Recitals:

Agents, Lenders and Credit Parties are parties to a certain Revolving Credit and
Guaranty Agreement dated as of November 3, 2015 (as at any time amended,
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), pursuant
to which Lenders have made loans and other financial accommodations to
Borrowers, which have been guaranteed by Guarantors in accordance with the
Credit Agreement.

The Credit Parties have requested that Agents and Lenders amend certain terms of
the Credit Agreement. Agents and Lenders are willing to amend the Credit
Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby severally acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be
legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1.    Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment, unless otherwise
defined herein, shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Credit
Agreement.

2.    Amendments to Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions precedent set forth in Section 8 of this Amendment, the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(a)    By deleting the definitions of “Daily LIBOR Rate” and “Reserve
Percentage” from Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement.

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

(b)    By deleting the definition of “Alternate US Bate Rate” from Section 1.1
of the Credit Agreement and inserting in lieu thereof the following new
definition:

“Alternate US Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the
highest of (a) the US Base Rate in effect on such day, (b) the sum of the NYFRB
Rate in effect on such day plus one half of one percent (0.5%), and (c) the sum
of the LIBOR Rate for a one month Interest Period on such day (or if such day is
not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) in effect on such
day plus one percent (1.0%), provided that, for the purpose of this definition,
the LIBOR Rate for any day shall be based on the LIBO Screen Rate (or if the
LIBO Screen Rate is not available for such one month Interest Period, the
Interpolated Rate) at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time on such day, subject
to the interest rate floors set forth therein. Any change in the Alternate US
Base Rate due to a change in the US Base Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the LIBOR Rate
shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the
US Base Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the LIBOR Rate, respectively. If the Alternate
US Base Rate is being used as an alternate rate of interest pursuant to
Section 2.27 hereof, then the Alternate US Base Rate shall be the greater of
clause (a) and (b) above and shall be determined without reference to clause
(c) above. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Alternate US Base Rate shall be
less than 1.00%, such rate shall be deemed to be 1.00% for purposes of this
Agreement.

(c)    By deleting the definition of “Applicable Margin” from Section 1.1 of the
Credit Agreement and inserting in lieu thereof the following new definition:

“Applicable Margin” means:

(a)     with respect to any Type of Advance under the Domestic Facility, at any
time, the applicable percentage (on a per annum basis) set forth in the chart
below as to Domestic Rate Loans, LIBOR Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans,
CDOR Rate Loans and US Base Rate Loans, respectively:

   1.75%

(d)     By deleting the definition of “Dollar Equivalent” from Section 1.1 of
the Credit Agreement and inserting in lieu thereof the following new definition:

 

- 2 -

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

“Dollar Equivalent” of any amount means, at the time of determination thereof,
(a) if such amount is expressed in Dollars, such amount, (b) if such amount is
expressed in Pounds Sterling, Euros, or Canadian Dollars, the equivalent of such
amount in Dollars determined by using the rate of exchange for the purchase of
the Dollars with such currency in the London foreign exchange market at or about
11:00 a.m. London time (or New York time, as applicable) on a particular day as
displayed by ICE Data Services as the “ask price”, or as displayed on such other
information service which publishes that rate of exchange from time to time in
place of ICE Data Services (or if such service ceases to be available, the
equivalent of such amount in Dollars as determined by the Applicable Agent using
any method of determination it deems appropriate in its sole discretion) and
(c) if such amount is denominated in any other currency, the equivalent of such
amount in Dollars as determined by the Applicable Agent using any method of
determination it deems appropriate in its sole discretion.

(e)    By deleting the definition of “Interpolated Rate” from Section 1.1 of the
Credit Agreement and inserting in lieu thereof the following new definition:

“Interpolated Rate” means, at any time, for any Interest Period, the rate per
annum (rounded to the same number of decimal places as the LIBO Screen Rate)
determined by the Applicable Agent (which determination shall be conclusive and
binding absent manifest error) to be equal to the rate that results from
interpolating on a linear basis between: (a) the LIBO Screen Rate for the
longest period (for which the LIBO Screen Rate is available) that is shorter
than the Impacted Interest Period and (b) the LIBO Screen Rate for the shortest
period (for which the LIBO Screen Rate is available) that exceeds the Impacted
Interest Period, in each case, at such time; provided, that if any Interpolated
Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes
of this Agreement. When determining the rate for a period which is less than the
shortest period for which the LIBO Screen Rate is available, the LIBO Screen
Rate for purposes of paragraph (a) above shall be deemed to be the overnight
screen rate where “overnight screen rate” means, in relation to any currency,
the overnight rate for such currency determined by the European Administrative
Agent from such service as the European Administrative Agent may select.

(f)    By deleting the definition of “LIBOR Rate” from Section 1.1 of the Credit
Agreement and inserting in lieu thereof the following new definition:

“LIBOR Rate” means, with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan for any applicable
Interest Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to
the next 1/16 of 1%) equal to (a) the London interbank offered rate as
administered by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (or any other Person that
takes over the administration of such rate for Euros, Pounds Sterling and
Dollars (as applicable)) for a period equal in length to such Interest Period as
displayed on pages LIBOR01 or LIBOR02 of the Thomson Reuters screen that
displays such rate (or, in the event such rate does not appear on a Reuters page
or screen, on any successor or substitute page on such screen that displays such
rate, or on the appropriate page of such other information service that
publishes such rate from time to time as shall be selected by the Applicable
Agent in its reasonable discretion, in each case (the “LIBO Screen Rate”) at
approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two (2) Business Days prior to the
commencement of such Interest Period (or, with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan
denominated in Pounds Sterling, on the date of the commencement of such Interest
Period); provided that, (x) if the LIBO Screen Rate shall be less than zero,
such rate shall

 

- 3 -

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

be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and (y) if the LIBO
Screen Rate shall not be available at such time for a period equal in length to
such Interest Period (an “Impacted Interest Period”), then the LIBOR Rate shall
be the Interpolated Rate at such time, subject to Section 2.27 in the event that
the Applicable Agent shall conclude that it shall not be possible to determine
such Interpolated Rate (which conclusion shall be conclusive and binding absent
manifest error); provided further, that, if any Interpolated Rate shall be less
than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement
multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate.

(g)    By deleting the definition of “Overnight LIBOR Rate” from Section 1.1 of
the Credit Agreement and inserting in lieu thereof the following new definition:

“Overnight LIBOR Rate” means, with respect to any Overnight LIBOR Rate Loan on
any day, a rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/16 of
1%) equal to (a) the LIBO Screen Rate for overnight deposits of Euros, Pounds
Sterling or Dollars (as applicable) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on
such day; provided that (x) if the Overnight LIBOR Rate shall be less than zero,
such rate shall be deemed to be zero for all purposes of this Agreement and
(y) if the LIBO Screen Rate shall not be available at such time for such
deposits then the Overnight LIBOR Rate shall be the Interpolated Rate at such
time, subject to Section 2.27 in the event that the Applicable Agent shall
conclude that it shall not be possible to determine such Interpolated Rate
(which conclusion shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error);
provided further, that, if any Interpolated Rate shall be less than zero, such
rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement, multiplied by
(b) the Statutory Reserve Rate.

(h)    By deleting the definition of “Revolving Interest Rate” from Section 1.1
of the Credit Agreement and inserting in lieu thereof the following new
definition:

“Revolving Interest Rate” means an interest rate per annum equal to:

(a) with respect to Domestic Rate Loans, the sum of the Alternate US Base Rate
plus the Applicable Margin,

(b) with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, the sum of the LIBOR Rate plus the
Applicable Margin,

(c) with respect to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, the sum of the Canadian Prime
Rate plus the Applicable Margin,

(d) with respect to CDOR Rate Loans, the sum of the applicable CDOR Rate plus
the Applicable Margin,

(e) with respect to US Base Rate Loans, the sum of the Alternate US Base Rate
plus the Applicable Margin, and

(f) with respect to Overnight LIBOR Rate Loans, the sum of the Overnight LIBOR
Rate plus the Applicable Margin;

provided, that if the Revolving Interest Rate for any Type of Advance shall be
less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this
Agreement.

 

- 4 -

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

(i)    By adding the following new definitions to Section 1.1 of the Credit
Agreement in appropriate alphabetical order:

“Beneficial Ownership Certification” means a certification regarding beneficial
ownership as required by the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

“Beneficial Ownership Regulation” means 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230.

“Statutory Reserve Rate” means a fraction (expressed as a decimal), the
numerator of which is the number one and the denominator of which is the number
one minus the aggregate of the maximum reserve percentage (including any
marginal, special, emergency or supplemental reserves) established by the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the U.S. (the “Board”) to which
the Applicable Agent is subject with respect to the LIBOR Rate, for eurocurrency
funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency Liabilities” in Regulation D of
the Board). Such reserve percentages shall include those imposed pursuant to
such Regulation D of the Board. LIBOR Rate Loans shall be deemed to constitute
eurocurrency funding and to be subject to such reserve requirements without
benefit of or credit for proration, exemptions or offsets that may be available
from time to time to any Lender under such Regulation D of the Board or any
comparable regulation. The Statutory Reserve Rate shall be adjusted
automatically on and as of the effective date of any change in any reserve
percentage.

(j)    By deleting each reference to “Reserve Percentage” from Section 2.23 of
the Credit Agreement and inserting the phrase “Statutory Reserve Rate” in lieu
thereof in each such instance.

(k)    By deleting Section 2.27 of the Credit Agreement in its entirety and by
inserting in lieu thereof the following:

 

  2.27 Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair.

(a)    In the event that any Agent shall have determined (which determination
shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that:

(i)    adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR
Rate, Overnight LIBOR Rate or CDOR Rate (including, without limitation, by means
of an Interpolated Rate, as applicable, or because the LIBO Screen Rate is not
available or published on a current basis for the applicable currency); or

(ii)    the LIBOR Rate, Overnight LIBOR Rate or CDOR Rate will not adequately
and fairly reflect the cost to one or more Lenders of making or maintaining
their Advances (or its Advances), in each case for any Interest Period (as
applicable);

then the Applicable Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lead Borrower and the
Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter. Until
the Applicable Agent notifies the Lead Borrower and the Lenders that the
circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any such
(x) requested affected type of Advance under the Domestic Facility shall be made
as a Base Rate Loan (plus, for the purpose of calculating interest on such Base
Rate Loans, the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans), and (y) requested
affected type of Advance under the European Facility shall be made as a
Revolving Advance at a rate determined by the European Administrative Agent
which expresses a percentage rate per annum equal to the Lenders’ or applicable
Lender’s (as

 

- 5 -

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

applicable) cost of funding its or their participation in such Revolving Advance
(plus, for the purpose of calculating interest on such Advance, the Applicable
Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans or Overnight LIBOR Rate Loan, as applicable) (in
each case, a “Cost of Funds Loan”), (ii) any Advance which was to have been
converted to, or continued as, an affected type of Advance shall be converted
into a Base Rate Loan (or a Cost of Funds Loan under the European Facility), and
(iii) any outstanding affected Advances shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan
(or a Cost of Funds Loan under the European Facility), or, if the Applicable
Lead Borrower shall notify the Applicable Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. Local
Time two (2) Business Days prior to the last Business Day of the then current
Interest Period applicable to such affected type of Advance (in the case of
Fixed Rate Loans), shall be converted into an unaffected type of Advance, if
any, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period for such
affected Advance (or sooner, if any Lender cannot continue to lawfully maintain
such affected Advance). Until such notice has been withdrawn, the Lenders shall
have no obligation to make an affected type of Advance or maintain outstanding
affected Advances and no Borrower shall have the right to convert an unaffected
type of Advance into an affected type of Advance, and European Administrative
Agent may prohibit borrowings under the European Facility (but without limiting
the following clause (c) in the event an alternative rate is selected in respect
thereof).

(b)    If any Lender determines that any Requirement of Law has made it
unlawful, or if any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for
any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain, fund or continue
any type of Advance, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material
restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take
deposits of, dollars in the London interbank market or other applicable
interbank market applicable to a type of Advance, then, on notice thereof by
such Lender to the Lead Borrower through the Applicable Agent, any obligations
of such Lender to make, maintain, fund or continue the affected type of Advance
will be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the
Lead Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer
exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers will upon demand from such
Lender (with a copy to the Applicable Agent), either convert or prepay all
Advances of the affected type of such Lender to an unaffected type of Advance
(either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, as applicable, if such
Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Advances to such day, or
immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans).
Upon any such conversion or prepayment, the Borrowers will also pay accrued
interest on the amount so converted or prepaid.

(c) If at any time the Applicable 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 LIBO Screen Rate has made a
public statement that the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate is insolvent
(and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the
LIBO Screen Rate), (x) the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate has made a
public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate
will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no
successor administrator that will continue publication of the LIBO Screen Rate),
(y) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate has made a
public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate
will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published or (z) the supervisor for
the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate or a

 

- 6 -

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

Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Applicable Agent has made a
public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate
may no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the
Applicable Agent and the Borrowers shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate
of interest that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market
convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the
applicable jurisdiction 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 Margin).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.5, such amendment shall
become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to
this Agreement so long as the Applicable Agent shall not have received, within
five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is
provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Requisite Lenders stating
that such Requisite Lenders object to such amendment; provided, that, solely
with respect to the determination of the LIBO Screen Rate for currencies other
than Dollars, European Administrative Agent may require the consent of all
Lenders before such alternative rate of interest is effective with respect
thereto, and until such consent is received borrowings in the affected types of
Advances may be prohibited by European Administrative Agent. Until an alternate
rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (c) (but, in
the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of
this Section 2.27(c), only to the extent the LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest
Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any
request for the conversion of any Advance to, or continuation of any Advance as,
an affected type of Fixed Rate Loan shall be ineffective and all Advances of
affected types shall be repaid or converted into a Base Rate Loan (or a Cost of
Funds Loan under the European Facility) immediately or, as applicable, on the
last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto and (y) each
request for an affected type of Advance shall be made as a Base Rate Loan (or a
Cost of Funds Loan under the European Facility); provided that, if such
alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to
be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

(l)    By adding the following sentence to the end of Section 4.25 of the Credit
Agreement:

To the best knowledge of the Borrowers, the information included in the
Beneficial Ownership Certification most recently provided to any Lender in
connection with this Agreement is true and correct in all respects.

(m)    By deleting Section 5.1(j) in its entirety and by inserting in lieu
thereof the following:

(j)    Certain Additional Regulatory Information. (a) Promptly following any
request therefor, information and documentation reasonably requested by any
Agent or any Lender for purposes of compliance with applicable “know your
customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot
Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation; and (b) prompt written notice to
each Agent and each Lender of any change in the information provided in the
Beneficial Ownership Certification delivered to such Lender that would result in
a change to the list of beneficial owners identified in such certification.

(n)    By adding to Section 10.5(a) of the Credit Agreement a reference to “and
Section 2.27(c)” immediately following the phrase “Subject to clauses (b) and
(c) of this Section 10.5” and immediately prior to the comma first appearing in
Section 10.5(a).

 

- 7 -

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

3.    Additional Covenant; Waiver.

(a)    On or before the date that is ninety (90) days after the date hereof (or
such later date as agreed to in writing by European Administrative Agent),
Credit Parties shall, to European Administrative Agent’s reasonable
satisfaction, amend (in one amendment agreement) the definition of “Credit
Agreement” in all global assignment agreements, IP security agreements and
security transfer agreements to clarify that “Credit Agreement” includes any
future amendments, extensions, supplements and modifications from time to time
and to grant second lien account pledges which are in form and content the same
as the existing account pledges except that the definition of “Credit Agreement”
includes any future amendments, extensions, supplements and modifications from
time to time.

(b)    An Event of Default has occurred and currently exists under the Credit
Agreement as a result of Borrowers’ failure to timely deliver the Business Plan
required by Section 5.1(m) of the Credit Agreement with respect to the 2018
Fiscal Year (the “Designated Default”). Subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions precedent set forth in Section 8 hereof, Lenders hereby waive the
Designated Default as in existence on the date hereof. In no event shall such
waiver be deemed to constitute a waiver of (i) any Default or Event of Default
other than the Designated Default in existence on the date of this Amendment or
(ii) Credit Parties’ obligations to comply with all of the terms and conditions
of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents from and after the date
hereof. Notwithstanding any prior, temporary mutual disregard of the terms of
any contracts between the parties, Credit Parties hereby agree that they shall
be required strictly to comply with all of the terms of the Credit Documents on
and after the date hereof.

4.    Ratification and Reaffirmation. Each Borrower hereby ratifies and
reaffirms the Obligations, each of the Credit Documents, and all of such
Borrower’s covenants, duties, indebtedness and liabilities under the Credit
Documents. Each Guarantor hereby (i) consents to each Borrower’s execution and
delivery of this Amendment and of the other documents, instruments or agreements
each Borrower agrees to execute and deliver pursuant thereto; (ii) agrees to be
bound hereby; and (iii) affirms that nothing contained herein shall modify in
any respect whatsoever its respective guaranty of the Obligations and reaffirms
that such guaranty is and shall remain in full force and effect.

5.    Representations and Warranties. Each Credit Party represents and warrants
to Agents and Lenders, to induce Agents and Lenders to enter into this
Amendment, that (after giving effect to the waiver in Section 3(b) hereof) no
Default or Event of Default exists on the date hereof; the execution, delivery
and performance of this Amendment have been duly authorized by all requisite
action on the part of such Credit Party and this Amendment has been duly
executed and delivered by such Credit Party; and all of the representations and
warranties made by such Credit Party in the Credit Agreement (after giving
effect to the amendments contemplated by Section 2 hereof) are true and correct
on and as of the date hereof (except to the extent that any such representation
and warranty expressly relates to a particular date, in which case such
representation and warranty is true and correct on and as of such date).

6.    Reference to Credit Agreement. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment,
each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” or
words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as
amended by this Amendment.

7.    Breach of Amendment. This Amendment shall be part of the Credit Agreement
and a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant herein shall constitute
an Event of Default.

 

- 8 -

the satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent, in form and
substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, unless satisfaction thereof is

and Lender a duly executed original counterpart of this Amendment; and

(b)    Administrative Agent shall have received such other certificates,

Amendment and any other Credit Documents executed pursuant hereto and any and
all amendments, modifications, and supplements thereto, including, without
limitation, the reasonable costs and fees of Administrative Agent’s legal
counsel and any taxes, filing fees and other reasonable expenses associated with
or incurred in connection with the execution, delivery or filing of any
instrument or agreement referred to herein or contemplated hereby.

10.    Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

11.    No Novation, etc. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Amendment, nothing herein shall be deemed to amend or modify any provision of
the Credit Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, each of which shall

it be construed to create, a novation or accord and satisfaction, and the Credit
Agreement as herein modified shall continue in full force and effect.

the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
