Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made (i) without giving effect to any election under Accounting Standards Codification 825-10-25 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of any Borrower or any Subsidiary at “fair value”, as defined therein, (ii) without giving effect to any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20 or Accounting Standards Update No 2015-03 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof and (iii) in a manner such that any obligations relating to a lease that was accounted for by a Person as an operating lease as of the Effective Date and any similar lease entered into after the Effective Date by such Person shall be accounted for as obligations relating to an operating lease and not as capital lease obligations (and therefore not as Indebtedness for purposes of this Agreement).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 1.03 or in the definition of “Capital Lease Obligations,” any change in accounting for leases pursuant to GAAP resulting from the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), to the extent such adoption would require treating any lease (or similar arrangement conveying the right to use) as a finance lease or a capital lease where such lease (or similar arrangement) would not have been required to be so treated under GAAP as in effect on December 15, 2015, such lease shall not be considered a finance lease or a capital lease, and all calculations and deliverables under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made or delivered, as applicable, in accordance therewith.

SECTION 1.04. Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Advances and Base Rate Advances is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate or the EURIBOR Rate, as the case may be, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Advances. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. In the event that the London interbank offered rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances as set forth in Section 2.07(b) of this Agreement, such Section 2.07(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.07, in advance of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Advances is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or “EURIBOR Rate” with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate, as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.07(b), will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or the EURIBOR Rate, as the case may be, or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

SECTION 1.05. Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

SECTION 2.01. The Revolving Credit Advances. Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Revolving Credit Advances to any Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date denominated in Dollars or Euro in an aggregate amount (based in respect of any Revolving Credit Advances to be denominated in Euro by reference to the Equivalent thereof in Dollars determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing) not to exceed at any time outstanding such Lender’s Unused Commitment. Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be in an amount not less than the Revolving Credit Borrowing Minimum or a Revolving Credit Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof (provided that a Base Rate Advance may be in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.17(f)) and shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances of the same Type and in the same currency made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments. Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay pursuant to Section 2.09 and reborrow under this Section 2.01.

SECTION 2.02. Making the Revolving Credit Advances. (a) Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars, (y) 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Euro, or (z) 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier. Each such notice of a Revolving Credit Borrowing (a “Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing”) shall be 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 Revolving Credit Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Revolving Credit Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, and (iv) in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, initial Interest Period and currency for each such Revolving Credit Advance. Each Lender shall, before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Advances denominated in Dollars, and before 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Euro, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Revolving Credit Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower that requested such Revolving Credit Advance to an account of such Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s address referred to in Section 9.02 or at the applicable Payment Office, as the case may be, and designated by such Borrower in the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing; provided, however, that a portion of such funds in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of any Base Rate Advances made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.17(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the relevant Issuing Lender.

(b)    [Reserved].

(c)    Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) no Borrower may select Eurocurrency Rate Advances for any Revolving Credit Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Borrowing is less than the Revolving Credit Borrowing Minimum or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.11 and (ii) the Eurocurrency Rate Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than six separate Revolving Credit Borrowings.

(d)    Each Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower giving such Notice. In the case of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that the related Notice of Revolving Credit

Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Borrower giving such Notice shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing for such Revolving Credit 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 Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Revolving Credit Borrowing when such Revolving Credit 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 time of any Revolving Credit Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable 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 applicable Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate applicable at the time to Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Revolving Credit Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount and (ii) in the case of such Lender, (A) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars or (B) the Overnight Eurocurrency Rate in the case of Advances denominated in Euro. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Credit Advance as part of such Revolving Credit Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

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

SECTION 2.03. Fees. (a) Commitment Fee. PPG agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee on the average daily unused amount of such Lender’s Commitment during the period from the Effective Date in the case of each Initial Lender and from the effective date specified in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other Lender to the earlier of the date the Commitments terminate and the Termination Date at a rate per annum determined in accordance with the table set forth in the definition of “Applicable Rate”. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the earlier of the date the Commitments terminate and the Termination Date, commencing on the Effective Date.

(b)    Administrative Agent’s Fees. PPG shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between PPG and the Administrative Agent.

(c)    Letter of Credit Fees. Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participation in each Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower, which shall accrue on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) relating to such Letter of Credit at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin that would be in effect for a Eurocurrency Rate Advance made on the date such Letter of Credit is issued subject, if such Letter of Credit is outstanding for more than three months, to readjustment at the end at each successive three-month period by reference to the Applicable Margin that would be in effect for a Eurocurrency Rate Advance Loan made at the time of such readjustment. Participation fees shall be payable to each Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure. In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay to the applicable Issuing Lender a fronting fee, as well as such Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the

issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower or processing of drawings thereunder, as previously agreed between PPG and such Issuing Lender. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) shall be payable within 10 days after receipt by PPG of written demand therefor.

SECTION 2.04. Optional Termination, Reduction, Increase or Extension of the Commitments. (a)  Termination or Reduction. PPG shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or permanently reduce ratably in part the respective Commitments of the Lenders, provided that (i) each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of not less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) PPG shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.09, any Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed its Commitment.

(b)    Increase. PPG shall have the right from time to time to increase the aggregate Commitments hereunder by an aggregate amount not exceeding $750,000,000 by causing one or more Additional Commitment Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) to provide a (or, in the case of an existing Lender, to increase its) Commitment (each such increase, an “Commitment Increase”), provided that (i) no Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to become an Additional Commitment Lender and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of each Lender (and any Lender that does not advise PPG of its election to become an Additional Commitment Lender hereunder shall be deemed to have rejected such request) and (ii) each Commitment Increase shall be in an aggregate amount for all Additional Commitment Lenders of at least $25,000,000. Each such Additional Commitment Lender, each Issuing Lender, and each Borrower shall enter into an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to PPG, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender pursuant to which each Additional Commitment Lender shall, as of the effective date of such Commitment Increase (which shall be a Business Day and, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, a day on which no issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit is scheduled to occur), provide a Commitment (or, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is an existing Lender, increase its Commitment) in the amount specified therein and (if not an existing Lender) become a Lender hereunder.

Each notice under clause (i) above shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrowers as to the matters specified in clauses (ii) and (iii) above. On the effective date of each Commitment Increase, PPG shall simultaneously (i) prepay in full the outstanding Revolving Credit Advances (if any) held by the Lenders immediately prior to giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase (which prepayment may be made with the proceeds of new Revolving Credit Advances under the following clause (ii)), (ii) if PPG shall have so requested in accordance with this Agreement, borrow new Revolving Credit Advances from all Lenders (including, if applicable, any new Lenders) such that, after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Credit Advances are held ratably by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments (after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) and (iii) pay to the Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 9.04(c).

(c)    Extension of Termination Date. (i) The Borrowers may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each Issuing Lender and the Lenders) not more than 60 days and not less than 30 days

prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date (or if such anniversary date is not a Business Day, the Business Day next succeeding such anniversary) (such anniversary of the Effective Date, the “Extension Effective Date”), request (an “Extension Request”) that each Lender extend its Termination Date for an additional one year; provided that no more than two Extension Requests may be requested during the life of the facility. Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent given not later than the 20th day (or such later day as shall be acceptable to the Borrowers) following the date of the Extension Request, advise the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension; provided that any Lender that does not so advise the Borrowers shall be deemed to have rejected such Extension Request. The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree.

(ii)    With respect to any Extension Request, the Borrowers shall have the right, at any time on or prior to, or at any time following, the related Extension Effective Date, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to replace any Lender that rejected or was deemed to reject such Extension Request with, and otherwise add to this Agreement, one or more Additional Commitment Lenders (which may include any existing Lender). Each Additional Commitment Lender shall enter into an agreement with the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective as of the related Extension Effective Date (or, if such replacement occurs thereafter, as of the relevant effective date of such replacement), provide a (or, in the case of an existing Lender, increase its) Commitment hereunder in the amount specified therein and (if not then an existing Lender) become a Lender hereunder.

(iii)    If, in connection with an Extension Request, Lenders (including any Additional Commitment Lenders) shall have agreed to extend more than 50% of the aggregate Commitments (such extending Lenders and extending Additional Commitment Lenders, collectively the “Extending Lenders” with respect to such Extension Request) then, effective as of the related Extension Effective Date, the Termination Date for each such Extending Lender shall be the related Extended Termination Date and (if not then an existing Lender) each Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that such extension of the Termination Date (the “Extension”) shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless as of the related Extension Effective Date the following terms are satisfied:

(A) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(B) the representations and warranties set forth in Article III shall be true and correct on and as of such Extension Effective Date as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date);

(C) except as to the Termination Date with respect thereto, the Commitment of any Extending Lender, and the related outstandings, shall be a Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) having the same terms (including collateral, if any) as the original Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that, subject to the provisions of Section 2.05(b) and Section 2.17(c), to the extent dealing with Letters of Credit which mature or expire after the applicable Termination Date when there exist more than one Tranche of Commitments, all Letters of Credit shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share (and, except as provided in Section 2.05(b) and Section 2.17(c), without giving effect to changes thereto on the applicable Termination Date, with respect to Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued) and all borrowings under Commitments and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for repayments required upon the applicable Termination Date of a Tranche of Commitments);

(D) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the terms of this Section 2.04(c);

(E) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of the chief financial officer of PPG stating that the conditions with respect to the Extension have been satisfied;

(F) the Administrative Agent shall have received such evidence of the authority of the Borrowers to effect the Extension as it may reasonably request; and

(G) all amounts payable hereunder to any Lender that is being replaced by an Additional Commitment Lender in connection with such Extension shall have been paid in full. Upon the effectiveness of the Extension, the Administrative Agent shall record the relevant information in the Register and give prompt notice of such Extension to the Borrowers and the Lenders.

(iv)    In connection with an Extension, the Borrowers shall agree to such procedures (including regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.04(c).

(v)    No consent of any parties to this Agreement shall be required to effectuate an Extension, other than (A) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to its Commitments (or a portion thereof) as contemplated above and (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender (which consents referred to in this Clause (B) shall not be unreasonably withheld). The Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.04(c) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest or fees in respect of any extended Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including Sections 2.03, 2.05, 2.06, 2.12 and 2.14) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.04(c). The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement with the Borrowers (in consultation with the Lenders) as may be necessary in order to establish a new Tranche in respect of any extended Commitments and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in connection with such new tranche, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.04(c) and the Extension Request.

(vi)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) no Lender shall have any obligation to participate in or agree to an Extension and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of each Lender and (B) with respect to any Lender that rejected or was deemed to reject any Extension Request, the Termination Date for such Lender shall remain unchanged (and the Commitment of such Lender (including its obligation in respect of any participation in respect of any Letter of Credit) shall terminate, the Advances made by such Lender to any Borrower hereunder shall mature and be payable by such Borrower, and all other amounts owing to such Lender hereunder shall be payable, on such date).

(vii)    Any Issuing Lender may resign by notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrowers on or before the applicable Extension Effective Date following the related Extension Request, and any such resignation shall become effective on the Termination Date in effect before giving effect to any extension thereof as a result of such Extension Request; provided that such Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend, extend or renew any Letter of Credit if after giving effect thereto the such Letter of Credit would expire after the date that is five Business Days prior to the Original Termination Date.

SECTION 2.05. Repayment. (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 its Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding.

(b)    [Reserved].

SECTION 2.06. Interest on Revolving Credit Advances. (a)  Scheduled Interest. Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Advance owing to each Lender by such Borrower from the date of such Revolving Credit Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(i)    Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Revolving Credit Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin in respect of Base Rate Advances 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 Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.

(ii)    [Reserved].

(iii)    Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such periods as such Revolving Credit Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Revolving Credit Advance to the sum of (x) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such Revolving Credit Advance plus (y) the Applicable Margin in respect of Eurocurrency Rate Advances in effect from time to time payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months, from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such 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 under Section 6.01(a), the Administrative Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, require each Borrower to pay interest (“Default Interest”) on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Advance owing to each Lender by such Borrower, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a) above, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 1% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to clause (a) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder by such Borrower that is not 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 1% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Advances pursuant to clause (a)(i) above; provided, however, that, following acceleration of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01, Default Interest shall accrue and be payable hereunder upon demand.

SECTION 2.07. Interest Rate Determination. (a) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that (i)  adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable (including because the applicable screen rate is not available or published on a current basis) or (ii) 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 (A) the applicable Borrower will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (1) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Dollars, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (2) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Euro, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) exchange such Advances into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (B) 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; provided that, if the circumstances set forth in clause (ii) above are applicable to Eurocurrency Rate Advances for Euro, the applicable Borrower may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, to continue such Advances in Euro for a period of not longer than 30 days, which Advances shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin in respect of Eurocurrency Rate Advances plus, for each Lender, the cost to such Lender (expressed as a rate per annum) of funding its Eurocurrency Rate Advances by whatever means it reasonably determines to be appropriate. Each Lender shall certify its cost of funds for each Interest Period to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower as soon as practicable (but in any event not later than ten Business Days after the first day of such period).

(b)    If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have not arisen but either (w) the supervisor for the administrator of the Applicable Eurocurrency Rate has made a public statement that the administrator of the Applicable Eurocurrency Rate is insolvent (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the Applicable

Eurocurrency Rate), (x) the administrator of the Applicable Eurocurrency Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Applicable Eurocurrency Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of Applicable Eurocurrency Rate), (y) the supervisor for the administrator of the Applicable Eurocurrency Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Applicable Eurocurrency Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published or (z) the supervisor for the administrator of the Applicable Eurocurrency Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Applicable Eurocurrency Rate may no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans denominated in the applicable currency in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Rate); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.02, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date that a copy of such amendment is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii)(w), clause (ii)(x) or clause (ii)(y) of the first sentence of this Section 2.07(b), only to the extent the Applicable Eurocurrency Rate for the applicable currency and such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be ineffective and (y) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Advance; provided that (A) the applicable Borrower will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (1) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Dollars, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (2) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Euro, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) exchange such Advances into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances.

(c)    If any 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 Dollars, Convert into Base Rate Advances and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Euro, be exchanged into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Convert into Base Rate Advances.

(d)    On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurocurrency Rate Advances comprising any Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than the Revolving Credit Borrowing Minimum, such Advances shall automatically, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars, Convert into Base Rate Advances or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Euro, be exchanged into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Convert into Base Rate Advances.

SECTION 2.08. Optional Conversion of Revolving Credit Advances. Any Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.07 and 2.11, Convert all Revolving Credit Advances made to it denominated in Dollars of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Revolving Credit Advances denominated in Dollars of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.01 and no Conversion of any Revolving Credit Advances shall result in more separate Revolving Credit Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Dollar denominated Revolving Credit Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower giving such notice.

SECTION 2.09. Prepayments of Revolving Credit Advances. (a)  Optional. Any Borrower may, upon notice at least two Business Days’ prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, and not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances, 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 Revolving Credit Advances comprising part of the same Revolving Credit 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 not less than the Revolving Credit Borrowing Minimum, or a Revolving Credit Borrowing Multiple, in excess thereof and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c).

(b)    Mandatory. (i) If, on any date, the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that, on any interest payment date, the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Dollars then outstanding plus (B) the Equivalent in Dollars (determined on the third Business Day prior to such interest payment date) of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Euro then outstanding plus (C) the LC Exposure then outstanding exceeds 105% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date, the Borrowers shall, as soon as practicable and in any event within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, subject to the proviso to this sentence set forth below, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Advances owing by the Borrowers in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed 100% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal amount of Advances prepaid; provided that, if the aggregate principal amount of Base Rate Advances outstanding at the time of such required prepayment is less than the amount of such required prepayment, the portion of such required prepayment in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Base Rate Advances then outstanding shall be deferred until the last day of the Interest Period of the outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Advances, in an aggregate amount equal to the excess of such required prepayment. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.09(b) to the Borrowers and the Lenders, and shall provide prompt notice to the Borrowers of any such notice of required prepayment received by it from any Lender.

(ii)    Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.09(b) shall be made together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in the case of any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or at its maturity, any additional amounts which the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c).

SECTION 2.10. Increased Costs. (a) If, due to any Change in Law, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender or Issuing Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances or participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.10 any such increased costs resulting from (1) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.13 shall govern) and (2) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States of America or by

the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then each Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender or Issuing Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or Issuing Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender or Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b)    If any Lender or Issuing Lender determines that Change in Law affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or Issuing Lender or any Person controlling such Lender or Issuing Lender and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s commitment to lend, or to participate in, or issue or maintain any Letter of Credit, hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by such Lender or Issuing Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), each Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or Issuing Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender or Issuing Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Person in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender or Issuing Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s commitment to lend, or to participate in, or issue or maintain any Letter of Credit hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent by such Lender or Issuing Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.11. 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 Applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances hereunder, (a)(i) each such Eurocurrency Rate Advance denominated in Dollars as the case may be, will automatically, upon such demand, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance or an Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.06(a)(i), and (ii) each such Eurocurrency Rate Advance denominated in Euro as the case may be, will automatically, upon such demand, be exchanged into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and be Converted into a Base Rate Advance, and (b) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances 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.

SECTION 2.12. Payments and Computations. (a) Except to the extent otherwise provided for in Section 2.17 with respect to the reimbursement of LC Disbursements and interest thereon (i) the Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder, without counterclaim or set-off, with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in Dollars, or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Agent’s Account in same day funds, (ii) the Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder, without counterclaim or set-off, with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in Euro, not later than 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the day when due in Euro to the Administrative Agent, by deposit of such funds to the applicable Agent’s Account in same day funds, and (iii) the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or commitment fees and participation fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.10, 2.13 or 9.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender 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(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(b)    Each Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender is not made when due hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, to charge from time to time against any or all of such Borrower’s accounts with such Lender any amount so due.

(c)    All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate, Overnight Eurocurrency Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of commitment fees, participation fees and fronting fees pursuant to Section 2.03 shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in each case of Advances denominated in Euro where market practice differs, in accordance with market practice), in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(d)    Whenever any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents 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, commitment fee, participation fee or fronting fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency 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 the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents 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 or Issuing Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender or Issuing Lender. If and to the extent such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender until the date such Lender or Issuing Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at (i) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars or (ii) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in Euro.

(f)    To the extent that the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the amounts owing by any Borrower under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in currencies other than the currency or currencies required to enable the Administrative Agent to distribute funds to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.12, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to convert or exchange such funds into the required currencies, to the extent necessary to enable the Administrative Agent to distribute such funds in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.12; provided that each Borrower and each of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders hereby agree that the Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered by such Borrower, such Lender or Issuing Lender as a result of any conversion or exchange of currencies affected pursuant to this Section 2.12(f) or as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to effect any such conversion or exchange unless such loss, cost or expense or such failure is the result of fraudulent acts or omissions, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent; and provided, further, that each Borrower, jointly and severally with each other Borrower, agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender, and hold the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender harmless, for any and all losses, costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender for any conversion or exchange of currencies (or the failure to convert or exchange any currencies) in accordance with this Section 2.12(f) except to the extent such losses, costs or expenses arose as a result of fraudulent acts or omissions, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent.

(g)    If, and for so long as, any Defaulting Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(b), 2.02(e), 2.12(e), 2.17(e) or (f), or 9.04(b), the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, apply any amounts thereafter received by the

Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender under this Agreement for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lenders to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

SECTION 2.13. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of each Borrower to or for the account of any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.12 or the applicable provisions of such other documents, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non‑excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder to any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent, (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 2.13) such Lender, such Issuing Lender 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.

(b)    In addition, the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment of and 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 any of the other Loan Documents or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c)    The Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.13) imposed on or paid by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Borrower by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)    Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrowers 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 to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder by or on behalf of any Borrower through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of any Borrower by a payor that is not a United States person, if the applicable 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) below, the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code.

(e)    Each Lender 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 and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers with two original Internal Revenue Service forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender 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 at the time such Lender 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 provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes; provided, however, that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender assignee becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender 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 assignee on such date. Without limiting any of the above, if any Lender would be entitled to claim, with respect to a payment from any Borrower that is a United States person, as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code, or that is otherwise a United States-source payment, the benefits of the exemption from United States withholding tax for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, such Lender shall also deliver a certificate to the effect that such Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881 (c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of PPG within the meaning of section 881 (c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881 (c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code. 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 Effective Date by Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or W-8ECI, that the Lender reasonably considers to be confidential, the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers 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 has failed to provide the Borrowers with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in Section 2.13(e) (other than if such failure is due to a Change in Law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided, or if such form otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.13(a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States of America solely by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the Borrowers shall take such steps as the Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such Taxes.

(g)    If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. “FATCA” means Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, (or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof and any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code.

(h)    Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so),

(ii) any taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.07(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (h).

SECTION 2.14. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set‑off, or otherwise) on account of the Revolving Credit Advances owing to it or participations in LC Disbursements (other than pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.13 or 9.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Revolving Credit Advances or participations in LC Disbursements obtained by all the Lenders holding such Advances, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Revolving Credit Advances owing to them or participations in LC Disbursements as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender 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, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set‑off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.15. Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Revolving Credit Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Revolving Credit Advances. Each Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to such Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Revolving Credit Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, such Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount up to the Commitment of such Lender.

(b)    The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(d) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from any Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

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

SECTION 2.16. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) for general corporate purposes of PPG and its Subsidiaries. The Letters of Credit shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such Letters of Credit) for general corporate purposes of PPG and its Subsidiaries. Each Borrower agrees that it shall use the Letters of Credit and apply the proceeds of the Advances in compliance with all applicable laws.

SECTION 2.17. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, in addition to the Advances provided for in Section 2.01, each Borrower may request an Issuing Lender to issue, at any time and from time to time prior to the Termination Date, Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for its own account in such form as is acceptable to the relevant Issuing Lender in its reasonable determination. Each Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall be in a minimum face amount of $1,000,000. Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall constitute utilization of the Commitments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to issue any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (i) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person or in any Sanctioned Country or (ii) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement.

(b)    Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal or Extension. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the applicable Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the relevant Issuing Lender) to the Issuing Lender that is selected by it a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (d) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the relevant Issuing Lender, the applicable Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the applicable Borrower to, or entered into by the applicable Borrower with, an Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(c)    Limitations on Amounts. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure of each Issuing Lender (determined for these purposes without giving effect to the participations therein of the Lenders pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section) shall not exceed $20,000,000; provided that any Issuing Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, increase or decrease its maximum LC Exposure upon request of PPG; provided, further, that the aggregate LC Exposure of all Issuing Lenders at any time shall not exceed $300,000,000, (ii) the sum of the total LC Exposures plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Advances shall not exceed the total Commitments and (iii) if at such time there are Commitments that will remain in effect after the occurrence of a Termination Date, the total LC Exposure of the Issuing Lenders (determined for these purposes without giving effect to the participations therein of the Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.17) with respect to Letters of Credit that have an expiry date after such Termination Date does not exceed the aggregate amount of such Commitments.

If there is more than one Tranche in effect at any time and, upon a Termination Date there are outstanding Letters of Credit, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make payments in respect thereof pursuant to this Section 2.17) under (and ratably participated in by the Lenders pursuant to) the Commitments of the Tranche or Tranches that will remain in effect after the occurrence of such Termination Date (it being understood that the participations therein of the Lenders whose Commitment termination on such Termination Date shall be correspondingly released) and, to the extent necessary, each Borrower shall prepay outstanding Revolving Credit Advances attributable to it pursuant to Section 2.09 on such Termination Date in an amount sufficient to permit the reallocation of the LC Exposure relating to such outstanding Letters of Credit contemplated hereby.

(d)    Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date twelve months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, twelve months after the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit, so long as such renewal or extension occurs within three months of such then-current expiration date) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the earliest Termination Date then in effect; provided that, if there are Commitments that will remain in effect after the occurrence of such Termination Date, a Letter of Credit may expire after the date specified in clause (ii) above (but in no event later than five Business Days prior to the latest Extended Termination Date), provided that (x) the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit occurs after such Termination Date, or (y) on the date of (and after giving effect to) such issuance, the condition set forth in Section 2.17(c)(iii) shall be satisfied.

(e)    Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) by an Issuing Lender, and without any further action on the part of such Issuing Lender or the Lenders, such Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments.

In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for account of the relevant Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender promptly upon the request of such Issuing Lender at any time from the time of such LC Disbursement until such LC Disbursement is reimbursed by the applicable Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason. Such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each such payment shall be made in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02 with respect to Advances made by such Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the relevant Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the applicable Borrower pursuant to the next following paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the relevant Issuing Lender or, to the extent that the Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement shall not constitute an Advance and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f)    Reimbursement. If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Lender in respect of such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the applicable Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the applicable Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time, provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000, the applicable Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.01 that such payment be financed with a Base Rate Advance in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the applicable Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Advance.

If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the applicable Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.

(g)    Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or

other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the relevant Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, any of their Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by any Issuing Lender or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of an Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Lender from liability to any Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by any such Borrower that are caused by an Issuing Lender’s fraudulent acts or omissions, gross negligence or willful misconduct when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that:

(i) an Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

(ii) an Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

(iii) this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by an Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).

(h)    Disbursement Procedures. The relevant Issuing Lender shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(i)    Interim Interest. If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the applicable Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Advances; provided that, if the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, then Section 2.06(b) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for account of the relevant Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section to reimburse the relevant Issuing Lender shall be for account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(j)    Replacement of an Issuing Lender. An Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement between PPG, the Administrative Agent, such replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of such Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, PPG shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for account of such replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to include such successor or any previous Issuing Lender, or such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(k)    Cash Collateralization. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Borrowers receive notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Advances has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing more than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall immediately, ratably on the basis of the LC Exposure attributable to each Borrower, deposit into an account established and maintained on the books and records of the Administrative Agent, which account may be a “securities account” (within the meaning of Section 8‑501 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York), in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 105% of the LC Exposure as of such date; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under Title 11, U.S. Code (the “Federal Bankruptcy Code”). Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the LC Exposure under this Agreement, and for this purpose the Borrowers hereby grant a security interest to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in such collateral account and in any financial assets (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) or other property held therein.

(l)    Existing Letter of Credit. Any letter of credit that has been issued under the Existing Credit Agreement by an Issuing Lender hereunder and that is designated as a “Letter of Credit” hereunder by PPG in a notice to the Administrative Agent (a “Designation of Existing Letter of Credit”) in substantially the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto, on the Effective Date (each such letter of credit being hereinafter referred to as an “Existing Letter of Credit”) shall, on the Effective Date, become a Letter of Credit of such Issuing Lender hereunder.

SECTION 2.18. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a)    commitment fees pursuant to Section 2.03(a) shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender;

(b)    the Unused Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.01); provided that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby;

(c)    if any LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i)    all or any part of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent (A) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (B) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Unused Commitments plus such Defaulting Lender’s Exposure does not exceed the total of

all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments and (B) the amount so to be allocated to each non-Defaulting Lender does not exceed such Lender’s Unused Commitment;

(ii)    if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, each Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize for the ratable benefit of each relevant Issuing Lender only such Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.17(k) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii)    if any Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv)    if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.03(a) and Section 2.03(c) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares; and

(v)    if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.03(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable on a pro rata basis to each relevant Issuing Lender until and except to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(d)    so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Lenders shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.18(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.18(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action with respect to a Parent of any Lender shall occur following the Effective Date and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) an Issuing Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, such Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Lender shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender, satisfactory to such Issuing Lender to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, PPG and each Issuing Lender each reasonably determines that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Advances of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Advances in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

SECTION 3.01. Conditions Precedent. The amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement and the agreement of the Lenders to make Advances and of the Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of Credit hereunder shall not become effective until the first date (the “Effective Date”) occurring on or prior September 15,

2019 on which the execution requirements specified in Section 9.06 and the following conditions precedent have been satisfied:

(a)    There shall have occurred no material adverse change in the business, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, of PPG and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole since December 31, 2018.

(c)    Nothing shall have come to the attention of the Lenders during the course of their due diligence investigation to lead them to believe that the Information Memorandum was or has become misleading, incorrect or incomplete in any material respect; without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders shall have been given such access to the management, records, books of account, contracts and properties of PPG and its Subsidiaries as they shall have reasonably requested.

(d)    All governmental and third party consents and approvals necessary in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall have been obtained (without the imposition of any conditions that are not acceptable to the Lenders) and shall remain in effect, and no law or regulation shall be applicable in the reasonable judgment of the Lenders that restrains, prevents or imposes materially adverse conditions upon the transactions contemplated hereby.

(e)    PPG shall have notified the Administrative Agent in writing as to the proposed Effective Date.

(f)    PPG shall have paid all accrued fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Lenders and the Arrangers (including the accrued fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent) payable on or prior to the Effective Date to the extent and as previously agreed in writing.

(g)    On the Effective Date, the following statements shall be true and the Administrative Agent shall have received for the account of each Lender and Issuing Lender a certificate signed by a duly authorized officer of PPG, dated the Effective Date, stating that:

(f)    A final judgment or order for the payment of money in excess of $50,000,000 shall be rendered by a court of record against PPG and such judgment or order shall not be appealable and shall continue unsatisfied and unstayed for a period of thirty (30) days;

(g)    Any of the following shall have occurred: (i) any person or group of persons shall have acquired beneficial ownership of a majority in interest of the outstanding Voting Stock of PPG (within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder) unless such acquisition of beneficial ownership is approved by a majority of the Incumbent Board (as such term is defined in clause (ii) of this paragraph (g)), or (ii) individuals who, as of the date of this Agreement were directors of PPG, together with any replacement or additional directors whose election was recommended by or who were elected by a majority of directors then in office (such directors together herein called the “Incumbent Board”), cease to constitute a majority of the board of directors of PPG or (iii) PPG shall cease to own, directly or indirectly, 100% of the Voting Stock of any other Borrower;

(j)    PPG shall fail to meet its minimum funding requirements under ERISA with respect to any Plan or if any Plan shall be terminated by act of the PBGC or a trustee shall be appointed for any Plan, except when such failure is of an amount which is not material to the financial condition of PPG or such termination or appointment would not result in the imposition on PPG of material liability, or when such failure is the result of contesting such minimum funding requirements in good faith and PPG has established on its books any reserve which is required by GAAP with respect thereto;

then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent (i) shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Borrowers, declare the obligation of each Lender to make Advances to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and (ii) shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Borrowers, declare the Advances, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Advances, all such interest and all such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower; provided, however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, (A) the obligation of each Lender to make Advances shall automatically be terminated and (B) the Advances, all such interest and all such amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower.

SECTION 7.01. Guaranty. PPG hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all obligations of each other Borrower now or hereafter existing under or in respect of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, PPG’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Issuing Lender under or in respect of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents to which such other Borrower is a party 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 Borrower. The obligations of PPG under this Section 7.01 constitute a guaranty of payments and not of collection.

SECTION 7.02. Guaranty Absolute. PPG guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable 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 or Issuing Lender with respect thereto. The obligations of PPG under or in respect of this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of any other Borrower under or in respect of this Agreement and the applicable Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against PPG to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any other Borrower or whether any other Borrower is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of PPG under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and PPG hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

(a)    any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, 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 Borrower under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any 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 any 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 Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other assets of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries;

(e)    any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries;

(f)    any failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Issuing Lender to disclose to any Borrower any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Borrower now or hereafter known to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Issuing Lender (PPG waiving any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders to disclose such information);

(g)    the release or reduction of liability of any other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations;

(h)    the enactment of any exchange controls in the jurisdiction of any Designated Subsidiary or any Governmental Authority thereof, or the occurrence of any adverse political or economic development in the jurisdiction of any Designated Subsidiary; or

(i)    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 or Issuing Lender that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower 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 the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Issuing Lender or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any other Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

SECTION 7.03. Waivers and Acknowledgments. (a) PPG hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor 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 or any Issuing Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Borrower or any other Person or any collateral.

(b)    PPG hereby unconditionally and irrevocably 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)    PPG hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any Issuing Lender that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of PPG or other rights of PPG to proceed against any of the other Borrowers, any other guarantor or any other Person or any collateral and (ii) any defense based on any right of set‑off or counterclaim against or in respect of the obligations of PPG hereunder.

(d)    PPG hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any Issuing Lender to disclose to PPG any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by the Administrative Agent or such Lender or such Issuing Lender.

(e)    PPG hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any defense arising by reason of any law, regulation, decree or order of any jurisdiction, or any other event, affecting any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any Credit Party’s rights with respect thereto, including (i) the application of any such law, regulation, decree or order, including any prior approval, which would prevent the exchange of a non-Dollar currency for Dollars or the remittance of funds outside of such jurisdiction or the unavailability of Dollars in any legal exchange market in such jurisdiction in accordance with normal commercial practice, (ii) a declaration of banking moratorium or any suspension of payments by banks in such jurisdiction or the imposition by such jurisdiction or any Governmental Authority thereof of any moratorium on, the required rescheduling or restructuring of, or required approval of payments on, any indebtedness in such jurisdiction, (iii) any expropriation, confiscation, nationalization or requisition by such jurisdiction or any Governmental Authority that directly or indirectly deprives any Borrower of any assets or their use or of the ability to operate its business or a material part thereof, or (iv) any war (whether or not declared), insurrection, revolution, hostile act, civil strife or similar events occurring in such jurisdiction which has the same effect as the events described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above (in each of the cases contemplated in clauses (i) through (iv) above, to the extent occurring or existing on or at any time after the date of this Agreement).

(f)    PPG acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Agreement and that the waivers set forth in Section 7.02 and this Section 7.03 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

SECTION 7.04. Subrogation. PPG hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against any other Borrower or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of PPG’s obligations under or in respect of this Guaranty, 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 or any Issuing Lender 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 Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash and the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to PPG in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the later of (a) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and (b) the Termination Date, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders, shall be segregated from other property and funds of PPG and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) 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 this Agreement, or to be held as collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (i) PPG shall make payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any Issuing Lender of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash and (iii) the Termination Date shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders will, at PPG’s request and expense, execute and deliver to PPG appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to PPG of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment made by PPG pursuant to this Guaranty.

SECTION 7.05. Subordination. PPG hereby subordinates any and all debts, liabilities and other obligations owed to PPG by each other Borrower (the “Subordinated Obligations”) to the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 7.05:

(a)    Prohibited Payments, Etc. Except during the continuance of a Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Borrower), PPG may receive regularly scheduled payments from any other Borrower on account of the Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Borrower), however, unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, PPG shall not demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations.

(b)    Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. In any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Borrower, PPG agrees that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding (“Post Petition Interest”)) before PPG receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations.

(c)    Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Borrower), PPG shall, if the Administrative Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of PPG under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

(d)    Administrative Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Borrower), the Administrative Agent is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in the name of PPG, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post Petition Interest), and (ii) to require PPG (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 Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post Petition Interest).

SECTION 7.06. Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and (ii) the Termination Date, (b) be binding upon PPG, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender 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 Commitments, 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 the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case as and to the extent provided in Section 9.07.

SECTION 8.01. Authorization and Action. Each of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or

take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender and Issuing Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by PPG or any other Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 8.02. Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may treat the Lender that made any Advance as the holder of the Indebtedness resulting therefrom until the Administrative Agent receives and accepts an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by such Lender, as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, as provided in Section 9.07; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrowers), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance, observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents on the part of any Borrower or the existence at any time of any Default or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Borrower; (v) shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (vi) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier or telegram) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

SECTION 8.03. JPMCB and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment, the Advances made by it and the Note issued to it, JPMCB shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include JPMCB in its individual capacity. JPMCB and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, PPG, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of PPG or any such Subsidiary, all as if JPMCB were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose information obtained or received by it or any of its affiliates relating to PPG or its Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained or received in any capacity other than as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.04. Lender Credit Decision. Each of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01(c) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

SECTION 8.05. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers), ratably according to the respective principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Advances then owed to each of them (or if no Revolving Credit Advances are at the time outstanding, ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this

Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”), provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of the Indemnified Costs resulting from the Administrative Agent’s fraudulent acts or omissions, gross negligence or willful misconduct, and provided, further, that the obligations of each Lender that shall cease to be a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.07 shall terminate on the date of the applicable assignment except to the extent any claim hereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out‑of‑pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrowers. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 8.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or a third party.

SECTION 8.06. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrowers and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders by giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lenders’ removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the existing Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a financial institution organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 and, if the Person then serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender, unless and until a successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and accepted such appointment, such resignation shall nevertheless be effective and, until a successor Administrative Agent is appointed by the Required Lenders, the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 8.07. Other Agents. Each of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders hereby acknowledges that neither the co-syndication agents nor any of the co-lead arrangers and co-bookrunners has any liability hereunder other than in its capacity as a Lender.

SECTION 8.08. Certain ERISA Matters.

Each Borrower (other than PPG) hereby irrevocably appoints PPG as its authorized agent to receive and deliver notices in accordance with this Section 9.02, and hereby irrevocably agrees that (A) in the case of clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the failure of PPG to give any notice referred to therein to any such Borrower to which such notice applies shall not impair or affect the validity of such notice with respect thereto and (B) in the case of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the delivery of any such notice by PPG, on behalf of any other Borrower, shall be binding on such other Borrower to the same extent as if such notice had been executed and delivered directly by such Borrower.

SECTION 9.03. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Borrower, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right 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 9.04. Costs and Expenses. (a) PPG agrees to pay all reasonable and customary out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent (within 10 days of receipt of a written itemized statement, together with supporting documentation, identifying in reasonable detail the amounts of such costs and expenses) incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder, including, without limitation, all due diligence, syndication (including printing, distribution and bank meetings), transportation, computer, duplication, appraisal, consultant, and audit expenses and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto. PPG further agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses, if any, of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents and the other documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender in connection with the enforcement of rights under this Section 9.04(a).

(b)    The Borrowers agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or the LC Disbursements or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of hazardous materials on any property of PPG or any of its Subsidiaries or any environmental action relating in any way to PPG or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s fraudulent acts or omissions, gross negligence or willful misconduct. 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 any Borrower, its directors, equity holders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Each Borrower also agrees not to assert any claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or the LC Disbursements. No Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent such damage is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s fraudulent acts or omissions, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c)    If (x) any payment or prepayment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurocurrency Rate Advance is made by any Borrower to or for the account of a Lender (i) other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment, prepayment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.09 or 2.11, acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or (ii) as a result of a payment, prepayment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.09 or 2.11, (y) any assignment of any Eurocurrency Rate Advance of any Borrower is made by any Lender other than on the last day of as a result of a demand by PPG pursuant to Section 9.07(a) or (z) any Borrower fails for any reason (including without limitation because applicable conditions precedent have not been satisfied) to borrow any Eurocurrency Rate Advance, such Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such

Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, prepayment, Conversion, assignment or failure to borrow, 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 any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance. If the amount of Euro purchased by any Lender in the case of a Conversion or exchange of Advances in the case of Section 2.07 or 2.11 exceeds the sum required to satisfy such Lender’s liability in respect of such Advances, such Lender agrees to remit to PPG such excess. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender as specified in this Section 9.04(c) delivered to such Borrower shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

(d)    Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers contained in Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the Notes.

SECTION 9.05. Right of Set‑off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) either (x) 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 or (y) the automatic acceleration of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01, each Lender 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 any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all of the obligations of any Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent 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 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 and its Affiliates may have.

SECTION 9.06. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01 and after it shall have been executed by PPG and the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower (including PPG as guarantor under Article VII) shall have the right to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, provided that any Borrower other than PPG may assign its rights or obligations to PPG or any other Borrower without such prior written consent.

SECTION 9.07. Assignments and Participations. (a) Each Lender may and, if demanded by PPG will (following (x) a demand by such Lender pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.13 or (y) a failure by such Lender to sign, within three Business Days after the date originally scheduled for delivery of such signature if the Required Lenders have delivered such signature on or prior to such scheduled date, any proposed amendment, waiver or consent to this Agreement or the Notes requiring, pursuant to Section 9.01, the signature of all Lenders), upon at least five Business Days’ notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, assign to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Revolving Credit Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender 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 $10,000,000 unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, PPG, (iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (iv) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by PPG pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) shall (x) be an assignment of all of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all of such Lender’s Commitment, the Revolving Credit Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) and (y) be arranged by PPG after receipt of the written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a

Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Lender), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that together cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement, (v) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by PPG pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either the Borrowers or one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement, (vi) 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 any Note subject to such assignment, (unless the assignee is already a Lender hereunder) an Administrative Questionnaire for the assignee and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 payable by the parties to each such assignment, provided, however, that in the case of each assignment made as a result of a demand by PPG, such recordation fee shall be payable by PPG except that no such recordation fee shall be payable in the case of an assignment made at the request of PPG to an Eligible Assignee that is an existing Lender, and (vii) any Lender may, without the approval of PPG, assign all or a portion of its rights to any of its Affiliates. 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 (other than its rights under Section 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (other than its obligations under Section 8.05 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) (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).

(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 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 any Borrower or the performance or observance by any Borrower of any of its 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 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 the Borrowers.

(d)    The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of PPG, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest on) of the Advances and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, any Issuing Lender or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e)    Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than PPG 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 Commitment, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the Borrowers hereunder) and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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 of the other Loan Documents, or any consent to any departure by any Borrower 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 or thereunder, 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. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. The Borrowers agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 9.04(c) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.07(a); provided that such participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 9.07(a) as if it were an assignee under Section 9.07(a); and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.10 or 2.13, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.05 as though it were a Lender; provided that such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.14 as though it were a Lender.

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

(g)    Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the

Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to any other central bank; provided that no such assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), upon the identification as such in writing from time to time by such Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and PPG and upon the prior written consent of PPG in its sole and absolute discretion, the option to provide to any Borrower all or any part of any Advance that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to such Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Advance and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Advance, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of an Advance by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent and as if such Advance were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with such Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.07, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, PPG and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Advances to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by PPG and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Advances and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Advances to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section 9.07(h) may not be amended without the written consent of the SPC.

SECTION 9.08. Confidentiality. None of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender shall disclose any Confidential Information to any other Person without the consent of PPG, other than (a) to the Administrative Agent’s, such Issuing Lender’s or such Lender’s Affiliates and to their and their Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors; (b) as contemplated by Section 9.07(f), to actual or prospective assignees and participants, or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations (provided, such assignees, participants, counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 9.08 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 9.08) in each case only on a confidential need-to-know basis; (c) as required by any law, rule or regulation or judicial process; (d) as requested or required by any state, federal or foreign authority or examiner regulating banks or banking or financial institutions (including any self-regulatory authority); (e) to any other party hereto; (f) in connection with any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of its rights hereunder or thereunder; (g) with the consent of PPG; (h) to the extent such Confidential Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.08, (ii) is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or (iii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, any Lender, or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Borrower; and (i) on a confidential basis to (x) any rating agency in connection with rating a Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Advances, (y) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Advances or (z) data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry.

SECTION 9.09. 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 9.10. 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 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 9.11. Judgment. (a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase Dollars with such other currency at its principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.    

(b)    If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Euro into Dollars, the parties agree to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase Euro with Dollars at its principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

(c)    The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any sum due from it in any currency (the “Primary Currency”) to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the applicable Primary Currency with such other currency; if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased is less than such sum due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, each Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) against such loss, and if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit to such Borrower such excess.

SECTION 9.12. Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) (i) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding to which PPG or any other Borrower organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof is a party and (ii) 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 the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding to which any Borrower not organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof is a party, in each of the cases referred to in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) in any case arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes, 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. The Borrowers hereby consent to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties hereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Borrower at its address specified pursuant to Section 9.02. Each Designated Subsidiary 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 PPG at its address referred to in Section 9.02, and each Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably appoints PPG as its authorized agent to accept such service of process, and hereby irrevocably agrees that the failure of PPG to give any notice of any such service to such Designated Subsidiary 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 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 applicable law.

(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 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.

SECTION 9.13. Substitution of Currency. If a change with respect to Euro occurs pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental, monetary or multinational authority, this Agreement (including, without limitation, the definition of Eurocurrency Rate) will be amended to the extent determined by the Administrative Agent (acting reasonably and in consultation with PPG) to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders and the Borrowers in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change with respect to Euro had occurred.

SECTION 9.14. Designated Subsidiaries. (a) Designation. PPG may at any time and from time to time, and, if after the Effective Date, upon not less than 15 Business Days’ prior notice, by delivery to the Administrative Agent and each Lender of a Designation Letter, duly executed by PPG and a Wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary and in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto, designate such Subsidiary as a “Designated Subsidiary” for all purposes of this Agreement, and, upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III and after such Designation Letter is accepted by the Administrative Agent, such Subsidiary shall thereupon become a Designated Subsidiary for all purposes of this Agreement and, as such, shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Borrower hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each such designation by PPG and the identity of each such Designated Subsidiary. Following the giving of any notice pursuant to this Section 9.14(a), if the designation of such Designated Subsidiary obligates the Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, PPG shall, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, supply such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with the results of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations.

If PPG shall designate as a Designated Subsidiary hereunder any Subsidiary not organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, any Lender may, at its option, with notice to the Administrative Agent and PPG, make any Advance available to such Designated Subsidiary by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Advance; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of such Designated Subsidiary to repay such Advance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

As soon as practicable after receiving notice from PPG or the Administrative Agent of PPG’s intent to designate a Subsidiary as a Designated Subsidiary and in any event at least 10 Business Days prior to the delivery of an executed Designation Letter to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.14(a), for a Designated Subsidiary (other than a Pre-Approved Designated Subsidiary) that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, any Lender that may not legally, or will be subject to increased costs, including taxes, if required to, lend to, establish credit for the account of and/or do any business whatsoever with such Designated Subsidiary directly or through an Affiliate of such Lender as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph or has internal policies that preclude any such lending, establishing credit and/or doing business with respect to such Designated Subsidiary because of its jurisdiction of organization (a “Protesting Lender”) shall so notify PPG and the Administrative Agent in writing.  With respect to each Protesting Lender, PPG shall, effective on or before the date that such Designated Subsidiary shall have the right to borrow hereunder, either (i) notify the Administrative Agent and such Protesting Lender that the Commitments of such Protesting Lender shall be terminated; provided that such Protesting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances and/or Letter of Credit reimbursement obligations, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or PPG or the relevant Designated Subsidiary (in the case of all other amounts), or (ii) cancel its request to designate such Subsidiary as a “Designated Subsidiary” hereunder.

(b)    Termination. Upon the payment and performance in full of all of the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of any Designated Subsidiary under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, then, so long as at such time such Designated Subsidiary has not submitted a Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing or a notice of issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit, such Designated Subsidiary’s status as a Borrower and as a Designated Subsidiary shall terminate upon notice to such effect from the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders following its receipt of such a request from PPG). Thereafter, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall be under no further obligation to make any Advances or other extensions of credit to such Designated Subsidiary.

SECTION 9.15. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE BORROWERS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING LENDERS AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ISSUING LENDER OR ANY LENDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

SECTION 9.16. USA PATRIOT ACT. Each Lender hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title iii of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”) and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Borrower, which information includes the name and address of such Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower in accordance with said Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

SECTION 9.17. No Fiduciary Duty. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of each of the Borrowers, their stockholders and/or their Affiliates.  Each Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and any Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other.  Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and each Borrower, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Borrower, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person.  Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that such Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto.  Each Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

SECTION 9.18. Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

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

(b)    the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

SECTION 9.19. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for hedging agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

SECTION 9.20. Effect of Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement shall amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety, with the parties hereby agreeing that there is no novation of the Existing Credit Agreement and on the Effective Date, the rights and obligations of the parties under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be subsumed and governed by this Agreement. Following the Effective Date, the Revolving Credit Advances and Commitments under and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement shall no longer be in effect and thereafter only Revolving Credit Advances and Commitments under this Agreement shall be outstanding until otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms hereof.

4.    This Designation Letter has been, and each of the Notes issued by it when delivered under the Credit Agreement will have been, duly executed and delivered by it. Each of this Designation Letter and the Credit Agreement is, and each of the Notes issued by it when delivered under the Credit Agreement will be, its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights.

5.    No authorization, consent, approval, license or other action by, and no registration or filing with, any governmental agency or instrumentality is necessary in connection with the execution and performance by it of this

Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes issued by it, or for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, or the performance of or compliance with the terms and conditions hereof and thereof, except for such authorizations, consents, approvals, licenses or other actions by, and such registrations or filings with, such government agencies or instrumentalities as have been or will be timely made or obtained.

The Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as its authorized agent to receive and deliver notices in accordance with Section 9.02(c) of the Credit Agreement, and hereby irrevocably agrees that (A) in the case of any notices delivered to the Company, on behalf of the Designated Subsidiary, in accordance with Section 9.02(c) of the Credit Agreement, the failure of the Company to give any notice referred to therein to the Designated Subsidiary shall not impair or affect the validity of such notice with respect thereto and (B) in the case of a Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing or notice of Conversion delivered pursuant to Section 2.08 of the Credit Agreement by the Company, on behalf of the Designated Subsidiary, in accordance with Section 9.02(c) of the Credit Agreement, the delivery of any such notice by the Company, on behalf of the Designated Subsidiary, shall be binding on the Designated Subsidiary to the same extent as if such notice had been executed and delivered directly by the Designated Subsidiary.

The Designated Subsidiary 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 Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes issued by the Designated Subsidiary or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and 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 applicable law, in such federal court. The Designated Subsidiary hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any Lender or the Administrative Agent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to it at its address specified below its name on the signature page hereto.

The Designated Subsidiary 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 applicable law. Nothing in this Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes issued by the Designated Subsidiary shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by applicable law or to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement or any such Note in the courts of any jurisdiction.

The Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

To the extent that the Designated Subsidiary has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from 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, the Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes issued by it.

The Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement

or any of the Notes issued by it or the actions of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the negotiation, administration, performance or enforcement thereof.

JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent

By

I have acted as counsel to PPG in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement. In that connection, I have examined, or caused to be examined, the following:

I have also examined the originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of such other corporate records of PPG, certificates of public officials and of officers and representatives of PPG, and agreements, instruments and other documents, as I have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. As to questions of fact material to such opinions, I have relied upon certificates of public officials and of officers and representatives of PPG. In addition, I have examined, and have relied as to matters of fact upon, the representations and warranties made in the Credit Agreement.

In rendering the opinions below, I have assumed the due execution and delivery, pursuant to due authorization, of the Credit Agreement by each party thereto other than PPG, the genuineness of all signatures of parties other than PPG, the legal capacity of all natural persons other than officers or representatives of PPG, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, and the conformity to original documents and authenticity of all documents submitted to me as duplicates or certified or conformed copies.

My opinions expressed below are limited to the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the Federal law of the United States.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications and limitations set for herein, I am of the opinion that:

1.    PPG (a) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and subsisting under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and (b) has duly authorized, executed and delivered the Credit Agreement.

2.    The execution, delivery and performance by PPG of the Credit Agreement and the Notes, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, are within PPG’s corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and do not contravene (i) the Charter or the Bylaws, (ii) any law, rule or regulation applicable to PPG (including, without limitation, Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or (iii) to the best of my knowledge, any contractual or legal restriction contained in any document binding upon PPG.

3.    No authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Federal or Pennsylvania governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for (a) the due execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement or the Notes, (b) the borrowings by PPG in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or (c) the performance by PPG of its payment obligations under the Credit Agreement.

4.    In any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Credit Agreement or the Notes in any court of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or in any Federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, such court would likely recognize and give effect to the provisions of Section 9.09 of the Credit Agreement, wherein the parties thereto agree that the Credit Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a court of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or a Federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania would likely apply the usury law of the State of New York, and would likely not apply the usury law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, to the Credit Agreement and the Notes. However, if a court of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or a Federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania were to hold that the Credit Agreement and the Notes are governed by, and to be construed in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Credit Agreement and the Notes would be, under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, legal, valid and binding obligations of PPG enforceable against PPG in accordance with their respective terms.

5.    To the best of my knowledge, except for the Disclosed Matters, there are no pending or overtly threatened actions or proceedings against PPG or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator that purport to affect the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby or that are likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications:

(a)    My opinion in paragraph 4 above is subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency (including, without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers), reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally.

(b)    My opinion in paragraph 4 above is subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(c)    I express no opinion as to (i) Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement insofar as it provides that any Lender purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant thereto may exercise set-off or similar rights with respect to such participation and (ii) the effect of the law of any jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania wherein any Lender may be located or wherein enforcement of the Credit Agreement or the Notes may be sought that limits the rates of interest legally chargeable or collectible.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as [special] counsel to ______________ (the “Designated Subsidiary”) in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Designation Letter executed by the Designated Subsidiary.

In that connection, we have examined:

(f)    A certificate of the [Secretary of State][SPECIFY SIMILAR GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY, IF APPLICABLE] of _______________, (the “Jurisdiction”) dated _______________, 20__ attesting to the continued [corporate] existence and, to the extent such concept applies in the Jurisdiction, good standing of the Designated Subsidiary in such Jurisdiction.

We have also examined the originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies of such other corporate records of the Designated Subsidiary, certificates of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Designated Subsidiary, and agreements, instruments and other documents, as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. As to questions of fact material to such opinions, we have relied upon certificates of public officials and officers and representatives of the Designated Subsidiary.

In rendering the opinions below, we have assumed the due execution and delivery, pursuant to due authorization, of the Credit Agreement by each party thereto other than the Designated Subsidiary, the genuineness of all signatures of parties other than Designated Subsidiary, the legal capacity of all natural persons other than officers or representatives of Designated Subsidiary, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, and the conformity to original documents and authenticity of all documents submitted to us as duplicates or certified or conformed copies.

Our opinions expressed below are limited to the law of the Jurisdiction.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

1.    The Designated Subsidiary is [a corporation] duly organized [,] [and] validly existing [and in good standing] under the laws of the Jurisdiction.

2.    The execution, delivery and performance by the Designated Subsidiary of its Designation Letter, and the Notes issued by it, its performance of the Credit Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, are within the Designated Subsidiary’s [corporate] powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary [corporate] action, and do not contravene the Charter or the Bylaws.

3.    The execution, delivery and performance by the Designated Subsidiary of its Designation Letter and of the Credit Agreement and the Notes, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not contravene (i) any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Designated Subsidiary or (ii) to the best of our knowledge any contractual or legal restriction contained in any document binding on the Designated Subsidiary.

4.    The Designation Letter and each of the Notes issued by the Designated Subsidiary on the date hereof have been duly executed and delivered by the Designated Subsidiary.

5.    No authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body of the Jurisdiction is required for (a) the due execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement, the Designation Letter or the Notes by the Designated Subsidiary, (b) the borrowings by the Designated Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, or (c) the performance by the Designated Subsidiary of its payment obligations under the Credit Agreement.

6.    To the best of our knowledge, there are no pending or overtly threatened actions or proceedings against the Designated Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator that purport to affect the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of the Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, or that are likely to have a materially adverse effect upon the financial condition or operations of the Designated Subsidiary or any of its Subsidiaries.

7.    Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender is required to qualify to do business in the Jurisdiction or to comply with the requirements of any foreign lender statute in order to perform under the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes or to carry out any of the other transactions contemplated thereby or to avail themselves of the rights and remedies provided thereby, nor will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be subject to taxation in the Jurisdiction, in each case solely as the result of the performance of the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes.

8.    No stamp, registration or other similar taxes, fees or charges are or will be required to be paid in the Jurisdiction in connection with the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes.

We express no opinion as to (i) Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement insofar as it provides that any Lender purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant thereto may exercise set-off or similar rights with respect to such participation and (ii) the effect of the law of any jurisdiction other than the Jurisdiction wherein any Lender may be located or wherein enforcement of the Credit Agreement or the Notes may be sought that limits the rates of interest legally chargeable or collectible.

Very truly yours,
