Net Cash Proceeds” shall mean (a) with respect to any Asset Sale, the cash proceeds (including any cash received in respect of or upon the sale or other disposition of any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received in any Asset Sale and any cash payments received by way of deferred payment of principal pursuant to a note or installment receivable or otherwise, but only as and when received, but excluding the assumption by the acquiring Person of Indebtedness relating to the disposed assets or other consideration received in any other non-cash form) net of (i) direct costs relating to such Asset Sale and the sale or disposition of such Designated Non-Cash Consideration (including legal, accounting and investment banking fees, and brokerage and sales commissions), any relocation expenses incurred as a result thereof and taxes paid or payable as a result thereof (after taking into account any available tax credits or deductions and any tax sharing arrangements related thereto) (it being understood that to the extent any amount to be netted under this clause (i) is not known with certainty at the time any calculation of Net Cash Proceeds is made, Net Cash Proceeds shall be calculated by netting the Borrower’s good faith estimate of the relevant amount), (ii) amounts provided as a reserve, in accordance with GAAP, against any liabilities associated with the asset disposed in such transaction and retained after such sale or other disposition thereof, including pension and other post-employment benefit liabilities and liabilities related to environmental matters or against any indemnification obligations associated with such transaction (provided that, to the extent and at the time any such amounts are released from such reserve, such amounts shall constitute Net Cash Proceeds), (iii) the pro rata portion of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof (calculated without regard to this clause (iii)) attributable to minority interests to the extent not available for


14

distribution to or for the account of Holdings as a result thereof and (iv) amounts required to be applied to (x) the payment of principal, premium (if any) and interest on Indebtedness for borrowed money which is secured by such asset and which is required to be repaid with such proceeds (other than any Indebtedness assumed by the purchaser of such asset or any such Indebtedness secured by Liens on the Collateral ranking pari passu with, or junior to, the Liens securing the Bank Obligations) or (y) make any payment in respect of any Permitted Receivables Financing that is required to be made as a result of such transaction, including the related repurchase of Securitization Assets thereunder; provided, however, that, if (A) Holdings shall deliver a notice to the Administrative Agent at the time of receipt thereof electing to retain all or any portion of such proceeds for Reinvestment within 12 months of receipt of such proceeds and (B) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing at the time of delivery of such notice, such retained portion of such proceeds shall not constitute Net Cash Proceeds except to the extent not so used at the end of such 12-month period or to the extent that at any time prior to the end of such 12-month period Holdings notifies the Administrative Agent that it elects not to pursue such Reinvestment, at which time such retained portion of such proceeds shall be deemed to be Net Cash Proceeds; provided further that the aggregate cash proceeds received by Holdings or any Subsidiary in respect of the sale, transfer or other disposition of Non-Strategic Land in an aggregate amount of up to €25,000,000 shall not constitute Net Cash Proceeds; and (b) with respect to any issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness by Holdings or any Subsidiary, the cash proceeds thereof, net of all taxes and customary fees, commissions, costs and other expenses incurred in connection therewith.
(e)    Section 2.13(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“Not later than the Asset Sale Prepayment Date with respect to any Asset Sale, the Borrowers shall apply an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received with respect thereto to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(f); provided that (i) no such prepayment will be required until the Net Cash Proceeds in respect of Asset Sales received from and after the time of the immediately preceding prepayment under this clause (b) (or if no such prepayments have yet occurred, from the Closing Date) exceeds €20,000,000 and (ii) with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Borrowers may use a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay or repurchase Senior Secured Notes with Liens on the Collateral ranking pari passu with the Liens securing the Bank Obligations to the extent any applicable Senior Secured Note Indenture requires the Borrowers to prepay or make an offer to purchase such Senior Secured Notes with the proceeds of such Asset Sale, in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (1) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds and (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes with a Lien on the Collateral ranking pari passu with the Liens securing the Bank Obligations and with respect to which such a requirement to prepay or make an offer to purchase exists


15

and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Senior Secured Notes and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Net Cash Proceeds constituting Excepted Asset Sale Net Cash Proceeds shall not be required to be used to prepay Term Loans to the extent an amount equal to such Excepted Asset Sale Net Cash Proceeds (for the purpose of calculating the Net Cash Proceeds (other than any Contingent SIG Proceeds) of the SIG Sale (as defined in Amendment No. 9), the first proviso following clause (a)(iv) of the definition of “Net Cash Proceeds” shall be disregarded) is used, within 120 days after the receipt (or, if applicable, in the case of Net Cash Proceeds with respect to which Holdings has delivered a notice to the Administrative Agent electing Reinvestment, deemed receipt) thereof, to redeem, repurchase or otherwise retire (including by depositing such Excepted Asset Sale Net Cash Proceeds in a defeasance or similar trust or arrangement for the benefit of Indebtedness that has been called for redemption or otherwise defeased, satisfied or discharged) Senior Secured Notes, Senior Unsecured Notes, November 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes and/or Subordinated Notes, and to pay premiums and accrued and unpaid interest thereon and fees and expenses related thereto, it being understood that if the aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes so redeemed, repurchased or otherwise retired (or otherwise defeased, satisfied or discharged)  at the end of such 120-day period (the “Senior Secured Notes Repurchased Amount”) is less than the Target Senior Secured Debt Repayment Amount (as defined below), the Borrower shall within 4 Business Days following the end of such 120-day period prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(f) in an amount equal to the difference between the Target Senior Secured Debt Repayment Amount and the Senior Secured Notes Repurchased Amount. The “Target Senior Secured Debt Repayment Amount” shall be the aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes that needs to be repurchased in order for the Senior Secured First Lien Leverage Ratio, calculated by Holdings as of the date of receipt (or deemed receipt) of such Excepted Asset Sale Net Cash Proceeds after giving pro forma effect to the Excepted Asset Sale, the application of the Excepted Asset Sale Net Cash Proceeds to repurchase such Senior Secured Notes and otherwise to repurchase Senior Unsecured Notes, November 2013 Senior Unsecured Notes and/or Subordinated Notes, as contemplated in the previous sentence, and to any other event as to which pro forma recalculation is appropriate, not to exceed 3.50 to 1.00. The pro forma calculations supporting the calculation of the Target Senior Secured Debt Repayment Amount may include estimates with respect to the various components of the pro forma calculation. The calculation of the Target Senior Secured Debt Repayment Amount shall be certified by a Financial Officer of Holdings as having been prepared in good faith and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.”
SECTION 1.    Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness. (a) The effectiveness of this Agreement (other than the amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 4 hereof, which shall become effective as set forth in paragraph (b) below), shall occur on and as of the date of the consummation of the first Excepted Asset Sale (such date being referred to

(v)    In addition, the effectiveness of the amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 3C shall also be subject to receipt of counterparts of this Agreement that, when taken together, bear the signature of each European Revolving Credit Lender.
(b) Subject to the following sentence, the amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 4 hereof shall become effective on the date (the “Section 4 Effective Date”) on which the Administrative Agent shall have received the written consent to this Agreement of Lenders constituting the Required Lenders as of such date, provided that (i) the occurrence of the CP Date shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 4 and (ii) if the Section 4 Effective Date occurs prior to the Effective Date, the amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 4 shall not become effective until the Effective Date. For purposes of the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (x) if the Lenders executing this Agreement on or prior to the CP Date then constitute the Required Lenders, (A) the amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth in Sections 3A(a), 3B, 3C and 4 shall become effective simultaneously on the Effective Date and (B) the provisions of Sections 2 and 3A (other than Section 3A(a)) shall not become effective and shall be of no effect, such that all U.S. Term Lenders (regardless of whether any such Term Lender is an Accepting U.S. Term Lender or a Declining U.S. Term Lender) shall continue to constitute a single Class of Term Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement and all European Term Lenders (regardless of whether any such Term Lender is an Accepting European Term Lender or a Declining European Term Lender) shall continue to constitute a single Class of Term Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement and (y) if the Lenders executing this Agreement on or prior to the CP Date would constitute the Required Lenders after giving effect to the prepayment of the Tranche B-2 Term Loans as contemplated by the amendment to Section 2.13(b) of the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 3B(b) hereof, then the Section 4 Effective Date shall occur at the time on or after the Effective Date of such prepayment of the Tranche B-2 Term Loans and the amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 4 (other than the amendments set forth in Sections 4(b) and 4(c), which shall not become effective and shall be of no effect) shall become effective as of such date.
(c) The amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth in Sections 3A, 3B, 3C and 4 shall become effective at the times (and subject only to the satisfaction of the conditions) specified in Sections 5(a) and 5(b) above, respectively, without any further action or consent on the part of any party hereto or of any of its successors, transferees or assigns to or of its rights or interest in or arising under any Loan or any Loan Document. For the avoidance of


18

doubt, the consent given by a Lender on or prior to the CP Date shall bind its successors, transferees and assigns for purposes of determining whether consent from the Required Lenders, has been obtained on the Section 4 Effective Date.

It is expressly agreed by all parties to this Agreement that, notwithstanding that each such Limited Loan Party is a signatory to this Agreement, none of the Limited Loan Parties is (by so being a signatory) consenting to, confirming or otherwise acknowledging, and no Limited Loan Party shall be held liable for, any extension whatsoever of its obligations and liabilities under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document (in its capacity as a Loan Party or otherwise) in excess of, or in addition to, such obligations and liabilities as they existed with respect to such Limited Loan Party immediately prior to the Effective Date.
The Administrative Agent and the Lenders party hereto hereby agree that there shall be no breach of any representation, warranty or covenant in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents as a result of the fact that any such representation or warranty made by or with respect to (a) a Limited Loan Party or (b) a Limited Loan Party Shareholder (but only in respect of a Limited Collateral Agreement), required in any Loan Document or in any document required by any Loan Document would be untrue or incorrect (or any such covenant would be unable to be satisfied) by virtue of the fact that (i) all necessary corporate or other action may not yet have been taken to approve or authorize the extension by such Limited Loan Party of any obligation or liability on its part in respect of this Agreement (save for the purpose referred to in the first paragraph above) or the Reaffirmation Agreement referred to herein or any other amendment, supplement, or confirmation of any existing Loan Document as referred to in Section 5(a)(vi) of this Agreement or any matters relating thereto, (ii) all necessary corporate or other action may not yet have been taken by a Limited Loan Party Shareholder to approve or authorize the extension by it of its obligations under any Limited Collateral Agreement to which it is a party, or otherwise in respect of this Agreement or (iii) any existing guarantee or security interest in the Collateral (a) provided by such Limited Loan Party or (b) provided by a Limited Loan Party Shareholder under a Limited Collateral Agreement may not be legal, valid or enforceable in respect of Bank Obligations in respect of this Agreement or any such security interest is not a first priority Lien and perfected in respect thereof, and no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred as a result thereof, provided that the Loan Parties are otherwise in compliance with the obligations under Section 9 of this Agreement.
For the purposes of this Schedule II, “Limited Collateral Agreement” shall mean a Collateral Agreement entered into by a Loan Party (a “Limited Loan Party Shareholder”) in respect of the equity, stock or other membership interests of a Limited Loan Party.
