9.1.3 Mandatory Cost, if any.

9.2 Payment of interest

The Borrower to which a Loan has been made shall pay accrued interest on that Loan on the last day of each Interest Period (and, if the Interest Period is longer than six (6) Months, on the dates falling at six monthly intervals after the first day of the Interest Period).

9.3.1 If a Borrower fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue to the fullest extent permitted by law on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which, subject to Sub-clause 9.3.2 below, is one percent. (1%) higher than the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan in the currency of the overdue amount for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Facilities Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 9.3 shall be immediately payable by the relevant Borrower on demand by the Facilities Agent.

9.3.2 If any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan:

However, each Borrower acknowledges that it has received from the Facilities Agent a letter containing an indicative calculation of the taux effectif global, based on figured examples calculated on assumptions as to the taux de période and durée de période set out in the letter. The Parties acknowledge that such letter forms part of this Agreement.

Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Facilities Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Facilities Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Company and that Obligor.

13.2.3 If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from that Obligor shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.

(a) the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a Qualifying Lender for that payment, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying Lender for that payment other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or double taxation agreement, or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority; or

(b) the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the Obligor making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Sub-clause 13.2.7 below,

provided that the exclusion for changes after the date a Lender became a Lender under this Agreement in paragraph 13.2.4(a) above shall not apply in respect of any Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed by France on a payment made to a Lender by a Borrower incorporated in France if such Tax Deduction is imposed solely because this payment is made to an account opened in the name of or for the benefit of that Lender in a financial institution situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction.

13.2.5 If an Obligor is required to make a Tax Deduction, that Obligor shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

(ii) under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party’s Facility Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,

if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party; or

(b) to the extent a loss, liability or cost:

(i) is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 13.2 (Tax gross-up); or

(ii) would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 13.2 (Tax gross-up) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Sub-clause 13.2.4 of Clause 13.2 (Tax gross-up) applied.

13.3.3 A Protected Party making, or intending to make a claim under Sub-clause 13.2.1 above shall promptly notify the Facilities Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Facilities Agent shall notify the Company.

- 52 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

13.3.4 A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from an Obligor under this Clause 13.3, notify the Facilities Agent.

13.3.5 Sub-clause 13.3.1 does not apply to the extent that any tax is attributable to any day more than six (6) months before the first date on which the relevant Finance Party became aware of the relevant Tax and the cost, loss or liability that it would suffer therefrom.

13.4 Tax Credit

If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party determines that:

13.4.1 a Tax Credit is attributable either to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, or to that Tax Payment; and

13.4.2 that Finance Party has obtained, utilised and retained that Tax Credit,

the Finance Party shall pay an amount to that Obligor which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by such Obligor.

13.5 Lender Status Confirmation

Each Original Lender confirms for the benefit of the Facilities Agent and the Borrowers that, as of the Signing Date, (i) it is a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender) or a Treaty Lender and (ii) it is not incorporated, domiciled, established or acting through a Facility Office situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction.

Each Lender which becomes a Party to this Agreement after the Signing Date shall indicate, in the Transfer Agreement or Increase Confirmation which it executes on becoming a Party, and for the benefit of the Facilities Agent and the Company, which of the following categories it falls in:

13.5.1 not a Qualifying Lender;

13.5.2 a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or

13.5.3 a Treaty Lender.

Such Lender shall also specify, in the Transfer Agreement which it executes upon becoming a Party to this Agreement, whether it is incorporated, domiciled, established, or acting through a Facility Office situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction.

If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Clause 13.5 then such New Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Borrower) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Facilities Agent which category applies (and the Facilities Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Company). For the avoidance of doubt, a Transfer Agreement or Increase Confirmation shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 13.5.

- 53 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

13.6 Stamp taxes

The Company shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Finance Party against any cost, loss or liability that Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document.

13.7.2 If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Finance Party (the “Recipient”) under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the “Subject Party”) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Party shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT. The Recipient will promptly pay to the Subject Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment obtained by the Recipient from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines is in respect of such VAT.

13.7.3 Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Finance Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

22.2.1 The consent of the Company is required for an assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender, provided that:

(a) in the case of an assignment or transfer as part of the primary syndication in accordance with the syndication strategy, and to a bank or financial institution included in the list of potential Lenders agreed between the Initial Mandated Lead Arrangers and the Company, in each case, as referred to in the Mandate Letter, no consent is required;

(b) in the case of an assignment, no consent is required if the assignment is to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender;

(c) if at any time an Event of Default pursuant to Clause 21.1 (Non-payment) has occurred and is continuing and the due date for the relevant non-payment is more than ten (10) Business Days prior to such time, no consent is required if the assignment or transfer is to an Acceptable Transferee; and

(d) the Company hereby consents to a transfer in accordance with paragraphs (a) to (c) above.

For the avoidance of doubt and for the purpose of this Clause 22.2.1, an Affiliate of a Lender includes in respect of Natixis, any member of the Group Caisse d’Epargne or Group Banques Populaires or Banque Palatine and, in respect of Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank, any member of Crédit Agricole’s group (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Caisse Regionale de Crédit Agricole).

22.2.2 The Company will be deemed to have given its consent ten (10) Business Days after the Existing Lender has requested it unless consent is expressly refused by the Company within that time.

- 79 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

22.2.3 An assignment will only be effective as among the Finance Parties on:

(a) the date falling no later than ten (10) Business Days from the receipt by the Facilities Agent of written confirmation from the New Lender (in form and substance satisfactory to the Facilities Agent) that the New Lender has become entitled to the same rights and will assume the same obligations to the other Finance Parties as it would have been under if it was an Original Lender; and

(b) performance by the Facilities Agent of all “know your customer” or other checks relating to any person that it is required to carry out in relation to such assignment to a New Lender, the completion of which the Facilities Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender.

22.2.4 A transfer will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 22.5 (Procedure for transfer or assignment) is complied with.

22.2.5 If:

(a) a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents or changes its Facility Office; and

(b) as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, a Borrower would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 13 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities) or Clause 14 (Increased Costs),

then the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Existing Lender or Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred.

22.2.6 Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Agreement, confirms, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Facilities Agent has authority to execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been approved by or on behalf of the requisite Lender or Lenders in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which the transfer or assignment becomes effective in accordance with this Agreement and that it is bound by that decision to the same extent as the Existing Lender would have been had it remained a Lender.

22.3 Assignment or transfer fee.

The New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Facilities Agent (for its own account) a fee of two thousand five hundred Euro (€ 2,500).

22.4 Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders

22.4.1 Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility to a New Lender for:

(a) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Finance Documents or any other documents;

- 80 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b) the financial condition of any Obligor;

(c) the performance and observance by any Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or any other documents; or

(d) the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document or any other document,

and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

22.4.2 Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties that it:

(a) has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document; and

(b) will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.

22.4.3 Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to:

(a) accept a re-transfer or re-assignment from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 22; or

(b) support any losses directly or indirectly incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by any Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or otherwise.

22.5 Procedure for transfer or assignment

22.5.1 Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 22.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) a transfer of rights and obligations or an assignment of rights is effected in accordance with Sub-clause 22.5.3 below when the Facilities Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facilities Agent shall, subject to Sub-clause 22.5.2 below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Agreement appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Transfer Agreement.

22.5.2 The Facilities Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Transfer Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to such New Lender.

- 81 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

22.5.3 By virtue of the execution of a Transfer Agreement, subject to Clause 22.8 (Pro rata interest settlement) as from the Transfer Date:

(a) to the extent that in the Transfer Agreement the Existing Lender seeks to transfer its rights and its obligations under the Finance Documents, the Existing Lender shall be discharged to the extent provided for in the Transfer Agreement from further obligations towards each Obligor and the other Finance Parties under the Finance Documents;

(b) the rights and obligations of the Existing Lender with respect to any Obligor shall be transferred to the New Lender, to the extent provided for in the Transfer Agreement;

(c) the Facilities Agent, the Initial Mandated Lead Arrangers, the New Lender and other Lenders shall have the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it to which it is entitled and subject as a result of the transfer and to that extent the Facilities Agent, the Initial Mandated Lead Arrangers and the Existing Lender shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and

(d) the New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender”.

22.5.4 No right (whether current, future, actual or contingent) of any Lender is capable of being transferred or assigned without a corresponding proportion of such Lender’s rights (whether current, future, actual or contingent), if any, subsisting under the Guarantee being transferred or assigned.

22.6 Copy of Transfer Agreement or Increase Confirmation to Company

The Facilities Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after it has executed a Transfer Agreement or Increase Confirmation, send to the Company a copy of that Transfer Agreement or Increase Confirmation.

22.7 Transfer by way of security to certain institutions

In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 22 (Changes to the Lenders), each Lender may, without consulting with or obtaining consent from any Obligor, at any time charge, assign or otherwise create Security in or over whether by collateral or otherwise all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender (a “Securing Lender”) to a federal reserve or central bank or any similar or assimilated refinancing body (a “Refinancing Institution”), provided that:

22.7.1 notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no such charge, assignment or other creation of security interest shall:

(a) release such Securing Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute such Refinancing Institution for the Securing Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents (in particular, as Lender under this Agreement);

- 82 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b) require any payments to be made by an Obligor other than or in excess of, or grant to any person any more extensive rights than, those required to be made or granted to any relevant Lender under the Finance Documents; and

(c) result in a transfer to such Refinancing Institution of any right or claim (whether present, future, actual or contingent) other than the right to claim payment from that Obligor, when due and payable by the that Obligor to the relevant Securing Lender, of the principal amount plus any accrued interest thereon owing by that Obligor to such Securing Lender, subject to any restrictions applicable in the case of such charge, assignment or creation of security interest to such Refinancing Institution.

22.7.2 no Refinancing Institution shall be entitled pursuant to any transfer instrument to transfer any of its rights under any Finance Document to a third party without the consent of the Company.

For the avoidance of doubt, the application of these provisions of this Clause 22.7 (Transfer by way of security to certain institutions) are not subject to any minimum amount and shall not result in any cost or fee becoming payable by any Obligor.

22.8 Pro rata interest settlement

If the Facilities Agent has notified the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a “pro rata basis” to Existing Lenders and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer or assignment pursuant to Clause 22.5 (Procedure for transfer or assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period):

22.8.1 any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time shall continue to accrue in favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date (“Accrued Amounts”) and shall become due and payable to the Existing Lender (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period (or, if the Interest Period is longer than six (6) Months, on the next of the dates which falls at six (6) Monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period); and

22.8.2 the rights assigned or transferred by the Existing Lender will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts, so that, for the avoidance of doubt:

(a) when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; and

(b) the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 22.8, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

- 83 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

22.9 Register

As of the date (if any) on which a U.S. Borrower has acceded to this Agreement in accordance with Clause 23.2 (Additional Borrower), the Obligors hereby designate the Facilities Agent, and the Facilities Agent agrees to serve as the Obligor’s agent, solely for the purposes of this Clause 22.9, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Obligors’ obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the transfer or assignment of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitments shall not be effective until (a) the requirements of Sub-clause 22.2.3 of 22.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) or Clause 22.5 (Procedure for transfer or assignment), as applicable, are fulfilled and (b) such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Facilities Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitments and Loans, and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Facilities Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Facilities Agent of a properly executed and delivered Transfer Agreement pursuant to Clause 27.5 (Procedure for transfer or assignment).

SECTION 26

SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES

26. SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES

26.1 Payments to Finance Parties

If a Finance Party (a “Recovering Finance Party”) receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 27 (Payment Mechanics) (a “Recovered Amount”) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:

26.1.1 the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days, notify details of the receipt or recovery, to the Facilities Agent;

26.1.2 the Facilities Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Facilities Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 27 (Payment Mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Facilities Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

26.1.3 the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Facilities Agent, pay to the Facilities Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Facilities Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 27.6 (Partial payments).

26.2 Redistribution of payments

The Facilities Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the “Sharing Finance Parties”) in accordance with Clause 27.6 (Partial payments) towards the obligations of that Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties.

26.3 Recovering Finance Party’s rights

On a distribution by the Facilities Agent under Clause 26.2 (Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from an Obligor, as between the relevant Obligor and the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of the Recovered Amount equal to the Sharing Payment will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor.

26.4 Reversal of redistribution

If any part of the Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party becomes repayable and is repaid to the relevant Obligor by that Recovering Finance Party through the Facilities Agent or otherwise, then:

26.4.1 each Sharing Finance Party shall, upon request of the Facilities Agent, pay to the Facilities Agent for the account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on the Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay) (the “Redistributed Amount”); and

- 95 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

26.4.2 as between the relevant Obligor and each relevant Sharing Finance Party, an amount equal to the relevant Redistributed Amount will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor provided that Obligor or a person on behalf of that Obligor (or a liquidator, administrator, administrative receiver, compulsory manager, mandataire ad hoc or other similar officer of that Obligor) shall have actually received such Redistributed Amount.

26.5 Exceptions

26.5.1 This Clause 26 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against the relevant Obligor.

26.5.2 A Recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which the Recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal or arbitration proceedings, if:

(a) it notified that other Finance Party of the legal or arbitration proceedings; and

(b) that other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings but did not do so as soon as reasonably practicable having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.

27.5.5 Any payment made by a Borrower to an Acceptable Bank pursuant to Clause 27.5.1

27.5.6 Promptly upon the appointment of a successor Facilities Agent in accordance with Clause 24.12 (Replacement of the Facilities Agent), each Party which has made a payment to a trust account in accordance with this Clause 27.5 shall give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the trust account is held to transfer the amount (together with any accrued interest) to the successor Facilities Agent for distribution in accordance with Clause 27.2 (Distributions by the Facilities Agent).

27.6 Partial payments

27.6.1 If the Facilities Agent receives a payment that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by an Obligor under the Finance Documents, the Facilities Agent shall apply that payment towards the obligations of that Obligor under the Finance Documents in the following order:

Part 5

Form of Guarantee

TO: Société Générale as Facilities Agent

Paris, [ ] 2010

Stand-alone First Demand Guarantee

The undersigned, Sanofi-Aventis, a société anonyme with a share capital of Euro 2,621,491,268, registered office 174, avenue de France – 75013 Paris (the “Guarantor”) is duly represented for the purposes of this guarantee (the “Guarantee”) by Mr. [ ], duly authorized by virtue of a decision of the Board of Directors dated [ ] 2010.

Whereas, [Bidco, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Guarantor incorporated in the State of Massachussets / any other wholly owned subsidiary of the Guarantor incorporated in France or in the State of Massachussets or any other U.S. jurisdiction agreed by the Initial Mandated Lead Arrangers], is an additional borrower (together with any of its transferee, assignee or successor in its rights and obligations as borrower under Facility B (as defined below), the “Additional Borrower”) under a facilities agreement dated 2 October 2010 (as amended, varied, novated or supplemented from time to time), by and between the Guarantor, BNP Paribas, J.P. Morgan PLC and Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking as initial mandated lead arrangers (together with any of their transferee, assignee or successor in such capacity, the “Initial Mandated Lead Arrangers”), Société Générale as facilities agent (together with any of its transferee, assignee or successor in such capacity, the “Facilities Agent”) and BNP Paribas, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited and Société Générale as original lenders (together with any of their transferee, assignee or successor in such capacity, the “Lenders”) (such facilities agreement, the “Facilities Agreement”). Pursuant to the Facilities Agreement, the Lenders have granted to the Additional Borrower a USD 5,000,000,000 term loan facility (the “Facility B”).

The Guarantor declares that it has full and complete knowledge of the terms and conditions of the Facilities Agreement.

1. The Guarantor, in accordance with article 2321 of the Civil Code, undertakes irrevocably by the present Guarantee to pay the Facilities Agent, for its own account and on behalf and for the account of the Lenders and the Initial Mandated Lead Arrangers (together with the Facilities Agent, the “Finance Parties”), unconditionally and with no right to raise any exception whatsoever, on first written demand by such Facilities Agent, any sum claimed by it, in writing, up to the Cap (as defined in Clause 12 below), subject to the provisions of this Guarantee.

2. Such payment shall be made by the Guarantor to the Facilities Agent within 5 days of receipt by the Guarantor of a request therefor sent by the Facilities Agent in its name and in the name and on behalf of any Finance Party in the form set out in Appendix A to this Guarantee (the “Request”) and notified in accordance with Clause 17 below.

- 130 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any Request shall be the conclusive evidence of the obligation to pay all sums claimed by the Facilities Agent up to the Cap.

3. Any sums due by the Guarantor under this Guarantee (the “Sums Due”) shall be paid in USD.

4. Unless the Facilities Agent has provided a written release notice (a “Release Notice”) to the Guarantor stating that the Guarantee is released in full prior to such date, the obligations of the Guarantor under the present Guarantee will remain in force until 2 July 2014, midnight Paris (France) time (the “Expiration Date”). Immediately upon the earlier of the date of the receipt by the Guarantor of any Release Notice and the Expiration Date, the present Guarantee will automatically cease to have effect as regards the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee, whether or not the original is returned to the Guarantor, and the Guarantor will no longer be obliged to make any payment under the present Guarantee other than payment of any Sums Due claimed in a Request sent by the Facilities Agent acting on behalf of the Finance Parties and received by the Guarantor prior to the Expiration Date and which are still outstanding at said date (any such outstanding amounts, “Residual Sums Due”).

5. Any payment delay after the due date of any sum due by the Guarantor to the Finance Parties under the present Guarantee will automatically entitle the Finance Parties to charge late payment interest until the date of effective payment by the Guarantor, at the rate indicated by the Facilities Agent as equating to its financing cost, expressed on an annual basis, plus 1% per annum; no other default interest will be payable in relation to the Guarantor’s obligations under the Guarantee.

6. This Guarantee can be called by the Facilities Agent on behalf of any of the Finance Parties, once or several times, and the Facilities Agent may serve multiple Requests therefor, each payment made by the Guarantor thereby reducing the Cap.

7. The present Guarantee constitutes an autonomous obligation of the Guarantor which is, in accordance with article 2321 of the Civil Code, independent from the Facility B and the Facilities Agreement or any other relations that may exist between the Guarantor, the Finance Parties and the Additional Borrower, and from the situation of the Additional Borrower.

The Guarantor shall in no event be entitled, in order to refuse or delay payment pursuant to this Guarantee, to raise any defences to payment resulting from the relationship between the Additional Borrower and any of the Finance Parties or any third party or any reason related to the Facility B, the Facilities Agreement or any other agreement. In particular, the situation of the Additional Borrower (including, without limitation of the foregoing, the Additional Borrower’s ceasing to exist as a legal entity) or the Facilities Agreement or any other document related thereto being or becoming void, terminated or otherwise unenforceable shall be without incidence on the payment obligations of the Guarantor towards the Finance Parties hereunder.

8. The present Guarantee will remain in full force and effect in all circumstances, in particular in the event that the Additional Borrower becomes insolvent or is the subject

- 131 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

of a voluntary creditors’ arrangement, any corporate recovery procedure, administration order, winding-up order or any other judicial or extra-judicial procedure aiming at the collective settlement of its liabilities, a corporate reorganization or similar processes. Notwithstanding the occurrence of such circumstances, the Guarantor will remain bound by its obligations under the present Guarantee and may not enforce against the Finance Parties any of the terms and conditions of the Facilities Agreement, any suspension of the accrual of interest or any deferred payment terms or other conditions that the Additional Borrower, or any official liquidator or administrator or any other person may be entitled to rely upon vis-à-vis the Finance Parties in connection with any such procedures or circumstances. The Guarantor moreover expressly waives its right to enforce any deferred payment terms, grace periods or waivers granted to the Additional Borrower by any judge having jurisdiction.

9. It is moreover understood that the obligation entered into by the Guarantor under this Guarantee as described above cannot be affected or amended in any way and will remain fully and entirely valid notwithstanding (i) present or future implementation of any legislative measure or any regulations of any kind issued by the public authorities of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Additional Borrower having the effect or consequence of affecting in any way the obligations of the Additional Borrower under the Facility Agreement, in particular affecting the amount, the maturity or the applicable interest rate of the Facility B, or the currency in which such Facility B is denominated or meant to be repaid, (ii) any nationalization, expropriation, confiscation or other legislative, governmental or administrative measure of any kind affecting some or all of the assets of the Additional Borrower and/or the direct or indirect interest of the Guarantor in the capital or net worth of the Additional Borrower, (iii) any war, revolution or uprising in the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Additional Borrower, or (iv) any change in the terms and conditions of the Additional Borrower’s obligations to the Finance Parties or any delay by the Facilities Agent in demanding payment from the Additional Borrower or the Guarantor.

10. This Guarantee will remain in full force and effect even if the Guarantor ceases to hold a majority of the capital and/or voting rights subsisting under equity instruments or participating securities issued by the Additional Borrower; the same will apply if the Additional Borrower is or becomes a different structure of which the Guarantor ceases to be a stockholder or partner.

In addition to its unconditional and irrevocable obligation as defined above, the Guarantor agrees to reimburse the Finance Parties on demand from the Facilities Agent accompanied by appropriate supporting documentation, all expenses including reasonable advisory and legal fees incurred in connection with the enforcement of the Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee (the “Guarantor’s Obligation to Pay Related Costs”).

11. All sums paid by the Guarantor under this Guarantee will be paid net and free of all current or future duties, levies and taxes of any kind withheld or deducted on behalf of any French or foreign tax authorities and with no set-off or counterclaim by the Guarantor against any sums owed by the Finance Parties to the Guarantor for any reason. If the Guarantor is required to withhold or deduct from the sums it owes to the Finance Parties under this Guarantee any amount in respect of any duty, levy, tax or

- 132 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

deduction of any kind, it agrees to gross-up said sums so that such Finance Parties will receive the sums that it would have received in the absence of such duty, levy, tax or deduction (the “Guarantor’s Gross-Up Obligation”).

12. All obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee are capped at an amount equal to the arithmetical sum of (i) USD 5,250,000,000 (the “Principal Amount”) and (ii) the Additional Amount (such arithmetical sum, the “Cap”), the Cap being reducible in accordance with the provisions of this Guarantee; “Additional Amount” means an amount equal to USD 275,625,000, such amount representing (i) the Guarantor’s Obligation to Pay Related Costs, (ii) the Guarantor’s Gross-Up Obligation and (iii) any default interest under this Guarantee. The Cap shall be automatically reduced by the aggregate amount of (i) any payment made by the Guarantor to the Finance Parties in accordance with the terms of this Guarantee and (ii) any amount notified in writing by the Facilities Agent to the Guarantor as being an amount in principal or the portion of any interest corresponding to the applicable margin received by the Facilities Agent from the Additional Borrower under Facility B. Any reduction of the Cap shall reduce the Guarantor’s undertaking under this Guarantee. The Guarantor’s obligation under the present Guarantee relates to any sums claimed by the Finance Parties on one or more occasions, up to the amount of the Cap, as the same may have been reduced and is remaining as of the date of the demand for payment.

13. If, at any time, the Facilities Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, the Guarantor shall instead either pay that amount direct to the required recipient or pay that amount to an interest-bearing account held with an Acceptable Bank and in relation to which no Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Guarantor and designated as a trust account (opened in a jurisdiction which recognises a trust) for the benefit of the Lenders and the Initial Mandated Lead Arrangers beneficially entitled to that payment. In each case such payments must be made on the due date for payment under this Guarantee. All interest accrued on the amount standing to the credit of the trust account shall be for the benefit of the beneficiaries of that trust account pro rata to their respective entitlements.

To the extent that the Guarantor has made a payment in accordance with this Clause 13, it shall be discharged of the relevant payment obligation under this Guarantee and shall not bear any credit risk with respect to the amounts standing to the credit of the trust account.

Any payment made by the Guarantor to the Facilities Agent:

(a) whilst not actually being aware of the fact that, at the time of such payment, the Facilities Agent is an Impaired Agent shall fully discharge the payment obligations of the Guarantor up to the amount of such payment; and

(b) whilst actually being aware of the fact that, at the time of such payment, the Facilities Agent is an Impaired Agent, shall not discharge the payment obligations of the Guarantor with respect to the amount of such payment unless and until any such amounts are actually received by the Lender or Initial Mandated Lead Arranger (other than the Impaired Agent) to whom such amounts are payable (and any such discharge shall occur only to the extent of the amounts actually received by such Lender or Initial Mandated Lead Arranger).

- 133 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any payment made by the Guarantor to an Acceptable Bank pursuant to this Clause:

(a) whilst not actually being aware of the fact that, at the time of such payment, an Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing in relation to such Acceptable Bank, shall fully discharge the payment obligation of the Guarantor up to the amount of such payment; and

(b) whilst actually being aware of the fact that, at the time of such payment, an Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing in relation to such Acceptable Bank, shall not discharge the payment obligation of the Guarantor with respect to the amount of such payment unless and until any such amounts are actually received by the Lender or Initial Mandated Lead Arranger (other than, if applicable, such Acceptable Bank in its role as Acceptable Bank and not in its role as a Lender or Initial Mandated Lead Arranger) to whom such amounts are payable (and any such discharge shall occur only to the extent of the amounts actually received by such Lender or Initial Mandated Lead Arranger).

Promptly upon the appointment of a successor Facilities Agent, if the Guarantor has made a payment to a trust account in accordance with this Clause 13, it shall give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the trust account is held to transfer the amount (together with any accrued interest) to the successor Facilities Agent.

(b) the occurrence of any other event which results in a disruption (of a technical or systems-related nature) to the treasury or payments operations of the Facilities Agent preventing the Facilities Agent:

(ii) from communicating with the Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Guarantee or with the Lenders or the Initial Mandated Lead Arrangers on behalf of which it is acting under this Guarantee,

(b) an Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Facilities Agent;

(e) has instituted against it a proceeding seeking a judgment of insolvency or bankruptcy or any other relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other similar law affecting creditors’ rights, or a petition is presented for its winding-up or liquidation, and, in the case of any such proceeding or petition instituted or presented against it, such proceeding or petition is instituted or presented by a person or entity not described in paragraph (d) above and:

14. This Guarantee shall benefit any successor, transferee or assign of any or all of the rights or obligations of any of the Finance Parties. As such, any reference in this Guarantee to the Facilities Agent or the other Finance Parties shall comprise their successors, transferees and assigns.

15. The present Guarantee will be additional to any other guarantee, indemnity or other security interest or collateral whether contractual, having arisen by operation of law or resulting from a judgment or court order and subsisting for the benefit of the Finance Parties and which such Finance Parties may enforce as it sees fit and in the order and for the amounts it sees fit without being required to provide any explanation to the Guarantor.

16. Without prejudice to Clause 13 hereof, any payment by the Guarantor following a payment request made by the Finance Parties will be validly made if made by transfer to an account, details of which shall have been notified to the Guarantor by the Facilities Agent on behalf of the Finance Parties in any Request.

Schedule 4

Mandatory Cost formulae

1. The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

2. On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Facilities Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Facilities Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

3. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Facilities Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Facilities Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

4. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Facilities Agent as follows:

in relation to a Loan in any currency other than sterling:

E × 0.01 percent. per annum.

300

Where:

E is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Facilities Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Facilities Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

5. For the purposes of this Schedule:

(a) “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

(b) “Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the Financial Services Authority Fees Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

(c) “Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and

- 142 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(d) “Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.

6. If requested by the Facilities Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Facilities Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

7. Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Facilities Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

(a) the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

(b) any other information that the Facilities Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Facilities Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

8. The rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Facilities Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 6 and 7 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Facilities Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

9. The Facilities Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 6 and 7 above is true and correct in all respects.

10. The Facilities Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 6 and 7 above.

11. Any determination by the Facilities Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

12. The Facilities Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Company and the Lenders, determine and notify to all Parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any

- 143 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.
