No Swing Line Advance shall be used for the purpose of funding the payment of principal of any other Swing Line Advance. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be in an amount of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and shall be made as a Prime Rate Advance or shall bear interest at such other interest rate, if any, as may be agreed upon by Paxar and the Swing Line Bank.

(c) Letters of Credit. The Issuing Bank agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to issue letters of credit (together with the Existing Letters of Credit, the "Letters of Credit") for the account of a Borrower (other than PI) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until 60 days before the Termination Date (i) in an aggregate Available Amount for all Letters of Credit not to exceed at any time the Issuing Bank's Letter of Credit Commitment at such time, (ii) in an Available Amount for each such Letter of Credit not to exceed the lesser of (x) the Letter of Credit Facility at such time and (y) the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at such time, (iii) in an aggregate Available Amount for all Letters of Credit issued for the account of PHK not to exceed $110,000,000 when combined with the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit A Advances to PHK (determined in the case of any such Borrowings in a Primary Currency by reference to the Equivalent thereof in US Dollars on such Business Day), and (iv) in an aggregate Available Amount for all Letters of Credit issued for the account of PBV not to exceed $25,000,000 when combined with the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit A Advances to PBV (determined in the case of any such Borrowings in a Primary Currency by reference to the Equivalent thereof in US Dollars on such Business Day). No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date (including all rights of the relevant Borrower or the beneficiary to require renewal) later than the earlier of 60 days before the Termination Date and (A) in the case of a Standby Letter of Credit (other than the Existing Letters of Credit), one year after the date of issuance thereof, but may by its terms be automatically renewable annually upon notice (a "Notice of Renewal") given to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent on or prior to any date for notice of renewal set forth in such Letter of Credit but in any event at least three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed renewal of such Standby Letter of Credit and upon fulfilment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III unless such Issuing Bank has notified the relevant Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date for notice of termination set forth in such Letter of Credit but in any event at least 30 Business Days prior to the date of automatic renewal of its election not to renew such Standby Letter of Credit (a "Notice of Termination")) and (B) in the case of a Trade Letter of Credit, 60 days after the date of issuance thereof; provided that the terms of each Standby Letter of Credit that is automatically renewable annually 23 shall (x) require the Issuing Bank that issued such Standby Letter of Credit to give the beneficiary named in such Standby Letter of Credit notice of any Notice of Termination, (y) permit such beneficiary, upon receipt of such notice, to draw under such Standby Letter of Credit prior to the date such Standby Letter of Credit otherwise would have been automatically renewed and (z) not permit the expiration date (after giving effect to any renewal) of such Standby Letter of Credit in any event to be extended to a date later than 60 days before the Termination Date. If either a Notice of Renewal is not given by the relevant Borrower or a Notice of Termination is given by the Issuing Bank pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, such Standby Letter of Credit shall expire on the date on which it otherwise would have been automatically renewed; provided, however, that even in the absence of receipt of a Notice of Renewal the Issuing Bank may in its discretion, unless instructed to the contrary by the Administrative Agent or the relevant Borrower, deem that a Notice of Renewal had been timely delivered and in such case, a Notice of Renewal shall be deemed to have been so delivered for all purposes under this Agreement. Each Existing Letter of Credit on the Effective Date shall be Letters of Credit for all purposes hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Within the limits of the Letter of Credit Facility, and subject to the limits referred to above, any Borrower (other than PI) may request the issuance of Letters of Credit under this Section 2.01(c), repay any Letter of Credit Advances resulting from drawings thereunder pursuant to Section 2.04(c) and request the issuance of additional Letters of Credit under this Section 2.01(c). SECTION 2.02. Making the Advances. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.02(b) or 2.03, each Borrowing (other than a Competitive Bid Borrowing) shall be made on notice, given not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, or the first Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Prime Rate Advances, by the relevant Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each respective Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a "Notice of Borrowing") shall be given by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Facility under which such Borrowing is to be made, (iii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iv) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (v) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, initial Interest Period and the currency for each such Advance. Each respective Lender shall, before 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds, such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfilment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at the Administrative Agent's address referred to in Section 9.02. (b) Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing, by Paxar to the Swing Line Bank and the Administrative Agent. Each such notice of a Swing Line Borrowing (a "Notice of Swing Line Borrowing") shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) amount of such Borrowing and (iii) interest rate to be applicable to the Advances comprising such 24 Borrowing (which interest rate shall either be the Prime Rate or such other interest rate as may be agreed upon by Paxar and the Swing Line Bank). The Swing Line Bank will make the amount thereof available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds. After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfilment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to Paxar at the Administrative Agent's address referred to in Section 9.02. Upon written demand by the Swing Line Bank, with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent, each other Lender shall purchase from the Swing Line Bank, and the Swing Line Bank shall sell and assign to each such other Lender, such other Lender's Pro Rata A Share of such outstanding Swing Line Advance as of the date of such demand, by making available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Bank, by deposit to the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds, an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Swing Line Advance to be purchased by such Lender. Each Lender agrees to purchase its Pro Rata A Share of an outstanding Swing Line Advance on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by the Swing Line Bank, provided notice of such demand is given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. Paxar hereby agrees to each such sale and assignment. Effective upon each such sale and assignment, each Swing Line Advance purchased by a Lender shall be, for all purposes under this Agreement, a Revolving Credit A Advance (which shall be a Prime Rate Advance). Upon any such assignment by the Swing Line Bank to any other Lender of a portion of a Swing Line Advance, the Swing Line Bank represents and warrants to such other Lender that the Swing Line Bank is the legal and beneficial owner of such interest being assigned by it, free and clear of any liens, but makes no other representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to such Swing Line Advance, the Loan Documents or any Loan Party. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Swing Line Advance available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by the Swing Line Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of the Swing Line Bank on any Business Day, the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Advance made by the Swing Line Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day. (c) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) a Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Rate Advances for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $10,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.09 or 2.13 and (ii) the Eurocurrency Rate Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than 10 separate Borrowings. (d) Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Swing Line Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the relevant Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the relevant Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfil on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), 25 cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the appropriate Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the appropriate Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the appropriate Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender's Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. (f) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing. SECTION 2.03. The Competitive Bid Advances. (a) Each Lender severally agrees that Paxar may make Competitive Bid Borrowings under this Section 2.03 from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the date occurring 30 days prior to the Termination Date in the manner set forth below; provided that, following the making of each Competitive Bid Borrowing, (x) the aggregate amount of the Competitive Bid Advances then outstanding shall not exceed $60,000,000 and (y) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit A Advances, the Revolving Credit B Advances, the Swing Line Advances, the Letter of Credit Advances and the Competitive Bid Advances then outstanding plus the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders. (i) Paxar may request a Competitive Bid Borrowing under this Section 2.03 by delivering to the Administrative Agent, by telecopier, a notice of a Competitive Bid Borrowing (a "Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing"), in substantially the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto, specifying therein the requested (v) date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, (w) aggregate amount of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, (x) in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of LIBO Rate Advances, the Interest Period for and the maturity date of such LIBO Rate Advance, or in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Fixed Rate Advances, 26 maturity date for repayment of each Fixed Rate Advance to be made as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing (which maturity date may not be earlier than the date occurring 7 days after the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing or later than the earlier of (I) 180 days after the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing and (II) the Termination Date), (y) interest payment date or dates relating thereto, and (z) other terms (if any) to be applicable to such Competitive Bid Borrowing, not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) (A) at least one Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if Paxar shall specify in the Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the rates of interest to be offered by the Lenders shall be fixed rates per annum (the Advances comprising any such Competitive Bid Borrowing being referred to herein as "Fixed Rate Advances") and (B) at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if Paxar shall instead specify in the Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the rates of interest be offered by the Lenders are to be based on the LIBO Rate (the Advances comprising such Competitive Bid Borrowing being referred to herein as "LIBO Rate Advances"). Each Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on Paxar. The Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify each Lender of each request for a Competitive Bid Borrowing received by it from Paxar by sending such Lender a copy of the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing. (ii) Each Lender may, if, in its sole discretion, it elects to do so, irrevocably offer to make one or more Competitive Bid Advances to Paxar as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing at a rate or rates of interest specified by such Lender in its sole discretion, by notifying the Administrative Agent (which shall give prompt notice thereof to Paxar), before 9:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Fixed Rate Advances and before 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) three Business Days before the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of LIBO Rate Advances, of the minimum amount and maximum amount of each Competitive Bid Advance which such Lender would be willing to make as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing (which amounts may, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 2.03(a), exceed such Lender's Commitment, if any), the rate or rates of interest therefor and such Lender's Applicable Lending Office with respect to such Competitive Bid Advance; provided that if the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender shall, in its sole discretion, elect to make any such offer, it shall notify Paxar of such offer at least 30 minutes before the time and on the date on which notice of such election is to be given to the Administrative Agent by the other Lenders. If any Lender shall elect not to make such an offer, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, before 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date on which notice of such election is to be given to the Administrative Agent by the other Lenders, and such Lender shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing; provided that the failure by any Lender to give such notice shall not cause such Lender to be obligated to make any Competitive Bid Advance as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing. 27 (iii) Paxar shall, in turn, before 10:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Fixed Rate Advances and before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) three Business Days before the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of LIBO Rate Advances, either: (x) cancel such Competitive Bid Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent notice to that effect, or (y) accept one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (ii) above, in its sole discretion, by giving notice to the Administrative Agent of the amount of each Competitive Bid Advance (which amount shall be equal to or greater than the minimum amount, and equal to or less than the maximum amount, notified to Paxar by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender for such Competitive Bid Advance pursuant to paragraph (ii) above) to be made by each Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, and reject any remaining offers made by Lenders pursuant to paragraph (ii) above by giving the Administrative Agent notice to that effect. Paxar shall accept the offers made by any Lender or Lenders to make Competitive Bid Advances in order of the lowest to the highest rates of interest offered by such Lenders. If two or more Lenders have offered the same interest rate, the amount to be borrowed at such interest rate will be allocated among such Lenders in proportion to the amount that each such Lender offered at such interest rate. (iv) If Paxar notifies the Administrative Agent that such Competitive Bid Borrowing is cancelled pursuant to paragraph (iii)(x) above, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders and such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall not be made. (v) If Paxar accepts one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y) above, the Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify (A) each Lender that has made an offer as described in paragraph (ii) above, of the date and aggregate amount of such Competitive Bid Borrowing and whether or not any offer or offers made by such Lender pursuant to paragraph (ii) above have been accepted by Paxar, (B) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, of the amount of each Competitive Bid Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, and (C) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, upon receipt, that the Administrative Agent has received forms of documents appearing to fulfil the applicable conditions set forth in Article III. Each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Advance as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall, before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing specified in the notice received from the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (A) of the preceding sentence or any later time when such Lender shall have received notice from the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (C) of the preceding sentence, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative 28 Agent's Account, in same day funds, such Lender's portion of such Competitive Bid Borrowing. Upon fulfilment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III and after receipt by the Administrative Agent of such funds, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to Paxar at the Administrative Agent's address referred to in Section 9.02. Promptly after each Competitive Bid Borrowing the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the amount of the Competitive Bid Borrowing and the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders after giving effect to such Competitive Bid Borrowing. (vi) If Paxar notifies the Administrative Agent that it accepts one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y) above, such notice of acceptance shall be irrevocable and binding on Paxar. Paxar shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfil on or before the date specified in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing for such Competitive Bid Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Competitive Bid Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing when such Competitive Bid Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. (b) Each Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and, following the making of each Competitive Bid Borrowing, the Borrowers shall be in compliance with the limitations set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of subsection (a) above. (c) Within the limits and on the conditions set forth in this Section 2.03, Paxar may from time to time borrow under this Section 2.03, repay or prepay pursuant to subsection (d) below, and reborrow under this Section 2.03, provided that a Competitive Bid Borrowing shall not be made within three Business Days of the date of any other Competitive Bid Borrowing. (d) Paxar shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender that has made a Competitive Bid Advance, on the maturity date of each Competitive Bid Advance (such maturity date being that specified by Paxar for repayment of such Competitive Bid Advance in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above and provided in the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance), the then unpaid principal amount of such Competitive Bid Advance. Paxar shall have no right to prepay any principal amount of any Competitive Bid Advance unless, and then only on the terms, specified by Paxar for such Competitive Bid Advance in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above and set forth in the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance. (e) Paxar shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Bid Advance from the date of such Competitive Bid Advance to the date the principal amount of such Competitive Bid Advance is repaid in full, at the rate of interest for such Competitive Bid Advance specified by the Lender making such Competitive Bid Advance in its notice with respect thereto delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(ii) above, payable on the interest payment date or dates specified by Paxar for such Competitive Bid Advance in the related Notice 29 of Competitive Bid Borrowing delivered pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above, as provided in the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid Advance.

Issuance of and Drawings and Reimbursement Under Letters of Credit. (a) Request for Issuance. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day prior to the date of the proposed issuance of such Letter of Credit, by the relevant Borrower to the Issuing Bank, which shall give to the Administrative Agent and each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier. Each such notice of issuance of a Letter of Credit (a "Notice of Issuance") shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier, specifying therein the requested (A) date of such issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (B) Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, (C) expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and (E) form of such Letter of Credit, and shall be accompanied by such application and agreement for letter of credit as the Issuing Bank may specify to such Borrower for use in connection with such requested Letter of Credit (a "Letter of Credit Agreement"). If (x) the requested form of such Letter of Credit is acceptable to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion and (y) it has not received written notice of objection to such issuance from the Required Lenders, the Issuing Bank will, upon fulfilment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, make such Letter of Credit available to the relevant Borrower at its office referred to in Section 9.02 or as otherwise agreed with such Borrower in connection with such issuance. In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. (b) Letter of Credit Reports. The Issuing Bank shall furnish (A) to the Administrative Agent and each Lender on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing issuance and expiration dates of Letters of Credit issued during the preceding month and drawings during such month under all Letters of Credit and (B) to the Administrative Agent and each Lender on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth the average daily aggregate Available Amount during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit. (c) Drawing and Reimbursement. The payment by the Issuing Bank of a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by the Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit Advance, which shall be a Prime Rate Advance, in the amount of such draft. Upon written demand 30 by the Issuing Bank, with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall purchase from the Issuing Bank, and the Issuing Bank shall sell and assign to each such Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata A Share of such outstanding Letter of Credit Advance as of the date of such purchase, by making available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank, by deposit to the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds, an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Letter of Credit Advance to be purchased by such Lender. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent shall transfer such funds to the Issuing Bank. Each Borrower hereby agrees to each such sale and assignment. Each Lender agrees to purchase its Pro Rata A Share of an outstanding Letter of Credit Advance on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by the Issuing Bank, provided notice of such demand is given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. Upon any such assignment by the Issuing Bank to any other Lender of a portion of a Letter of Credit Advance, the Issuing Bank represents and warrants to such other Lender that the Issuing Bank is the legal and beneficial owner of such interest being assigned by it, free and clear of any liens, but makes no other representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to such Letter of Credit Advance, the Loan Documents or any Loan Party. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Letter of Credit Advance available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by the Issuing Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for its account or the account of the Issuing Bank, as applicable. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of the Issuing Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Letter of Credit Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Letter of Credit Advance made by the Issuing Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day. (d) Failure to Make Letter of Credit Advances. The failure of any Lender to make the Letter of Credit Advance to be made by it on the date specified in Section 2.04(c) shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Letter of Credit Advance on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Letter of Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on such date. SECTION 2.05. Fees. (a) Revolving Credit Facility Fee. Paxar agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (other than the Designated Bidders) a facility fee on the aggregate amount of such Lender's respective Revolving Credit Commitment from the Effective Date in the case of each Initial Lender and from the later of the Effective Date and the effective date specified in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing March 31, 2006, and on the Termination Date. (b) Letter of Credit Fees, Etc.

(ii) Paxar shall pay to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, such commissions, issuance fees, fronting fees, transfer fees and other fees and charges in connection with the issuance or administration of each Letter of Credit as Paxar and the Issuing Bank shall agree. (c) Administrative Agent's Fees. Paxar shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between Paxar and the Administrative Agent. SECTION 2.06. Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. Paxar shall have the right, upon at least five Business Days' notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the Unused Revolving Credit A Commitments or the Unused Revolving Credit B Commitments of the respective Lenders, provided that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and provided further that the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than an amount equal to the sum of (x) the aggregate principal amount of the Competitive Bid Advances then outstanding and (y) the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding, and provided, that in the event of the reduction of the Unused Revolving Credit B Commitments, the Revolving Credit A Commitment of each PI Lender shall be increased by an amount equivalent to the reduction of its Revolving Credit B Commitment, and Schedule II hereto shall be appropriately amended to reflect such reduction and increase. SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Advances. (a) Revolving Credit Advances. Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders on the Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advances by such Borrower then outstanding. In the event any Revolving Credit B Advance is not paid when due, upon written demand by any PI Lender, with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent, each other Lender shall purchase from such PI Lender, and such PI Lender shall sell and assign to each such other Lender, such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of such outstanding Revolving Credit B Advance as of the date of such demand, by making available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of such PI Lender, by deposit to the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds, an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Credit B Advance to be purchased by such Lender. PI hereby agrees to each such sale and assignment. Upon any such assignment by such PI Lender to any other Lender of a portion of a Revolving Credit B Advance, such PI Lender represents and warrants to such other Lender 32 that such PI Lender is the legal and beneficial owner of such interest being assigned by it, free and clear of any liens, but makes no other representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to such Revolving Credit B Advance, the Loan Documents or any Loan Party. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Revolving Credit B Advance available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by such PI Lender until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of such PI Lender on any Business Day, the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit B Advance made by such PI Lender shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day. (b) Swing Line Advances. Paxar shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Bank and each other Lender that has made a Swing Line Advance the outstanding principal amount of each Swing Line Advance made by each of them on the earliest of (i) the date repayment is demanded by the Swing Line Bank, (ii) 60 days after such Swing Line Advance is made and (iii) the Termination Date. (c) Letter of Credit Advances. (i) The relevant Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank and each other Lender that has made a Letter of Credit Advance on the earlier of demand and the Termination Date the outstanding principal amount of each Letter of Credit Advance made by each of them. (ii) The Obligations of each Borrower under this Agreement, any Letter of Credit Agreement and any other agreement or instrument relating to any Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letter of Credit Agreement and such other agreement or instrument under all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following circumstances (it being understood that any such payment by a Borrower is without prejudice to, and does not constitute a waiver of, any rights such Borrower might have or might acquire as a result of the payment by the Issuing Bank of any draft or the reimbursement by such Borrower thereof): (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document, any Letter of Credit Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (all of the foregoing being, collectively, the "L/C Related Documents"); (B) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations of any Borrower in respect of any L/C Related Document or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C Related Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that a Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the L/C Related Documents or any unrelated transaction; 33 (D) any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (E) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (F) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Guaranty, the Subsidiary Guaranty or any other guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations of a Borrower in respect of the L/C Related Documents; or (G) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a Borrower or a guarantor. SECTION 2.08. Interest. (a) Scheduled Interest. Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance (other than Competitive Bid Advances or Swing Line Advances that are not Prime Rate Advances) owing to each Lender by such Borrower from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum: (i) Prime Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Prime Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Prime Rate in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Prime Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full. (ii) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (x) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect on the first day of such Interest Period plus (z) the Additional Cost Rate, if any, and any other amount payable pursuant to Section 2.08(d), payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full. (b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Borrower shall pay interest on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Advance (other than a Competitive Bid Advance) owing to each Lender by such Borrower, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not 34 paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Prime Rate Advances pursuant to clause (a)(i) above. (c) Additional Interest on Eurocurrency Rate Advances. Each Borrower shall pay to each Lender, so long as and to the extent such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Advance of such Lender, from the date of such Eurocurrency Rate Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (a) the Eurocurrency Rate for the applicable Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advance from (b) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurocurrency Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is otherwise payable on such Eurocurrency Rate Advance. Such Lender shall as soon as practicable provide notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers of any such additional interest arising in connection with any such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, which notice shall be conclusive and binding, absent manifest error. (d) Additional Reserve Costs. (i) If and so long as any Lender is required to make special deposits with the Financial Services Authority or the Bank of England or to maintain reserve asset ratios or pay fees (other than deposits or reserves reflected in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate), in each case in respect of any of such Lender's Advances denominated in the Primary Currency, such Lender may require the respective Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on such Advances, additional interest on such Advances at a rate per annum equal to the Additional Cost Rate, as defined in (and calculated in accordance with the formula and in the manner set forth in) Schedule 2.08. (ii) If and so long as any Lender lending from a branch or office located in a Participating Member State is required to comply with reserve assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements imposed by the European Central Bank or the European System of Central Banks (but excluding requirements reflected in the Additional Cost Rate) in respect of any of such Lender's Advances denominated in the Primary Currency, such Lender may require the respective Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on such Advances, additional interest on such Advances at a rate per annum determined by such Lender to be the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements in relation to such Advances. (iii) Any additional interest owed pursuant to paragraph (i) or (ii) above shall be determined by the relevant Lender, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and notified to the respective Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least five Business Days before each date of which interest is payable for the relevant Advances, and such additional interest so notified to such Borrower by such Lender shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Advances. 35 (e) Limitation on Interest. In no event shall the interest rate as determined in subsections (a), (b) or (c) above exceed the limits set forth in any applicable national usury laws. Should any such usury law limit be exceeded at any time in respect of any Advance, the applicable interest rate hereunder for such Advance shall be deemed automatically reduced to the maximum interest rate permitted under the applicable national usury law for such period of time as needed to comply with such usury law. SECTION 2.09. Interest Rate Determination. (a) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrowers and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.08(a)(i) or (ii). (b) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Required Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrowers and the Lenders, whereupon (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in US Dollars, Convert into Prime Rate Advances and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in a Primary Currency, be exchanged for an Equivalent amount of US Dollars and converted into Prime Rate Advances, and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Revolving Credit Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. (c) If a Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of "Interest Period" in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify such Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in US Dollars, Convert into Prime Rate Advances and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in a Primary Currency, be exchanged for an Equivalent amount of US Dollars and Converted into Prime Rate Advances. (d) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurocurrency Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $1,000,000, such Advances shall automatically (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in US Dollars, Convert into Prime Rate Advances and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in a Primary Currency, be exchanged for an Equivalent amount of US Dollars and Converted into Prime Rate Advances. (e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in US Dollars, Convert into Prime Rate Advances and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in a Primary Currency, be exchanged for an Equivalent amount of US Dollars and Converted into Prime Rate Advances and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended. 36 SECTION 2.10. Conversion of Advances. Each Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.09 and 2.13, Convert all Advances owing by such Borrower (other than Competitive Bid Advances) of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances (other than Competitive Bid Advances) of the other Type, so long as, after giving effect to any such Conversion, each such Borrowing is comprised of Advances denominated in the same currency and, in the case of any Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, having the same Interest Period; provided, however, that (w) no Eurocurrency Rate Advances of one currency shall be Converted into Eurocurrency Rate Advances of another currency, (x) any Conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Prime Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (y) any Conversion of Prime Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(c) and (z) no Conversion of any such Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(c). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the currency of and the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the relevant Borrower. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, the aggregate amount of any Primary Currency Advances then outstanding shall be converted into the Equivalent in US Dollars as determined on the date of such Default SECTION 2.11. Prepayments. (a) Optional. Each Borrower may, upon at least one Business Day's notice in the case of Prime Rate Advances and three Business Days' notice in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, in each case to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing by such Borrower and comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or the Equivalent thereof in the Primary Currency in which such Revolving Credit Borrowing is denominated, determined on the date the related notice of prepayment is given) and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c). (b) Mandatory. (i) Paxar shall, on each and any Business Day that (A) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of (u) the Revolving Credit Advances denominated in US Dollars, plus (v) the Equivalent on such day of the Revolving Credit Advances denominated in the Primary Currency, plus (w) the Letter of Credit Advances, plus (x) the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding, plus (y) the Swing Line Advances plus (z) the Competitive Bid Advances then outstanding exceeds (B) the amount equal to 103% of the Revolving Credit Facility, prepay an aggregate principal amount of the 37 Revolving Credit Advances comprising part of the same Borrowings, the Letter of Credit Advances and the Swing Line Advances in an amount equal to such excess. (ii) Prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility made pursuant to clause (i) above shall be first applied to prepay Letter of Credit Advances then outstanding until such Advances are paid in full, second applied to prepay Swing Line Advances then outstanding until such Advances are paid in full and third applied ratably to prepay Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding comprising part of the same Borrowings until such Advances are paid in full. (iii) All prepayments under this subsection (b) shall be made together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid. SECTION 2.12. Increased Costs. (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority, including, without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender Party of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.12 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.15 shall govern) and (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender Party is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or Lending Installation or any political subdivision thereof), then Paxar shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to Paxar and the Administrative Agent by such Lender Party, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (b) If any Lender Party determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender Party or any corporation controlling such Lender Party and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender Party's commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder and other commitments of this type or the issuance or maintenance of, or participation in, the Letters of Credit (or similar contingent obligations), then, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), Paxar shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender Party's commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder or to the issuance or maintenance of, or participation in, any Letters of Credit. A certificate as to such amounts 38 submitted to Paxar and the Administrative Agent by such Lender Party shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. SECTION 2.13. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office or Lending Installation to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances hereunder, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance or LIBO Rate Advance, as the case may be, will automatically, upon such demand, be exchanged for an Equivalent amount of US Dollars and Converted into a Prime Rate Advance or an Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.08(a)(i), as the case may be, and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances or to Convert Prime Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify Paxar and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. SECTION 2.14. Payments and Computations. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder and under the Notes not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the day when due in like funds as advanced to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or facility or Letter of Credit fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.12, 2.15 or 9.04(c)) to the Lender Parties for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender Party to such Lender Party for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(g), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender Party assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. (b) Each Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender Party, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender Party is not made when due hereunder or under any Note held by such Lender Party, to charge from time to time against any or all of such Borrower's accounts with such Lender Party any amount so due. (c) All computations of interest based on the Prime Rate (unless based upon the Federal Funds Rate) shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of facility and Letter of Credit fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for 39 which such interest or facility fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or facility or Letter of Credit fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances or LIBO Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender Party hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender Party on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender Party. If and to the extent a Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender Party shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender Party together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender Party until the date such Lender Party repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. SECTION 2.15. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by a Borrower hereunder or under the Notes shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.14, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender Party and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of overall net income taxes, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender Party, taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of overall net income taxes, by the jurisdiction of such Lender Party's Applicable Lending Office or Lending Installation or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If a Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note to any Lender Party or the Administrative Agent including, but without limitation, as a result of any change in law or in its official interpretation or administration by the competent tax authorities, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. 40 (b) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes"). (c) Each Borrower shall indemnify each Lender Party and the Administrative Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.15) imposed on or paid by such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the relevant Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the Notes by or on behalf of a Borrower through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of a Borrower by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Borrower determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this subsection (d) and subsection (e), the terms "United States" and "United States person" shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. (e) Each Lender Party organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender or the Initial Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender Party in the case of each other Lender Party, and from time to time thereafter as requested in writing by a Borrower (but only so long as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender Party is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes. If the form provided by a Lender Party at the time such Lender Party first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender Party provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender Party assignee becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender Party assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with 41 respect to the Lender Party assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, that the applicable Lender Party reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender Party, if legally required to do so, shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender Party required to do so has failed to provide a Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section 2.15(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided, or if such form otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.15(a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender Party become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist the Lender Party to recover such Taxes. SECTION 2.16. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender Party shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of obligations owing to such Lender Party hereunder and under the Notes in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Obligations owing to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all the Lender Parties at such time, such Lender Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Lender Parties such participations in the Obligations owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender Party to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender Party, such purchase from each Lender Party shall be rescinded and such Lender Party shall repay to the purchasing Lender Party the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender Party's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender Party's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender Party in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender Party so purchasing a participation from another Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender Party were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. SECTION 2.17. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and Paxar agrees that it and any other Borrower shall use such proceeds) solely to refinance the Existing Credit Agreement and for general corporate purposes of Paxar and its Subsidiaries. SECTION 2.18. Increase in the Aggregate Commitments. (a) Paxar may, at any time, by notice to the Administrative Agent no more frequently than once in any 12-month period, request that the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit A Commitments be increased by an amount of $25,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (each a "Commitment Increase") to be effective as of a date that is at least 180 days prior to the Termination Date (the "Increase 42 Date") as specified in the related notice to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of the Commitments hereunder at any time exceed $250,000,000, (ii) no Event of Default, or event that with the giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date of such request or as of the applicable Increase Date, or shall occur as a result thereof and (iii) that any request for a Commitment Increase which includes an increase to the amounts available hereunder for Borrowings or Letters of Credit for any Non-US Borrower shall require the consent of the Required Lenders. (b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of a request by Paxar for a Commitment Increase, which notice shall include (i) the proposed amount of such requested Commitment Increase, (ii) the proposed Increase Date and (iii) the date by which Lenders wishing to participate in the Commitment Increase must commit to an increase in the amount of their respective Revolving Credit A Commitments (the "Commitment Date"). Each Lender that is willing to participate in such requested Commitment Increase (each an "Increasing Lender") shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Commitment Date of the amount by which it is willing to increase its Revolving Credit A Commitment. If the Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that they are willing to increase the amount of their respective Revolving Credit A Commitments by an aggregate amount that exceeds the amount of the requested Commitment Increase, the requested Commitment Increase shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders willing to participate therein according to the amounts that the Lenders have indicated they are willing to increase their Revolving Credit A Commitments. (c) Promptly following each Commitment Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify Paxar as to the amount, if any, by which the Lenders are willing to participate in the requested Commitment Increase. If the aggregate amount by which the Lenders are willing to participate in any requested Commitment Increase on any such Commitment Date is less than the requested Commitment Increase, then Paxar may extend offers to one or more Eligible Assignees to participate in any portion of the requested Commitment Increase that has not been committed to by the Lenders as of the applicable Commitment Date; provided, however, that the Commitment of each such Eligible Assignee shall be in an amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Non-US Borrower's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Non-US Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party under the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Loan Party. Each of the Non-US Borrowers, and by its acceptance of this Cross-Guaranty, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lender Parties, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Cross-Guaranty and the obligations of each of the Non-US Borrowers hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the United States Federal Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Act or any similar federal or state law or similar law in any applicable jurisdiction outside the United States covering the protection of creditors' rights or the relief of debtors to the extent applicable to this Cross-Guaranty and the obligations of each of the Non-US Borrowers hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each of the Non-US Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lender Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations and all of the other liabilities of each of the Non-US Borrowers under this Cross-Guaranty shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all of the other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Non-US Borrower that are relevant thereunder, and after giving effect to any collections from, any rights to receive contributions from, or any payments made by or on behalf of, any of the other Non-US Borrowers in respect of the obligations of such other Non-US Borrower under this Cross-Guaranty, result in the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations and all of the other liabilities of each of the Non-US Borrowers under this Cross-Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. (b) Cross-Guaranty Absolute. Each Non-US Borrower guarantees that the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the 67 rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party with respect thereto. The Obligations of each Non-US Borrower under this Cross-Guaranty are independent of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Non-US Borrower to enforce this Cross-Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any other Loan Party or whether any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Non-US Borrower under this Cross-Guaranty shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of, and such Non-US Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any and all of the following: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document (including, without limitation, any increase in the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise); (iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guarantee for all or any of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any other Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries; (v) any failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party to disclose to any Loan Party any information relating to the financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party, as the case may be; or (vi) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party) that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, such Non-US Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety. This Cross-Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party or by any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. (c) Waivers and Acknowledgments. (i) Each Non-US Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations and this Cross-Guaranty, and any requirement that the Administrative 68 Agent or any Lender Party exhaust any right or take any action against any other Loan Party or any other Person or any collateral. (ii) Each Non-US Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party to disclose to such Non-US Borrower any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operation or condition of any other Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or its property and assets now or hereafter known by the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party. (iii) Each Non-US Borrower hereby unconditionally waives any right to revoke this Cross-Guaranty, and acknowledges that this Cross-Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Cross-Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future. (iv) Each Non-US Borrower acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in this Section 8.02(c) are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. (d) Subrogation. Each Non-US Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or may hereafter acquire against any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of its Obligations under this Cross-Guaranty or under any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against such other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from such other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, until such time as all of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Cross-Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, all of the Letters of Credit shall have expired, terminated or been cancelled and the Commitments shall have expired or terminated. If any amount shall be paid to such Non-US Borrower in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the latest of (a) the payment in full in cash of all of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Cross-Guaranty, (b) the full drawing, termination, expiration or cancellation of all Letters of Credit and (c) the Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Cross-Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as collateral for any Cross-Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Cross-Guaranty thereafter arising. If (i) such Non-US Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent all or any part of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Cross-Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, (iii) all of the Letters of Credit shall have expired, terminated or been cancelled, and (iv) the Termination Date shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties will, at such Non-US Borrower's request and expense, execute and deliver 69 to such Non-US Borrower appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer of subrogation to such Non-US Borrower of an interest in the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the payment made by such Non-US Borrower. (e) Continuing Guarantee; Assignments. This Cross-Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until (subject to reinstatement pursuant to Section 8.02(b)) the latest of (A) the payment in full in cash of all of the Cross-Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Cross-Guaranty, (B) the full drawing, termination, expiration or cancellation of all Letters of Credit, and (C) the Termination Date, (ii) be binding upon each Non-US Borrower and its respective successors and assigns and (iii) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, any Lender Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitment or Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Notes held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender Party under this Section 8.02 or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 9.07. SECTION 8.03. Subordination. Each of PBV and PHK (individually, a "Subordinated Creditor" and collectively, the "Subordinated Creditors") hereby subordinates any and all debts, liabilities and other obligations owed to such Subordinated Creditor by any Subsidiary of Paxar (the "Subordinated Obligations") to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 8.03: (a) Prohibited Payments, Etc. Except during the continuance of a Default, each Subordinated Creditor may receive regularly scheduled payments from any Subsidiary of Paxar on account of the Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, however, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, neither Subordinated Creditor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations. (b) Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. In any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding relating to any such Subsidiary, each Subordinated Creditor agrees that the Lender Parties shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Obligations of the Lender Parties under the Loan Documents (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of any such proceeding, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding ("Post Petition Interest")) before such Subsidiary Creditor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations. (c) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, each Subordinated Creditor shall, if the Administrative Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Lender Parties and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations of the Loan Parties under the 70 Loan Documents (including all Post Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer. (d) Administrative Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, the Administrative Agent is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in the name of each Subordinated Creditor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents (including any and all Post Petition Interest), and (ii) to require each Subordinated Creditor (A) to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and (B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents (including any and all Post Petition Interest).

The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. SECTION 9.04. Costs and Expenses. (a) Paxar agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of this Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, (A) all due diligence, syndication (including printing, distribution and bank meetings), transportation, computer, duplication, appraisal, consultant, and audit expenses and (B) the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto (including local counsel) and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent as to its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement.

In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 9.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by Paxar, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person or any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Paxar also agrees not to assert any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Lender Party, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Notes, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances.

SECTION 9.05. Right of Set-off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender Party and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at 74 any time owing by such Lender Party or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of a Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Notes held by such Lender Party, whether or not such Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender Party agrees promptly to notify the relevant Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender Party and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender Party and its Affiliates may have. SECTION 9.06. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective as provided in Section 3.01 and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lender Parties.

Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (I) the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to consent to an assignment hereunder until it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assignment to such assignee Lender and (II) an assignment will only be effective after performance by the Administrative Agent of all "know your customer" or 75 other checks relating to any person that it is required to carry out in relation to such assignment to an assignee Lender, the completion of which the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify to the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender. (b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or the performance or observance by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 or Section 5.01(o) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender 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; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. (c) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to Paxar. Within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrowers, at Paxar's own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note a new Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Lender has retained a Commitment hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 or A-2 hereto, as the case may be. (d) Each Lender (other than the Designated Bidders) may designate one or more banks or other entities to have a right to make Competitive Bid Advances as a Lender pursuant to Section 2.03; provided, however, that (i) no such Lender 76 shall be entitled to make more than one such designation, (ii) each such Lender making one or more of such designations shall retain the right to make Competitive Bid Advances as a Lender pursuant to Section 2.03, (iii) each such designation shall be to a Designated Bidder and (iv) the parties to each such designation shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, a Designation Agreement. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Designation Agreement, the designee thereunder shall be a party hereto with a right to make Competitive Bid Advances as a Lender pursuant to Section 2.03 and the obligations related thereto. (e) By executing and delivering a Designation Agreement, the Lender making the designation thereunder and its designee thereunder confirm and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or the performance or observance by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such designee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Designation Agreement; (iv) such designee will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such designating Lender 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; (v) such designee confirms that it is a Designated Bidder; (vi) such designee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such designee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. (f) Upon its receipt of a Designation Agreement executed by a designating Lender and a designee representing that it is a Designated Bidder, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Designation Agreement has been completed and is substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, (i) accept such Designation Agreement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to Paxar. (g) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and each Designation Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lender Parties and, with respect to Lender Parties other than Designated Bidders, the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Advances owing to, each Lender Party from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, 77 absent manifest error, and each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender Party hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or any Lender Party at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (h) The Issuing Bank may assign to an Eligible Assignee all of its rights and obligations under the undrawn portion of its Letter of Credit Commitment at any time; provided, however, that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that immediately prior to such assignment was an Issuing Bank or an assignment of all of an Issuing Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Letter of Credit Commitment of the assigning Issuing Bank being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than the undrawn portion of the Letter of Credit Commitment at such time, (ii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee and (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. (i) Each Lender Party may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than Paxar or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender Party's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender Party shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender Party shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender Party in connection with such Lender Party's rights and obligations under this Agreement and (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Note or any other Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. (j) Any Lender Party may, in connection with any assignment, designation or participation or proposed assignment, designation or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee, designee or participant or proposed assignee, designee or participant, any information relating to the Borrowers or any other Loan Party furnished to such Lender Party by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee, designee or participant or proposed assignee, designee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information relating to the Borrowers received by it from such Lender. 78 (k) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender Party may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. SECTION 9.08. Confidentiality. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender Party shall disclose any Confidential Information to any other Person without the consent of Paxar, other than (a) to the Administrative Agent's or such Lender Party's Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors and, as contemplated by Section 9.07(j), to actual or prospective assignees and participants, and then only on a confidential basis, (b) as required by any law, rule or regulation or judicial process, (c) to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information relating to any Borrower received by it from such Lender, (d) as requested or required by any state, federal or foreign authority or examiner regulating banks or banking, (e) to any other Lender Party and (f) in connection with the exercise of any remedies by such Lender Party as set forth in the Loan Documents. SECTION 9.09. No Liability of the Issuing Bank. Each Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither the Issuing Bank nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by the Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the relevant Borrower shall have a claim against the Issuing Bank, and the Issuing Bank shall be liable to such Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such Borrower that such Borrower proves were caused by (i) the Issuing Bank's willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit issued on account of such Borrower comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit or (ii) the Issuing Bank's willful failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit issued on account of such Borrower after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary. SECTION 9.10. Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. SECTION 9.11. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an 79 original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. SECTION 9.12. Judgment. (a) Rate of Exchange. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder (including, without limitation, under Article VIII) or under any Note or Notes in another currency into US Dollars or into a Primary Currency, as the case may be, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, a Lender Party could purchase such other currency with US Dollars or with a Primary Currency, as the case may be, in New York City, New York at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given, together with any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with such purchase. (b) Indemnity. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party hereunder or under any Note or Notes shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than US Dollars or a Primary Currency, as the case may be, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day next succeeding receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase US Dollars or such Primary Currency, as the case may be, with such other currency. If the US Dollars or such Primary Currency so purchased are less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party in US Dollars or in such Primary Currency, each Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party against such loss, and if the US Dollars or such Primary Currency so purchased exceed the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party in US Dollars or in such Primary Currency, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party agrees to remit to such Borrower such excess. SECTION 9.13. Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each Borrower further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties thereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Borrower at its address specified pursuant to Section 9.02 or in the Credit Agreement Supplement. Each Borrower (other than Paxar) hereby further agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding brought in any such New York state court or in any such federal court may be made upon Paxar at its address specified in Section 9.02, and each Borrower (other than Paxar) hereby irrevocably appoints Paxar as its authorized agent to accept such service of process, and hereby irrevocably agrees that the failure of Paxar to give any notice of such service to such Borrower shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any 80 judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Notes in the courts of any jurisdiction. (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. (c) To the extent that any Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, such Borrower hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and the Notes and the other Loan Documents. SECTION 9.14. Know Your Customer Rules. If the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or regulation made after the date of this Agreement; any change in the status of a Loan Party after the date of this Agreement; or a proposed assignment or transfer by a Lender of any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to a party that is not a Lender prior to such assignment or transfer, obliges the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or, in the case of Section 9.07 above, any prospective new Lender) to comply with "know your customer" or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, each Loan Party shall promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (for itself or on behalf of any Lender) or any Lender (for itself or on behalf of any prospective new Lender) or in order for the Administrative Agent, such Lender or any prospective new Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents. Each Lender shall promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (for itself) in order for the Administrative Agent to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents.

The mandatory cost ("Mandatory Cost") is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank. 2. On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the "Additional Cost Rate") for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders' Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Advance) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum. 3. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from an Applicable Lending Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender's participation in all Advances made from that Applicable Lending Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Applicable Lending Office. 4. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from an Applicable Lending Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows: E x 0.001 --------- per cent. per annum 300 Where: E is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the most recent rate of charge of the Reference Office pursuant to paragraph 6 below and expressed in pounds per (pound)1,000,000. 5. For the purposes of this Schedule: (a) "Eligible Liabilities" and "Special Deposits" have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England; (b) "Fees Rules" means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits; Schedule 2.08 1 (c) "Fee Tariffs" means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring the minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); (d) "Reference Office" means the principal London office of the Administrative Agent. (e) "Tariff Base" has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules. 6. The rate of charge (the "Rate of Charge") payable by the Reference Office shall be the rate of charge payable by the Reference Office to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by the Reference Office as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to the Reference Office for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per (pound)1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of the Reference Office 7. Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender: (a) the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office; and (b) any other information the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

("ABN"), as Initial Issuing Bank, ABN as the Swing Line Bank, SunTrust Bank and The Bank of New York, as Co-Syndication Agents, HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as Documentation Agent, and ABN as Administrative Agent for said Lender Parties. I have acted as Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel of the Company since 1997. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall leave the same meaning as in the Credit Agreement. In rendering this opinion, I have reviewed originals or copies of the Loan Documents and have made such legal and factual examinations and inquiries, including an examination of originals or copies identified to my satisfaction as true copies, of such corporate records, agreements, instruments and other documents as I have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purpose of this opinion. I am admitted to practice in the states of New York and _______________ and express no opinion on the laws of any other jurisdiction or on any matters governed by such laws, except for the federal law of the United States of America and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. For purposes of this opinion, I have assumed: (i) the genuineness of all signatures, (ii) the authenticity of the originals of the documents submitted to me, EXHIBIT E 1 (iii) the conformity to authentic originals of any documents submitted to me as copies, (iv) that: (a) each Non-US Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in its jurisdiction of organization, (b) each Non-US Borrower has full power to execute, deliver and perform, and has duly executed and delivered the Loan Documents to which it is a party, (c) the execution, delivery and performance by each Non-US Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action and do not (I) contravene its charter or by-laws or other organizational documents (II) violate any applicable law (other than the laws of the State of New York and federal laws of the United States of America), order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award or (III) conflict with or result in the breach of or constitute a default under any contract, loan agreement, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease or other instrument binding on or affecting it, (d) except with respect to the laws of the State of New York and federal laws of the United States of America, no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for (I) the due execution, delivery and performance by each Non-US Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party or for the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby or (II) the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party of its rights under the Loan Documents. Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations set forth herein, it is my opinion that: 1. Each of Paxar and each Subsidiary Guarantor (each an "Opinion Party," and collectively, the "Opinion Parties") is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation in each other jurisdiction in which it owns or leases property or in which the conduct of its business requires it to so qualify or be licensed except where the failure to so qualify or be licensed is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on its business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects. 2. The execution, delivery and performance by each Opinion Party of the each Loan Document to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are within such Opinion Party's corporate powers, have been duly authorized by EXHIBIT E 2 all necessary corporate action, and do not (a) contravene such Opinion Party's charter or bylaws, (b) violate any law (including, without limitation, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Chapter of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970), rule, regulation (including, without limitation, Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award listed in the Certificate, (c) conflict with or result in the breach of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument binding on it (d) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any of the properties of any Opinion Party or any of its Subsidiaries. 3. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body, or any third party that is party to any of the agreements and instruments listed in the Certificate, is required for (a) the due execution, delivery, filing or performance by any Opinion Party of any Loan Document to which it is a party, or for the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, or (b) the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party of its rights under the Loan Documents except for the authorizations, approvals, actions, notices and filings listed on Schedule 4.01(c) to the Credit Agreement, all of which have been duly obtained, taken, given or made and are in full force and effect. 4. To the best of my knowledge, there is no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding affecting any Loan Party pending or threatened before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator that (a) would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of such Loan Party or (b) purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any Note, any other Loan Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. 5. Each Opinion Party has duly executed and delivered each Loan Document to which it is a party. Each Loan Document is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party thereto, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its respective terms. The opinion in paragraph 5 above is subject to (a) the effect of applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws relating to creditor rights' generally and (b) limitations on the availability of equitable relief.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT. The Lender Parties and ABN AMRO Bank N.V., as Administrative Agent for the Lender Parties, are parties to a Credit Agreement dated as of November __, 2005 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"; capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein are used herein as therein defined) with Paxar Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Paxar"), and certain Subsidiaries of Paxar. Each of the Guarantors may receive a portion of the proceeds of the Advances under the Credit Agreement and will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. It is a condition precedent to the making of Advances and the issuance of Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement that each of the Guarantors shall have executed and delivered this Guaranty. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order to induce the Lender Parties to make Advances and to issue Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement from time to time, each of the Guarantors hereby agrees as follows: Section 1. Guaranty; Limitation of Liability. (a) Each of the Guarantors hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (such Obligations being the "Guaranteed Obligations"), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party under the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving any Borrower. (b) Each of the Guarantors, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lender Parties, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the United States Federal Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Act or any similar federal or state law or similar law in any applicable jurisdiction outside the United States covering the protection of creditors' rights or the relief of debtors to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each of the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lender Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Guaranteed Obligations and all of the other liabilities of each of the Guarantors under this Guaranty shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all of the other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant thereunder, and after giving effect to any collections from, any rights to receive contributions from, or any payments made by or on behalf of, any of the other Guarantors in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Guaranty, result in the Guaranteed Obligations and all of the other liabilities of each of the Guarantors under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer of conveyance. EXHIBIT F 1 Section 2. Guaranty Absolute. Each of the Guarantors guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party with respect thereto. The Obligations of each of the Guarantors under this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any of the Guarantors to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Borrower or any other Loan Party or whether any Borrower or any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each of the Guarantors under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any or all of the following: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to Paxar or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise; (c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (d) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under the Loan Documents or any other assets of Paxar or any of its Subsidiaries; (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Paxar or any of its Subsidiaries; EXHIBIT F 2 (f) any failure of any Lender Party to disclose to Paxar or any of the Guarantors any information relating to the financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of any Loan Party now or in the future known to any Lender Party (each of the Guarantors waiving any duty on the part of the Lender Parties to disclose such information); or (g) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any of the Borrowers, any of the Guarantors or any other guarantor or surety. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Lender Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Section 3. Waivers and Acknowledgments. (a) Each of the Guarantors hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Borrowers or any other Person or any Collateral. (b) Each of the Guarantors hereby waives any right to revoke this Guaranty, and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future. (c) Each of the Guarantors acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in this Section 3 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Section 4. Subrogation. Each of the Guarantors will not exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Borrower or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor's Obligations under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party against any Borrower or any other insider guarantor or any collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Borrower or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, and the Commitments shall have expired or terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any of the Guarantors in violation of the preceding sentence at any time prior to the later of the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and the Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall be paid in full in cash and (iii) the Termination Date shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties will, at such Guarantor's request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by such Guarantor. EXHIBIT F 3 Section 5. Payments Free and Clear of Taxes, Etc. (a) Any and all payments made by any Guarantor hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If any Guarantor shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Guarantor shall make such deductions and (iii) such Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, each of the Guarantors agrees to pay any present or future Other Taxes. (c) Each of the Guarantors will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes by or on behalf of any of the Guarantors, such Guarantor will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in the Credit Agreement, the original receipt of payment thereof or a certified copy of such receipt. In the case of any payment hereunder by or on behalf of any Guarantor through an account or branch outside the United States or on behalf of any Guarantor by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Guarantor determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Guarantor shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this subsection (d) and subsection (e), the terms "United States" and "United States person" shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. EXHIBIT F 4 (e) Upon the reasonable request in writing of any Guarantor, each Lender Party organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender or Initial Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance or other agreement pursuant to which it became a Lender Party in the case of each other Lender Party, and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request in writing by any Guarantor (but only so long thereafter as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide the Administrative Agent and such Guarantor with Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W 8BECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender Party is exempt from or is entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments under the Credit Agreement or the Notes. If the form provided by a Lender Party at the time such Lender Party first becomes a party to the Credit Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender Party provides the appropriate form certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender Party assignee becomes a party to the Credit Agreement, the Lender Party assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender Party assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) and requested by any Guarantor pursuant to this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W 8BECI, that any Lender Party reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender Party shall give notice thereof to such Guarantor and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender Party required to do so has failed to provide any Guarantor following such Guarantor's request therefor pursuant to subsection (e) above with the appropriate form described in subsection (e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring after the date on which a form originally was required to be provided or if such form otherwise is not required under subsection (e)), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided, however, that should a Lender Party become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, each of the Guarantors shall take such steps as such Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist such Lender Party to recover such Taxes. (g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of each of the Guarantors hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the agreements and obligations of each of the Guarantors contained in this Section 5 shall survive the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty. EXHIBIT F 5 Section 6. Representations and Warranties. Each of the Guarantors hereby represents and warrants to each of the Lender Parties as follows: (a) There are no conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty that have not been satisfied or waived. (b) Such Guarantor has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Guaranty, and such Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from any other Loan Parties on a continuing basis information pertaining to, and is now and on a continuing basis will be completely familiar with, the financial condition, operations, properties and prospects of such other Loan Parties. (c) Such Guarantor is, individually and together with its Subsidiaries, Solvent. Section 7. Confirmation of Certain Provisions of the Credit Agreement. Each of the Guarantors hereby confirms and agrees that so long as any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding, or any Lender Party shall have any Commitment, such Guarantor will perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and agreements set forth in the Loan Documents to be performed or observed by such Guarantor or that Paxar has agreed to cause such Guarantor to perform or observe. Section 8. Amendments; Supplements, Etc. (a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty and no consent to any departure by any of the Guarantors therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all of the Lender Parties, (i) limit, reduce or terminate the liability of any of the Guarantors hereunder, (ii) postpone any date fixed for payment hereunder or (iii) change the number of Lender Parties required to take any action hereunder. (b) Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a supplement to this Guaranty pursuant to Section 5.01(m) of the Credit Agreement, in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (each a "Guaranty Supplement"), such Person shall be referred to as an "Additional Guarantor" and shall be and become a Guarantor, and each reference in this Guaranty to a "Guarantor" shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor and each reference in any other Loan Document to a "Guarantor" or a "Loan Party" shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor. Section 9. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecopy communication) and mailed, telecopied or delivered to it, if to any Initial Guarantor, addressed to it at its address set forth below its name on the signature pages hereto, if to any Additional Guarantor, at its address set forth below its name on the signature page to the Guaranty Supplement executed and delivered by it, if to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party, at its address specified in the Credit Agreement, or as to any party at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. All such notices and other communications shall, when mailed or telecopied, be effective when deposited in the mails or transmitted by telecopier, respectively. EXHIBIT F 6 Section 10. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Section 11. Right of Set-off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of said Section 6.01, each Lender Party and each of its respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender Party or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all of the Obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty, whether or not such Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Guaranty and although such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender Party agrees promptly to notify such Guarantor after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender Party and its respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender Party and its respective Affiliates may have. Section 12. Indemnification. Without limitation on any other Obligations of any Guarantor or remedies of the Lender Parties under this Guaranty, each of the Guarantors shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless each Lender Party from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs, expenses and charges (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of such Lender Party's legal counsel) suffered or incurred by such Lender Party as a result of any failure of any Guaranteed Obligations to be the legal, valid and binding obligations of any Borrower enforceable against such Borrower in accordance with their terms. Section 13. Continuing Guaranty; Assignments under the Credit Agreement. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and the Termination Date, (b) be binding upon each of the Guarantors, their successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and their successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender Party herein or otherwise, in each case as and to the extent provided in Section 9.07 of the Credit Agreement. EXHIBIT F 7 Section 14. Judgment. (a) Rate of Exchange. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder, under the Credit Agreement or under any Note or Notes in another currency into US Dollars or into a Primary Currency, as the case may be, each of the Guarantors agrees, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, a Lender Party could purchase such other currency with US Dollars or with a Primary Currency, as the case may be, in New York City, New York at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given, together with any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with such purchase. (b) Indemnity. The obligation of each of the Guarantors in respect of any sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party hereunder, under the Credit Agreement or under any Note or Notes shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than US Dollars or a Primary Currency, as the case may be, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day next succeeding receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase US Dollars or such Primary Currency, as the case may be, with such other currency. If the US Dollars or such Primary Currency so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Administrative Agent or such Lender Party in US Dollars or in such Primary Currency, each of the Guarantors agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party against such loss, and if the US Dollars or such Primary Currency so purchased exceed the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party in US Dollars or in such Primary Currency, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party agrees to remit to such Guarantor such excess. Section 15. Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court.

Each of the Guarantors agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guaranty shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a party in the courts of any jurisdiction.

Each of the Guarantors may receive a portion of the proceeds of the Advances under the Credit Agreement and will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. It is a condition precedent to the making of Advances and the issuance of Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement that each of the Guarantors shall have executed and delivered this Guaranty. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order to induce the Lender Parties to make Advances and to issue Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement from time to time, each of the Guarantors hereby agrees as follows: Section 1.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Non-US Borrowers to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party under the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving any Non-US Borrower. (b) Each of the Guarantors, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lender Parties, hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the United States Federal Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Act or any similar federal or state law or similar law in any applicable jurisdiction outside the United States covering the protection of creditors' rights or the relief of debtors to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each of the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lender Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Guaranteed Obligations and all of the other liabilities of each of the Guarantors under this Guaranty shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all of the other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant thereunder, and after giving effect to any collections from, any rights to receive contributions from, or any payments made by or on behalf of, any of the other Guarantors in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Guaranty, result in the Guaranteed Obligations and all of the other liabilities of each of the Guarantors under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer of conveyance. EXHIBIT G 1 Section 2. Guaranty Absolute. Each of the Guarantors guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party with respect thereto. The Obligations of each of the Guarantors under this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any of the Guarantors to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Non-US Borrower or any other Loan Party or whether any Non-US Borrower or any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each of the Guarantors under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any or all of the following: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Non-US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise; (c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (d) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under the Loan Documents or any other assets of any Non-US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Non-US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; EXHIBIT G 2 (f) any failure of any Lender Party to disclose to any Non-US Borrower or any of the Guarantors any information relating to the financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of any Loan Party now or in the future known to any Lender Party (each of the Guarantors waiving any duty on the part of the Lender Parties to disclose such information); or (g) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any of the Non-US Borrowers, any of the Guarantors or any other guarantor or surety. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Lender Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Non-US Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Section 3. Waivers and Acknowledgments. (a) Each of the Guarantors hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Non-US Borrowers or any other Person or any Collateral. (b) Each of the Guarantors hereby waives any right to revoke this Guaranty, and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future. (c) Each of the Guarantors acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in this Section 3 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Section 4. Subrogation. Each of the Guarantors will not exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Non-US Borrower or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor's Obligations under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party against any Non-US Borrower or any other insider guarantor or any collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Non-US Borrower or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, and the Commitments shall have expired or terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any of the Guarantors in violation of the preceding sentence at any time prior to the later of the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and the Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall be paid in full in cash and (iii) the Termination Date shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties will, at such Guarantor's request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by such Guarantor. EXHIBIT G 3 Section 5. Payments Free and Clear of Taxes, Etc. (a) Any and all payments made by any Guarantor hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If any Guarantor shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Guarantor shall make such deductions and (iii) such Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, each of the Guarantors agrees to pay any present or future Other Taxes. (c) Each of the Guarantors will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes by or on behalf of any of the Guarantors, such Guarantor will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in the Credit Agreement, the original receipt of payment thereof or a certified copy of such receipt. In the case of any payment hereunder by or on behalf of any Guarantor through an account or branch outside the United States or on behalf of any Guarantor by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Guarantor determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Guarantor shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this subsection (d) and subsection (e), the terms "United States" and "United States person" shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. EXHIBIT G 4 (e) Upon the reasonable request in writing of any Guarantor, each Lender Party organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender or Initial Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance or other agreement pursuant to which it became a Lender Party in the case of each other Lender Party, and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request in writing by any Guarantor (but only so long thereafter as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide the Administrative Agent and such Guarantor with Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W 8BECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender Party is exempt from or is entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments under the Credit Agreement or the Notes. If the form provided by a Lender Party at the time such Lender Party first becomes a party to the Credit Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender Party provides the appropriate form certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender Party assignee becomes a party to the Credit Agreement, the Lender Party assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender Party assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) and requested by any Guarantor pursuant to this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W 8BECI, that any Lender Party reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender Party shall give notice thereof to such Guarantor and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender Party required to do so has failed to provide any Guarantor following such Guarantor's request therefor pursuant to subsection (e) above with the appropriate form described in subsection (e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring after the date on which a form originally was required to be provided or if such form otherwise is not required under subsection (e)), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided, however, that should a Lender Party become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, each of the Guarantors shall take such steps as such Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist such Lender Party to recover such Taxes. (g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of each of the Guarantors hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the agreements and obligations of each of the Guarantors contained in this Section 5 shall survive the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty. EXHIBIT G 5 Section 6. Representations and Warranties. Each of the Guarantors hereby represents and warrants to each of the Lender Parties as follows: (a) There are no conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty that have not been satisfied or waived. (b) Such Guarantor has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Guaranty, and such Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from any other Loan Parties on a continuing basis information pertaining to, and is now and on a continuing basis will be completely familiar with, the financial condition, operations, properties and prospects of such other Loan Parties. (c) Such Guarantor is, individually and together with its Subsidiaries, Solvent. Section 7. Confirmation of Certain Provisions of the Credit Agreement. Each of the Guarantors hereby confirms and agrees that so long as any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding, or any Lender Party shall have any Commitment, such Guarantor will perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and agreements set forth in the Loan Documents to be performed or observed by such Guarantor or that Paxar has agreed to cause such Guarantor to perform or observe. Section 8. Amendments; Supplements, Etc. (a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty and no consent to any departure by any of the Guarantors therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all of the Lender Parties, (i) limit, reduce or terminate the liability of any of the Guarantors hereunder, (ii) postpone any date fixed for payment hereunder or (iii) change the number of Lender Parties required to take any action hereunder. (b) Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a supplement to this Guaranty pursuant to Section 5.01(m) of the Credit Agreement, in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (each a "Guaranty Supplement"), such Person shall be referred to as an "Additional Guarantor" and shall be and become a Guarantor, and each reference in this Guaranty to a "Guarantor" shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor and each reference in any other Loan Document to a "Guarantor" or a "Loan Party" shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor. Section 9. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecopy communication) and mailed, telecopied or delivered to it, if to any Initial Guarantor, addressed to it at its address set forth below its name on the signature pages hereto, if to any Additional Guarantor, at its address set forth below its name on the signature page to the Guaranty Supplement executed and delivered by it, if to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party, at its address specified in the Credit Agreement, or as to any party at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. All such notices and other communications shall, when mailed or telecopied, be effective when deposited in the mails or transmitted by telecopier, respectively. EXHIBIT G 6 Section 10. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Section 11. Right of Set-off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of said Section 6.01, each Lender Party and each of its respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender Party or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all of the Obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty, whether or not such Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Guaranty and although such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender Party agrees promptly to notify such Guarantor after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender Party and its respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender Party and its respective Affiliates may have. Section 12. Indemnification. Without limitation on any other Obligations of any Guarantor or remedies of the Lender Parties under this Guaranty, each of the Guarantors shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless each Lender Party from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs, expenses and charges (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of such Lender Party's legal counsel) suffered or incurred by such Lender Party as a result of any failure of any Guaranteed Obligations to be the legal, valid and binding obligations of any Non-US Borrower enforceable against such Non-US Borrower in accordance with their terms. Section 13. Continuing Guaranty; Assignments under the Credit Agreement. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and the Termination Date, (b) be binding upon each of the Guarantors, their successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and their successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender Party may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender Party herein or otherwise, in each case as and to the extent provided in Section 9.07 of the Credit Agreement. EXHIBIT G 7 Section 14. Judgment. (a) Rate of Exchange. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder, under the Credit Agreement or under any Note or Notes in another currency into US Dollars or into a Primary Currency, as the case may be, each of the Guarantors agrees, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, a Lender Party could purchase such other currency with US Dollars or with a Primary Currency, as the case may be, in New York City, New York at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given, together with any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with such purchase. (b) Indemnity. The obligation of each of the Guarantors in respect of any sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party hereunder, under the Credit Agreement or under any Note or Notes shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than US Dollars or a Primary Currency, as the case may be, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day next succeeding receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase US Dollars or such Primary Currency, as the case may be, with such other currency. If the US Dollars or such Primary Currency so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Administrative Agent or such Lender Party in US Dollars or in such Primary Currency, each of the Guarantors agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party against such loss, and if the US Dollars or such Primary Currency so purchased exceed the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party in US Dollars or in such Primary Currency, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party agrees to remit to such Guarantor such excess. Section 15. Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court.

Each of the Guarantors hereby further agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding brought in any such New York state court or in any such federal court may be made upon Paxar at its address specified in Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement, and each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably appoints Paxar as its authorized agent to accept such service of process, and hereby irrevocably agrees that the failure of Paxar to give any notice of such service to such Guarantor shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon. Each of the Guarantors agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guaranty shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a party in the courts of any jurisdiction. EXHIBIT G 8 (b) Each of the Guarantors irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is or is to be a party in any New York State or federal court.
