FORM OF NOTE
 
 
[          ], 201[ ]
 
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, and its successors and assigns (the “Administrative Agent”), in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement (as defined below), the principal amount of each [Tranche A Loan]/[Tranche B1 Loan]/[Tranche B2 Loan]/[Tranche D Loan] from time to time made by the Lenders to the Borrower under that certain Credit Agreement dated as of August 22, 2011 (as hereafter amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement;” the terms defined therein being used herein as therein defined) between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the lenders from time to time party thereto.
 
The Borrower promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each [Tranche A Loan]/[Tranche B1 Loan]/[Tranche B2 Loan]/[Tranche D Loan] from the date of such Loan until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates and at such times as provided in the Credit Agreement. The aggregate unpaid amount of all [Tranche A Loans]/[Tranche B1 Loans]/[Tranche B2 Loans]/[Tranche D Loans] recorded by the Administrative Agent on its books or set forth on the schedule attached hereto shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of the unpaid principal amount of this Note. All payments of principal and interest shall be made to the Administrative Agent in Dollars in immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the Administrative Agent. If any amount is not paid in full when due hereunder, such unpaid amount shall bear interest, to be paid upon demand, from the due date thereof until the date of actual payment (and before as well as after judgment) computed at the per annum rate set forth in the Credit Agreement.
 
This Note is the Note referred to in the Credit Agreement, is entitled to the benefits thereof and may be prepaid in whole or in part subject to the terms and conditions provided therein. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in the Credit Agreement, all amounts then remaining unpaid on this Note shall become, or may be declared to be, immediately due and payable all as provided in the Credit Agreement. [Tranche A Loans]/[Tranche B1 Loans]/[Tranche B2 Loans]/[Tranche D Loans] made by the Lenders shall be evidenced by one or more loan accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The Administrative Agent may also attach schedules to this Note and endorse thereon the date, type, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.
 
The Borrower, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand and notice of protest, demand, dishonor and non-payment of this Note.
