This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parent Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties and their respective successors and assigns permitted by the Credit Agreement; provided that the Parent Guarantor may not assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, except as permitted hereby or by the Credit Agreement.

5.6    Set-Off. The Parent Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and each other Guaranteed Party at any time and from time to time without notice to the Parent Guarantor or the Parent Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Parent Guarantor and the Parent Borrower, as applicable, to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 9.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, so long as any amount remains unpaid after it becomes due and payable by the Parent Guarantor hereunder, to set off and appropriate and apply against any such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent or such other Guaranteed Party to or for the credit or the account of the Parent Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Administrative Agent or such other Guaranteed Party may elect. The Administrative Agent and each other Guaranteed Party shall notify the Parent Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Administrative Agent or such other Guaranteed Party of the proceeds thereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each other Guaranteed Party under this Section 5.6 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that the Administrative Agent or such other Guaranteed Party may have.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or electronic transmission (e.g., “pdf’ or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution”, “execute”, “signed”, “signature”, and words of like import in or related to this Agreement or any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by us, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

5.8    Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such

prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(d)    agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

5.15    Releases. At such earlier time as (i) the Loans, the Reimbursement Amounts and the other Borrower Obligations (other than any Borrower Obligations owing to a Non-Lender Guaranteed Party) then due and owing shall have been paid in full, the Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding (except for any Letter of Credit that has been cash collateralized, or otherwise provided for in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender) or (ii) each of the Parent Guarantor’s First Lien Notes Guarantee and the Exchangeable Notes Guarantee are released and terminated for any reason, in either case, this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Guarantor hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party.

5.16    Judgment. (a) If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in one currency into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b)    The obligations of the Parent Guarantor in respect of this Agreement to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “judgment currency”) other than the currency in which the sum originally due to such Guaranteed Party is denominated (the “original currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the judgment currency, the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase the original currency with the judgment currency; if the amount of the original currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such holder in the original currency, the Parent Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Guaranteed Party against such loss, and if the amount of the original currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent agrees to remit to the Parent Borrower such excess. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Borrower Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered as of the date first above written.
