If the Borrower adopts the International Financial Reporting Standards, and such change or adoption results in a change in the calculation of any component (or components in the aggregate) of the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.04 hereof or the related financial definitions, at the option of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders or the Borrower, the parties hereto will enter into good faith negotiations to amend such financial covenant and financial definitions in such manner as the parties shall agree, each acting reasonably, in order to reflect fairly such change or adoption so that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be the same in commercial effect after, as well as before, such change or adoption is made (in which case the method and calculating such financial covenants and definitions hereunder shall be determined in the manner so agreed); provided that, until so amended, such calculations shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP as in effect prior to such change or adoption.

The Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of Daily Simple SONIA, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Successor Rate) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain Daily Simple SONIA, any component definition thereof or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

ARTICLE II

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE LOANS

SECTION 2.01. Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender severally agrees to make Loans to the Borrower in Sterling, (x) from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period for any Certain Funds Purpose other than the Target Refinancing and (y) on the Closing Date, to fund the Target Refinancing, if any, in each case, in an aggregate amount not to exceed such Lender’s Commitment. Amounts prepaid or repaid in respect of the Loans may not be re-borrowed.

SECTION 2.02. Evidence of Indebtedness. Upon the request of a Lender, to evidence the obligation of the Borrower to repay the portion of the Loan made by such Lender and to pay interest thereon, the Borrower shall execute a Note, payable to such Lender and its registered assigns in the principal amount of its Commitment; provided that the failure of such Lender to request a Note shall in no way detract from the Borrower’s obligations to such Lender hereunder.

SECTION 2.03. Interest.

(a) Generally. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made to it and owing to each Lender from the date of such Loan is funded by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.05(d) until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at a rate per annum equal to the Derived Rate, payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

(b) Default Rate. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, upon the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and on the unpaid amount of all interest, fees and other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder, such interest to be payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to two percent (2%) per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid pursuant to subsection (a) above.

(c) Limitation on Interest. In no event shall the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate allowable by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, apply any excess to the payment of outstanding principal, expenses, fees, or premiums rather than interest.

28

SECTION 2.04. Voluntary Commitment Reductions and Prepayments.

(a) Commitment Reductions. The Borrower may at any time, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, which shall be irrevocable, terminate in whole or in part the Commitments, provided that any notice of termination may state that it is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of proceeds from another transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent) if such condition is not satisfied. Each termination of Commitments hereunder shall be permanent.

(b) Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time or from time to time to prepay, on a pro rata basis for all of the Lenders, all or any part of the principal amount of the Loans. Such payment shall include interest accrued on the amount so prepaid to the date of such prepayment and shall be without any premium or penalty. Each prepayment of the Loans shall be applied as directed by the Borrower.

The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice of prepayment of Loans by no later than 1:00 P.M. (Eastern time) three Business Days before the Business Day on which such prepayment is to be made; provided that any notice of prepayment may state that it is conditioned upon the incurrence of other Indebtedness or the receipt of proceeds from another transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent) if such condition is not satisfied.

Each partial reduction of Commitments or prepayment of Loans shall be in the principal amount of not less than Ten Million Sterling (£10,000,000), increased by increments of One Million Sterling (£1,000,000), or, in each case, the entire amount then outstanding.

SECTION 2.05. Notice of Credit Events; Funding of Loans.

(a) Notice of Credit Events. The Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Loan borrowing, in the form of Exhibit C hereto, prior to 11:00 A.M. (Eastern Time) three Business Days prior to the proposed date of borrowing of any Loans.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Minimum Amount. Each request for a borrowing of Loans shall be in an amount of not less than Ten Million Sterling (£10,000,000), increased by increments of One Million Sterling (£1,000,000), or, in each case, the entire amount then outstanding.

(d) Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall, before 11:00 A.M. (Eastern time) on the date that is one Business Day prior to the requested date of borrowing by the Borrower, make available for the account of its lending office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of the requested Loan. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article V, the Administrative Agent will wire or deposit the proceeds of the Loan, in same day funds, to such account as the Borrower may direct on the date of the requested borrowing.

(e) Obligations Several. The failure of any Lender to make its portion of any Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its portion of any Loan, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make their portion of the Loan.

29

SECTION 2.06. Payment on the Loans and Other Obligations.

(a) Payments Generally. Each payment made hereunder or under any other Loan Document by the Borrower shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(b) Payments in Sterling. All payments, including but not limited to principal, interest, fees or any other amount owed by the Borrower under this Agreement, shall be made in Sterling. All payments described in this subsection (b) shall be remitted to the Administrative Agent, at the address of the Administrative Agent for notices referred to in Section 10.01 hereof for the account of the Lenders not later than 9:00 A.M. (Eastern time) on the due date thereof in immediately available funds. Any such payments received by the Administrative Agent after 9:00 A.M. (Eastern time) shall be deemed to have been made and received on the next Business Day.

(c) Payments to Lenders. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of payments hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall immediately distribute to each Lender its ratable share of the amount of principal, interest, and facility and other fees received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender. Payments received by the Administrative Agent shall be delivered to the Lenders in immediately available funds. Each Lender shall record any principal, interest or other payments, the principal amounts, all prepayments and the applicable dates, with respect to its portion of any Loan made, and payments received by such Lender, by such method as such Lender may generally employ; provided that failure to make any such entry shall in no way detract from the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or any Note. The aggregate unpaid amount of the Loans and other information with respect to the Loans set forth in the records of the Administrative Agent shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence with respect to such information, including the amounts of principal, interest and fees owing to each Lender.

(d) Timing of Payments. Subject to the limitations in the definition of “Interest Payment Date”, whenever any payment to be made hereunder, including, without limitation, any payment to be made on the Loans, shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next Business Day and such extension of time shall in each case be included in the computation of the interest payable on the Loans.

(e) Computations. All computations (i) of interest shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable, and (ii) of fees (including Ticking Fees) and other amounts hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(f) Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the 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

30

each such Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such 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 a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

SECTION 2.07. Mandatory Commitment Reductions and Repayments.

(a) Commitment Termination Date. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall automatically terminate upon the termination of the Certain Funds Period.

(b) Maturity Date. The Borrower promises to repay all outstanding Loans on the Maturity Date or such earlier date as required herein.

(c) Debt Issuances, Equity Issuances and Dispositions. In the event that the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries receives any Net Cash Proceeds from:

(1) the issuance of any Equity Interests by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, other than an Excluded Equity Issuance;

(2) the incurrence of any Indebtedness by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, other than Excluded Debt; or

(3) from any Disposition, other than an Excluded Disposition,

then first, the undrawn Commitments shall be automatically reduced in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds (or the Sterling Equivalent thereof) on the date of receipt by the Borrower or such Subsidiary thereof until the undrawn Commitments equal zero, and thereafter, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds (or the Sterling Equivalent thereof) to the extent remaining following the reduction of the Commitments to zero, not later than five (5) Business Days following the receipt by the Borrower thereof.

In addition, if the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall enter in to a term loan or other credit agreement (including an amendment to any existing agreement, including the Revolving Credit Facility) for the stated purpose of financing the Acquisition which has conditions to availability thereunder that are no more restrictive to the borrower thereunder than the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.02 (a “Qualifying Loan Facility”) then the Commitments shall be automatically reduced in an amount equal to the commitments thereunder (or the Sterling Equivalent thereof) on the date of the execution of such Qualifying Loan Facility.

The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of the receipt by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any such Net Cash Proceeds or upon the execution of any Qualifying Loan Facility, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice.

31

Any termination or reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be permanent. Each prepayment or reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be applied to the Loans or Commitments, as applicable, of the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the Loans or Commitments, as applicable.

SECTION 2.08. Payment of Fees.

(a) Ticking Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, as a consideration for the Commitments, a ticking fee (the “Ticking Fee”) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate multiplied by the average daily outstanding aggregate amount of the Commitments, which will accrue beginning on October 1, 2021 through the date of termination or expiration of the Commitments (including upon the borrowing of the Loans). The accrued Ticking Fees shall be payable in Sterling on each date of borrowing of the Loans and on the date of termination or expiration of the Commitments.

(b) Lender Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, all fees payable for the account of the Lenders, in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee and Syndication Letter.

(c) Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, all fees payable for the Administrative Agent’s own account, in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee and Syndication Letter.

(d) Duration Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, duration fees (the “Duration Fees”) in amounts equal to the percentage, as determined in accordance with the grid below, of the aggregate amount of the Loans and Commitments outstanding at 5:00 P.M. (New York City time) on each date set forth in the grid below, in each case payable on each such applicable date:

SECTION 2.09. Increased Costs, Illegality, Etc.

(a) Change in Law. If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation or application (to the extent any such introduction or change occurs after the date hereof) of any law or regulation, or (ii) compliance with any direction, guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority adopted or made after the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to, or reduction in the amount receivable by, any Lender in connection with agreeing to make or making, continuing, converting to, funding or maintaining its Commitments or its Loans (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon 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 or reduction. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted the

32

Borrower by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. For purposes of this Section 2.09, the Dodd-Frank Act, any requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, or the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority) under Basel III, and any rules, regulations, orders, requests, guidelines and directives adopted, promulgated or implemented in connection with any of the foregoing, regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented, are deemed to have been introduced and adopted after the Effective Date.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines in good faith that compliance with any law or regulation enacted or introduced after the date hereof or any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority adopted or made after the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect liquidity requirements or the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender, and that the amount of such capital or liquidity requirement is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s Commitment or the Loans, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender therefor to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity requirement to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s Commitment, or to the making or maintenance of Loans. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Rates Unavailable. If the Administrative Agent determines that no reasonable basis exists for determining Daily Simple SONIA (including pursuant to the second sentence in the definition thereof), the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon the Derived Rate shall automatically be amended, without any action by any other party to this Agreement, to refer to the sum of the Central Bank Rate plus the applicable Central Bank Rate Adjustment plus the Applicable Rate. If the circumstances in the immediately preceding sentence apply but the Central Bank Rate is unavailable for any day, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon the Derived Rate shall then automatically be amended, without any action by any other party to this Agreement, to refer to the sum of the most recent Central Bank Rate for a day which is no more than five Business Days before such date of determination plus the Central Bank Rate Adjustment plus the Applicable Rate.

(d) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of (to the extent any such introduction or change occurs after the date hereof) any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction shall assert in writing after the date hereof that it is unlawful, for any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder to make or continue to maintain its Loans or Commitments, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, whereupon the obligation of such Lender to make Loans shall be suspended shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided that, before making any such demand, such Lender agrees to use reasonable

33

efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its lending office to continue to perform its obligations to make or continue to maintain its Loans or Commitments and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(e) Replacement of Daily Simple SONIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Borrower) that the Required Lenders have determined, that: (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Daily Simple SONIA, including, without limitation, because SONIA is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or (ii) the SONIA Administrator or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which Daily Simple SONIA or SONIA shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans, then, after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace Daily Simple SONIA with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) that has been broadly accepted by the syndicated loan market in the United States in lieu of Daily Simple SONIA (any such proposed rate, a “Successor Rate”), together with any proposed Successor Rate Conforming Changes and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.02, any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment; provided that if at any time any Successor Rate is less than zero, such Successor Rate shall be deemed to be zero for all purposes of this Agreement. If no Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist, then the Derived Rate shall be determined in accordance with Section 2.09(c) above.

SECTION 2.10. Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.10, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.10) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

34

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.10) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.04 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative

35

Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in paragraphs (ii)(A), (ii)(B), (ii)(D) and (ii)(E) of this Section 2.10) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or about the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W 8BEN-E; or

36

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made;

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement; and

(E) on or before the date on which the Administrative Agent (including any successor or replacement Administrative Agent) becomes the Administrative Agent hereunder, it shall deliver to the Borrower two executed copies of either (a) IRS Form W-9 or (b) with respect to amounts received on its own account, IRS Form W-8ECI and with respect to amounts received on account of any Lender, IRS Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a U.S. branch that has agreed to be treated as a U.S. Person for U.S. federal tax purposes or a qualified intermediary that has agreed to assume primary withholding obligations for Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 of the Code with respect to payments received by it from the Borrower in its capacity as Administrative Agent, as applicable.

37

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.10 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

SECTION 2.11. 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) of any amount owing to it hereunder (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.09, 2.10 or 10.03) in excess of its ratable share thereof such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the amounts owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided that, 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 (a) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment, to (b) 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. The Borrower agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.11 may 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 the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

38

SECTION 2.12. Mitigation; Replacement of Lender.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.09 or 2.10, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking the Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.09 or 2.10, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. In addition, each Lender may, at its option, make its portion of any Loan available to or for the account of the Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make the Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Election to Replace by the Borrower. Subject to subsection (c) below, in the event that any Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 2.09 or 2.10, then, so long as such condition exists, the Borrower may at its sole expense and effort require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse to or representation or warranty by such Lender, all of such Lender’s Commitment and/or outstanding Loans to an assignee (any such assignee being herein called a “Replacement Lender”) acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law. The purchase price of any such assignment shall be equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans held by such Lender plus all accrued but unpaid interest and accrued but unpaid fees owing to such Lender (and upon such delegation and assignment, and subject to the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent by the Replacement Lender of documentation prepared by and satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and compliance with the requirements of Section 10.04(b), the Replacement Lender shall thereupon be deemed to be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement and shall succeed to the rights and obligations of the Lender being replaced hereunder); provided that the Borrower shall also arrange for payment to the Administrative Agent of the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 10.04(b)(iv) with respect to such assignment. In the event that the Borrower exercises its rights under this subsection (b), the Lender being replaced shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights or obligations hereunder; provided that the obligations of the Borrower to such Lender under Sections 2.09, 2.10 and 10.03 with respect to events occurring or obligations arising before or as a result of such replacement shall survive such exercise. The Borrower may not exercise its rights under this Section 2.12(b) with respect to any Lender if a Default has occurred and is then continuing.

(c) Replacement of Affected Lenders. Each Lender agrees that, during the time in which a Lender is an Affected Lender, the Administrative Agent shall have the right (and the Administrative Agent shall, if requested by the Borrower), at the sole expense of the Borrower, upon notice to such Affected Lender and the Borrower and receipt of the Borrower’s written consent thereto, to require that such Affected Lender assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with the restrictions contained in Section 10.04 hereof), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee, approved by the Borrower (unless an Event of

39

Default shall exist) and the Administrative Agent, that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that such Affected Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its portion of the Loan, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from such assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts).

SECTION 2.13. Interest Rate Determination.

(a) [Reserved].

(b) [Reserved].

(c) [Reserved].

(d) Changes in Ratings Systems. If the rating system of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch shall change, or if any such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) shall negotiate in good faith to amend the references to specific ratings in this Agreement to reflect such changed rating system or the non-availability of ratings from such rating agency (provided, that no such amendment to such specific ratings shall in any event be effective without the approval of the Required Lenders).

(iii) comply in all material respects with the Takeover Code and all other applicable laws and regulations material in relation to any Offer or Scheme, subject to any consents, waivers or dispensations granted by the Panel or any other applicable regulator or the requirements of the Court;

(v) deliver to the Administrative Agent copies of each Press Release, each Offer Document, any Scheme Document and all material legally binding agreements entered into by the Borrower in connection with an Offer or Scheme to the extent material to the interests of the Lenders (as reasonably determined by the Borrower), in each case, except to the extent it is prohibited by law or regulation from doing so;

50

(vi) in the event that a Scheme is switched to an Offer or vice versa (which the Borrower shall be entitled to do on multiple occasions provided that it complies with the terms of this Agreement), except as consented to by the Lead Arranger in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), ensure that the terms and conditions contained in the Offer Documents or the Scheme Documents (whichever is applicable) are consistent in all material respects with those set out in the Press Release delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5.01(b) other than (x) any changes permitted to be made in accordance with Section 6.11(b) or which are required to reflect the change in legal form to an Offer or a Scheme, (y) in the case of a Scheme, any variation required by the Court or (z) any amendments that are not Materially Adverse Amendments;

(vii) in the case of an Offer, following the Closing Date while any Commitments remain outstanding, should the Borrower become entitled to exercise its Squeeze-Out Rights, promptly ensure that Squeeze-Out Notices are delivered to the relevant holders of shares in Target and otherwise comply with all of the applicable provisions of Chapter 3 of Part 28 of the Companies Act to enable it to exercise its Squeeze-Out Rights;

(viii) shall not take any action, and procure that none of its Affiliates nor any person acting in concert with the Borrower (within the meaning of the Takeover Code) takes any action, which would require the Borrower to make a mandatory offer for the Target Shares in accordance with Rule 9 of the Takeover Code or which would require a change to be made to the terms of the Scheme or the Offer (as the case may be), including pursuant to Rule 6 or Rule 11 of the Takeover Code which change, if made voluntarily, would be a Materially Adverse Amendment;

(ix) prior to the issuance of the relevant Press Release, not at any time (including following the Offer Unconditional Date or Scheme Effective Date) make any public announcement or public statement (other than in the relevant Press Release or Acquisition Document) concerning this Agreement or the parties to this Agreement (other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) in connection with the financing of the Acquisition without the prior written consent of the Lead Arrangers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or unless required to do so by the Takeover Code or the Panel, the court, any regulation, any applicable stock exchange, any applicable governmental or other regulatory authority;

(x) in the case of an Offer, not declare the Offer unconditional unless the Minimum Acceptance Level is achieved;

(xi) subject always to the Companies Act and any applicable listing rules, in the case of a Scheme, within 30 days after the Scheme Effective Date and, in the case of an Offer, within 60 days after the date upon which the Borrower (directly or indirectly) owns Target Shares (excluding any shares held in treasury) which represent not less than 75% of all Target Shares (excluding any shares held in treasury), procure that such action as is necessary is taken to apply for the cancellation of trading in the Target Shares on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange and the listing of the Target Shares on the official list maintained by the Financial Conduct Authority pursuant to Part 6 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and to cause the Target to reregister as a private company under the Companies Act as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter; and

51

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 9.01. 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 under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, 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, and such instructions shall be binding upon all

56

Lenders; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Lead Arranger shall have no powers, duties, responsibilities or liabilities whatsoever under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the inclusion of its title as “lead arranger” shall have no substantive effect.

SECTION 9.02. No Reliance. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its 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 the Loan Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the 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; (b) makes no representation or warranty to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any of them for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with the Loan Documents; (c) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or to inspect Property (including the books and records) of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (d) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Loan Document or any instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (e) shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to it by the Borrower or a Lender; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

SECTION 9.03. Capacity as Lender. With respect to its Commitment and the portion of the Loans made by it, Citibank shall have the same rights and powers hereunder 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 Citibank in its individual capacity. Citibank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures for, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, any of their respective Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower or any such Subsidiary or Affiliate, all as if Citibank were not Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 9.04. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.04 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 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.

57

SECTION 9.05. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent severally and ratably in accordance with the amount of Commitments and Loans held by them, for any amounts that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay under Section 10.03; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses payable by the Borrower under Section 10.03 of this Agreement, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower.

SECTION 9.06. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor. 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 Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed 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; provided, that, if no such successor is willing and able to function as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such resignation or removal shall nonetheless become effective and (a) the resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder, and (b) the Required Lenders shall perform the duties of the Administrative Agent (and all payments and communications provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly) until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above in this Section 9.06. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.07. ERISA Representations.

(a) Each Lender (i) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (ii) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

58

(b) (i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, Commitments or this Agreement;

(ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, Commitments and this Agreement;

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, Commitments and this Agreement; or

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(c) In addition, unless either (a) subpart (i) in subsection (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (b) such Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in subsection (a) above, such Lender further (1) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (2) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lead Arranger is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Commitments, the Loans and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

59

SECTION 9.08. Erroneous Payments.

(a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender (any such Lender or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

(i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii) such Lender shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.08(b).

60

(c) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments), the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an approved electronic platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency.

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any amounts owed by the Borrower hereunder, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

61

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 9.08 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

SECTION 10.02. Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No Deemed Waivers; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by subsection (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of any Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Amendments. Subject to Section 2.09(e), neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall:

(i) increase the Commitments of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender;

(ii) reduce the principal amount of the Loans or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the default rate;

(iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of the Loans, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of the Commitments, without the written consent of each Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to a contingent notice of prepayment which has been revoked;

(iv) change Section 2.11 or the ratable treatment of the Lenders thereunder without the consent of each Lender; or

(v) change any of the provisions of this Section 10.02(b) or the percentage in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;

and provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect (x) the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder or (y) the provisions of Article V, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, error, defect or inconsistency so long as, in each case, the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof (including a copy of such agreement) and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment.

63

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the terms of this Agreement are required to be modified as specified in the applicable provisions of the Fee and Syndication Letter, then this Agreement may be amended (to the extent not adverse to the interests of the Lenders) by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender; provided, that if the Borrower shall fail to execute any amendment that the Lead Arranger reasonably determines is necessary to effect the changes contemplated by the first paragraph of Section 5 of the Fee and Syndication Letter within three Business Days from the date of delivery to the Borrower of a draft thereof, then the Administrative Agent is and shall be authorized to execute such amendment on behalf of the Borrower and such amendment shall become effective without further action by any Person. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree that it will enter into any amendment to this Agreement requested by any Lead Arranger in compliance with the terms of the Fee and Syndication Letter.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make SONIA Conforming Changes from time to time and any amendments implementing such SONIA Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing SONIA Conforming Changes to the Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

SECTION 10.03. Costs and Expenses and Indemnification.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay and reimburse on demand all reasonable costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent as to its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement. The Borrower further agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses, if any (including, without limitation, counsel fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders which shall be limited to one counsel for all such Persons, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, one local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for all such Persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, of one additional counsel and one additional local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for such affected Persons)), incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, counsel fees and expenses in connection with the enforcement of rights under this Section 10.03(a). Such fees and out-of-pocket expenses shall be reimbursed by the Borrower upon presentation to the Borrower of a statement of account, regardless of whether this Agreement is executed and delivered by the parties hereto or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated.

64

(b) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all direct claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which shall be limited to one counsel for all such Persons, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, one local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for all such Persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, of one additional counsel and one additional local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for such affected Persons)), joint or several, that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or relating to any investigation, litigation or proceeding or the preparation of any defense with respect thereto arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds of the Loans, whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, any of its shareholders or creditors, an Indemnified Party or any other Person, or an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto, and whether or not any of the conditions precedent set forth in Article V are satisfied or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, except to the extent such direct claim, damage, loss, liability or expense resulted from such Indemnified Party’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 10.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim (including a value added tax or similar tax charged with respect to the supply of legal or other services).

(c) The Borrower hereby further agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to the Borrower for or in connection with or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds of the Loans, except to the extent such liability resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) The Borrower agrees not to assert any claim against any Indemnified Party, and each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree not to assert any claim against the Borrower on any theory of liability, for consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans.

SECTION 10.04. Assignments and Participations.

(a) Assignments Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

65

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Transferees all or a portion of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that:

(i) (x) the Borrower shall give its prior written consent to such assignment (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that, during the Certain Funds Period, the Borrower may withhold such consent in its sole discretion unless a Certain Funds Event of Default is continuing), except in the case of any assignment (1) to a Lender, (2) following the Certain Funds Period, to an Affiliate of a Lender, (3) if an Event of Default (limited during the Certain Funds Period, to a Certain Funds Event of Default) has occurred and is continuing or (4) pursuant to the syndication provisions of the Fee and Syndication Letter and (y) the Administrative Agent must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided further, that, following the Certain Funds Period, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loan of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than £10,000,000 or in an integral multiple of £1,000,000 in excess thereof unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(iii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations with respect to the Commitments and Loans under this Agreement;

(iv) the parties to each assignment (other than the Borrower) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance prepared by the Administrative Agent, and shall pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of £3,500; and

(v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to subsection (d) of this Section 10.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.09, 2.10 and 10.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (e) of this Section 10.04.

66

(c) Maintenance of Register by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of, and stated interest on, Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Effectiveness of Assignments. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 10.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by subsection (b) of this Section 10.04, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this subsection.

(e) Participations. Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, 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 and the other Loan Documents. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (f) of this Section 10.04, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.09 and 2.10 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 10.04. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Commitments, Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”);

67

provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(f) Limitations on Rights of Participants. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.09 or 2.10 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in Applicable Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.09 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant.

(g) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) No Assignments to the Borrower or Affiliates. Anything in this Section 10.04 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in the Commitments or the Loans held by it hereunder to the Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary thereof without the prior consent of each Lender.

SECTION 10.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on the Loans, or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.09, 2.10 (to the extent provided therein), 10.03 and 10.11, Article IX and this Article X shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

68

SECTION 10.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the Fee and Syndication Letter and the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract between and among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.
