If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at:

 

-15-


(i) in the case of such Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate applicable at the time to Pro Rata Advances comprising such Pro Rata Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent, in respect of such amount, and

(ii) in the case of such Lender, the higher of (A) the NYFRB Rate and (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Advance as part of such Pro Rata Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

(e) Independent Lender Obligations. The failure of any Lender to make the Pro Rata Advance to be made by it as part of any Pro Rata Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Pro Rata Advance on the date of such Pro Rata Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Pro Rata Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Pro Rata Borrowing.

SECTION 2.03 Repayment of Pro Rata Advances. Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender on the Maturity Date the unpaid principal amount of the Pro Rata Advances of such Lender then outstanding.

SECTION 2.04 Interest on Pro Rata Advances.

(a) Scheduled Interest. Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Pro Rata Advance owing by such Borrower to each Lender from the date of such Pro Rata Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Pro Rata Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (B) the Applicable Interest Rate Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full and on the Maturity Date.

(ii) LIBO Rate Advances. During such periods as such Pro Rata Advance is a LIBO Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Pro Rata Advance to the sum of (A) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period for such Pro Rata Advance plus (B) the Applicable Interest Rate Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period, and on the date such LIBO Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full and on the Maturity Date.

(b) Default Interest. If any principal of or interest on any Pro Rata Advance or any fee or other amount payable by a Borrower hereunder (other than principal of or interest on any Competitive Bid Advance) is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in Section 2.04(a)(i) or Section 2.04(a)(ii), as applicable, at a rate per annum equal at all times to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Pro Rata Advance, 1% per annum above the rate per annum otherwise required to be paid on such Pro Rata Advance as provided in Section 2.04(a) or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 1% per annum plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Advances as provided in Section 2.04(a)(i).

SECTION 2.05 Additional Interest on LIBO Rate Advances. Each Borrower shall pay to each Lender, so long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBO Rate Advance of such Lender to such Borrower, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (a) the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period then applicable to such Advance from (b) the rate obtained by

 

-16-


dividing such LIBO Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Advance. Such additional interest shall be determined by such Lender and notified to Mondelēz International through the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.06 Conversion of Pro Rata Advances.

(a) Conversion upon Absence of Interest Period. If any Borrower (or Mondelēz International on behalf of any other Borrower) shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any LIBO Rate Advance in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of the term “Interest Period” or to give notice of a voluntary Conversion under Section 2.06(c), the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify such Borrower and the Lenders and such Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, but subject to the provisions of 2.06(b), 2.08 and 2.13, Convert into a Base Rate Advance.

(b) Conversion upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may elect that (i) unless repaid, each LIBO Rate Advance be, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Converted into Base Rate Advances and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into LIBO Rate Advances be suspended.

(c) Voluntary Conversion. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.06(b), 2.08 and 2.13, any Borrower may Convert, on any Business Day, all of its Pro Rata Advances of one Type constituting the same Pro Rata Borrowing into Advances of the other Type or, in the case of Advances that are LIBO Rate Advances, into Advances of the same Type for a new Interest Period, in each case upon notice give by the applicable Borrower (or Mondelēz International on its behalf) to the Administrative Agent by the time that a Notice of Pro Rata Borrowing would be required under Section 2.02 if such Borrower were requesting a Pro Rata Borrowing of the Type resulting from such Conversion to be made on the effective date of such Conversion; provided, however, that a Conversion of a LIBO Rate Advance into a Base Rate Advance, or a Conversion of any LIBO Rate Advance into a Pro Rata Advance of the same Type for a new Interest Period, in each case may be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBO Rate Advance. Each such notice of a Conversion shall be in writing, signed by a duly authorized officer of the applicable Borrower (or of Mondelēz International, as applicable) and shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify:

(i) the date of such Conversion;

(ii) the Pro Rata Advances to be Converted; and

(iii) if such Conversion is into LIBO Rate Advances, the duration of the Interest Period for each such Pro Rata Advance.

SECTION 2.07 The Competitive Bid Advances.

(a) Competitive Bid Advances’ Impact on Commitments. Each Lender severally agrees that any Borrower may make Competitive Bid Borrowings in Dollars under this Section 2.07 from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in the manner set forth below; provided that, following the making of each Competitive Bid Borrowing, the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders. As provided in Section 2.01(a), the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be deemed used from time to time to the extent of the aggregate amount of the Competitive Bid Advances then outstanding, and such deemed use of the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall be applied to the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments; provided, however, that any Lender’s Competitive Bid Advances shall not otherwise reduce that Lender’s obligation to lend its pro rata share of the remaining available Commitments.

 

-17-


(b) Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing. Any Borrower (or Mondelēz International on its behalf) may request a Competitive Bid Borrowing under this Section 2.07 by delivering to the Administrative Agent, by email or facsimile, a notice of a Competitive Bid Borrowing (a “Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing”), signed by a duly authorized officer of such Borrower (or of Mondelēz International, as applicable) and in substantially the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto, specifying therein the following:

(ii) the aggregate amount of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing;

(iii) the interest rate basis and day count convention to be offered by the Lenders;

(v) the interest payment date or dates relating thereto;

(vi) the location of such Borrower’s account to which funds are to be advanced; and

(vii) other terms (if any) to be applicable to such Competitive Bid Borrowing.

A Borrower requesting a Competitive Bid Borrowing shall deliver a Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) (x) at least two Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if such Borrower shall specify in the Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be Fixed Rate Bid Advances, or (y) at least four Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if such Borrower shall specify in the Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be Floating Rate Bid Advances. Each Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on such Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify each Lender of each request for a Competitive Bid Borrowing received by it from such Borrower by sending such Lender a copy of the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing.

(c) Discretion as to Competitive Bid Advances. Each Lender may, in its sole discretion, elect to irrevocably offer to make one or more Competitive Bid Advances to the applicable Borrower as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing at a rate or rates of interest specified by such Lender in its sole discretion, by notifying the Administrative Agent (which shall give prompt notice thereof to such Borrower), before 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) (A) on the Business Day prior to the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Fixed Rate Bid Advances, and (B) on the third Business Day prior to the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Floating Rate Bid Advances; provided that, if the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender shall, in its sole discretion, elect to make any such offer, it shall notify such Borrower of such offer at least 30 minutes before the time and on the date on which notice of such election is to be given by any other Lender to the Administrative Agent. In such notice, the Lender shall specify the following:

(i) the minimum amount and maximum amount of each Competitive Bid Advance which such Lender would be willing to make as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing (which amounts may, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.07(a), exceed such Lender’s Commitment);

(ii) the rate or rates of interest therefor; and

(iii) such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office with respect to such Competitive Bid Advance.

 

-18-


If any Lender shall elect not to make such an offer, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent before 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which notice of such election is to be given to the Administrative Agent by the other Lenders, and such Lender shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing; provided further that the failure by any Lender to give such notice shall not cause such Lender to be obligated to make any Competitive Bid Advance as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing.

(d) Selection of Lender Bids. The Borrower proposing the Competitive Bid Borrowing shall, in turn, (A) before 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Fixed Rate Bid Advances and (B) before 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Floating Rate Bid Advances, either:

(i) cancel such Competitive Bid Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent notice to that effect, or

(ii) accept, in its sole discretion, one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to Section 2.07(c), by giving notice to the Administrative Agent of the amount of each Competitive Bid Advance (which amount shall be equal to or greater than the minimum amount, and equal to or less than the maximum amount, notified to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender, for such Competitive Bid Advance pursuant to Section 2.07(c) to be made by each Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing) and reject any remaining offers made by Lenders pursuant to Section 2.07(c) by giving the Administrative Agent notice to that effect. Such Borrower shall accept the offers made by any Lender or Lenders to make Competitive Bid Advances in order of the lowest to the highest rates of interest offered by such Lenders. If two or more Lenders have offered the same interest rate, the amount to be borrowed at such interest rate will be allocated among such Lenders in proportion to the maximum amount that each such Lender offered at such interest rate.

If the Borrower proposing such Competitive Bid Borrowing notifies the Administrative Agent that such Competitive Bid Borrowing is canceled pursuant to Section 2.07(d)(i), or if such Borrower fails to give timely notice in accordance with this Section 2.07(d), the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders and such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall not be made.

(e) Competitive Bid Borrowing. If the Borrower proposing such Competitive Bid Borrowing accepts one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to Section 2.07(d)(ii), the Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify:

(i) each Lender that has made an offer as described in Section 2.07(c), whether or not any offer or offers made by such Lender pursuant to Section 2.07(c) have been accepted by such Borrower;

(ii) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, of the date and amount of each Competitive Bid Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing; and

(iii) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, upon receipt, that the Administrative Agent has received forms of documents appearing on their face to fulfill the applicable conditions set forth in Article III.

When each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing has received notice pursuant to Section 2.07(e)(iii), such Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), on the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing specified in the notice received from the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.07(e)(i), make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, in same day funds, such Lender’s portion of such Competitive Bid Borrowing. Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III and after receipt by the

 

-19-


Administrative Agent of such funds, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available in like funds to such Borrower at the location specified by such Borrower in its Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing. Promptly after each Competitive Bid Borrowing, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the amount of the Competitive Bid Borrowing, the consequent Competitive Bid Reduction and the dates upon which such Competitive Bid Reduction commenced and will terminate.

(f) Irrevocable Notice. If the Borrower proposing such Competitive Bid Borrowing notifies the Administrative Agent that it accepts one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to Section 2.07(c), such notice of acceptance shall be irrevocable and binding on such Borrower. Such Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing for such Competitive Bid Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Competitive Bid Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing when such Competitive Bid Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

(g) Amount of Competitive Bid Borrowings; Competitive Bid Notes. Each Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of no less than $50,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and, following the making of each Competitive Bid Borrowing, the aggregate principal amount of Advances then outstanding shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders. Within the limits and on the conditions set forth in this Section 2.07, any Borrower may from time to time borrow under this Section 2.07, prepay pursuant to Section 2.11 or repay pursuant to Section 2.07(h), and reborrow under this Section 2.07; provided that a Competitive Bid Borrowing shall not be made within two Business Days of the date of any other Competitive Bid Borrowing. The indebtedness of any Borrower resulting from each Competitive Bid Advance made to such Borrower as part of a Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be evidenced by a separate Competitive Bid Note of such Borrower payable to the Lender (or its registered assigns) making such Competitive Bid Advance.

(h) Repayment of Competitive Bid Advances. On the maturity date of each Competitive Bid Advance provided in the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance, the applicable Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender that has made a Competitive Bid Advance the then unpaid principal amount of such Competitive Bid Advance. No Borrower shall have any right to prepay any principal amount of any Competitive Bid Advance except on the terms set forth in the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance.

(i) Interest on Competitive Bid Advances. Each Borrower that has borrowed through a Competitive Bid Borrowing shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Bid Advance from the date of such Competitive Bid Advance to the date the principal amount of such Competitive Bid Advance is repaid in full, at the rate of interest for such Competitive Bid Advance and on the interest payment date or dates set forth in the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance. If any principal of or interest on any Competitive Bid Advance payable by a Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, payable in arrears on the date or dates interest is payable on such Competitive Bid Advance, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 1% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Competitive Bid Advance under the terms of the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance unless otherwise agreed in such Competitive Bid Note.

(j) Independent Lender Obligations. The failure of any Lender to make the Competitive Bid Advance to be made by it as part of any Competitive Bid Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Competitive Bid Advance on the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Competitive Bid Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Competitive Bid Borrowing.

SECTION 2.08 LIBO Rate Determination.

(a) Methods to Determine LIBO Rate. The Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) the LIBO Rate by using the methods described in the definition of the term “LIBO Rate,” and shall give prompt notice to Mondelēz International and the applicable other Borrowers and Lenders of each such LIBO Rate.

(b) Inability to Determine or Inadequate LIBO Rate. Subject, in each case, to clause (c) below, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Advance or a Floating Rate Bid Advance:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate (including because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis) for such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Floating Rate Bid Advance, the Lender that is required to make such Advance) that the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining the Advances included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof (which may be by telephone) to Mondelēz International and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies Mondelēz International and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) a request to Convert any affected Pro Rata Borrowing into a LIBO Rate Borrowing, or to Convert any affected LIBO Rate Borrowing into a LIBO Rate Borrowing for a new Interest Period, shall be ineffective, (B) unless repaid, any affected LIBO Rate Borrowing shall be Converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (C) any Notice of Pro Rata Borrowing for an affected LIBO Rate Borrowing shall be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Borrowing and (D) any Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing for affected Floating Rate Bid Advances shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all the Lenders, requests by the applicable Borrower for Floating Rate Bid Advances may be made to Lenders that are not affected thereby.

(c) LIBO Rate Successor. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in paragraph (b)(i) of this Section 2.08 have arisen (including because the applicable LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis) and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in paragraph (b)(i) of this Section 2.08 have not arisen but either (w) the supervisor for the administrator of the applicable LIBO Screen Rate has made a public statement that the administrator of such LIBO Screen Rate is insolvent (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of such LIBO Screen Rate), (x) the administrator of the applicable LIBO Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which such LIBO Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of such LIBO Screen Rate), (y) the supervisor for the administrator of the applicable LIBO Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which such LIBO Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published or (z) the supervisor for the administrator of the applicable LIBO Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the applicable LIBO Screen Rate may no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and Mondelēz International shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans denominated in Dollars at such time in the United States, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (it being understood that such amendment shall not reduce the Applicable Interest Rate Margin); provided that if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for all purposes of this Agreement. Such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date a copy of such amendment is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this Section 2.08(c) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii)(w), (ii)(x) or (ii)(y) of the first sentence of this Section 2.08(c), only to the extent the applicable LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) of Section 2.08(b) shall be applicable.

 

-21-


SECTION 2.09 Fees.

(a) Facility Fee. Mondelēz International agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, in Dollars, for the account of each Lender a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Facility Fee Rate, on the aggregate daily amount of the Commitment (without giving effect to any Competitive Bid Reduction) of such Lender (whether drawn or undrawn) from the Effective Date until the Maturity Date; provided that, if any Lender continues to have any Advances (other than Competitive Bid Advances) outstanding after its Commitment terminates, then the Facility Fee shall continue to accrue, at the Applicable Facility Fee Rate, on the daily amount of such Lender’s Advances (other than Competitive Bid Advances) outstanding from and including the date on which such Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any such Advances outstanding. Accrued Facility Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date and, with respect to the Commitments, on the Maturity Date; provided that any Facility Fees accruing on such Lender’s Advances outstanding after its Commitment terminates (other than as a result of Mondelēz International exercising its rights under Section 2.10(b)) shall be payable on demand. All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b) Term-Out Fee. Mondelēz International agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, on the Termination Date, a term-out fee (the “Term-Out Fee”) equal to 1.00% of the aggregate amount of such Lender’s outstanding Advances that are not repaid on such date.

(c) Other Fees. Mondelēz International shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the accounts of the Joint Lead Arrangers or Lenders, as applicable, such fees, and at such times, as shall have been separately agreed between Mondelēz International and the Administrative Agent or the Joint Lead Arrangers.

SECTION 2.10 Termination or Reduction of Commitments and Extension of Termination Date.

(a) Termination or Reduction of Commitments. Mondelēz International shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders; provided that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of no less than $50,000,000 or the remaining balance if less than $50,000,000; and provided further that the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the aggregate principal amount of the Competitive Bid Advances then outstanding. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Termination Date.

(b) Extension of Maturity Date. Mondelēz International may, by delivery of a written notice not less than 15 days prior to the Maturity Date to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to each Lender), elect to extend the Maturity Date to February 25, 2021 (the “Extended Maturity Date”); provided that any such extension of the Maturity Date shall be subject to the satisfaction, on and as of the Termination Date, of the conditions set forth in Section 3.05.

SECTION 2.11 Optional Prepayments of Pro Rata Advances. Each Borrower may (a) in the case of any LIBO Rate Advance, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed prepayment or (b) in the case of any Base Rate Advance, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date of the proposed prepayment, in each case stating the Pro Rata Borrowing to be prepaid and the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Pro Rata Advances comprising part of the same Pro Rata Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid;

 

-22-


provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of no less than $50,000,000 or the remaining balance if less than $50,000,000 and (ii) in the event of any such prepayment of a LIBO Rate Advance, such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b).

SECTION 2.12 Increased Costs.

(a) Costs from Change in Law or Authorities. If, due to either (i) the introduction after the date hereof of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements to the extent such change is included in the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage) in or in the interpretation, application or administration of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request promulgated after the date hereof from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining LIBO Rate Advances or Floating Rate Bid Advances (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.12 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.15 shall govern), (ii) taxes referred to in Section 2.15(a)(i), 2.15(a)(ii), 2.15(a)(iii), 2.15(a)(iv),2.15(a)(v) or 2.15(a)(vi) or (iii) any other taxes (other than taxes imposed on a Lender’s loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto)), then Mondelēz International shall within 20 Business Days after receipt by any Borrower of demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost; provided, however, that before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to Mondelēz International and the Administrative Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) Reduction in Lender’s Rate of Return. In the event that, after the date hereof, the implementation of or any change in any law or regulation, or any guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) or the interpretation, application or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof, imposes, modifies or deems applicable any capital adequacy, liquidity or similar requirement (including, without limitation, a request or requirement which affects the manner in which any Lender or its parent company allocates capital resources to its Commitments and its other obligations hereunder) and as a result thereof, in the sole opinion of such Lender, the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent company’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder is reduced to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s parent company with respect to capital adequacy, liquidity or similar requirements), then in each such case, upon demand from time to time Mondelēz International shall pay to such Lender, within 20 Business Days after receipt by Mondelēz International of demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender for such reduction in rate of return. A certificate of such Lender as to any such additional amount or amounts shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Except as provided below, in determining any such amount or amounts each Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender shall take all reasonable actions to avoid the imposition of, or reduce the amounts of, such increased costs, provided that such actions, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender will not be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender and, to the extent possible, each Lender will calculate such increased costs based upon the capital requirements for its Advances and unused Commitment hereunder and not upon the average or general capital requirements imposed upon such Lender.

(c) Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; Basel III. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or 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 or regulation after the date hereof regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

(d) Requests for Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the applicable Borrower or Mondelēz International of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.13 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make LIBO Rate Advances or Floating Rate Bid Advances or to fund or maintain LIBO Rate Advances or Floating Rate Bid Advances, (a) each LIBO Rate Advance or Floating Rate Bid Advance, as the case may be, of such Lender will automatically, upon such demand, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance or an Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.04(a)(i), as the case may be, and (b) the obligation of the Lenders to make LIBO Rate Advances or the applicable Floating Rate Bid Advances or to Convert Base Rate Advances into LIBO Rate Advances shall be suspended, in each case, until the Administrative Agent shall notify Mondelēz International and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, in each case, subject to Section 9.04(b) hereof; provided, however, that before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurocurrency Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make LIBO Rate Advances or Floating Rate Bid Advances or to continue to fund or maintain LIBO Rate Advances or Floating Rate Bid Advances, as the case may be, and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

SECTION 2.14 Payments and Computations.

(a) Time and Distribution of Payments. Mondelēz International and each other Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, without set-off or counterclaim, not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the day when due to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent Account in same day funds, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.15 and 9.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent will distribute, in like funds, any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. From and after the effective date of an Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Section 9.07, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. All payments hereunder of principal or interest in respect of any Advance shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment.

(b) Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest based on the Prime Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year). All computations of interest based on the LIBO Rate or the NYFRB Rate and of Facility Fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent and all computations of interest pursuant to Section 2.05 shall be made by the applicable Lender, in each case on the basis of a year of 360 days. All computations of interest in respect of Competitive Bid Advances shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days in the case of Floating Rate Bid Advances and on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days in the case of Fixed Rate Bid Advances, as specified in the applicable Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing. Computations of interest or Facility Fees shall in each case be made for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or Facility Fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of Section 2.05, by the applicable Lender), of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

-24-


(c) Payment Due Dates. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or Facility Fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of LIBO Rate Advances or Floating Rate Bid Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(d) Presumption of Borrower Payment. Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent such Borrower has not made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent at the higher of (i) the NYFRB Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

SECTION 2.15 Taxes.

(a) Except as required by law, any and all payments by each Borrower and Mondelēz International hereunder or under any Note shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.14, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, in each case, imposed by any Governmental Authority (including penalties, interest and additions to taxes) with respect thereto, excluding, (i) in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes and branch profits taxes imposed on it, in each case, as a result of such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) being organized under the laws of the taxing jurisdiction, (ii) in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes and branch profits taxes imposed on it, in each case, as a result of such Lender having its Applicable Lending Office in the taxing jurisdiction, (iii) in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, franchise taxes and branch profits taxes imposed on it, and any tax imposed by means of withholding, in each case, to the extent such tax is imposed solely as a result of a present or former connection (other than a connection arising from such Lender or the Administrative Agent having executed, delivered, enforced, become a party to, performed its obligations, received payments, received or perfected a security interest under, and/or engaged in any other transaction pursuant to this Agreement or a Note) between the Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and the taxing jurisdiction, (iv) in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, any U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA, (v) in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, any Home Jurisdiction U.S. Withholding Tax to the extent that such tax is imposed with respect to any payments pursuant to any law in effect at the time such Lender or Administrative Agent becomes a party hereto (or, if later with respect to an applicable interest in an Advance, the date such applicable interest is acquired) or changes its Applicable Lending Office, except (A) to the extent of the additional amounts in respect of such taxes under this Section 2.15 to which such Lender’s assignor (if any) or such Lender’s prior Applicable Lending Office (if any) was entitled, immediately prior to such assignment or change in its Applicable Lending Office or (B) if such Lender becomes a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance upon the demand of Mondelēz International, and (vi) taxes attributable to a Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s (as applicable) failure to comply with Sections 2.15(e), (f), and (g) (all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings in respect of payments by each Borrower and Mondelēz International hereunder or under any Note, other than taxes referred to in this Section 2.15(a)(i), 2.15(a)(ii), 2.15(a)(iii), 2.15(a)(iv), 2.15(a)(v), or 2.15(a)(vi), are referred to herein as “Taxes”). If any applicable withholding agent shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes or other taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (x) the sum payable by Mondelēz International or the applicable Borrower shall be increased as may be necessary so that after all required deductions for Taxes (including deductions for Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) have been made, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent where the Administrative Agent receives payments for its own account) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions for Taxes been made, (y) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and (z) the applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

 

-25-


(b) In addition, each Borrower or Mondelēz International shall pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes, intangible, recording, filing or similar taxes (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, Taxes, or taxes referred to in Sections 2.15(a)(i) to 2.15(a)(v)) that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or a Note other than any such taxes imposed by reason of an Assignment and Acceptance (other than an Assignment and Acceptance executed pursuant to Section 9.07(h)) (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Each Borrower and Mondelēz International shall indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.15) payable by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), makes written demand therefor.

(d) As soon as practicable after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, the applicable Borrower or Mondelēz International shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, shall provide each of the Administrative Agent, Mondelēz International and each applicable Borrower with any form or certificate that is required by any U.S. federal taxing authority to certify such Lender’s entitlement to any applicable exemption from or reduction in, Home Jurisdiction U.S. Withholding Tax in respect of any payments hereunder or under any Note (including, if applicable, two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service or to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership or participating Lender granting a participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.07(e)), two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8IMY, accompanied by any applicable certification documents from each beneficial owner) and any other documentation reasonably requested by Mondelēz International, the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, each such Lender shall provide additional forms or certificates (i) to the extent a form or certificate previously provided has become inaccurate or invalid or has otherwise ceased to be effective or (ii) as requested in writing by Mondelēz International, the Administrative Agent or such Borrower or, if such Lender no longer qualifies for the applicable exemption from or reduction in, Home Jurisdiction U.S. Withholding Tax, promptly notify the Administrative Agent and Mondelēz International or such Borrower of its inability to do so. Unless such Borrower, Mondelēz International and the Administrative Agent have received forms or other documents from each Lender satisfactory to them indicating that payments hereunder or under any Note are not subject to Home Jurisdiction U.S. Withholding Taxes or are subject to Home Jurisdiction U.S. Withholding Taxes at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, such Borrower, Mondelēz International or the Administrative Agent shall withhold such Home Jurisdiction U.S. Withholding Taxes from such payments at the applicable statutory rate as required by law in the case of payments to or for such Lender and such Borrower or Mondelēz International shall pay additional amounts to the extent required by paragraph (a) of this Section 2.15 (subject to the exceptions contained in this Section 2.15). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code, shall provide the Administrative Agent, and any such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall provide to each of Mondelēz International and each applicable Borrower, on or about the date on which such Person becomes a party or a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Mondelēz International) executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

(f) If a payment made to a Lender hereunder or under any Note would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed pursuant to FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall provide each of the Administrative Agent, Mondelēz International

 

-26-


and each applicable Borrower, at the time or times prescribed by law and as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, Mondelēz International or the applicable Borrower, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, Mondelēz International or the applicable Borrower as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent, Mondelēz International or the applicable Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Thereafter, each such Lender shall provide additional documentation (i) to the extent documentation previously provided has become inaccurate or invalid or has otherwise ceased to be effective or (ii) as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, Mondelēz International or the applicable Borrower. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g) In the event that a Designated Subsidiary is a Foreign Subsidiary of Mondelēz International, each Lender shall promptly complete and deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent, or, at their request, to the applicable taxing authority, so long as such Lender is legally eligible to do so, any certificate or form reasonably requested in writing by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent and required by applicable law in order to secure any applicable exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, deduction or withholding of the applicable Home Jurisdiction Non-U.S. Withholding Taxes.

(h) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.15 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to select or change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a selection or change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender be otherwise materially economically disadvantageous to such Lender.

(i) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to a Borrower and Mondelēz International and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (e), (f) or (g) of this Section 2.15.

(j) If any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, obtains a refund of any Tax or Other Tax for which payment has been made pursuant to this Section 2.15, or, in lieu of obtaining such refund, such Lender or the Administrative Agent applies the amount that would otherwise have been refunded as a credit against payment of a liability in respect of taxes, which refund or credit in the good faith judgment of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, (and without any obligation to disclose its tax records) is allocable to such payment made under this Section 2.15, the amount of such refund or credit (together with any interest received thereon and reduced by reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in obtaining such refund or credit and by any applicable taxes) promptly shall be paid to the applicable Borrower to the extent payment has been made in full by such Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15.

SECTION 2.16 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Pro Rata Advances owing to it (other than pursuant to Sections 2.05, 2.10(b)(iii), 2.12, 2.15, 9.04(b), 9.04(c) or 9.07(h)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Pro Rata Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders (for cash at face value) such participations in the Pro Rata Advances made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with the Lenders in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Pro Rata Advances; provided, however, that (a) if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered and (b) the provisions of this Section 2.16 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, as in effect from time to time) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Pro Rata Advances to any Person that is an Eligible Assignee (as such term is defined from time to time). Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing

 

-27-


a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.17 Evidence of Debt.

(a) Lender Records; Pro Rata Notes. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Pro Rata Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Pro Rata Advances. Each Borrower shall, upon notice by any Lender to such Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a Pro Rata Note is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Pro Rata Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Pro Rata Note payable to such Lender (or its registered assigns) in a principal amount up to the Commitment of such Lender.

(b) Record of Borrowings, Payables and Payments. The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(d) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded as follows:

(i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto;

(ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it;

(iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and the Maturity Date applicable thereto; and

(iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) Evidence of Payment Obligations. Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.17(b), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Section 2.17(a), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that, subject to Section 9.07(d), the failure of a Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.18 [Reserved].

SECTION 2.19 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) for general corporate purposes of Mondelēz International and its Subsidiaries.

SECTION 2.20 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.09(a); and

(b) the Commitment and Advances of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01); provided that any amendment, waiver or modification of a type described in clause (b), (c) or (d) of the first proviso in Section 9.01 that would apply to the Commitments of or Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

 

-28-


In the event that each of the Administrative Agent and Mondelēz International agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Pro Rata Advances of the other Lenders (together with any break funding incurred by such other Lenders as a result of such purchase) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Pro Rata Advances in accordance with its pro rata portion of the total Commitments and clauses (a) and (b) above shall cease to apply.

ARTICLE VII

The Administrative Agent

SECTION 7.01 Authorization and Action. Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided herein), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by Mondelēz International or any other Borrower as required by the terms of this Agreement or at the request of Mondelēz International or such other Borrower, and any notice provided pursuant to Section 5.01(c)(iv), but otherwise no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Mondelēz International or its Subsidiaries or affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as an Agent or any of its affiliates in any capacity. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall any Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against any Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

SECTION 7.02 Administrative Agents Reliance, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its affiliates or its or their directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a) may treat the Lender that made any Advance as the holder of the Debt resulting therefrom until the Administrative Agent receives and accepts an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by such Lender, as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, as provided in Section 9.07;

(b) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for Mondelēz International or any other Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts;

-38-


(e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, the Notes or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and

(f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or the Notes by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile, registered mail or, for the purposes of Section 2.02(a) or 2.07(b), email) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

SECTION 7.03 The Administrative Agent and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment and the Advances made by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, Mondelēz International, any other Borrower, any of their respective Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Mondelēz International, any other Borrower or any such Subsidiary, all as if the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 7.04 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent any Joint Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation 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.

SECTION 7.05 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Mondelēz International or the other Borrowers), ratably according to the respective principal amounts of the Pro Rata Advances then owing to each of them (or if no Pro Rata Advances are at the time outstanding, ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, in each case, to the extent relating to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”), provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of the Indemnified Costs resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share (determined as set forth in the first sentence of this Section 7.05) of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by Mondelēz International or the other Borrowers. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 7.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or a third party.

SECTION 7.06 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and Mondelēz International and, if the Administrative Agent shall have become a Defaulting Lender, may be removed at any time by the Required Lenders. Upon the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent (with the consent of Mondelēz International so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lenders’ removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring

 

-39-


Administrative Agent may (with the consent of Mondelēz International so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be (a) a Lender and (b) a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement; provided that should the Administrative Agent for any reason not appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which it is under no obligation to do, then the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties referred to in this Section 7.06 shall be vested in the Required Lenders until a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VII and Section 9.04 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

SECTION 7.07 Joint Lead Arrangers, Co-Syndication Agents and Co-Documentation Agents. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Joint Lead Arrangers, Co-Syndication Agents or Co-Documentation Agents shall have any duties or responsibilities under this Agreement except in its capacity, as applicable, as Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

SECTION 7.08 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.15(a) or 2.15(c), each Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, any and all taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding tax ineffective).

This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection.

SECTION 8.02 Guaranty Absolute.

This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Designated Subsidiary Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of a Designated Subsidiary or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

SECTION 8.03 Waivers.

(b) Mondelēz International hereby irrevocably subordinates any claims or other rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Designated Subsidiary that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of Mondelēz International’s obligations under this Guaranty or this Agreement, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against such Designated Subsidiary or any collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from such Designated Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, in each case to the claims and rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in respect of the payment in full of the Designated Subsidiary Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Guaranty relating to such Designated Subsidiary (the “Payment in Full”) and Mondelēz International agrees not to enforce any such claim for payment against any such Designated Subsidiary until the Payment in Full has occurred.

Mondelēz International acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Agreement and this Guaranty and that the agreements set forth in this Section 8.03(b) are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.03(b), Mondelēz International shall be permitted to charge, and any Borrower shall be permitted to pay, a guaranty fee in connection with the entry by Mondelēz International into this Guaranty, as may be agreed by Mondelēz International and such Borrower.

(iii) Mondelēz International, the other Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement,

(iv) each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12 and 2.15 (subject to the limitations and requirements of those Sections, including the requirements to provide forms and/or certificates pursuant to Section 2.15(e), 2.15(f) or 2.15(g); provided that a participant shall provide the forms and/or certificates solely to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section; provided, further, that this clause (iv) shall be subject to clause (vi) below in all respects,

(v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any departure by Mondelēz International or any other Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, and

(vi) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.12 and 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with Mondelēz International’s or the relevant Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the applicable Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal and stated interest amounts of each participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). 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. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of a Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Advances or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Advance or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or Section 163(f) of the Code or the United States Treasury Regulations issued thereunder or, if different, under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code.

(f) Disclosure of Information. Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to Mondelēz International or any other Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of Mondelēz International or any other Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to Mondelēz International or any other Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries received by it from such Lender.

 

-49-


(g) Security Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank or central bank performing similar functions in accordance with applicable law.

(h) Replacement of Lenders. In the event that (i) any Lender shall have delivered a notice pursuant to Section 2.13, (ii) any Borrower shall be required to make additional payments to or for the account of any Lender under Section 2.12 or 2.15, (iii) any Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) shall withhold its consent to any amendment that requires the consent of all the Lenders and that has been consented to by the Required Lenders or (iv) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, Mondelēz International shall have the right, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (A) to terminate the Commitment of such Lender or (B) to require such Lender to transfer and assign at par and without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 9.07) all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees acceptable to Mondelēz International and approved by the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), which shall assume such obligations; provided, that (x) in the case of any replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender, each assignee shall have consented to the relevant amendment, (y) no such termination or assignment shall conflict with any law or any rule, regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (z) the Borrowers or the assignee (or assignees), as the case may be, shall pay to each affected Lender in immediately available funds on the date of such termination or assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Advances made by it hereunder and all other amounts accrued for its account or owed to it hereunder. Mondelēz International will not have the right to terminate the Commitment of any Lender, or to require any Lender to assign its rights and interests hereunder, if, prior to such termination or assignment, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Mondelēz International to require such termination or assignment cease to apply. Each Lender agrees that, if Mondelēz International elects to replace such Lender in accordance with this Section 9.07, it shall promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance to evidence the assignment and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Note (if Notes have been issued in respect of such Lender’s Advances) subject to such Assignment and Acceptance; provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Acceptance shall not render such assignment invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register.

SECTION 9.08 Designated Subsidiaries.

(a) Designation. Mondelēz International may at any time, and from time to time after the Effective Date, by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Designation Agreement duly executed by Mondelēz International and the respective Subsidiary and substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, designate any wholly owned Subsidiary as a “Designated Subsidiary” for purposes of this Agreement and such Subsidiary shall thereupon, but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.02, become a “Designated Subsidiary” for purposes of this Agreement and, as such, shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Borrower hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each such designation by Mondelēz International and the identity of the applicable Subsidiary.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be required to make Advances to a Designated Subsidiary in the event that the making of such Advances would or could reasonably be expected to breach, violate or otherwise be inconsistent with any internal policy (other than with respect to Designated Subsidiaries formed under the laws of any nation that is a member of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development as of the date hereof), law or regulation to which such Lender is, or would be upon the making of such Advance, subject. In addition, each Lender shall have the right to make any Advances to any Designated Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary of Mondelēz International through an affiliate or non-U.S. branch of such Lender designated by such Lender at its sole option; provided such designation and Advance does not, in and of itself, subject the Borrowers to greater costs pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.15 than would have been payable if such Lender made such Advance directly.

(b) Termination. (i) Upon the payment and performance in full of all of the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement of any Designated Subsidiary then, so long as at the time no Notice of Pro Rata Borrowing or Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing in respect of such Designated Subsidiary is outstanding, such Subsidiary’s status as a “Designated Subsidiary” shall terminate upon notice to such effect from

 

-50-


the Administrative Agent to the Lenders (which notice the Administrative Agent shall give promptly, upon and only upon its receipt of a request therefor from Mondelēz International). Thereafter, the Lenders shall be under no further obligation to make any Advance hereunder to such former Designated Subsidiary until such time as it has been redesignated a Designated Subsidiary by Mondelēz International pursuant to Section 9.08(a).

(ii) If (A) a Designated Subsidiary is to consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or to consummate a Division as the Dividing Person and (B) the Person surviving such consolidation or merger (the “Surviving Subsidiary”) or the Division Successor that would otherwise succeed to the obligations of such Designated Subsidiary under this Agreement, as applicable, will not be (1) organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof or the District of Columbia or (2) located in the same jurisdiction as the Designated Subsidiary effecting such consolidation, merger or Division at the time such consolidation, merger or Division is effective, then any principal of or interest on any Advances outstanding to such Designated Subsidiary shall be repaid prior to, and the status of such Subsidiary as a “Designated Subsidiary” will be deemed to be terminated as to such Surviving Subsidiary or Division Successor, as applicable, at the time of, such merger, consolidation or Division.

SECTION 9.09 Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the substantive laws of the State of New York without regard to choice of law doctrines.

SECTION 9.10 Execution in Counterparts; Electronic Execution(a) . (a) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or email shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(b) The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”, “delivery” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement, any Notes or any Designation Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries 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, physical delivery thereof 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; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept electronic signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent.

SECTION 9.11 Jurisdiction, Etc.

(a) Submission to Jurisdiction; Service of Process. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York and the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined exclusively in such United States District Court or, in the event such United States District Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, such Supreme Court; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties hereto shall retain the right to bring any such action or proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction in connection with the enforcement of any judgment. Each of the Designated Subsidiaries hereby agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding brought in any such court may be made upon the process agent appointed pursuant to Section 9.11(b) (the “Process Agent”) and each Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably appoints the Process Agent as its authorized agent to accept such service of process, and agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of any such service shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon. Each of Mondelēz International and each other Borrower hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any such action or proceeding in any such court by the mailing thereof by any parties hereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to Mondelēz International or such other Borrower, as applicable, at its address specified pursuant to Section 9.02. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any Note shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

 

-51-


(b) Appointment of Process Agent. Each of the Designated Subsidiaries hereby appoints Mondelēz International, and Mondelēz International hereby accepts such appointment, as its Process Agent from the Effective Date through the repayment in full of all Obligations and the termination of all the Commitments hereunder (i) to receive, accept and acknowledge on behalf of such Designated Subsidiary and its property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and (ii) to forward forthwith to such Designated Subsidiary at its address copies of any summons, complaint and other process which the Process Agent receives in connection with its appointment. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to any Designated Subsidiary in care of Mondelēz International at Mondelēz International’s address used for purposes of giving notices under Section 9.02, and each Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Mondelēz International to accept such service on its behalf and Mondelēz International hereby agrees to accept such service on its behalf.

(c) Waivers.

(i) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(ii) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of Mondelēz International, the other Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not assert and hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto or any of their respective affiliates, or any other Indemnified Party, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to this Agreement or any related document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each of the parties hereto hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. For the avoidance of doubt, the waiver of claims for such damages against Mondelēz International and each other Borrower shall not limit the indemnity obligations set forth in Section 9.04(c). No Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(iii) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND

 

-52-


THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 9.11(C) AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO, OR ANY OF THE OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE ADVANCES MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

(iv) In the event any Designated Subsidiary or any of its assets has or hereafter acquires, in any jurisdiction in which judicial proceedings may at any time be commenced with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the Designation Agreement or any related document, any immunity from jurisdiction, legal proceedings, attachment (whether before or after judgment), execution, judgment or setoff, such Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives such immunity.

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality. None of the Agents nor any Lender shall disclose any confidential information relating to Mondelēz International or any other Borrower to any other Person without the consent of Mondelēz International, other than (a) to such Agent’s or such Lender’s affiliates and its and their officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, insurers and re-insurers, rating agencies, market data collectors, credit insurance providers, any direct, indirect, actual or prospective counterparty (and its advisor) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction related to the obligations under this Agreement and, as contemplated by Section 9.07(f), to actual or prospective assignees and participants, and then, in each such case, only on a confidential basis; provided, however, that such actual or prospective assignee or participant shall have been made aware of this Section 9.12 and shall have agreed to be bound by its provisions as if it were a party to this Agreement, (b) as required by any law, rule or regulation or judicial process, (c) as requested or required by any state, federal or foreign authority or examiner regulating banks or banking or other financial institutions, including in connection with the creation of security interests as contemplated by Section 9.07(g) and (d) in connection with enforcing or administering this Agreement.

SECTION 9.13 No Fiduciary Relationship. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith (a) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Borrowers, on the one hand, and any Agent or any Lender, on the other hand, is intended to be or has been created, by implication or otherwise, in respect of any of the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement, irrespective of whether any Agent or any Lender has advised or is advising Mondelēz International on other matters (it being understood and agreed that nothing in this provision will relieve any Agent or any Lender of any advisory or fiduciary responsibilities it may have in connection with other transactions) and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications and (b) each Agent and each Lender may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrowers, their equityholders and/or their affiliates and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Agents and the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Agent or Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

SECTION 9.14 Integration. This Agreement, the Notes and each Designation Agreement represent the agreement of Mondelēz International, the other Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent, Mondelēz International, the other Borrowers or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the Notes or the Designation Agreements other than the matters referred to in Sections 2.09(b) and 9.04(a), the Fee Letter and any other fee letters entered into among Mondelēz International and the Administrative Agent or the Joint Lead Arrangers, if any, and except for any confidentiality agreements entered into by Lenders in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

-53-

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”) and/or the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of such Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

SECTION 9.16 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under this Agreement or any other documents or agreements relating to the Advances made hereunder, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder that may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other documents or agreements relating to the Advances made hereunder; and

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

SECTION 9.17 Non-Public Information. Each Lender acknowledges that all information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by Mondelēz International or the other Borrowers or the Administrative Agent pursuant to or in connection with, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain MNPI. Each Lender represents to the Borrowers and the Agents that (a) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of MNPI and that it will handle MNPI in accordance with such procedures and applicable law, including Federal, state and foreign securities laws, and (b) it has identified in its administrative questionnaire delivered to the Administrative Agent in connection herewith a credit contact who may receive information that may contain MNPI in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal, state and foreign securities laws.

SECTION 9.18 Mondelēz International as Agent of Designated Subsidiaries. Each Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably appoints Mondelēz International as its agent for all purposes of this Agreement, the Notes and any Designation Agreement, including (a) the giving and receipt of notices (including any Notice of Pro Rata Borrowing or any Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing) and (b) the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein. Each Designated Subsidiary hereby acknowledges that any amendment or other modification to this Agreement may be effected as set forth in Section 9.01, that no consent of such Designated Subsidiary shall be required to effect any such amendment or other modification and that such Designated Subsidiary shall be bound by this Agreement, the Notes, any Designation Agreement or any other documented contemplated herein or therein (if it is theretofore a party thereto) as so amended or modified.
