Borrowing Base Guarantor includes a charge for any Taxes, Administrative Agent is authorized, in its discretion, upon notice to the Administrative Borrower, to pay the amount thereof to the proper Taxing Authority for the account of such Borrower or Borrowing Base Guarantor and to charge Borrowers therefor; provided, however, that neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be liable for any Taxes that may be due from any Loan Party or with respect to any Collateral.

(f) Account Verification. During a Default or Event of Default, at any time after the occurrence of a Cash Dominion Trigger Event and prior to the subsequent occurrence of a Cash Dominion Recovery Event and in connection with its field examinations, Administrative Agent shall have the right, in the name of Administrative Agent, any designee of Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts of any Borrower or Borrowing Base Guarantor (including Accounts purchased pursuant to a Receivables Purchase Agreement) by mail, telephone or otherwise; provided that, in the absence of an Event of Default such verification shall be limited to telephone calls made by a representative of a Loan Party, upon reasonable prior notice from Administrative Agent, in the presence of a representative of Administrative Agent to an applicable Account Debtor or a Person otherwise obligated on such Accounts, as the case may be. Loan Parties shall cooperate fully with Administrative Agent in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude any such verification process.

221

SECTION 9.03 Borrowing Base-Related Reports. The Borrowers shall deliver or cause to be delivered (at the expense of the Borrowers) to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent the following (and the Administrative Agent shall make available to the Lenders, on the Platform or otherwise, in accordance with its customary procedures):

(a) in no event less frequently than fifteen (15) days after the end of each month for the month most recently ended (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), a Borrowing Base Certificate from the Administrative Borrower accompanied by such supporting detail and documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion; provided that, if during the first month of any fiscal quarter the Total Revolving Exposure (excluding LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit outstanding as of the Closing Date) does not at any time exceed 25% of the aggregate amount of the Lenders Revolving Commitments and no Default is then continuing, the Administrative Borrower shall not be required to deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate with regard to such month; provided further, that after the occurrence of a Covenant Trigger Event and until the occurrence of a corresponding Covenant Recovery Event, Administrative Borrower shall deliver an additional weekly roll-forward of Accounts as referenced in paragraph (b)(i) below (both consolidated and segregated by Borrower (or Borrowing Base Guarantor) and region) within five (5) Business Days after the end of each calendar week, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting such updated Account information (prepared weekly) within five (5) Business Days after the end of each calendar week, or, when a Default is continuing, more frequent Borrowing Base Certificates reflecting shorter periods as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders. Each Borrowing Base Certificate shall reflect all information through the end of the appropriate period for Borrower and each Borrowing Base Guarantor, both in consolidated form and segregated by Borrower (or Borrowing Base Guarantor) and region. In addition, the Administrative Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) provide to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent an updated Borrowing Base Certificate after the occurrence of an event not in the ordinary course of business (including a casualty event, a sale or other disposition, or any other event resulting in the ineligibility of Accounts or Inventory that are included as Eligible Accounts or Eligible Inventory in the most recently delivered Borrowing Base Certificate) which causes such Accounts or Inventory in excess of $20,000,000 included in the Total Borrowing Base no longer to be Eligible Accounts or Eligible Inventory.

(b) upon request by the Administrative Agent, and in no event less frequently than thirty (30) days after the end of (i) each month, a monthly trial balance showing Accounts outstanding aged from statement date as follows: 1 to 30 days, 31 to 60 days, 61 to 90 days and 91 days or more, accompanied by a comparison to the prior months trial balance and such supporting detail and documentation as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion and (ii) each month, a summary of Inventory by location and type (differentiating raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods) accompanied by such supporting detail and documentation as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion; provided that, if during the first month of any fiscal quarter the Total Revolving Exposure (excluding LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit outstanding as of the Closing Date) does not at any time exceed 25% of the aggregate amount of the Lenders Revolving Commitments and no Default is then continuing, the Administrative

222

Borrower shall not be required to deliver such monthly trial balance or summary of Inventory with regard to such month;

(c) on or before March 31, 2011, updated field examinations and inventory appraisals, and in furtherance thereof, the Borrowers will cause such field examinations and inventory appraisals to be commenced on or before February 15, 2011; provided that if on any day prior to February 15, 2011, outstanding Loans and LC Exposure exceed $100,000,000 in the aggregate (excluding LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit outstanding as of the Closing Date), the Borrowers will cause field examinations and inventory appraisals to be commenced within ten (10) days thereafter; and

(d) such other reports, statements and reconciliations with respect to the Borrowing Base or Collateral of any or all Loan Parties as the Administrative Agent shall from time to time request in its Permitted Discretion.

The delivery of each certificate and report or any other information delivered pursuant to this Section 9.03 shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrowers that the statements and information contained therein are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date referred to therein.

SECTION 9.04 Rescission of Activation Notice. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 9.01 to the contrary, after Collateral Agent has delivered an Activation Notice and upon delivery of a certificate by a Financial Officer of the Administrative Borrower to the Administrative Agent certifying that a Cash Dominion Recovery Event has occurred with respect to the outstanding Cash Dominion Trigger Event, the Collateral Agent shall rescind the Activation Notice by written notice, as necessary, to the applicable Concentration Account Banks and any such other banks to which Collateral Agent had issued such Activation Notice and following such rescission the Cash Management System shall be operated as if no such Activation Notice had been given.

ARTICLE X

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT

SECTION 10.01 Appointment, Authority and Duties of Agents.

(a) Appointment and Authority. Each Secured Party appoints and designates Bank of America as Administrative Agent and as Collateral Agent under all Loan Documents. Each Agent may, and each Secured Party authorizes each Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which such Agent is intended to be a party and accept all Security Documents, for the benefit of Secured Parties. Each Secured Party agrees that any action taken by any Agent or Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and the exercise by any Agent or Required Lenders of any rights or remedies set forth therein, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon all Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) in the case of the Administrative Agent, act as the disbursing and collecting agent for

223

Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents; (b) execute and deliver as Administrative Agent or as Collateral Agent, respectively, each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document from any Loan Party or other Person; (c) in the case of the Collateral Agent, act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for all other purposes stated therein; (d) in the case of the Collateral Agent, manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; (e) in the case of the Collateral Agent, take any Enforcement Action with respect to the Collateral or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral under the Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise; and (f) take any other Enforcement Action. The duties of each Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and no Agent shall have a fiduciary relationship with any Secured Party, Participant or other Person, by reason of any Loan Document or any transaction relating thereto. Administrative Agent alone shall be authorized to determine whether any Accounts or Inventory constitute Eligible Accounts or Eligible Inventory, or whether to impose or release any reserve, and to exercise its Permitted Discretion in connection therewith, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate Administrative Agent from liability to any Lender or other Person for any error in judgment.

(b) Duties. No Agent shall have any duties except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. The conferral upon any Agent of any right shall not imply a duty on such Agents part to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so (i) in the case of the Administrative Agent, by Required Lenders in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) in the case of the Collateral Agent, by Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

(c) Agent Professionals. Each Agent may perform its duties through agents and employees. Each Agent may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, employees or Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care.

(d) Instructions of Required Lenders. The rights and remedies conferred upon each Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law. Each Agent may request instructions from Required Lenders or other Secured Parties with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from Secured Parties of their indemnification obligations against all Claims that could be incurred by such Agent in connection with any act. Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and no Agent shall incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Instructions of Required Lenders shall be binding upon all Secured Parties, and no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or refraining from acting in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of Secured Parties shall be required in the circumstances described in Section 11.02. In no event shall any Agent be required to take any action that, in

224

its opinion, is contrary to Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to personal liability.

SECTION 10.02 Agreements Regarding Collateral and Field Examination Reports.

(a) Lien Releases; Care of Collateral. Secured Parties authorize Collateral Agent to release any Lien with respect to any Collateral (a) upon Full Payment of the Secured Obligations; (b) that is the subject of a sale, lease, license, consignment, transfer or other disposition which Administrative Borrower certifies in writing to Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent is permitted by Section 6.06 (provided that no Lien shall be released in any Series of Cash Neutral Transactions or in any Asset Sale to another Loan Party) (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry); (c) that does not constitute a material part of the Collateral; (d) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee pursuant to Section 7.09; or (e) with the written consent of the Required Lenders or such other number of Lenders whose consent is required under Section 11.02. Secured Parties authorize Collateral Agent to subordinate or release its Liens to any a Lien permitted hereunder that secures a Purchase Money Obligation or Capital Lease Obligation permitted hereunder. No Agent shall have any obligation to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by a Loan Party, or is cared for, protected or insured, nor to assure that Collateral Agents Liens have been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any Collateral.

(b) Possession of Collateral. Each Agent and Secured Party appoints each Lender as agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in any Collateral held or controlled by such Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control. If any Lender obtains possession or control of any Collateral, it shall notify Collateral Agent thereof and, promptly upon Collateral Agents request, deliver such Collateral to Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with it in accordance with Collateral Agents instructions.

(c) Reports. Each Agent shall promptly forward to each Lender, when complete, copies of any field audit, examination or appraisal report prepared by or for such Agent with respect to any Loan Party or Collateral (each, a Report). Each Lender agrees (a) that neither Bank of America nor any Agent makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Report, and neither Bank of America nor any Agent shall be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Report; (b) that the Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Agent or any other Person performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Secured Obligations or the Collateral and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties books and records as well as upon representations of the Loan Parties officers and employees; and (c) to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for such Lenders internal use, and not to distribute any Report (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except to such Lenders Participants, attorneys and accountants) or use any Report in any manner other than administration of the Loans and other Secured Obligations. Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Report, as well as

225

from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of any Agent furnishing a Report to such Lender.

(d) Dealings with Collateral Agent. Each Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and their respective co-agents and sub-agents) shall deal with the Collateral Agent exclusively through the Administrative Agent and shall not deal directly with the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to act and rely upon the instructions of the Administrative Agent with regard to all matters relating to the Loan Documents and the Collateral.

SECTION 10.03 Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and upon the advice and statements of Agent Professionals.

SECTION 10.04 Action Upon Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless it has received written notice from a Lender or Loan Party specifying the occurrence and nature thereof. If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing. Each Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent) agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of Administrative Agent and Required Lenders, it will not (i) take any Enforcement Action, (ii) accelerate Secured Obligations (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations) or (iii) exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral or to assert any rights relating to any Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Secured Party may take action to preserve or enforce its rights against a Loan Party where a deadline or limitation period is applicable that would, absent such action, bar enforcement of Secured Obligations held by such Secured Party, including the filing of proofs of claim in an Insolvency Proceeding. No Lender shall set off against any account that is subject to a Control Agreement without the prior consent of Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.05 Indemnification of Agent Indemnitees. EACH LENDER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS AGENT INDEMNITEES AND ISSUING BANK INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY LOAN PARTIES, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS PRO RATA PERCENTAGE, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY AGENT INDEMNITEE OR ISSUING BANK INDEMNITEE, PROVIDED THAT ANY CLAIM AGAINST AN AGENT INDEMNITEE RELATES TO OR ARISES FROM ITS ACTING AS OR FOR AN AGENT (IN THE CAPACITY AS AN AGENT). In Administrative Agents discretion, it may reserve for any Claims made against an Agent Indemnitee or Issuing Bank Indemnitee, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement relating thereto, from proceeds of Collateral prior to any Agent making any distribution of Collateral proceeds to Secured Parties. If any Agent is sued by any receiver, bankruptcy trustee, debtor-in-possession or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer, then any monies paid by such Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such proceeding, together with all interest, costs and

226

expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to such Agent by each Lender to the extent of its Pro Rata Percentage.

SECTION 10.06 Limitation on Responsibilities of Agents. No Agent shall be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Loan Documents, except for losses directly and solely caused by such Agents gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent assumes any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Loan Party, Lender or other Secured Party of any obligations under the Loan Documents. No Agent makes to Secured Parties any express or implied warranty, representation or guarantee with respect to any Secured Obligations, Collateral, Loan Documents or Loan Party. No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Loan Documents; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Documents; the genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectibility of any Secured Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Loan Party or Account Debtor. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by any Loan Party of any terms of the Loan Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Loan Documents. Neither Administrative Agent nor Collateral Agent shall be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Secured Party or other Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by any Secured Party, such Secured Party hereby agrees to return it).

SECTION 10.07 Successor Agents and Co-Agents.

(a) Resignation; Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, any Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days written notice thereof to the other Agent, Lenders and Administrative Borrower. Upon receipt of such notice, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent which shall be (a) a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; or (b) a commercial bank that is organized under the laws of the United States or any state or district thereof, has a combined capital surplus of at least $200,000,000 and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) is reasonably acceptable to Administrative Borrower. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of an Agent, then such Agent may appoint a successor agent from among Lenders or, if no Lender accepts such role, such Agent may appoint Required Lenders as successor agent. Upon acceptance by a successor Agent of an appointment to serve as an Agent hereunder, or upon appointment of Required Lenders as successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Agent without further act, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder in its capacity as such Agent, but shall continue to have the benefits of the indemnification set forth in Sections 10.05 and 11.03. Notwithstanding any Agents resignation, the provisions of this Section 10.07 shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while

227

Agent. Any successor to Bank of America by merger or acquisition of stock or this loan shall continue to be Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder without further act on the part of the parties hereto, unless such successor resigns as provided above.

(b) Co-Collateral Agent. It is the intent of the parties that there shall be no violation of any Applicable Law denying or restricting the right of financial institutions to transact business in any jurisdiction. If Collateral Agent believes that it may be limited in the exercise of any rights or remedies under the Loan Documents due to any Applicable Law, or for any other reason in its sole discretion, Collateral Agent (or the Lenders) may appoint an additional Person as a co-collateral agent. If Collateral Agent (or the Lenders) so appoints a co-collateral agent, each right and remedy intended to be available to Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents shall also be vested in such separate agent. Every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such agent shall run to and be enforceable by it as well as Collateral Agent. Secured Parties shall execute and deliver such documents as Collateral Agent deems appropriate to vest any rights or remedies in such agent. If any co-collateral agent shall die or dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by Collateral Agent until appointment of a new agent. For the avoidance of doubt, French Collateral Agent shall be a co-collateral agent hereunder.

SECTION 10.08 Due Diligence and Non-Reliance. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Loan Party and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to fund Loans and participate in LC Obligations hereunder. Each Secured Party has made such inquiries as it feels necessary concerning the Loan Documents, Collateral and Loan Parties. Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Secured Parties have made no representations or warranties concerning any Loan Party, any Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Loan Documents or Obligations. Each Secured Party will, independently and without reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Loans and participating in LC Obligations, and in taking or refraining from any action under any Loan Documents. Except for notices, reports and other information expressly requested by a Lender, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to such Agent by any Loan Party or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or properties of any Loan Party (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of any Agent or its Affiliates.

SECTION 10.09 Remittance of Payments and Collections.

(a) Remittances Generally. All payments by any Lender to any Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by an Agent and request for payment is made by such Agent by 11:00 a.m., New York time, on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00 p.m., New York time, on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m., New York time, then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m.,

228

New York time, on the next Business Day. Payment by any Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by such Agent. Any such payment shall be subject to such Agents right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Loan Documents.

(b) Failure to Pay. If any Secured Party fails to pay any amount when due by it to any Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due date until paid at the rate determined by such Agent as customary in the banking industry for interbank compensation. In no event shall Borrowers be entitled to receive credit for any interest paid by a Secured Party to any Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by any Agent pursuant to Section 2.14(f).

(c) Recovery of Payments. If any Agent pays any amount to a Secured Party in the expectation that a related payment will be received by such Agent from any Loan Party and such related payment is not received, then such Agent may recover such amount from each Secured Party that received it. If any Agent determines at any time that an amount received under any Loan Document must be returned to any Loan Party or paid to any other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term of any Loan Document, such Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Lender. If any amounts received and applied by any Agent to any Secured Obligations are later required to be returned by such Agent pursuant to Applicable Law, each Lender shall pay to such Agent, on demand, such Lenders share (in accordance with its Pro Rata Percentage, where applicable) of the amounts required to be returned.

SECTION 10.10 Agent in its Individual Capacity. As a Lender, Bank of America shall have the same rights and remedies under the other Loan Documents as any other Lender, and the terms Lenders, Required Lenders or any similar term shall include Bank of America in its capacity as a Lender. Each of Bank of America and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Loan Parties and their Affiliates, as if Bank of America were any other bank, without any duty to account therefor (including any fees or other consideration received in connection therewith) to the other Lenders. In their individual capacity, Bank of America and its Affiliates may receive information regarding Loan Parties, their Affiliates and their Account Debtors (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and each Secured Party agrees that Bank of America and its Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such information to any Secured Party, if acquired in such individual capacity and not as an Agent hereunder.

SECTION 10.11 Agent Titles. Each Lender, other than Bank of America, that is designated (on the cover page of this Agreement or otherwise) by Bank of America as an Agent or Arranger of any type shall not have any right, power, responsibility or duty under any Loan Documents other than those applicable to all Lenders, and shall in no event be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender.

SECTION 10.12 Bank Product Providers. Each Secured Bank Product Provider, by delivery of a notice to Administrative Agent of a Bank Product, agrees to be bound by Section

229

8.03, ARTICLES VII, X and XI, and the Intercreditor Agreement. Each Secured Bank Product Provider shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent Indemnitees, to the extent not reimbursed by Loan Parties, against all Claims that may be incurred by or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee in connection with such providers Secured Bank Product Obligations.

SECTION 10.13 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This ARTICLE X is an agreement solely among Secured Parties and Agents, and shall survive Full Payment of the Secured Obligations. This ARTICLE X does not confer any rights or benefits upon the Loan Parties or any other Person. As between the Loan Parties and Agents, any action that any Agent may take under any Loan Documents or with respect to any Secured Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by Secured Parties.

SECTION 10.14 Release. Each Lender and each Issuer hereby releases each Agent acting on its behalf pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document from the restrictions of Section 181 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) (restriction on self-dealing).

SECTION 10.15 Acknowledgment of Security Trust Deed. Each Secured Party acknowledges the terms of the Security Trust Deed and, in particular, the terms, basis and limitation on which the Collateral Agent holds the Transaction Security (as defined therein) and specifically agrees and accepts (i) such terms, basis and limitation; (ii) that the Collateral Agent shall, as trustee, have only those duties, obligations and responsibilities expressly specified in the Security Trust Deed; (iii) the limitation and exclusion of the Collateral Agents liability as set out therein; and (iv) all other provisions of the Security Trust Deed as if it were a party thereto.

To the extent consented to by the Administrative Agent from time to time, Administrative Agent agrees that receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address(es) set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents; provided that Administrative Borrower shall also deliver to the Administrative Agent an executed original of each Compliance Certificate and an executed copy (which may be by pdf or similar electronic transmission) of each notice or request of the type described in clauses (i) through (iv) of paragraph (d) above required to be delivered hereunder.

Each Loan Party further agrees that Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the Platform). THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED AS IS AND AS AVAILABLE. THE AGENTS DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall any Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to the Loan Parties, any Lender or any other person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Loan Partys or any Agents transmission of communications through the Internet, except to the extent the liability of such person is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such persons gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 11.02 Waivers; Amendment.

234

(a) Generally. No failure or delay by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of each Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by this Section 11.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Required Consents. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and to Section 11.02(c) through (h), no modification of any Loan Document, including any extension or amendment of a Loan Document or any waiver of a Default or Event of Default, shall be effective without the prior written agreement of Administrative Agent (or Collateral Agent, in the case of any Security Document) with the consent of Required Lenders, and each Loan Party party to such Loan Document; provided, however, that

(i) no modification shall be effective with respect to any provision in a Loan Document that relates to any rights, duties or discretion of any Agent, without the prior written consent of such Agent;

(ii) without the prior written consent of such Issuing Bank, no modification shall be effective with respect to any LC Obligations, Section 2.18 or any other provision in a Loan Document that relates to any rights, duties or discretion of an Issuing Bank;

(iii) without the prior written consent of each affected Lender, no modification shall be effective that would (i) increase the Commitment of such Lender; (ii) reduce the amount of, or waive or delay payment of, any principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender; or (iii) extend the Maturity Date;

(iv) without the prior written consent of all Lenders (except a Defaulting Lender as provided in Section 2.14(f)), no modification shall be effective that would (i) alter Section 8.03 or 11.02; (ii) except as provided in Section 11.02(h), amend the definition of Borrowing Base (or any defined term used in such definition), Pro Rata Percentage or Required Lenders; (iii) increase any advance rate; (iv) release all or substantially all of the Collateral, except as currently contemplated by the Loan Documents; or (v) except as expressly permitted by the Loan Documents, release any Obligor from liability for any Obligations, if such Obligor is Solvent at the time of the release;

235

(v) without the prior written consent of a Secured Bank Product Provider, no modification shall be effective that affects its relative payment priority under Section 8.03; and

(vi) without the written consent of each relevant Swingline Lender, no modification shall be effective that would change or waive any provision hereof relating to Swingline Loans (including the definition of European Swingline Commitment)

provided further, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Agent is hereby authorized by each Lender to enter into any amendment to or modification of the Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents in connection with the issuance or incurrence of Pari Passu Secured Obligations or Subordinated Lien Secured Obligations, solely to the extent necessary to effect such amendments as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of such Agent, in connection with any such issuance or incurrence expressly permitted hereunder, so long as such amendment or modification does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender (it being understood that allowing Pari Passu Secured Obligations and Subordinated Lien Secured Obligations to be secured by Collateral on the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement will not be deemed to adversely affect the rights of any Lender).

(c) Collateral. Without the consent of any other person, the applicable Loan Party or Parties and the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent may (in its or their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with Applicable Law.

(d) Dissenting Lenders. If a Lender fails to give its consent to any amendment, waiver or action for which consent of all Lenders was required and Required Lenders have consented, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies that any Person may have, Administrative Agent may, by notice to such Lender within 120 days after such event, require such Lender to assign all of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to Eligible Assignee(s) specified by Administrative Agent, pursuant to appropriate Assignment and Assumption(s) and within 20 days after Administrative Agents notice. Administrative Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such Assignment and Assumption if the Lender fails to execute same. Such Lender shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the Loan Documents, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of assignment (including any amount payable pursuant to Section 2.13).

(e) Holdings Amalgamation and Increased Commitments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (without the consent of any Lenders) may amend or amend and restate this Agreement and the other Loan Documents if necessary or advisable in connection with or to effectuate (i) the Permitted Holdings Amalgamation and (ii) any increase in Commitments contemplated by Section 2.23.

236

(f) Limitations. The agreement of any Loan Party shall not be necessary to the effectiveness of any modification of a Loan Document that deals solely with the rights and duties of any Lender, any Agent and/or any Issuing Bank as among themselves. Only the consent of the parties to the Fee Letter or any agreement relating to a Bank Product shall be required for any modification of such agreement, and any non-Lender that is party to a Bank Product agreement shall have no right to participate in any manner in modification of any other Loan Document. Any waiver or consent granted by Agents or Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing and only for the matter specified.

(g) Loan Modification Offers.

(i) The Administrative Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, make one or more offers (a Loan Modification Offer) to all Lenders to make no more than one Permitted Amendment (as defined below) pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the applicable Borrowers. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 30 Business Days after the date of such notice) (or such shorter periods as are acceptable to the Administrative Agent). Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans of Lenders that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the Accepting Lenders).

(ii) The Borrowers, each Accepting Lender, each Issuing Lender and each Swingline Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a loan modification agreement in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent (a Loan Modification Agreement) and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the Permitted Amendment and the terms and conditions thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender, each Issuing Lender and each Swingline Lender as to the effectiveness of such Loan Modification Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of the Loan Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Accepting Lenders (such Commitments, the Extended Commitments). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Permitted Amendment shall not become effective under this Section 11.02 unless the Administrative Agent, to the extent so reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, shall have received corporate documents, officers certificates or legal opinions consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.01.

(iii) Permitted Amendment shall mean (A) an extension of the final maturity date of the applicable Commitments of the Accepting Lenders; provided that such extension may not result in having more than two different maturity dates under this Agreement; provided further, that subject to any amendments to Sections 2.17 and 2.18 or otherwise to the extent dealing with Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans which mature or expire after a maturity date when there exist Extended Commitments with a longer maturity date (which may, with the consent of the applicable Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank, provide that participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Maturity Date then in effect shall be re-allocated on

237

the Maturity Date from existing Lenders to Accepting Lenders), all Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Commitments in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentage and all borrowings under the Commitments and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (1) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Commitments (and related outstandings) and (2) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Commitments), and (B) any other amendment to a Loan Document required to give effect to the Permitted Amendments described in clause (A) of this Section 11.02(g). This Section 11.02(g) shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.14 or Section 11.02 to the contrary.

(h) Certain Borrowing Base Additions. The Administrative Borrower may request that (i) Accounts of one or more Borrowers or Borrowing Base Guarantors that would otherwise not be Eligible Accounts solely because the Account Debtor either (A) maintains its Chief Executive Office in a specific jurisdiction that is not an Applicable Eligible Jurisdiction, or (B) is organized under the laws of a specific jurisdiction that is not an Applicable Eligible Jurisdiction or any state, territory, province or subdivision thereof, be treated as Eligible Accounts, or (ii) Accounts sold in a true sale by a Subsidiary Guarantor to a Borrower or Borrowing Base Guarantor (other than pursuant to the German Receivables Purchase Agreement or the Swiss Receivables Purchase Agreements) be able to be treated as Eligible Accounts of such Borrower or Borrowing Base Guarantor (subject to meeting applicable eligibility criteria), and in each case the Lenders hereby agree that the eligibility criteria may be adjusted to treat such Accounts as eligible accounts so long as (i) with regard to Accounts constituting in the aggregate less than 10% of the Total Borrowing Base, the Administrative Agent so agrees in its sole discretion, and (ii) with regard to Accounts constituting in the aggregate 10% or more (but less than 25%) of the Total Borrowing Base, the Majority Lenders so agree (provided that such an adjustment with regard to a greater portion of the Total Borrowing Base may be made only with the prior written consent of all Lenders (except a Defaulting Lender as provided in Section 2.14(f)); provided, however, that prior to any such Account being treated as eligible, (y) the Administrative Borrower shall, at Borrowers expense, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause the execution, acknowledgment and delivery of, and thereafter register, file or record, or cause to be registered, filed or recorded, in an appropriate governmental office, any security agreement, guaranty, or other agreement, document or instrument supplemental to or confirmatory of the Security Documents or other Loan Documents, together with such certificates, legal opinions, and other deliverables as may be requested by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, and (z) such Account shall meet such additional Eligibility Criteria as the Administrative Agent may establish in its sole discretion, including requiring legal opinions from both the jurisdiction in which the applicable account is originated and the jurisdiction of the account debtor, satisfaction of any requirements to notify account debtors in a manner deemed necessary and desirable, requiring periodic scheduling of accounts subject to pledge or other actions reasonably necessary to identify Accounts subject to a pledge and a field examination with respect to such Accounts. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may enter into the agreements and documents referred to in the definition of Eligible Swiss Subsidiary Accounts and otherwise effect the arrangements contemplated hereby with regard to such Accounts.

238

SECTION 11.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) Costs and Expenses. Borrowers shall reimburse each Agent for all Extraordinary Expenses. Borrowers shall also reimburse each Agent for all legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral, Loan Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of Collateral Agents Liens on any Collateral, to maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify Collateral; and (c) subject to the limits of Section 5.07(c), each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to any Loan Party or Collateral, whether prepared by an Agents personnel or a third party; provided that legal fees shall be limited to (together with allocated costs of internal counsel) the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one external counsel (plus local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) for the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, one external counsel (plus local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) for the Lenders, and one external counsel (plus local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) for any Receiver. All legal, accounting and consulting fees shall be charged to Borrowers by Agents professionals at their full hourly rates, regardless of any reduced or alternative fee billing arrangements that Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates may have with such professionals with respect to this or any other transaction. If, for any reason (including inaccurate reporting on financial statements or a Compliance Certificate), it is determined that a higher Applicable Margin should have applied to a period than was actually applied, then the proper margin shall be applied retroactively and Borrowers shall immediately pay to Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of Lenders, an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest and fees that would have accrued using the proper margin and the amount actually paid.

(b) Indemnification by Loan Parties. EACH LOAN PARTY SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES AGAINST ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE, INCLUDING CLAIMS ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE. In no event shall any party to a Loan Document have any obligation thereunder to indemnify or hold harmless an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. WITHOUT LIMITATION OF THE FOREGOING, IT IS THE INTENTION OF THE LOAN PARTIES, AND THE LOAN PARTIES AGREE, THAT THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNITEE WITH RESPECT TO LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, LIABILITIES AND RELATED EXPENSES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL EXPENSES OF LITIGATION OR PREPARATION THEREFOR), WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH (AND/OR ANY OTHER) INDEMNITEE.

(c) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or

239

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 paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it 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.

(d) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than three (3) Business Days after demand therefor accompanied by reasonable particulars of amounts due.

SECTION 11.04 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Loan Parties, each Agent, the Lenders, the other Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Loan Party shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Loan Documents (except as a result of a transaction expressly permitted by Section 6.05(c) or (e)); and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with this Section 11.04(c). Each Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 11.04(c). Any authorization or consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee or assignee of such Lender.

(b) Participations.

(i) Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time sell to a financial institution other than a Defaulting Lender (a Participant) a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Loan Documents. Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lenders obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans and Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by Borrowers shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and Borrowers and each Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Loan Documents. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and each Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant. Subject to the following sentence, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.06(j), Section 2.12, Section 2.13, Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.21, and Section 7.10 (subject to the requirements of those Sections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section (and such Participant shall be deemed to be a Lender for purposes of the definition of Excluded Taxes); provided that a Participant shall not be entitled to such benefits unless (A) such Participant and its respective participation are recorded in the Register in accordance with Section 11.04(c) as if such Participant were a Lender and (B) such Participant

240

complies with Section 2.15 as if such Participant were a Lender. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.06(j), Section 2.12, Section 2.13, Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.21, and Section 7.10 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 Administrative Borrowers prior written consent.

(ii) Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents other than that which (A) forgives principal, interest or fees, (B) reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, (C) postpones the Maturity Date or any date fixed for any regularly scheduled payment of principal, interest or fees on such Loan or Commitment, (D) except pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, as expressly provided in this Agreement or as otherwise provided by any such Guarantee, releases all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their Guarantees or limits the liability of all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors in respect of such Guarantees, or (E) except pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement or the express terms hereof, releases all or substantially all of the Collateral.

(iii) Benefit of Set-Off. Borrowers agree that each Participant shall have a right of set-off in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as if such interest were owing directly to a Lender, and each Lender shall also retain the right of set-off with respect to any participating interests sold by it. By exercising any right of set-off, a Participant agrees to share with Lenders all amounts received through its set-off, in accordance with Section 11.08 as if such Participant were a Lender.

(i) Permitted Assignments. A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, as long as (a) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lenders rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion) and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lenders rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of the Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least $10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion); and (c) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Assumption. Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under the Loan Documents to (i) any Federal Reserve Bank or the United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, or (ii) counterparties to swap agreements relating to any Loans; provided, however, that any payment by any Loan Party to the assigning Lender in respect of any Obligations assigned as described in this sentence shall satisfy the Loan Parties obligations hereunder to the extent of such payment, and no such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, no assignment or transfer of all or a portion of rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment or the Loans at the time owing to it)

241

shall be made by a Lender that is a Swiss Qualifying Bank to any assignee that is not a Swiss Qualifying Bank.

(ii) Effect; Effective Date. Upon delivery to Administrative Agent of an Assignment and Assumption and a processing fee of $3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion), the assignment shall become effective as specified in the notice (subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.04(d)), if it complies with this Section 11.04. From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall have all rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder. Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, Agents and Borrowers shall make appropriate arrangements for issuance of replacement and/or new Notes, as applicable. The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 2.15 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

(iii) Certain Transfers. In the event of a transfer by novation of all or part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement by a Lender, such Lender expressly reserves the rights, powers, privileges and actions that it enjoys under any Security Documents governed by French law in favor of its Eligible Assignee, in accordance with the provisions of article 1278 et seq. of the French Code civil.

(d) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall, at all times while the Loans and LC Disbursements (or any of them) are outstanding, maintain at one of its offices 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 of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the Register). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Issuing Banks, the Collateral Agent, the Swingline Lender and any Lender (with respect to its own interest only), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The requirements of this Section 11.04(c) are intended to result in any and all Loans and LC Disbursements being in registered form for purposes of Section 871, Section 881 and any other applicable provision of the Code, and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith.

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

242

(f) Successors and Assigns.

(i) Notwithstanding anything in Sections 11.04(a) (e), but only so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, no assignment or transfer of all or a portion of any Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment or the Loans at the time owing to it, and including assignment by way of security, novation or sub-participations) to a Swiss Non-Qualifying Bank shall be made without the prior written consent of the Swiss Borrower, except that such consent shall be given:

(1) if the transferee is an existing Lender; or

(2) if as a result of a change in Swiss Tax laws, a violation of the Ten Non-Bank Regulations and the Twenty Non-Bank Regulations no longer results in the imposition of Swiss stamp tax and/or Swiss withholding tax.

(ii) Any Lender that enters into a participation or sub-participation in relation to its Revolving Commitment or Loans in respect thereof shall ensure that, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing:

(1) the terms of such participations or sub-participation agreement prohibit the participant or sub-participant from entering into further sub-participation agreements (in relation to the rights between it and such Lender) and transferring, assigning (including by way of security) or granting any interest over the participant or sub-participation agreement, except in each case to a person who is an existing Lender, but subject to the consent contained above in paragraph (i) of this Section 11.04(f);

(2) the identity of the participant or sub-participant is permitted to be disclosed to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration by the Swiss Borrower;

(3) the participant or sub-participant enters into a unilateral undertaking in favor of Swiss Borrower to abide by the terms included in the participations or sub-participation agreement to reflect this Section 11.04(f) and Section 2.21; and

(4) the terms of such participations or sub-participation agreement oblige the participant or sub-participant, in respect of any further sub-participation, assignment, transfer or grant, to include, mutatis mutandis, the provisions of this Section, including a requirement that any further sub-participant, assignee or grantee enters into such undertaking and abides by the terms of Section 2.21.

Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (1) (4), unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, participations or sub-participations in relation to any Lenders Revolving Commitment or Loans in respect thereof are not permitted unless (y) such participant or sub-participant is a Swiss Qualifying Bank or, (z) if and to the extent there are in total not more than 10 Swiss Non-Qualifying Banks (including Lenders, participants and/or sub-participants), the Swiss Borrower consents to such participations or sub-participations under this Section 11.04(f)(ii), whereby such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and the relevant participations or sub-participations shall be counted against the number of Permitted Swiss Non-Qualifying Banks.

243

(iii) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in Subsection (ii) above restricts any Lender, participant or sub-participant from entering into any agreement with another person under which payments are made by reference to this Agreement or to any hereto related participation or sub-participation agreement (including without limitation credit default or total return swaps), provided such agreement is not treated as a sub-participation for the purposes of the Ten Non-Bank Regulations and the Twenty Non-Bank Regulations.

SECTION 11.05 Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agents, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.06(j), Section 2.12, Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.18, Section 2.21, Section 7.10, Section 11.03, Section 11.33, ARTICLE X, and this Section 11.05 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the payment of the Reimbursement Obligations, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 11.06 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, any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to any Agent or the Arranger, and any provisions of the Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter that are explicitly stated to survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement (which surviving obligations are hereby assumed by the Borrowers constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

SECTION 11.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and

244

Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the Act), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties, which information includes the name, address and tax identification number of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and other information regarding the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties in accordance with the Act. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the Act and is effective as to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 11.14 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 any 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 Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by an 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.

SECTION 11.15 [intentionally omitted].

SECTION 11.16 Obligations Absolute. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, all obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(b) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto against any Loan Party;

(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(d) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any other Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations;

(e) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof or any Loan Document; or

(f) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Loan Parties.

248

SECTION 11.17 Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Lender acknowledges that the Lien and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents and the exercise of any right or remedy by such Collateral Agent thereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.

SECTION 11.18 Judgment Currency.

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

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

(c) For purposes of determining the Relevant Currency Equivalent or any other rate of exchange for this Section 11.18, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

SECTION 11.19 Euro.

(a) If at any time that an Alternate Currency Revolving Loan is outstanding, the relevant Alternate Currency (other than the euro) is fully replaced as the lawful currency of the country that issued such Alternate Currency (the Issuing Country) by the euro so that all payments are to be made in the Issuing Country in euros and not in the Alternate Currency previously the lawful currency of such country, then such Alternate Currency Revolving Loan

249

shall be automatically converted into a Loan denominated in euros in a principal amount equal to the amount of euros into which the principal amount of such Alternate Currency Revolving Loan would be converted pursuant to law and thereafter no further Loans will be available in such Alternate Currency.

(b) The Parent Borrower shall, or shall cause the applicable Loan Party from time to time, at the request of any Lender accompanied by reasonably documented particulars thereof, pay to such Lender the amount of any losses, damages, liabilities, claims, reduction in yield, additional expense, increased cost, reduction in any amount payable, reduction in the effective return of its capital, the decrease or delay in the payment of interest or any other return forgone by such Lender or its Affiliates as a result of the tax or currency exchange resulting from the introduction of, changeover to or operation of the euro in any applicable nation or eurocurrency market.

SECTION 11.20 Special Provisions Relating to Currencies Other Than Dollars.

(a) All funds to be made available to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement in euros, Swiss francs or GBP shall be made available to Administrative Agent in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds to such account with such bank in such principal financial center in such Participating Member State (or in London) as Administrative Agent shall from time to time nominate for this purpose.

(b) In relation to the payment of any amount denominated in euros, Swiss francs or GBP, Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Loan Party or any of the Lenders for any delay, or the consequences of any delay, in the crediting to any account of any amount required by this Agreement to be paid by Administrative Agent if Administrative Agent shall have taken all relevant and necessary steps to achieve, on the date required by this Agreement, the payment of such amount in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds (in euros, Swiss francs or GBP) to the account with the bank in the principal financial center in the Participating Member State which the Administrative Borrower or, as the case may be, any Lender shall have specified for such purpose. In this Section 11.20(b), all relevant steps means all such steps as may be prescribed from time to time by the regulations or operating procedures of such clearing or settlement system as Administrative Agent may from time to time determine for the purpose of clearing or settling payments of euros, Swiss francs or GBP. Furthermore, and without limiting the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Loan Party or any of the Lenders with respect to the foregoing matters in the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision or pursuant to a binding arbitration award or as otherwise agreed in writing by the affected parties).

SECTION 11.21 Abstract Acknowledgment of Indebtedness and Joint Creditorship.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees and covenants with the Collateral Agent by way of an abstract acknowledgment of indebtedness (abstraktes Schuldversprechen) that it owes to the Collateral Agent as creditor in its own right and not as a representative of the other Secured Parties, sums equal to, and in the currency of, each amount payable by such

250

Loan Party to each of the Secured Parties under each of the Loan Documents and Bank Product Agreements relating to any Secured Obligations, as and when that amount falls due for payment under the relevant Secured Debt Agreement or would have fallen due but for any discharge resulting from failure of another Secured Party to take appropriate steps, in insolvency proceedings affecting such Loan Party, to preserve its entitlement to be paid that amount.

(b) Each Loan Party undertakes to pay to the Collateral Agent upon first written demand the amount payable by such Loan Party to each of the Secured Parties under each of the Secured Debt Agreements as such amount has become due and payable.

(c) The Collateral Agent has the independent right to demand and receive full or partial payment of the amounts payable by each Loan Party under this Section 11.21, irrespective of any discharge of such Loan Partys obligation to pay those amounts to the other Secured Parties resulting from failure by them to take appropriate steps, in insolvency proceedings affecting such Loan Party, to preserve their entitlement to be paid those amounts.

(d) Any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to the Collateral Agent under this Section 11.21 shall be decreased to the extent that the other Secured Parties have received (and are able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under the other provisions of the Secured Debt Agreements and any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to the other Secured Parties under those provisions shall be decreased to the extent that the Collateral Agent has received (and is able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under this Section 11.21; provided that no Loan Party may consider its obligations towards a Secured Party to be so discharged by virtue of any set-off, counterclaim or similar defense that it may invoke vis-à-vis the Collateral Agent.

(e) The rights of the Secured Parties (other than the Collateral Agent) to receive payment of amounts payable by each Loan Party under the Secured Debt Agreements are several and are separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the rights of the Collateral Agent to receive payment under this Section 11.21.

(f) In addition, but without prejudice to the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall be the joint creditor (together with the relevant Secured Parties) of all obligations of each Loan Party towards each of the Secured Parties under the Secured Debt Agreements.

SECTION 11.22 Special Appointment of Collateral Agent for German Security.

(a) (i) Each Secured Party that is or will become party to this Agreement hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as trustee (Treuhaender) and administrator for the purpose of holding on trust (Treuhand), administering, enforcing and releasing the German Security (as defined below) for the Secured Parties, (ii) the Collateral Agent accepts its appointment as a trustee and administrator of the German Security on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Agreement and (iii) the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent and all other parties to this Agreement agree that, in relation to the German Security, no Secured Party shall exercise any independent power to enforce any German Security or take any other action in

251

relation to the enforcement of the German Security, or make or receive any declarations in relation thereto.

(b) To the extent possible, the Collateral Agent shall hold and administer any German Security which is security assigned, transferred or pledged under German law to it as a trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, where German Security shall mean the assets which are the subject of a security document which is governed by German law.

(c) Each Secured Party hereby authorizes and instructs the Collateral Agent (with the right of sub delegation) to enter into any documents evidencing German Security and to make and accept all declarations and take all actions as it considers necessary or useful in connection with any German Security on behalf of the Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall further be entitled to rescind, release, amend and/or execute new and different documents securing the German Security.

(d) The Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent agree that all rights and claims constituted by the abstract acknowledgment of indebtedness pursuant to this Section 11.22 and all proceeds held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to or in connection with such abstract acknowledgment of indebtedness are held by the Collateral Agent with effect from the date of such abstract acknowledgment of indebtedness in trust for the Secured Parties and will be administered in accordance with the Loan Documents and Bank Product Agreements relating to any Secured Obligations. The Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent agree further that the respective Loan Partys obligations under such abstract acknowledgment of indebtedness shall not increase the total amount of the Secured Obligations (as defined in the respective agreement governing German Security) and shall not result in any additional liability of any of the Loan Parties or otherwise prejudice the rights of any of the Loan Parties. Accordingly, payment of the obligations under such abstract acknowledgment of indebtedness shall, to the same extent, discharge the corresponding Secured Obligations and vice versa.

SECTION 11.23 Special Appointment of Administrative Agent in Relation to South Korea; Certain Lock-Up or Listing Agreements.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Administrative Agent, as creditor in its own right and not as representative of the other Secured Parties, sums equal to and in the currency of each amount payable by such Loan Party to each of the Secured Parties under each of the Loan Documents as and when that amount falls due for payment under the relevant Loan Document or would have fallen due but for any discharge resulting from failure of another Secured Party to take appropriate steps, in insolvency proceedings affecting that Loan Party, to preserve its entitlement to be paid that amount.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall have its own independent right to demand payment of the amounts payable by each Loan Party under this Section 11.23, irrespective of any discharge of such Loan Partys obligation to pay those amounts to the Secured Parties resulting from failure by them to take appropriate steps, in insolvency proceedings affecting that Loan Party, to preserve their entitlement to be paid those amounts.

252

(c) Any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to the Administrative Agent under this Section 11.23 shall be decreased to the extent that the other Secured Parties have received (and are able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under the other provisions of the Loan Documents and any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to the other Secured Parties under those provisions shall be decreased to the extent that the Administrative Agent has received (and is able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under this Section 11.23.

(d) Subject to paragraph (c) above, the rights of the Secured Parties (in each case, other than the Administrative Agent) to receive payment of amounts payable by each Loan Party under the Loan Documents are several and are separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the rights of the Administrative Agent to receive payment under this Section 11.23.

(e) The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are authorized to enter into consents to any lock-up or listing agreement required by any applicable rule or regulation in connection with any listing or offering of Equity Interests in NKL and may consent to such Equity Interests being held by a depositary or securities intermediary; provided, that the Collateral Agents Liens in the Equity Interests of NKL or its direct parents, 4260848 Canada Inc. and 4260856 Canada Inc., are not impaired.

SECTION 11.24 Special Appointment of Collateral Agent in Relation to France.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each French Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes insofar as necessary, in advance, to pay to the Collateral Agent, as creditor in its own right and not as representative of the other Secured Parties, sums equal to and in the currency of each amount payable by such French Guarantor to each of the Secured Parties under each of the Loan Documents as and when that amount falls due for payment under the relevant Loan Document or would have fallen due but for any discharge resulting from failure of another Secured Party to take appropriate steps to preserve its entitlement to be paid that amount (such payment undertakings, obligations and liabilities which are the result thereof, hereinafter referred to as the Parallel Debt).

(b) The Collateral Agent shall have its own independent right to demand payment of the amounts payable by each French Guarantor under this Section 11.24, irrespective of any discharge of such French Guarantors obligation to pay those amounts to the other Secured Parties resulting from failure by them to take appropriate steps to preserve their entitlement to be paid those amounts.

(c) Any amount due and payable by a French Guarantor to the Collateral Agent under this Section 11.24 shall be decreased to the extent that the other Secured Parties have received (and are able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under the other provisions of the Loan Documents and any amount due and payable by a French Guarantor to the other Secured Parties under those provisions shall be decreased to the extent that the Collateral Agent has received (and is able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under this Section 11.24.

253

(d) The Collateral Agent shall apply any amounts received in payment of any Parallel Debt in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement governing the application of proceeds in payment of any Secured Obligations.

(e) The rights of the Secured Parties (other than any Parallel Debt) to receive payment of amounts payable by each French Guarantor under the Loan Documents are several and are separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the rights of the Collateral Agent to receive payment under this Section 11.24.

SECTION 11.25 Swiss Tax Ruling. The Swiss Borrower shall obtain subsequent to the Closing Date (but within a reasonable time frame) (a) a ruling from the Wallis cantonal tax authority confirming that the payment of interests under this Agreement shall not be subject to federal, cantonal, and municipal direct taxes levied at source in Switzerland as per Article 51 § 1 lit. d and Article 94 of the Swiss Federal Direct Tax Act of December 14, 1990 and as per Article 21 § 2 lit. a and Article 35 § 1 lit. e of the Swiss Federal Harmonization Direct Tax Act of December 14, 1990, but only to the extent and limited to the interests paid by the Swiss Borrower in connection with the Swiss Revolving Loan and which are secured by the Swiss real estate mortgage in an amount of CHF 60 million, and (b) a ruling from the Zurich cantonal tax authority confirming that the aforesaid direct taxes levied at source may be solely ruled with the Canton where the Swiss real estate is located. The Swiss Borrower further acknowledges that the gross-up mechanism provided for under Section 2.15 shall apply with respect to any such direct taxes levied at source.

SECTION 11.26 Designation of Collateral Agent under Civil Code of Quebec. Each of the parties hereto (including each Lender, acting for itself and on behalf of each of its Affiliates which are or become Secured Parties from time to time) confirms the appointment and designation of the Collateral Agent (or any successor thereto) as the person holding the power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec for the purposes of the hypothecary security to be granted by the Loan Parties or any one of them under the laws of the Province of Québec and, in such capacity, the Collateral Agent shall hold the hypothecs granted under the laws of the Province of Québec as such fondé de pouvoir in the exercise of the rights conferred thereunder. The execution by the Collateral Agent in its capacity as fondé de pouvoir prior to the date hereof of any document creating or evidencing any such hypothecs is hereby ratified and confirmed. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 32 of the Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Québec), the Collateral Agent may acquire and be the holder of any of the bonds secured by any such hypothec. Each future Secured Party, whether a Lender, an Issuer or a holder of any Secured Obligation, shall be deemed to have ratified and confirmed (for itself and on behalf of each of its Affiliates that are or become Secured Parties from time to time) the appointment of the Collateral Agent as fondé de pouvoir.

SECTION 11.27 Maximum Liability. Subject to Section 7.08 and Sections 7.11 to 7.16, it is the desire and intent of each Loan Party and the Secured Parties that their respective liability shall be enforced against each Loan Party to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought after giving effect to the rights of contribution established in the Contribution, Intercompany, Contracting and Offset Agreement that are valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. If, however, and to the extent that, the obligations of

254

any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of such Loan Partys obligations under the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be reduced and such Loan Party shall pay the maximum amount of the Secured Obligations which would be permissible under Applicable Law.

SECTION 11.28 NO ORAL AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

SECTION 11.29 Performance of Borrowers Obligations. Each Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, at Borrowers expense, pay any amount or do any act required of a Loan Party under any Loan Documents or otherwise lawfully requested by any Agent to (a) enforce any Loan Documents or collect any Secured Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority of Collateral Agents Liens in any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any discharge of a Lien. All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of any Agent under this Section shall be reimbursed to such Agent by Borrowers, on demand, with interest from the date incurred to the date of payment thereof at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. Any payment made or action taken by any Agent under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 11.30 Credit Inquiries. Each Loan Party hereby authorizes each Agent and each Lender (but they shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Loan Party or Subsidiary.

SECTION 11.31 Relationship with Lenders. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender. Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt. It shall not be necessary for any Agent or any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes. Nothing in this Agreement and no action of any Agent, any Lender or any other Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to constitute any Agent and any Secured Party to be a partnership, association, joint venture or any other kind of entity, nor to constitute control of any Loan Party.

SECTION 11.32 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that (a)(i) this credit facility and any related arranging or other services by any Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger are arms-length commercial transactions between the Loan Parties and such Person; (ii) the Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate; and (iii) the Loan Parties are capable of evaluating and understanding, and do understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; (b) each

255

Agent, each Lender, their Affiliates and any arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal in connection with this credit facility, is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Loan Parties, any of their Affiliates or any other Person, and has no obligation with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth therein; and (c) each Agent, each Lender, their Affiliates and any arranger may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, and have no obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Loan Parties or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against any Agent, any Lender, their Affiliates and any arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated by a Loan Document.

SECTION 11.33 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. None of the Agents or the other Secured Parties shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or against any Secured Obligations. If any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to any Agent or other Secured Party, or an Agent or other Secured Party exercises a 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 any Agent or other Secured Party in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person, then to the extent of such recovery, the Secured Obligation originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

SECTION 11.34 One Obligation. The Loans, LC Obligations and other Secured Obligations shall constitute one general obligation of Borrowers and (unless otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document) shall be secured by Collateral Agents Lien upon all Collateral; provided, however, that each Agent and each other Secured Party shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Borrower to the extent of any Secured Obligations jointly or severally owed by such Borrower.

If the first Borrowing Base Certificate in any fiscal quarter is not received by the date required under Section 9.03, then, at the option of the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders, the margins shall be determined as if Level IV were applicable, from such day until the first day of the calendar month following actual receipt.

Annex III

Mandatory Cost Formula

1. The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

2. On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the Additional Cost Rate) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

3. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lenders participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

4. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows:


(a)	in relation to a GBP Denominated Loan:

	AB + C(BD)+Ex 0.0l 100(A+C)	per cent. per annum

(b)	in relation to a Loan in any currency other than GBP:

	Ex 0.01 300	per cent. per annum.

Where:

A is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

B is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in Section 2.06(f)) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.

C is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

D is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Administrative Agent (or such other bank as may be designated by the Administrative Agent in consultation with Administrative Borrower) on interest bearing Special Deposits.

E is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in GBP per £1,000,000.

5. For the purposes of this Schedule:

(a) Eligible Liabilities and Special Deposits have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

(b) Facility Office means the office or offices notified by a Lender to the Administrative Agent in writing on or before the date it becomes a Lender (or, following that date, by not less than five Business Days written notice) as the office or offices through which it will perform its obligations under this Agreement;

(c) Fees Rules means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

(d) Fee Tariffs means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A. I Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate);

(e) Reference Banks means, in relation to the EURIBOR Rate and Mandatory Cost, the principal office in Chicago, Illinois of Bank of America, N.A., or such other bank or banks as may be designated by the Administrative Agent in consultation with Administrative Borrower;

(f) Tariff Base has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules; and

(g) Unpaid Sum means any sum due and payable but unpaid by any Loan Party under the Loan Documents.

6. In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

7. If requested by the Administrative Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Administrative Agent the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in GBP per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

8. Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

(a) the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

(b) any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

9. The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lenders obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

10. The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.

11. The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.

12. Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to this Agreement.

13. The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with Administrative Borrower and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties to this Agreement any amendments which are required to be made to this Annex III in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of

England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to this Agreement.

A G R E E M E N T:

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord hereby represents, warrants and agrees in favor of Collateral Agent, as follows:

1. Landlord hereby waives and releases unto Collateral Agent (i) any contractual landlords lien and any other landlords lien which it may be entitled to at law or in equity against any Personal Property, (ii) any and all rights granted by or under any present or future laws to levy or distrain for rent or any other charges which may be due to the Landlord against the Personal Property and (iii) any and all claims, liens and demands of every kind which it has or may hereafter have against the Personal Property (including, without limitation, any right to include the Personal Property in any secured financing Landlord may become party to). Landlord acknowledges that the Personal Property is and will remain personal property and not fixtures even though it may be affixed to or placed on the Real Property.

Premises, and the Lease is not subordinate, and has not been subordinated by Landlord, to any mortgage, lien or other encumbrance, (xii) Landlord has not assigned, conveyed, transferred, sold, encumbered or mortgaged its interest in the Lease or the Real Property, and there are no mortgages, deeds of trust or other security interests encumbering Landlords fee interest in the Leased Premises, (xiii) Landlord has not received written notice of any pending eminent domain proceedings or other governmental actions or any judicial actions of any kind against Landlords interest in the Real Property, and (xiv) Landlord, and the person or persons executing this certificate on behalf of Landlord, have the power and authority to execute this Agreement.

3. Landlord agrees that Collateral Agent has the right to remove the Personal Property from the Leased Premises at any time prior to the occurrence of a default under the Lease and, after the occurrence of such a default, during the Standstill Period (as hereinafter defined) provided that Collateral Agent shall repair any damage arising from such removal. Landlord further agrees that, during the foregoing periods, Landlord will not (i) remove any of the Personal Property from the Leased Premises or (ii) hinder Collateral Agents actions in removing Personal Property from the Leased Premises or Collateral Agents actions in otherwise enforcing its security interest in the Personal Property. Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any diminution in value of the Leased Premises caused by the absence of Personal Property actually removed or by the need to replace the Personal Property after such removal. Landlord acknowledges that Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to remove the Personal Property from the Leased Premises.

4. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that Lessees granting of a security interest in the Personal Property [and the granting of a mortgage lien in and upon Lessees interest in the Leased Premises, in each case,]⁶ in favor of Collateral Agent (for its benefit and the benefit of the Secured Parties) shall not constitute a default under the Lease nor permit Landlord to terminate the Lease or re-enter or repossess the Leased Premises or otherwise be the basis for the exercise of any remedy by Landlord and Landlord hereby expressly consents to the granting of such security interest [and mortgage lien.]⁷.

5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Lease, in the event of a default by Lessee under the Lease, Landlord agrees that (i) it shall provide to Collateral Agent at the address set forth in the introductory paragraph hereof a copy of any notice of default delivered to Lessee under the Lease and (ii) it shall not exercise any of its remedies against Lessee provided in favor of Landlord under the Lease or at law or in equity until, in the case of a monetary default, the date which is 45 days after the date Landlord delivers written notice of such monetary default to Collateral Agent, and in the case of a non-monetary default, the date which is 60 days after the date Landlord delivers written notice of such non-monetary default to Collateral Agent (such 45-day period for monetary defaults and such 60 day period for non-monetary defaults, as applicable, being referred to as the Standstill Period), provided, however, if such non-monetary default by its nature cannot reasonably be cured by Collateral Agent within such 60 day period, Collateral Agent shall have such additional period of time as may be reasonably necessary to cure such non-monetary default, so long as Lessee commences such curative measures within such 60 day period and thereafter proceeds diligently to complete such curative measures. In the event that any such non-monetary default by its nature cannot reasonably be cured by Collateral Agent, Landlord shall, provided Collateral Agent has theretofore cured

Collateral Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, during the Standstill Period, to cure any such default and Landlord shall accept any such cure by Collateral Agent or Lessee. If, during the Standstill Period, Collateral Agent or Lessee or any other Person cures any such default, then Landlord shall rescind the notice of default.

6. In the event of a termination, disaffirmance or rejection of the Lease for any reason, including, without limitation, pursuant to any laws (including any bankruptcy or other insolvency laws) by Lessee or the termination of the Lease for any reason by Landlord, Landlord will give Collateral Agent the right, within sixty (60) days of such event, provided all monetary defaults under the Lease have been cured, to enter into a new lease of the Leased Premises, in the name of Collateral Agent (or a designee to be named by Collateral Agent at the time), for the remainder of the term of the Lease and upon all of the terms and conditions thereof, or, if Collateral Agent shall elect not to exercise such right (such election to be made by Collateral Agent at its sole discretion), Landlord will give Collateral Agent the right to enter upon the Leased Premises during such sixty (60) day period for the purpose of removing Tenants personal property therefrom.

7. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Lease, any acquisition of Lessees interest by Collateral Agent, its nominee, shall not create a default under, or require Landlords consent under, the Lease.

8. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of Landlord (including, without limitation, any successor owner of the Real Property) and Collateral Agent. Landlord will disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement to any purchaser or successor to Landlords interest in the Leased Premises. Notwithstanding that the provisions of this Agreement are self-executing, Landlord agrees, upon request by Collateral Agent, to execute and deliver a written acknowledgment confirming the provisions of this Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Collateral Agent.

9. All notices to any party hereto under this Agreement shall be in writing and sent to such party at its respective address set forth above (or at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 9) by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested or by overnight delivery service.

10. The provisions of this Agreement shall continue in effect until Landlord shall have received Collateral Agents written certification that the Loans have been paid in full and all of Lessees other Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been satisfied.

11. THE INTERPRETATION, VALIDITY AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

12.

-4-

13. Landlord agrees that, so long as the Loans and Lessees Obligations under the Credit Agreement remain outstanding and Collateral Agent retains an interest in the Personal Property [and/or Lessees interest in the Leased Premises]⁸, no modification, alteration or amendment shall be made to the Lease without the prior written consent of Collateral Agent if such modification, alteration or amendment could have a material adverse effect on the value or use of the Leased Premises or Lessees obligations or rights under the Lease.

If, upon the resolution of such proceedings, the Mortgagor shall suffer a loss of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or interest therein and title insurance proceeds shall be payable in connection therewith, such proceeds are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to the Mortgagee to be applied as Net Cash Proceeds to the payment of the Secured Obligations or otherwise in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement.

CONCERNING ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS

SECTION 5.1. Present Assignment; License to the Mortgagor.

(i) Section 2.2 of this Mortgage constitutes a present, absolute, effective, irrevocable and complete assignment by Mortgagor to Mortgagee of the Leases and Rents and the right, subject to applicable law, to collect all sums payable to Mortgagor thereunder and apply the same as Mortgagee may, in its sole discretion, determine to be appropriate to protect the security afforded by this Mortgage (including the payment of reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the maintenance, operation, improvement, insurance, taxes and upkeep of the Mortgaged Property), which is not conditioned upon Mortgagee being in possession of the Premises. This assignment is an absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. The Mortgagee hereby grants to the Mortgagor, however, a license to collect and apply the Rents and to enforce the obligations of Tenants under the Leases. Immediately upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, whether or not legal proceedings have commenced and without regard to waste, adequacy of security for the Secured Obligations or solvency of Mortgagor, the license granted in the immediately preceding sentence shall automatically cease and terminate without any notice by Mortgagee (such notice being hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor to the extent permitted by applicable law), or any action or proceeding or the intervention of a receiver appointed by a court.

(ii) Mortgagor acknowledges that Mortgagee has taken all reasonable actions necessary to obtain, and that upon recordation of this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall have, to the extent permitted under applicable law, a valid and fully perfected, present assignment of the Rents arising out of the Leases and all security for such Leases subject only to the Permitted Liens and in the case of security deposits, rights of depositors and Requirements of Law. Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that upon recordation of this Mortgage, Mortgagees interest in the Rents shall be deemed to be fully perfected, choate and enforced as to Mortgagor and all third parties, including, without limitation, any subsequently appointed trustee in any case under Title 11 of the United States Code (the Bankruptcy Code), without the necessity of commencing a foreclosure action with respect to this Mortgage, making formal demand for the Rents, obtaining the appointment of a receiver or taking any other affirmative action.

(iii) Without limitation of the absolute nature of the assignment of the Rents hereunder, Mortgagor and Mortgagee agree that (a) this Mortgage shall constitute a security agreement for purposes of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) the security interest created by this Mortgage extends to property of Mortgagor acquired before the commencement of a case in bankruptcy and to all amounts paid as Rents, and (c) such security interest shall extend to all Rents acquired by the estate after the commencement of any case in bankruptcy.

-11-

SECTION 5.2. Collection of Rents by the Mortgagee.

(i) Any Rents receivable by the Mortgagee hereunder, after payment of all proper costs and expenses as Mortgagee may, in its sole discretion, determine to be appropriate (including the payment of reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the maintenance, operation, improvement, insurance, taxes and upkeep of the Mortgaged Property), shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement. The Mortgagee shall be accountable to the Mortgagor only for Rents actually received by the Mortgagee. The collection of such Rents and the application thereof shall not cure or waive any Event of Default or waive, modify or affect notice of any Event of Default or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.

(ii) The Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Tenant under each Lease to rely upon and comply with any and all notices or demands from the Mortgagee for payment of Rents to the Mortgagee and the Mortgagor shall have no claim against Tenant for Rents paid by Tenant to the Mortgagee pursuant to such notice or demand.

SECTION 5.3. Irrevocable Interest. All rights, powers and privileges of the Mortgagee herein set forth are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and the Mortgagor shall not take any action under the Leases or otherwise which is inconsistent with this Mortgage or any of the terms hereof and any such action inconsistent herewith or therewith shall be void.

-12-

any other Loan Document which are payable by or assessed on the Mortgagee, the Mortgagor shall promptly pay to the Mortgagee or the appropriate tax authority such amount or amounts as may be necessary from time to time to pay any such taxes, assessments or other charges resulting therefrom; provided, that if any such payment or reimbursement to the Mortgagee shall be unlawful or taxable, or would constitute usury or render the indebtedness wholly or partially usurious under applicable law, the Mortgagor shall pay or reimburse Mortgagee for payment of the lawful and non-usurious portion thereof.

SECTION 6.4. Proceeds of Tax Claim. In the event that the proceeds of any tax claim are paid after the Mortgagee has exercised its right to foreclose the Lien hereof, such proceeds shall be paid to the Mortgagee to satisfy any deficiency remaining after such foreclosure.

The proceeds payable in respect of any such Casualty Event are hereby assigned and shall be paid to the Mortgagee. The Net Cash Proceeds of each Casualty Event shall be applied, allocated and distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 7.2. Condemnation.

The Mortgagee may be represented by counsel satisfactory to it at the reasonable expense of the Mortgagor in connection with any such participation.

(i) personally, or by its agents or attorneys, (A) enter into and upon and take possession of all or any part of the Premises together with the books, records and accounts of the Mortgagor relating thereto and, exclude the Mortgagor, its agents and servants wholly therefrom, (B) use, operate, manage and control the Premises and conduct the business thereof, (C) maintain and restore the Premises, (D) make all necessary or proper repairs, renewals and replacements and such useful alterations thereto and thereon as the Mortgagee may deem advisable, (E) manage, lease and operate the Premises and carry on the business thereof and exercise all rights and powers of the Mortgagor with respect thereto either in the name of the Mortgagor or otherwise or (F) collect and receive all Rents. The Mortgagee shall be under no liability for or by reason of any such taking of possession, entry, removal or holding, operation or management except that any amounts so received by the Mortgagee shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement.

(ii) with or without entry, personally or by its agents or attorneys (A) sell the Mortgaged Property and all estate, right, title and interest, claim and demand therein at one or more sales in one or more parcels, in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.2 hereof or (B) institute and prosecute proceedings for the complete or partial foreclosure of the Lien and security interests created and evidenced hereby; or

(iii) take such steps to protect and enforce its rights whether by action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or in aid of the execution of any power granted in this Mortgage, or for any foreclosure hereunder, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy or otherwise as the Mortgagee shall elect.

SECTION 8.2. Sale of Mortgaged Property if Event of Default Occurs; Proceeds of Sale.

(i) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Mortgagee may institute an action to foreclose this Mortgage or take such other action as may be permitted and available to the Mortgagee at law or in equity for the enforcement of the Credit Agreement and realization on the Mortgaged Property and proceeds thereon through power of sale (if then available under applicable law) or to final judgment and execution thereof for the Secured Obligations, and in furtherance thereof the Mortgagee may sell the Mortgaged Property at one or more sales, as an entirety or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and

-14-

after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law or statute or in equity. The Mortgagee may execute and deliver to the purchaser at such sale a conveyance of the Mortgaged Property in fee simple and an assignment or conveyance of all the Mortgagors Interest in the Leases and the Mortgaged Property, each of which conveyances and assignments shall contain recitals as to the Event of Default upon which the execution of the power of sale herein granted depends, and the Mortgagor hereby constitutes and appoints the Mortgagee the true and lawful attorney(s) in fact of the Mortgagor to make any such recitals, sale, assignment and conveyance, and all of the acts of the Mortgagee as such attorney in fact are hereby ratified and confirmed. The Mortgagor agrees that such recitals shall be binding and conclusive upon the Mortgagor and that any assignment or conveyance to be made by the Mortgagee shall divest the Mortgagor of all right, title, interest, equity and right of redemption, including any statutory redemption, in and to the Mortgaged Property. The power and agency hereby granted are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable by death or dissolution, or otherwise, and are in addition to any and all other remedies which the Mortgagee may have hereunder, at law or in equity. So long as the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, remain unpaid, the Mortgagor agrees that possession of the Mortgaged Property by the Mortgagor, or any person claiming under the Mortgagor, shall be as tenant, and, in case of a sale under power or upon foreclosure as provided in this Mortgage, the Mortgagor and any person in possession under the Mortgagor, as to whose interest such sale was not made subject, shall, at the option of the purchaser at such sale, then become and be tenants holding over, and shall forthwith deliver possession to such purchaser, or be summarily dispossessed in accordance with the laws applicable to tenants holding over. In case of any sale under this Mortgage by virtue of the exercise of the powers herein granted, or pursuant to any order in any judicial proceeding or otherwise, the Mortgaged Property may be sold as an entirety or in separate parcels in such manner or order as the Mortgagee in its sole discretion may elect. One or more exercises of powers herein granted shall not extinguish or exhaust such powers, until the entire Mortgaged Property is sold or all amounts secured hereby are paid in full.

(ii) The proceeds of any sale made under or by virtue of this Article VIII, together with any other sums which then may be held by the Mortgagee under this Mortgage, whether under the provisions of this Article VIII or otherwise, shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement.

(iii) The Mortgagee (on behalf of any Secured Party or on its own behalf) or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates may bid for and acquire the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof at any sale made under or by virtue of this Article VIII and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting against the purchase price the unpaid amounts (whether or not then due) owing to the Mortgagee, or such Lender in respect of the Secured Obligations, after deducting from the sales price the expense of the sale and the costs of the action or proceedings and any other sums that the Mortgagee or such Lender is authorized to deduct under this Mortgage.

(iv) The Mortgagee may adjourn from time to time any sale by it to be made under or by virtue hereof by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales, and, the Mortgagee, without further notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned.

-15-

(v) If the Premises are comprised of more than one parcel of land, the Mortgagee may take any of the actions authorized by this Section 8.2 in respect of any or a number of individual parcels.

SECTION 8.3. Additional Remedies in Case of an Event of Default.

(i) The Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment as aforesaid either before, after or during the pendency of any proceedings for the enforcement of the provisions hereof and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the right of the Mortgagee to recover such judgment shall not be affected by any entry or sale hereunder, or by the exercise of any other right, power or remedy for the enforcement of the provisions hereof, or the foreclosure of, or absolute conveyance pursuant to, this Mortgage. In case of proceedings against the Mortgagor in insolvency or bankruptcy or any proceedings for its reorganization or involving the liquidation of its assets, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to prove the whole amount of principal and interest and other payments, charges and costs due in respect of the Secured Obligations to the full amount thereof without deducting therefrom any proceeds obtained from the sale of the whole or any part of the Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that in no case shall the Mortgagee receive a greater amount than the aggregate of such principal, interest and such other payments, charges and costs (with interest at the Default Rate) from the proceeds of the sale of the Mortgaged Property and the distribution from the estate of the Mortgagor.

(ii) Any recovery of any judgment by the Mortgagee and any levy of any execution under any judgment upon the Mortgaged Property shall not affect in any manner or to any extent the Lien and security interests created and evidenced hereby upon the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or any conveyances, powers, rights and remedies of the Mortgagee hereunder, but such conveyances, powers, rights and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before.

(iii) Any monies collected by the Mortgagee under this Section 8.3 shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.2(ii).

SECTION 8.4. Legal Proceedings After an Event of Default.

(i) After the occurrence of any Event of Default and immediately upon the commencement of any action, suit or legal proceedings to obtain judgment for the Secured Obligations or any part thereof, or of any proceedings to foreclose the Lien and security interest created and evidenced hereby or otherwise to enforce the provisions hereof or of any other proceedings in aid of the enforcement hereof, the Mortgagor shall enter its voluntary appearance in such action, suit or proceeding.

(ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Mortgagee shall be entitled forthwith as a matter of right, concurrently or independently of any other right or remedy hereunder either before or after declaring the Secured Obligations or any part thereof to be due and payable, to the appointment of a receiver without giving notice to any party and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of any security for the Secured Obligations or the solvency or insolvency of any person or entity then legally or equitably liable for the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof. The Mortgagor hereby consents to the

-16-

appointment of such receiver. Notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver, the Mortgagee shall be entitled as pledgee to the possession and control of any cash, deposits or instruments at the time held by or payable or deliverable under the terms of the Credit Agreement to the Mortgagee.

(iii) The Mortgagor shall not (A) at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take any benefit or advantage of any stay or extension or moratorium law, any exemption from execution or sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants and terms of performance hereof, (B) claim, take or insist on any benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or appraisal of the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, prior to any sale or sales of the Mortgaged Property which may be made pursuant to this Mortgage, or pursuant to any decree, judgment or order of any court of competent jurisdiction or (C) after any such sale or sales, claim or exercise any right under any statute heretofore or hereafter enacted to redeem the property so sold or any part thereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Mortgagor hereby expressly (X) waives all benefit or advantage of any such law or laws, including, without limitation, any statute of limitations applicable to this Mortgage, (Y) waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding brought in connection with this Mortgage and further waives and agrees not to plead that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and (Z) covenants not to hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted or delegated to the Mortgagee by this Mortgage but to suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law or laws had been made or enacted. The Mortgagee shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article VIII in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 8.5. Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Mortgagee by this Mortgage is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Mortgage or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. Any delay or omission of the Mortgagee to exercise any right or power accruing on any Event of Default shall not impair any such right or power and shall not be construed to be a waiver of or acquiescence in any such Event of Default. Every power and remedy given by this Mortgage may be exercised from time to time concurrently or independently, when and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee in such order and manner as the Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may elect. If the Mortgagee or any Lender accepts any monies required to be paid by the Mortgagor under this Mortgage or any other Loan Document after the same become due, such acceptance shall not constitute a waiver of the right either to require prompt payment, when due, of all other sums secured by this Mortgage or to declare an Event of Default with regard to subsequent defaults. If the Mortgagee or any Lender accepts any monies required to be paid by the Mortgagor under this Mortgage or any other Loan Document in an amount less than the sum then due, such acceptance shall be deemed an acceptance on account only and on the condition that it shall not constitute a waiver of the obligation of the Mortgagor to pay the entire sum then due, and the Mortgagors failure to pay the entire sum then due shall be and continue to be a default hereunder notwithstanding acceptance of such amount on account.

understood that neither the Mortgagee nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Mortgaged Property.

(iii) The Mortgagee shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Mortgage and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

(v) If any portion of the Mortgaged Property also constitutes collateral granted by Mortgagor to the Mortgagee to secure the Secured Obligations under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, shall select which provision or provisions shall control.

-22-

PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR ITEM OR TYPE OF MORTGAGED PROPERTY ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN SUCH STATE. MORTGAGOR AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH THE MORTGAGEE SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED PURSUANT THERETO. IF ANY AGENT APPOINTED BY MORTGAGOR REFUSES TO ACCEPT SERVICE, MORTGAGOR HEREBY AGREES THAT SERVICE UPON IT BY MAIL SHALL CONSTITUTE SUFFICIENT NOTICE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF MORTGAGEE TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST MORTGAGOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THE MORTGAGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS MORTGAGE OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

SECTION 11.10. Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 11.11. Relationship. The relationship of the Mortgagee to the Mortgagor hereunder is strictly and solely that of lender and borrower and mortgagor and mortgagee and nothing contained in the Credit Agreement, this Mortgage or any other document or instrument now existing and delivered in connection therewith or otherwise in connection with the Secured Obligations is intended to create, or shall in any event or under any circumstance be construed as creating a partnership, joint venture, tenancy-in-common, joint tenancy or other relationship of any nature whatsoever between the Mortgagee and the Mortgagor other than as lender and borrower and mortgagor and mortgagee.

SECTION 11.12. No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Impositions. The Mortgagor shall not be entitled to any credit against the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Credit Agreement, and the Mortgagor shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become payable under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Property Charges on the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof.

SECTION 11.13. No Claims Against the Mortgagee. Nothing contained in this Mortgage shall constitute any consent or request by the Mortgagee, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Premises or any part thereof, nor as giving the Mortgagor any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Mortgagee in respect thereof or any claim that any Lien based on the performance of such

-23-

labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof.

SECTION 11.14. Mortgagees Right To Sever Indebtedness.

(i) The Mortgagor acknowledges that (A) the Mortgaged Property does not constitute the sole source of security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations and that the Secured Obligations are also secured by property of the Mortgagor and its Affiliates in other jurisdictions (all such property, collectively, the Collateral), (B) the number of such jurisdictions and the nature of the transaction of which this instrument is a part are such that it would have been impracticable for the parties to allocate to each item of Collateral a specific loan amount and to execute in respect of such item a separate credit agreement and (C) the Mortgagor intends that the Mortgagee have the same rights with respect to the Mortgaged Property, in foreclosure or otherwise, that the Mortgagee would have had if each item of Collateral had been secured, mortgaged or pledged pursuant to a separate credit agreement, mortgage or security instrument. In furtherance of such intent, the Mortgagor agrees that the Mortgagee may at any time by notice (an Allocation Notice) to the Mortgagor allocate a portion (the Allocated Indebtedness) of the Secured Obligations to the Mortgaged Property and sever from the remaining Secured Obligations the Allocated Indebtedness. From and after the giving of an Allocation Notice with respect to the Mortgaged Property, the Secured Obligations hereunder shall be limited to the extent set forth in the Allocation Notice and (as so limited) shall, for all purposes, be construed as a separate loan obligation of the Mortgagor unrelated to the other transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document related to any thereof. To the extent that the proceeds on any foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property shall exceed the Allocated Indebtedness, such proceeds shall belong to the Mortgagor and shall not be available hereunder to satisfy any Secured Obligations of the Mortgagor other than the Allocated Indebtedness. In any action or proceeding to foreclose the Lien hereof or in connection with any power of sale, foreclosure or other remedy exercised under this Mortgage commenced after the giving by the Mortgagee of an Allocation Notice, the Allocation Notice shall be conclusive proof of the limits of the Secured Obligations hereby secured, and the Mortgagor may introduce, by way of defense or counterclaim, evidence thereof in any such action or proceeding. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 11.14, the proceeds received by the Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage shall be applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement.

(ii) The Mortgagor hereby waives to the greatest extent permitted under law the right to a discharge of any of the Secured Obligations under any statute or rule of law now or hereafter in effect which provides that foreclosure of the Lien hereof or other remedy exercised under this Mortgage constitutes the exclusive means for satisfaction of the Secured Obligations or which makes unavailable a deficiency judgment or any subsequent remedy because the Mortgagee elected to proceed with a power of sale, foreclosure or such other remedy or because of any failure by the Mortgagee to comply with laws that prescribe conditions to the entitlement to a deficiency judgment. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, any court shall for any reason hold that the Mortgagee is not entitled to a deficiency judgment, the Mortgagor shall not (A) introduce in any other jurisdiction such judgment as a defense to enforcement against the Mortgagor of any remedy in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or (B) seek to have such judgment recognized or entered in any other jurisdiction, and

-24-

any such judgment shall in all events be limited in application only to the state or jurisdiction where rendered.

(iii) In the event any instrument in addition to the Allocation Notice is necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 11.14, including, without limitation, any amendment to this Mortgage, any substitute promissory note or affidavit or certificate of any kind, the Mortgagee may execute, deliver or record such instrument as the attorney-in-fact of the Mortgagor. Such power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 11.14 shall be effective only to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Each Pledgor hereby agrees that all certificates, agreements or instruments representing or evidencing Securities Collateral acquired by such Pledgor after the date hereof shall promptly (but in any event within thirty days after receipt thereof by such Pledgor or such longer period as may be determined by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto (provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, no such certificates, agreements or instruments representing or evidencing Securities Collateral shall be required to be so delivered to the extent such Securities Collateral constitutes Excluded Property or any certificates, agreements or instruments representing or evidencing Equity Interests in an Excluded Collateral Subsidiary which is not a Loan Party, but shall be so delivered promptly (but in any event within thirty days) following the date such Securities Collateral ceases to constitute Excluded Property or such Subsidiary ceases to qualify as an Excluded Collateral Subsidiary or otherwise becomes, or is required to become, a Loan Party pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement).

SECTION 3.4. Other Actions. In order to further ensure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, the Collateral Agents security interest in the Pledged Collateral, each Pledgor represents and warrants (as to itself) as follows and agrees, in each

case at such Pledgors own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Pledged Collateral:

(a) Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper. As of the date hereof, no amounts payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral are evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper other than such Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper listed in Schedule 11 to the Perfection Certificate and other than such Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper held by a Pledgor which do not exceed $100,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors.

As of the date hereof, such Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper and such instruments of transfer or assignment have been executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent has a perfected First Priority security interest in such Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper. If any amount then payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper, and such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper not previously delivered to the Collateral Agent exceeds $2,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors, the Pledgor acquiring such Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper shall promptly (but in any event within thirty days after receipt thereof) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time specify.

(b) Deposit Accounts. As of the date hereof, no Pledgor has any Deposit Accounts other than the accounts listed in Schedule 14 to the Perfection Certificate. With respect to each such Deposit Account, as of the date hereof, the applicable Deposit Account Control Agreement listed on Schedule 14 to the Perfection Certificate has been executed and delivered and the Collateral Agent has a First Priority security interest in each such Deposit Account (other than Excluded Deposit Accounts), which security interest is (or, with respect to any such Deposit Accounts identified on Schedule 5.15 to the Credit Agreement, after completion of the actions with respect to such Deposit Accounts specified on such Schedule, will be) perfected by Control. No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Deposit Account unless such Bank and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement with respect to such Deposit Account (other than Excluded Deposit Accounts and Deposit Accounts constituting Excluded Collateral). The Collateral Agent agrees with each Pledgor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any instructions directing the disposition of funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Pledgor with respect to funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account unless a Cash Dominion Trigger Event has occurred and no subsequent Cash Dominion Recovery Event has occurred. The two immediately preceding sentences shall not apply to any Deposit Accounts for which the Collateral Agent is the Bank. No Pledgor shall grant Control of any Deposit Account that is not an Excluded Deposit Account to any person other than (i) the Collateral Agent, (ii) subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and (iii) in respect of any Deposit Account that holds only deposits posted by customers described in clause (j) of the definition of Excluded Collateral, such customers.

(c) Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts. (i) As of the date hereof, no Pledgor has any Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts other than those listed in Schedule 14 to the Perfection Certificate. With respect to each such Securities Account and Commodities

Account, as of the date hereof, the applicable Securities Account Control Agreement or Commodities Account Control Agreement listed on Schedule 14 to the Perfection Certificate has been executed and delivered and the Collateral Agent has a First Priority security interest in each such Securities Account and Commodity Account (other than Excluded Securities Accounts, Excluded Commodities Accounts and Securities Accounts constituting Excluded Collateral), which security interest is perfected by Control. No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary unless such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such Securities Account or Commodity Account (other than Excluded Securities Accounts, Excluded Commodities Accounts and Securities Accounts constituting Excluded Collateral), as the case may be. Each Pledgor shall accept any cash and Investment Property in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and within five days of actual receipt thereof, deposit any and all cash and Investment Property received by it into a Deposit Account or Securities Account. The Collateral Agent agrees with each Pledgor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless a Cash Dominion Trigger Event has occurred and no subsequent Cash Dominion Recovery Event has occurred or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights, a Cash Dominion Trigger Event would occur. The two immediately preceding sentences shall not apply to any Financial Assets credited to a Securities Account for which the Collateral Agent or any of its affiliates is the Securities Intermediary. No Pledgor shall grant Control over any Investment Property to any person other than (i) the Collateral Agent, (ii) subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Term Loan Collateral Agent and (iii) in respect of any Deposit Account that holds only deposits posted by customers described in clause (j) of the definition of Excluded Collateral, such customers.

If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any transferable record, the Pledgor acquiring such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and shall take such action as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Collateral Agent control of such Electronic Chattel Paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC or control under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by Electronic

Chattel Paper or any transferable record in which the Collateral Agent has not been vested control within the meaning of the statutes described in the immediately preceding sentence, does not exceed $2,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors.

(e) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Pledgor is at any time a beneficiary under a Letter of Credit now or hereafter issued, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and such Pledgor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such Letter of Credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit are to be applied as provided in the Credit Agreement. The actions in the preceding sentence shall not be required to the extent that the amount of any such Letter of Credit, together with the aggregate amount of all other Letters of Credit for which the actions described above in clauses (i) and (ii) have not been taken, does not exceed $2,500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. No Pledgor shall grant Control of any Letter-of-Credit Right to any person other than the Collateral Agent and, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Term Loan Collateral Agent.

(f) Commercial Tort Claims. As of the date hereof, each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that it holds no Commercial Tort Claims other than those listed in Schedule 13 to the Perfection Certificate and other than Commercial Tort Claims which do not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that the amount of such Commercial Tort Claim, together with the amount of all other Commercial Tort Claims held by any Pledgor in which the Collateral Agent does not have a security interest, does not exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors.

(g) Landlords Access Agreements/Bailee Letters. If and to the extent reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as soon as practicable after such request with respect to each location where such Pledgor maintains Pledged Collateral, a Bailee Letter and/or Landlord Access Agreement, as applicable, and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Bailee Letter, Landlord Access Agreement and/or landlords lien waiver, as applicable, from all such bailees and landlords, as applicable, who from time to time have possession of any Pledged Collateral. A waiver of bailees lien shall not be required if the value of the Pledged Collateral held by such bailee is less than $500,000,

provided that the aggregate value of the Pledged Collateral held by all bailees who have not delivered a Bailee Letter is less than $2,500,000 in the aggregate.

SECTION 3.5. Joinder of Additional Guarantors. The Pledgors shall cause each Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower that is either (x) organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia and required to become a party to this Agreement or to otherwise pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement or (y) a Foreign Subsidiary and is required to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.11(e) of the Credit Agreement to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto within thirty days (or such longer period as may be determined by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) of the date on which it became a wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary, ceased to be an Excluded Collateral Subsidiary or was required to become a Loan Party or a party to this Agreement by operation of the provisions of Sections 5.11(b), (d) or (e) of the Credit Agreement, as the case may be, and (ii) a Perfection Certificate, in each case, within thirty days (or such longer period as may be determined by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) of the date on which it became a wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary, ceased to be an Excluded Collateral Subsidiary or was required to become a Loan Party or a party to this Agreement by operation of the provisions of Sections 5.11(b), (d) or (e) of the Credit Agreement, as the case may be, and, in each case, upon such execution and delivery, such Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute a Guarantor and a Pledgor for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor and Pledgor herein. In the case of a wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary organized outside of the United States that is required to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.11(e) of the Credit Agreement, such Restricted Subsidiary shall also execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional documentation as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request to provide for perfected and valid liens on its assets in the jurisdiction where it is organized or doing business. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement.

SECTION 3.6. Supplements; Further Assurances. Each Pledgor shall take such further actions, and execute and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional financing statements, amendments, assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may in its reasonable judgment deem necessary or appropriate in order to create, perfect, preserve and protect the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm the validity, enforceability and priority of the Collateral Agents security interest in the Pledged Collateral or permit the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral, including the filing of financing statements, continuation statements and other documents (including this Agreement) under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interest created hereby and the execution and delivery of Control Agreements, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and in such offices (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office) wherever required by law to perfect, continue and maintain the validity, enforceability and priority of the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and to preserve the other rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, as against third parties, with respect to the Pledged Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor shall make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon reasonable request by the Collateral Agent such lists, schedules, descriptions and designations of the Pledged Collateral, copies of warehouse receipts, receipts in the

All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors.

(i) Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, from any Pledgor or any other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgors premises where any of the Pledged Collateral is located, remove such Pledged Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Pledged Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of any Pledgor;

(iii) Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate and dispose of, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate and dispose of, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license, liquidation or disposition;

(iv) Take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (B) store and keep any Pledged Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent and (C) while the Pledged Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition.

Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation;

(ix) Exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor upon a default under the UCC, and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 9.2 hereof, sell, assign or grant a license to use the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, brokers board or at any of the Collateral Agents offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof payable at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against the

Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree.

SECTION 9.2. Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by law, 10 days prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition.

SECTION 9.3. Waiver of Notice and Claims. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice or judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agents taking possession or the Collateral Agents disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agents rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article IX in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor.

SECTION 9.4. Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral.

(a) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales.

(b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such

circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, cause any registration, qualification under or compliance with any federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or any part of the Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities Collateral including registration under the Securities Act (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Collateral Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, shall furnish to the Collateral Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Collateral Agent from time to time may request, and shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the Securities Collateral to indemnify the Collateral Agent and all others participating in the distribution of such Securities Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(d) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may request in order to determine the number of securities included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

(e) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 9.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 9.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 9.5. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

(a) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any

other right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. All rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise available.

(b) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all rights, remedies, privileges and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 9.6. Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of such Pledgors rights in the Intellectual Property Collateral, in recordable form with respect to those items of the Intellectual Property Collateral consisting of registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights (or applications therefor) and such other documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes hereof. Within five Business Days of written notice thereafter from the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall make available to the Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Pledgors power and authority, such personnel in such Pledgors employ on the date of the Event of Default as the Collateral Agent may reasonably designate to permit such Pledgor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold by such Pledgor under the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights of such Pledgor, and such persons shall be available to perform their prior functions on the Collateral Agents behalf.

ARTICLE X

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

SECTION 10.1. Application of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 11.1. Concerning Collateral Agent.

(a) The Collateral Agent has been appointed as collateral agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The actions of the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices,

to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking action (including the release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Collateral Agent may resign and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Collateral Agents resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent.

(b) The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it being understood that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Pledged Collateral.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

(d) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 11.17 and 11.18 hereof, if any item of Pledged Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, shall select which provision or provisions shall control.

(e) The Collateral Agent may rely on advice of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements of the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of any of the changes described in Section 5.13 of the Credit Agreement. If any Pledgor fails to provide information to the Collateral Agent about such changes on a timely basis, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a perfected security interest in such Pledgors property constituting Pledged Collateral, for which the Collateral Agent needed to have information relating to such changes. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any Pledgor does not inform the Collateral Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any Pledgor.

SECTION 11.2. Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgors covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies

hereunder, (ii) pay and discharge any taxes, assessments and special assessments, levies, fees and governmental charges imposed upon or assessed against, and landlords, carriers, mechanics, workmens, repairmens, laborers, materialmens, suppliers and warehousemens Liens and other claims arising by operation of law against, all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, Lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.03 of the Credit Agreement. Neither the provisions of this Section 11.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agents discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the other Security Documents which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof (but the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to and shall have no liability to such Pledgor or any third party for failure to so do or take action). The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

SECTION 11.3. Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Each of the Pledgors agrees that its obligations hereunder and the security interest created hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as applicable, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of all or any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Pledgor or otherwise.

SECTION 11.4. Termination; Release. Upon Full Payment of the Secured Obligations, this Agreement shall terminate. Upon termination of this Agreement the Pledged Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement. Upon such release or any release of Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement), assign, transfer and deliver to the relevant Pledgor, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent except as to the fact that the Collateral Agent has not encumbered the released assets, such of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied

pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, proper documents and instruments (including any necessary UCC-3 termination financing statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be, in each case pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 11.5. Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof in each case shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 11.6. Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Credit Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Credit Agreement, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Administrative Borrower set forth in the Credit Agreement and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 11.6.

SECTION 11.7. Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. Sections 11.09 and 11.10 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein, mutatis mutandis, as if a part hereof.

SECTION 11.8. Severability of Provisions.

SECTION 11.9. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

SECTION 11.11. No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Imposition. Such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Credit Agreement, and such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may

become payable under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Tax on the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof.

SECTION 11.12. No Claims Against Collateral Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute any consent or request by the Collateral Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Collateral Agent in respect thereof or any claim that any Lien based on the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof.

SECTION 11.13. No Release. Nothing set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the rights or remedies hereunder, shall relieve any Pledgor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgors part to be performed or observed under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or from any liability to any person under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgors part to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of such Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under or in respect of the Pledged Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith.

(vi) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor.

SECTION 11.15. INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT GOVERNS.

Re: [______________]

[__________] (the Bailor), a [__________] and a subsidiary of Novelis Inc. (the Parent Borrower), now does or hereafter may deliver to certain premises [managed][owned] by [_____________] (the Bailee), a [__________], on behalf of the Bailor as owner and located at [__________] (the Premises), certain of its [DESCRIBE PROPERTY SUBJECT TO BAILMENT] for [DESCRIBE PURPOSE FOR WHICH PROPERTY HAS BEEN DELIVERED TO BAILEE].

The Parent Borrower and certain of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the Borrowers) have entered into financing arrangements with certain financial institutions (the Lenders), pursuant to a Credit Agreement, dated as of December 17, 2010 (as amended, restated, supplemented, extended, renewed, refunded, replaced, refinanced or otherwise modified from time to time in one or more agreements, the Credit Agreement) for which Bank of America, N.A. shall act as administrative agent and collateral agent (collectively in such capacities, the Agent). As a condition to the Agents and the Lenders loans and other financial accommodations to the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders require, among other things, liens on all of the Bailors property located on the Premises, and the proceeds thereof (the Collateral). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

To induce the Agent and the Lenders (together with their respective agents and assigns) to enter into said financing arrangements, and for other good and valuable consideration, the Bailee hereby acknowledges receipt of the above notice, and hereby further agrees that:

(i) title to the Collateral remains with the Bailor while the Collateral is in the custody, control or possession of the Bailee, the undersigned, to the best of its knowledge without special inquiry, does not know of any security interest or claim with respect to such goods or proceeds, other than the security interest which is the subject of this letter agreement, and the Bailee will not assert against the Collateral any lien, right of distraint or levy, right of offset, claim, deduction, counterclaim, security or other interest in the Collateral, including any of the foregoing which might arise or exist in its favor pursuant to any agreement, common law, statute (including the Federal Bankruptcy Code) or otherwise, all of which the undersigned hereby subordinates in favor of the Agent;

(ii) the Collateral shall be clearly identified or identifiable as being owned by the Bailor and is distinguishable from the property of the Bailee and other property in its possession;

(iii) none of the Collateral located on the Premises shall be permitted to become a fixture to the Premises;

(iv) the Bailee has not issued, and shall not issue, any negotiable documents or other negotiable instruments in respect of any Collateral;

(v) if any Borrower defaults on its obligations to the Agent and the Lenders, subject to any grace period, and, as a result, the Agent undertakes to enforce its security interest in the Collateral, the Bailee, upon receipt of reasonable written confirmation of the currency and existence of a default (a) will hold the Collateral for the Agents account for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and release the Collateral only to the Agent or its designee, (b) will permit the Agent to enter the Premises upon reasonable notice and during regular business hours and without unduly interrupting the Bailees operations, to inspect, assemble, take possession of, and remove all of the Collateral located on the Premises and will reasonably cooperate with the Agent in its efforts to do so; (c) will permit the Collateral to remain on the Premises for forty-five (45) days after the Agent notifies the Bailee in writing of the default, or, at the Agents option, to remove the Collateral from the Premises within a reasonable time, not to exceed forty-five (45) days after the Agent notifies the undersigned in writing of the default; (d) will not hinder the Agents actions in enforcing its liens on the Collateral; and (e) after the Agent notifies the Bailee in writing of the default, will, without further consent or agreement of the Bailor, abide solely by Agents lawful instructions with respect to the Collateral, and not those of the Bailor; and

(vi) the Bailee hereby waives and releases, for Agents benefit, any and all claims, liens, including bailees liens, and demands of every kind which Bailee has or may later have against the Collateral (including any right to include such goods in any secured financing to which Bailee may become party).

The Bailee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes Agent (or its designee) to file at any time prior to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in any jurisdiction and with such filing offices as the Agent so chooses such financing statements naming the Bailee as the debtor consignee, the Bailor as the secured party consignor, and the Agent as assignee, describing the Collateral in a manner that Agent believes is reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its security interest in the Bailors property, and including any other information with respect to the Bailee required under the Uniform Commercial Code for the sufficiency of such financing statement or for it to be accepted by the filing office of any applicable jurisdiction (and any amendments or continuations with respect thereto); provided, however, Agent shall provide to Bailor for review copies of any such filings to be made, sufficiently in advance of filing and once filed, final copies of such filings.

{ PAGE |42-

Any notice(s) required or desired to be given hereunder shall be directed to the party to be notified at the address stated herein.

The agreements contained herein shall continue in force until each Borrowers obligations and liabilities to the Agent and the Lenders are paid and satisfied in full and all financing arrangements among the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrowers have been terminated.

The consent of the Bailor hereto constitutes its acknowledgment that Agent may assert any of the rights set forth or referred to herein, without objection by the Bailor, and that the Bailee may act in accordance with this letter agreement without liability to the Bailor. By its signature below, the Bailor agrees to reimburse the Bailee for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Bailee as a direct result of compliance with this letter agreement.

The Bailee will notify all successor owners, transferees, purchasers and mortgagees of the Premises of the existence of this waiver. The agreements contained herein may not be modified or terminated orally and shall be binding upon the successors, assigns and personal representatives of the undersigned.

Section 2.4 Scope of Security Interest.

(1)

To the extent that an assignment of amounts payable and other proceeds arising under or in connection with, or the grant of a security interest in any agreement, licence, lease, permit or quota of any Obligor would constitute a default under or a breach of or would result in the termination or loss of rights in respect of such agreement, licence, lease, permit or quota (each, a Restricted Asset), the Security Interest with respect to each Restricted Asset will constitute a trust created in favour of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to which the applicable Obligor holds as trustee all proceeds arising under or in connection with the Restricted Asset in trust for the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on the following basis:

	(a)		subject to the Credit Agreement, until the Security Interest is enforceable the Obligor is entitled to receive all such proceeds; and

	(b)		whenever the Security Interest is enforceable, (i) all rights of such Obligor to receive such proceeds cease and all such proceeds will be immediately paid over to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and (ii) such Obligor will take all actions requested by the Collateral Agent to collect and enforce payment and other rights arising under the Restricted Asset.

		Upon request by the Collateral Agent, the Obligors will use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of each other party to any and all Restricted Assets to the assignment of such Restricted Asset to the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Agreement. The Obligors will also use all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that all agreements entered into on and after the date of this Agreement expressly permit assignments of the benefits of such agreements as collateral security to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(2)		The Security Interest with respect to trade-marks and other Intellectual Property established under the laws of the United States, including any state, territory or political subdivision thereof, constitutes a lien on and security interest in, and a charge, hypothecation and pledge of, such Collateral in favour of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, but does not constitute an assignment or mortgage of such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party.

- 11 -

(3)		Until the Security Interest is enforceable, the grant of the Security Interest in the Intellectual Property does not affect in any way the Obligors rights to commercially exploit the Intellectual Property, defend it, enforce such Obligors rights in it or with respect to it against third parties in any court or claim and be entitled to receive any damages with respect to any infringement of it.

(4)		The Security Interest does not extend to consumer goods or ULC Shares.

(5)		The Security Interest does not extend or apply to the last day of the term of any lease or sublease of real property or any agreement for a lease or sublease of real property, now held or hereafter acquired by any of the Obligors, but the Obligors will stand possessed of any such last day upon trust to assign and dispose of it as the Collateral Agent may reasonably direct.

(6)		The Security Interest does not extend to Excluded Property.

Section 2.5 Grant of Licence to Use Intellectual Property.

Each Obligor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent an irrevocable, nonexclusive licence (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Obligor) to use, or sublicense any Intellectual Property in which such Obligor has rights wherever the same may be located, provided that the quality of products in connection with which any trade-mark is used will not be materially inferior to the quality of such products prior to such Event of Default. Such licence includes access to (i) all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored, and (ii) all software and computer programs used for compilation or print-out. The license granted under this Section is to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise its rights and remedies under Article 3 and for no other purpose.

Section 2.6 Care and Custody of Collateral.

(1)		The Secured Parties have no obligation to keep Collateral in their possession identifiable.

(2)		The Collateral Agent may upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) notify any Person obligated on an Instrument, Security or account to make payments to the Collateral Agent, whether or not the Obligors were previously making collections on such accounts, chattel paper, instruments, and (ii) assume control of any proceeds arising from the Collateral.

(3)		The Collateral Agent has no obligation to collect dividends, distributions or interest payable on, or exercise any option or right in connection with, any Securities or Instruments. The Collateral Agent has no obligation to protect or preserve any Securities or Instruments from depreciating in value or becoming worthless and is released from all responsibility for any loss of

- 12 -

value. In the physical keeping of any Securities, the Collateral Agent is only obliged to exercise the same degree of care as it would exercise with respect to its own Securities kept at the same place.

(4)

The Collateral Agent may, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, sell, transfer, use or otherwise deal with any investment property included in the Collateral over which the Collateral Agent has control, on such conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion may determine.

Section 2.7 Rights of the Obligor.

(1)		Until the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, each Obligor, as applicable, is entitled to vote the Securities and other financial assets that are part of the Collateral and to receive dividends and distributions on such Securities and financial assets, as may be permitted by the Credit Agreement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all rights of the Obligors to vote (under any proxy given by the Collateral Agent (or its nominee) or otherwise) or to receive distributions or dividends cease and all such rights become vested solely and absolutely in the Collateral Agent.

(2)		Any distributions or dividends received by any of the Obligors contrary to Section 2.7(1) or any other moneys or property received by any of the Obligors after the Security Interest is enforceable will be received as trustee for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and shall be immediately paid over to the Collateral Agent.

Section 2.8 Expenses.

(1)		All Taxes and Other Taxes, charges, costs, and expenses (including legal fees and notarial fees) including withholding taxes, relating to, resulting from, or otherwise connected with, this Agreement, the execution, amendment and/or the enforcement of this Agreement shall, for greater certainty be for the account of the applicable Obligor and all shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 5.3 No Merger, Survival of Representations and Warranties.

This Agreement does not operate by way of merger of any of the Secured Obligations and no judgment recovered by the Collateral Agent or any of the Secured Parties will operate by way of merger of, or in any way affect, the Security Interest, which is in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other security now or hereafter held by the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties in respect of the Secured Obligations. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Obligors in this Agreement survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any advances under the Credit Agreement.

In any action brought by an assignee to enforce any such right or remedy, the Obligors will not assert against the assignee any claim or defence which the Obligors now have or may have against the Collateral Agent or any of the Secured Parties.

This Agreement may only be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified by written agreement executed by the Collateral Agent and the Obligors.

Section 5.10 Waivers, etc.

(1)		No consent or waiver by the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties in respect of this Agreement is binding unless made in writing and signed by an authorized officer of the Collateral Agent. Any consent or waiver given under this Agreement is effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement constitutes a waiver of any other provision.

(2)		A failure or delay on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties in exercising a right under this Agreement does not operate as a waiver of, or impair, any right of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties however arising. A single or partial exercise of a right on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties does not preclude any other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right by the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties.

(1)		Subject to Subsection (2) below, in the event of a direct conflict between the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement and the terms and provisions contained in the Credit Agreement, it is the intentions of the parties hereto that such terms and provisions in such documents shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement shall control and govern.

Section 3.5 Assignment and Postponement.

(1)

All obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of the Borrowers, or any of them, to the Guarantors, or any of them, of any nature whatsoever and all security therefor (the Intercorporate Indebtedness) are assigned and transferred to the Collateral Agent as continuing and collateral security for the applicable Guarantors obligations under this Guarantee and postponed to the payment in full of all Obligations. Until the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing, the Guarantors may receive payments in respect of the Intercorporate Indebtedness as permitted under the Credit Agreement. The Guarantors will not assign all or any part of the Intercorporate Indebtedness to any Person other than the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties.

(2)

Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all Intercorporate Indebtedness will be held in trust for the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent and will be collected, enforced or proved subject to, and for the purpose of, this Guarantee. In such event, any payments received by any Guarantor in respect of Intercorporate Indebtedness will be held in trust for the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent and segregated from other funds and property held by such Guarantor and immediately paid to the Collateral Agent on account of the Obligations.

(3)

Intercorporate Indebtedness shall not be released or withdrawn by any Guarantor without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. Such Guarantor will not allow a limitation period to expire on the Intercorporate Indebtedness or ask for or obtain any security or negotiable paper for, or other evidence of, the Intercorporate Indebtedness except for the purpose of delivering the same to the Collateral Agent.

(4)

In the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy or other proceeding involving the liquidation, arrangement, compromise, reorganization or other relief with respect to any of the Borrowers or their debts, each of the Guarantors will, upon the request of the Collateral Agent, make and present a proof of claim or commence such other proceedings against such Borrower on account of the Intercorporate Indebtedness as may be reasonably necessary to establish such Guarantors entitlement to payment of any Intercorporate Indebtedness. Such proof of claim or other proceeding must be made or commenced prior to the earlier of (i) the day which is 30 days after notice requesting such action is delivered by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent to such Guarantor and (ii) the day which is 10 days preceding the date when such proof of claim or other proceeding is required by applicable law to be made or commenced. Such proof of claim or other proceeding must be in form and substance acceptable to the Collateral Agent.

-8-

(5)

If any Guarantor fails to make and file such proof of claim or commence such other proceeding in accordance with this Section 3.5, the Collateral Agent is irrevocably authorized, empowered and directed and appointed the true and lawful attorney of such Guarantor (but is not obliged): (i) to make and present for and on behalf of such Guarantor proofs of claims or other such proceedings against such Borrower on account of the Intercorporate Indebtedness, (ii) to demand, sue for, receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements made in respect of the Intercorporate Indebtedness in whatever form the same may be paid or issued and to apply the same on account of the Obligations, and (iii) to demand, sue for, collect and receive each such payment and distribution and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and take such other actions, in its own name or in the name of such Guarantor or otherwise, as the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to enforce its rights under this Guarantee.

(6)

Each of the Guarantors will execute all subordinations, postponements, assignments and other agreements as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to more effectively subordinate and postpone the Intercorporate Indebtedness to the payment and performance of the Obligations.

(7)

The provisions of this Section 3.5 survive the termination of this Guarantee and remain in full force and effect until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Secured Obligations.

Section 3.6 Suspension of Guarantor Rights.

Prior to the occurrence of the Discharge of Revolving Credit Secured Obligations, no Guarantor will exercise any rights which it may at any time have by reason of the performance of any of its obligations under this Guarantee (i) to be indemnified by the Borrowers, (ii) to claim contribution from any other guarantor of the debts, liabilities or obligations of the Borrowers, or (iii) subject to Section 3.8, to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Secured Parties or the Collateral Agent under any of the Loan Documents.

Section 3.7 No Prejudice to Secured Parties or Collateral Agent.

The Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent are not prejudiced in any way in the right to enforce any provision of this Guarantee by any act or failure to act on the part of the Borrowers, the Secured Parties or the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties may, at any time and from time to time, in such manner as any of them may determine is expedient, without any consent of, or notice to, the Guarantors and without impairing or releasing the obligations of the Guarantors (i) change the manner, place, time or terms of payment or performance

-9-

of the Obligations, (ii) renew or alter the Obligations, (iii) amend, vary, modify, supplement or replace any Loan Document or any other related document or instrument, (iv) discontinue, reduce, renew, increase, abstain from renewing or otherwise vary any credit or credit facilities to, any transaction with, the Borrowers or any other Person, (v) release, compound or vary the liability of the Borrowers or any other Person liable in any manner under or in respect of the Obligations, (vi) take or abstain from taking securities or collateral from any other Person, or from perfecting securities or collateral of any other Person, (vii) exercise or enforce or refrain from exercising or enforcing any right or security against the Borrowers, the Guarantors or any other Person, (viii) accept compromises or arrangement from any Person, (ix) apply any sums from time to time received to the Obligations, or any part thereof, and change any such application in whole or in part from time to time, (x) otherwise deal with, or waiver or modify their right to deal with, any Person and security. In their dealings with the Borrowers, the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties need not enquire into the authority or power of any Person purporting to act for or on behalf of the Borrowers or any one of them.

Section 3.8 No Subrogation

Each of the Guarantors irrevocably waives any claim, remedy or other right which it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Borrowers that arises from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantors obligations under this Guarantee, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification or any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Secured Parties or the Collateral Agent against the Borrowers or any collateral which the Secured Parties or the Collateral Agent now have or hereafter acquire, whether or not such claim, remedy or other right is reduced to judgment or is liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured, and whether or not such claim, remedy or other right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that each of the Borrowers are an intended third party beneficiary of such Guarantors waiver contained in this Section 3.8. If any amount is paid to any Guarantor in violation of this Section 3.8 and, at such time, the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agents claims against the Borrowers in respect of the Obligations have not been paid in full, any amount paid to any of the Guarantors is deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent, and will immediately be paid to the Collateral Agent to be credited and applied to such Obligations. Each of the Guarantors acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by this Guarantee and that the waiver in this Section 3.8 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

-10-

Section 3.9 No Set-off.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Guarantors makes all payments under this Guarantee without regard to any defence, counter-claim or right of set-off available to it.

Section 3.10 Successors of the Borrowers.

This Guarantee will not be revoked by any change in the constitution of any of the Borrowers. This Guarantee and the Guarantor Security Documents extend to any person, firm or corporation acquiring, or from time to time carrying on, the business of any of the Borrowers.

Section 3.11 Continuing Guarantee and Continuing Obligations.

The obligation of each of the Guarantors under Section 2.1 is a continuing guarantee, and the obligations of each of the Guarantors under Section 2.2 and Section 2.3 are continuing obligations. Each of Section 2.1, Section 2.2 and Section 2.3 extends to all present and future Obligations, applies to and secures the ultimate balance of the Obligations due or remaining due to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and is binding as a continuing obligation of each of the Guarantors until the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties release such Guarantor. This Guarantee will continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Secured Parties or the Collateral Agent upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Borrowers or otherwise, all as though the payment had not been made.

Section 3.12 Supplemental Security.

This Guarantee is in addition and without prejudice to and supplemental to all other guarantees, indemnities, obligations and security now held or which may hereafter be held by the Secured Parties or the Collateral Agent.

Section 3.13 Security for Guarantee.

Each of the Guarantors acknowledges that this Guarantee is intended to secure payment and performance of the Obligations and that the payment and performance of the Obligations and the other obligations of each of the Guarantors under this Guarantee are secured pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Guarantor Security Documents.

Section 3.14 Right of Set-off.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent and each of the Secured Parties are authorized by each of the Guarantors at any time and from time to time and may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time

-11-

owing by the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties to or for the credit or the account of any of the Guarantors against any and all of the obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing irrespective of whether or not (i) the Secured Parties or the Collateral Agent have made any demand under this Guarantee, or (ii) any of the obligations comprising the Obligations are contingent or unmatured. The rights of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties under this Section 3.14 are in addition and without prejudice to and supplemental to other rights and remedies which the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties may have.

Section 3.15 Interest Act (Canada).

Each of the Guarantors acknowledges that certain of the rates of interest applicable to the Obligations may be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), whenever any interest is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, such rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate is equivalent to (i) the applicable rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, (ii) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for such interest is payable (or compounded) ends, and (iii) divided by 360 or 365, as the case may be.

Section 3.16 Taxes.

The provisions of Sections 2.12 (with respect to Taxes) and 2.15 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated, mutatis mutandi, and shall apply to this Guarantee, the Guarantors, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent as if set forth herein.

Section 3.17 Judgment Currency.

(1)

If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert all or any part of the Obligations or any other amount due to a Secured Party or the Collateral Agent in respect of any Guarantors obligations under this Guarantee in any currency (the Original Currency) into another currency (the Other Currency), each of the Guarantors, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, agrees that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Secured Party or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is paid or satisfied.

(2)

The obligations of each of the Guarantors in respect of any sum due in the Original Currency from it to any Secured Party or the Collateral Agent shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Secured Party

-12-

or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency such Secured Party or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may, in accordance with its normal banking procedures, purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency. If the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Secured Party in the Original Currency, each of the Guarantors agrees, as separate obligations and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Secured Party or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Secured Party or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in the Original Currency, the Secured Party or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the applicable Guarantor.

Section 4.2 No Merger, Survival of Representations and Warranties.

The representations, warranties and covenants of each of the Guarantors in this Guarantee survive the execution and delivery of this Guarantee and each advance under the Credit Agreement.

(2)

Each of the Guarantors acknowledges and confirms that it has established its own adequate means of obtaining from the Borrowers on a continuing basis all information desired by such Guarantor concerning the financial condition of the Borrowers and that it will look to the Borrowers and not to the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties, in order to keep adequately informed of changes in the Borrowers financial condition.

Section 4.4 Successors and Assigns.

This Guarantee is binding upon each of the Guarantors, their respective successors and permitted assigns, and enures to the benefit of the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent and their respective successors and assigns. This Guarantee may be assigned by the Collateral Agent without the consent of, or notice to, the Guarantors, to such Person as the Collateral Agent may determine and, in such event, such Person will be entitled to all of the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent as set forth in this Guarantee or otherwise. In any action brought by an assignee to enforce any such right or remedy, no Guarantor will assert against the assignee any claim or defence which such Guarantor now has or may have against the Collateral Agent or any of the Secured Parties. No Guarantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of their rights or obligations under this Guarantee without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent which may be unreasonably withheld.

No waiver of any of the provisions of this Guarantee constitutes a waiver of any other provision.

(2)

A failure or delay on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties in exercising a right under this Guarantee does not operate as a waiver of, or impair, any right of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties however arising. A single or partial exercise of a right on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties does not preclude any other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right by the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties.

Section 4.7 Severability.

If any court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal exists or is taken, determines that any provision of this Guarantee is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be severed from this Guarantee and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

-14-

Section 4.8 Collateral Agent.

By accepting the benefits of this Guarantee, the Secured Parties agree that this Guarantee may be enforced only by the action of the Collateral Agent and that no other Secured Party shall have any right individually to seek to enforce this Guarantee or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the Credit Agreement.

Section 4.9 Application of Proceeds.

All monies collected by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party under this Guarantee will be applied as provided in the Credit Agreement.

Section 6 Effectiveness and Attachment.

(1)		The Security is effective whether or not any monies or liabilities so secured are advanced or incurred before or after or at the same time as this Debenture is issued. The Security will remain effective until such time as this Debenture is discharged as provided in Section 20, irrespective of whether, at any prior time, there may have been no indebtedness, liabilities or obligations (direct, indirect, absolute, contingent or otherwise) of the Obligor to the Holder outstanding.

(2)		The Obligor acknowledges that (i) value has been given, (ii) it has rights in the Charged Premises (other than after-acquired Charged Premises), (iii) it has not agreed to postpone the time of attachment of the Security and (iv) it has received a copy of this Debenture.

Section 7 Scope of Security.

(1)

To the extent that an assignment of amounts payable and other proceeds arising under or in connection with, or the grant of a security interest in any agreement, lease, licence, permit or quota of the Obligor would constitute a default under or breach of or would result in the termination of such agreement, lease, licence, permit or quota (each, a Restricted Asset), the Security with respect to each Restricted Asset will constitute a trust created in favour of the Holder, pursuant to which the Obligor holds as trustee all proceeds arising under or in connection with the Restricted Asset in trust for the Holder, on the following basis:

	(a)		until the Security is enforceable, the Obligor is entitled to receive all such proceeds; and

	(b)		whenever the Security is enforceable, (i) all rights of the Obligor to receive such proceeds cease and all such proceeds will be immediately paid over to the Holder and (ii) the Obligor will take all actions requested by the Holder to collect and enforce payment and other rights arising under the Restricted Asset.

(2)

Upon the request of the Holder, the Obligor will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of each other party to any and all Restricted Assets to the assignment of such Restricted Asset to the Holder in accordance with this Debenture. The Obligor will also use all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that all agreements entered into on and after the date of this Debenture expressly permit assignments of the benefits of such agreements as collateral security to the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Debenture.

Section 8 Protective Disbursements.

If the Obligor fails to perform any of its covenants in this Debenture, then the Holder may, in its absolute discretion, perform any covenant capable of being performed by it and, if the covenant requires the payment or expenditure of money, the Holder may make the payment but is under no obligation to do so. All sums paid or expended by the Holder are immediately payable by the Obligor, bear interest at the rate set forth in this Debenture and are secured by this Debenture, having the benefit of the Security in priority to the indebtedness evidenced by this Debenture. No such performance or payment will relieve the Obligor from any default under this Debenture or the consequences of such default.

Section 9 Covenants.

The Obligor will not sell, assign, convey, exchange, lease, charge, mortgage, pledge, release or abandon or otherwise dispose of any Charged Premises or any interest therein except as permitted by the Holder in writing. The Obligor will not create or suffer to exist any Lien on the Charged Premises, except as permitted by the Holder in writing and shall discharge any such Lien which is not so permitted forthwith. The Obligor will immediately upon demand by the Holder, create and grant as and by way of a fixed and specific mortgage and charge to and in favour of the Holder, further security over any of the Charged Premises referred to in Section 5.

Section 10 Enforcement.

	(d)		The fact that no or incomplete details of any Security Asset are inserted in Schedule 1 (Security Assets) does not affect the validity or enforceability of this Security.

2.2		Credit balances

		The Chargor charges by way of a fixed charge all of its rights in respect of each amount standing to the credit of each Security Account and the debt represented by that account, other than any account the subject of a Security Interest in favour of any other person in accordance with the terms set out in section 6.02(y) of the Credit Agreement.

	(iii)		upon the occurrence of any analogous event in any jurisdiction.

	(f)		The giving by the Collateral Agent of a notice under paragraph (b) above in relation to any asset of the Chargor will not be construed as a waiver or abandonment of the Collateral Agents rights to give any other notice in respect of any other asset or of any other right of any other Secured Party under this Deed or any other Loan Document.

	(g)		Any charge which has been converted into a fixed charge in accordance with paragraphs (b) or (d) above may, by notice in writing given at any time by the Collateral Agent to the Chargor, be reconverted into a floating charge in relation to the Security Assets specified in such notice.

(ii)

any loans provided to the Chargor by a direct or indirect shareholder or an affiliate thereof (other than a Subsidiary of the Chargor) shall be disregarded and not accounted for as a liability to the extent that such loans are subordinated pursuant to Section 39(1) Nr. 1 through Nr. 5 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) or subordinated in any other way by law or contract;

(iii)

any shareholder loans, other loans and contractual obligations and liabilities incurred by the Chargor in violation of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents shall be disregarded and not accounted for as liabilities;

The limitations set out in Clause 9.7(a) only apply:

(i)

if and to the extent that the managing directors of the Chargor have confirmed in writing to the Collateral Agent within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the Realisation Notice or the commencement of enforcement under this Deed the value of the Security which cannot be enforced without causing the net assets of the Chargor to fall below its registered share capital, or increase an existing shortage in net assets below its registered share capital (taking into account the adjustments set out above) and such confirmation is supported by a current balance sheet and other evidence satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties raises any objections against that confirmation within five (5) Business Days after its receipt; or

(ii)

if, within twenty (20) Business Days after an objection under paragraph 9(b)(ii) has been raised by the Collateral Agent or a Secured Party, the Collateral Agent receives a written audit report (Auditors Determination) prepared at the expense of the Chargor by a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation that is appointed by the Chargor and reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, to the extent such report identifies the amount by which the net assets of the Chargor are necessary to maintain its registered share capital as at the date of the Realisation Notice or the commencement of enforcement (taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Auditors Determination shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer Buchführung) as consistently applied by the Chargor in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet. The Auditors Determination shall be binding for all Parties except for manifest error.

(c)

In any event, the Collateral Agent, for and on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled to enforce the Security up to those amounts that are undisputed between them and the Chargor or determined in accordance with Clause 9.7(a) and Clause 9.7(b). In respect of the exceeding amounts, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to further pursue their claims (if any) and the Chargor shall be entitled to provide evidence that the excess amounts are necessary to maintain its registered share capital (calculated as at the date of the Realisation Notice or the

commencement of enforcement and taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Secured Parties are entitled to pursue those parts of the Security that are not enforced by operation of Clause 9.7(a) above at any subsequent point in time. This Clause shall apply again as of the time such additional enforcements are made.

(d)

Clause 9.7(a) shall not apply as to the amount of loans borrowed and passed on (whether by way of shareholder loan or equity contribution) to the Chargor or any of its Subsidiaries as long as the respective shareholder loan is outstanding or the respective equity contribution has not been dissolved or otherwise repaid but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any purchase price payment received by the Chargor under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

(e)

The limitations provided for in Clause 9.7(a) above shall not apply where (i) the Chargor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) recourse claim (Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) vis-à-vis the relevant shareholder or (ii) a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) or a profit and loss pooling agreement (Gewinnabführungsvertrag) is or will be in existence with the Chargor and the Chargor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) compensation claim (Ausgleichsanspruch).

(f)

Should it become legally permissible for managing directors of a German GmbH (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, Limited Liability Company) to enter into guarantees in support of obligations of their shareholders without limitations, the limitations set forth in Clause 9.7(a) shall no longer apply. Should any such guarantees become subject to legal restrictions that are less stringent than the limitations set forth in Clause 9.7(a) above, such less stringent limitations shall apply. Otherwise, Clause 9.7(a) shall remain unaffected by changes in applicable law.

3.1		Subject to Clause 3.2 through Clause 3.6 below, the Collateral Agent shall not enforce the collateral granted under this Agreement (the Collateral) to the extent (i) the Collateral secures obligations of one of the Assignors shareholders or of an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of a shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (other than a Subsidiary of the Assignor or the Assignor itself), and (ii) the enforcement of the Collateral for such obligations would reduce, in violation of Section 30 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbHG), the net assets (assets minus liabilities minus provisions and liability reserves (Reinvermögen), in each case as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) as consistently applied by the Assignor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluß gemäß § 42 GmbHG, ff 242, 264 HGB)) of the Assignor to an amount that is insufficient to maintain its registered share capital (Stammkapital) (or would increase an existing shortage in its net assets below its registered share capital); provided that for the purpose of determining the relevant registered share capital and the net assets, as the case may be:

3.1.1		the amount of any increase of the Assignors registered share capital (Stammkapital) implemented after the date of this Agreement that is effected without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent shall be deducted from the registered share capital of the Assignor;

3.1.2		any loans provided to the Assignor by a direct or indirect shareholder or an affiliate thereof (other than a Subsidiary of the Assignor) shall be disregarded and not accounted for as a

8/21

Assignment Agreement (Novelis Deutschland GmbH)

		liability to the extent that such loans are subordinated pursuant to Section 39(1) Nr. 1 through Nr. 5 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) or subordinated in any other way by law or contract;

3.1.3		any shareholder loans, other loans and contractual obligations and liabilities incurred by the Assignor in violation of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents shall be disregarded and not accounted for as liabilities;

3.1.4		any assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value that, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, is significantly lower than their market value and that are not necessary for the business of the Assignor (nicht betriebsnotwendig) shall be accounted for with their market value; and

3.1.5		the assets of the Assignor will be assessed at liquidation values (Liquidationswerte) if, at the time the managing directors prepare the balance sheet in accordance with paragraph (b) below and absent the demand a positive going concern prognosis (positive Fortbestehensprognose) cannot be established.

3.2		The limitations set out in Clause 3.1 only apply:

3.2.1		if and to the extent that the managing directors of the Assignor have confirmed in writing to the Collateral Agent within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the request to realize the Collateral or the commencement of enforcement under this Agreement the value of the Collateral which cannot be enforced without causing the net assets of the Assignor to fall below its registered share capital, or increase an existing shortage in net assets below its registered share capital (taking into account the adjustments set out above) and such confirmation is supported by a current balance sheet and other evidence satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties raises any objections against that confirmation within five (5) Business Days after its receipt; or

3.2.2		if, within twenty (20) Business Days after an objection under paragraph (A) has been raised by the Collateral Agent or a Secured Party, the Collateral Agent receives a written audit report (Auditors Determination) prepared at the expense of the Assignor by a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation that is appointed by the Assignor and reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, to the extent such report identifies the amount by which the net assets of the Assignor are necessary to maintain its registered share capital as at the date of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement (taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Auditors Determination shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer Buchführung) as consistently applied by the Assignor in the preparation of

9/21

Assignment Agreement (Novelis Deutschland GmbH)

		its most recent annual balance sheet. The Auditors Determination shall be binding for all Parties except for manifest error.

3.3		In any event, the Collateral Agent, for and on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled to enforce the Collateral up to those amounts that are undisputed between them and the Assignor or determined in accordance with Clause 3.1 and Clause 3.2. In respect of the exceeding amounts, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to further pursue the Secured Parties claims (if any) and the Assignor shall be entitled to provide evidence that the excess amounts are necessary to maintain its registered share capital (calculated as at the date of the receipt of the request to realize the Collateral or the commencement of enforcement and taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Collateral Agent is entitled to pursue those parts of the Collateral that are not enforced by operation of Clause 3.1 above at any subsequent point in time.

2.6		The Pledges created hereunder shall rank ahead of any other security interest or third party right currently in existence or created in the future over any of the Accounts, including the Account Banks pledges.

2.7		Each of the Pledges is in addition, and without prejudice, to any other security the Pledgees may now or hereafter hold in respect of the Secured Obligations.

2.8		For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that nothing in this Agreement shall exclude a transfer of all or part of the Pledges created hereunder by operation of law upon the transfer or assignment (including by way of novation or assumption (Vertragsübernahme)) of all or part of the Secured Obligations by any Pledgee to a Future Pledgee.

3.		SECURED OBLIGATIONS

3.1		The security created hereunder secures the payment of all Secured Obligations. The Pledgor hereby expressly agrees that the provisions of Section 1210 para. 1 sentence 2 of the German Civil Code shall not apply to this Agreement.

3.2		The Pledgees hereby agree, for the benefit of the pledgees (the Term Loan Account Pledgees) under the account pledge agreement among, inter alios, Bank of America, N.A. as collateral agent under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Pledgor dated on or around the date hereof (the Term Loan Account Pledge Agreement) (echter Vertrag zu Gunsten Dritter), that any security over any Pari Passu Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) granted hereunder shall rank in personam (schuldrechtlich) vis-a-vis the Term

		Loan Account Pledgees (inter partes) behind any security over any Pari Passu Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) granted under the Term Loan Account Pledge Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

4.		DISPOSALS OVER ACCOUNTS

4.1		In relation to the Account Banks, the Pledgor shall be authorized to dispose over (verfügen) its respective Accounts in the ordinary course of business. This authorization shall, in particular, include the right to withdraw and transfer funds from its respective Accounts. The Accounts may only be closed to the extent and under the conditions permitted under the ABL Credit Agreement and (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as permitted in connection with any changes to the Cash Pooling Arrangements). The Pledgees, acting through the Collateral Agent, shall be entitled to revoke the authorization granted under this Clause 4 at any time after any of the events described in Clauses 5.1 or 5.4 has occurred.

4.2		Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, unremedied and unwaived, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Pledgees, shall irrevocably and at any and all times be entitled to (i) notify each Account Bank of the forthcoming enforcement of the Pledges and (ii) instruct each and every Account Bank that as of receipt of such notice it shall no longer allow any dispositions by the Pledgor over any amounts standing to the credit on the respective Account. The Collateral Agent shall notify the Pledgor accordingly.

5.		REALISATION OF THE PLEDGES

5.1		The Pledges shall become enforceable if an Event of Default is continuing, unremedied and unwaived, the requirements set forth in Section 1273 para. 2, 1204 et seq. of the German Civil Code with regard to the enforcement of any of the Pledges are met (Pfandreife) and the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, gives notice to the Pledgor that the Pledges in question are enforceable. After the Pledges have become enforceable, the Collateral Agent may in its absolute discretion enforce all or any part of these Pledges in any manner it sees fit.

5.2		The realization of the Pledges (or any part thereof) shall not require a prior court ruling or any other enforceable title (vollstreckbarer Titel). Section 1277 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) is thus excluded.

5.3		The Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, shall be entitled to realize the Pledges either in whole or in part in any legally permissible manner.

5.4		The Collateral Agent shall give the Pledgor at least 10 (ten) Business Days prior written notice of the intention to realize any of the Pledges (the Realization Notice). Such Realization Notice is not necessary if the observance of the notice period will have a materially adversely affect the security interests of the Pledgees. Such Realization Notice shall in particular not be required, if:

5.4.1		the Pledgor ceases to make payments to third parties generally within the meaning of Section 190 para. 1 no. 2 of the Swiss Debt Collection and Bankruptcy Act);

5.4.2		the Pledgor becomes over-indebted within the meaning of Section 725 para 2 of the Swiss Code of Obligations;

5.4.3		the Pledgor files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over its assets;

5.4.4		any third party files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over the assets of the Pledgor, provided such application is not unfounded; or

5.4.5		a preliminary insolvency administrator or an insolvency administrator or any similar kind of receiver, liquidator or administrator has been appointed over the assets of the Pledgor.

5.5		If the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, decides not to enforce the Pledges over all of the Accounts, it shall be entitled to determine, in its sole discretion, which of the Accounts shall be realized.

5.6		The Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, may take all measures and enter into all agreements with the Account Banks or any third-party creditor which it considers necessary or expedient in connection with the realization of the balances on the Accounts, taking into account the legitimate interests of the Pledgor. In particular, the Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Pledgor, declare the termination of time deposits or similar contractual arrangements made in respect of the Accounts.

5.7		For the purpose of realizing the balances on the Accounts, the Pledgor shall, upon the Collateral Agents request, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, promptly (unverzüglich) furnish the Collateral Agent with all documents of title and other relevant documents held by the Pledgor, and shall, at its own expense, forthwith render all assistance which is necessary or expedient in respect of the realization of the balances on the Accounts.

5.8		Following the realization of all or part of the Pledges, the net proceeds (net proceeds shall mean proceeds less any taxes and costs) shall be used to satisfy the Secured Obligations.

6.		WAIVER OF PLEDGORS DEFENCES AND OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS

6.1		The Pledgor hereby waives all defenses against enforcement that may be raised on the basis of potential avoidance (Anfechtbarkeit) and set-off pursuant to Sections 1211, 770 of the German Civil Code. This waiver shall not apply to a set-off with counterclaims that are (i) uncontested (unbestritten) or (ii) based on a binding non- appealable court decision (rechtskräftig festgestellt).

6.2		If the Pledges are enforced, or if the Pledgor has discharged any of the Secured Obligations (or any part of them), Section 1225 of the German Civil Code (legal subrogation of claims to a pledgor Forderungsübergang auf den Verpfänder) shall not apply, and no rights of the Pledgees shall pass to the Pledgor by subrogation or otherwise. Further, the Pledgor shall not at any time before, on or after an enforcement of the Pledges and as a result of the Pledgor entering into this Agreement, be entitled to demand indemnification or compensation from any Borrower, any Guarantor or any of its affiliates or to assign any of these claims.

7.		RELEASE OF THE PLEDGES

7.1		Upon full and final satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, shall at the cost and expense of the Pledgor confirm to the Pledgor in writing the release of the Pledges, do everything necessary to effect that release, and surrender the surplus proceeds, if any, resulting from any realization of the Pledges to the Pledgor. This shall not apply to the extent that the Pledgees have to surrender the Accounts or such proceeds to a third party who is entitled to the Accounts or to such proceeds. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties are aware that, upon the complete and final satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, the Pledges will expire and cease to exist due to their accessory nature (Akzessorietät) by operation of German law. If the

		Collateral Agent is authorized to release in whole or in part any pledges under the ABL Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent is authorized to release such Pledges under this Agreement.

7.2		At any time when the total value of the aggregate security granted by the Pledgor to secure the Secured Obligations (the Security) which can be expected to be realised in the event of an enforcement of the Security (realisierbarer Wert) exceeds 110% of the Secured Obligations (the Limit) not only temporarily, the Pledgees shall on demand of the Pledgor release such part of the Security (Sicherheitenfreigabe) as the Pledgees may in their reasonable discretion determine so as to reduce the realisable value of the Security to the Limit.

8.		DURATION AND INDEPENDENCE

8.1		Without prejudice to Clause 8.2, in no event shall the Pledges expire before and unless all Secured Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and there is no amount outstanding under the Secured Obligations, whether for principal, interest, fees, discounts or other costs, expenses, charges or otherwise.

8.2		The Pledges shall provide a continuing security and, to the largest extent possible under applicable law, no change or amendment whatsoever in and to the Secured Obligations and to any document relating to the Secured Obligations shall affect the validity of this Agreement nor shall it limit the obligations which are imposed on the Pledgor hereunder.

8.3		This Agreement is in addition to, and independent of, any other security or guarantee the Pledgees may now or hereafter hold in respect of the Secured Obligations. None of such security or guarantee shall prejudice, or shall be prejudiced by, the Pledges in any way.

9.		REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Pledgor represents and warrants (sichert zu) to each of the Pledgees by way of an independent guarantee (selbständiges Garantieversprechen) that, at the date hereof:

9.1

it is the unrestricted legal and economic owner of its respective German Accounts and is the unrestricted beneficial owner of the Trust Accounts;

9.2		it does not own any accounts in the Federal Republic of Germany other than its respective German Accounts and is not the beneficial owner of any other accounts in the Federal Republic of Germany other than its respective Trust Accounts;

9.3		the information provided in this Agreement relating to its respective Accounts is accurate and complete in all material respects;

9.4		its respective Accounts are free from any liens, rights of retention (Zurückbehaltungsrechte), other encumbrances and other third party rights (except the rights of Novelis Deutschland GmbH as owner of the Trust Accounts and except to the extent permitted as a Permitted Lien (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement);

9.5		the Pledges granted to the Original Pledgees will have (upon effectiveness of this Agreement but subject to receipt of the executed schedule confirmation by the Account Banks) first-ranking priority and will rank ahead of any current or future third party security interest over the Accounts (except for pledges over accounts to customers or other third parties in a manner permitted by Section 6.02 of the ABL Credit Agreement);

9.6		the Pledges constituted hereunder are valid and enforceable without enforceable judgment or other instrument (vollstreckbarer Titel) subject to any qualification in the legal opinion to be issued by the law firm of Noerr LLP in relation hereto; and

9.7		it has not ceased payments within the meaning of Section 190 para. 1 no. 2 of the Swiss Debt Collection and Bankruptcy Act, nor is it over-indebted within the meaning of Section 725 para. no. 2 of the Swiss Code of obligations or in terms of the Swiss generally accepted accounting principles (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung, nor it is unable, or has admitted inability, to pay its debts as they fall due and is not deemed to, or declared to be, unable to pay its debts.

10.		UNDERTAKINGS OF THE PLEDGOR

The Pledgor undertakes:

10.1

to notify promptly (unverzüglich), substantially in the form set out in Schedule 3 (Notice of Pledge), its Account Banks of the creation of the Pledges over the Accounts, and to obtain from each such Account Bank a confirmation of the receipt of the notice vis-à-vis the Collateral Agent;

10.2		to ensure that its Account Banks release the Accounts from any charges (pledges, rights of retention, rights of set-off, etc.), including charges created pursuant to the respective Account Banks standard terms and conditions (Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen), or subordinate such rights, by the relevant Account Bank signing a confirmation substantially in the form set out in Schedule 4 (Form of Acknowledgement). It is understood among the Parties that a failure by an Account Bank to submit such confirmation to the Collateral Agent does not affect the validity or enforceability of the Pledges;

10.3		upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the Pledgor shall upon the request of the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, to deliver to the Collateral Agent information on the current status of the Accounts;

After any of the events described in Clauses 5.1 or 5.4 has occurred, (i) the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, is hereby authorized to obtain all information and documents (including bank account extracts and other information on the current status of the Accounts) directly from the Account Banks in its own name and at the Pledgors costs, and (ii) the Pledgees and their designees are permitted to inspect, audit and make copies of, and extracts from, all records and all other papers in the possession of the Pledgor which pertain to the Accounts;

10.5		at the request of the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, to promptly (unverzüglich) grant to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Pledgees, pledges (substantially in the form of this Agreement) over any new accounts governed by German law; provided that the Net Cash Proceeds Account (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) shall be subject to the first ranking pledge of the Collateral Agent under the Term Loan Credit Agreement acting on behalf of the pledgees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, accounts pledged to customers or other third parties in a manner permitted by Section 6.02 of the ABL Credit Agreement need not be pledged hereunder;

10.6		not to close or to terminate the Accounts except as permitted under, and under the conditions provided, in the ABL Credit Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as permitted in connection with any changes to the Cash Pooling Arrangements);

10.7		not to transfer any of the Accounts to another bank or relocate any of the Accounts to another branch of the relevant Account Bank unless such transfer does not affect the Pledges and except as permitted, and under the conditions provided, under the ABL Credit Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as permitted in connection with any changes to the Cash Pooling Arrangements);

10.8		to obtain the Collateral Agents written consent, unless otherwise provided in the ABL Credit Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as provided in connection with any changes to the Cash Pooling Arrangements), prior to the establishment of a new account, including any sub-account, re-designated account or re-numbered account pursuant to Clause 2.1.1(B) above.

10.9		not to create or permit to subsist any encumbrance, except for any Permitted Lien, over any of the Accounts, or knowingly do or permit to be done, anything which is likely to be expected to jeopardize or otherwise prejudice the existence, validity or ranking of the Pledges;

10.10		to inform the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Pledgees, promptly (unverzüglich) upon gaining knowledge of any attachments (Pfändungen) of third parties that relate to the Accounts or any other third-party measures, except for the creation of a Permitted Lien, which impair or jeopardize the Pledges. In the event of any such attachment, the Pledgor shall provide the Collateral Agent with a copy of the attachment and/or transfer order (Pfändungs- und/oder Überweisungsbeschluss) and any other documents which the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Pledgees, requests that are necessary or expedient for a defense against such attachment. In addition, the Pledgor shall inform the third party promptly (unverzüglich) in writing of the Pledges and render, at its own expense, to the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, all assistance required or expedient to protect its Pledges; and

10.11		The Pledgor shall, at its own expense, execute and do all such assurances, acts and things as the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, may reasonably require

	10.11.1.2		in the case of the enforcement of security, to facilitate the realization of all or any part of the collateral which is subject to this Agreement

and the exercise of all powers, authorities and discretions vested in the Pledgees.

11.		LIMITATION OF ENFORCEMENT

11.1		If and to the extent (i) the obligations of the Pledgor under this Agreement are for the exclusive benefit of the Affiliates of the Pledgor (except for the (direct or indirect) Subsidiaries of the Pledgor) and (ii) that complying with such obligations would constitute a repayment of capital (Kapitalrückzahlung) or the payment of a (constructive) dividend (Dividendenausschüttung), then the limitations set forth in Section 7.12 (Swiss Guarantors) of the ABL Credit Agreement shall apply to any enforcement of the Pledges and to the proceeds of such enforcement.

SCHEDULE 3
Notice of Pledge

[Letterhead of Pledgor]


From:		Novelis AG Sternenfeldstrasse 19, 8700 Küsnacht, Zurich, Switzerland

To:		[Account Bank]

Date:		[ ]

Re:		Accounts Nos. [] (the Accounts)

We hereby give you the notice that by a pledge agreement on or about December 17, 2010 (the Account Pledge Agreement) we have pledged in favor of Bank of America, N.A. (the Collateral Agent) and the other pledgees set out in the Account Pledge Agreement (together with the Collateral Agent, the Secured Parties) all present and future credit balances, including all interest payable, from time to time standing to the credit on each of the above Accounts (which shall include all sub-accounts, renewals, re-designation, replacements and extensions thereof). A copy of the Account Pledge Agreement is attached hereto.

(B)

any present and future replacement accounts, sub-accounts, re-designated accounts and renumbered accounts which are opened or will be opened in the future in replacement of, or in connection with, its Accounts (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Deutsche Bank Accounts to be opened after the date hereof); and

2.2

Each of the Original Pledgees hereby accepts the Pledges for itself.

2.3

Upon such ratification (Genehmigung) such Future Pledgee becomes a party to this Agreement, it being understood that any future or conditional claim (zukünftiger oder bedingter Anspruch) of such Future Pledgee arising under the ABL Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be secured by the Pledges constituted hereunder.

2.4

All parties hereby confirm that the validity of the Pledges granted hereunder shall not be affected by the Collateral Agent acting as representative without power of attorney for each Future Pledgee.

2.5

The validity and effect of each of the Pledges shall be independent of the validity and the effect of the other Pledges created hereunder. The Pledges to each of the Pledgees shall be separate and individual pledges.

2.7

The Pledges created hereby shall rank ahead of the pledges created with respect to the Accounts in connection with the Term Loan Agreement and of any other security interest or third party right currently in existence or created in the future over any of the Accounts, including the Account Banks pledges.

2.8

Each of the Pledges is in addition, and without prejudice, to any other security the Pledgees may now or hereafter hold in respect of the Secured Obligations.

2.9

For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that nothing in this Agreement shall exclude a transfer of all or part of the Pledges created hereunder by operation of law upon the transfer or assignment (including by way of novation or assumption (Vertragsübernahme)) of all or part of the Secured Obligations by any Pledgee to a Future Pledgee.

SECURED OBLIGATIONS

3.1

The security created hereunder secures the payment of all Secured Obligations. The Pledgor hereby expressly agrees that the provisions of Section 1210 para. 1 sentence 2 of the German Civil Code shall not apply to this Agreement.

3.2

With respect to the Original Pledgee 2, the security created hereunder secures only the obligations of the Pledgor arising under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement (the RPA Obligations).

3.3

The Pledgees hereby agree, for the benefit of the pledgees (the Term Loan Account Pledgees) under the account pledge agreement among, inter alios, Bank of America, N.A. as collateral agent under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Pledgor dated on or around the date hereof (the Term Loan Account Pledge Agreement) (echter Vertrag zu Gunsten Dritter), that any security over any Pari Passu Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) granted hereunder shall rank in personam (schuldrechtlich) vis-a-vis the Term Loan Account Pledgees (inter partes) behind any security over any Pari Passu Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) granted under the Term Loan Account Pledge Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

DISPOSALS OVER ACCOUNTS

4.1

In relation to the Account Banks, the Pledgor shall be authorized to dispose over (verfügen) its respective Accounts in the ordinary course of business. This authorization shall, in particular, include the right to withdraw and transfer funds from its respective Accounts. The Accounts may only be closed to the extent and under the conditions permitted under the ABL Credit Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as permitted in connection with any changes to the Cash Pooling Arrangements). The Pledgees, acting through the Collateral Agent, shall be entitled to revoke the authorization granted under this Clause 4 at any time after any of the events described in Clauses 5.1 or 5.4 has occurred.

The Collateral Agent shall notify the Pledgor accordingly.

REALISATION OF THE PLEDGES

5.1

The Pledges shall become enforceable if an Event of Default is continuing, unremedied and unwaived, the requirements set forth in Section 1273 para. 2, 1204 et seq. of the German Civil Code with regard to the enforcement of any of the Pledges are met (Pfandreife) and the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, gives notice to the Pledgor that the Pledges in question are enforceable. After the Pledges have become enforceable, the Collateral Agent may in its absolute discretion enforce all or any part of these Pledges in any manner it sees fit.

5.2

The realization of the Pledges (or any part thereof) shall not require a prior court ruling or any other enforceable title (vollstreckbarer Titel). Section 1277 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) is thus excluded.

5.3

The Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, shall be entitled to realize the Pledges either in whole or in part in any legally permissible manner.

5.4

The Collateral Agent shall give the Pledgor at least 10 (ten) Business Days prior written notice of the intention to realize any of the Pledges (the Realization Notice). Such Realization Notice is not necessary if the observance of the notice period will have a materially adversely affect the security interests of the Pledgees. Such Realization Notice shall in particular not be required, if:

5.4.1

the Pledgor ceases to make payments to third parties generally (within the meaning of Section 17 (2), Sentence 2 of the German Insolvency Regulation, Insolvenzordnung);

5.4.2

the Pledgor becomes over-indebted (within the meaning of Section 19 of the German Insolvency Regulation), or illiquid (within the meaning of Section 17 of the German Insolvency Regulation);

5.4.3

the Pledgor files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over its assets;

5.4.4

any third party files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over the assets of the Pledgor, provided such application is not unfounded; or

5.4.5

a preliminary insolvency administrator (vorläufiger Insolvenzverwalter) or an insolvency administrator or any similar kind of receiver, liquidator or administrator has been appointed over the assets of the Pledgor.

5.5

If the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, decides not to enforce the Pledges over all of the Accounts, it shall be entitled to determine, in its sole discretion, which of the Accounts shall be realized.

5.6

The Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, may take all measures and enter into all agreements with the Account Banks or any third-party creditor which it considers necessary or expedient in connection with the realization of the balances on the Accounts, taking into account the legitimate interests of the Pledgor. In particular, the Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Pledgor, declare the termination of time deposits or similar contractual arrangements made in respect of the Accounts.

5.7

For the purpose of realizing the balances on the Accounts, the Pledgor shall, upon the Collateral Agents request, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, promptly (unverzüglich) furnish the Collateral Agent with all documents of title and other relevant documents held by the Pledgor, and shall, at its own expense, forthwith render all assistance which is necessary or expedient in respect of the realization of the balances on the Accounts.

5.8

Following the realization of all or part of the Pledges, the net proceeds (net proceeds shall mean proceeds less any taxes and costs) shall be used to satisfy the Secured Obligations and the RPA Obligations.

5.9

With respect to the Original Pledgee 2, net proceeds from the realization of any or all of the Pledges shall be distributed to the Original Pledgee 2 only to the extent such proceeds are generated from the realization of Pledges over Accounts that are subject to the Trust Agreement.

WAIVER OF PLEDGORS DEFENSES AND OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS

6.1

The Pledgor hereby waives all defenses against enforcement that may be raised on the basis of potential avoidance (Anfechtbarkeit) and set-off pursuant to Sections 1211, 770 of the German Civil Code. This waiver shall not apply to a set-off with counterclaims that are (i) uncontested (unbestritten) or (ii) based on a binding non- appealable court decision (rechtskräftig festgestellt).

6.2

If the Pledges are enforced, or if the Pledgor has discharged any of the Secured Obligations (or any part of them), Section 1225 of the German Civil Code (legal subrogation of claims to a pledgor Forderungsübergang auf den Verpfänder) shall not apply, and no rights of the Pledgees shall pass to the Pledgor by subrogation or otherwise. Further, the Pledgor shall not at any time before, on or after an enforcement of the Pledges and as a result of the Pledgor entering into this Agreement, be entitled to demand indemnification or compensation from any Borrower, any Guarantor or any of its affiliates or to assign any of these claims.

RELEASE OF THE PLEDGES

7.1

Upon full and final satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, shall at the cost and expense of the Pledgor confirm to the Pledgor in writing the release of the Pledges, do everything necessary to effect that release, and surrender the surplus proceeds, if any, resulting from any realization of the Pledges to the Pledgor. This shall not apply to the extent that the Pledgees have to surrender the Accounts or such proceeds to a third party who is entitled to the Accounts or to such proceeds. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties are aware that, upon the complete and final satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, the Pledges will expire and cease to exist due to their accessory nature (Akzessorietät) by operation of German law. If the Collateral Agent is authorized to release in whole or in part any pledges under the ABL Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent is authorized to release such Pledges under this Agreement.

7.2

At any time when the total value of the aggregate security granted by the Pledgor to secure the Secured Obligations (the Security) which can be expected to be realised in the event of an enforcement of the Security (realisierbarer Wert) exceeds 110% of the Secured Obligations (the Limit) not only temporarily, the Pledgees shall on demand of the Pledgor release such part of the Security (Sicherheitenfreigabe) as the Pledgees may in their reasonable discretion determine so as to reduce the realisable value of the Security to the Limit.

DURATION AND INDEPENDENCE

8.1

Without prejudice to Clause 8.2, in no event shall the Pledges expire before and unless all Secured Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and there is no amount outstanding under the Secured Obligations, whether for principal, interest, fees, discounts or other costs, expenses, charges or otherwise.

8.2

The Pledges shall provide a continuing security and, to the largest extent possible under applicable law, no change or amendment whatsoever in and to the Secured Obligations and to any document relating to the Secured Obligations shall affect the validity of this Agreement nor shall it limit the obligations which are imposed on the Pledgor hereunder.

8.3

This Agreement is in addition to, and independent of, any other security or guarantee the Pledgees may now or hereafter hold in respect of the Secured Obligations. None of such security or guarantee shall prejudice, or shall be prejudiced by, the Pledges in any way.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Pledgor represents and warrants (sichert zu) to each of the Pledgees by way of an independent guarantee (selbständiges Garantieversprechen) that, at the date hereof:

9.1

except for the rights of the Original Pledgee 2 with respect to the Trust Accounts created under the Trust Agreement, it is the unrestricted legal and economic owner of its respective Accounts;

9.2

9.5

the Pledges granted to the Original Pledgee 2 will have (upon effectiveness of this Agreement but subject to receipt of the executed schedule confirmation by the Account Banks) first-ranking priority, and the Pledges granted to the other Pledgees will rank ahead of any current or future third party security interest over the Accounts (except for pledges over accounts to customers or other third parties in a manner permitted by Section 6.02 of the ABL Credit Agreement);

9.6

the Pledges constituted hereunder are valid and enforceable without enforceable judgment or other instrument (vollstreckbarer Titel) subject to any qualification in the legal opinion to be issued by the law firm of Noerr LLP in relation hereto; and

9.7

it has not ceased payments within the meaning of Section 17 (2), Sentence 2 of the German Insolvency Regulation, nor is it over-indebted within the meaning of Section 19 of the German Insolvency Regulation or in terms of the German generally accepted accounting principles (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung), nor is it illiquid within the meaning of Section 17 of the German Insolvency Regulation, nor is its illiquidity imminent within the meaning of Section 18 of the German Insolvency Regulation.

10.

The Pledgor undertakes:

10.1

10.2

It is understood among the Parties that a failure by an Account Bank to submit such confirmation to the Original Pledgee 1 does not affect the validity or enforceability of the Pledges;

After any of the events described in Clauses 5.1 or 5.4 has occurred, (i) the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, is hereby authorized to obtain all information and documents (including bank account extracts and other information on the current status of the Accounts) directly from the Account Banks in its own name and at the Pledgors costs, and (ii) the Pledgees and their designees are permitted to inspect, audit and make copies of, and extracts from, all records and all other papers in the possession of the Pledgor which pertain to the Accounts;

10.5

at the request of the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, to promptly (unverzüglich) grant to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Pledgees, pledges (substantially in the form of this Agreement) over any new accounts governed by German law; provided that the Net Cash Proceeds Accounts (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) shall be subject to the first ranking pledge of the Collateral Agent under the Term Loan Credit Agreement acting on behalf of the pledgees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, accounts pledged to customers or other third parties in a manner permitted by Section 6.02 of the ABL Credit Agreement need not be pledged hereunder;

10.6

10.7

not to transfer any of the Accounts to another bank or relocate any of the Accounts to another branch of the Account Bank unless such transfer does not affect the Pledges and except as permitted, and under the conditions provided, under the ABL Credit Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as permitted in connection with any changes to the Cash Pooling Arrangements);

10.8

to obtain the Collateral Agents written consent, unless otherwise provided in the ABL Credit Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as provided in connection with any changes to the Cash Pooling Arrangements), prior to the establishment of a new account, including any sub-account, re-designated account or re-numbered account pursuant to Clause 2.1.1(B) above. Upon the Pledgees request, the Pledgor shall give all declarations and render all reasonable assistance which is necessary in order to perfect the Pledgees pledge over the so established account;

10.9

not to create or permit to subsist any encumbrance, except for any Permitted Lien, over any of the Accounts, or knowingly do or permit to be done, anything which is likely to be expected to jeopardize or otherwise prejudice the existence, validity or ranking of the Pledges;

10.10

to inform the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Pledgees, promptly (unverzüglich) upon gaining knowledge of any attachments (Pfändungen) of third parties that relate to the Accounts or any other third-party measures, except for the creation of a Permitted Lien, which impair or jeopardize the Pledges. In the event of any such attachment, the Pledgor shall provide the Collateral Agent with a copy of the attachment and/or transfer order (Pfändungs- und/oder Überweisungsbeschluss) and any other documents which the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Pledgees, requests that are necessary or expedient for a defense against such attachment. In addition, the Pledgor shall inform the third party promptly (unverzüglich) in writing of the Pledges and render, at its own expense, to the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, all assistance required or expedient to protect its Pledges; and

10.11

The Pledgor shall, at its own expense, execute and do all such assurances, acts and things as the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, may reasonably require

	10.11.1		for perfecting or protecting the security under this Agreement; and

	10.11.2		in the case of the enforcement of security, to facilitate the realization of all or any part of the collateral which is subject to this Agreement and the exercise of all powers, authorities and discretions vested in the Pledgees.

11.

LIMITATION OF ENFORCEMENT

11.1

Subject to Clause 11.2 through Clause 11.6 below, the Collateral Agent shall not enforce the Pledges to the extent (i) the Pledges secure obligations of one of the Pledgors shareholders or of an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of a shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (other than a Subsidiary of the Pledgor or the Pledgor itself), and (ii) the enforcement of the Pledges for such obligations would reduce, in violation of Section 30 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbHG), the net assets (assets minus liabilities minus provisions and liability reserves (Reinvermögen), in each case as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger

Buchführung) as consistently applied by the Pledgor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluß gemäß § 42 GmbHG, §§ 242, 264 HGB)) of the Pledgor to an amount that is insufficient to maintain its registered share capital (Stammkapital) (or would increase an existing shortage in its net assets below its registered share capital); provided that for the purpose of determining the relevant registered share capital and the net assets, as the case may be:

	11.1.1		The amount of any increase of the Pledgors registered share capital (Stammkapital) implemented after the date of this Agreement that is effected without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent shall be deducted from the registered share capital of the Pledgor;

	11.1.2		any loans provided to the Pledgor by a direct or indirect shareholder or an affiliate thereof (other than a Subsidiary of the Pledgor) shall be disregarded and not accounted for as a liability to the extent that such loans are subordinated pursuant to Section 39 (1) Nr. 1 through Nr. 5 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) or subordinated in any other way by law or contract;

	11.1.3		any shareholder loans, other loans and contractual obligations and liabilities incurred by the Pledgor in violation of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents shall be disregarded and not accounted for as liabilities;

	11.1.4		any assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value that, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, is significantly lower than their market value and that are not necessary for the business of the Pledgor (nicht betriebsnotwendig) shall be accounted for with their market value; and

	11.1.5		the assets of the Pledgor will be assessed at liquidation values (Liquidationswerte) if, at the time the managing directors prepare the balance sheet in accordance with paragraph (b) below and absent the demand a positive going concern prognosis (positive Fortbestehensprognose) cannot be established.

11.2

The limitations set out in Clause 11.1 only apply:

	11.2.1		If and to the extent that the managing directors of the Pledgor have confirmed in writing to the Collateral Agent within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement under this Agreement the value of the Pledges which cannot be enforced without causing the net assets of the Pledgor to fall below its registered share capital, or increase an existing shortage in net assets below its registered share capital (taking into account the adjustments set out above) and such confirmation is supported by a current balance sheet and other evidence satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties raises any objections against that confirmation within five (5) Business Days after its receipt; or

	11.2.2		if, within twenty (20) Business Days after an objection under paragraph 11.2.1 has been raised by the Collateral Agent or a Secured Party, the Collateral Agent receives a written audit report (Auditors Determination) prepared at the expense of the Pledgor by a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation that is appointed by the Pledgor and reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, to the extent such report identifies the amount by which the net assets of the Pledgor are necessary to maintain its registered share capital as at the date of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement (taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Auditors Determination shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer Buchführung) as consistently applied by the Pledgor in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet. The Auditors Determination shall be binding for all Parties except for manifest error.

11.3

In any event, the Collateral Agent, for and on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled to enforce the Pledges up to those amounts that are undisputed between them and the Pledgor or determined in accordance with Clause 11.1 and Clause 11.2. In respect of the exceeding amounts, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to further pursue their claims (if any) and the Pledgor shall be entitled to provide evidence that the excess amounts are necessary to maintain its registered share capital (calculated as at the date of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement and taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Secured Parties are entitled to pursue those parts of the Pledges that are not enforced by operation of Clause 11.1 above at any subsequent point in time. This Clause 11 shall apply again as of the time such additional enforcements are made.

11.4

Clause 11.1 shall not apply as to the amount of Loans borrowed and passed on (whether by way of shareholder loan or equity contribution) to the Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries as long as the respective shareholder loan is outstanding or the respective equity contribution has not been dissolved or otherwise repaid but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any purchase price payment received by the Pledgor under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

11.5

Should it become legally permissible for managing directors of a German GmbH (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, Limited Liability Company) to enter into guarantees in support of obligations of their shareholders without limitations, the limitations set forth in Clause 11.1 shall no longer apply. Should any such guarantees become subject to legal restrictions that are less stringent than the limitations set forth in Clause 11.1 above, such less stringent limitations shall apply. Otherwise, Clause 11.1 shall remain unaffected by changes in applicable law.

11.6

The limitations provided for in Clause 11.1 above shall not apply where (i) the Pledgor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) recourse claim (Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) vis-à-vis the relevant shareholder or (ii) a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) or a profit and loss pooling agreement (Ergebnisabführungsvertrag) is or will be in existence with the Pledgor and the Pledgor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) recourse claim (Ausgleichsanspruch).

12.

ECONOMIC OWNERSHIP OF THE ACCOUNTS

The Pledgor hereby declares pursuant to Section 8 of the German Money Laundering Act (Geldwäschegesetz) (i) that it is the economic owner (wirtschaftlicher Berechtigter) of its Accounts other than the Trust Accounts and that it did not, and still does not, act for the account of third parties in connection with the establishment and the maintenance of such Accounts other than the Trust Accounts and (ii) that Novelis AG is the economic owner (wirtschaftlicher Berechtigter) of its Trust Accounts.

2.		CREATION OF PLEDGES

2.1		The Pledgor hereby pledges to each of the Pledgees:

2.1.1		any present and future credit balances, including interest, standing from time to time to the credit of,

(A)		its Accounts;

(B)		any present and future replacement accounts, sub-accounts, re-designated accounts and renumbered accounts which are opened or will be opened in the future in replacement of, or in connection with, its Accounts (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Deutsche Bank Accounts to be opened after the date hereof); and

2.1.2		all other present and future rights to receive payments in connection with its Accounts, including claims for damages or unjust enrichment.

2.2		Each of the Original Pledgees hereby accepts the Pledges for itself.

2.3		The Collateral Agent accepts, as representative without power of attorney (Vertreter ohne Vertretungsmacht) the respective Pledges for and on behalf of each Future Pledgee. Each Future Pledgee will ratify and confirm the declarations and acts so made by the Collateral Agent on its behalf by accepting the transfer or assignment (including by way of novation or assumption (Vertragsübernahme)) of the Secured Obligations (or part of them) from a Pledgee or by becoming party to any Loan Document. Upon such ratification (Genehmigung) such Future Pledgee becomes a party to this Agreement, it being understood that any future or conditional claim (zukünftiger oder bedingter Anspruch) of such Future Pledgee arising under the ABL Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be secured by the Pledges constituted hereunder.

2.4		All parties hereby confirm that the validity of the Pledges granted hereunder shall not be affected by the Collateral Agent acting as representative without power of attorney for each Future Pledgee.

2.5		The validity and effect of each of the Pledges shall be independent of the validity and the effect of the other Pledges created hereunder. The Pledges to each of the Pledgees shall be separate and individual pledges ranking pari passu with the other Pledges created hereunder.

2.6		The Pledges created hereunder shall rank ahead of any other security interest or third party right currently in existence or created in the future over the Accounts, including the Account Banks pledges.

2.7		Each of the Pledges is in addition, and without prejudice, to any other security the Pledgees may now or hereafter hold in respect of the Secured Obligations.

2.8		For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that nothing in this Agreement shall exclude a transfer of all or part of the Pledges created hereunder by operation of law upon the transfer or assignment (including by way of novation or assumption (Vertragsübernahme)) of all or part of the Secured Obligations by any Pledgee to a Future Pledgee.

3.		SECURED OBLIGATIONS

3.1		The security created hereunder secures the payment of all Secured Obligations. The Pledgor hereby expressly agrees that the provisions of Section 1210 para. 1 sentence 2 of the German Civil Code shall not apply to this Agreement.

3.2		The Pledgees hereby agree, for the benefit of the pledgees (the Term Loan Account Pledgees) under the account pledge agreement among, inter alios, Bank of America, N.A. as collateral agent under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Pledgor dated on or around the date hereof (the Term Loan Account Pledge Agreement) (echter Vertrag zu Gunsten Dritter), that any security over any Pari Passu Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) granted hereunder shall rank in personam (schuldrechtlich) vis-a-vis the Term Loan Account Pledgees (inter partes) behind any security over any Pari Passu Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) granted under the Term Loan Account Pledge Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

4.		DISPOSALS OVER ACCOUNT

4.1		In relation to the Accounts Banks, the Pledgor shall be authorized to dispose over (verfügen) its Accounts in the ordinary course of business. This authorization

		shall, in particular, include the right to withdraw and transfer funds from the Accounts. The Accounts may only be closed to the extent and under the conditions permitted under the ABL Credit Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as permitted in connection with any changes to the Cash Pooling Arrangements). The Pledgees, acting through the Collateral Agent, shall be entitled to revoke the authorization granted under this Clause 4 at any time after any of the events described in Clauses 5.1 or 5.4 has occurred.

4.2		Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, unremedied and unwaived, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Pledgees, shall irrevocably and at any and all times be entitled to (i) notify each Account Bank of the forthcoming enforcement of the Pledges and (ii) instruct each and every Account Bank that as of receipt of such notice it shall no longer allow any dispositions by the Pledgor over any amounts standing to the credit on the Accounts. The Collateral Agent shall notify the Pledgor accordingly.

5.		REALISATION OF THE PLEDGES

5.1		The Pledges shall become enforceable if an Event of Default is continuing, unremedied and unwaived, the requirements set forth in Section 1273 para. 2, 1204 et seq. of the German Civil Code with regard to the enforcement of any of the Pledges are met (Pfandreife) and the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, gives notice to the Pledgor that the Pledges in question are enforceable. After the Pledges have become enforceable, the Collateral Agent may in its absolute discretion enforce all or any part of these Pledges in any manner it sees fit.

5.2		The realization of the Pledges (or any part thereof) shall not require a prior court ruling or any other enforceable title (vollstreckbarer Titel). Section 1277 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) is thus excluded.

5.3		The Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, shall be entitled to realize the Pledges either in whole or in part in any legally permissible manner.

5.4		The Collateral Agent shall give the Pledgor at least 10 (ten) Business Days prior written notice of the intention to realize any of the Pledges (the Realization Notice). Such Realization Notice is not necessary if the observance of the notice period will have a materially adversely affect the security interests of the Pledgees. Such Realization Notice shall in particular not be required, if:

5.4.1		the Pledgor ceases to make payments to third parties generally within the meaning of Section 190 para. 1 no. 2 of the Swiss Debt Collection and Bankruptcy Act);

5.4.2		the Pledgor becomes over-indebted within the meaning of Section 725 para 2 of the Swiss Code of Obligations;

5.4.3		the Pledgor files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over its assets;

5.4.4		any third party files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over the assets of the Pledgor, provided such application is not unfounded; or

5.4.5		a preliminary insolvency administrator or an insolvency administrator or any similar kind of receiver, liquidator or administrator has been appointed over the assets of the Pledgor.

5.5		The Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, may take all measures and enter into all agreements with the Account Banks or any third-party creditor which it considers necessary or expedient in connection with the realization of the balances on the Accounts, taking into account the legitimate interests of the Pledgor. In particular, the Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Pledgor, declare the termination of time deposits or similar contractual arrangements made in respect of the Accounts.

5.6		For the purpose of realizing the balances on the Accounts, the Pledgor shall, upon the Collateral Agents request, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, promptly (unverzüglich) furnish the Collateral Agent with all documents of title and other relevant documents held by the Pledgor, and shall, at its own expense, forthwith render all assistance which is necessary or expedient in respect of the realization of the balances on the Accounts.

5.7		Following the realization of all or part of the Pledges, the net proceeds (net proceeds shall mean proceeds less any taxes and costs) shall be used to satisfy the Secured Obligations.

6.		WAIVER OF PLEDGORS DEFENSES AND OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS

6.1		The Pledgor hereby waives all defenses against enforcement that may be raised on the basis of potential avoidance (Anfechtbarkeit) and set-off pursuant to Sections 1211, 770 of the German Civil Code. This waiver shall not apply to a set-off with counterclaims that are (i) uncontested (unbestritten) or (ii) based on a binding non- appealable court decision (rechtskräftig festgestellt).

6.2		If the Pledges are enforced, or if the Pledgor has discharged any of the Secured Obligations (or any part of them), Section 1225 of the German Civil Code (legal subrogation of claims to a pledgor Forderungsübergang auf den Verpfänder) shall not apply, and no rights of the Pledgees shall pass to the Pledgor by subrogation or otherwise. Further, the Pledgor shall not at any time before, on or after an enforcement of the Pledges and as a result of the Pledgor entering into this Agreement, be entitled to demand indemnification or compensation from any ABL Borrower, any Guarantor or any of its affiliates or to assign any of these claims.

7.		RELEASE OF THE PLEDGES

7.1		Upon full and final satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, shall at the cost and expense of the Pledgor confirm to the Pledgor in writing the release of the Pledges, do everything necessary to effect that release, and surrender the surplus proceeds, if any, resulting from any realization of the Pledges to the Pledgor. This shall not apply to the extent that the Pledgees have to surrender the Accounts or such proceeds to a third party who is entitled to the Accounts or to such proceeds. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties are aware that, upon the complete and final satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, the Pledges will expire and cease to exist due to their accessory nature (Akzessorietät) by operation of German law. If the Collateral Agent is authorized to release in whole or in any part any pledges under the ABL Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent is authorized to release such Pledges under this Agreement.

7.2		At any time when the total value of the aggregate security granted by the Pledgor to secure the Secured Obligations (the Security) which can be expected to be realized in the event of an enforcement of the Security (realisierbarer Wert) exceeds 110% of the Secured Obligations (the Limit) not only temporarily, the Pledgees shall on demand of the Pledgor release such part of the Security

		(Sicherheitenfreigabe) as the Pledgees may in their reasonable discretion determine so as to reduce the realizable value of the Security to the Limit.

8.		DURATION AND INDEPENDENCE


8.1		Without prejudice to Clause 8.2, in no event shall the Pledges expire before and unless all Secured Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and there is no amount outstanding under the Secured Obligations, whether for principal, interest, fees, discounts or other costs, expenses, charges or otherwise.

8.2		The Pledges shall provide a continuing security and, to the largest extent possible under applicable law, no change or amendment whatsoever in and to the Secured Obligations and to any document relating to the Secured Obligations shall affect the validity of this Agreement nor shall it limit the obligations which are imposed on the Pledgor hereunder.

8.3		This Agreement is in addition to, and independent of, any other security or guarantee the Pledgees may now or hereafter hold in respect of the Secured Obligations. None of such security or guarantee shall prejudice, or shall be prejudiced by, the Pledges in any way.

9.		REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

9.6		the Pledges constituted hereunder are valid and enforceable without enforceable judgment or other instrument (vollstreckbarer Titel) subject to any qualification in the legal opinion to be issued by the law firm of Noerr LLP in relation hereto; and

The Pledgor undertakes:

10.1		to notify promptly (unverzüglich), substantially in the form set out in Schedule 3 (Notice of Pledge), its Account Banks of the creation of the Pledges, and to obtain from each such Account Bank confirmation vis-à-vis the Collateral Agent of the receipt of the notice;

In addition, the Pledgor shall inform the third party promptly (unverzüglich) in writing of the Pledges and render, at its own expense, to the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Pledgees, all assistance required or expedient to protect its Pledges; and

We take note of the fact that until notice to the contrary from the Collateral Agent to be served to us as Account Bank, the Pledgor may continue to operate the Account(s) and in particular may dispose over the amounts standing to the credit of the Account(s).

2.		ABSTRACT ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS

2.1		Each of the Debtors hereby acknowledges by way of an abstract acknowledgement of indebtedness (in Form eines abstrakten Schuldanerkenntnisses) that it owes to the Collateral Agent sums equal to, and in the currency of, the Secured Obligations owed by it (the Abstract Acknowledgement of Indebtedness).

2.2		Each of the Debtors undertakes to pay to the Collateral Agent the amount referred to in clause 2.1 above upon first written demand after the Secured Obligations have become due.

2.3		The Collateral Agent shall have its own independent right to demand and receive full or partial payment of the obligations under this Agreement from each of the Debtors, irrespective of the rights of the Secured Parties under the Loan Documents.

2.4		The Debtors obligations under this Agreement shall not affect the existence of the Secured Obligations for which the Secured Parties shall have an independent right to demand payment according to the terms applicable to the Secured Obligations, nor any of the Debtors obligations, promises and other liabilities under the other Loan Documents as the same are supplemented or amended from time to time.

2.5		The Collateral Agent and the Debtors agree that the Debtors obligations under this Agreement shall not increase the total amount of the Secured Obligations. Accordingly, payment of the Secured Obligations and payment of the obligations under this Agreement may be collected only once and any discharge of any obligations under this Agreement shall, to the same extent, discharge the corresponding Secured Obligations and vice versa.

3.		GUARANTEE

3.1		Each of the Debtors, acting as joint and several debtors (Gesamtschuldner), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees by way of an independent guarantee (Garantie) (the Guarantee) to the Collateral Agent, each existing lender under the ABL Credit Agreement, each party that becomes a lender thereunder in the future by way of assignment, novation or accession to the

- 3 -

ABL Credit Agreement, and each other Secured Party the due and punctual fulfillment of all Secured Obligations.

3.2		Each of the Debtors shall effect payment under the Guarantee promptly upon the Collateral Agents demand and confirmation (Garantie auf erstes Anfordern) that any amount claimed from the Debtors hereunder is equal to the monies not paid under the Secured Obligations when due.

3.3		Any sum falling within the ambit of Clause 3.1 which may not be recoverable from the Debtors on the basis of this Guarantee for any reason whatsoever shall nonetheless be recoverable from the Debtors hereunder on the basis of a primary obligation to the Collateral Agent, the Secured Parties and the Lenders to indemnify them against any loss (including loss of profit) incurred by them or any of them in consequence of any party (other than the Lenders) to the ABL Credit Agreement or another Loan Document failing to perform any obligation thereunder.

3.4		The Collateral Agent may at any time without thereby discharging, impairing or otherwise affecting the obligations of the Debtors hereunder (i) give or agree to give any time or other indulgence to any party in respect of the Secured Obligations, (ii) (to the extent this is not to the detriment of the Debtors) offer or agree to or enter into any agreement for any variation of the Secured Obligations, (iii) settle with any party with respect to Secured Obligations or any of them or (iv) prove or abstain from proving (anmelden) a Secured Obligation in a bankruptcy, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of a Loan Party.

3.5		The obligation of the Debtors hereunder are (and are intended to be) a continuing and independent security to the Collateral Agent, each Secured Party and each Lender, as the case may be, for the due and punctual payment of each and every sum of principal, interest and all other moneys payable with respect to the Secured Obligations and accordingly the Guarantee (i) shall be in addition to and not in substitution for or derogation from any other encumbrance, guarantee or other security now or at any time hereafter held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent, such Secured Party or such Lender in respect of the Secured Obligations, (ii) shall not be or be construed to be satisfied by any discharge of or payment of or on account of the Secured Obligations which has not resulted in a final and irrevocable settlement of the respective obligation, and (iii) shall at all times extend to cover the balance of principal, interest and all other moneys which are now or may at any time hereafter be due and payable with respect to the Secured Obligations.

- 4 -

3.6		The Collateral Agent shall not be obliged before asserting or enforcing the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder (i) to take action or obtain judgment against any Loan Party in any court, (ii) to make or file any claim or proof in any bankruptcy, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of any such party or (iii) to enforce or seek to enforce any other encumbrance, guarantee or other security now or at any time hereafter held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent, such Secured Party or such Lender in respect of the Secured Obligations.

3.7		Where any payment has been made by the Debtors to the Collateral Agent, any Secured Party or any Lender hereunder the Debtors shall not take the benefit of subrogation (Übergang von Rechten) (if any) of any rights or any encumbrance, guarantee or other security now or any time hereafter held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent, any Secured Party or any Lender in respect of the Secured Obligations until the Secured Obligations have been discharged in full.

3.8		This agreement may be enforced against the Debtors by the Collateral Agent as agent for the Lenders and the Secured Parties in any proceedings, including enforcement proceedings.

4.		LIMITATION AS TO THE OBLIGATION OF THE GERMAN DEBTOR

4.1		Subject to Clause 4.2 through Clause 4.6 below, the Collateral Agent shall not enforce the obligations created hereunder (the Guarantee Obligations) to the extent (i) the Guarantee Obligations secure obligations of one of the German Debtors shareholders or of an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of a shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (other than a Subsidiary of the German Debtor, or the German Debtor itself), and (ii) the enforcement of the Guarantee Obligations for such obligations would reduce, in violation of Section 30 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbHG), the net assets (assets minus liabilities minus provisions and liability reserves (Reinvermögen), in each case as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) as consistently applied by the German Debtor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluß gemäß § 42 GmbHG, §§ 242, 264 HGB) of the German Debtor to an amount that is insufficient to maintain its registered share capital (Stammkapital) (or would increase an existing shortage in its net assets below its registered share capital); provided that for the purpose of determining the relevant registered share capital and the net assets, as the case may be:

- 5 -

	4.1.1		The amount of any increase of the German Debtors registered share capital (Stammkapital) implemented after the date of this Agreement that is effected without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent shall be deducted from the registered share capital of the German Debtor;

	4.1.2		any loans provided to the German Debtor by a direct or indirect shareholder or an affiliate thereof (other than a Subsidiary of the German Debtor) shall be disregarded and not accounted for as a liability to the extent that such loans are subordinated pursuant to Section 39(1) Nr. 1 through Nr. 5 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) or subordinated in any other way by law or contract;

	4.1.3		any shareholder loans, other loans and contractual obligations and liabilities incurred by the German Debtor in violation of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents shall be disregarded and not accounted for as liabilities;

	4.1.4		any assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value that, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, is significantly lower than their market value and that are not necessary for the business of the German Debtor (nicht betriebsnotwendig) shall be accounted for with their market value; and

	4.1.5		the assets of the German Debtor will be assessed at liquidation values (Liquidationswerte) if, at the time the managing directors prepare the balance sheet in accordance with Clause 4.2.1 below and absent the demand a positive going concern prognosis (positive Fortbestehensprognose) cannot be established.

4.2

The limitations set out in Clause 4.1 only apply:

4.2.1

if and to the extent that the managing directors of the German Debtor have confirmed in writing to the Collateral Agent within ten (10) Business Days of a demand for payment or the commencement of enforcement under this Agreement the value of the Guarantee Obligations which cannot be enforced without causing the net assets of the German Debtor to fall below its registered share capital, or increase an existing shortage in net assets below its registered share capital (taking into account the adjustments set out above) and such confirmation is supported by a current balance sheet and other evidence satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and neither the Collateral

- 6 -

Agent nor any of the Secured Parties raises any objections against that confirmation within five (5) Business Days after its receipt; or

4.2.2

if, within twenty (20) Business Days after an objection under Clause 4.2.1 has been raised by the Collateral Agent or a Secured Party, the Collateral Agent receives a written audit report (Auditors Determination) prepared at the expense of the German Debtor by a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation that is appointed by the German Debtor and reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, to the extent such report identifies the amount by which the net assets of the German Debtor are necessary to maintain its registered share capital as at the date of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement (taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Auditors Determination shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer Buchführung) as consistently applied by the German Debtor in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet. The Auditors Determination shall be binding for all Parties except for manifest error.

4.3		In any event, the Collateral Agent, for and on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled to enforce the Guarantee Obligations up to those amounts that are undisputed between them and the German Debtor or determined in accordance with Clause 4.1 and Clause 4.2. In respect of the exceeding amounts, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to further pursue their claims (if any) and the German Debtor shall be entitled to provide evidence that the excess amounts are necessary to maintain its registered share capital (calculated as at the date of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement and taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Secured Parties are entitled to enforce those parts of the Guarantee Obligations that are not enforced by operation of Clause 4.1 above at any subsequent point in time. This Clause 4 shall apply again as of the time such additional enforcement is made.

4.4		Clause 4.1 shall not apply as to the amount of Loans borrowed and passed on (whether by way of shareholder loan or equity contribution) to the German Debtor or any of its Subsidiaries as long as the respective shareholder loan is outstanding or the respective equity contribution has not been dissolved or otherwise repaid but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any purchase price payment received by the German Debtor under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

- 7 -

4.5		Should it become legally permissible for managing directors of a German GmbH (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, Limited Liability Company) to enter into security arrangements in support of obligations of their shareholders without limitations, the limitations set forth in Clause 4.1 shall no longer apply. Should any such guarantees become subject to legal restrictions that are less stringent than the limitations set forth in Clause 4.1 above, such less stringent limitations shall apply. Otherwise, Clause 4.1 shall remain unaffected by changes in applicable law.

4.6		The limitations provided for in Clause 4.1 above shall not apply where (i) the German Debtor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) recourse claim (Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) vis-à-vis the relevant shareholder or (ii) a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) or a profit and loss pooling agreement (Ergebnisabführungsvertrag) is or will be in existence with the German Debtor and the German Debtor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) compensation claim (Ausgleichsanspruch).

5.		SECURITY PURPOSE

		The purpose of the Abstract Acknowledgement of Indebtedness and Guarantee is to secure the prompt, full and irrevocable discharge of any and all Secured Obligations.

6.		ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER

6.1		The Collateral Agent shall, at any time, have the right to assign and to transfer all or any part of its rights or obligations or both under this Agreement to any of the Secured Parties or any person becoming a Secured Party and the respective Debtor shall execute and deliver all such documents and take all such actions and make all such declarations which the Collateral Agent may reasonably require in connection with such transfer and assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, it is hereby set forth that, if an assignment and transfer occurs, all accessory rights (akzessorische Nebenrechte) connected with or related to the Abstract Acknowledgement of Indebtedness, in particular any guaranty (Bürgschaft) or pledge (Pfandrecht), shall also be assigned or transferred to the respective assignee or transferee.

6.2		The Debtors shall not be entitled to assign or transfer all or any part of their rights or obligations or both hereunder.

6.3		Each of the Debtors hereby agrees and consents to any accession of any new party, and any change to the parties to the ABL Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document (by way of transfer, assignment or novation) or any transfer

- 8 -

or assignment to the terms as contemplated under the respective provisions in the ABL Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.

6.4		Each of the Debtors furthermore agrees that notwithstanding any such accession, change, transfer or assignment, this Agreement shall remain in full force and shall continue to secure the Secured Obligations for the benefit of the Secured Parties or any assignee, transferee, or any other successor in the same manner as if such assignee, transferee, or any other successor in title had been named in this (a) Agreement or (b) the ABL Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document, respectively, instead of, or in addition to, the (y) Collateral Agent or (z) the present parties to the ABL Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, respectively.

7.		WAIVERS

		Each of the Debtors hereby waives all defences (Einwendungen) it may have, including the defences of revocation (Anfechtbarkeit), set-off (Aufrechenbarkeit) and comparable defences under foreign law. The waiver shall not apply to set-off with counterclaims that are uncontested (unbestritten) or based on an unappealable court decision (rechtskräftig festgestellt).

8.		SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

		All covenants, promises and agreements of each of the Debtors hereunder shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties and their successors and assigns.

9.		CONTRACT FOR BENEFIT OF THIRD PARTIES

		This Agreement constitutes a contract in favor of the Lenders and the Secured Parties as third party beneficiaries pursuant to § 328 (1) of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch BGB) so that each such Lender and Secured Party shall, subject to any limitations provided for in the ABL Credit Agreement which may require action by the Collateral Agent and subject to all provisions of this Agreement, be entitled to claim performance of the obligations assumed hereby directly from and against the Debtors.

10.		SUBORDINATION

		Each Debtor hereby agrees that any existing or future claim of any of them against another Loan Party or Debtor or any of their direct or indirect shareholders or affiliates of such shareholders is hereby subordinated to the claims against the Lenders, the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent under the ABL Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and this Agreement

- 9 -

(Rangrücktritt von Konzernforderungen) and, after an Event of Default as defined under the ABL Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, such claims of any Debtor, if the Collateral Agent so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by such Debtor as trustee for the Lenders and the other Secured Parties and be paid over to the Collateral Agent for payment to the Lenders and the Secured Parties on account of the indebtedness of the relevant Debtor but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of such Debtor under the other provisions of this Agreement.

11.		INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AND ABL CREDIT AGREEMENT

		Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are subject to (a) the provisions of the intercreditor agreement, dated on or about December 17, 2010 (the Intercreditor Agreement), among the grantors party thereto; Bank of America, N.A., as Revolving Credit Administrative Agent and Revolving Credit Collateral Agent; and Bank of America, N.A., as Term Loan Administrative Agent and ABL Collateral Agent (each term as defined therein) and (b) the provisions of section 11.22 of the ABL Credit Agreement; for the avoidance of doubt, the in rem aspects of the security granted under this Agreement shall be exclusively governed by this Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Except as provided for in this paragraph, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the ABL Credit Agreement, including Article X thereof, shall govern and control the exercise of remedies by Collateral Agent.

12.		TAX

		The provisions of Sections 2.12 (with respect to Taxes), 2.15, 2.16 and 7.10 of the ABL Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated, mutatis mutandis, and shall apply to this Agreement, the parties hereto and the Secured Parties as if set forth herein.

Global Assignment Agreement / Novelis Deutschland GmbH

2.2		The assignment under Section 2.1 does not extend to any and all of the claims and rights that are assigned by the Assignor to Novelis AG under the Receivables Purchase Agreement (the Excluded Receivables). Any rights that are not effectively transferred thereunder, whether as a result of a termination of the Receivables Purchase Agreement or otherwise, shall, however, be assigned to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, to the extent such receivables are subject to extended retention of title arrangements, Clause 6 hereof shall apply.

2.3		The Collateral Agent hereby accepts the assignment of the Receivables.

2.4		Subject to Clause 8.1, the present Receivables existing at the date of this Agreement shall pass to the Collateral Agent on the date of this Agreement and any future Receivables shall pass to the Collateral Agent on the date such Receivables come into existence or are acquired by the Assignor (whichever is earlier in time).

4.4		For the sake of clarification, the transfer under Clause 4.3 shall in no way limit the generality of the assignment under Clause 2.

6.		ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES SUBJECT TO EXTENDED RETENTION OF TITLE

6.1		If Receivables are subject to extended retention of title arrangements (verlängerter Eigentumsvorbehalt), the assignment of such Receivables to the Collateral Agent shall only become effective upon extinction of the respective retention of title arrangements. As long as any person is only partly entitled to Receivables as a result of such persons retention of title arrangements, the assignment of such Receivables to the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be limited to that part of the Receivables to which the Assignor is the holder. The other part of the Receivables will transfer to

Global Assignment Agreement / Novelis Deutschland GmbH

		the Collateral Agent at such time as that part is no longer subject to any such retention of title arrangements.

6.2		The Assignor hereby assigns to the Collateral Agent, who accepts such assignments, its respective rights to reassignment of those Receivables that are assigned to a person on the basis of retention of title arrangements as well as any contingent claims to the transfer of all proceeds paid out to such person, together with all rights pertaining thereto.

8.		DISPOSALS OVER RECEIVABLES

8.1		In relation to the debtor, the Assignor shall be authorized (ermächtigt) to collect (einziehen) the Receivables in its ordinary course of business, and to exercise the Ancillary Rights. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to revoke the authorization

Global Assignment Agreement / Novelis Deutschland GmbH

		granted under this Clause 8.1 at any time after any of the events described in Clauses 9.1 and 9.5, or if any of the Termination Events (as defined in Section 5.9 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement) has occurred.

8.2		Except for the existing Collection Arrangements, the selling of Receivables by way of a sale factoring transaction regardless of whether on a recourse or on a non-recourse basis (unechtes und echtes Factoring) and similar types of transactions, including but not limited to securitizations, requires the Collateral Agents prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld. This does not apply to a sale under the Receivables Purchase Agreement to the extent the Assignor is entitled to sell and transfer Receivables thereunder pursuant to Clause 8.1. For the avoidance of doubt, any further restrictions imposed under the Loan Documents shall remain unaffected thereby.

9.		REALISATION OF THE COLLATERAL

9.1		The Collateral shall become immediately enforceable if an Event of Default is continuing and any of the Secured Obligations have not been paid when due and payable, and the Collateral Agent gives notice to the Assignor that the Collateral in question is enforceable. After the Collateral has become enforceable, the Collateral Agent may in its absolute discretion enforce all or any part of this Collateral in any manner it sees fit.

9.2		Upon revocation of the authorization granted pursuant to Clause 8.1 above, the Assignor shall be obligated, upon request of the Collateral Agent, to notify debtor, borrowers under Inter-Company Loans and insurers of the assignment in writing substantially in the form of Schedule 1.

9.3		The realization (Verwertung) of the Collateral (or any part thereof) shall not require a prior court ruling or any other enforceable title (vollstreckbarer Titel).

Such Realization Notice shall in particular not be required, if:

Global Assignment Agreement / Novelis Deutschland GmbH

	9.5.1		the Assignor or any of the Borrowers ceases to make payments to third parties generally (seine Zahlungen einstellt within the meaning of Section 17 (2), Sentence 2 of the German Insolvency Regulation (Insolvenzordnung));

10.		LIMITATION OF ENFORCEMENT

10.1		Subject to Clause 10.2 through Clause 10.6 below, the Collateral Agent shall not enforce the Collateral to the extent (i) the Collateral secures obligations of one of the Assignors shareholders or of an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of a shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (other than a Subsidiary of the Assignor or the Assignor itself), and (ii) the enforcement of the Collateral for such obligations would reduce, in violation of Section 30 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbHG), the net assets (assets minus liabilities minus provisions and liability reserves (Reinvermögen), in each case as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) as consistently applied by the Assignor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluß gemäß § 42 GmbHG, ff 242, 264 HGB)) of the Assignor to an amount that is insufficient to maintain its registered share capital (Stammkapital) (or would increase an existing shortage in its net assets below its registered share capital); provided that for the purpose of determining the relevant registered share capital and the net assets, as the case may be:

	10.1.1		the amount of any increase of the Assignors registered share capital (Stammkapital) implemented after the date of this Agreement that is effected without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent shall be deducted from the registered share capital of the Assignor;

	10.1.2		any loans provided to the Assignor by a direct or indirect shareholder or an affiliate thereof (other than a Subsidiary of the Assignor) shall be disregarded and not accounted for as a liability to the extent that such loans are subordinated pursuant to Section 39(1) Nr. 1 through Nr. 5 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) or subordinated in any other way by law or contract;

Global Assignment Agreement / Novelis Deutschland GmbH

	10.1.3		any shareholder loans, other loans and contractual obligations and liabilities incurred by the Assignor in violation of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents shall be disregarded and not accounted for as liabilities;

	10.1.4		any assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value that, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, is significantly lower than their market value and that are not necessary for the business of the Assignor (nicht betriebsnotwendig) shall be accounted for with their market value; and

	10.1.5		the assets of the Assignor will be assessed at liquidation values (Liquidationswerte) if, at the time the managing directors prepare the balance sheet in accordance with paragraph (b) below and absent the demand a positive going concern prognosis (positive Fortbestehensprognose) cannot be established.

10.2

The limitations set out in Clause 10.1 only apply:

	10.2.1		if and to the extent that the managing directors of the Assignor have confirmed in writing to the Collateral Agent within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement under this Agreement the value of the Collateral which cannot be enforced without causing the net assets of the Assignor to fall below its registered share capital, or increase an existing shortage in net assets below its registered share capital (taking into account the adjustments set out above) and such confirmation is supported by a current balance sheet and other evidence satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties raises any objections against that confirmation within five (5) Business Days after its receipt; or

	10.2.2		if, within twenty (20) Business Days after an objection under paragraph (A) has been raised by the Collateral Agent or a Secured Party, the Collateral Agent receives a written audit report (Auditors Determination) prepared at the expense of the Assignor by a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation that is appointed by the Assignor and reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, to the extent such report identifies the amount by which the net assets of the Assignor are necessary to maintain its registered share capital as at the date of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement (taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Auditors Determination shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer

Global Assignment Agreement / Novelis Deutschland GmbH

Buchführung) as consistently applied by the Assignor in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet. The Auditors Determination shall be binding for all Parties except for manifest error.

10.3		In any event, the Collateral Agent, for and on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled to enforce the Collateral up to those amounts that are undisputed between them and the Assignor or determined in accordance with Clause 10.1 and Clause 10.2. In respect of the exceeding amounts, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to further pursue the Secured Parties claims (if any) and the Assignor shall be entitled to provide evidence that the excess amounts are necessary to maintain its registered share capital (calculated as at the date of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement and taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Collateral Agent is entitled to pursue those parts of the Collateral that are not enforced by operation of Clause 10.1 above at any subsequent point in time. This Clause 10 shall apply again as of the time such additional enforcements are made.

10.4		Clause 10.1 shall not apply as to the amount of Loans borrowed and passed on (whether by way of shareholder loan or equity contribution) to the Assignor or any of its Subsidiaries as long as the respective shareholder loan is outstanding or the respective equity contribution has not been dissolved or otherwise repaid, but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any purchase price payment received by the Assignor under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

10.5		The limitations provided for in Clause 10.1 above shall not apply where (i) the Assignor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) recourse claim (Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) vis-à-vis the relevant shareholder or (ii) a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) or a profit and loss pooling agreement (Gewinnabführungsvertrag) is or will be in existence with the Assignor and the Assignor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) compensation claim (Ausgleichsanspruch).

10.6		Should it become legally permissible for managing directors of a German GmbH (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, Limited Liability Company) to enter into guarantees in support of obligations of their shareholders without limitations, the limitations set forth in Clause 10.1 shall no longer apply. Should any such guarantees become subject to legal restrictions that are less stringent than the limitations set forth in Clause 10.1 above, such less stringent limitations shall apply. Otherwise, Clause 10.1 shall remain unaffected by changes in applicable law.

Global Assignment Agreement / Novelis Deutschland GmbH

11.		WAIVER OF ASSIGNORS DEFENSES AND OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS

11.1		The Assignor hereby waives all defenses against enforcement that may be raised on the basis of potential avoidance (Anfechtbarkeit) and set-off (Aufrechenbarkeit) of the Secured Obligations. This waiver shall not apply to a set-off with counterclaims that are (i) uncontested (unbestritten) or (ii) based on a binding non- appealable court decision (rechtskräftig festgestellt).

11.2		If the Collateral is enforced, or if the Assignor has discharged any of the Secured Obligations (or any part of them), no rights of the Secured Parties shall pass to the Assignor by subrogation or otherwise. Further, the Assignor shall not at any time before, on or after an enforcement of the Collateral and as a result of the Assignor entering into this Agreement, be entitled to demand indemnification or compensation from any Borrower, Guarantor or any of its affiliates or to assign any of these claims.

12.		RELEASE OF THE COLLATERAL

12.1		Upon full and final satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent shall at the cost and expense of the Assignor reassign the Collateral to Assignor and surrender the surplus proceeds, if any, resulting from any realization of the Collateral to the Assignor. This shall not apply to the extent that the Collateral Agent has to surrender the Collateral or such proceeds to a third party who is entitled to the Collateral or to such proceeds. If the Collateral Agent is authorized to release in whole or in part any assigned collateral under both the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the ABL Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent is authorized to release the Collateral under this Agreement.

12.2		Prior to the full and final satisfaction of all the Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent shall only be obligated to release or surrender the Collateral or any part thereof and/or the surplus proceeds, if any, resulting from any realization of the Collateral, if and to the extent, applicable law of the Federal Republic of Germany requires such release. If the Collateral Agent is required to release collateral under applicable law of the Federal Republic of Germany, it may, however, decide, in its reasonable discretion, to release other collateral than the Collateral in order to comply with such requirement.

12.3		In addition to those valuation procedures stated in any other document constituting security interests in respect of the Secured Obligations, the Assignor and the Collateral Agent agree that solely for the purpose of determining the realizable value

Global Assignment Agreement / Novelis Deutschland GmbH

		of the Collateral the following valuation procedures shall apply: Purely for purposes of calculating the realizable value of Receivables, such Receivables which (i) are subject to a prohibition on assignment or require third party consent, (ii) are subject to set-off or to a defense because of non-performance or partial performance of the underlying contractual obligation or (iii) are governed by a law other than German law and have not been validly assigned to the Collateral Agent under such law shall not be taken into account. Receivables (other than the aforementioned) and Inter-Company Loans shall be valued at their nominal value minus 10% to account for the risk of non-recovery, provided, however, that the Assignor or the Collateral Agent may demand a reassessment of the realizable value of all or part of the Collateral if in their reasonable opinion there have been material changes (which are not temporary changes) with respect to the value of all or part of the Collateral which justify such reassessment. Where no realizable value of the Collateral is determined hereunder, the Assignor or the Collateral Agent may demand that an agreement on valuation of such Collateral for the purpose hereof is reached whereby the Assignor and the Collateral Agent shall base such valuation on the fair market value of such Collateral and shall take account in such assessment of any risk of a change in realizable value of such Collateral and of any loss on forced disposal of such Collateral by making reasonable deductions therefore.

2.3		In the event that the Assignor maintains or will maintain a current account arrangement (Kontokorrent) with any debtor of the Receivables, the assignment by the Assignor includes all claims from any existing or future current account balances, the right to determine and demand payment of the net balance and the right to terminate the current account relationship. The Assignor shall not enter into any further current account arrangements without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, except for such current account arrangements in which the Assignor can demand payment of the net balance at any time.

2.4		If payments in respect of the Receivables are made by cheque or bill of exchange, the ownership in the documents shall pass to the Collateral Agent upon the respective Assignor acquiring such ownership, and the Assignor hereby assigns to the Collateral Agent in advance any of its rights arising therefrom as security for the Secured Obligations. Physical delivery of cheques and bills of exchange to the Collateral Agent shall be replaced by an undertaking of the Assignor to hold such cheques and bills of exchange in gratuitous custody (unentgeltliche Verwahrung) for the Collateral Agent or, if the Assignor does not obtain actual possession of such documents, the Assignor hereby assigns to the Collateral Agent in advance all of its claims for delivery thereof against third parties as security for the Secured Obligations.

ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER OF ANCILLARY RIGHTS

3.1		All collateral securing the Receivables, any other ancillary rights in relation to the Receivables and all rights arising out of or in connection with the transactions underlying the Receivables (collectively the Ancillary Rights and collectively with the Receivables, the Collateral) shall hereby be transferred to the Collateral Agent upon the assignment as of the date specified in Clause 2.2, to the extent such rights are not automatically transferred to the Collateral Agent by operation of Section 401 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch). Among other things, this includes the assignment of pledges over bank accounts that are agreed by Novelis Deutschland GmbH for the benefit of the Assignor to secure certain of the Receivables as well as all rights and claims of the Assignor under a trust relationship with respect to bank accounts held by Novelis Deutschland GmbH with Commerzbank AG and/or Deutsche Bank AG that is agreed on or about the date hereof.

3.2		Upon request of the Collateral Agent, the Assignor shall take all reasonable actions and make all declarations to transfer the Ancillary Rights held by the Assignor to the Collateral Agent.

4.		DELIVERY OF UPDATED RECEIVABLES LISTS

4.1		The Assignor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent on the date hereof and subsequently upon request and, in any event, on each Reconciliation Date, an updated list of Receivables (the Updated Receivables List). The Assignor shall further deliver Aged Debtor Lists; the first Aged Debtor List, if it has not been provided before, shall be delivered by the Assignor within thirty (30) days hereof and thereafter Aged Debtor Lists shall be delivered by the Assignor to the Collateral Agent upon the request of the Agent and, in any event, at least annually.

4.2		The Updated Receivables List shall be delivered in the same form as the Receivables List.

4.3		Each delivery of an Updated Receivables List, of an Aged Debtor List, or of the Receivables List, as the case may be, by the Assignor shall constitute an agreement as to the transfer (Abtretung) of the Receivables listed in such Updated Receivables List, Aged Debtor List or Receivables List by the Assignor to the Collateral Agent. The Updated Receivables List and the Aged Debtor List shall be delivered by email, or by an electronic data carrier (in such form as agreed between the Collateral Agent and Assignor).

4.4		For the sake of clarification, the transfer under Clause 4.3 shall in no way limit the generality of the assignment under Clause 2. In particular, if for any reason whatsoever any Receivable has not been listed in the Updated Receivables List or the Aged Debtor List, then the assignment of the Receivables under Clause 2 shall not be affected thereby.

4.5		Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Assignor shall upon the request of the Collateral Agent deliver to the Collateral Agent an Updated Receivables List.

4.6		To the extent the Assignor has instructed a third party with its bookkeeping or data processing, it hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to obtain the Updated Receivables Lists directly from such third party in its own name and at the Assignors costs. Assignors obligation to deliver the Updated Receivables List personally shall not be affected hereby.

5.		EXTENDED OR BROADENED RESERVATION OF TITLE

5.1		To the extent that Receivables are or will become subject to customary extended or broadened reservation of title arrangement (verlängerter oder erweiterter Eigentumsvorbehalt) between the Assignor and its supplier (Lieferant), the assignment of these Receivables shall be agreed immediately but be subject to the extinction or discharge of the retention of the title. To the extent the supplier is only partly entitled to the Receivables, the assignment of the Receivables shall be agreed

with immediate effect with respect to an amount equal to the part of the Receivables to which the Assignor is entitled and the assignment of the other part shall be subject to the extended or broadened reservation of title.

5.2		To the extent that the Assignor is entitled to a re-assignment of a claim by a supplier pursuant to an extended or broadened reservation of title or the proceeds of a sale which the supplier has received, the Assignor hereby assigns to the Collateral Agent all rights to such claims together with any ancillary rights attached thereto.

5.3		The Assignor shall, where appropriate and in the ordinary course of its business, terminate any extended or broadened reservation of title arrangements by paying the purchase price to the relevant supplier. The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to pay the purchase price or part thereof on the part and at the costs of the Assignor itself in order to terminate such extended transfer of title arrangement.

5.4		The Assignor hereby assigns to the Collateral Agent any claims that it currently has or will have in the future against such supplier in the event that the supply arrangement is terminated or not performed properly, in particular claims to return of payments already made and claims to damages.

6.		NOTIFICATION OF ASSIGNMENTS AND TERMINATION OF CURRENT ACCOUNT ARRANGEMENTS

6.1		Pursuant to Section 7.2, the Collateral Agent (or the Collateral Agents designee, assignee or pledgee) may from time to time give notices to each Account Debtor (other than the Excluded Account Debtors), and terminate any current account arrangements entered into with the relevant Account Debtor. To this effect, the Assignor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent no later than 10 Business Days after the execution of this Agreement 10 notarially certified and 10 uncertified certificates in the form of Schedule 1 (one half of each in the English language and in the German language) of this Agreement, duly printed on its headed paper and executed by authorized signatory/ies. Each notification made by the Collateral Agent (or any of its designees or subsequent assignees or pledgees) in accordance with this Clause 6. 1 may be accompanied by a simple or a notarially confirmed photocopy of such certificate or a certificate in the form of Schedule 2 or a German language version thereof.

6.2		The Assignor shall immediately after the execution of this Agreement notify Novelis Deutschland GmbH of the assignments agreed herein.

7.		SPECIFIC AGREEMENTS WITH RESPECT TO THE PURCHASED RECEIVABLES

7.1		The Assignor shall not waive, amend, supplement, or modify the Receivables Purchase Agreement, or exercise any discretionary rights thereunder, or agree to do any of the foregoing (including without limitation approving any Qualified Legal Opinion thereunder, revising the list of Qualified Jurisdictions thereunder or designation of the Collection Account thereunder), without the express written consent of the Collateral Agent. The Assignor shall, upon request of the Collateral Agent (which request may be delivered in the sole discretion of Collateral Agent), exercise its rights under the Receivables Purchase Agreement (including, without limitation, with respect to requests for documentation permitted thereunder) in accordance with the instructions of the Collateral Agent; provided that any request to give notice to Account Debtors (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) shall be subject to the applicable limitations of Clauses 7.2 to 7.4 below. As soon as practicable following the closing of the Credit Agreement and in any event within 90 days thereafter, the Assignor shall establish a Collection Account (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) satisfactory to the Collateral Agent for each currency in which Purchased Receivables are received by Novelis Deutschland GmbH and such accounts shall be deemed Assigned Accounts and shall be assigned to the Collateral Agent pursuant to an account assignment agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and subject to a legal opinion in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. The Assignor shall provide Novelis Deutschland GmbH notice of the establishment of such accounts along with all relevant account information and the designation of such accounts as the exclusive Collection Accounts to which all Account Debtors (other than Excluded Account Debtors) shall be directed to make payment. The agreement establishing each such Collection Account shall provide that the account bank irrevocably and unconditionally waives rights in respect of and agrees not to make any set-off or deduction from the accounts or invoke any right of pledge in relation to the accounts, other than in relation to charges payable in connection with the maintenance of the accounts or other account charges or fees payable in the ordinary course of business. Subject to satisfaction of the foregoing requirements with respect to new Collection Accounts, the Collateral Agent agrees to permit the original Collection Account to remain a Collection Account until a Termination Event has occurred.

7.2		Upon the occurrence of a Notice Event of the type referred to in clause (i) of the definition thereof, the Assignor shall, or shall cause Novelis Deutschland GmbH to, within fifteen (15) days of written request from the Collateral Agent (which request may be delivered in the sole discretion of Collateral Agent), deliver notices to all Large Customers (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) of all Purchased Receivables of the transfer and assignment to the Assignor (as

contemplated by Section 5.6 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement) and may provide such notice to all Small Customers (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) of all Purchased Receivables; provided, that, if the Assignor and/or Novelis Deutschland GmbH does not within such period comply with such request, the Collateral Agent may (and is hereby authorized to) deliver such notices itself (and the cost of such delivery shall be reimbursed to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Clause 22.2 of this Agreement).

7.3		Upon the occurrence of a Notice Event of the type referred to in clause (ii) of the definition thereof, the Assignor shall, or shall cause Novelis Deutschland GmbH to, within fifteen (15) days of written request of the Collateral Agent (which request may be delivered in the sole discretion of Collateral Agent), deliver notices to all Account Debtors (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) of all Purchased Receivables of the transfer and assignment to the Assignor and the further assignment by the Assignor to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Clause 6 of this Agreement, together with designation of one or more new Collection Accounts (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) designated by the Collateral Agent; provided, that, the Collateral Agent may (and is hereby authorized to) deliver such notices itself (and the cost of such delivery shall be reimbursed to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 11 of this Agreement).

7.4		Until a Termination Event has occurred, the Collateral Agent agrees not to require any notice or consent under Section 4(c) of Annex B to the Receivables Purchase Agreement except to the extent a notice or consent is required to be obtained hereunder or under the Receivables Purchase Agreement for the related Receivable.

7.5		The Collateral Agent agrees (a) to limit the Required Data to the information required in connection with a Borrowing Base Certificate and (b) to permit the Assignor to grant waivers under Section 5.9(g) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, in each case unless an Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement or the Term Loan Credit Agreement.

7.6		The Assignor shall promptly deliver a copy of each notice and document to the Collateral Agent that it receives from the Seller or delivers to the Seller under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

8.		SECURED OBLIGATIONS

		The security created hereunder secures the payment of all Secured Obligations. The assignment shall also cover any future extension of the Secured Obligations and the Assignor herewith expressly agrees that the assignment shall secure the Secured Obligations as extended or increased from time to time.

9.		DISPOSAL OVER RECEIVABLES

9.1		In relation to the debtors, the Assignor shall be authorized (ermächtigt) to collect (einziehen) the Receivables in its ordinary course of business, including the right to waive (whether by agreement on forgiveness of debt (Erlassvertrag) or by negative acknowledgement of debt (negatives Schuldanerkenntnis)) Receivables in the ordinary course of business. The Assignor is authorized to delegate the authorization to collect to Novelis Deutschland GmbH. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to revoke the authorization granted under this Clause 9.1 at any time after any of the events described in Clauses 10.1 and 10.5 has occurred.

9.2		The sale of Receivables by way of a sale factoring transaction regardless of whether on a recourse or on a non-recourse basis (unechtes und echtes Factoring) and similar types of transactions, including but not limited to securitizations, requires the Collateral Agents prior written consent. For the avoidance of doubt, any further restrictions imposed under the Loan Documents shall remain unaffected thereby.

10.		REALISATION OF COLLATERAL

10.1		The Collateral shall become immediately enforceable if an Event of Default is continuing and any of the Secured Obligations have not been paid when due and payable, and the Collateral Agent gives notice to the Assignor that the Collateral in question is enforceable. After the Collateral has become enforceable, the Collateral Agent may in its absolute discretion enforce all or any part of this Collateral in any manner it sees fit.

10.2		Upon revocation of the authorization granted pursuant to Clause 9.1 above, the Assignor shall be obligated, upon request of the Collateral Agent, to notify debtors of the assignment in writing substantially in the form of Schedule 1.

10.3		The realization (Verwertung) of the Collateral (or any part thereof) shall not require a prior court ruling or any other enforceable title (vollstreckbarer Titel).

10.4		The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to realize the Collateral either in whole or in part in any legally permissible manner, in particular by collecting the Receivables.

10.5		The Collateral Agent shall give the Assignor at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice (Androhung) of the intention to realize any of the Collateral (the Realization Notice). Such Realization Notice is not necessary if the observance of the notice period will materially adversely affect the security interests of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties. Such Realization Notice shall in particular not be required, if:

	10.5.1		the Assignor or any of the Borrowers ceases to make payments to third parties generally (within the meaning of Section 190 para. 1 no. 2 of the Swiss Debt Collection and Bankruptcy Act);

	10.5.2		the Assignor or any of the Borrowers becomes over-indebted (within the meaning of Section 725 para. 2 of the Swiss Code of Obligations.

	10.5.3		the Assignor or any of the Borrowers files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over its assets;

	10.5.4		any third party files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over the assets of the Assignor or any of the Borrowers, provided such application is not unfounded (unbegründet); or

	10.5.5		a preliminary insolvency administrator (vorläufiger Insolvenzverwalter bzw. provisorischer Sachwalter) or an insolvency administrator (Insolvenzverwalter bzw. Sachwalter) or any similar kind of receiver, liquidator or administrator has been appointed over the assets of the Assignor or any of the Borrowers.

10.6		The Realization Notice pursuant to the first sentence of Clause 10.5 may be given to the Assignor at the same time any notice of acceleration in relation to any of the Secured Obligations is given to the Borrowers.

10.7		If the Collateral Agent decides not to enforce all of the Collateral, it shall be entitled to determine, in its sole discretion, which part of the Collateral shall be realized.

10.8		The Collateral Agent may take all measures and enter into all agreements with debtors of the Assignor or any third-party creditor which it considers reasonably necessary or expedient in connection with the realization of the Collateral taking into account the legitimate interest of the Assignor.

10.9		For the purpose of realizing the Collateral, the Assignor shall, upon the Collateral Agents request, promptly (unverzüglich) furnish the Collateral Agent with all documents of title and other relevant documents held by the Assignor and shall render all assistance which is necessary or expedient in respect of the realization of the Collateral.

10.10		Following the realization of all or part of the Collateral, the net proceeds (net proceeds shall mean proceeds less any taxes and costs) shall be used to satisfy the Secured Obligations.

11.		LIMITATION OF ENFORCEMENT

		If and to the extent (i) the obligations of the Assignor under this Agreement are for the exclusive benefit of the affiliates of the Assignor (except for the (direct or indirect)

subsidiaries of the Assignor) and (ii) that complying with such obligations would constitute a repayment of capital (Kapitalrückzahlung) or the payment of a (constructive) dividend (Dividendenausschüttung), then the limitations set forth in sections 7.12 (Swiss Guarantors) of each of the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the ABL Credit Agreement shall apply to any enforcement of the Collateral and to the proceeds of such enforcement.

12.		WAIVER OF ASSIGNORS DEFENSES AND OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS

12.1		The Assignor hereby waives all defenses against enforcement that may be raised on the basis of potential avoidance (Anfechtbarkeit) and set-off (Aufrechenbarkeit) of the Secured Obligations. This waiver shall not apply to a set-off with counterclaims that are (i) uncontested (unbestritten) or (ii) based on a binding non- appealable court decision (rechtskräftig festgestellt).

12.2		If the Collateral is enforced, or if the Assignor has discharged any of the Secured Obligations (or any part of them), no rights of the Secured Parties shall pass to the Assignor by subrogation or otherwise. Further, the Assignor shall not at any time before, on or after an enforcement of the Collateral and as a result of the Assignor entering into this Agreement, be entitled to demand indemnification or compensation from any Borrower, Guarantor or any of its affiliates or to assign any of these claims.

13.		RELEASE OF THE COLLATERAL

13.1		Upon full and final satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent shall at the cost and expense of the Assignor retransfer the Collateral to Assignor and surrender the surplus proceeds, if any, resulting from any realization of the Collateral to the Assignor. This shall not apply to the extent that the Collateral Agent has to surrender the Collateral or such proceeds to a third party who is entitled to the Collateral or to such proceeds. If the Collateral Agent is authorized to release in whole or in part any assigned collateral under both the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the ABL Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent is authorized to release the Collateral under this Agreement.

13.2		Prior to the full and final satisfaction of all the Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent shall only be obligated to release or surrender the Collateral or any part thereof and/or the surplus proceeds, if any, resulting from any realization of the Collateral, if and to the extent, applicable law of the Federal Republic of Germany requires such release. If the Collateral Agent is required to release collateral under applicable law of the Federal Republic of Germany, it may, however, decide, in its reasonable discretion, to release other collateral than the Collateral in order to comply with such requirement.

13.3		In addition to those valuation procedures stated in any other document constituting security interests in respect of the Secured Obligations, the Assignor and the Collateral Agent agree that solely for the purpose of determining the realizable value of the Collateral the following valuation procedures shall apply: Purely for purposes of calculating the realizable value of Receivables, such Receivables which (i) are subject to a prohibition on assignment or require third party consent, (ii) are subject to set-off or to a defense because of non-performance or partial performance of the underlying contractual obligation or (iii) are governed by a law other than German law and have not been validly assigned to the Collateral Agent under such law shall not be taken into account. Receivables (other than the aforementioned) and Inter-Company Loans shall be valued at their nominal value minus 10% to account for the risk of non-recovery, provided, however, that the Assignor or the Collateral Agent may demand a reassessment of the realizable value of all or part of the Collateral if in their reasonable opinion there have been material changes (which are not temporary changes) with respect to the value of all or part of the Collateral which justify such reassessment. Where no realizable value of the Collateral is determined hereunder, the Assignor or the Collateral Agent may demand that an agreement on valuation of such Collateral for the purpose hereof is reached whereby the Assignor and the Collateral Agent shall base such valuation on the fair market value of such Collateral and shall take account in such assessment of any risk of a change in realizable value of such Collateral and of any loss on forced disposal of such Collateral by making reasonable deductions therefore.

14.		DURATION AND INDEPENDENCE

14.1		In no event shall the Collateral be released before and unless all Secured Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and there is no amount outstanding under the Secured Obligations, whether for principal, interest, fees or other costs, expenses, charges or otherwise.

14.2		The Collateral shall provide a continuing security and, to the largest extent possible under applicable law, no change or amendment whatsoever in and to the Secured Obligations and to any document related to the Secured Obligations shall affect the validity of this Agreement nor shall it limit the obligations which are imposed on the Assignor hereunder.

14.3		This Agreement is in addition to, and independent of, any other security or guarantee the Collateral Agent may now or hereafter hold in respect of the Secured Obligations. None of such security or guarantee shall prejudice, or shall be prejudiced by, the Collateral in any way.

15.		REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

15.1		The Assignor represents and warrants (sichert zu) to the Collateral Agent by way of an independent guarantee (selbständiges Garantieversprechen) that:

	15.1.1		The execution and performance hereof do not and will not (i) violate any provision of law or the articles of association of the Assignor, any order of any court or governmental agency to which it is bound, (ii) violate in a material way any provision of any agreement or other instrument to which the Assignor is bound, (iii) be in any material way in conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any such agreement or other instrument, or (iv) result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any property or assets of any of the Assignor, except for liens created hereby.

	15.1.2		As long as this Agreement remains in force, the obligations of the Assignor hereunder are legal, valid, binding and enforceable against the Assignor in accordance with their terms subject to any qualification in any legal opinion rendered in relation thereto on or about the date of this Agreement.

	15.1.3		No consents, licenses, approvals or authorizations of, registrations with or declarations to any governmental authority are required in connection with the execution and performance hereof (other than any governmental authority that is a third party debtor of the Assignor).

	15.1.4		As long as this Agreement remains in force, the Receivables specified in the Receivables List are free from any right, claim, title, interest, pledge, lien or charge whatsoever or other encumbrances or any other third party rights as at the date specified on such list,except for Permitted Liens;

	15.1.5		it has the power to convey legal and beneficial ownership of the Purchased Receivables to the Collateral Agent;

	15.1.6		the assignment of each Purchased Receivable that is a Large Customer Receivable in the manner contemplated by this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Compliance Conditions) will be effective under the governing law of such Receivable to pass to the Collateral Agent full and unencumbered title thereto and the benefit thereof to the Collateral Agent and, no further act, condition or thing will be required to be done in connection therewith to enable the Collateral Agent to enforce payment of any such Receivable from the relevant Account Debtor in the jurisdiction of domicile of such Account Debtor;

	15.1.7		following assignment in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, each Large Customer Receivable will represent a valid claim by the Collateral Agent on the relevant Account Debtor, each Large Customer Receivable is or will be, as the case may be, debt, the rights in which can be transferred by way of assignment to the Collateral Agent and the assignment of each Large Customer Receivable in the manner contemplated by this Agreement is not contrary to the terms of such Large Customer Receivables;

	15.1.8		it has not (except to the Collateral Agent in the manner contemplated by this Agreement) assigned, transferred or otherwise disposed of any Purchased Receivable prior to the assignment to the Purchaser in the manner contemplated by this Agreement and the Assignor will not purport to further assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its rights in respect of any such Purchased Receivable;

	15.1.9		such Purchased Receivables can be segregated and identified for ownership purposes on any day;

	15.1.10		such Receivables are free and clear of any liens, security interests or other encumbrances, except as provided for in this Agreement and Permitted Liens and save for the rights of the relevant Account Debtor under each Supply Contract;

	15.1.11		such Purchased Receivables are evidenced by an invoice under the relevant Supply Contract which is sufficient to support a prima facie claim against the relevant Account Debtor;

	15.1.12		the performance of the terms of any such Supply Contract related to the Purchased Receivables or the exercise of any rights thereunder will not render such Supply Contract unenforceable in whole or in part or subject to any lien, right of rescission, counterclaim, set-off, defence or right of retention and, to the knowledge of the Assignor at the date hereof, no such lien, right of rescission, counterclaim, set-off, defence or right of retention has been asserted against the Assignor in respect thereof;

	15.1.13		at the date hereof it has not ceased payments within the meaning of Section 190 para. 1 no. 2 of the Swiss Debt Collection and Bankruptcy Act, nor is it over-indebted within the meaning of Section 725 para. no. 2 of the Swiss Code of obligations, or in terms of the Swiss generally accepted accounting principles (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung).

16.

In addition, the Assignor shall inform the third party promptly (unverzüglich) in writing of the Collateral Agents security interest and render to the Collateral Agent all assistance required or expedient to defend the Receivables. All costs and expenses reasonably incurred for defense measures by the Collateral Agent shall be borne by the Assignor. This shall also apply to the institution of legal action which the Collateral Agent considers necessary;

2.1.1

all machinery and equipment (including all machines, office equipment, computer hardware, office furniture), and all inventory (including goods on stock (Warenvorräte) and all other movable tangible assets (bewegliche Sachen)

	(A)		that are currently located within the Security Areas; or

	(B)		that will be located within the Security Areas in the future;

	2.1.2		the assets, including External Inventory, specified in the Asset List attached hereto as Schedule 1; and

	2.1.3		all further assets specified in any Updated Asset List in the future.

The assets referred to above, are herein referred to as the Security Assets.

2.2		If, at the time of the transfer, the Transferor only has co-ownership (Miteigentum) or an inchoate right (Anwartschaftsrecht) in any of the Security Assets, only such co-ownership or inchoate right shall be transferred to the Collateral Agent.

2.3		Ownership, co-ownership and any inchoate right to title in the Security Assets shall pass to the Collateral Agent

	2.3.1		on the date of the signing of this Agreement, for purposes of Clause 2.1.1(A) or 2.1.2;

			Each such transfer shall take effect without further action by either Party or any other person.

2.4		The Parties agree that, in the case of inchoate rights or any other contractual rights to claim transfer of title of any assets that constitute Security Assets, title shall pass directly from the Transferors respective supplier to the Collateral Agent. In the event that, not withstanding the provisions hereof, title in any Security Assets were to pass from a third party to the Transferor, the Transferor hereby transfers such title to the Collateral Agent as of the time of the acquisition of title by the Transferor and agrees to hold any such title in trust for the Collateral Agent until the transfer of title to the Collateral Agent takes effect.

2.5		The transfer of title to the Collateral Agent shall not be affected by the Transferor relocating any of the Security Assets to a location outside the Security Areas. The Transferors right to relocate any of the Internal Inventory to premises other than the Security Areas is subject to Clause 8 (Relocation of Internal Inventory) hereof.

2.6		The Collateral Agent hereby accepts the transfers and assignments made hereby.

2.7		To the extent External Inventory is not already identified in the Asset List, the Transferor undertakes (i) to provide the Collateral Agent on the date hereof with all available information in relation to all external sites held and operated by a third party where External Inventory is kept or deposited which is reasonably required in order to fulfill the requirements of the German Law principle of identification (Bestimmtheitsgrundsatz) with a view to grant security interest over the External Inventory by way of security transfer (Sicherungsübereignung) (the Information), and which shall be specified (if necessary) in terms of the requested type and quality of the Information in consultation with the Collateral Agent, and (ii) to grant security interest by way of security transfer

		(Sicherheitsübereignung) on the date hereof in relation to such External Inventory to the extent legally possible (in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent) taking into account the actual particularities at such external sites as evidenced by the Information. At the reasonable written request of the Collateral Agent, taking into account legitimate interests of the Transferor and without substantially interfering with reasonable commercial interests of the Transferor, the Transferor shall re-arrange the storage of External Inventory in order to safeguard the legitimate interests of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties. The Secured Parties acknowledge that inventory is, in parts, stored at premises of customers and that in such case, no security transfer can be demanded which would reasonably require the customers consent or cooperation.

3.		*DELIVERY (ÜBERGABE) OF SECURITY ASSETS*

		Delivery of physical possession (Besitz) of the Security Assets to the Collateral Agent is hereby replaced by the Transferor agreeing to hold the Security Assets in gratuitous custody (unentgeltliche Verwahrung) for the Collateral Agent. To the extent that any third party has or obtains possession of the Security Assets, the Transferor hereby assigns all present and future claims to possession (Herausgabeansprüche) of the Security Assets it has, or will acquire in the future, against such third party to the Collateral Agent.

4.		DELIVERY OF UPDATED ASSET LISTS

4.1		At the date hereof, the Transferor shall at its own expense provide the Collateral Agent with a full list reflecting the status as of November 30, 2010, of (i) the Internal Inventory located at the Security Areas and (ii) the External Inventory owned by it (the Asset List), such list to be attached hereto as Schedule 1.

4.2		The Transferor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent no later than the fifteenth Business Day of each calendar quarter an updated list (the Updated Asset List) as per the end of the preceding calendar quarter; such Updated Asset List shall be delivered for the first time as per the end of the first calendar quarter of 2011. Such Updated Asset List shall show all moveable assets owned by the respective Transferor at the date set out on the list. In addition, such Updated Asset List shall show all movable assets (if any), in which the respective Transferor has an inchoate right to title at the time of delivery of the list.

4.3		The Updated Asset List shall be delivered in the same form as the Asset List set out in Schedule 1 (Asset List).

4.4		Each delivery of an Updated Asset List by the Transferor shall constitute an agreement as to the transfer (Übereignung) of the Security Assets listed in such Updated Asset List and also an agreement as to the replacement of delivery according to Clause 3. At the Collateral Agents request, the Updated Asset List shall be delivered by email, by an electronic data carrier or in such other form as the Collateral Agent requires.

4.5		For the sake of clarification, the transfer under Clause 4.3 shall in no way limit the generality of the transfer under Clause 2. In particular, if for any reason whatsoever any Security Asset has not been set out in the Updated Asset List, then the transfer of the Security Assets under Clause 2 shall not be affected thereby.

4.6		Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Transferor shall, upon request of the Collateral Agent, deliver an Updated Asset List.

4.7		To the extent the Transferor has instructed a third party with its bookkeeping or data processing, it hereby authorises the Collateral Agent to obtain the Updated Asset Lists directly from such third party in its own name and at the Transferors costs. The Transferors obligation to deliver the Updated Asset List personally shall not be affected hereby.

5.		RETENTION OF TITLE

5.1		The Transferor shall, in the ordinary course of business, terminate any retention of title arrangements, including extended and broadened retention of title arrangements (verlängerte und erweiterte Eigentumsvorbehalte) by paying the purchase price to the relevant supplier. In the event that the Transferor fails to terminate any such persons interest, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to pay the purchase price or part thereof on behalf and at the costs of the Transferor in order to terminate such retention of title arrangement when such purchase price is due. The Transferor is entitled to enter into additional retention of title arrangements in the ordinary course of business insofar as such additional retention of title arrangements constitute Permitted Liens.

5.2		The Transferor hereby assigns to the Collateral Agent any claims that it currently has or will have in the future against such supplier, in particular, claims to transfer of the assets, claims in the event that the supply agreement is terminated or not performed properly, claims to return of payments already made and claims to damages.

5.3		Notwithstanding anything to contrary contained in (i) any individual purchase agreement entered into, or to be entered into, by the Transferor, or (ii) the general conditions of sale (Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen) to the Transferor, the Transferor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives vis-á-vis the Collateral Agent any retention of title rights or other security rights, if any, which it may otherwise have in respect of any assets that constitute Security Assets (except to the extent such waiver would cause the Transferor to breach its obligations in relation to such Security Assets.

6.		USE, LABELING AND TRANSFER OF THE SECURITY ASSETS

6.1		At the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent and if necessary to preserve legitimate interests of the Collateral Agent, each piece of Inventory shall at all times be labelled. Additionally, upon the Collateral Agents reasonable request, the Transferor shall label the relevant Inventory as being owned by the Collateral Agent for security purposes.

6.2		The Transferors books and records shall indicate the existence of the Security Interest in the exhibit (Anhang) to the Transferors Financial Statements and the Transferor shall refrain from any acts or omissions which could prevent third parties who may have a legitimate interest in obtaining knowledge of such Security Interest from obtaining knowledge thereof.

6.3		The Transferor shall at all times store and treat the Security Assets at its own expense with the proper diligence and care usually employed by an orderly merchant or ensure such treatment or storage by third parties and refrain from any acts or omissions which might result in a damage, other than an immaterial damage, or loss of the Security Assets, and maintain the Security Assets at all times in the ordinary course of business in a good state of repair, equivalent to its present condition (except for normal wear and tear), and to replace any damaged, destroyed or otherwise lost Security Assets in the ordinary course of business, taking into account the reasonable business interests of the Transferor.

7.		USE OF THE INVENTORY IN PRODUCTION PROCESS

7.1		Unless any Event of Default has occurred, the Transferor may use the Inventory in any production process carried on by the Transferor in a lawful manner in the ordinary course of business.

7.2		To the extent commercially justifiable, the Transferor will in exercising its rights under clause 7.1 above use its best efforts to ensure that the Collateral Agent will during the production process remain or become owner (Eigentümer), part owner (Miteigentümer) or have an inchoate right (Anwartschaftsrecht) in respect of the goods which are the result of such production process (such goods being hereafter referred to as New Product). If as a result of any production process carried out by the Transferor (whether or not by incorporation of the Inventory into a New Product) (Vermischung, Vermengung, Verarbeitung), the Transferor is no longer owner, part-owner or holder of an inchoate right of the New Product or the relevant Inventory, then as soon as the Transferor regains such rights, such rights shall automatically be deemed to be transferred to the Collateral Agent. If as result of any production process carried out by the Transferor the Transferor co-mingles goods or materials owned by it with goods or materials owned by third parties and the Transferor thereby becomes part-owner or holder of the resulting New Product of any inchoate right, then, as soon as the Transferor gains such rights such rights shall be deemed to be transferred to the Collateral Agent.

7.3		To the extent that the Transferor has the right to demand transfer of ownership, part ownership or inchoate rights, the Transferor hereby assigns such rights to the Collateral Agent who accepts such assignments.

7.4		To the extent ownership, part-ownership or any inchoate right in the New Products passes on to the Collateral Agent, the transfer of possession in such New Products will be substituted by the Transferor holding them in gratuitous custody (unentgeltliche Verwahrung) for the Collateral Agent.

7.5		If any third party is in, or acquires, possession of any New Product, the Transferor hereby assigns to the Collateral Agent its present and future claims to demand restitution (Herausgabe) thereof from such third party and the Collateral Agent accepts such assignment.

7.6		The Transferor hereby also assigns to the Collateral Agent all present or future claims it may have against a third party in respect of the production process of the Inventory or the New Product resulting therefrom and the Collateral Agent accepts such assignment.

7.7		In the event that any production process with respect to the Inventory is or shall be carried out by a third party on behalf of the Transferor, the Transferor shall procure, at its own expense, that such production process is legally documented with the care of an orderly merchant and in particular, without limitation, provide that the Collateral Agent remains or becomes owner (Eigentümer), part-owner (Miteigentümer) or have an inchoate right in respect of the New Product, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

8.		RELOCATION OF INTERNAL INVENTORY

		The Collateral Agent hereby authorizes the Transferor to store any Internal Inventory at new premises (the New Premises), provided that, in the event that such New Premises is used for more than 6 consecutive months, the Transferor shall immediately notify the Collateral Agent of its intention of such relocation and deliver a list setting out the respective Internal Inventory and a detailed site plan of such New Premises following which the Internal Inventory is readily identifiable to the satisfaction of the Collateral Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, by delivery of such site maps, the Transferor designates such New Premises as Security Areas.

9.		INSURANCE OF THE COLLATERAL

		The Transferor shall at all times prior to the retransfer of the Collateral to the Transferor pursuant to Clause 15.1 (unless otherwise provided in the Credit Agreements):

9.1		Cause all Security Assets of an insurable nature to be insured and kept insured; and

9.2		as soon as is reasonably practicable following receipt for a request by the Collateral Agent produce to the Collateral Agent original or duplicate copies or sufficient extracts of every policy of insurance together with the premium receipts or other evidence of the payment thereof.

10.		SECURED OBLIGATIONS

10.1		The security created hereunder secures the payment of all Secured Obligations. The security created hereunder shall also cover any future extension of the Secured Obligations and the Assignor herewith expressly agrees that the assignment shall secure the Secured Obligations as extended or increased from time to time.

10.2		The Collateral Agent shall hold (a) any security over any Revolving Credit Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) granted hereunder (i) first, as security for any Secured Obligations owing to the Secured Parties (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) and (ii) second, as security for any Secured Obligations owing to the Secured Parties (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement), and (b) any security over any Pari Passu Priority Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) granted hereunder (i) first, as security for any Secured Obligations owing to the Secured Parties (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) and (ii) second, as security for any Secured Obligations owing to the Secured Parties (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement), in each case in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

11.		DISPOSAL OVER SECURITY ASSETS; TRANSFER OF POSSESSION OF SECURITY ASSETS TO COLLATERAL AGENT

		In relation to third parties, the Transferor shall be authorised (ermächtigt) to dispose over (verfügen) its Security Assets in the ordinary course of business. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to revoke the authorisation granted under this Clause 11 and may request transfer of possession of the Security Assets to it by notice to the Transferor at any time after any of the events described in Clauses 12.1 or 12.6 has occurred.

12.		REALISATION OF THE SECURITY ASSETS

12.1		The Security Assets shall become immediately enforceable if any Event of Default has occurred, is continuing, unwaived and unremedied and any of the Secured Obligations have not been paid when due and payable and the Collateral Agent gives notice to the Transferor that the Security Assets in question are enforceable. After the Security Assets have become enforceable, the Collateral Agent may in its

		absolute discretion enforce all or any part of the Security Assets in any manner it sees fits.

12.2		The realisation (Verwertung) of the Security Assets (or any part thereof) shall not require a prior court ruling or any other enforceable title (vollstreckbarer Titel).

12.3		The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to realise the Security Assets either in whole or in part in any legally permissible manner, in particular by public auction (Versteigerung) or private sale (freier Verkauf).

12.4		If all or part of the Security Assets are sold in a public auction, the public auction may be held at any place in Germany determined by the Collateral Agent. The public announcement of such auction shall be made (at the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent) in one or more regional or supra regional (überregional) German daily newspapers (Tageszeitungen) and in the German Federal Gazette (Bundesanzeiger). The public announcement shall not be required to be made more than 10 Business Days before the date of the public auction.

12.5		The Collateral Agent shall be permitted to purchase any of the Security Assets realised in accordance with the provisions of Clause 12.1.

12.6		The Collateral Agent shall give the Transferor at least 10 Business Days prior written notice (Androhung) of the intention to realise any of the Security Assets (the Realization Notice). Such Realization Notice is not necessary if the observance of the notice period will materially adversely affect the security interests of the Collateral Agent. Such Realization Notice shall in particular not be required, if:

	12.6.1		the Transferor or any of the Borrowers cease to make payments to third parties generally (seine Zahlungen einstellt within the meaning of Section 17 (2), Sentence 2 of the German Insolvency Regulation (Insolvenzordnung));

	12.6.2		the Transferor or any of the Borrowers becomes over-indebted (überschuldet within the meaning of Section 19 of the German Insolvency Regulation), or illiquid (zahlungsunfähig within the meaning of Section 17 of the German Insolvency Regulation), or its illiquidity is imminent

			(drohende Zahlungsunfähigkeit within the meaning of Section 18 of the German Insolvency Regulation);

	12.6.3		the Transferor or any of the Borrowers files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over its assets;

	12.6.4		any third party files an application for the institution of insolvency proceedings or similar proceedings over the assets of the Transferor or any of the Borrowers, provided such application is not unfounded (unbegründet); or

	12.6.5		a preliminary insolvency administrator (vorläufiger Insolvenzverwalter) or an insolvency administrator (Insolvenzverwalter) or any similar kind of receiver, liquidator or administrator has been appointed over the assets of the Transferor or any of the Borrowers.

12.7		The Realization Notice pursuant to the first sentence of Clause 12.6 may be given to the Transferor at the same time any notice of acceleration in relation to any of the Secured Obligations is given to the Borrower.

12.8		If the Collateral Agent decides not to enforce all of the Security Assets, it shall be entitled to determine, in its sole discretion, which of the Security Assets shall be realised.

12.9		The Collateral Agent may take all measures and enter into all agreements with suppliers of the Transferor or any third-party creditor which it considers reasonably necessary or expedient in connection with the realisation of the Security Assets, taking into account the legitimate interests of the Transferor.

12.10		For the purpose of realising the Security Assets, the Transferor shall, upon the Collateral Agents request, promptly (unverzüglich) furnish the Collateral Agent with all documents of title and other relevant documents held by the Transferor, and shall render all assistance which is necessary or expedient in respect of the realisation of the Security Assets.

12.11

Following the realisation of all or part of the Security Assets, the net proceeds (net proceeds shall mean proceeds less any taxes and costs) shall be used to satisfy the Secured Obligations.

13.		LIMITATION OF ENFORCEMENT

13.1		Subject to Clause 13.2 through Clause 13.4 below, the Collateral Agent shall not enforce the Security Assets to the extent (i) the Collateral secures obligations of one of the Transferors shareholders or of an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of a shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (other than a Subsidiary of the Transferor or the Transferor itself), and (ii) the enforcement of the Collateral for such obligations would reduce, in violation of Section 30 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbHG), the net assets (assets minus liabilities minus provisions and liability reserves (Reinvermögen), in each case as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) as consistently applied by the Transferor in preparing its unconsolidated balance sheets (Jahresabschluß gemäß § 42 GmbHG, §§ 242, 264 HGB) of the Transferor to an amount that is insufficient to maintain its registered share capital (Stammkapital) (or would increase an existing shortage in its net assets below its registered share capital); provided that for the purpose of determining the relevant registered share capital and the net assets, as the case may be:

	13.1.1		The amount of any increase of the Transferors registered share capital (Stammkapital) implemented after the date of this Agreement that is effected without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent shall be deducted from the registered share capital of the Transferor;

	13.1.2		any loans provided to the Transferor by a direct or indirect shareholder or an affiliate thereof (other than a Subsidiary of the Transferor) shall be disregarded and not accounted for as a liability to the extent that such loans are subordinated pursuant to Section 39(1) Nr. 1 through Nr. 5 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) or subordinated in any other way by law or contract;

	13.1.3		any shareholder loans, other loans and contractual obligations and liabilities incurred by the Transferor in violation of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents shall be disregarded and not accounted for as liabilities;

	13.1.4		any assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value that, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, is significantly lower than their market value and that are not necessary for the business of the Transferor (nicht betriebsnotwendig) shall be accounted for with their market value; and

	13.1.5		the assets of the Transferor will be assessed at liquidation values (Liquidationswerte) if, at the time the managing directors prepare the balance sheet in accordance with Clause 13.2.1 below and absent the demand a positive going concern prognosis (positive Fortbestehensprognose) cannot be established.

13.2 The limitations set out in Clause 13.1 only apply:

	13.2.1		if and to the extent that the managing directors of the Transferor have confirmed in writing to the Collateral Agent within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of a Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement under this Agreement the value of the Collateral which cannot be enforced without causing the net assets of the Transferor to fall below its registered share capital, or increase an existing shortage in net assets below its registered share capital (taking into account the adjustments set out above) and such confirmation is supported by a current balance sheet and other evidence satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties raises any objections against that confirmation within five (5) Business Days after its receipt; or

	13.2.2		if, within twenty (20) Business Days after an objection under Clause 13.2.1 has been raised by the Collateral Agent or a Secured Party, the Collateral Agent receives a written audit report (Auditors Determination) prepared at the expense of the Transferor by a firm of auditors of international standing and reputation that is appointed by the Transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, to the extent such report identifies the amount by which the net assets of the Transferor are necessary to maintain its registered share capital as at the date of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement (taking into account the adjustments set out

			above). The Auditors Determination shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer Buchführung) as consistently applied by the Transferor in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet. The Auditors Determination shall be binding for all Parties except for manifest error.

	13.2.3		In any event, the Collateral Agent, for and on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled to enforce the Collateral up to those amounts that are undisputed between them and the Transferor or determined in accordance with Clause 13.1 and Clause 13.2. In respect of the exceeding amounts, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to further pursue the Secured Parties claims (if any) and the Transferor shall be entitled to provide evidence that the excess amounts are necessary to maintain its registered share capital (calculated as at the date of the Realization Notice or the commencement of enforcement and taking into account the adjustments set out above). The Collateral Agent is entitled to enforce those parts of the Collateral that are not enforced by operation of Clause 13.1 above at any subsequent point in time. This Clause 13 shall apply again as of the time such additional enforcement is made.

	13.2.4		The limitations provided for in Clause 13.1 above shall not apply where (i) the Transferor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) recourse claim (Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) vis-à-vis the relevant shareholder or (ii) a domination agreement (Beherrschungsvertrag) or a profit and loss pooling agreement (Gewinnabführungsvertrag) is or will be in existence with the Transferor, and the Transferor has a fully valuable (vollwertig) compensation claim (Ausgleichsanspruch).

13.3		Clause 13.1 shall not apply as to the amount of Loans borrowed and passed on (whether by way of shareholder loan or equity contribution) to the Transferor or any of its Subsidiaries as long as the respective shareholder loan is outstanding or the respective equity contribution has not been dissolved or otherwise repaid, but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any purchase price payment received by the Transferor under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

13.4		Should it become legally permissible for managing directors of a German GmbH (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, Limited Liability Company) to enter into security arrangements in support of obligations of their shareholders without

		limitations, the limitations set forth in Clause 13.1 shall no longer apply. Should any such guarantees become subject to legal restrictions that are less stringent than the limitations set forth in Clause 13.1 above, such less stringent limitations shall apply. Otherwise, Clause 13.1 shall remain unaffected by changes in applicable law.

14.		WAIVER OF TRANSFERORS DEFENSES AND OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS

14.1		The Transferor hereby waives all defences against enforcement that may be raised on the basis of potential avoidance (Anfechtbarkeit) and set-off (Aufrechenbarkeit) of the Secured Obligations. This waiver shall not apply to a set-off with counterclaims that are (i) uncontested (unbestritten) or (ii) based on a binding non- appealable court decision (rechtskräftig festgestellt).

14.2		If the security created hereunder is enforced, or if the Assignor has discharged any of the Secured Obligations (or any part of them), no rights of the Secured Parties shall pass to the Assignor by subrogation or otherwise. Further, the Assignor shall not at any time before, on or after an enforcement of the security created hereunder and as a result of the Assignor entering into this Agreement, be entitled to demand indemnification or compensation from any Borrower, Guarantor or any of its affiliates or to assign any of these claims.

15.		RELEASE OF THE SECURITY ASSETS

15.1		Upon full and final satisfaction of all Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent shall at the cost and expense of the Transferor retransfer the Security Assets to the Transferor and surrender the surplus proceeds, if any, resulting from any realisation of the Security Assets to the Transferor. This shall not apply to the extent that the Collateral Agent has to surrender the Security Assets or such proceeds to a third party who is entitled to the Security Assets or to such proceeds. If the Collateral Agent is authorized to release in whole or in part any transferred collateral under both the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the ABL Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent is authorized to release the Security Assets under this Agreement.

15.2		At any time when the total value of the aggregate security granted by the Transferor to secure the Secured Obligations (the Security) which can be expected to be realised in the event of an enforcement of the Security (realisierbarer Wert)

		exceeds 110% of the Secured Obligations (the Limit) not only temporarily, the Collateral Agent shall on demand of the Transferor release such part of the Security (Sicherheitenfreigabe) as the Collateral Agent may in its reasonable discretion determine so as to reduce the realisable value of the Security to the Limit.

16.		DURATION AND INDEPENDENCE

16.1		Without prejudice to Clause 15.2, in no event shall the Security Assets be released before and unless all Secured Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and there is no amount outstanding under the Secured Obligations, whether for principal, interest, fees or other costs, expenses, charges or otherwise.

16.2		The Security Assets shall provide a continuing security and, to the largest extent possible under applicable law, no change or amendment whatsoever in and to the Secured Obligations and to any document relating to the Secured Obligations shall affect the validity of this Agreement nor shall it limit the obligations which are imposed on the Transferor hereunder.

16.3		This Agreement is in addition to, and independent of, any other security or guarantee the Collateral Agent may now or hereafter hold in respect of the Secured Obligations. None of such security or guarantee shall prejudice, or shall be prejudiced by, the Security Assets in any way.

17.		REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

11.4.		Waiving Section 418 of the German Civil Code, the Pledgor hereby agrees that the security created hereunder shall not be affected by any transfer or assumption of the Secured Obligations to, or by, any third party.

12.

RELEASE (PFANDFREIGABE)

12.1.		Upon complete and irrevocable satisfaction of the Secured Obligations, the Pledgees will as soon as reasonably practical declare the release of the Pledges (Pfandfreigabe) to the Pledgor as a matter of record. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties are aware that upon full and complete satisfaction of the Secured Obligations the Pledges, due to their accessory nature (Akzessorietät), cease to exist by operation of German mandatory law. If the Collateral Agent is authorized to release in whole or in part any pledges under the ABL Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent is authorized to release such Pledges under this Agreement.

12.2.		At any time when the total value of the aggregate security granted by the Pledgor to secure the Secured Obligations (the Security) which can be expected to be realised in the event of an enforcement of the Security (realisierbarer Wert) exceeds 110% of the Secured Obligations (the Limit) not only temporarily, the Pledgees shall on demand of the Pledgor release such part of the Security (Sicherheitenfreigabe) as the Pledgees may in their reasonable discretion determine so as to reduce the realisable value of the Security to the Limit.

13.

PARTIAL INVALIDITY, WAIVER

13.1.		If at any time, any one or more of the provisions hereof is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, such provision shall as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent necessary without affecting or impairing the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or of such provisions in any other jurisdiction. The invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be deemed to be replaced with such valid, legal or enforceable provision which comes as close as possible to the original intent of the parties and the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision. Should a gap (Regelungslücke) become evident in this Agreement, such gap shall, without affecting or impairing the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof, be deemed to be filled in with a valid, legal and enforceable provision which comes as close as possible to the original intent of the parties.

13.2.		No failure to exercise, or any delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall be deemed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

13.3.		In particular, the Pledges shall not be affected and shall in any event extend to any and all Shares in the Company even if the number or nominal value of the Existing Shares or the aggregate share capital of the Company as stated in Clause 2 are inaccurate or deviate from the actual facts.

14.		AMENDMENTS

		Changes and amendments to this Agreement including this Clause 15 shall be made in writing, unless notarial form by operation of law is required.

Number 1023 of the Roll of Notarial Deeds for 2010S

Transacted

in Frankfurt am Main, this 17th day of December, 2010.

Before me, the undersigning
Dr. Karl-Heinz Schmiegelt,
civil law notary
with offices in Frankfurt/Main

appeared today:

Ms Bettina Röder, Attorney-at-Law, born 27 April 1978, with business address at Noerr LLP, Börsenstraße 1, 60313 Frankfurt/Main.

Deponent no. 1 stated that in the following she would not act for herself but in the name and on behalf of

Novelis Aluminium Holding Company, a company incorporated under the laws of Ireland, with its registered office at 25/28 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland, registered with the Irish Companies Registration Office with registration number 316911,

Ms Katja Findeisen, Attorney-at-Law, born 24 November 1979, with business address at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, An der Welle 3, 60322 Frankfurt am Main.

Deponent no. 2 stated that in the following she would not act for herself but in the name and on behalf of

Bank of America, N.A., a national banking organization organized under the laws of the United States of America, having business addresses, among others, at One Bryant Park, New York, New York 10036, U.S.A., and at 135 S. LaSalle, Suite 927, IL-135-09-27, Chicago, IL 60603, U.S.A.,

based upon two powers of attorney dated 14 December 2010, faxed copies of which are attached hereto as appendices B.a.1 and B.a.2,

	b)		Citibank, N.A., a national banking organization organized under the laws of the United States of America, with registered offices at 3900 Paradise Road, Las Vegas, NV 89109, U.S.A.,

			based upon a power of attorney dated 15 December 2010, a faxed copy of which is attached hereto as appendix B.b,

	d)		UBS AG, a company organized under the laws of Switzerland, acting through its Stamford Branch, with the Stamford Branch having its registered offices at 677 Washington Blvd. Stamford, CT 06901, U.S.A,

			based upon a power of attorney dated 14 December 2010, a faxed copy of which is attached hereto as appendix B.d,

	e)		Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft, a company organized under the laws of Germany with its corporate seat in Frankfurt/Main, acting through its New York and Grand Cayman Branches,

			as proxy without power of attorney;

Mr Rudolf Grunwald, Director, born 23 March 1960, with business address at The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. Niederlassung Deutschland, Junghofstraße 22, 60311 Frankfurt am Main.

Deponent no. 3 stated that in the following he would not act for himself but in the name and on behalf of

The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, a company organized under the laws of Scotland under company registration number SC090312 with registered address at 36 St Andrew Square, Edinburgh, EH2 2YB, Scotland,

based upon a power of attorney dated 27 October 2010, a faxed copy of which is attached hereto as appendix C.

To the extent that deponent number 2 is acting as agent without power of attorney, she shall not be liable for the non-ratification of her declarations for any reason, and the parties confirm that they waive any rights, if any, against deponent number 2 in this respect. The declaration of ratification shall become effective upon receipt by the notary Dr Schmiegelt of the original or of a copy of the declaration, whether transmitted on paper, by telefax or as a scan file.The originals of the above-mentioned powers of attorney and of the declaration of ratification by Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft will be provided to the notary in due course with the exception of the power of attorney referred to by deponent no. 3. Certified copies of the originals filed subsequently shall be sealed to the present deed.

The proxies do not assume any liability as to the validity or the scope of the powers of attorney presented. The notary advised the deponents that he is obliged to verify the powers of representation of the deponents and to examine the documents presented with respect to a proof of such powers. After a discussion of the documentation presented today and promised to be submitted in due course, the deponents declared

- 2 -

that they did not wish any further proof of their power of representation and asked the notary to continue with the notarisation.

Deponents no. 2 and 3 identified themselves to the notary by submission of their valid German identification cards. Deponent No. 1 is personally known to the notary.

The notary asked the deponents regarding a prior involvement according to sec. 3 para. 1 sent. 1 no. 7 of the German Notarisation Act (Beurkundungsgesetz). After having been instructed by the notary the deponents and the notary answered this question in the negative.

The deponents requested the notary to notarise this deed in the English language for the convenience of the parties represented by them and confirmed that they are in adequate command of the English language. The notary declared that he is in adequate command of the English language as well.

Deponents no. 1 and 2, acting as aforesaid, then requested the notary to notarise the

First Ranking Share Pledge Agreement
(Term Loan)

attached to this deed as Attachment 1 with its schedules. This Share Pledge Agreement with the exclusion of its table of contents and its Schedule 3 forms an integral part of this deed.

Thereupon, deponent no. 1, acting as aforesaid, declared:

Novelis Aluminium Holding Company hereby offers to Bank of America, N.A. and to the other parties represented by deponents no. 2 and 3 (the Offerees) to conclude the

Second Ranking Share Pledge Agreement
(ABL Loan)

attached to this deed as Attachment 2 with its schedules. The Offerees take notice of the offer without accepting it (ohne es anzunehmen), the corresponding pledges thus coming into existence upon acceptance of the offer in a separate deed to be notarised today by the acting notary, and hence ranking junior to the pledges created by the agreement contained in Attachment 1. Attachment 2 with the exclusion of its table of contents and its schedule 3 forms an integral part of this deed as well.

The offer shall be irrevocable until 31 December 2010. Novelis Aluminium Holding Company shall bear the costs of the acceptance of the offer.

The acting notary is instructed to deliver a counterpart copy (Ausfertigung) to the Offerees to the attention of Ms. Katja Findeisen and Mr Rudolf Grunwald as authorised representatives.

The notary is asked to deliver certified copies and counterpart copies of the present deed always bound together with a certifed copy of the deed of acceptance, if not otherwise instructed by the parties.

- 3 -

The parties make it clear for the avoidance of doubt that the invalidity of the declaration of any party (e.g. in case of the non-ratification by Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft of the acceptance of the offer) shall not affect the validity of the declarations of the other parties.

All approvals, consents and similar declarations that may still be required shall take effect for and against all parties upon receipt by the officiating notary.

The notary advised the deponents

that the pledge is a security instrument of strictly accessory nature (i.e. that it comes into legal existence only if, to the extent that, and as long as, the underlying secured claims do in fact exist, and that the owners of the secured claims and the pledgees must be identical);

that if the underlying secured claims are novated this will cause the pledge to lapse by operation of law in relation to such novated claims;

that the articles of association may impose restrictions on a transfer or pledge of shares;

that there is no bona fide creation, acquisition nor ranking of a pledge of shares (i.e. the pledgees are not protected if the shares purported to be pledged do not exist, have been previously transferred to a third party or have been previously encumbered for the benefit of a third party) if not otherwise provided for in sec. 16 para.3 German Limited Liability Companies Act (Gesetz betreffend die Gesellschaften mit beschränkter Haftung);

that there is no court ruling of the German Federal High Court of Justice (Bundesgerichtshof) in relation to the validity of a pledge for the benefit of future pledgees created by way of the agent bank acting as agent without power of attorney for all future pledgees who will become members of the group of lenders after the notarization in accordance with the terms of the underlying credit agreements and that, if the pledges in favour of the future pledgees are validly created herein, it may be questioned whether such pledges shall have the same rank as the pledges in favour of the Pledgee; and

that the parties hereto are, by operation of law, jointly and severally liable with respect to the payment of all notarial fees, irrespective of any internal agreement passed in that respect.

This deed with Attachments 1 and 2 including their respective Schedules 1 and 2 but excluding their table of contents and its respective Schedules 3 was read aloud by the notary to the deponents, was approved by the deponents and was signed by the deponents and the notary at 12:45 CET in their own hands as follows:

Considering the foregoing, the Company asks you kindly to continue making payments as previously instructed upon depositing the relevant due amount with [Bank Account # ], maintained before [Bank name]. However, if and when a written notice comes from BofA, we instruct you to immediately act in accordance with the instructions so received from BofA (irrespective of any notice to the contrary from the Company).

6.2.

except as permitted under the Revolving Credit Agreement and subject to the prior written consent the Pledgee, the Pledgor shall not create, grant or permit to exist (a) any security interest over or (b) any restriction on the ability to transfer or enforce or (c) assign or dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Assets; and

6.3.

it shall cooperate with the Pledgee and sign or cause to be signed all such further documents and take all such further action as the Pledgee may from time to time reasonably request to perfect and protect this Pledge and to carry out the provisions and purposes of this Agreement.

POWER OF ATTORNEY

The Pledgor irrevocably appoints the Pledgee to be its attorney and in its name and on its behalf to execute, deliver and perfect all documents (including any share transfer forms and other instruments of transfer) and do all things that the Collateral Agent, acting for itself and on behalf of the Secured Parties, may consider to be requisite for (a) carrying out any obligation imposed on the Pledgor under this Agreement or (b)

exercising any of the rights conferred to the Pledgee and the Secured Parties under this Agreement or by law, it being understood that the enforcement of the Pledge over the Pledged Assets must be carried out as described in Clause 8 hereunder. The Pledgor shall ratify and confirm all things done and all documents executed by the Pledgee in the exercise of this power of attorney.

ENFORCEMENT OF PLEDGE

8.1.

Subject always to and in compliance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Pledgee shall be entitled, without prior notice to the Pledgor, to enforce the Pledge in the most favourable manner provided for by Luxembourg law at that time and in particular to require the Account Bank to make payment of all amounts deposited for the credit of the Pledged Account directly to the Pledgee, acting on behalf of the Pledgee and the Secured Parties; in that respect the Pledgee may terminate any term deposit prior to its maturity.

EFFECTIVENESS OF SECURITY

9.1.

The Pledge shall be a continuing security and shall not be considered as satisfied or discharged or prejudiced by any intermediate payment or by the settlement of any part of the Secured Obligations and shall remain in full force and effect until it has been released in accordance with the terms of this Agreement upon the Discharge of Revolving Credit Secured Obligations.

9.2.

The Pledgor shall not be entitled to require the release of the Pledge until the Discharge of Revolving Credit Secured Obligations, and the Pledgee hereby undertakes, at the request of the Pledgor, to give release of the Pledge no later than five Business Days after the Discharge of Revolving Credit Secured Obligations, subject to delivery of any documents or certificates which the Pledgee may reasonably request (including in particular, any certificates in relation to the absence of voidness or voidability of payments under any applicable laws).

9.3.

This Pledge shall be discharged by, and only by, the express release thereof granted by the Pledgee pursuant to the terms of Clause 9.2 hereabove. All reasonable costs and expenses associated with the release and discharge of Pledge shall be borne by the Pledgor.

9.4.

The Pledge shall be cumulative, in addition to and independent of every other security which the Pledgee or any Secured Party may at any time hold as security for the Secured Obligations or any rights, powers and remedies provided by law and shall not

operate so as in any way to prejudice or affect or be prejudiced or affected by any security interest or other right or remedy which the Pledgee or any Secured Party may now or at any time in the future have in respect of the Secured Obligations.

9.5.

This Pledge shall not be prejudiced by any time or indulgence granted to any person, or any abstention or delay by the Pledgee or any Secured Party in perfecting or enforcing any security interest or rights or remedies that the Pledgee or any Secured Party may now or at any time in the future have from or against the Pledgor or any other person.

9.6.

No failure on the part of the Pledgee or any Secured Party, to exercise, or delay on its part in exercising, any of its rights under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any further or other exercise of that or any other rights.

9.7.

Neither the obligations of the Pledgor contained in this Agreement nor the rights, powers and remedies conferred to the Pledgee and the Secured Parties under this Agreement or by law, nor the pledge created hereby shall be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by:

	9.7.1		any amendment to, or any variation, waiver or release of, any Secured Obligation under the Revolving Credit Agreement or any other Revolving Credit Loan Documents;

	9.7.2		any failure to take, or to fully take, any security contemplated by the Revolving Credit Agreement or otherwise agreed to be taken in respect of the Secured Obligations;

	9.7.3		any failure to realise or to fully realise the value of, or any release, discharge, exchange or substitution of, any security taken in respect of the Secured Obligations; or

	9.7.4		any other act, event or omission which, but for this Clause 9.7, might operate to discharge, impair or otherwise affect any of the obligations of the Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the rights, powers and remedies conferred to the Pledgee and the Secured Parties under this Agreement, the Pledge or by law.

9.8.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Pledgor hereby waives any rights arising (if any) under Article 2037 of the Luxembourg Civil Code.

9.9.

The Pledgor waives its right to the benefit of both division and discussion.

9.10.

Neither the Pledgee nor any of the Secured Parties nor any of their respective agents shall be liable by reason of (a) taking any action permitted by this Agreement or (b)

		any neglect or default in connection with the Pledged Assets or (c) the realisation of all or any part of the Pledged Assets, except in the case of gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Pledgee or Secured Party (as determined by the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), any and all joint liability being excluded.

10.		PARTIAL ENFORCEMENT

The Pledgee shall have the right to request enforcement of all or part of the Pledged Assets in its most absolute discretion. No action, choice or absence of action in this respect, or partial enforcement, shall in any manner affect the security interest created hereunder over the Pledged Assets as it then shall be (and in particular those Pledged Assets which have not been subject to enforcement). The security interest thereover shall continue to remain in full and valid existence until discharge or termination thereof, as the case may be.

11.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

All reasonable costs, fees, stamp duties and other amounts incurred by the Secured Parties or the Pledgee in connection with the negotiation, execution or enforcement of this Agreement will be for the account of the Pledgor subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Revolving Credit Agreement.

Notice of pledge over bank account held
by NOVELIS LUXEMBOURG (as Pledgor)
with [] (as Account Bank)

Dear Madam, Dear Sir,

(1) We hereby notify you that we have pledged the assets credited now or in the future on our following account held with your bank as follows: IBAN LU[] (the Pledged Account) in favour of BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. acting as Pledgee and Collateral Agent for itself and for the Secured Parties under the Revolving Credit Agreement in accordance with a First Ranking Account Pledge Agreement dated December 17, 2010 between Novelis Luxembourg S.A. as Pledgor and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. as Pledgee (the Account Pledge Agreement). For your information we attach a copy of the Account Pledge Agreement.

So long as no Event of Default (as defined in the Account Pledge Agreement) has occurred which is continuing, unremedied or unwaived, the Pledgor shall be entitled to debit the Pledged Account of any cash monies held thereon subject to the provisions of the Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined in the Account Pledge Agreement). Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Pledgee shall be entitled to receive and freely apply all sums paid or payable in respect of the Pledged Assets. It is at the charge of the Pledgee to inform the Account Bank that an Event of Default has occurred.

(2)

The Account Bank is hereby expressly notified of, and instructed to inscribe, the pledge on the Pledged Account in favour of the Pledgee for itself and for the Secured Parties in accordance with the Account Pledge Agreement.

To the extent applicable, if the assets held on the Pledged Account comprise fungible securities and other financial instruments, the Account Bank should immediately upon receipt of this notice earmark such securities and other financial instruments as being pledged in favour of the Secured Parties represented by the Pledgee by way of an inscription of the security interest created under the Account Pledge Agreement in the Account Banks books.

(3)

The Pledgor and the Pledgee expressly accept that the Account Bank shall not assume any liabilities in the execution on the Account Pledge Agreement and shall also not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by the Pledgor or the Pledgee save in respect of such loss or damage which is suffered as a result of wilful misconduct or gross negligence of the Account Bank. It is specifically agreed that the Account Bank shall have no responsibility nor duty to check that the conditions set out in the Account Pledge Agreement or any other agreement and defined in these agreements as Default or Event of Default, Enforcement or Enforcement Event are fulfilled.

(4)

The parties to the Account Pledge Agreement expressly agreed that acceptance of the terms of the Account Pledge Agreement by the Account Bank does not imply any obligation for the Account Bank to guarantee any commitments of the Pledgor towards the Pledgee or towards any other party to any agreement mentioned in the Account Pledge Agreement.

(5)

The Account Bank hereby expressly disclaims any warranty, guarantee, conditions, covenant and representations regarding any other agreement referred to in the Account Pledge Agreement as well as to the conformity of the provisions of the Account Pledge Agreement with Luxembourg law. Any transfers, realisations or enforcement that the Account Bank may conduct in favour of or on behalf of the Pledgee shall in any event be limited to the value of the cash claims, securities and credit balances of the Account on the date of any transfer, realisation or enforcement.

(6)

The Pledgor will indemnify the Account Bank and keep the Account Bank indemnified against all reasonable and duly documented damages, losses, actions, claims, expenses, demands and liabilities which may be incurred by or made against the Account Bank for anything done or omitted in the exercise or purported exercise of the powers contained herein other than to the extent that such damages, losses, actions, claims, expenses, demands and liabilities are incurred or made against the Account Bank as a result of gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Account Bank.

(7)

The Account Bank hereby confirms that it is not aware of any prior encumbrances over the Pledged Account or the Pledged Assets. The Account Bank hereby releases any pledge or lien (resulting from the application of its general terms and conditions or any other agreement) over the Pledged Account or Pledged Assets and waives any

right of retention, set-off and, more generally, any rights that may adversely affect the Pledge and waives any option to create new pledges or liens over the Pledged Account

(8)

In case of discrepancies between the Account Pledge Agreement and this Acknowledgement, the latter shall prevail.

(9)

These undertakings are for the benefit of the Account Bank only and shall not in any way affect the relation between the Pledgor and the Pledgee. This Acknowledgement shall in no way affect the rights of the Pledgee or the obligations of the Pledgor under the Account Pledge Agreement, or the existence, perfection, continuity or enforceability of the Pledge constituted thereunder.

(10)

We would like to invite you to accept and acknowledge the creation of the pledge over the Pledged Account.

Yours faithfully,

Novelis Luxembourg S.A.

- 3 -



(C)		Pursuant to an intercreditor agreement, dated December 17^th, 2010 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Intercreditor Agreement) between, among other parties, the Borrowers, the Guarantors, and the other Companies party thereto, the Term Loan Administrative Agent, the Term Loan Collateral Agent, the Revolving Credit Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent (as all those terms defined therein), and certain other persons which may be or became parties thereto have agreed to the relative priority of the respective Liens of the Claimholders on the Collateral (all those terms being defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) and certain other rights, priorities and interests as set forth therein.

(D)		The Collateral Agent acts in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

(E)		The Collateral Agent and Secured Parties require the Guarantor to unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Loan Parties of their obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement, as further set forth in this Guarantee.

1.		DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATION

1.1		In this Guarantee:

		Business Day means one day on which the commercial banks in Luxembourg are open for normal business transactions;

		Discharge of Revolving Credit Secured Obligations shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Intercreditor Agreement.

		Guaranteed Obligations shall have the meaning given that term in Section 7.01 of the Revolving Credit Agreement.

1.2		Unless defined otherwise herein, capitalized terms and expressions used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Revolving Credit Agreement.

1.3		In this Guarantee, (a) a person includes its successors and assigns; (b) headings are for convenience of reference only and are to be ignored in construing this Guarantee and (c) references to any agreement or document are references to that agreement or document as amended, varied, supplemented, substituted or novated from time to time, in accordance with its terms.

- 4 -

2.		GUARANTEE

2.1		The Guarantor irrevocably commits in the event any of the other Loan Parties shall at any time fail to perform any of the Guaranteed Obligations, to perform at first demand and as an independent obligation (garantie à première demande) and without the right to dispute payment on grounds pertaining to the obligations or the personal situation of such other Loan Parties (bénéfice de discussion) or to require the division of payments between itself and such other Loan Parties (bénéfice de division), any such payment obligations in place of such other Loan Parties. The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives expressly its right to benefit of articles 2021 (discussion), 2026 (division) and article 2037 of the Luxembourg Civil Code and further waives as right or requirement that the Collateral Agent in the event of any default by any of the other Loan Parties first make a demand or seek enforcement against any of the other Loan Parties or any other party.

		For the avoidance of doubt, this Guarantee does not constitute a cautionnement within the meaning of articles 2011 ff. of the Luxembourg Civil Code, but an independent first demand guarantee, and references to the indebtedness are only for the assessment of the amounts payable under this Guarantee and for the determination of the time when this Guarantee may be called upon.

2.2		In order to secure its obligations under this Guarantee and the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Guarantor has agreed to provide the Collateral Agent with the Collateral represented by the following Luxembourg security documents:

		- a first ranking pledge over its bank accounts;

		- a second ranking pledge over its receivables;

it will not, without the prior written consent of the Transferee, or except as otherwise permitted by the Term Loan Agreement and/or the Revolving Credit Agreement, (i) sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Secured Assets (or any part thereof), (ii) create, incur or permit to exist any encumbrance by contract or otherwise with respect to any of the Secured Assets, or any interest therein, or any proceeds thereof;

8.2

subject to Section 2.2 above, it will use its best endeavours to assist in the defence of the Transferees right, title and security in and to the Secured Assets against the claims and demands of all persons whomsoever;

8.3

it will exercise the rights in respect of the Secured Assets so as not to violate or otherwise materially adversely affect the rights of the Transferee under this Agreement or cause a material adverse effect in any way on the Transferees rights or the Transferors obligations hereunder;

8.4

it will cooperate with the Transferee and, at its sole cost and expense, promptly and duly execute and do all such assurances, acts and things as required by applicable law and/or as the Transferee may reasonably require as being necessary for perfecting or protecting all or any of the rights, powers, authorities and discretions which are for the time being exercisable by the Transferee under this Agreement in relation to the Secured Assets for facilitating the enforcement of any such rights or any part thereof and in the exercise of all powers, authorities and discretions vested in the Transferee; to that effect, the Transferor shall in particular execute all documents or instruments and give all notices, orders and directions and make all registrations which the Transferee may reasonably think expedient;

8.5

it will, and will cause or, as the case may be, make reasonable efforts to procure the Debtors, to assist the Transferee and generally make its reasonable efforts, in

		order to obtain all necessary consents, approvals and authorisations from any relevant authorities in order to permit the exercise by the Transferee of its rights and powers under this Agreement upon enforcement of the Transfer.

(9)		FURTHER ASSURANCES

		The Transferor agrees that at any time and from time to time upon the written request of the Transferee, it will execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things as the Transferee may reasonably request in order to give effect to the purpose of this Agreement. Any cost or expense incurred by the Transferee in connection with any such further document shall be for the account of the Transferor and shall be paid promptly upon demand by the Transferor to the Transferee.

(10)		EFFECTIVENESS OF SECURITY

10.1

The Transferor shall not be entitled to require the release of the security created hereunder until the Discharge of Senior Lien Secured Obligations.

10.2

This security created hereunder shall be released and discharged upon the Discharge of Senior Lien Secured Obligations.

10.3

Such release shall be promptly given in the case of the Discharge of Senior Lien Secured Obligations, subject to delivery of any documents or certificates which the Transferee may reasonably request (including in particular, any certificates in relation to the absence of voidness or voidability of payments under any applicable laws). All reasonable costs and expenses associated with the release and discharge of the security created hereunder shall be borne by the Transferor.

10.4

Any discharge of the security interest created hereunder shall be null and void and without effect if any payment received by the Transferee and applied towards satisfaction of all or part of the Secured Obligations (i) is avoided or declared invalid as against the creditors of the maker of such payment, (ii) becomes repayable by the Transferee to a third party, or (iii) proves not to have been effectively received by the Transferee, and the Transferee shall be entitled upon notice to the Transferor to enforce the Transfer as if such discharge had not occurred.

10.5

The security interest created hereunder shall be cumulative in addition to and independent of every other security which the Transferee or any Secured Party may at any time hold as security for the Secured Obligations or any rights, powers and remedies provided by law and shall not operate so as in any way to prejudice or affect or be prejudiced or affected by any security interest or other right or remedy

which the Transferee or any Secured Party may now or at any time in the future have in respect of the Secured Obligations.

10.6

This security interest created hereunder shall not be prejudiced by any time or indulgence granted to any person, or any abstention or delay by the Transferee or any Secured Party in perfecting or enforcing any security interest or rights or remedies that the Transferee or any Secured Party may now or at any time in the future have from or against the Transferor or any other person.

10.7

No failure on the part of the Transferee to exercise, or delay on its part in exercising, any of its rights under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any further or other exercise of that or any other rights.

10.8

Neither the obligations of the Transferor contained in this Agreement nor the rights, powers and remedies conferred upon the Transferee by this Agreement or by law, nor the security interest created hereby shall be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by:

	10.8.1		any amendment to, or any variation, waiver or release of, any Secured Obligation;

	10.8.2		any failure to take, or fully to take, any security contemplated by the Term Loan Agreement, the Revolving Credit Agreement or any Loan Document or otherwise agreed to be taken in respect of the Secured Obligations;

	10.8.3		any failure to realise or fully to realise the value of, or any release, discharge, exchange or substitution of, any security taken in respect of the Secured Obligations; or

	10.8.4		any other act, event or omission which, but for this Clause might operate to discharge, impair or otherwise affect any of the obligations of the Transferor contained in this Agreement, the rights, powers and remedies conferred upon the Transferee by this Agreement, the Transfer or by law.

10.9		The Transferor waives its right to the benefit of both division and discussion (if any).

(11)		LIABILITY, INDEMNITY

11.1

Neither the Transferee nor any of the Secured Parties shall be liable for any failure to collect or realise the Secured Obligations or any collateral security or guarantee therefor, or any part thereof, or for any delay in so doing, nor shall the Transferee (or any Secured Party) be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto.

11.2

Neither the Transferee nor any of the Secured Parties shall be liable for the loss or misdelivery of, or damage to, the Secured Assets, howsoever arising, save to the extent that such loss, misdelivery or damage is evidenced by the Transferor to have been caused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Transferee (or the relevant Secured Party) or a servant or agent thereof (in each case as determined by the final, non-appealable judgement of a court of competent jurisdiction), any joint liability being excluded, and provided that any liability of the Transferee (or any Secured Party) shall not extend to consequential loss and shall not in any event exceed the value of the Secured Assets, or the part of the Secured Assets lost, misdelivered, or damaged.

11.3

Neither the Transferee nor any of the Secured Parties nor any of their respective agents shall be liable by reason of (a) taking any action permitted by this Agreement or (b) any neglect or default in connection with the Secured Assets or (c) the realisation of all or any part of the Secured Assets, except in the case of gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Transferee or Secured Party (as determined by a final, non-appealable judgement of a court of competent jurisdiction), any joint liability being excluded.

11.4

For the avoidance of doubt, the Transferee (or any Secured Party) shall not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by the Transferor in connection with this Agreement, save in respect of such loss or damage which is suffered as a result of wilful misconduct or gross negligence such Transferee or Secured Party (as determined by a final, non-appealable judgement of a court of competent jurisdiction).

11.5		The Transferor shall upon first demand indemnify the Transferee (and any Secured Party) its agent and officers and keep the Transferee (and any Secured Party) indemnified against all costs, losses and liabilities resulting from the Transferors conduct in relation to the Secured Assets which may be reasonably incurred by the Transferee (or any Secured Party) acting in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents save in the case of gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Transferee or the relevant Secured Party.

(12)		NO WAIVER, CUMULATIVE REMEDIES, AMENDMENTS

12.1

The Transferee (or any Secured Party) shall not by any act, delay, omission or

otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by or on behalf of the Transferee, and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by or on behalf of the Transferee of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Transferee would otherwise have on any future occasion. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising on the part of the Transferee, any right, power or privileges hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The right and remedies herein provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

12.2		None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by or on behalf of the Transferee and the Transferor to this Agreement and is otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

The Madeira Guarantor undertakes to notify the assignment of the Credits under this Clause, with copy to the Collateral Agent, to the relevant debtor of the Credits promptly upon being instructed for that purpose by the Collateral Agent upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing.

9.

2.2.1		any financial securities credited to the relevant Pledged Account from time to time after the execution of the Statement of Pledge (and such financial securities will be deemed to be part of the Pledge and will be treated as Pledged Securities from the date of execution of the Statement of Pledge);

2.2.2

all financial securities to which the Pledge extends by reason of their having been substituted for, or added to, the Pledged Securities (including by reason of the transformation, merger or other similar operation affecting the relevant Company); and

2.3		The Pledgor shall cause each Securities Account Holder, and each Securities Account Holder undertakes accordingly, to credit to the relevant Pledged Account:

2.3.3		The Pledged Securities shall include at all time during this Agreement all the shares and other Securities, if any, issued by the Companies and outstanding from time to time.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the Pledgor shall not exercise any voting rights in the Companies without the prior consent of the French Collateral Agent.

4.2		Cash Distributions

		Until the term of the Pledges (as set forth in Clause 6 below), all Cash Distributions denominated in any currency arising from the Pledged Securities from time to time shall immediately be credited to the relevant Cash Account, which the relevant Securities Account Holder agrees to do.

4.2.1		Availability of Cash Distributions prior to an Event of Default

		For so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Pledgor shall be free, subject to the terms of, and the limitations set forth in, the Revolving Credit Agreement, to use any amounts standing to the credit of a Cash Account, provided however that such Cash Account may never present a debit balance.

4.2.2		Unavailability of Cash Distributions after an Event of Default

		Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the amounts standing to the credit of the Cash Accounts will become unavailable to the Pledgor and the Cash Account Holder will be entitled to block such Cash Accounts. To that effect, the French Collateral Agent will be entitled (and the Pledgor hereby expressly gives mandate to the French Collateral Agent to that effect) to notify the same to the Cash Account Holder by notice, a form of which is set out in Schedule D hereto, requesting it to freeze the Cash Accounts until a notification to the contrary is received from the French Collateral Agent, or until the French Collateral Agent requests the transfer to its benefit of the amounts standing to the credit of such Cash Accounts in accordance with Clause 9 (Remedies upon an Event of Default), in each case in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT

9.1

Exercise of its rights by the French Collateral Agent

At any time after an Event of Default has occurred, and in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the French Collateral Agent, acting for its own account and for the account and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Secured Parties, shall be entitled to exercise all rights, and take all actions in relation to the Pledged Assets as may be permitted by applicable law in France and, in particular, may:

(a)

in accordance with the provisions of article 2348 of the French Civil Code, upon five (5) days prior written notice (mise en demeure) sent by recorded delivery to the Pledgor, and without requesting judicial attribution (attribution judiciaire), enforce the Pledges by becoming the owner of the Securities;

(b)

at any time after all or part of the Revolving Credit Secured Obligations have become due and payable (créance certaine, liquide et exigible), and after a period of three (3) clear days (jours francs) starting on the date on which upon five (5) days prior written notice (mise en demeure), complying with the provisions of paragraph V of article L. 211-20 of the Code monétaire et financier and of articles D. 211-1 and following of the same code, sent by recorded delivery to the Pledgor, the relevant Securities Account Holder and the Cash Account Holder, require the transfer to it of the amounts standing to the credit of the relevant Cash Account, up to the amount of the Revolving Credit Secured Obligations.

11.		OBLIGATION TO PERFORM

		It is expressly agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Chargor shall remain liable during the Security Period to observe and perform all of the conditions and obligations assumed by it in respect of the Charged Business, and the Beneficiaries and the French Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation or liability by reason of, or arising out of, this Agreement unless otherwise expressly specified herein. The Beneficiaries and the French Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to, or be required in any manner to perform or fulfill any obligation of the Chargor in respect of the Charged Business, or to make any payment or to present or file any claim or take any other action to collect or enforce the payment of any amount to which it may have been or to which it may be entitled hereunder at any time or times.

12.		ENFORCEMENT

		Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement:

13.		APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

		The proceeds from the sale or the retention of the Charged Business pursuant to the enforcement of this Charge shall be applied to the repayment of the Secured Obligations, as set out and in the order and priority set forth under the Intercreditor Agreement. The French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries shall in no case be liable for the value retained for the enforcement of the Charge.

14.		CERTIFICATES

		Any certification or determination by the French Collateral Agent setting forth an amount under this Agreement is, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence of the matters to which it relates.

(a)		No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the French Collateral Agent or any Beneficiary, any right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other exercise of that right or remedy or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not

		exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. The Beneficiaries and the French Collateral Agent shall not assume any responsibility towards the Chargor or its legal successors, individually or generally, due to the late exercise or failure to exercise the rights and prerogatives conferred to them by this Agreement.

(d)		If, at any time, any provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired.

(e)		In any case, if such illegality, invalidity or enforceability occurs, the parties shall negotiate in good faith with a view to agree on the replacement of such provision by a provision which is legal, valid and enforceable and which is to the extent applicable in accordance with the intents and purposes of this Agreement and which in its economic effect come as close as practicable to the provision being replaced.

21.		NOTICES

		Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement, all notices or other communications under or in connection with this Agreement shall be given to each party as specified in Section 11.01 (Notices) of the Term Loan Credit Agreement (in respect of the Term Loan Secured Parties) and Section 11.01 (Notices) of the Revolving Credit Agreement (in respect of the Revolving Credit Secured Parties).

WHEREAS:

(A)

The Pledgor, the French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries are parties to a pledge of receivables dated as of 17 December 2010 (the Pledge of Receivables) pursuant to which the Pledgor has agreed to pledge its Receivables in favor of the French Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Beneficiaries as security for the full performance of the Secured Obligations (as each of these capitalized terms is defined in the Pledge of Receivables).

(B)		Pursuant to Clause 3 of the Pledge of Receivables, the Pledgor has undertaken to pledge in favor of French Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Beneficiaries any future Receivable resulting from agreements entered into by the Pledgor after the date of execution of the Pledge of Receivables.

(b)		This Supplemental Pledge Agreement forms part of the Pledge of Receivables and the provisions of the Pledge of Receivables, including for the avoidance of doubt the provisions of Clause 15 (Costs, Expenses, Indemnities and Taxes) thereof, shall also apply to this Supplemental Pledge Agreement.

4.		REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PLEDGOR

		In addition to the representation and warranties of the Pledgor set forth in the Pledge of Receivables, the Pledgor hereby represents and warrants to the French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries that:

(c)		the Pledgor is at the date hereof the owner of the Receivables listed in Exhibit 2 to this Supplemental Pledge Agreement, such Receivables being free and clear of any charge, pledge, security, lien or encumbrance (other than the pledge created hereunder or otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents);

(d)		all identification data in respect of the Pledged Receivables listed in Exhibit 2 to this Supplemental Pledge Agreement are true, accurate and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof; and

(e)		all the Receivables which can be pledged as of the date hereof have been pledged hereunder and such Pledge will not result in any breach or default under any instrument to which the Pledgor is bound except for violations or defaults that could not reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect.

5.		NOTIFICATION, COLLECTION AND RECOVERY

(f)		For so long as no Event of Default has occurred and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Pledgor shall continue to receive the amounts due by the Debtors under the Pledged Receivables in accordance with the provisions of the Underlying Agreements.

(g)		Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the Pledgor shall no longer be entitled to receive any amount due by the Debtors under the Pledged Receivables.

6.		INCORPORATION OF TERMS

		The provisions of Clause 6 (Representation and Warranties), Clause 7 (Undertakings) and Clause 10 (Enforcement of the Pledge) of the Pledge of Receivables Agreement shall

be incorporated into this Supplemental Pledge as if set out in full in this Agreement and as if references in those clauses to this Agreement were references to this Supplemental Pledge.

7.		GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

(i)		This Supplemental Pledge Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, French law.

(j)		The Pledgor agrees that the courts of France shall have jurisdiction to settle any disputes in connection with this Supplemental Pledge Agreement and the Pledge, and accordingly submit to the jurisdiction of the Commercial Court of Paris (Tribunal de commerce de Paris). This Clause 7 is for the benefit of the French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries only. As a result, nothing in this Clause shall limit the right of any Beneficiary to bring proceedings against the Pledgor in connection with any other Loan Documents, Revolving Credit Loan Documents or any other matter in any other court of competent jurisdiction.

(b)		The French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries shall not assume any responsibility for any damage arising from the enforcement of this Agreement, or for any default or omission in the exercise of rights under this Agreement.

(c)		The French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries shall not assume any responsibility towards the Pledgor or its legal successors, individually or generally, due to the late exercise or the failure to exercise the rights conferred on them by this Agreement.

(d)		If, at any time, any provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired.

(e)		In any case, if such illegality, invalidity or enforceability occurs, the parties shall negotiate in good faith with a view to agree on the replacement of such provision by a provision which is legal, valid and enforceable and which is to the extent applicable in accordance with the intents and purposes of this Agreement and which in its economic effect come as close as practicable to the provision being replaced.

21.		NOTICES

		Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement, all notices or other communications under or in connection with this Agreement shall be given to each party as specified in Section 11.01 (Notices) of the Term Loan Credit Agreement (in respect of the Term Loan Secured Parties) and Section 11.01 (Notices) of the Revolving Credit Agreement (in respect of the Revolving Credit Secured Parties).

22.		ELECTION OF DOMICILE

		Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any relevant law, the Pledgor irrevocably elects domicile at its registered office for the purpose of serving any judicial or extra-judicial documents in relation to any action or proceedings.

23.		NO AMENDMENT

		The parties to this Agreement recognize that this Agreement has the sole purpose of establishing the Pledge in favor of the French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries and does not have the purpose or effect of modifying the rights and obligations set out in any other Loan Document.

24.		LANGUAGE

(a)		This Agreement is executed in French for the purpose of registration formalities. A French version is set forth in Schedule 2. In the event of any conflict between the English version and the French version, the French version of this Agreement shall prevail, irrespective of whether the French translation has been signed or initialed by any of the parties to this Agreement.

(b)		All notices and documents delivered under this Agreement shall be in English or be accompanied by a translation into English and the party to whom any such translation is addressed shall be entitled to rely on it as being true and correct.

25.		INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT GOVERNS

		Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the liens and security interests granted for the benefit of the French Collateral Agent, the Term Loan Secured Parties and the Revolving Credit Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Except as provided for in this paragraph, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Revolving Credit Agreement, as applicable, including Article X thereof, shall govern and control the exercise of the remedies by the French Collateral Agent.

26.		GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

26.1		Governing Law

		This Agreement and the Pledge shall be governed by and construed in accordance with French law.

26.2		Jurisdiction

		For the benefit of the French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries, the Pledgor agrees that the courts of France shall have jurisdiction to settle any disputes in connection with this Agreement and the Pledge, and accordingly submit any such disputes to the jurisdiction of the Commercial Court of Paris (Tribunal de commerce de Paris). This Clause 26.2 is for the benefit of the French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries only. As a result, nothing in this Clause shall limit the right of the French Collateral Agent or any Beneficiary to bring proceedings against the Pledgor in connection with this Agreement and/or the Pledge in any other court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, the French Collateral Agent and the Beneficiaries may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

In order to secure the prompt payment in full when due of the principal and interest on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Notes held by each Lender of, each Borrower, and all other Revolving Credit Secured Obligations from time to time owing to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the other Revolving Credit Secured Parties by any Loan Party under any Loan Document (including any Hedging Agreement entered into with a counterparty that is a Revolving Credit Secured Party), and the performance of all obligations under any of the foregoing (such obligations being herein collectively called the Guaranteed Obligations), the Guarantor hereby grants to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the other Revolving Credit Secured Parties, an autonomous first demand guarantee (garantie à première demande). The Guarantee shall constitute an autonomous and independent obligation of the Guarantor.

GUARANTEE UNCONDITIONAL

Subject to the express terms herein, the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

(a)

(b)

any modification or amendment of or supplement to the Loan Documents;

(d)

the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which any Guarantor may have at any time against any Loan Party, whether in connection therewith or with any unrelated transactions;

(e)

any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Loan Party for any reason of the Loan Documents, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by such Loan Party of any amount payable by it under the Loan Documents; or

(f)

any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Loan Party or any other person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this clause 3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any Guarantors obligations hereunder.

CONTINUING GUARANTEE

This Guarantee is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

REINSTATEMENT

The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise. The Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the other Revolving Credit Secured Parties on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the other Revolving Credit Secured Parties in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, other than any costs or expenses resulting from the bad faith or willful misconduct of the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent and the other Revolving Credit Secured Parties.

SUBROGATION; SUBORDINATION

The Guarantor hereby agrees that until the indefeasible and irrevocable payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations, it shall waive any claim and

shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of this Guarantee, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against any Borrower or any other Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any Indebtedness of any Loan Party permitted pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement shall be subordinated to Revolving Credit Secured Obligations in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Revolving Credit Collateral Agent.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(a)

PROMISSORY NOTE


$[Loan Amount]		Date: [Date]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned [INTERCOMPANY BORROWER], a company organized under the laws of [Intercompany Jurisdiction] (Borrower), HEREBY PROMISES TO PAY to the order of [INTERCOMPANY LENDER], a [Type of Entity] organized under the laws of [Intercompany Lender Jurisdiction] (Lender) on [Term Loan Maturity Date] (the Maturity Date) and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Subordination Agreements (as defined below) the principal sum of [________________] or, if less, the aggregate principal amount of the Advances (as defined below) made by Lender to the Borrower pursuant to Section 1 below.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2010 (as amended, restated, supplemented, modified or replaced from time to time, the Intercreditor Agreement), by and among NOVELIS INC., a corporation amalgamated under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the Parent Borrower), NOVELIS CORPORATION, a Texas corporation, NOVELIS PAE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, NOVELIS BRAND LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, NOVELIS SOUTH AMERICA HOLDINGS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, ALUMINUM UPSTREAM HOLDINGS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, NOVELIS UK LTD, a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales with registered number 00279596, NOVELIS AG, a stock corporation (AG) organized under the laws of Switzerland, AV METALS INC., a corporation formed under the Canada Business Corporations Act (Holdings), the subsidiaries of Holdings from time to time party thereto, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as administrative agent for the Revolving Credit Lenders and as collateral agent for the Revolving Credit Claimholders, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as administrative agent for the Term Loan Lenders, and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as collateral agent for the Term Loan Secured Parties, and certain other persons which may be or become parties thereto or become bound thereto from time to time. Reference is hereby made to:

(i) the Subordination Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2010 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the Revolving Credit Subordination Agreement), among Holdings, the subsidiaries of Holdings party thereto and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as administrative agent and as collateral agent under the Revolving Credit Agreement;

(ii) the Subordination Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2010 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the Term Loan Subordination Agreement and, together with the Revolving Credit Subordination Agreement, the Subordination Agreements), among Holdings, the subsidiaries of Holdings party thereto, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as administrative agent and as collateral agent under the Term Loan Agreement;

(iii) the Contribution, Intercompany, Contracting and Offset Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2010 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the Revolving Credit CICO Agreement), among Holdings, the subsidiaries of Holdings party thereto and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., administrative agent and as collateral agent under the Revolving Credit Agreement; and

(iv) the Contribution, Intercompany, Contracting and Offset Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2010 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the Term Loan CICO Agreement and, together with the Revolving Credit CICO Agreement, the CICO Agreements), among Holdings, the subsidiaries of Holdings party thereto, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as administrative agent and as collateral agent under the Term Loan Agreement.

1. Loan. The principal amount stated above (the Advances) has been loaned to the Borrower by the Lender subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Subordination Agreements, the CICO Agreements, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Subordination Agreements, the CICO Agreements, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement, the Borrower may prepay the Advances under this Promissory Note without premium or penalty.

2. Interest. (a) The Advances shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to [__]% (computed on the basis of year of [360]¹[365]² days), payable until the Maturity Date. The Borrower promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of Advances from the date hereof until such principal amount is paid in full. Interest accrued on the amount of all other obligations hereunder shall be payable on demand from and after the time such obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise). [Interest on the amount of all obligations hereunder shall continue to accrue after the beginning of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving the Borrower, whether or not allowed in such proceeding.]³ [In the event that accrued interest is not paid cash, it will compound on an annual basis in accordance with article 1154 of the French Civil Code.]⁴

[(b) To comply with the provisions of article L. 314 of the French Monetary and Financial Code (Code Monétaire et Financier), the Borrower and the Lender agree that the effective global rate for the facility is [__]% per annum and [__]% per quarter.]⁵

[(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Promissory Note, it is understood that the interest rate applicable hereunder in no event shall exceed the maximum interest rate permitted by Law no. 108 of March 7, 1996 (disposizioni in materia di usura) and related implementation regulations and subsequent amendments and/or repeals. Should, by any means, the interest rate due pursuant to the Section 2 above exceed the maximum rate permitted

²		Insert for UK borrowers.

³		Delete for German [or Swiss] borrowers.

⁴		Insert for French borrowers.

⁵		Insert for French borrower if there are no charges other than interest (insert interest rate from Section 2(a) above).

under applicable law, the interest rate applicable shall be automatically reduced as necessary to allow the interest rate applicable to be in compliance with any applicable law.]⁶

[(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Promissory Note, in no such event shall, if applicable, any: (i) an increase of the applicable interest rate triggered by the late payment of an overdue amount exceed 0.5% per annum on the outstanding principal amount due (article 1907 Belgian Civil Code); (ii) prepayment and related fees exceed six months of interest on the pre-paid amount, calculated at the rate of interest accruing on the principal amount (1907 bis Belgian Civil Code); (iii) interest be claimed on overdue interest, unless (A) the overdue interest has accrued over a period of at least one year, and (B) the interest has formally been claimed by the Lender, or the Borrower has agreed to it, after such period has effectively passed (article 1154 Belgian Civil Code); and (iv) the aggregate annual interest rate applicable in this Promissory Note exceed the maximum permitted by the Belgian Civil Code and other Requirements of Law from time to time in force in Belgium.]⁷

[(b) [Interest Act (Canada). For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), whenever in this Promissory Note any interest is calculated on the basis of a period of time other than a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, the annual rate of interest to which each rate of interest utilized pursuant to such calculation is equivalent is such rate so utilized multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by the number of days used in such calculation. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest will not apply to any interest calculation under this Promissory Note, and the rates of interest stipulated in this Promissory Note are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

(c) Criminal Interest Rate. (i) If any provision of this Promissory Note would obligate the Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to the Lender hereunder in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by the Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding that provision, that amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or result in a receipt by the Lender of interest at a criminal rate, the adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, (A) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to the Lender under this Section 2 and (B) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the Lender which would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

(ii) Notwithstanding clause (c)(i), and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if the Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by the Criminal Code (Canada), then the Borrower, shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Lender, to obtain reimbursement from the Lender in an amount equal to the excess, and pending reimbursement, the amount of the excess shall be deemed to be an amount payable by the Lender to the Borrower.


⁶		Insert for Italian borrower.

⁷		Insert for Belgian borrower.

(iii) Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 2 shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term of this Promissory Note on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of interest (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall be pro-rated over that period of time and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Authorized Pari Passu Collateral Agent (or following the Discharge of Pari Passu Secured Obligations, the Revolving Credit Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive for the purposes of that determination.]⁸

3. Payments; Record of Debt. Both principal and interest are payable in the currency in which Advances are made to Lender in same day funds. The Advances made by Lender to the Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof, and all payments made on account of principal thereof, shall be recorded by Lender[, acting for this purpose solely as an agent of the Borrower,]⁹ in its books and records, such books and records constituting prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information contained therein; provided that the failure of Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder.

4. Waivers. The Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights.

5. Event of Default. In the event (each, an Event of Default) that:

(a) a Revolving Credit Default shall have occurred and is continuing, and/or

(b) a Pari Passu Default shall have occurred and is continuing, and/or

(c) the Borrower shall fail to pay any principal of any Advance or interest thereon pursuant to this Promissory Note when the same becomes due and payable,

then, and in any such event, the Lender may, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Advances, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Promissory Note to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Advances, all such interest and all such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; provided that in the case of the occurrence of (i) a Revolving Credit Default of the type referred to in Section 8.01(g) or (h) of the Revolving Credit Agreement in effect on the date hereof, or any similar provisions of any other Revolving Credit Agreement, (ii) a Pari Passu Default of the type referred to in Section 8.01(g) or (h) of the Term Loan Agreement in effect on the date hereof, or any similar provisions of any other Pari Passu Loan Document or (iii) an Event of Default under clause (c) above [or in the case that any financial statements of the Borrower show the book value of the net assets of the Borrower have fallen to below half of its stated share capital (Stammkapital)]¹⁰, the Advances, and all such interest and all other amounts owing hereunder shall automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are


⁸		Insert for Canadian borrower.

⁹		Insert for U.S. borrower.

¹⁰		Insert for German borrower

hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. [The Borrower represents and warrants that it has obtained shareholder approval by resolution authorizing the Borrower to permit the Lender to terminate this Promissory Note and to claim immediate repayment of all sums due hereunder in case of a change of control as contemplated by the Revolving Credit Agreement and/or the Pari Passu Loan Documents and that such resolution will be timely filed with the Clerks Office of the competent Commercial Court (article 556 Belgian Companies Code).]¹¹

6. Governing Law. This Promissory Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of [Intercompany Borrower Jurisdiction], without giving effect to principles of conflict of laws thereof.

7. Amendments. This Promissory Note cannot be amended without the consent of each of (i) the parties hereto and (ii) prior to the Discharge of Revolving Credit Secured Obligations, the Revolving Credit Administrative Agent and (iii) prior to the Discharge of Pari Passu Secured Obligations, the Authorized Pari Passu Collateral Agent.

8. Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees and legal expenses, incurred by the Lender in endeavoring to collect any amounts payable hereunder which are not paid when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise.

9. No Set Off. Unless required by applicable law, and subject to the terms of the Subordination Agreements, at no time may the Lender appropriate and apply toward the payment of all or any part of the obligations of the Borrower under this Promissory Note (i) any other indebtedness due or to become due from the Borrower to the Lender, and (ii) any moneys, credits or other property belonging to the Borrower, at any time held by or coming into the possession of the Lender.

10. Taxes. (a) In the event that a Revolving Credit Default and/or a Pari Passu Default has occurred and is continuing, any and all payments by the Borrower under this Promissory Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, duties, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i) in the case of the Lender taxes measured by its net income and franchise taxes imposed on it, and similar taxes imposed by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which the Lender is organized, and (ii) in the case of the Lender, except to the extent arising solely as a result of entering into this Promissory Note, taxes measured by its net income and franchise taxes imposed on it as a result of a present or former connection between the Lender and the jurisdiction of the governmental authority imposing such tax or any taxing authority thereof or therein, other than the entering into of the Promissory Note (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, duties, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as Taxes). If any Taxes shall be required by law to be withheld or deducted from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Lender (w) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings in respect of Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 10) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (x) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, (y) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant

taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (z) the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender evidence of such payment.

(b) In addition, if a Revolving Credit Default and/or a Pari Passu Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp, registration, notarization or documentary or similar taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies, and all liabilities with respect thereto, in each case arising from any payment made or credited under or in connection with this Promissory Note or from the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Promissory Note (collectively, Other Taxes).

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Lender for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 10) paid by the Lender and any liability (including for penalties, interest and expenses) that arises from any payment made or crediting of amounts hereunder or from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Promissory Note, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Lender makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower, the Borrower shall furnish the Lender, pursuant to the indemnity set forth in clause (c) above , the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of payment thereof reasonably acceptable to Lender.

11. Judgment Currency. (a) This is an international loan transaction in which the specification of [Currency] is of the essence, and [Currency] shall in each instance be the currency of account and payment in all instances.

(c) If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against Lender in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than [Currency] (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the Other Currency) an amount due in [Currency], the conversion shall be made at the spot selling rate at which the Authorized Pari Passu Collateral Agent (or following the Discharge of Pari Passu Secured Obligations, the Revolving Credit Administrative Agent) (or if the Authorized Pari Passu Collateral Agent (or, following the Discharge of Pari Passu Secured Obligations, the Revolving Credit Administrative Agent) does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Authorized Pari Passu Collateral Agent (or, following the Discharge of Pari Passu Secured Obligations, the Revolving Credit Administrative Agent)) offers to sell such Other Currency for [Currency] in the London foreign exchange market at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time on such date for delivery two (2) Business Days later (such date of determination of such spot selling rate, being hereinafter referred to as the Other Currency Conversion Date).
