“Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended (or amended and restated), modified or supplemented with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to cure any ambiguity,

omission, defect or inconsistency, so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender or the Issuing Lender, (b) to add one or more additional credit facilities with respect to Incremental Term Loans to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans, as applicable, and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof, (c) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Majority Facility Lenders; provided, that the conditions set forth in Section 2.4 are satisfied, and (d) to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding under any Incremental Equivalent Debt or Replacement Facility permitted to be incurred hereunder to share ratably in the benefits of Section 4.2 with the Term Loans to the extent applicable taking into account the obligors and scope and lien priority of the collateral securing such Replacement Facility as compared to the Term Loans as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower.”

(u)    That portion of clause (i) of Section 11.14(a) of the Credit Agreement preceding the proviso is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document (including, without limitation, the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor for its obligations if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary, or ceases or will cease to be a Subsidiary who is required to be a Guarantor, as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder, including a transaction permitted pursuant to Section 8.7(u)), that is otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 11.1;”

Other Amendments to Credit Agreement. Each Lender agrees to amend Section 11.6 of the Credit Agreement by adding a new clause (l) to read as follows:

“Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including Sections 11.2 and 11.6 hereof) or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, on or after the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, the Borrower may assign all or a portion of the outstanding Term A Loans and its Obligations related thereto (any such assigned Term A Loans and related Obligations, the “Foreign Obligations”) to a wholly-owned direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Borrower”), subject to receipt of customary legal opinions, organizational documents, resolutions and other appropriate corporate documentation as Administrative Agent may reasonably request, and subject to satisfaction of applicable “know your customer” requirements as reasonably requested by the applicable Term A Lenders. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended (or amended and restated), modified or supplemented with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to permit or effect such assignment and to make certain other related changes as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable in connection therewith. The Administrative Agent
