20



Pro Rata Share; provided that, the Global Administrative Agent may allocate any Syndicated Global Advance on a non-pro rata basis to the extent the failure to so allocate would cause a Syndicated Global Lender’s Loans to exceed such Syndicated Global Lender’s Commitment. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Global Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Syndicated Global Loans at any time prior to the Termination Date. Each Global Borrower may select, in accordance with Sections 2.6 and 2.8 and subject to the other conditions and limitations therein set forth and set forth in this Article II, Global Rate Options and Interest Periods applicable to portions of the Syndicated Global Advances.

(A)     Right to Convert. The applicable Borrower may elect from time to time, subject to the provisions of Section 2.6, Section 2.7 and this Section 2.8, to convert all or any part of an Advance of any Type into any other Type or Types of Advance; provided that any conversion of any Fixed Rate Advance or Fixed Rate Loan shall be made on, and only on, the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

22



(i)     The applicable Global Borrower may request a Bid Rate Advance under this Section 2.10(b) by giving the Global Administrative Agent irrevocable notice at the office and location specified by the Global Administrative Agent, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Global Administrative Agent (a “Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice”), specifying the date and aggregate amount of the proposed Bid Rate Advance, the maturity date for repayment of each Bid Rate Loan to be made as part of such Bid Rate Advance (which maturity date may not be earlier than, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, the date occurring thirty days, and in the case of an Indexed Rate Auction, the date occurring one month after the date of the related Bid Rate Advance or later than, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, the earlier of the day occurring 180 days after the date of such Bid Rate Advance and the Termination Date, and in the case of an Indexed Rate Auction, the earlier of the day occurring six months after the date of such Bid Rate Advance and the Termination Date), the interest payment date or dates relating thereto, and any other terms to be applicable to such Bid Rate Advance, not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) (A) one Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Bid Rate Advance, if the applicable Global Borrower shall specify in the Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice that the rates of interest to be offered by the Syndicated Global Lenders shall be absolute rates per annum (such type of solicitation being an “Absolute Rate Auction”) and (B) five (5) Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Bid Rate Advance, if the applicable Global Borrower shall specify in the Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice that the rates of interest to be offered by the Syndicated Global Lenders shall be based on the Eurodollar Base Rate (such type of solicitation being an “Indexed Rate Auction”). The Global Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt of a Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice under this Section 2.10(b), notify each Syndicated Global Lender of such request by sending such Syndicated Global Lender a copy of such Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice.
(ii)     Each Syndicated Global Lender may, if, in its sole discretion, it elects to do so, irrevocably offer to make one or more Bid Rate Loans to the applicable Global Borrower as part of such proposed Bid Rate Advance at a rate or rates of interest specified by such Syndicated Global Lender in its sole discretion, by notifying the Global Administrative Agent (which shall give prompt notice thereof to the applicable Global Borrower), before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) (or if such Syndicated Global Lender is the Global Administrative Agent, before 10:45 a.m. (New York time)) (A) on the date of such proposed Bid Rate Advance, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, and (B) four Business Days before the date of such proposed Bid Rate Advance, in the case of an Indexed Rate Auction of the minimum amount and maximum amount of each Bid Rate Loan which such Syndicated Global Lender would be willing to make as part of such proposed Bid Rate Advance (which amounts may, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.10(a), exceed such Syndicated Global Lender’s Commitment), the rate or rates of interest, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, or the spread or spreads with respect to the Eurodollar Base Rate, in the case of an Indexed Rate Auction, therefor and such Syndicated Global Lender’s Lending Installation with respect to such Bid Rate Loan.
(iii)     The applicable Global Borrower shall, in turn, before (A) 12:00 noon (New York time) on the date of such proposed Bid Rate Advance, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, and (B) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) three Business Days before the date of such proposed Bid Rate Advance, in the case of an Indexed Rate Auction for a Bid Rate Advance, either:
(x)cancel such Bid Rate Advance by giving the Global Administrative Agent notice to that effect; or

23



(y)    accept, subject to Section 2.10(d), one or more of the offers made by any Syndicated Global Lender or Syndicated Global Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(ii), in its sole discretion, by giving notice to the Global Administrative Agent of the amount of each Bid Rate Loan (which amount shall be equal to or greater than the minimum amount, and equal to or less than the maximum amount, notified to the applicable Global Borrower by the Global Administrative Agent on behalf of such Syndicated Global Lender for such Bid Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(ii)) to be made by each Syndicated Global Lender as part of such Bid Rate Advance, and reject any remaining offers made by Syndicated Global Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(ii) by giving the Global Administrative Agent notice to that effect.
(iv)     If the applicable Global Borrower notifies the Global Administrative Agent that such Bid Rate Advance is canceled pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(iii)(x), the Global Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Syndicated Global Lenders and such Bid Rate Advance shall not be made.
(v)     If the applicable Global Borrower accepts one or more of the offers made by any Syndicated Global Lender or Syndicated Global Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(iii)(y), the Global Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify (A) each Syndicated Global Lender that has made an offer as described in Section 2.10(b)(ii) of the date, and aggregate amount of such Bid Rate Advance and whether or not any offer or offers made by such Syndicated Global Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(ii) have been accepted by the applicable Global Borrower and (B) each Syndicated Global Lender that is to make a Bid Rate Loan as part of such Bid Rate Advance, of the amount of each Bid Rate Loan to be made by such Syndicated Global Lender as part of such Bid Rate Advance. Each Syndicated Global Lender that is to make a Bid Rate Loan as part of such Bid Rate Advance shall, not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of such Bid Rate Advance specified in the notice received from the Global Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (A) of the preceding sentence, make available for the account of its Lending Installation to the Global Administrative Agent at the Lending Installation of the Global Administrative Agent most recently designated by the Global Administrative Agent for this purpose, such Syndicated Global Lender’s portion of such Bid Rate Advance, in same day funds in Dollars. Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV and after receipt by the Global Administrative Agent of such funds, the Global Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the applicable Global Borrower at the Global Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address. Promptly after each Bid Rate Advance, the Global Administrative Agent will notify each Syndicated Global Lender of the amount of such Bid Rate Advance, the consequent Bid Rate Reduction and the dates upon which such Bid Rate Reduction commenced and will terminate.
(vi)     Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 2.10(b), the applicable Global Borrower may elect at its own discretion to assume the responsibilities of the Global Administrative Agent in connection with the solicitation and acceptance of Bid Rate Loans as described in this section. In the event that the applicable Global Borrower makes the election described in this subsection, all notices to be given by such Borrower to the Global Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) shall be given by such Borrower directly to the Global Administrative Agent and the Syndicated Global Lenders, all notices to be given by the Global Administrative Agent to the Syndicated Global Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) shall be given by such Borrower to the Syndicated Global Lenders, and all notices to be given by the Syndicated Global Lenders to the Global Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) shall be given by the Syndicated Global Lenders to such Borrower and the Global Administrative Agent. In addition, any fee payable to the

24



Global Administrative Agent in connection with the Bid Rate Loans in connection with such Bid Rate Loans solicited and accepted by any Global Borrower pursuant to this clause (vi) is hereby waived.
(b)     Each Bid Rate Advance shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of approximately $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and, following the making of each Bid Rate Advance, the Borrowers shall be in compliance with the limitation set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.10(a).
(c)     Each acceptance by the applicable Global Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(iii)(y) of the offers made in response to a Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice shall be treated as an acceptance of such offers in ascending order of the rates or margins, as applicable, at which the same were made but if, as a result thereof, two or more offers at the same such rate or margin would be partially accepted, then the amounts of the Bid Rate Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted shall be treated as being the amounts which bear the same proportion to one another as the respective amounts of the Bid Rate Loans so offered bear to one another but, in each case, rounded as the Global Administrative Agent (or the applicable Global Borrower in the event such Borrower runs the bid rate process under clause (b)(vi) above) may consider necessary to ensure that the amount of each such Bid Rate Loan is approximately $500,000 or an integral multiple thereof.
(d)     Within the limits and on the conditions set forth in this Section 2.10, each Global Borrower may from time to time borrow under this Section 2.10, repay pursuant to Section 2.10(f), and reborrow under this Section 2.10.
(e)     The applicable Global Borrower shall repay to the Global Administrative Agent, for the account of each Syndicated Global Lender which has made a Bid Rate Loan to it, on the maturity date of such Bid Rate Loan (such maturity date being that specified by such Borrower for repayment of such Bid Rate Loan in the related Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice), or, if earlier, the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 8.1, the then unpaid principal amount of such Bid Rate Loan. No Borrower shall have the right to prepay any principal amount of any Bid Rate Loan without the consent of the applicable Syndicated Global Lender.
(f)     The applicable Global Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Bid Rate Loan made to it, from the date of such Bid Rate Loan to the date the principal amount of such Bid Rate Loan is repaid in full, at the rate of interest for such Bid Rate Loan specified by the Syndicated Global Lender making such Bid Rate Loan in the related notice submitted by such Syndicated Global Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(ii), payable on the interest payment date or dates specified by such Borrower for such Bid Rate Loan in the related Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice and on any date on which such Bid Rate Loan is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise. In the event the term of any Bid Rate Loan shall be longer than three months, interest thereon shall be payable not less frequently than once each three-month period during such term. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice, interest on Bid Rate Advances shall be calculated (a) for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-day year or, when appropriate, 366-day year for Bid Rate Advances made pursuant to an Indexed Rate Auction and (b) for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year for Bid Rate Advances made pursuant to an Absolute Rate Auction.
(g)     Except as provided in clause (b)(vi) above, in connection with each Bid Rate Loan, the applicable Global Borrower shall pay to the Global Administrative Agent the fee with respect thereto

25



set forth in the relevant fee letter dated as of even date herewith between the Borrowers and the Global Administrative Agent.
2.11     Default Rate. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, the Global Administrative Agent may with the consent, and shall upon the request, of the Required Lenders require that such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided herein or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Advances as provided herein.
2.12     Method of Payment. All payments of principal, interest, and fees hereunder to the Global Administrative Agent shall be made, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim (a) at the Global Administrative Agent’s office at the applicable location at which such Advance was made in immediately available funds or at any other Lending Installation of the Global Administrative Agent specified in writing (by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day before the date when due) by the Global Administrative Agent to the applicable Borrower, by 12:00 noon local time in New York, New York on the date when due and shall be made ratably among the relevant Lenders (unless such amount is not to be shared ratably in accordance with the terms hereof). Each Advance shall be repaid or prepaid in Dollars in the amount borrowed and interest payable thereon shall be paid in Dollars. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the obligation of any Borrower in respect of any Advance shall not be discharged by an amount paid in any currency other than Dollars or at another location other than the location designated by the Global Administrative Agent, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent the amount so paid, on prompt conversion into Dollars and transfer to the relevant Lenders under normal banking procedure, does not yield the amount of Dollars due under the Loan Documents. In the event that any payment, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, upon conversion and transfer, does not result in payment of the amount of Dollars due under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall have an independent cause of action against the applicable Borrower(s) for the currency deficit. Each payment delivered to the Global Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Global Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds which the Global Administrative Agent received at its address specified pursuant to Article XIV or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Global Administrative Agent from such Lender.
2.13     Notes, Telephonic Notices. Any Lender may request that the Loans made by it each be evidenced by the applicable Notes to evidence such Lender’s Loans. In such event, each applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Note(s) for such Loans payable to such Lender. Thereafter, such Loans evidenced by such Note(s) and interest thereon shall at all times be represented by one or more Notes, except to the extent that any such Lender subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation. Each Borrower authorizes the applicable Lenders and the Global Administrative Agent to extend Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made

26



by any person or persons that the Global Administrative Agent or Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of such Borrower. Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Global Administrative Agent a written confirmation, signed by an Authorized Officer, if such confirmation is requested by the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Global Administrative Agent and Lenders, (i) the telephonic notice shall govern absent manifest error and (ii) the Global Administrative Agent or Lender, as applicable, shall promptly notify the Authorizing Officer who provided such confirmation of such difference.
2.14     Promise to Pay; Interest and Fees; Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis; Loan Accounts.
(A)     Promise to Pay. Each Borrower unconditionally promises to pay when due the principal amount of each Loan made to it and all other Obligations incurred by it, and to pay all unpaid interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(B)     Interest Payment Dates. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Loan shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the date hereof, and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise). Interest accrued on each Fixed Rate Loan shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Fixed Rate Loan is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Fixed Rate Loan having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest accrued on each Bid Rate Loan shall be payable as provided in Section 2.10(g). Interest accrued on the principal balance of all other Obligations shall be payable in arrears (i) upon repayment thereof in full, (ii) if not theretofore paid in full, at the time such other Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (iii) if not theretofore paid in full, on demand, commencing on the first such day following the date such Obligation became payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
(C)     Fees. The relevant Borrowers shall, or shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, pay to the Global Administrative Agent, for the account of each relevant Lender in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, on arrangements satisfactory to Harley and the Global Administrative Agent, a commitment fee accruing at the rate of the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate per annum from and after the date hereof until the Termination Date on the average daily unused amount of the Aggregate Commitment during a given calendar quarter calculated on the last Business Day of such calendar quarter. All such commitment fees payable under this clause (C) shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December occurring after the date hereof and, in addition, on the Termination Date.
(D)     Interest and Fee Basis. Interest on all Loans (other than Base Rate Loans with respect to which interest is calculated by reference to the Alternate Base Rate) and all fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year. Interest on Base Rate Loans with respect to which interest is calculated by reference to the Alternate Base Rate shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-day year or, when appropriate, 366-day year. Interest shall be payable for the day an Obligation is incurred but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received by the times and in the offices required under Section 2.12. If any payment of principal of or interest on a Loan or any payment of any other Obligations shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

27



(E)     Loan Account. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts (a “Loan Account”) evidencing the Obligations of the Borrowers to such Lender owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amount of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
(F)     Entries Binding. The entries made in the Register and each Loan Account shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, unless any Borrower objects to information contained in the Register and each Loan Account within thirty (30) days of such Borrower’s receipt of such information.
2.15     Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Aggregate Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Global Administrative Agent will notify each relevant Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice, Continuation/Conversion Notice and repayment notice received by it hereunder. The Global Administrative Agent will notify each relevant Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Fixed Rate Loan promptly upon determination of such interest rate.
2.16     Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans at any Lending Installation reasonably selected by such Lender and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and any Notes shall be deemed held by each Lender for the benefit of such Lending Installation. Each Lender may, by written or facsimile notice to the Global Administrative Agent and Harley, designate a Lending Installation through which Loans will be made by it and for whose account Loan payments are to be made.
2.17     Non-Receipt of Funds by the Global Administrative Agent. Unless a Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Global Administrative Agent prior to the date (or time, in the case of a Floating Rate Loan) on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Global Administrative Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Global Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Global Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Global Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Global Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Global Administrative Agent, repay to the Global Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Global Administrative Agent until the date the Global Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day or (ii) in the case of payment by a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan (including without limitation pursuant to Section 2.11 if applicable).
2.18     Maturity Date. This Agreement shall be effective until the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement on the Maturity Date, until all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity and reimbursement obligations, to the extent

28



such obligations have not accrued) shall have been fully paid and satisfied and all financing arrangements under the Loan Documents among the Borrowers and the Lenders shall have been terminated, all of the rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive.
2.19     Term-Out Option. Harley may, by irrevocable written notice to the Global Administrative Agent given not fewer than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Termination Date, elect (such election, the “Term-Out Option”), effective as of the Termination Date (the “Term-Out Date”), to extend the Maturity Date for all or a ratable portion of the Advances outstanding on such date to April 30, 2019; provided that such extension of the Maturity Date shall become effective only if, on the Term-Out Date, (a) no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Term-Out Date and immediately after giving effect to the exercise of the Term-Out Option, (b) the representations and warranties of Harley set forth in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (or in all respects if the applicable representation or warranty is qualified by Material Adverse Effect or materiality) on and as of the Term-Out Date and immediately after giving effect to the exercise of the Term-Out Option, as though made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date), (c) the Global Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate from Harley signed by an Authorized Officer of Harley (1) certifying the accuracy of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) and (2) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by Harley approving or consenting to such extension of the Maturity Date, (d) Harley shall pay to the Global Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a term-out fee equal to 0.75% of the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s outstanding Advances the Maturity Date in respect of which is being extended on the Termination Date pursuant to the exercise of the Term-Out Option in accordance with this Section 2.19, and (e) Harley shall not have previously exercised the Term-Out Option. In the event the Maturity Date shall be so extended, (i) all Advances that are subject to such extension and outstanding on the Termination Date shall continue to constitute Advances following such date, (ii) all Advances that are not subject to such extension but are outstanding on the Termination Date shall be repaid on such date, (iii) the aggregate Commitments will terminate on the Termination Date and the commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.14(C) shall cease to accrue on the Termination Date, and (iv) no Borrower may borrow or reborrow any additional Advances on or after the Termination Date.

If any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law, but excluding those that are merely proposed and not in effect) adopted after the Closing Date (or with respect to any Lender, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender) and having general applicability to all banks (or a Lender’s holding company or applicable Lending Installation for purposes of this Agreement) within the jurisdiction in which such Lender operates (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the effect of and phasing in of capital requirements or other regulations or guidelines passed prior to the Closing Date (or with respect to any Lender, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender)), or any

29



interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or application thereof, or the compliance of any Lender therewith (any of the foregoing, a “Change in Law”; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except to the extent they are merely proposed and not in effect, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or application thereof and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued to the extent having general applicability to all banks (or a Lender’s holding company or applicable Lending Installation for purposes of this Agreement) within the jurisdiction in which the applicable Lender (or its holding company or such Lending Installation) operates),
(i)     subjects the Global Administrative Agent, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation to any Taxes on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Excluded Taxes, and (C) Other Taxes),
(ii)     imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation with respect to its Fixed Rate Loans, or
(iii)     imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation of making, funding or maintaining the Fixed Rate Loans or reduces any amount received by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation in connection with Fixed Rate Loans, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Loans held or interest or fee received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to that Person of making, renewing or maintaining its Commitment or Loans or to reduce any amount received under this Agreement, then, within 30 days after receipt by the relevant Borrower of written demand by such Person pursuant to Section 3.6, such Borrower shall pay such Person that portion of such increased expense incurred or reduction in an amount received which such Person determines is necessary to compensate such Person for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered as reasonably determined by such Person (which determination shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) and consistent with similarly situated customers of such Person under agreements having provisions similar to this Section 3.1 after consideration of such factors as such Person then reasonably determines to be relevant).
3.2     Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender determines (i) the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, any Lending Installation of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender is increased as a result of a “Change” (as defined below), and (ii) such increase in capital or liquidity will result in an increase in the cost to such Lender of maintaining its Loans or its obligation to make Loans

30



hereunder, then, within 30 days after receipt by the relevant Borrower of written demand by such Lender pursuant to Section 3.6, such Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital or liquidity which such Lender determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Loans or its obligation to make Loans hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s policies as to capital adequacy and liquidity) as such amount is reasonably determined by such Lender (which determination shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) and consistent with similarly situated customers of the applicable Lender under agreements having provisions similar to this Section 3.2 after consideration of such factors as such Lender then reasonably determines to be relevant). “Change” means any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law, but excluding those that are merely proposed and not in effect) after the Closing Date (or with respect to any Lender, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender) and having general applicability to all banks and financial institutions within the jurisdiction in which such Lender operates which affects the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender (provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except to the extent they are merely proposed and not in effect, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or application thereof and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued to the extent having general applicability to all banks (or a Lender’s holding company or applicable Lending Installation for purposes of this Agreement) within the jurisdiction in which the applicable Lender (or its holding company or such Lending Installation) operates).
3.3     Availability of Types of Advances. If (i) any Lender determines that maintenance of any of its Fixed Rate Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or directive, whether or not having the force of law, (ii) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Fixed Rate Advance, the Global Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent demonstrable error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate or LIBOR, as applicable, for a Loan for the applicable Interest Period or (iii) the Required Lenders with respect to Fixed Rate Advances determine that (x) deposits of a type, currency and maturity appropriate to match fund Fixed Rate Advances are not available or (y) the interest rate, Eurodollar Rate or LIBOR applicable to a Fixed Rate Advance does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining such a Fixed Rate Advance, then the Global Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Global Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (which notice shall be given by the Global Administrative

31



Agent promptly after such circumstances cease to exist), (A) the availability of Fixed Rate Advances of the affected Type shall be suspended and (B) and, in the case of any occurrence set forth in clause (i), the Global Administrative Agent shall require any affected Fixed Rate Advances to be repaid or, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, at the option of the applicable U.S. Borrower, converted to Base Rate Advances.
3.4     Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Fixed Rate Advance or Bid Rate Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period in the case of a Fixed Rate Advance or the applicable maturity date in the case of a Bid Rate Advance, whether because of acceleration, prepayment, assignment (to the extent such assignment is effected pursuant to Section 3.8) or otherwise, or a Fixed Rate Advance or Bid Rate Advance is not made or continued on the date specified by any Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, Harley and such Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost (including lost profits) incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the Fixed Rate Advance or Bid Rate Advance, as the case may be.
3.5     Taxes. (i) Unless such deduction is required by applicable law, all payments by any Borrower or the Guarantor to or for the account of any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If any Borrower or the Guarantor or the Global Administrative Agent shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent, then, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Section 3.5, (a) the sum payable by such Borrower or the Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.5) such Lender or the Global Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) such Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall make such deductions, (c) such Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law and (d) such Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall furnish to the Global Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of such payment that is reasonably satisfactory to the Global Administrative Agent.
(ii)In addition, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Section 3.5, each Borrower and the Guarantor hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder by the relevant Borrower or the Guarantor to the relevant Lender, or under any Note (but excluding any such taxes, charges or levies in respect of any assignment, sale or transfer or participation by any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent) or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note (“Other Taxes”).
(iii)Each Borrower and the Guarantor hereby agree to indemnify the Global Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid by the

32



Global Administrative Agent or such Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided that each Borrower and the Guarantor shall not be required to so indemnify to the extent any relevant amount is actually compensated for under any other provision of this Agreement. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days of the date the Global Administrative Agent or such Lender makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6.
(iv)At the time or times reasonably requested by a Borrower, the Guarantor, or the Global Administrative Agent, any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under this Agreement or under a Note shall deliver to such Borrower, the Guarantor, or the Global Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower, the Guarantor, or the Global Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by a Borrower, the Guarantor, or the Global Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by such Borrower, the Guarantor, or the Global Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower, the Guarantor, or the Global Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Upon the reasonable request of a Borrower, the Guarantor, or the Global Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.5(iv). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify each Borrower, the Guarantor, and the Global Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender shall deliver to each Borrower, the Guarantor, and the Global Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by such Borrower, the Guarantor, or the Global Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:
(a) in the case of a Lender other than a Non-U.S. Lender, IRS Form W-9 certifying that payments made to such Lender under this Agreement or under a Note are exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;
(b) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement or under a Note, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty, and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement or under a Note, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(c) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender for whom payments under this Agreement or under a Note constitute income that is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by such Lender (or, in the event that such Lender is a Disregarded Entity, by the owner of such Lender), IRS Form W-8ECI;
(d) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, and (2) a certificate to the effect that such Lender (or, in the event that such Lender is a

33



Disregarded Entity, the owner of such Lender) is neither (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code) of the applicable Borrower, nor (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code;
(e) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender (or, in the event that the Non-U.S. Lender is a Disregarded Entity, the owner of such Non-U.S. Lender) that (for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is not the beneficial owner of payments made under this Agreement or under a Note (including a partnership or a participating Lender), (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself, and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 3.5(iv) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide, on behalf of such partners, a certificate of the type described in clause (d)(2) of this Section 3.5(iv); or
(f) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable each Borrower, the Guarantor, and the Global Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld.
(v)Except as provided in clause (xii) below, for any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has failed to provide a Borrower or the Guarantor with the documentation required by Section 3.5(iv) (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, occurring subsequent to the date on which such documentation originally was required to be provided), such Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to additional amounts or indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to Indemnified Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that, should a Non-U.S. Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver the documentation required by Section 3.5(iv), the applicable Borrower or the Guarantor shall take such steps as such Non-U.S. Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Non-U.S. Lender to recover such Taxes.
(vi)If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or under a Note would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to each Borrower, the Guarantor, and the Global Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by a Borrower, the Guarantor or the Global Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Guarantor or the Global Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Person to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.5(vi), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date, whether or not such amendments are included in the definition set forth in Article I.
(vii)Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Global Administrative Agent for (i) any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Companies have not already indemnified the Global Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes

34



and without limiting the obligation of Companies to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.2 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case that are paid or payable by the Global Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such amounts were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 3.5(vii) shall be paid within 10 days after the Global Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount so paid or payable by the Global Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Global Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Global Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Global Administrative Agent under this Section 3.5(vii).
(viii)[Reserved]
(ix)[Reserved]
(x)[Reserved]
(xi)If a Borrower or the Guarantor pays an amount under this Section 3.5, or is required to make a deduction or withholding in relation to a payment hereunder or under any Note and account for the same to the relevant tax authority, which gives or may give rise to a Tax Credit for the recipient of that payment (the “Recipient”), the Recipient shall, promptly upon utilisation or receipt of such Tax Credit, pay an amount to such Borrower or the Guarantor which will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the original amount paid under this Section 3.5 (or withheld or deducted pursuant to applicable law) not been required to have been made, withheld or deducted; provided that nothing in this clause (xi) shall require any Lender to make available its tax return (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential).
(xii)If (i) a Lender or the Global Administrative Agent assigns, transfers or sells all or any portion of its rights and/or delegates all or any portion of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or under a Note or changes its Lending Installation for the purposes of this Agreement, and (ii) as a direct result of circumstances existing at the date of the assignment, transfer, sale, delegation or change, any Borrower or the Guarantor would be obliged to pay any incremental amount under this Section 3.5, then the transferee or Lender acting through its new Lending Installation shall only be entitled to receive payment under this Section 3.5 to the same extent that the previous Lender or the Lender acting through its previous Lending Installation would have been entitled if no such transaction had taken place. If a Lender sells a participation in all or any part of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the participant shall only be entitled to receive payment under this Section 3.5 to the extent that the Lender selling the participation would have been entitled if no such participation had taken place.
3.6     Mitigation; Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Fixed Rate Loans to reduce any liability of the relevant Borrower or the Guarantor to such Lender under Sections 3.1 and 3.2 or to avoid the unavailability of a Type of Advance under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender requiring compensation pursuant to this Article III shall notify the relevant Borrower and the Global Administrative Agent in writing of any Change, law, policy, rule, guideline or directive giving rise to such demand for compensation; provided that the relevant

35



Borrower or the Guarantor shall not be required to pay such amounts to the extent such amounts accrued prior to the date that is 90 days prior to the date of such notice; provided further that, if the circumstances giving rise to such amounts are retroactive, then such 90-day period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. Any demand for compensation pursuant to this Article III shall be in writing and shall state the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5 and shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount. Such written demand shall be rebuttably presumed correct for all purposes. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Fixed Rate Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Fixed Rate Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the applicable fixed rate of interest with respect to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. The obligations of the Borrowers and the Guarantor under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.
3.7     [Reserved]
3.8     Replacement of Affected Lenders. (a) If any Lender (or any Participant holding interests in any Loan owing to such Lender or in any Commitment of such Lender or in any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents) requests compensation under Section 3.1 or 3.2, or (b) if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 3.5, or (c) if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (d) if any Lender (1) shall at any time have (or have a parent that has) a long-term credit rating of lower than BBB from S&P, lower than Baa2 from Moody’s or lower than the equivalent rating from any other nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or shall at any time not have a long-term credit rating from S&P, Moody’s or any other nationally recognized statistical rating organization (in each case under this clause (d)(1) regardless of whether any such circumstances existed at the time such Lender became a Lender), (2) is an Ineligible Institution, (3) enters into, or purports to enter into, an assignment or a participation with an Ineligible Institution in violation of this Agreement or (4) has become the subject of a Bail-In Action (or any case or other proceeding in which a Bail-In Action may occur), then Harley may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Global Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 13.3), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (other than any outstanding Bid Rate Loans held by it) to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) in the case of an assignment to an assignee which is not a Lender, Harley shall have received the prior written consent of the Global Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans (other than Bid Rate Loans) and participations in the relevant Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Harley (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Sections 3.1 or 3.2 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.5, such assignment will result in a

36



reduction in such compensation or payments with respect to the assignee Lender and (iv) in the case of any such assignment arising under clause (d)(1) above, the assignee shall have a credit rating greater than or equal to BBB from S&P, and/or greater than or equal to Baa2 from Moody’s.
3.9      Removal of Lenders. (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if a Lender (or any Participant holding interests in any Loan owing to such Lender or in any Commitment of such Lender or in any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents) (each, a “Demanding Lender”) demands any payment of any amount pursuant to this Article III and the amount so demanded is disproportionately greater than the amount of compensation (if any) that the Borrowers generally are obligated to pay to other Lenders arising out of the same event or circumstance giving rise to such demand (a “Trigger Event”), then Harley may terminate such Demanding Lender’s Commitment hereunder, provided that (A) no Unmatured Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such Commitment termination, (B) in the case of a Demanding Lender, Harley shall concurrently terminate the Commitment of each other Lender that has made a demand for payment under this Article III that arises out of such Trigger Event and that is similarly disproportionate to the amount the Borrowers are generally obligated to pay to other Lenders arising out of such Trigger Event, (C) the Global Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders shall have consented to each such Commitment termination (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, but may include consideration of the adequacy of the liquidity of Harley and its Subsidiaries) and (D) such Demanding Lender shall have been paid all amounts then due to it under this Agreement and each other Loan Document (which, for the avoidance of doubt, the respective Borrowers may pay in connection with any such termination without making ratable payments to any other Lender (other than another Lender that has a Commitment that concurrently is being terminated under this Section 3.9(i))). In no event shall the termination of a Lender’s Commitment in accordance with this Section 3.9(i) impair or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers to make any payment demanded by such Lender in accordance with this Article III. (ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if a Lender has become the subject of a Bail-In Action (or any case or other proceeding in which a Bail-In Action may occur) (each, a “Bail-In Lender”), then Harley may terminate such Bail-In Lender’s Commitment hereunder, provided that (A) no Unmatured Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such Commitment termination, (B) in the case of a Bail-In Lender, Harley shall concurrently terminate the Commitment of each other Lender that is a Bail-In Lender at such time, (C) the Global Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders shall have consented to each such Commitment termination (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, but may include consideration of the adequacy of the liquidity of Harley and its Subsidiaries) and (D) such Bail-In Lender shall have been paid all amounts then due to it under this Agreement and each other Loan Document (which, for the avoidance of doubt, the respective Borrowers may pay in connection with any such termination without making ratable payments to any other Lender (other than another Lender that has a Commitment that concurrently is being terminated under this Section 3.9(ii))).

If any other Default occurs, the Required Lenders may (i) terminate the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder or (ii) declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, and upon any declaration under clause (ii), the Commitments shall terminate and the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which each Borrower expressly waives.

49



(b)     Rescission. If, at any time after termination of the Lenders’ obligations to make Loans but before acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, the relevant Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal of the Loans which 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 in this Agreement) and all Defaults and Unmatured Defaults (other than nonpayment of principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant to Section 8.3, then upon the written consent of the Required Lenders and written notice to Harley, the termination of Lenders’ respective obligations to make Loans or the aforesaid acceleration and its consequences may be rescinded and annulled; but such action shall not affect any subsequent Default or Unmatured Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders to a decision which may be made at the election of the Required Lenders; they are not intended to benefit any Borrower and do not give any Borrower the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any termination of the aforesaid obligations of the Lenders or any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.
8.2     Defaulting Lender. In the event that any Lender fails to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Syndicated Global Advance requested or deemed requested by the applicable Borrower which such Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of this Agreement (the funded portion of such Advance being hereinafter referred to as a “Non Pro Rata Loan”) or any Lender otherwise becomes a Defaulting Lender, until the earlier of such Lender’s cure of such failure and the termination of the Commitments, the proceeds of all amounts thereafter repaid to the Global Administrative Agent by any Borrower and otherwise required to be applied to such Lender’s share of all other Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be advanced to the applicable Borrower by the Global Administrative Agent (“Cure Loans”) on behalf of such Lender to cure, in full or in part, such failure by such Lender, but shall nevertheless be deemed to have been paid to such Lender in satisfaction of such other Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:
(i)     the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.2 shall apply only with respect to the proceeds of payments of Obligations and shall not affect the conversion or continuation of Loans pursuant to Section 2.8;
(ii)     any Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have cured its failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Syndicated Global Advance at such time as an amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s original Pro Rata Share of the requested principal portion of such Advance is fully funded to the applicable Borrower, whether made by such Defaulting Lender itself or by operation of the terms of this Section 8.2, and whether or not the Non Pro Rata Loan with respect thereto has been repaid, converted or continued;
(iii)     amounts advanced to any Borrower to cure, in full or in part, any such Defaulting Lender’s failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Syndicated Global Advance shall bear interest at the rate applicable to Syndicated Global Loans which are Base Rate Loans, in effect from time to time, and for all other purposes of this Agreement shall be treated as if they were Base Rate Loans;
(iv)     regardless of whether or not a Default has occurred or is continuing, and notwithstanding the instructions of any Borrower as to its desired application, all repayments of principal which, in accordance with the other terms of this Agreement, would be applied to the

50



outstanding Base Rate Loans shall be applied first, ratably to all Base Rate Loans constituting Non Pro Rata Loans, second, ratably to Base Rate Loans other than those constituting Non Pro Rata Loans or Cure Loans and, third, ratably to Base Rate Loans constituting Cure Loans;
(v)     for so long as and until the earlier of any such Defaulting Lender’s cure of all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender and the termination of the Commitments, the term “Required Lenders” for purposes of this Agreement shall mean Lenders (excluding all Defaulting Lenders) whose Pro Rata Shares represent greater than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate Pro Rata Shares of such Lenders; and
(vi)     for so long as and until any such Defaulting Lender’s cure of all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to any fees, and no fees shall accrue, with respect to its Commitment.
8.3     Amendments. Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, the Required Lenders (or the Global Administrative Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and the Borrowers may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the Borrowers hereunder or waiving any Default hereunder; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby:
(i)     postpone or extend the Termination Date, the Maturity Date (except as permitted under Section 2.19) or any other date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender (except with respect to a waiver of the application of the default rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof) or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment of such Lender;
(ii)     reduce the principal amount of any Loans, or reduce the rate or amount of or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon or other amounts payable hereunder (except with respect to a waiver of the application of the default rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof);
(iii)     reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders or any other provision hereof specifying the percentage or number of Lenders to be the applicable percentage or number in this Agreement to act on specified matters or amend the definitions of “Required Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share”;
(iv)     increase the amount of the Commitment of any Syndicated Global Lender or increase any Lender’s Pro Rata Share;
(v)     permit any Borrower to assign its rights under this Agreement;
(vi)     notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Support Agreement, release Harley from any of its obligations under the Support Agreement or otherwise terminate the Support Agreement;
(vii)     release the Guarantor other than in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents;

51



(viii)     alter the manner in which payments or prepayments of principal, interest or other amounts under the Loan Documents shall be applied as among the Lenders; or
(ix)     amend this Section 8.3.
No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Global Administrative Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the Global Administrative Agent. The Global Administrative Agent may waive payment of the fee required under Section 13.3(B) without obtaining the consent of any of the Lenders or Borrowers.
If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “the Lenders”, “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then Harley may (at its sole cost and expense) elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to Harley and the Global Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an assignment and assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 13.3(A), and with Harley or such replacement Lender paying the $3,500 processing fee required in Section 13.3(B) and (ii) Harley shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all principal, interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by any Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5, and (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 3.4 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, as to any amendment or amendment and restatement otherwise approved in accordance with this Section, it shall not be necessary to obtain the consent or approval of any Lender that, upon giving effect to such amendment or amendment and restatement, would have no Commitment or outstanding Loans so long as such Lender receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by, and all other amounts owing to, such Lender or accrued for the account of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents at the time such amendment, amendment and restatement or other modification becomes effective.
8.4     Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Loan notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of any Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Loan shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.3, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded

52



shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Global Administrative Agent and the Lenders until the Obligations have been paid in full.
ARTICLE IX     GENERAL PROVISIONS
9.1     Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the relevant Companies contained in this Agreement shall survive delivery of any Notes and the making of the Loans herein contemplated.

9.5     Several Obligations; Benefits of this Agreement. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and no Lender shall be the partner or agent of any other. The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns.
9.6     Expenses; Indemnification.
(A)     Expenses. The Borrowers shall reimburse the Global Administrative Agent and the Arrangers for any reasonable costs, internal charges and out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and time charges of attorneys and paralegals for each such Person, which attorneys and paralegals may be employees of such Persons) paid or incurred by such Persons in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, syndication, distribution (including via the internet), review, amendment, modification, and administration of the Loan Documents. The Borrowers also agree to reimburse the Global Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any costs, internal charges and out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and time charges of attorneys and paralegals for each such Person, which attorneys and paralegals may be employees of such Persons) paid or incurred by each such Person in connection with the collection of the Obligations and enforcement of the Loan Documents; provided that the Borrowers shall not be obligated to so reimburse for more than one primary law firm (and, in addition to such primary law firm, one local counsel engaged in each relevant jurisdiction by such primary law firm) as counsel for the Global Administrative Agent and more than one primary law firm (and, in addition to such primary law firm, one local counsel engaged in each relevant jurisdiction by such primary law firm) as counsel for the Lenders in connection with such collection or enforcement.

53



(B)     Indemnity. Each of the Borrowers further agrees to defend, protect, indemnify, and hold harmless the Global Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, each and all of the Lenders, and each of their respective Affiliates, and each of such Person’s respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article IV) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not such Indemnitees shall be designated a party thereto), imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Indemnitees in any manner relating to or arising out of:
(i)     this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, the making of the Loans hereunder, the management of such Loans or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans; or
(ii)     any liabilities, obligations, responsibilities, losses, damages, personal injury, death, punitive damages, economic damages, consequential damages, treble damages, intentional, willful or wanton injury, damage or threat to the environment, natural resources or public health or welfare, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorney, expert and consulting fees and costs of investigation, feasibility or remedial action studies), fines, penalties and monetary sanctions, interest, direct or indirect, known or unknown, absolute or contingent, past, present or future relating to violation of any Environmental Law arising from or in connection with the past, present or future operations of the Companies, their Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors in interest, or, the past, present or future environmental, health or safety condition of any respective Property of the Companies or their Subsidiaries, the presence of asbestos‑containing materials at any respective Property of the Companies or their Subsidiaries or the Release or threatened Release of any contaminant into the environment (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”);
provided, however, no Borrower shall have any obligation to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect to Indemnified Matters to the extent caused solely by or resulting solely from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee or such Indemnitee’s material breach of its obligations under this Agreement, in each case as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrowers shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.
(C)     Waiver of Certain Claims; Settlement of Claims. Each of the Companies further agrees to assert no claim against any of the Indemnitees on any theory of liability for consequential, special, indirect, exemplary or punitive damages. No settlement shall be entered into by any Company or any of their Subsidiaries with respect to any claim, litigation, arbitration or other proceeding relating to or arising out of the transaction evidenced by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (whether or not the Global Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Indemnitee is a party thereto) unless such settlement releases all Indemnitees from any and all liability with respect thereto.
(D)     Survival of Agreements. The obligations and agreements of the Companies under this Section 9.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Any demand for payment pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth such amounts due in reasonable detail.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, except for the purpose of preparing financial statements in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles, the determination of whether a lease constitutes a capital or finance lease, on the one hand, or an operating lease, on the other hand, and whether obligations arising under a lease are required to be capitalized on the balance sheet of the lessee thereunder and/or recognized as interest expense, shall be determined by reference to Agreement Accounting Principles as in effect on the Closing Date without giving effect to the phase-in of the effectiveness of any amendments to Agreement Accounting Principles that have been adopted as of the Closing Date.

Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.
9.10     Nonliability of Lenders. The relationship among the Companies and the Lenders and the Global Administrative Agent shall be solely that of borrower or guarantor and lender. Neither the Global Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to any of the Companies.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

10.1     Appointment; Nature of Relationship. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. is appointed by the Lenders (each reference in this Article X to a Lender being in its capacity as a Lender) as the Global Administrative Agent hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Global Administrative Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Global Administrative Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article X. Notwithstanding the

In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual representative, the Global Administrative Agent (i) does not assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders, and (ii) is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders agrees to assert no claim against the Global Administrative Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each Lender waives.
10.2     Powers. The Global Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Global Administrative Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Global Administrative Agent shall have no implied duties or fiduciary duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents required to be taken by the Global Administrative Agent.

Neither the Global Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any of the Borrowers or Lenders for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such action or inaction is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen solely from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person or (ii) breach of contract by such Person with respect to the Loan Documents.
10.4     No Responsibility for Loans, Creditworthiness, Recitals, Etc. Neither the Global Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article IV (other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Global Administrative Agent on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 4.1); (iv) the existence or possible existence of any Default or (v) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any

other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith.

The Global Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
10.6     Employment of the Global Administrative Agent and Counsel. The Global Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees, agents, affiliates and attorneys-in-fact, and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

10.8     The Global Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Global Administrative Agent ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares (determined at the time such indemnity is sought) (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by any Borrower for which the Global Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement or indemnification by any Borrower under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Global Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, distribution (including via the internet) and enforcement of the Loan Documents, including as a result of a dispute among the Lenders or between any Lender and the Global Administrative Agent,

59



and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Global Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms thereof or of any such other documents, including as a result of a dispute among the Lenders or between any Lender and the Global Administrative Agent; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Global Administrative Agent.
10.9     Rights as a Lender. With respect to its Commitment, Loans made by it and any Notes issued to it, the Global Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Global Administrative Agent, as applicable, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders”, as applicable, shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Global Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Global Administrative Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with Harley, any Company or any of their Subsidiaries in which such Person is not prohibited hereby from engaging with any other Person.
10.10     Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Global Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrowers and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Global Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
10.11     Successor Global Administrative Agent. The Global Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Lenders, a successor Global Administrative Agent. If no successor Global Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty days after the retiring Global Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Global Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Lenders, a successor Global Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, each such successor Global Administrative Agent shall be subject to approval by Harley, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such successor Global Administrative Agent shall be a commercial bank (including a branch thereof) having capital and retained earnings of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Global Administrative Agent

hereunder by a successor Global Administrative Agent, such successor Global Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Global Administrative Agent, and the retiring Global Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Global Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Global Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Global Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
10.12     Co-Agents, Documentation Agent, Syndication Agent, etc. None of the Lenders, if any, identified in this Agreement as a “co-agent”, “documentation agent” or “syndication agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to such Lenders as it makes with respect to the Global Administrative Agent in Section 10.10.
ARTICLE XI     SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS
11.1     Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Default occurs and is continuing, any indebtedness from any Lender to any Company (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available, but excluding deposits held in a trustee, fiduciary, agency or similar capacity or otherwise for the benefit of a third party) may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender and the other Obligations, whether or not the Obligations, or any part hereof, shall then be due. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Global Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided further that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such offset and application under this Section 11.1.
11.2     Ratable Payments. If any Syndicated Global Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Syndicated Global Loans (other than payments received pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Syndicated Global Lender, such Syndicated Global Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Syndicated Global Loans held by the other Syndicated Global Lenders so that after such purchase each Syndicated Global Lender will hold its ratable proportion of Syndicated Global Loans. If any Syndicated Global Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Obligations or such amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Syndicated Global Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Syndicated Global Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to their Syndicated Global Loans. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.
ARTICLE XII     GUARANTEE

61



In order to induce the Lenders to extend credit hereunder, but subject to the provisions of the final paragraph of this Article XII, the Guarantor fully and unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the Obligations (including, without limitation, interest accruing hereunder after the commencement of any case under the Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy-related rules or legislation in any country in which a Company is organized, whether or not allowed as a claim in such case). The obligations of the Guarantor under this Article XII are sometimes referred to as the “Guarantee”. The Guarantor further agrees that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its Guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any Obligation.
The Guarantor waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Borrower of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by the failure of any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise, or, except as specifically provided therein, by any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any other agreement.
The Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee hereunder constitutes a promise of payment when due and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Lender in favor of any Borrower or any other person.
The Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Guarantee shall be unconditional, irrespective of:
(i)     the validity, enforceability, avoidance, novation or subordination of any of the Obligations or any of the Loan Documents;
(ii)     the absence of any attempt by, or on behalf of, any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent to collect, or to take any other action to enforce, all or any part of the Obligations whether from or against any Borrower, any other guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person;
(iii)     the election of any remedy by, or on behalf of, any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent with respect to all or any part of the Obligations;
(iv)     the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by, or on behalf of, any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent with respect to any provision of any of the Loan Documents;
(v)     the failure of the Global Administrative Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations;
(vi)     the election by, or on behalf of, any one or more of the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent in any proceeding instituted under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C. 101 et seq.) (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or other bankruptcy-related rules or legislation in any country in which a Company is organized, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code;

62



(vii)     any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any Company, as debtor‑in‑possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy-related rules or regulations in any country in which a Borrower is organized;
(viii)     the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy-related rules or regulations in any country in which a Company is organized, of all or any portion of the claims of any of the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent for repayment of all or any part of the Obligations; or
(ix)     any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of any Borrower or the Guarantor.
The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of the Obligations or otherwise. The Lenders, either themselves or acting through the Global Administrative Agent, are authorized, without notice or demand and without affecting the liability of the Guarantor hereunder, from time to time, (a) to renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to, all or any part of the Obligations, or to otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (b) to accept partial payments on all or any part of the Obligations; (c) to take and hold security or collateral for the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, this Guarantee, or any other guaranties of all or any part of the Obligations, (d) to exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security or collateral; (e) to apply such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as in their discretion they may determine; (f) to settle, release, exchange, enforce, waive, compromise or collect or otherwise liquidate all or any part of the Obligations, this Guarantee, any other guaranty of all or any part of the Obligations, and any security or collateral for the Obligations or for any such guaranty.
The Guarantor consents and agrees that none of the Lenders nor the Global Administrative Agent nor any Person acting for or on behalf of the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent shall be under any obligation to marshall any assets in favor of the Guarantor or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. The Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent that any Borrower or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations makes a payment or payments to any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent, or any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent receives any proceeds of collateral for all or any part of the Obligations, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to any Borrower, the Guarantor, such other guarantor or any other Person, or their respective estates, trustees, receivers or any other party, under any bankruptcy law, state, provincial or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the part of the Obligations which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the time immediately preceding such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction.
In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender may have at law or in equity against the Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Borrower to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, the Guarantor promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Global Administrative Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, the amount of such unpaid Obligations. The Guarantor further agrees that if payment in respect of any of the Obligations owed to any Lender shall be due at a place of payment other than as designated in

63



this Agreement and if, by reason of any Change in Law (as defined in Section 3.1), war or civil disturbance or other event, such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the judgment of such Lender, not consistent with the protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of such Lender, the Guarantor shall make payment of such Obligation in the applicable place designated in this Agreement, and shall indemnify such Lender against any losses or expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment.
Until the Obligations have been paid in full in cash and the Maturity Date shall have occurred, the Guarantor (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to such Obligations and (ii) waive any right to enforce any remedy which the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent (or any of them) now have or may hereafter have against any Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations or any other Person, and the Guarantor waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Lenders and the Global Administrative Agent (or any of them) to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent (or any of them).
This Guarantee shall continue in full force and effect and may not be terminated or otherwise revoked until the Obligations shall have been fully paid (in cash) and discharged and this Agreement and all financing arrangements between any Borrower, the Global Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement shall have been terminated; provided that if the Guarantor is merged or consolidated with another Company pursuant to Section 6.2.3 or if the capital stock of the Guarantor is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (as in effect on the Closing Date), the Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under this Agreement without further action. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantor shall have any right under applicable law to terminate or revoke this Guarantee, the Guarantor agrees that such termination or revocation shall not be effective until a written notice of such revocation or termination, specifically referring hereto, signed by the Guarantor, is actually received by the Global Administrative Agent. Such notice shall not affect the right and power of any of the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent to enforce rights arising prior to receipt thereof by the Global Administrative Agent. If any Lender grants loans or takes other action after the Guarantor terminates or revokes this Guarantee but before the Global Administrative Agent receives such written notice, the rights of such Lender with respect thereto shall be the same as if such termination or revocation had not occurred. The provisions of this Article XII shall remain in full force and effect, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, until the Obligations shall have been fully paid (in cash) and discharged.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article XII to the contrary, (i) the obligations of the Finco Guarantor under this Article XII shall be solely in respect of the Loans made to, and any other Obligations of, HDFS and (ii) the Guarantor shall not have any obligations under this Article XII in respect of the Loans made to, or any other Obligations of, Harley.
ARTICLE XIII     BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS
13.1     Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Companies, the Lenders and the Global Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns, except that (i) the Companies shall not have the right to assign their rights or obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3 hereof. Notwithstanding clause (ii) of this Section 13.1, any Lender may at any time, without the consent of any Borrower or the Global Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Notes to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority with authority over such Lender; provided, however, that no such

64



assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder. The Global Administrative Agent may treat any Lender as the owner of the Loans for all purposes hereof unless and until such Lender complies with Section 13.3 hereof in the case of an assignment thereof or, in the case of any other transfer, a written notice of the transfer is filed with the Global Administrative Agent. Any such assignee or transferee agrees by acceptance thereof to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of any Loan, shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such Loan.
13.2     Participations.Permitted Participants; Effect. Subject to the terms set forth in this Section 13.2, any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) which is not an Ineligible Institution participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender or any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of all Loans for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by any Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and such Borrower and the Global Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents except that, for purposes of Article III hereof, the Participants shall be entitled to the same rights as if they were Lenders (subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in Article III, including the requirements under Section 3.5(iv) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.5(iv) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.3; provided however that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Article III than the Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights participated. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Companies, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant's interest in the obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in the obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such interest is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Global Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Global Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(A)     Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which involves an amendment, modification or waiver with respect to a matter which, if such Participant were a Lender hereunder, would require the consent of such Lender under clauses (i) through (viii) of Section 8.3 hereof.

65



(B)     Benefit of Setoff. The Companies agree that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 hereof in respect to its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents; provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 hereof with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant except to the extent such Participant exercises its right of set off. The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 hereof, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 11.2 as if each Participant were a Lender.
13.3     Assignments.
(A)     Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities (“Purchasers”) which is not an Ineligible Institution all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment and all Loans owing to it) in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.3. Each assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, ratable percentage of all of the rights and obligations of any assigning Lender under this Agreement. Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto and shall not be permitted hereunder unless such assignment is either for all of such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents or, except for assignments to another Lender, an Affiliate thereof or an Approved Fund, involves loans and commitments in an aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000. Notice to the Global Administrative Agent shall be required prior to any assignment becoming effective and the consent of the Global Administrative Agent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required prior to any assignment becoming effective with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender and the consent of Harley (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that Harley shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any assignment or purported assignment to an Ineligible Institution) unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Global Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received written notice thereof from the Global Administrative Agent) shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless (A) a Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time or (B) the Purchaser which is a Lender, an Affiliate thereof or an Approved Fund; provided that, notwithstanding the preceding clause (B), (1) the Purchaser with respect to any assignment that does not require Harley’s consent under the preceding clause (B) shall nevertheless provide written notice to Harley thereof prior to, or promptly after, such assignment and (2) the consent of Harley shall be required prior to any assignment resulting in the applicable Purchaser, collectively with its Affiliates and affiliated Approved Funds, holding Commitments in an aggregate amount greater than 15% of the Aggregate Commitment at such time (or, if the Commitments shall have been terminated, such Purchaser, collectively with its Affiliates and affiliated Approved Funds, would hold Loans aggregating to more than 15% in principal amount of all outstanding Loans at such time). It is understood and agreed that it shall be reasonable for Harley to consider a proposed Purchaser’s right to require reimbursement for incremental increased costs pursuant to Article III when determining whether to consent to any applicable assignment.
(B)     Effect; Effective Date. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (C) below, upon (i) delivery to the Global Administrative Agent of a notice of assignment, substantially in the form attached as Appendix I to Exhibit C hereto (a “Notice of Assignment”), together with any consents required by Section 13.3(A) hereof, and (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Global Administrative Agent for processing such assignment, such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such Notice of Assignment. The Notice of Assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Commitment and Loans under the

66



applicable assignment agreement are “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser, if not already a Lender, shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents executed by the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no consent or action by any of the Borrowers or the Lenders and no further consent or action by the Global Administrative Agent shall be required to release the transferor Lender with respect to the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and Loans assigned to such Purchaser. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 13.3(B), the transferor Lender, the Global Administrative Agent and Harley shall, if requested by such transferor Lender or Purchaser, make appropriate arrangements so that replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser.
(C)     The Register. The Global Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 14.1 a copy of each assignment delivered to and accepted by it pursuant to this Section 13.3 and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time and whether such Lender is an original Lender or the assignee of another Lender pursuant to an assignment under this Section 13.3. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, the Global Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(D)     Disqualified Institutions.
(i)    No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or grant a participation in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless Harley has consented to such assignment or participation in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Purchaser or Participant that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Institution”), (x) such Purchaser or Participant shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender or Participant and (y) the execution by Harley of an assignment agreement with respect to such Purchaser will not by itself result in such Purchaser no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment or participation in violation of this clause (D)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (D) shall apply.
(ii)    If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Institution without Harley’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, Harley may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and the Global Administrative Agent, require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 13.3), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible Institution) at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights and

67



obligations in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder.
(iii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Institutions to whom an assignment or participation is made in violation of clause (i) above (A) will not have the right to (x) receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by Harley, the Global Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders (or any of them) and the Global Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Global Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter.
(iv)    The Global Administrative Agent shall have the right, and Harley hereby expressly authorizes the Global Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by Harley and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak, ClearPar or a substantially similar Electronic System, including that portion of such platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender requesting the same. The DQ List shall be subject to the requirements of Section 13.4.
(v)    The Global Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Global Administrative Agent shall not ‎(x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified ‎Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, by any other Person to any ‎Disqualified Institution.
(E)     EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.3, or elsewhere in this Agreement, the consent of Harley shall be required (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) for an assignment to an assignee that is an EEA Financial Institution unless a Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such assignment.
13.4     Confidentiality. (i) Subject to Section 13.5, the Global Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall hold confidential (A) all nonpublic information obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement and (B) except as otherwise permitted by Harley, all information related to the Licensed Marks (as defined in Section 13.6)) and all other information which a reasonable person would deem to be confidential and/or proprietary in light of the nature of the information and the manner in which it was disclosed; provided that the Global Administrative Agent and the Lenders may each make disclosure (1) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential and the Global Administrative Agent and each Lender, as applicable, shall be responsible for breach by its respective affiliated Persons to which the Global

68



Administrative Agent or such Lender made such disclosure), (2) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (3) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (4) to any other party to this Agreement, (5) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (6) subject to a written agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (a) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (it being understood that the DQ List may be disclosed to any assignee or Participant, or prospective assignee or Participant, in reliance on and subject to the terms of this clause (6)) or (b) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations, (7) with the prior written consent of Harley, (8) to the extent such information (a) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (b) becomes available to the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Companies, (9) to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any such information relating to the Companies received by it from the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender or (10) on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans. In no event shall the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by Harley, the Companies or any of their Subsidiaries; provided, however, each prospective Transferee shall be required to agree that if it does not become a participant or assignee it shall return all materials furnished to it by or on behalf of Harley or any Company in connection with this Agreement.
(ii)(A) To the extent that the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, Title V/Privacy (collectively with the related implementing regulations, the “GLBA”), shall be applicable to the transactions contemplated herein, each of the parties hereto agrees that (1) it shall use all non-public personal information obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement solely for the purposes for which the information is disclosed or as otherwise permitted in conformance with the requirements of the GLBA and (2) it shall maintain the confidentiality of such information to the same extent as described in Section 13.4(i). This clause shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(B)    In the event that the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender reasonably believes that any physical and/or electronic safeguards have been breached, and that non-public personal information has been obtained by persons and/or entities without authority to use or view such non-public personal information, the Global Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, will notify HDFS and Harley, in writing, as soon as reasonably practicable. The Global Administrative Agent and each Lender shall also maintain commercially reasonable processes and procedures for the storage, retention, and disposal of documents and storage media containing nonpublic personal information. Nothing in this clause shall be construed to create any third-party beneficiary rights in any consumer or other holder of nonpublic personal information. This clause shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(iii)Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that any breach of the aforesaid confidentiality obligations in this Section 13.4 is likely to cause or threaten irreparable harm to HDFS and Harley. Therefore, HDFS and Harley shall be entitled to seek equitable relief to protect its interests, including but not limited

69



to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, as well as monetary damages. Nothing stated herein will be construed to limit any other remedies available to the parties hereto. This section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
13.5     Dissemination of Information. Each of the Companies authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Companies and their Subsidiaries; provided that prior to any such disclosure, such prospective Transferee shall agree in writing to preserve in accordance with Section 13.4 the confidentiality of any non-public information described therein.
13.6     Non-Use of HDFS’ Licensed Marks. (i) HDFS, Harley and their affiliates have the right pursuant to licenses or otherwise to use certain trademark(s), logo(s), etc. relating to Harley-Davidson Motorcycles, HDFS and their affiliates (the “Licensed Marks”). Except as permitted by the following sentences, none of the Global Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their Affiliates are authorized to use such Licensed Marks or Harley’s or HDFS’s (i) text name and logo(s) (together) and/or (ii) logo(s) on forms, in legal documents, in advertising, marketing materials, in press releases or any other document or material. In the event the Global Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates wish to use said Licensed Marks, such Person must obtain HDFS’s and Harley’s prior written approval, which said approval is at HDFS’s and Harley’s sole and absolute discretion and subject to subsequent periodic review of such use and to such reasonable specifications of HDFS and Harley to the extent such specifications are directly related to the legal maintenance, whether such is before or after lapse or termination of this Agreement. The Harley-Davidson and/or HDFS (i) text name, logo(s) and registered trademark(s) (together) and/or (ii) logo(s) and/or (iii) registered trademark(s) are not to be used by the Global Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates in any way before, during or after the term of this Agreement, unless prior written consent is obtained from HDFS and Harley. This section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(ii)    Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that any breach of the aforestated non-use obligations in this Section 13.6 is likely to cause or threaten irreparable harm to HDFS and Harley.

Unless the Global Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

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 Party in connection with the Communications or any Electronic System. In no event shall the Global Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, and each of such Person’s respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents (collectively, the “Agent Parties”), have any liability to any Company, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Company’s or the Global Administrative Agent’s transmission of Communications through an Electronic System, except to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Global Administrative Agent or the Agent Parties. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information,

71



document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Company pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Electronic System.

SCHEDULE II
INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION TERMS
(i) The Borrowers agree that any and all claims of the Borrowers against any Guarantor with respect to any “Guarantor Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, or against any of its properties shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Obligations; provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing the Borrowers may make loans to and receive payments in the ordinary course with respect to such Guarantor Intercompany Indebtedness from any Guarantor to the extent permitted by the terms of the Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any right of the Borrowers to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any Guarantor, all rights, liens and security interests of the Borrowers, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any Guarantor shall be and are subordinated to the rights of the holders of the Obligations and the Global Administrative Agent in those assets. Except as otherwise permitted above, the Borrowers shall not have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and the Hedging Obligations owing to any Lender or any Affiliate thereof (such Hedging Obligations, the “Hedging Liabilities”) shall have been fully paid and satisfied (in cash) and all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrowers and the holders of the Obligations (or any affiliate thereof) have been terminated. If all or any part of the assets of any Guarantor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of such Guarantor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of such Guarantor is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness (excepting indebtedness for fees and other administrative charges, if any, as may from time to time accrue in the ordinary course of business) of any Guarantor to the Borrowers (“Guarantor Intercompany Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Global Administrative Agent for application on any of the Obligations and Hedging Liabilities, due or to become due, until such Obligations and Hedging Liabilities (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have first been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by the Borrowers upon or with respect to any Guarantor Intercompany Indebtedness after an Insolvency Event prior to the satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and Hedging Liabilities and the termination of all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrowers and the holders of the Obligations (and their affiliates), the Borrowers shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Obligations and such Hedging Liabilities and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Global Administrative Agent, for the benefit of such Persons, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the Borrowers where necessary), for application to any of the Obligations and such Hedging Liabilities, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be


4848-5135-1111.2




held in trust by the Borrowers as the property of the holders of the Obligations and such Hedging Liabilities. If the Borrowers fail to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Global Administrative Agent, the Global Administrative Agent or any of its officers or employees are irrevocably authorized to make the same. The Borrowers agree that until the Obligations (other than the contingent indemnity obligations) and such Hedging Liabilities have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied and all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrowers and the holders of the Obligations (and their affiliates) have been terminated, the Borrowers will not assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Global Administrative Agent) any claim the Borrowers have or may have against any Guarantor.
(ii) Each Guarantor agrees that any and all claims of such Guarantor against the Borrowers with respect to any “Borrower Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, or against any of its properties shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Obligations; provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing each Guarantor may make loans to and receive payments in the ordinary course with respect to such Borrower Intercompany Indebtedness from the Borrowers to the extent permitted by the terms of the Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any right of any Guarantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from the Borrowers, all rights, liens and security interests of such Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of the Borrowers shall be and are subordinated to the rights of the holders of the Obligations and the Global Administrative Agent in those assets. Except as otherwise permitted above, no Guarantor shall have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and the Hedging Liabilities shall have been fully paid and satisfied (in cash) and all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrowers and the holders of Obligations (or any affiliate thereof) have been terminated. If all or any part of the assets of the Borrowers, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of the Borrowers, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of any of the Borrowers is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of any of the Borrowers are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness (excepting indebtedness for fees and other administrative charges, if any, as may from time to time accrue in the ordinary course of business) of the Borrowers to any Guarantor (“Borrower Intercompany Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Global Administrative Agent for application on any of the Obligations and Hedging Liabilities, due or to become due, until such Obligations and Hedging Liabilities (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have first been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by any Guarantor upon or with respect to any Borrower Intercompany Indebtedness after an Insolvency Event prior to the satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and Hedging Liabilities and the termination of all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrowers and the holders of the Obligations (and their affiliates),


4848-5135-1111.2




the applicable Guarantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Obligations and such Hedging Liabilities and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Global Administrative Agent, for the benefit of such Persons, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of such Guarantor where necessary), for application to any of the Obligations and such Hedging Liabilities, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by such Guarantor as the property of the holders of the Obligations and such Hedging Liabilities. If any Guarantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Global Administrative Agent, the Global Administrative Agent or any of its officers or employees are irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Guarantor agrees that until the Obligations (other than the contingent indemnity obligations) and such Hedging Liabilities have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied and all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrowers and the holders of the Obligations (and their affiliates) have been terminated, such Guarantor will not assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Global Administrative Agent) any claim such Guarantor has or may have against the Borrowers.
