Ladies and Gentlemen:

You have advised JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan Chase Bank”), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“JPMorgan”), Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Goldman Sachs Bank”) and Bank of Montreal (“Bank of Montreal”) acting under its trade name BMO Capital Markets (“BMO Capital Markets”) (collectively, the “Commitment Parties”, “us” or “we”) that Darling International Inc., a Delaware corporation (“you” or the “Parent Borrower”), intends to acquire the entities, operations and assets representing the Vion Ingredients Division (the “Target”) of VION Holding N.V. (the “Seller”), and consummate the other transactions described on Exhibit A hereto. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are used with the meanings assigned to them in the Exhibits, including the Credit Agreements (as defined below) attached hereto (such Exhibits, together with this letter, collectively, the “TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter”).

In connection with the Transactions, (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank is pleased to advise you of its several and not joint commitment to provide 55.6% of the Term Loan B Facility and 31.9% of the Bridge Facility, (b) Goldman Sachs Bank is pleased to advise you of its several and not joint commitment to provide 22.2% of the Term Loan B Facility and 52.5% of the Bridge Facility and (c) Bank of Montreal (each of JPMorgan Chase Bank, Goldman Sachs Bank and Bank of Montreal, an “Initial Lender” and collectively the “Initial Lenders”) is pleased to advise you of its several and not joint commitment to provide 22.2% of the Term Loan B Facilities and 15.6% of the Bridge Facility, in each case, upon the terms set forth in this letter and the forms of credit agreements attached hereto as Exhibits B (the “Senior Secured Credit Agreement”) and C (the “Bridge Credit Agreement” and collectively with the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”), the initial funding of which is subject only to the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 and 4.03 of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and Section 4.01 and 4.02 of the Bridge Credit Agreement.

The Parent Borrower currently intends to issue Senior Unsecured Notes and/or Equity Securities to finance a portion of the Acquisition. In the event that on or after the date hereof and on or prior to the Closing Date the Parent Borrower and/or its subsidiaries receive any net cash proceeds from (i) the issuance of Senior Unsecured Notes and/or Equity Securities, upon receipt of such net cash proceeds the commitments in respect of the Bridge Facility will be permanently reduced by the amount of such net cash proceeds on a dollar-for-dollar basis (and on a ratable basis among the Commitment Parties based on the amount of each Commitment Parties’ commitment in respect of the Bridge Facility on the date hereof).

It is agreed that:

(a) (i) each of JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs Bank and Bank of Montreal will act as joint lead arranger and joint bookrunner for the Term Loan B Facility (acting in such capacities, the “Senior Lead Arrangers”), (ii) JPMorgan Chase Bank will act as sole administrative agent for the Term Loan B Facility and (iii) Goldman Sachs Bank and Bank of Montreal will each act as a syndication agent for the Term Loan B Facility; and

(b) (i) each of Goldman Sachs Bank, JPMorgan and Bank of Montreal will act as joint lead arranger and joint bookrunner for the Bridge Facility (acting in such capacities, the “Bridge Lead Arrangers”) and, together with the Senior Lead Arrangers, the “Lead Arrangers”), (ii) Goldman Sachs Bank will act as sole administrative agent for the Bridge Facility and (iii) JPMorgan Chase Bank and Bank of Montreal will each act as a syndication agent for the Bridge Facility.

It is further agreed that (a) JPMorgan will have “left” placement in any marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with the Term Loan B Facility and Goldman Sachs Bank will have immediate right placement in any marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with the Term Loan B Facility and (b) Goldman Sachs Bank will have “left” placement in any marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with the Bridge Facility and JPMorgan Chase Bank will have immediate right placement in any marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with the Bridge Facility. You agree that no other agents, co-agents, arrangers, co-arrangers, bookrunners, co-bookrunners, managers or co-managers will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than that expressly contemplated by this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter and the Fee Letters referred to below) will be paid in connection with the TLB/Bridge Facilities unless you and we shall so reasonably agree; provided that within 10 business days of the date hereof you may appoint additional agents or co-agents in respect of the Term Loan B Facility with economics determined by you in consultation with us (each an “Additional Initial Lender”) subject to such Additional Initial Lender entering into customary joinder documentation pursuant to which such Additional Initial Lender (or its affiliate) becomes a party hereto and assumes a portion of the Initial Lenders’ commitments in respect of the Term Loan B Facility in a proportion at least equal to its economics in respect thereof (such reduction in the Initial Lenders’ commitments to be ratable based on the amounts thereof at the time of such assumption); provided further that no Additional Initial Lender shall be entitled to greater economics in respect of the Term Loan B Facility than the Commitment Parties and in any case, JPMorgan and JPMorgan Chase collectively shall be entitled to at least 50% of the economics in respect of the Term Loan B Facility, Goldman Sachs Bank shall be entitled to at least 20% of the economics in respect of the Term Loan B Facility and Bank of Montreal shall be entitled to at least 20% of the economics in respect of the Term Loan B Facility). Upon any Additional Initial Lender assuming such commitment it shall be deemed an “Initial Lender” and “Commitment Party” hereunder.

We intend to syndicate the TLB/Bridge Facilities to a group of lenders identified by us in consultation with you and reasonably acceptable to you (together with the Initial Lenders, the “Lenders”); it being understood that we will not syndicate to (i) those Persons that are competitors of you or your subsidiaries or the Target or (ii) such other Persons, in each case, identified in writing to us prior to the date hereof (in each case, together with any person that is a readily identifiable Affiliate of any person set forth in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Disqualified Institutions”); provided that the Parent Borrower, upon reasonable notice to the Lead Arrangers after the date hereof shall be permitted to supplement in writing the list of Persons that are Disqualified Institutions to the extent such supplemented Person is either a competitor that is an operating company or an Affiliate of any operating company competitor (other than an Affiliate that is a Bona Fide Debt Fund, unless such Person is otherwise a Disqualified Institution under clause (ii) above). For purposes of the preceding sentence and the following definitions (a) “Affiliate” means, with respect to a specified Person, another Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls or is Controlled by or is under common Control with the Person specified, (b) “Control” and “Controlled” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of a Person, whether through the ability to exercise voting power, by contract or otherwise, (c) “Person” means any natural person, corporation, limited liability company, trust, joint venture, association, company, partnership, governmental authority or other entity and (d) “Bona Fide Debt Fund” means any bona fide (A) debt fund, (B) investment vehicle, (C) regulated bank entity or (D) non-regulated lending entity that is, in each case, engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of business that is managed, sponsored or advised by any person Controlling, Controlled by or under common Control with a competitor. Notwithstanding any other provision of this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter to the contrary and notwithstanding any syndication or assignment by any Initial Lender (i) no Initial Lender shall be relieved or novated from its obligations hereunder in connection with any syndication or assignment until after the Closing Date, (ii) no such assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to any portion of any Initial Lender’s commitment in respect of the TLB/Bridge Facilities until the initial funding of the TLB/Bridge Facilities on the Closing Date and (iii) unless the Parent Borrower agrees in writing, each Initial Lender shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments, including all rights with respect to consents, waivers, modifications, supplements and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred.

Such assistance shall include (A) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts benefit from your existing banking relationships, (B) direct contact between your senior management and the proposed Lenders (and, subject to the limitations on your rights under the Acquisition Agreement, using your commercially reasonable efforts to ensure such contact between your non-legal advisors and senior management of the Target and the proposed Lenders), (C) your assistance (and, subject to the limitations on your rights under the Acquisition Agreement, using commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to assist) in the preparation of a customary confidential information memorandum (a “Confidential Information Memorandum”) and other customary marketing and information materials to be used in connection with the syndication of the TLB/Bridge Facilities (all such information, memoranda and material, “Information Materials”), subject to the limitations on your rights to request information concerning the Target as set

forth in the Acquisition Agreement, (D) the hosting, with the Lead Arrangers and appropriate members of senior management of the Parent Borrower, of meetings (or, if you and we shall agree, conference calls in lieu of any such meetings) of prospective Lenders at times and locations to be mutually agreed (and, subject to the limitations on your rights under the Acquisition Agreement, using your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the senior management of the Target to be available for such meetings), (E) your using your commercially reasonable efforts to obtain (x) corporate credit and/or corporate family ratings for the Parent Borrower and (y) ratings for the TLB/Bridge Facilities and the Senior Unsecured Notes (if any), in each case from each of Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”) prior to the launch of general syndication, and (F) prior to the end of the Syndication Period, your ensuring that there is no competing offering, placement, arrangement or syndication of any debt securities (other than the Senior Unsecured Notes or debt securities issued in lieu of the Senior Unsecured Notes) or bank financing (other than the TLB/Bridge Facilities and the Backstopped Facilities), or any announcement with respect thereto, by or on behalf of you or, subject to the limitations in your rights under the Acquisition Agreement, after using your commercially reasonable efforts, the Target (it being understood that each of the Rothsay division of Maple Leaf Foods Inc.’s (“Rothsay”) and the Target’s ordinary course short-term working capital facilities (foreign and domestic) and ordinary course capital lease, purchase money and equipment financings and letters of credit, in each case incurred by or issued for the account of, as the case may be, you, Rothsay, the Target or any of your subsidiaries, will not be deemed to be competing with the primary syndication of the TLB/Bridge Facilities or the placement of the Senior Unsecured Notes). Upon the request of any Commitment Party, you will furnish, for no fee, to such Commitment Party an electronic version of your trademarks, service marks and corporate logo for use in marketing materials for the sole purpose of facilitating the syndication of the TLB/Bridge Facilities and you will agree to grant to such Commitment Party a limited, non-exclusive license to use such trademarks, service marks and corporate logo solely in marketing materials and solely for such purpose (the “License”); provided, however, that the License shall be used solely for the purpose described above and may not be assigned, sublicensed or transferred and you shall have approval rights over all uses of such trademark, service mark and corporate logo and the content of the materials with which it is to be used. All use of such trademarks, service marks and corporate logo by any such Commitment Party shall inure to the sole benefit of you.

In addition to the foregoing, the Parent Borrower will use reasonable efforts to obtain the following within the time periods set forth below (and within 1 business day of receipt, in the case of historical financials, or 1 business day of availability, in the case of pro forma financials, shall deliver any such obtained items to the Commitment Parties):

Historical Financials. (i) At least 30 calendar days prior to the Vion Acquisition Closing Date, (a) audited consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Vion, for the three most recently completed fiscal years ended at least 90 days before the Vion Acquisition Closing Date and (b) unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Vion for the most recent fiscal quarter ended at least 45 days before the Vion Acquisition Closing Date (together with interim financial statements for the comparable prior year period), in each case meeting the requirements of Regulation S-X as applicable to the Parent Borrower for Form S-1 registration statements.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters or the Loan Documents, neither the commencement nor the completion of the syndication of the TLB/Bridge Facilities, nor the obtaining of the ratings nor the delivery of the historical and pro forma financial statements referred to above, shall constitute a condition precedent to the Closing Date.

The Commitment Parties will manage, in consultation with you (and subject to your consent rights set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 3), all aspects of the syndication, including decisions as to the selection of prospective Lenders to be approached (which may not be Disqualified Institutions) and when they will be approached, when the Lenders’ commitments will be accepted, which Lenders will participate, the allocation of the commitments among the Lenders and the amount and distribution of fees among the Lenders. You hereby acknowledge and agree that the Lead Arrangers, in their capacity as such, will have no responsibility other than to arrange the syndication as set forth herein.

At the request of the Commitment Parties, you agree to assist in the preparation of a version of each Confidential Information Memorandum or other Information Materials (a “Public Version”) consisting exclusively of information with respect to you and your subsidiaries, the Target and the Acquisition that is either publicly available or not material with respect to you and your subsidiaries, the Target, any of your or their respective securities or the Acquisition for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws (such information, “Non-MNPI”). Such Public Versions, together with any other information prepared by you or the Target or your subsidiaries or representatives and conspicuously marked “Public” (collectively, the “Public Information”), which at a minimum means that the word “Public” will appear prominently on the first page of any such information, may be distributed by us to prospective Lenders who have advised us that they wish to receive only Non-MNPI (“Public Side Lenders”), and you shall be deemed to have authorized the Public Side Lenders to treat such Public Information as containing Non-MNPI. You acknowledge and agree that, in addition to Public Information and except to the extent you promptly notify us to the contrary and provided that you shall have been given a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comply with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission disclosure requirements, (a) drafts and final definitive documentation with respect to the TLB/Bridge Facilities, (b) administrative materials prepared by the Commitment Parties for prospective Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, allocations and funding and closing memoranda) and (c) notifications of changes in the terms of the TLB/Bridge Facilities may be distributed to Public Side Lenders. You acknowledge that Commitment Party public-side employees and representatives who are publishing debt analysts may participate in any public meetings held pursuant to

clause (D) of the second preceding paragraph; provided that such analysts shall not publish any information obtained from any such public meetings (i) until the syndication of the TLB/Bridge Facilities has been completed upon the making of allocations by the Lead Arrangers and the Lead Arrangers freeing the TLB/Bridge Facilities to trade or (ii) in violation of any confidentiality agreement between you and the relevant Commitment Party.

In connection with our distribution to prospective Lenders of any Confidential Information Memorandum and, upon our request, any other Information Materials, you will execute and deliver to us a customary authorization letter authorizing such distribution and, in the case of any Public Version thereof, representing that it only contains Non-MNPI. Each Confidential Information Memorandum will be accompanied by a disclaimer exculpating you and us with respect to any use thereof and of any related Information Materials by the recipients thereof. All Information (as defined below), Projections and other materials not specifically identified as Public Information shall be treated as suitable only for posting to private Lenders.

You hereby represent and warrant that (with respect to any information relating to either Rothsay or the Target, to your knowledge) (a) all written information (including all Information Materials) concerning you, Rothsay, the Target and your subsidiaries, other than the Projections, other forward looking information and information of a general economic or industry specific nature that has been or will be made available to us by you or any of your representatives on your behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Information”), when taken as a whole, does not or will not, when furnished to us, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (giving effect to all supplements thereto) and (b) the financial projections and other forward looking information originated by the Parent Borrower that have been or will be made available to us by you or any of your representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Projections”) have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by you to be reasonable at the time furnished to us (it being recognized by the Commitment Parties that such Projections are not to be viewed as facts and are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies many of which are beyond your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular Projections will be realized, that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ from the projected results, and such differences may be material). You agree that if, at any time during the Syndication Period, you become aware that any representation in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and any such representation were being made, at such time, then you will (or, with respect to the Information and Projections relating to either Rothsay or the Target, will use your commercially reasonable efforts to) promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that (with respect to Information and Projections relating to either Rothsay or the Target, to your knowledge) such representations would be correct, in all material respects, under those circumstances; provided, that any such supplementation shall cure any breach of such representations. You understand that in arranging and syndicating the TLB/Bridge Facilities we may use and rely on the Information and Projections without independent verification thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter or the Fee Letters, none of the making of any representation under this Section 4, any supplement thereto, or the accuracy of any such representation shall constitute a condition precedent to the availability and initial funding of the TLB/Bridge Facilities on the Closing Date.

As consideration for the commitments and agreements of the Commitment Parties hereunder, you agree to pay or cause to be paid the nonrefundable fees described in the TLB/Bridge Facilities Fee Letter dated the date hereof and delivered herewith with respect to the TLB/Bridge Facilities (the “TLB/Bridge Facilities Fee Letter”), in the Senior Secured Facilities Administrative Agency Fee Letter dated the date hereof and delivered herewith with respect to the Senior Secured Facilities (the “Senior Secured Facilities Administrative Agency Fee Letter”) and in the Bridge Facility Administrative Agency Fee Letter dated the date hereof and delivered herewith with respect to the Bridge Facility (the “Bridge Facility Administrative Agency Fee Letter”, and collectively with the TLB/Bridge Facilities Fee Letter and the Senior Secured Facilities Administrative Agency Fee Letter, the “Fee Letters”), in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein.

Each Commitment Party’s commitments and agreements hereunder (a) with respect to the Term Loan B Facility are subject only to the conditions set forth in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement relating to the Term Loan B Facility and (b) with respect to the Bridge Facility are subject only to the conditions set forth in the Bridge Credit Agreement, and in each case, upon satisfaction (or waiver by the Commitment Parties) of such applicable conditions, the Commitment Parties shall provide, or cause to be provided, the initial funding of the Term Loan B Facility and the Bridge Facility, as applicable; it being understood that there are no conditions (implied or otherwise, including compliance with the terms of this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters and/or the Loan Documents (as defined in each of the Credit Agreements, the “Loan Documents”) to the commitments hereunder other than those that are expressly stated in each Credit Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Commitment Parties hereby agree to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which they are a party within one business day following the request by the Parent Borrower to do so (which request shall not be given by the Parent Borrower before the date that is 7 days prior to the anticipated Vion Acquisition Closing Date unless otherwise agreed between the Commitment Parties and the Parent Borrower), subject to the satisfaction or waiver (by the Commitment Parties) of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.01 of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and Bridge Credit Agreement, as applicable.

You agree (a) to indemnify and hold harmless the Commitment Parties, their respective affiliates and their respective directors, officers and employees (each, an “indemnified person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities to which any such indemnified person may become subject arising out of or in connection with this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters, the TLB/Bridge Facilities, the use of the proceeds thereof or the Acquisition and the Transactions or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing (a “Proceeding”), regardless of whether any indemnified person is a party thereto or, whether or not such Proceedings are brought by you, your equity holders, subsidiaries, creditors or any other person, and to reimburse each indemnified person within 30 days of a written demand (together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request) for any reasonable and documented legal or other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing by one counsel to such indemnified persons, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant material jurisdiction to all such persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the indemnified person affected by such conflict informs you of such conflict and thereafter, after receipt of your consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or

delayed), retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel (or if applicable one local counsel in any relevant material jurisdiction) for such affected indemnified person); provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any indemnified person, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent they are found by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from (i) the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of, or material breach of this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters or the Loan Documents by, such indemnified person or its affiliates, directors, officers or employees (collectively, the “Related Parties”) or (ii) disputes solely among indemnified persons (other than as a Lead Arranger of or an agent under a TLB/Bridge Facility acting in its capacity as such) and/or the Related Parties and not arising out of any act or omission of the Parent Borrower, the Seller, the Target or any of your or the Seller’s subsidiaries and (b) regardless of whether the Closing Date occurs, to reimburse each Commitment Party and its affiliates within 30 days of written demand for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses that have been invoiced (including due diligence expenses, applicable syndication expenses, travel expenses, and limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel to the Commitment Parties, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant material jurisdiction to all such persons, taken as a whole) incurred in connection with each of the TLB/Bridge Facilities and any related documentation (including this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter and the Loan Documents). It is further agreed that each Commitment Party shall only have liability to you (as opposed to any other person) and that each Commitment Party shall be liable solely in respect of its own commitment to the TLB/Bridge Facilities on a several, and not joint, basis with any other Commitment Parties. No indemnified person or any other party hereto shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of Information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent any such damages are found by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or material breach of this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters or the Loan Documents by, such indemnified person (or any of its Related Parties). None of the indemnified persons or their affiliates, or you or any of your subsidiaries, or the respective directors, officers, employees, advisors, and agents of the foregoing shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages in connection with this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter, the Fee Letters, the TLB/Bridge Facilities or the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit your indemnity obligations to the extent set forth in this Section 7. You shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without your consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with your written consent, or if there is a final judgment against an indemnified person in any such Proceeding, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each indemnified person in the manner set forth above in this Section 7. You shall not, without the prior written consent of the affected indemnified person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding against such indemnified person in respect of which indemnity has been sought hereunder by such indemnified person unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified person from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and (ii) does not include any statement as to any admission of fault. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each indemnified person shall be obligated to refund and return any and all amounts paid by you under this paragraph to such indemnified person for any such fees, expenses or damages to the extent such indemnified person is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms hereof.

You acknowledge that each Commitment Party (or an affiliate) is a full service securities firm and such person may from time to time effect transactions, for its own or its affiliates’ account or the account of customers, and hold positions in loans, securities or options on loans or securities of you, the Seller, the Target, your or their respective affiliates and of other companies that may be the subject of the

transactions contemplated by this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter. In addition, each Commitment Party and its affiliates will not use confidential information obtained from you or your affiliates or on your or their behalf by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby in connection with the performance by such Commitment Party and its affiliates of services for other companies or persons and the Commitment Party and its affiliates will not furnish any such information to any of their other customers. You also acknowledge that the Commitment Parties and their respective affiliates have no obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, or to furnish to you, confidential information obtained from other companies or persons.

You further acknowledge and agree that (a) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between you and the Commitment Parties is intended to be or has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter, irrespective of whether the Commitment Parties have advised or are advising you on other matters, (b) the Commitment Parties, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand, have an arm's length business relationship that does not directly or indirectly give rise to, nor do you rely on, any fiduciary duty to you or your subsidiaries on the part of the Commitment Parties, (c) you are capable of evaluating and understanding, and you understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this TLB/Bridge Facilities Commitment Letter, (d) you have been advised that the Commitment Parties are engaged in a broad range of transactions that may involve interests that differ from your interests and that the Commitment Parties have no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to you, (e) you have consulted your own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent you have deemed appropriate, (f) each Commitment Party has been, is, and will be acting solely as a principal and, except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing by it and the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for you, any of your subsidiaries or any other person or entity and (g) none of the Commitment Parties has any obligation to you or your subsidiaries with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein or in any other express writing executed and delivered by such Commitment Party and you or any such affiliate.
