(“Swissco” and, together with Finance, the “Borrowers”), the LC SUBSIDIARIES from time to time party thereto, the LENDERS from time to time party thereto and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent.

The Borrowers have requested that the Credit Agreement be amended and restated as set forth in Section 1 below, the parties hereto are willing so to amend the Credit Agreement and each Lender that will have a Commitment after giving effect to the amendment and restatement of the Credit Agreement contemplated hereby is a party hereto.

In consideration of the premises and the agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, as follows:

SECTION 1. Amendment and Restatement. (a) Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment Agreement as provided in Section 2 below, the Credit Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits thereto) shall be amended and restated to read as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto (including the Schedules and Exhibits attached to such Exhibit A), and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to enter into such Loan Documents and to take such other actions as may be required to give effect to the transactions contemplated hereby. As so amended and restated, the Credit Agreement is hereinafter referred to as the “Restated Credit Agreement”.

(b) From and after the effectiveness of such amendment and restatement, the terms “Agreement”, “this Agreement”, “herein”, “hereinafter”, “hereto”, “hereof” and words of similar import, as used in the Restated Credit Agreement, shall, unless the context otherwise requires, refer to the Credit Agreement as amended and restated in the form of the Restated Credit Agreement, and the term “Credit Agreement”, as used in the Loan Documents, shall mean the Restated Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Restated Credit Agreement.

(c) In order to reflect the renumbering of certain Articles and Sections of the Credit Agreement in the Restated Credit Agreement, from and after the effectiveness of such amendment and restatement, any reference in any Loan Document (other than the Restated Credit Agreement) to Article IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX or X of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be a reference to Article III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII or IX, respectively, of the Restated Credit Agreement, and references to Section numbers in

such Articles of the Credit Agreement, and to Schedules identified by such Section numbers, will be deemed changed to correspond to the numbers of the Articles of the Restated Credit Agreement in which such Sections appear.

(d) Each LC Subsidiary that is a party hereto hereby confirms that it is a party to the Credit Agreement and constitutes an “LC Subsidiary” for all purposes thereof, and affirms and agrees that it is bound by all provisions of the Credit Agreement applicable to it as an LC Subsidiary.

(e) In connection with the satisfaction of the condition set forth in clause (h) of Section 4.01 of the Restated Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent and each Lender party to the Credit Agreement hereby waive any requirement set forth in Section 2.10(d) or any other provision of the Credit Agreement that conditions any prepayment of Loans thereunder on a delivery by a Borrower of any prior written notice.

SECTION 2. Conditions to Effectiveness. This Amendment Agreement and the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and issue Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby shall become effective on the date on which the conditions specified in Section 4.01 of the Restated Credit Agreement are satisfied (or waived in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Restated Credit Agreement).

SECTION 3. Applicable Law. THIS AMENDMENT AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 4. No Novation. Neither this Amendment Agreement nor the effectiveness of the Restated Credit Agreement shall extinguish the Obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Credit Agreement or discharge or release, or affect the priority of, the Lien of any Loan Document or any other security therefor or any guarantee thereof, and the liens and security interests in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties securing payment of the Obligations are in all respects continuing and in full force and effect with respect to all Obligations. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation, or a payment and reborrowing, or a termination, of the Obligations outstanding under the Credit Agreement or instruments guaranteeing or securing the same, except as amended, amended and restated or modified hereby or by instruments executed concurrently herewith.

SECTION 5. Counterparts. This Amendment Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute one contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment Agreement by facsimile or email transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment Agreement. This Amendment Agreement shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Restated Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
