agrees to make Revolving Loans to Borrower in an aggregate amount up to but not exceeding the Revolving Commitment; provided, that after giving effect to the making of any Revolving Loans in no event shall the Total Utilization of Revolving
Commitments exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect. Amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.2(a) may be repaid and reborrowed during the Revolving Availability Period. The Revolving Commitment shall expire on the Revolving

Loan, and at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed Credit Date in the case of a Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan. Except as otherwise provided herein, a Funding Notice for a Revolving Loan that is a LIBO Rate Loan shall be
irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to make a borrowing in accordance therewith. 

(iii) Notice of receipt of each Funding Notice in respect of a Revolving Loan, together with the applicable interest rate, shall be
provided by Administrative Agent to each Revolving Lender in accordance with Section 10.1(b)(i) (Electronic Communications) with reasonable promptness, but (provided Administrative Agent shall have received such notice by 12:00
p.m. (New York City time)) not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the same day as Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Notice from Borrower. 

(iv) Each Revolving Lender shall make its share of the amount of the Revolving Loan available to Administrative Agent not later than 1:00

herein, Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such Revolving Loans available to Borrower on the applicable Credit Date by causing an amount of immediately available funds equal to the proceeds of all such Revolving Loans received by
Administrative Agent from the Revolving Lenders to be (A) credited to the Operating Account, Local Discretionary Capex Account (as defined in the Depositary Agreement), Local Operating Account (as defined in the Depositary Agreement) or the
Local Distribution Account as required 

  
 52 







 
by the Depositary Agreement or (B) paid directly to the applicable payee, provided that with respect to any borrowing of a Revolving Loan made on a Funding Date, Administrative Agent
will make such funds available to Borrower in accordance with the applicable Funds Flow Memorandum. 
 (v) Each Revolving Lender at its
option may make any Revolving Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Revolving Lender to make such Revolving Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of Borrower to repay
such Revolving Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and provided, further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, each Revolving Lender exercising such option shall continue to be required to comply with its obligations
under Section 2.22 (Obligation to Mitigate).

upon the request of Borrower delivered to the applicable Issuing Bank during the period specified in Section 2.3(a) (with a copy to Administrative Agent) in the form of an Issuance Notice, appropriately completed and signed by an Authorized
Officer of Borrower. Such Issuance Notice or Letter of Credit application, as applicable, must be received by the applicable Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least two Business Days (or such
later date and time as Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an

Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof (including a final expiration date in the case of an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit); (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof;

certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit, which shall be in accordance with Section 2.5(c) (Use of Proceeds), or as otherwise
approved by the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion; and (H) such other matters as the applicable Issuing Bank may reasonably require and shall be accompanied by such application as the applicable Issuing Bank may specify to Borrower for use in
connection with such requested Letter of Credit and such other information as shall demonstrate compliance of such Letter of Credit with the requirements specified in this Agreement and the relevant application. In the case of a request 


  
 55 







 
for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Issuance Notice or Letter of Credit application, as applicable, shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable Issuing
Bank (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the applicable Issuing Bank may
reasonably require and shall be accompanied by such application as the applicable Issuing Bank may specify to Borrower for use in connection with such requested Letter of Credit and such other information as shall demonstrate compliance of such
Letter of Credit with the requirements specified in this Agreement and the relevant application. Additionally, Borrower shall furnish to the applicable Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such
requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the applicable Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent may reasonably require. 

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Issuance Notice and/or Letter of Credit application, as applicable, the applicable Issuing Bank will
confirm with Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Issuance Notice and/or Letter of Credit application, as applicable, from Borrower and, if not, such Issuing Bank will provide
Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the applicable Issuing Bank has received written notice from Administrative Agent or any Credit Party, in any case, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of
the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 3 (Conditions Precedent) shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the applicable Issuing Bank shall, on the
requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices and, with respect to any
amendment of a Letter of Credit, so long as the amendment is satisfactory to the Issuing Bank. 
 (iii) If Borrower so requests in
any applicable Issuance Notice and/or Letter of Credit application, as applicable, the applicable Issuing Bank shall issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”);
provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior
notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a date to be agreed in each such twelve-month period at the time such Letter of Credit is issued (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”). Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been
issued, unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Bank, Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the applicable Issuing
Bank shall permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the applicable Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if
(A) such Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause
(ii) or (iii) of Section 2.3(a) (Letter of Credit Commitment) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the
Non-Extension Notice Date from Administrative Agent or Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3 (Conditions Precedent) is not then satisfied (or a Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing), and in each such case directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.  

  
 56 







 (iv) Subject to Section 2.3(a)(iii)(E) (Letter of Credit
Commitment), if Borrower so requests in any applicable Issuance Notice and/or Letter of Credit application, as applicable, the applicable Issuing Bank shall issue a Letter of Credit that permits the automatic reinstatement of all or a
portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder (each, an “Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit”). Once an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued, unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing
Bank in its sole discretion, Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank to permit such reinstatement. Once an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued, except as provided in the following sentence, the
applicable Issuing Bank shall permit the reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit permits
such Issuing Bank to decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of days after such drawing (the “Non-Reinstatement
Deadline”), such Issuing Bank shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Reinstatement Deadline from
Administrative Agent or Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3 (Conditions Precedent) is not then satisfied (or a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) (treating
such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes of this clause) and, in each case, directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such reinstatement. 

(v) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable
Issuing Bank will also deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 
 (vi)
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event of any conflict between the terms of any Issuance Notice, any application for a Letter of Credit and those of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall be controlling. 

(c) Drawings and Reimbursements. 

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing
Bank shall notify Borrower and Administrative Agent. Not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of any payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit in accordance with normal banking procedures in the place of
payment (each such date, an “Honor Date”), Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Bank in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If Borrower fails to so reimburse such Issuing Bank by such time, such Issuing Bank shall notify
the Administrative Agent of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”) and the Commitment under which such Unreimbursed Amount applies. In such event, Borrower shall be deemed to have
requested a DSR Loan (in the case of a DSR Letter of Credit) or a Revolving Loan (in the case of a WC Letter of Credit) from such 

  
 57 







 
Issuing Bank, in either case, that is a Base Rate Loan to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in
Section 2.2 (Revolving Loans) for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans or the conditions set forth in Section 3 (Conditions Precedent). Any notice given by an Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent pursuant to this
Section 2.3(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

(ii) Upon providing any notice pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(i), the applicable Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have made a DSR Loan (in
the case of a DSR Letter of Credit) or a Revolving Loan (in the case of a WC Letter of Credit), in either case, that is a Base Rate Loan to Borrower in such Unreimbursed Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, such deemed loans shall not be deemed to be
made pro rata across all DSR Issuing Banks or all WC Issuing Banks, as applicable, but shall be deemed made by the Issuing Bank issuing the Letter of Credit under which such draw was made. 

(iii) [Reserved]. 
 (iv) Each
applicable Issuing Bank’s obligation to make DSR Loans (in the case of a DSR Letter of Credit) or Revolving Loans (in the case of a WC Letter of Credit), in either case, as contemplated by this Section 2.3(c), shall be absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Issuing Bank may have against Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person for any
reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default; (C) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection
with the application for and issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (D) failure of the beneficiary to comply fully with the
conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit; or (E) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any of the events specified in Section 2.3(e)
(Obligations Absolute). No such making of a DSR Loan (in the case of a DSR Letter of Credit) or a Revolving Loan (in the case of a WC Letter of Credit), in either case, shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Borrower to reimburse
the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of any payment made by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 

(d) Cash Collateralization Upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default under
Article 8, Administrative Agent may, and at the direction of the Requisite L/C Lenders shall, require Borrower to cash collateralize the DSR Letters of Credit or WC Letters of Credit, as applicable; provided, that the Borrower shall have
the right to (i) deposit such cash collateral into the Debt Service Reserve Account and (ii) in connection therewith, reduce the Stated Amounts of all DSR Letters of Credit on a pro rata basis in accordance with Section 3.5 (Debt
Service Reserve Account) of the Depositary Agreement. 
 (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse
the applicable Issuing Bank for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each DSR Loan (in the case of a DSR Letter of Credit) or Revolving Loan (in the case of a WC Letter of 

  
 58 







 
Credit), in either case, deemed made pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(ii) (Drawings and Reimbursements) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: 
 (i) any lack of validity or
enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Financing Document; 
 (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim,
setoff, defense or other right that Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing
Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; 

(iv) waiver by the Issuing Bank of any requirement that exists for the Issuing Bank’s protection and not the protection of Borrower or
any waiver by the Issuing Bank which does not in fact materially prejudice Borrower; 
 (v) honor of a demand for payment presented
electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft; 
 (vi) any payment made by the Issuing Bank
in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under, such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC or the ISP,
as applicable; 
 (vii) any payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or
certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the applicable Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee
for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; 

(viii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent or departure from all or any of the provisions of the Financing Documents or Letter of
Credit; 
 (ix) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of
Borrower or any Subsidiary; or 

  
 59 







 (x) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower or any Subsidiary. 

Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any
claim of noncompliance with Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, Borrower will immediately notify the applicable Issuing Bank. Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against such Issuing Bank and its
correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
 (f) Role of an Issuing Bank. Borrower agrees that, in paying any drawing
under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the
validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of
Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.
None of the Issuing Banks, Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any Issuing Bank shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through
(ix) of Section 2.3(e) (Obligations Absolute); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower may have a claim against any Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank may be liable
to Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by Borrower which Borrower proves were caused by such Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such
Issuing Bank’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of all the documents specified in such Letter of Credit strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In
furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, any Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such
Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part,
which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. The Issuing Bank may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication
(“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary. 

(g) Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and Borrower when a Letter of Credit is
issued or when it is amended with the consent of the beneficiary thereof, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit and as to all matters not governed thereby, the law of the State of New York. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
Issuing Bank shall be responsible to Borrower for, and each Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of such Issuing Bank required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that
is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction 

  
 60 







 
where such Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission,
the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice. 

(h) Letter of Credit Fees. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Issuing Bank, a Letter of Credit
fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit applicable to such Issuing Bank equal to the Applicable Margin for DSR Loans (in the case of DSR Letters of Credit) or Revolving Loans (in the case of WC
Letters of Credit), in each case, that are LIBO Rate Loans times the daily maximum aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. For purposes of computing the daily maximum aggregate amount available to be drawn under
any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.4 (Letter of Credit Amounts). Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on each Quarterly Payment Date (commencing
with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit), on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand (to the extent remaining unpaid) and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. If there is any
change in the Applicable Margin during any quarter, the daily maximum aggregate amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin separately for each period during such quarter that
such Applicable Margin was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of Issuing Banks having aggregate Letter of Credit Issuance Commitments in excess of 50% of all of the aggregate Letter of Credit
Issuance Commitments, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Letter of Credit Fees Default Rate. 

(i) Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to applicable Issuing Bank. Borrower shall pay directly to the applicable Issuing Bank,
for its own account, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank as from time to time in
effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges, if any, are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 
 (j) Conflict
with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control. 

(k) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of
any obligations of a Subsidiary, Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby acknowledge that the issuance of
Letters of Credit in support of any obligations of Subsidiaries, inures to the benefit of Borrower and such Subsidiaries, and that Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries. 

  
 61 







 (l) Resignation as Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may, upon 60 days’ notice to
Borrower and Administrative Agent, resign as Issuing Bank. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Bank, Borrower or, if the Borrower fails to make such appointment in 30 days, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to appoint a Person with
the Required Ratings who is also an Eligible Assignee and reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent as a successor Issuing Bank hereunder. If any Issuing Bank resigns as Issuing Bank, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of an Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit that it issued, including Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto. Upon the
appointment of a successor Issuing Bank, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank, (b) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit
in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of such Issuing Bank with respect to such
Letters of Credit and (c) the resigning Issuing Bank shall assign its Letter of Credit Issuance Commitment to issue Letters of Credit and DSR Loans and Revolving Loans, as applicable, to such successor Issuing Bank. 

(m) Replacement of Issuing Banks. 

(i) If at any time an Issuing Bank ceases to have the Required Ratings, then such Issuing Bank shall promptly, and in any event within two
Business Days after such cessation, notify Borrower thereof and Borrower may, upon 30 days’ prior written notice, in each case, to such Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent, (A) (x) elect to replace such Issuing Bank in its capacity
as an Issuing Bank with a Person selected by Borrower and with the Required Ratings so long as such Person is an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and (y) cause such Issuing Bank to assign its Letter of
Credit Issuance Commitment to issue Letters of Credit and its DSR Loans and Revolving Loans, as applicable, to the successor Issuing Bank or (B) cause such Issuing Bank to assign its Letter of Credit Issuance Commitment to issue DSR Letters of
Credit and its DSR Loans or WC Letters of Credit and Revolving Loans, as applicable, to another or additional Issuing Bank selected by Borrower and with the Required Ratings, so long as such Person is an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably
satisfactory to Administrative Agent; and 
 (ii) Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of any such replacement of an Issuing
Bank pursuant to paragraph (i) above. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, Borrower shall have (A) paid all unpaid fees and Unreimbursed Amounts accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to
Section 2.10 (Fees) and (B) effected the cancellation and return to the replaced Issuing Bank of its Letters of Credit outstanding at such time. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (1) the
successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (2) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank”
shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of a Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain
a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement but shall not be required to issue additional
Letters of Credit. 

  
 62 







 (n) No Fronting. For certainty, the ability of the Credit Parties to cause the issuance of
Letters of Credit under the DSR Commitment and/or Revolving Commitment is intended hereunder to be done on a non-fronted basis. 
 2.4
Pro Rata Shares; Availability of Funds. 
 (a) Pro Rata Shares. 

(i) All Term Loans shall be made by Term Loan Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares. 

(ii) All Revolving Loans made pursuant to Section 2.2 (Revolving Loans) shall be made by Revolving Lenders simultaneously and
proportionately such that after giving effect to such Revolving Loans, Outstanding Amount of each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations shall equal their Pro Rata Shares of the aggregate Revolving Commitments. If, as a result
of a WC Issuing Bank having issued WC Letters of Credit on a non pro rata basis pursuant to Section 2.3 (Letters of Credit) the Outstanding Amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations is in excess of its
Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Revolving Commitments, then any subsequent Revolving Loans made pursuant to Section 2.2 (Revolving Loans) shall be made by any Revolving Lenders whose Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans and L/C
Obligations is less than its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Revolving Commitments until such time as the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations of all Revolving Lenders equals its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Revolving
Commitments. 
 (iii) No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a
Loan in respect of which such other Lender has a Commitment requested hereunder nor shall any Term Loan Commitment or any Revolving Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other
Lender’s obligation to make a Loan in respect of which such other Lender has a Commitment requested hereunder. 
 (b) Availability
of Funds. Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Term Lender or Revolving Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such Term Lender or Revolving Lender, as the case may be, does not intend to make available to
Administrative Agent the amount of such Term Lender’s or Revolving Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Term Lender or Revolving Lender, as the case may be, has made such amount available
to Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount on such Credit Date (any such amount made available by Administrative
Agent to Borrower, the “Corresponding Amount”). If such Corresponding Amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Term Lender or Revolving Lender, as the case may be, Administrative Agent shall be entitled
to recover such Corresponding Amount on demand from such Term Lender or Revolving Lender, 

  
 63 







 
as the case may be, together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by Administrative
Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. In the event that Administrative Agent does not make available to Borrower a requested amount on the applicable Credit Date until such time as
all applicable Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have made payment to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of a Term Lender or Revolving Lender, as the case may be, hereunder that is
not made in immediately available funds prior to the time period specified herein and such delay causes Administrative Agent’s failure to fund to Borrower in accordance with its Funding Notice, a non-conforming payment and such Term Lender or
Revolving Lender, as the case may be, shall not receive interest hereunder with respect to the requested amount of such Term Lender’s or the Revolving Lender’s Loans for the period commencing with the time specified in this Agreement for
receipt of payment by Borrower through and including the time of Borrower’s receipt of the requested amount. If such Term Lender or Revolving Lender, as the case may be, does not pay such Corresponding Amount forthwith upon Administrative
Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Borrower shall immediately pay such Corresponding Amount to Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date
such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the rate payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans for such Loans. Nothing in this Section 2.4(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Term Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Term Loan Commitments or
any Revolving Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Revolving Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Term Lender or Revolving Lender hereunder. 

2.5 Use of Proceeds. 

(a) Term Loans. 
 (i)
The proceeds of the Term Loans made on the CCTP Funding Date shall be applied by Borrower in accordance with the applicable Funds Flow Memorandum (A) to make an equity contribution and cause CCTP to prepay in full the CCTP Existing
Indebtedness; (B) to pay transactions fees and expenses related to the foregoing and to the Financing Documents (including pursuant to the Fee Letters); and (C) for general corporate purposes. 

(ii) The proceeds of the Term Loans made on the SPLNG Funding Date shall be applied by Borrower in accordance with the applicable Funds Flow
Memorandum (A) to make an equity contribution and cause SPLNG to optionally redeem all (but not less than all) of the SPLNG Senior Notes; and (B) to pay transaction fees and expenses related to the foregoing. 

(b) Revolving Loans. 

(i) The proceeds of the Revolving Loans made on the CCTP Funding Date or the SPLNG Funding Date shall be applied by Borrower, in accordance
with the applicable Funds Flow Memorandum, solely to pay transactions fees, make-whole amounts (if applicable) and expenses in connection with repaying the CCTP Existing Indebtedness or redeeming the SPLNG Senior Notes, respectively. 

  
 64 







 (ii) The proceeds of the Revolving Loans made on a Quarterly Payment Date shall be applied by
Borrower to pay Commitment Fees or Letter of Credit Fees on a DSR Letter of Credit issued to fund the Debt Service Reserve Account. 

(iii) The proceeds of the Revolving Loans made on any date other than a Funding Date or a Quarterly Payment Date shall be applied by Borrower
for general corporate purposes of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including (A) Restricted Payments, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.17 (Restricted Payments) and the Restricted Payments Sublimit, or (B) and,
subject to Section 6.5 (Investments), financing the development, construction, or operation of any project owned by an Unrestricted Subsidiary for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (including for purposes
relating to projects owned by the Unrestricted Subsidiaries). 
 (c) Letters of Credit. 

(i) DSR Letters of Credit issued on a Funding Date shall be applied by Borrower to fund the Debt Service Reserve Account. 

(ii) WC Letters of Credit issued on any date other than a Funding Date shall be applied by Borrower (A) to fund the Debt Service Reserve
Account or (B) for general corporate purposes of Borrower and its Subsidiaries. 
 2.6 Evidence of Debt; Register; Lenders’
Books and Records; Notes. 
 (a) Lenders’ Evidence of Debt. Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall maintain on its internal
records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of Borrower to such Lender or Issuing Bank, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and
binding on Borrower, absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s or Issuing Banks’ Term Loan Commitment, Revolving Commitment or DSR
Commitment or Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any applicable Loans; and provided further, in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s records, the recordations in the Register
shall govern. 
 (b) Register. Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall maintain at its Principal
Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of all Lenders and Issuing Banks; the Term Loan Commitment, Revolving Commitment or DSR Commitment and Loans of each Lender and Issuing Bank; and principal amounts (and stated
interest) of the Loans owing to each Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender or Issuing Bank (with respect to
(i) any entry relating to such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s Loans or L/C Obligations or (ii) the identity of the other Lenders and Issuing Banks (but not any information with respect to such other Lenders’ or Issuing
Bank’s Loans or L/C Obligations)) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Administrative Agent 

  
 65 







 
shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Term Loan Commitments, Revolving Commitments or DSR Commitments and the Loans in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations), and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower, each Lender and each Issuing
Bank, absent manifest error; provided, that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s Term Loan Commitment, Revolving Commitment or DSR Commitment or
Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loan. Borrower hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as Borrower’s non-fiduciary agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.6, and Borrower
hereby agrees that, to the extent Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.” 

(c) Notes. If so requested by any Lender or Issuing Bank by written notice to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) at
least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender or Issuing Bank (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such
Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 10.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations)) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after receipt by Borrower of such notice) a Note or Notes to
evidence such Lender’s Term Loan or such or Issuing Bank’s DSR Loan or Revolving Loan, as the case may be. 
 2.7
Interest on Loans. 
 (a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount
thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows: 
 (i) without duplication
of amounts payable in connection with Section 2.7(f) (Interest on Loans), in the case of Revolving Loans: 
 (A) if a
Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or 
 (B) if a LIBO Rate Loan, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus
the Applicable Margin; 
 (ii) in the case of Term Loans: 

(A) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or 

(B) if a LIBO Rate Loan, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or 

(iii) without duplication of amounts payable in connection with Section 2.7(f) (Interest on Loans), in the case of DSR
Loans: 

  
 66 







 (A) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or 

(B) if a LIBO Rate Loan, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 

(b) The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan, and the Interest Period with respect to any LIBO Rate Loan, shall
be selected by Borrower and notified to Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be. 

(c) In connection with LIBO Rate Loans there shall be no more than four (4) Interest Periods outstanding at any time with respect to the
Term Loans and no more than six (6) Interest Periods outstanding at any time with respect to Revolving Loans and/or DSR Loans. In the event Borrower fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a LIBO Rate Loan in the applicable Funding Notice
or Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Loan (if not then outstanding, will be made as (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan will remain as) a Base Rate Loan, or if outstanding as a LIBO Rate Loan, will be automatically converted into a Base Rate
Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan. In the event Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any LIBO Rate Loan in the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected an Interest Period of one month. As soon as practicable after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final,
conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBO Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by
telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and each Lender. 
 (d) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.7(a) (Interest on
Loans) shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360 day year, in each case for the actual number of days
elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Term Loan, the last Interest Payment Date with
respect to such Term Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a LIBO Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBO Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date
of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a LIBO Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such LIBO Rate Loan, shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is repaid on
the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan. 
 (e) Except as otherwise set forth herein,
interest on each Loan (i) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to interest accrued on and to each such payment date; (ii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be
payable in arrears upon any prepayment of that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (iii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears at maturity of the Loans, including
final maturity of the Loans; provided, however, with respect to any voluntary prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, accrued interest shall instead be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date. 

  
 67 







 (f) Without duplication of any amounts payable under Section 2.7(a)(i) (Interest
on Loans) or 2.7(a)(iii) (Interest on Loans), Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank, with respect to drawings honored under any Letter of Credit, interest on the amount paid by such Issuing Bank in respect of each such honored
drawing from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower at a rate equal to (i) for the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date that is one
Business Day immediately following the date on which such drawing is honored, the rate of interest otherwise payable hereunder with respect to DSR Loans (in the case of DSR Letters of Credit) or Revolving Loans (in the case of WC Letters of Credit),
in either case, that are Base Rate Loans, and (ii) thereafter, a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable hereunder with respect to DSR Loans (in the case of DSR Letters of Credit) or Revolving
Loans (in the case of WC Letters of Credit), in either case, that are Base Rate Loans.  
 (g) Interest payable pursuant to
Section 2.7(f) (Interest on Loans) shall be computed on the basis of a 365/366 day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is made, on the date on
which the related drawing under a Letter of Credit is reimbursed in full.  
 2.8 Conversion/Continuation. 

(a) Subject to Section 2.17 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans) and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and then be continuing. 
 (i) Borrower shall have the option to convert at any time all or any part of any
Revolving Loans, equal to $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided, a LIBO Rate Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period
applicable to such LIBO Rate Loan if Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.17 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Loans) in connection with any such conversion; or 

(ii) Borrower shall have the option to convert at any time all or any part of any Term Loan, equal to $5,000,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided, a LIBO Rate Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBO Rate Loan if Borrower shall pay
all amounts due under Section 2.17 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Loans) in connection with any such conversion;  

(iii) Borrower shall have the option to convert at any time all or any part of any DSR Loans, equal to $2,000,000 and integral
multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided, a LIBO Rate Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBO Rate Loan if Borrower shall pay
all amounts due under Section 2.17 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Loans) in connection with any such conversion; or 

  
 68 







 (iv) in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, Borrower shall have the option upon the expiration of any
Interest Period applicable to any LIBO Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to (A) in the case of the Term Loans or Revolving Loans, $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount as a LIBO Rate
Loan and (B) in the case of DSR Loans, $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount as a LIBO Rate Loan. 

(b) Subject to Section 3.5 (Notices), Borrower shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to Administrative Agent no later than 12:00
p.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of
a conversion to, or a continuation of, a LIBO Rate Loan). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any LIBO Rate Loans shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate
Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith. If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to
Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. 

2.9 Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the principal amount of all Loans
outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder (including Letter of Credit Fees (“Letter of Credit Fees Default Rate”)), shall thereafter
bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws) payable on demand at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in
the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans that are DSR Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable); provided, in the case of
LIBO Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such LIBO Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a
rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.09 (Default Interest)
is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank. 

2.10 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in subsections (h) and (i) of Section 2.3 (Letters of Credit):

 (a) Borrower agrees to pay to Lenders or Issuing Banks, as applicable, having: (i) Term Loan Commitments, commitment fees equal to
40% of the Applicable Margin for LIBO Rate Loans multiplied by the average of the daily difference between (A) the Term Loan Commitments and (B) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Term Loans; (ii) DSR Exposure,
commitment fees equal to 40% of the Applicable Margin for LIBO Rate Loans multiplied by the average of the daily difference between (A) the DSR Commitments and (B) the 

  
 69 







 
aggregate principal amount of (x) all outstanding DSR Loans, plus (y) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations applicable to DSR Commitments; and (iii) Revolving Exposure,
commitment fees equal to 40% of the Applicable Margin for LIBO Rate Loans multiplied by the average of the daily difference between (A) the Revolving Commitments and (B) the aggregate principal amount of (x) all outstanding Revolving
Loans, plus (y) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations applicable to the Revolving Commitments (collectively, “Commitment Fees”). 

(b) All Commitment Fees shall be paid to Administrative Agent at its Principal Office and upon receipt, Administrative Agent shall promptly
distribute to each applicable Lender or Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share thereof. 
 (c) All Commitment Fees shall be calculated on the basis
of a 360 day year and the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year during the Revolving Availability Period, commencing on the first such
date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date. 
 (d) In addition to any of the foregoing fees,
Borrower agrees to pay to Agents and Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders and Issuing Banks such other fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon (including pursuant to the Fee Letters). 

2.11 Scheduled Payments. The principal amounts of the Term Loans shall be repaid in consecutive quarterly
installments and at final maturity (each such payment, an “Installment”) in accordance with the Amortization Schedule, commencing with the Initial Quarterly Principal Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(x) such Installments shall be reduced in connection with any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans, in accordance with Sections 2.12 (Voluntary Prepayments/Commitment Reductions), 2.13 (Mandatory Prepayments;
Commitment Termination) and 2.14 (Application of Prepayments), as applicable; and (y) the Term Loans, together with all other amounts owed hereunder with respect thereto, shall, in any event, be paid in full no later than the Final

designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments or DSR Commitments shall be effective on the date specified
in Borrower’s notice and shall reduce the Revolving Commitment or DSR Commitments, as applicable, of each Revolving Lender and/or Issuing Bank proportionately to its Pro Rata Share thereof; provided, that any such termination or
reduction may be conditioned on the occurrence of any subsequent event (including a refinancing transaction). 
 2.13 Mandatory
Prepayments; Commitment Termination. 
 (a) Asset Sales. No later than the third Business Day following the date of receipt by
Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantors of any Net Asset Sale Proceeds, Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.14(b) (Application of Mandatory Prepayments by Type of Loans) in an aggregate amount equal to such Net

Business Day following the date of receipt by Borrower or any of its Subsidiary Guarantors, or Administrative Agent as loss payee, of (i) any Prepayment Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or (ii) any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds (other
than Prepayment Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excluded Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds), Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.14(b) (Application of Mandatory Prepayments) in an aggregate amount equal to the
Prepayment Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or the Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds (other than Prepayment Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or Excluded Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds); provided that the Borrower shall have the option,
directly or through one or more of its Subsidiary Guarantors, to use any such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds to (A) repay Permitted Debt of the Credit Party that received such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds so long as no Default or

Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Independent Engineer and the Insurance Advisor) or waived by the Requisite Lenders within ninety (90) days of the applicable Event of Loss or Event of Taking. 

(c) Certain Payments from Anchor Customers. No later than the third Business Day following the date of receipt by any Credit Party of
any payment from or on behalf of any Anchor Customer or any Person providing a guarantee or credit support to such Anchor Customer from any settlement, release, waiver, termination, buy-down, surrender or similar action in respect of the terminal
use agreement or guarantee or credit support of the terminal use agreement (a “TUA Buy-Down Proceeds”), Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.14(b) (Application of Mandatory Prepayments by Type of
Loans) in an aggregate amount equal to such payment. 
 (d) Prepayment Certificate. Concurrently with any prepayment of
the Loans and/or reduction of the Commitments pursuant to Sections 2.13(a) (Asset Sales), 2.13(b) (Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds) or 2.13(c) (Certain Payments from Anchor Customers), Borrower shall deliver to Administrative
Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the calculation of the amount of the applicable net proceeds. In the event that Borrower shall subsequently determine that the actual amount received exceeded the amount set forth in such
certificate, Borrower shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans and/or the Commitments shall be permanently reduced in an amount equal to such excess, and Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to Administrative Agent a
certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the derivation of such excess.  
 (e) Commitment Termination. 

  
 72 







 (i) If the CCTP Funding Date does not occur within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date,

(ii) If the SPLNG Funding Date does not occur by December 7, 2016, each Lender’s SPLNG Tranche Commitment and the unused amount of
the Revolving Commitment then in effect shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m. on December 7, 2016. 
 2.14 Application of
Prepayments. 
 (a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments. With respect to each prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.12(a)
(Voluntary Prepayments) and this Section 2.14(a), on the date specified in the notice of prepayment delivered pursuant to Section 2.12(a)(ii) (Voluntary Prepayments), such prepayment of the Loans (other than the DSR Loans and
Revolving Loans) shall be applied pro rata to: 
 (i) the principal of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the Loans to be prepaid;

 (ii) any additional amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.17(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of
Interest Periods); and 
 (iii) except for amounts to be paid to the Lender Counterparties pursuant to the Permitted Hedging Agreements as
set forth immediately below, any other Obligations due in connection with any prepayment under the Financing Documents. 
 Payments
of principal of the Loans will be applied pro rata against subsequent scheduled payments or in inverse order of maturity, at the Borrower’s option. 

Additionally, the Borrower shall pay, on a pro rata basis with the payments required under clause (a)(i), (ii) and
(iii) above, to the Lender Counterparties to the Permitted Hedging Agreements the Hedging Termination Values payable in respect of any Permitted Hedging Agreements to be terminated in connection with such prepayment in accordance with
Section 2.14(c) (Termination of Permitted Hedging Agreements in Connection with Any Prepayment), which terminated Permitted Hedging Agreements shall be specified by the Borrower in the notice of prepayment. 

(b) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Sections 2.13(a) (Asset Sales),
2.13(b) (Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds) or 2.13(c) (Certain Payments from Anchor Customers) shall be applied as follows: 

(i) the principal of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the Term Loans; provided that if at the time any amount is required
to be paid pursuant to Section 2.13(a) (Asset Sales), 2.13(b) (Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds) or 2.13(c) (Certain Payments from Anchor Customers), Borrower is required to offer to repay, prepay or repurchase any Senior
Secured Debt permitted by Section 6.1 (Indebtedness) pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Senior Secured Debt (subject to any applicable thresholds or  

  
 73 







 
carve-outs set forth therein) with any Net Asset Sale Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or TUA Buy-Down Proceeds (such Indebtedness required to be offered to be so repaid, prepaid
or repurchased, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then Borrower may apply such Net Asset Sale Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds or TUA Buy-Down Proceeds, as applicable, on a pro rata basis subject to the
Intercreditor Agreement (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of such Cash proceeds allocated to Other Applicable
Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such Cash proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such Cash proceeds shall be allocated to the Term Loans
in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans and to the repayment, prepayment or repurchase of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant
to Section 2.13(a) (Asset Sales), 2.13(b) (Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds) or 2.13(c) (Certain Payments from Anchor Customers), as applicable, shall be reduced accordingly; provided further that to the extent the
holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness purchased, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance
with the terms hereof; 
 (ii) any additional amounts required to be paid Section 2.17(c) (Compensation for Breakage
or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods); 
 (iii) except for amounts to be paid to the Lender Counterparties pursuant to the
Permitted Hedging Agreements as set forth immediately below, any other Obligations due in connection with any prepayment under the Financing Documents; and 

(iv) if applicable, on a pro rata basis with the payments required under clause (b)(i), (ii) and (iii) above, to the Lender
Counterparties to the Permitted Hedging Agreements the Hedging Termination Values payable in respect of any Permitted Hedging Agreements to be terminated in connection with such prepayment in accordance with 2.14(c) (Termination of Permitted
Hedging Agreements in Connection with Any Prepayment), which terminated Permitted Hedging Agreements shall be specified by the Borrower in the notice of prepayment; provided, that any Hedging Termination Value that is not due at such time
in accordance with 2.14(c) (Termination of Permitted Hedging Agreements in Connection with Any Prepayment) shall be retained in the Revenue Account, as applicable, and applied at the time required as set forth in such Section. 

Payments of principal of the Loans will be applied in inverse order of maturity. 

(c) Termination of Permitted Hedging Agreements in Connection with Any Prepayment. If a voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Senior
Secured Debt made by the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Sections 2.12 (Voluntary Prepayments/Commitment Reductions), 2.13 (Mandatory Prepayments/Commitment Termination) or 2.14 (Application of Prepayments) would result
in the aggregate notional amount of the Permitted Hedging Agreements exceeding one hundred percent (100%) (calculated on a weighted average basis) of the projected aggregate outstanding balance of the Senior Secured Debt (other than DSR Loans
and Revolving Loans, and, for purposes of calculating such percentage, any such Senior Secured 

  
 74 







 
Debt which bears a fixed interest rate shall be deemed subject to a Permitted Hedging Agreement), the Borrower shall, terminate or, to the extent permitted by the applicable Permitted Hedging
Agreement, transfer or novate, a portion of the Permitted Hedging Agreements such that the aggregate notional amount of the Permitted Hedging Agreements satisfies the requirements of the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.11 (Interest Rate
Protection), but in any case is not more than (a) prior to forty-five (45) days following any such prepayment, one hundred ten percent (110%) (calculated on a weighted average basis) of the projected aggregate outstanding balance
of the Senior Secured Debt (other than the DSR Loans and Revolving Loans) and (b) thereafter, one hundred percent (100%) (calculated on a weighted average basis) of the projected aggregate outstanding balance of the Senior Secured Debt
(other than the DSR Loans and Revolving Loans); provided, however, for purposes of calculating such percentage, any such Senior Secured Debt which bears a fixed interest rate shall be deemed subject to a Permitted Hedging Agreement;
provided further, that any such reduction shall be made, (x) in the case of any voluntary prepayment of Loans under Section 2.12 (Voluntary Prepayments/Commitment Reductions), at the Borrower’s option, pro rata
against subsequent scheduled repayments or in inverse order of maturity of such Permitted Hedging Agreements and pro rata to all counterparties to such Permitted Hedging Agreements with the same maturity, or (y) in the case of any
mandatory prepayment of Secured Debt under 2.13 (Mandatory Prepayments/Commitment Termination), in inverse order of maturity of such Permitted Hedging Agreements and, in all cases under 2.13 (Mandatory Prepayments/Commitment
Termination), pro rata to all counterparties to such Permitted Hedging Agreements with the same maturity. The amount of any Hedging Termination Value due in respect of the Permitted Hedging Agreements terminated in accordance with this
Section 2.14(c) shall be made by the Borrower from amounts available with which to make such prepayment. 
 (d) Application of
Prepayments of Loans to Base Rate Loans and LIBO Rate Loans. Any prepayment of the Loans shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof, before application to LIBO Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the
amount of any payments required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods). 

2.15 General Provisions Regarding Payments. 

(a) All payments by any Credit Party of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in immediately available funds, without
reduction, defense, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and, except as otherwise required herein, delivered to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due at the Principal
Office of Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders. 
 (b) All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan (other than
voluntary prepayments of DSR Loans or Revolving Loans) shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments (and, in any event, any payments in respect of any Loan on a date when
interest is due and payable with respect to such Loan) shall be applied to the payment of interest then due and payable before application to principal. 

  
 75 







 (c) Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to
each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due
thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by Administrative Agent. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/ Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans, in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any LIBO Rate Loans, Administrative Agent shall give effect
thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter. 
 (e) Subject to the provisos set forth in the definition of “Interest
Period” as they may apply to DSR Loans or Revolving Loans, whenever any payment to be made hereunder with respect to any Loan shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding
Business Day and, with respect to such Loans only, such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder or of the Revolving Commitment or DSR Commitment fees hereunder. 

(f) Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of Borrower hereunder that is not made in immediately available funds
prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the
applicable next Business Day. Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to Borrower and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or
Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1(a) (Failure to Make Payments When Due). Interest and fees shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become
available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the rate determined pursuant to Section 2.09 (Default Interest) from the date such amount was due and
payable until the date such amount is paid in full. 
 (g) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and not otherwise been
waived, and the maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.1 (Events of Default) or pursuant to any sale of, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, all
payments or proceeds received by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in respect of any of the Obligations, shall be applied in accordance with the application arrangements described in Section 9.2 of the Pledge and Security Agreement.

 2.16 Ratable Sharing. Lenders hereby agree among themselves that, except as otherwise provided in the Security Documents with
respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with respect to Liens on the Collateral, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof),
through the exercise of any right of set off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Financing Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral
under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts 

  
 76 







 
payable in respect of Letters of Credit, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Financing Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate
Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall
(a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation
simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate
Amounts Due to them; provided, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, those purchases
shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees
that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, consolidation, set off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if
that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder. The provisions of this Section 2.16 shall not be construed to apply to (a) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this
Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (b) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Obligations
owed to it. 
 2.17 Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans. 

(a) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination
shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBO Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not
exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted LIBO Rate, Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower
and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, LIBO Rate Loans until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Borrower and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer
exist, and (ii) any Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by Borrower with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower. 

(b) Illegality or Impracticability of LIBO Rate Loans. In the event that on any date (i) any Lender shall have determined (which
determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that the making, maintaining, converting to or continuation of its LIBO Rate Loans has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lenders in good faith with any
treaty, Government Rule or guideline (or would conflict with any such treaty, Government Rule or guideline not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) Administrative Agent is advised
by the Requisite Lenders (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) 

  
 77 







 
that the making, maintaining, converting to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans has become impracticable or unavailable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date hereof which
materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of the Lenders in that market, then, and in any such event, any Lender requesting compensation under this Section 2.17 shall be an “Affected
Lender” and such Affected Lender shall on that day give notice (by e-mail or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to
each other Lender). If Administrative Agent receives a notice from (x) any Lender pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence or (y) a notice from Lenders constituting Requisite Lenders pursuant to clause (ii) of the
preceding sentence, then (1) the obligation of the Lenders (or, in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Lender) to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended until
such notice shall be withdrawn by each Affected Lender, (2) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a LIBO Rate Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice,
the Lenders (or in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Lender) shall make such Loan as (or continue such Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (3) the Lenders’
(or in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Lender’s) obligations to maintain their respective outstanding LIBO Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated
at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such
termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a LIBO Rate Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice,
Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.17(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods), to rescind such Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice as to all Lenders by
giving written or telephonic notice (promptly confirmed by delivery of written notice thereof) to Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of
rescission Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender).  
 (c) Compensation for Breakage or
Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. Borrower shall compensate each Lender, within 30 days of written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and
liabilities (including any interest paid or payable by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBO Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or
re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any LIBO Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a
Funding Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBO Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation;
(ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its LIBO Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan; or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBO Rate
Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Borrower. With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under this Section 2.17, Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount
incurred more than 180 calendar days prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim. 

  
 78 







 (d) Booking of LIBO Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBO Rate Loans at,
to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender. 
 (e) Assumptions Concerning Funding
of LIBO Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.17 and under Section 2.18 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant
LIBO Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted LIBO Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBO Rate Loan and having a maturity
comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender
may fund each of its LIBO Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.17 and under Section 2.18 (Increased Costs; Capital
Adequacy). 
 2.18 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. 

(a) Compensation For Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) (which
shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender (which term shall include each Agent and Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.18(a)) shall determine (which determination shall, absent
manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (A) any treaty, Government Rule or guideline, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (regardless of whether the
underlying treaty, Government Rule or guideline was issued or enacted prior to the date hereof), including the introduction of any new treaty, Government Rule or guideline but excluding solely proposals thereof, or any determination of a court or
governmental authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or (B) any guideline, request or directive by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) or
any implementation rules or interpretations of previously issued guidelines, requests or directives, in each case that is issued or made after the date hereof (in each case, a “Change in Law”): (i) subjects such Lender (or its
applicable lending office or Affiliate) or any company controlling such Lender to any additional Tax (other than any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) and Excluded Taxes) with respect to
this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder;
(ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or
deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to LIBO
Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any 

  
 79 







 
company controlling such Lender; or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any company
controlling such Lender or such Lender’s obligations hereunder or the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost or decrease the yield to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans
hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) hereunder; then, in any such case, Borrower shall pay to such Lender, within 30 days following receipt of the statement referred to in the
next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or in a lump sum or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to
compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in yield or amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail
the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.18(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error. 

(b) Capital Adequacy Adjustment. In the event that any Lender (which term shall include each Issuing Bank for purposes of this
Section 2.18(b)) shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (A) the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, phase in or applicability of any
law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation
or administration thereof, or (B) compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any company controlling such Lender with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the
force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, in each case after the date hereof, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any company controlling such Lender
as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans, Revolving Commitments, DSR Commitments or Letters of Credit or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans or Letters of Credit to a level below
that which such Lender or such controlling company could have achieved but for such introduction, adoption, effectiveness, phase in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling
company with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling company on an after tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the
basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.18(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error. For the avoidance of doubt, for all purposes of the Financing
Documents, subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.18 shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning liquidity and capital adequacy issued or promulgated by any United States or foreign regulatory authority
(i) under or in connection with the implementation of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and (ii) in connection with the implementation of the recommendations of the Bank for International Settlements, the United
States regulatory authorities or the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority), regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented. 

  
 80 







 (c) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to
this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any
increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such
Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to
include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 
 2.19 Taxes; Withholding, Etc. 

(a) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by or on behalf of any Credit Party hereunder and under the other Financing
Documents shall be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax, except to the extent required by law. 

(b) Withholding of Taxes. If any Withholding Agent (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including a Lender acting as a withholding
agent with respect to payments made to its members, partners or beneficiaries) is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Tax from any sum paid or payable by any Credit Party to Administrative Agent or any Lender under
any of the Financing Documents: (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding; (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay, or cause to be paid, any such Tax to the appropriate
Governmental Authority before the date on which penalties attach thereto; (iii) if the tax is an Indemnified Tax and unless otherwise provided in this Section 2.19, the sum payable by such Credit Party in respect of which the relevant
deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of the deduction, withholding or payment for Indemnified Taxes (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 2.19(b)), each relevant Recipient receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment for Indemnified Taxes been required or made; and
(iv) within thirty days after the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required by clause (ii) above to pay, the applicable Credit Party shall (if any Credit Party is responsible for the deduction, withholding or payment) deliver to
Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant Governmental Authority. 

(c) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Financing
Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably


  
 81 







 
requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine
whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than
such documentation set forth in Section 2.19(c)(ii)(A), (c)(ii)(B) and (c)(ii)(D) and 2.19(g) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any
material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii) Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, 
 (A) any Lender and Agent that is a “United States Person” as defined in
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable
request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

(B) any Lender that is not a “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall, to
the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(1) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with
respect to payments of interest under any Financing Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article
of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Financing Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the
“business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 
 (2) executed copies of IRS Form
W-8ECI; 
 (3) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under
Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of
the Borrower within the 

  
 82 







 
meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a
“U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or 

(4) to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI,
IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect
partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

(C) any Lender that is not a “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall, to
the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal
withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D) BTMU, as the Administrative Agent, and any successor or supplemental Administrative Agent that is not a “United States person”
within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall deliver to the Borrower, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement, two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, with the effect that the Borrower may
make payments to the Administrative Agent, to the extent such payments are received by the Administrative Agent as an intermediary, without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States. 

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered (under this Section 2.19(c) or under Section 2.19(g))
expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(d) Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.19(b) (Withholding of Taxes), Borrower shall timely pay all Other Taxes to
the relevant Governmental Authorities in accordance with applicable law. Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent official receipts or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent in respect of any Other Taxes
payable hereunder promptly after payment of such Other Taxes. 
 (e) Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and any Lender for
the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (taking into account all exceptions provided in this Section 

  
 83 







 
2.19) arising in connection with payments made under this Agreement or any other Financing Document (including any such Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable
under this Section 2.19) payable or paid by Administrative Agent or Lender required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Administrative Agent or Lender and for any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether
or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Credit Party shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Such payment shall be due within ten (10) days of such Credit Party’s receipt of such certificate. 
 (f) If any party determines,
in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund, from the Governmental Authority imposing the Tax, of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.19 (including by the payment of
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, under this Section 2.19 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to
such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the
request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such
indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant
to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Taxes resulting in such indemnification payments or additional amounts
and giving rise to such refund had never been imposed and such indemnification payments or additional amounts have never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any
other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (g) If a payment made
to a Lender under any Financing Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b)
or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such
documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for
Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely
for purposes of this Section 2.19(g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(h) For purposes of this Section 2.19, the term “Lender” shall include any Issuing Bank. 

  
 84 







 (i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.19 shall survive the
resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Financing Document.

 2.20 Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender (which term shall include each Issuing Bank for purposes of this
Section 2.20) agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender that is directly or indirectly responsible for administering its Loans or Letters of Credit, as the case may be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event
or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.17 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans), 2.18 (Increased Costs; Capital
Adequacy) or 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.), it will (at the request of the Borrower), to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts
to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances
which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans), 2.18
(Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) would be eliminated or materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Revolving
Commitments, DSR Commitments, Loans or Letters of Credit through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Revolving Commitments, DSR Commitments, Loans or Letters of
Credit or the interests of such Lender; provided, such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.20 unless Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of
utilizing such other office as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such
Lender to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  
 2.21 Defaulting Lenders.

 (a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes
a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 

(i) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the
account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 (Events of Default) or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.4 (Set
Off) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on
a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank hereunder; third, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), to the funding


  
 85 







 
of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fourth, if so determined
by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a Deposit Account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fifth, to the
payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or any Issuing Bank as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or such Issuing Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s
breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of
competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations with respect to Unreimbursed Amounts refinanced by a Revolving Loan in respect of which such
Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3 (Conditions Precedent) were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to
pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit are held by the
Lenders pro rata in accordance with the applicable Commitments. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral
pursuant to this Section 2.21(a)(i) (Defaulting Lender Waterfall) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(ii) Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to Section 2.10(a) (Fees) for any
period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer
a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash
Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders of the applicable Commitment or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause
the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the applicable Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.21(a)(iii) (Reallocation of Participations to Reduce
Fronting Exposure)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a
Defaulting Lender; and provided further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party
hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. 

  
 86 







 (c) [Reserved]. 

(d) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of Administrative Agent and any Issuing Bank, as applicable, (1) if such Issuing Bank has
honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an Unreimbursed Amount, or (2) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding,
Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize 103% of the amount of then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Depositary Agreement. 

(i) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral provided by Borrower (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to
deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at an institution selected by Administrative Agent (which, unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank, shall be the applicable L/C Cash Collateral Account).
Borrower hereby grants to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral. If at any time Administrative Agent determines
that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the
Borrower will, promptly upon demand by Administrative Agent, pay or provide to Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency. 

(ii) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Credit Party shall not be released during the
existence of a Default or Event of Default. 
 2.22 Removal or Replacement of a Lender. Anything contained herein to
the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased Cost Lender”) shall give notice to Borrower that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive
payments under Section 2.17 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans), 2.18 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.), and (ii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five
Business Days after Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) (i) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender and continues to be a Defaulting Lender, and (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall fail to cure the default pursuant
to Section 2.21(b) (Defaulting Lender Cure) within five Business Days after Borrower’s request that it cure such default; or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with
respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.5(b) (Affected Lenders’ Consent), the consent of Super-Majority Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each a
“Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Increased Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated
Lender”), Borrower may, by giving written notice to Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its
outstanding Loans and its Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 (Successors and Assigns;
Participations) and Borrower shall pay 

  
 87 







 
the fees, if any, payable thereunder in connection with any such assignment from an Increased Cost Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender or a Defaulting Lender; provided, (1) on
the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, (B) an
amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings that have been funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to
such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.12 (Fees) (but, in the case of any Defaulting Lender, subject to Section 2.21(a)(ii) (Certain Fees)); (2) on the date of such assignment, Borrower shall pay any amounts
payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.17(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods), 2.18 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) or otherwise, as
if it were a prepayment (without regard to any pro rata payment obligation in respect of any other Loans); (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such
assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender; and (4) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for payment under Section 2.18 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy)
or 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.), or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.), such assignment will result in a reduction of such payments; provided, Borrower may not make such
election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also an Issuing Bank, unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, Borrower shall have caused the outstanding Letters of Credit issued thereby to be cancelled. Upon the prepayment of all
amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such
Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. Each Lender agrees that if Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by such Lender as a Terminated Lender, such Lender shall, promptly
after receipt of written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 10.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations). In the event that a Lender does not
comply with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence within one Business Day after receipt of such notice, each Lender hereby authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to
give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 10.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations) on behalf of a Terminated Lender and any such documentation so executed by Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of
documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 10.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations).  
 2.23 Replacement
Debt. Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.23, the Borrower may incur or issue Replacement Debt, the proceeds of which shall be used to refinance the Term Loans, Revolving Loans or DSR Loans or replace commitments to provide the Term
Loans, Revolving Loans, DSR Loans and/or Letters of Credit subject to the terms of this Agreement. The Borrower may incur Replacement Debt at its sole discretion, only if, prior to or on the date of incurrence thereof, the following conditions are
satisfied or waived by the Requisite Lenders: 
 (a) no Default or Event of Default: 

(i) shall have occurred and be continuing; or 

  
 88 







 (ii) results from the incurrence or issuance of such Replacement Debt; 

(b) the maximum principal amount of the proposed Replacement Debt does not exceed the sum of: 

(i) the Commitments being cancelled concurrently with the incurrence or issuance of such Replacement Debt; plus 

(ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans being prepaid concurrently with the incurrence or issuance of such Replacement
Debt; plus 
 (iii) all accrued interest on the Loans being repaid, all premiums, discounts, fees, costs and expenses (including,
without duplication, (A) Hedging Termination Values with respect to any Permitted Hedging Agreements subject to the refinancing with the proposed Replacement Debt, (B) any amounts deposited in a debt service reserve or similar reserve (or
any interest during construction) account in connection with the issuance of such Replacement Debt and (C) any incremental carrying costs of such Replacement Debt) associated with any such cancellation or prepayment, or incurred in connection
with the proposed Replacement Debt; 
 (c) the weighted average life to maturity of the Replacement Debt shall not be less than the weighted
average life to maturity of the Loans prior to the incurrence of such Replacement Debt; 
 (d) the maturity date of the Replacement Debt
shall not occur prior to the Final Maturity Date; 
 (e) the material terms of the Replacement Debt shall not be materially more restrictive
on the Borrower than the terms of this Agreement; 
 (f) the Borrower shall have demonstrated by delivery of an updated Base Case Forecast
that after the incurrence of such Replacement Debt, the Projected Debt Service Coverage Ratio commencing on the Initial Quarterly Principal Payment Date and for each calendar year through the assumed 18-year amortization schedule for the Term Loans
shall not be less than 1.55x; 
 (g) the Agent for the Replacement Debt shall have acceded to the Intercreditor Agreement and Collateral

 SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 In order to induce Agents, Lenders and Issuing Banks to enter into this Agreement and to make
each Credit Extension to be made thereby, each Credit Party represents and warrants to each Agent, Lender and Issuing Bank on each of the Closing Date, each Funding Date and each Credit Date, that the following statements are true and correct: 

4.1 Organization; Requisite Power and Authority; Qualification. Each Credit Party (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization as identified in Schedule 4.1, (b) has all requisite power and authority to own and operate its properties, to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be
conducted, to enter into the Financing Documents to which it is a party and to carry out the transactions contemplated thereby, and (c) is qualified to do business and in good standing in every jurisdiction where its assets are located and
wherever necessary to carry out its business and operations, except in jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing has not had, and could not be reasonably expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect. 

4.2 Equity Interests and Ownership. The Equity Interests of each Credit Party have been duly authorized and validly issued. As of the
Closing Date and each Funding Date, except with respect to the Borrower and as set forth on Schedule 4.2, there is no existing option, warrant, call, right, commitment or other agreement to which any Credit Party is a party requiring, and

Credit Party or other Securities convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the right to subscribe for or purchase, a membership interest or other Equity Interests of any Credit Party. Schedule 4.2 correctly sets forth the ownership
interest of Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries in their respective Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date and as of each Funding Date both before and after giving effect to the Transactions. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.2, the Credit
Parties do not own any Equity Interests in any Person other than the Equity Interests in Borrower and Subsidiaries of Borrower.

4.4 No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party and, to each Credit Party’s Knowledge, each Material
Project Party, of each of the Transaction Documents to which they are parties and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents do not and will not (a) violate (i) any material provision of any law or any
Government Rule or any Government Approval applicable to the Credit Parties, (ii) any of the Organizational Documents of the Credit Parties, or (iii) any order, judgment or decree of any court or other agency of government binding on the
Credit Parties; (b) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any Contractual Obligation of the Credit Parties except to the extent such conflict, breach or default could not

Lien); or (d) require any approval of stockholders, members or partners or any approval or consent of any Person under any 

  
 106 







 
Contractual Obligation of the Credit Parties, except for such approvals or consents (i) that have been obtained or are reasonably expected to be received at the time required and all such
consents and approvals that have been obtained remain in full force and effect or (ii) the failure of which to obtain could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

4.5 Governmental Consents. Assuming receipt of any FERC or DOE approvals required in connection with the Secured Parties’ exercise
of remedies under the Financing Documents, the execution, delivery and performance by Credit Parties of the Financing Documents to which they are parties and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents do not and
will not require any registration with, consent or approval of, or notice to, or other action to, with or by, any Governmental Authority, except for filings and recordings with respect to the Collateral to be made, or otherwise delivered to
Collateral Agent for filing and/or recordation, as of the Closing Date and each Funding Date, as applicable.

Obligation. Each Financing Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Credit Party that is a party thereto and each Financing Document and, to the Knowledge of each Credit Party that is a party thereto, each of the Material Contracts,
is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating
to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

any such unaudited financial statements, to changes resulting from audit and normal year-end adjustments. As of the Closing Date and each Funding Date, none of the Credit Parties has any contingent liability or liability for Taxes, long term lease
or unusual forward or long term commitment that is not reflected in the financial statements or the notes thereto and which in any such case is material in relation to the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise)

 SECTION 7. GUARANTY

 7.1 Guaranty of the Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2 (Contribution by
Guarantors), the Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations, when the
same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or any equivalent provision in any applicable jurisdiction) (each, a “Guaranteed Obligation” and, collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

 7.2 Contribution by Guarantors. All Subsidiary Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the
“Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Subsidiary Guarantor (a “Funding
Guarantor”) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to
cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio
of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid
or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the obligations Guaranteed. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of
determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under
Section 548 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided, solely for purposes of calculating the “Fair Share Contribution Amount” with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for
purposes of this Section 7.2, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be
considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all
payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including in respect of this Section 7.2), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by
such  

  
 144 







 
Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.2. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on
which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.2 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability
of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.2. 

7.3 Payment by Guarantors. Subject to Section 7.2 (Contribution by Guarantors), the Subsidiary Guarantors
hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Borrower to
pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the
automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or any equivalent provision in any applicable jurisdiction), the Subsidiary Guarantors will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to Administrative
Agent for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but
for Borrower becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code or other similar legislation in any jurisdiction, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Borrower for such interest in the
related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid. 
 7.4 Liability of
Guarantors Absolute. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a
guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees as follows: 

(a) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectability. This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Subsidiary
Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety; 
 (b) Administrative Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Borrower and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event of Default; 

(c) the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrower and the obligations of any other
guarantor (including any other Subsidiary Guarantor) of the obligations of Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Subsidiary Guarantor, whether or not any action is brought against Borrower or any of
such other guarantors and whether or not Borrower is joined in any such action or actions; 

  
 145 







 (d) payment by any Subsidiary Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations
shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Administrative Agent is awarded a
judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Subsidiary Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Subsidiary Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the
Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Subsidiary Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder in
respect of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (e) any Beneficiary, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without
affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate,
increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or
substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take
and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of
the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Subsidiary Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) subject to the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Financing Documents, enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise
any other right or remedy that such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case as such Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith or the applicable Permitted Hedging Agreement and any applicable security
agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any
right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Subsidiary Guarantor against any other Credit Party or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Financing
Documents; and 
 (f) this Guaranty and the obligations of Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be
subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Subsidiary Guarantor shall
have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or
enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Financing Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any
other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed 

  
 146 







 
Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default)
hereof, any of the other Financing Documents or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such
Financing Document or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the
application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Financing Documents or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as
collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed
Obligations; (v) any Beneficiary’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Borrower, or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations;
(vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set offs or counterclaims which Borrower may allege or assert against any
Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission,
or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Subsidiary Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. 

7.5 Waivers by Guarantors. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require any
Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Subsidiary Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Borrower, any other guarantor (including any other Subsidiary Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person,
(ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrower, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of
any Credit Party or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Borrower or any
other Subsidiary Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of
Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in
amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith;
(e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the
benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement
that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction,
including acceptance hereof, 

  
 147 







 
notices of default hereunder, the Permitted Hedging Agreements or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations
or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Borrower and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.4 (Liability of Guarantors Absolute) and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any
defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof. 

7.6 Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, Etc. Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been
indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives, any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Subsidiary
Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Subsidiary Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such
claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Subsidiary Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against
Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to
participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall
have expired or been cancelled, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Subsidiary Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Subsidiary Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations,
including any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 7.2 (Contribution by Guarantors). Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of
subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Subsidiary
Guarantor may have against Borrower or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Subsidiary Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have
against Borrower, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on
account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been finally and indefeasibly paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent
on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.

 7.7 Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor now or hereafter held by any
Subsidiary Guarantor (an “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of  

  
 148 







 
Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting,
impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof. 
 7.8 Continuing
Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been
cancelled. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations. 

7.9 Authority of Guarantors or Borrower. It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any
Subsidiary Guarantor or Borrower or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them. 
 7.10
Financial Condition of Borrower. Any Credit Extension may be made to Borrower or continued from time to time, and any Permitted Hedging Agreements may be entered into from time to time, in each case without notice to or authorization from any
Subsidiary Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation or at the time such Permitted Hedging Agreement is entered into, as the case may be. No Beneficiary shall have any
obligation to disclose or discuss with any Subsidiary Guarantor its assessment, or any Subsidiary Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of Borrower. Each Subsidiary Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Borrower
on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Borrower and its ability to perform its obligations under the Financing Documents, and each Subsidiary Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial
condition of Borrower and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing
relating to the business, operations or conditions of Borrower now known or hereafter known by any Beneficiary. 
 7.11 Bankruptcy, Etc.

 (a) So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Subsidiary Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of
Administrative Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of Requisite Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against Borrower or any other Subsidiary
Guarantor. The obligations of Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or by any defense which Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or
administrative body resulting from any such proceeding. 
 (b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any
portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed 

  
 149 







 
Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if
such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Subsidiary Guarantors and Beneficiaries that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Subsidiary Guarantors
pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve Borrower of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations. Subsidiary Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession,
assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person to pay Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of Administrative Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced. 

(c) In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by Borrower, the obligations of Subsidiary Guarantors
hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Beneficiary as a preference,
fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder. 

7.12 Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor. If all of the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary Guarantor or any of its successors
in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof to any party other than a Credit Party, then the Guaranty of such Subsidiary Guarantor or such
successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Beneficiary or any other Person effective as of the time of such Asset Sale. 

7.13 Keepwell. 

(a) Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or
other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable
under this Section 7.13 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 7.13, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent
conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 7.13 shall remain in full force and effect until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full and the
Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or have been cancelled or Cash Collateralized with at least 103% coverage. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 7.13 constitute, and this
Section 7.13 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

(B) each of the following shall immediately become due and payable, in each case without presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Credit Party: (I) the unpaid
principal amount of and accrued interest and premium, if any, on the Loans, (II) an amount equal to the maximum amount that may at any time be drawn under all Letters of Credit then outstanding (regardless of whether any beneficiary under any such

any Permitted Hedging Agreements, except to the extent elected to be accelerated by any Lender Counterparty); provided, the foregoing shall not affect in any way the obligations of Lenders under Section 2.3(c)(i) (Drawings and
Reimbursements); (C) Administrative Agent may cause Collateral Agent to enforce any and all Liens and security interests created pursuant to Security Documents; and (D) Administrative Agent shall direct Borrower to pay (and Borrower
hereby agrees upon receipt of such notice, or upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in Sections 8.1(f) (Involuntary Bankruptcy; Appointment of Receiver, Etc.) and 8.1(g) (Voluntary Bankruptcy; Appointment of Receiver,
Etc.) to pay) to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to 103% of the amount of the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations thereof). 

8.2 Right to Cure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.1, for purposes of calculating the Debt Service
Coverage Ratio and of determining whether an Event of Default has occurred under Section 6.6 (Financial Covenant), in the event that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as of the end of any Fiscal Quarter following the Initial Quarterly
Principal Payment Date is less than 1.15 to 1.00 but greater than 1.00 to 1.00, any direct or indirect owner of the Borrower shall have the right to provide cash to the Borrower, not later than ten (10) Business Days following the date of
delivery of the calculation of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as required pursuant to Section 6.6 (Financial Covenant) in the form of equity contributions or subordinated shareholder loans (in each case as otherwise permitted pursuant
to the terms of the Financing Documents), such amounts to be considered Cash Flow Available for Debt Service in order to increase the Debt Service Coverage Ratio to 1.15 to 1.00; provided, that such right shall not be exercised more than two
(2) consecutive Fiscal Quarters nor more than four (4) times over the term of this Agreement.

 SECTION 9. AGENT 

9.1 Appointment of Agent. The Joint Lead Arrangers are hereby appointed Joint Bookrunners hereunder, and each Lender hereby authorizes
the Joint Lead Arrangers to act as Joint Bookrunners in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Financing Documents. BTMU is hereby appointed Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Documents and each Lender and Issuing
Bank hereby authorizes BTMU to act as Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Financing Documents. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees to act in its capacity as such upon the express conditions contained herein and
the other Financing Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of the Agents and Lenders and no Credit Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof. In
performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of the Arrangers, in their capacity as such, shall have any duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Agreement or any other Financing Document nor any fiduciary
relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Arrangers, in such capacity, but each Arranger, in such
capacity, shall be entitled to all benefits of this Section 9. Each of the Arrangers, and any Agent described in clause (h) of the definition thereof appointed to serve in a similar capacity may resign from such role at any time, with
immediate effect, by giving prior written notice thereof to Administrative Agent and Borrower. 
 9.2 Powers and Duties. Each Lender
irrevocably authorizes each Agent (i) to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Financing Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by
the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto and (ii) to enter into any and all of the Security Documents together with such other documents as shall be necessary to give
effect to the Collateral contemplated by the Security Documents, on its behalf. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender agrees to be bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement to the same extent as if it were a party thereto. Each Agent shall
have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Financing Documents. Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. No Agent shall
have, by reason hereof or any of the other Financing Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or any other Person; and nothing herein or any of the other Financing Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so
construed as to impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Financing Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. 

9.3 General Immunity. 

  
 156 







 (a) No Responsibility for Certain Matters. No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for
the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or any other Financing Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or
oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by any Agent to Lenders or by or on behalf of any Credit Party to any Agent or any Lender in connection with the
Financing Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Credit Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall any Agent be required to ascertain or
inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Financing Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence
of any Event of Default or Default or to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of
outstanding Loans or L/C Obligations or the component amounts thereof. 
 (b) Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent nor any of its
officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any action taken or omitted by any Agent under or in connection with any of the Financing Documents except to the extent caused by such Agent’s gross negligence
or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection
herewith or any of the other Financing Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Requisite Lenders
(or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.5 (Amendments and Waivers)) or, in the case of Collateral Agent, in accordance with the applicable Security Documents or Intercreditor Agreement, and
upon receipt of such instructions from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be) or, in the case of Collateral Agent, in accordance with the applicable Security Documents or Intercreditor Agreement, such Agent shall be entitled
to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions, including for the avoidance of doubt refraining from any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its
counsel, may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law. Without prejudice to the generality
of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or
Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for Borrower and its Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and
(ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Financing Documents in accordance with the instructions of
Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.5 (Amendments and Waivers)). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in
its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Financing Document or applicable law; and no Agent shall, except as expressly 

  
 157 







 
set forth herein and in the other Financing Documents, have any duty to disclose, and no Agent shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or any of
its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Each Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given
to such Agent by a Credit Party or a Lender. 
 (c) Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties
and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Financing Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its
duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of this Section 9.3 and of Section 9.6 (Right to Indemnify) shall apply to any Affiliates of
Administrative Agent and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

9.4 Agents Entitled to Act as Lender. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or
impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its participation in the Loans and the Letters of Credit, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other
Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity.
Any Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with any of Borrower’s Affiliates as if it were not performing the
duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders. 

9.5 Lenders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment. 

(a) Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Borrower
and its Subsidiary Guarantors in connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower and its Subsidiary Guarantors. No Agent shall have any duty or
responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its
possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders. 

(b) Each Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement, an Assignment Agreement and funding its
Term Loan or Revolving Loan or issuing a Letter of Credit on a Funding Date, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Financing Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent,
Requisite Lenders, Issuing Banks or Lenders, as applicable on such Funding Date or the Closing Date. 

  
 158 







 (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Lender acknowledges that the lien and
security interest granted to Collateral Agent, pursuant to the U.S. Pledge and Security Agreement or other applicable Security Document and the exercise of any right or remedy by Collateral Agent thereunder are subject to the provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement and that in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and such other Security Document, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. 

9.6 Right to Indemnity. Each Lender or Issuing Bank, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent, to
the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by any Credit Party, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Financing Documents or Letters of
Credit or otherwise in its capacity as such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents or Letters of Credit; provided, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified
against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or
disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action,
judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence. 
 9.7 Successor
Administrative Agent. 
 (a) Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and
under the other Financing Documents at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior notice to the Borrower and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent may be removed at any time (i) by the Requisite Lenders for such Person’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct or (ii) by the Borrower, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, for such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event BTMU is no longer the Administrative Agent, any successor
Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with cause by the Requisite Lenders. Any such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent, in accordance with this Section 9.7. 

(b) Upon any notice of resignation by the Administrative Agent or upon the removal of the Administrative Agent by the Requisite Lenders, or by
the Borrower with the 

  
 159 







 
approval of the Requisite Lenders pursuant to Section 9.7(a), the Requisite Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent, hereunder and under each other Financing Document to which
the Administrative Agent is a party, such successor Administrative Agent to be a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus of at least one billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000); provided that, if no Default or Event of Default shall
then be continuing, appointment of a successor Administrative Agent shall also be acceptable to the Borrower (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative
Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. 
 (c) If no
successor Administrative Agent has been appointed by the Requisite Lenders within thirty (30) days after the date such notice of resignation was given by such resigning Administrative Agent, or the Requisite Lenders elected to remove such
Person, any Secured Party may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, appoint a successor Administrative Agent,
who shall serve as Administrative Agent hereunder and under each other Financing Document to which it is a party until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent, as provided above. 

(d) Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested
with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent, and the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other
Financing Documents. After the retirement or removal of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 (Agents) and Section 10.3 (Indemnity) shall continue in
effect for the benefit of such retiring (or removed) Person, its sub-agents and their respective Agent Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Person was acting in its capacity as
Administrative Agent. 
 9.8 Security Documents and Guaranty. 

(a) Agents under Security Documents and Guaranty. Each Credit Agreement Secured Party hereby further authorizes Administrative Agent to
(or to authorize the Collateral Agent to, as applicable), on behalf of and for the benefit of Credit Agreement Secured Parties, (i) be the agent for and representative of the Credit Agreement Secured Parties with respect to the Guaranty, the
Collateral and the Security Documents and (ii) enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and acknowledge its consent, as may be necessary under each applicable jurisdiction, to the granting of the first priority Lien (subject to permitted Liens)
pursuant to each of the Security Documents; provided that neither Administrative Agent nor Collateral Agent shall owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of
Obligations with respect to any Permitted Hedging Agreements. Subject to Section 10.5 (Amendments and Waivers), without further written consent or authorization from any Secured Party, Administrative Agent may (or may authorize the
Collateral Agent to, as applicable) execute any documents or instruments necessary to (i) in connection with a sale or disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement, release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of
such sale or other disposition of assets 

  
 160 







 
or to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.5 (Amendments and Waivers)) have otherwise consented or
(ii) release any Subsidiary Guarantor from the Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.12 (Discharge of Guaranty upon Sale of Guarantor) or with respect to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such
consent under Section 10.5 (Amendments and Waivers)) have otherwise consented. 
 (b) Right to Realize on Collateral
and Enforce Guaranty. Anything contained in any of the Financing Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Credit Agreement Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Credit Agreement Secured Party shall
have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Financing Documents may be exercised solely by
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by Collateral
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other
disposition (including pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), Collateral Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k),
Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code,) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties
(but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from the Administrative Agent at the instruction of the Requisite Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or
payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by Collateral Agent at such
sale or other disposition. 
 (c) Rights under Permitted Hedging Agreements. No Permitted Hedging Agreements will create (or be
deemed to create) in favor of any Lender Counterparty that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Financing Documents except as
expressly provided in Section 10.5(c)(iv) (Other Consents) of this Agreement and Section 9.2 of the Pledge and Security Agreement. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, such Lender Counterparty shall be deemed to have
appointed Collateral Agent as its agent and agreed to be bound by the Financing Documents as a Secured Party, subject to the limitations set forth in this clause (c). 

(d) Release of Collateral and Guarantees, Termination of Financing Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein
or any other Financing Document, upon the occurrence of the Discharge of Obligations, upon request of Borrower, Administrative Agent shall, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, take such actions as shall be required to release its security
interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations provided for in any Financing Document. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if
after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, 

  
 161 







 
dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar
officer for, Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 

(e) Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the
existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party or the General Partner acting on behalf of Borrower in connection
therewith, nor shall Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 

9.9 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender
an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the
appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other
reason, or if Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify Administrative Agent fully for all
amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred. A
certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any
time owing to such Lender under any Financing Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this Section 9.9. 

9.10 Administrative Agent May File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Laws relative to any Credit Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Obligation under a Letter of Credit shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a) to file a verified statement pursuant to rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure that, in its sole opinion, complies with
such rule’s disclosure requirements for entities representing more than one creditor; 
 (b) to file and prove a claim for the whole
amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, Issuing
Banks and Administrative Agent, including any claim for the reasonable 

  
 162 







 
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.3 (Letters
of Credit), 2.10 (Fees), 10.2 (Expenses) and 10.3 (Indemnity) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

(c) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized
by each Lender and each Issuing Bank to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and Issuing Banks to pay to Administrative Agent any
amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.3 (Letters of Credit), 2.10 (Fees),
10.2 (Expenses) and 10.3 (Indemnity). To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under
Sections 2.3 (Letters of Credit), 2.10 (Fees), 10.2 (Expenses) and 10.3 (Indemnity) hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and
shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Lenders or Issuing Banks may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or
arrangement or otherwise.  
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or
adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such
proceeding. 
 SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS. 

10.1 Notices.

(i) Notices and other communications to any Agent, Lenders and each Issuing Bank hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic
communication (including email and Internet or intranet websites, including the Platform) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to (x) notices to any Agent, any Lender or any
Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2 (Loans and Letters of Credit) if such Person has notified Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Section by electronic communication or (y) the issuance of any
Letter of Credit. Administrative Agent or Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such
procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an
acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during
the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or

 (ii) Each Credit Party understands that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is
not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution and agrees and assumes the risks associated with such electronic distribution, except to the extent caused by the willful misconduct or gross
negligence of Administrative Agent, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (iii)
The Platform and any Approved Electronic Communications are provided “as is” and “as available”. None of the Agents or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or representatives (the
“Agent Affiliates”) warrant the accuracy, adequacy, or completeness of the Approved Electronic Communications or the Platform and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Platform and the Approved Electronic
Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects is made by the
Agent Affiliates in connection with the Platform or the Approved Electronic Communications.

 164 







 (ii) Any notice of Default or Event of Default may be provided by telephone if confirmed
promptly thereafter by delivery of written notice thereof. 
 (c) Private Side Information Contacts. Each Public Lender agrees to
cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender
or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States federal and state securities laws, to make reference to information that is not made available through the “Public
Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain Non-Public Information with respect to Borrower, its Affiliates or their respective Securities for purposes of United States federal or state securities laws. In the event that any
Public Lender has determined for itself to not access any information disclosed through the Platform or otherwise, such Public Lender acknowledges that (i) other Lenders may have availed themselves of such information and (ii) neither any
Credit Party nor Administrative Agent has any responsibility for such Public Lender’s decision to limit the scope of the information it has obtained in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing Documents. 

10.2 Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower agrees to pay promptly (a) all
the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower and the other Credit Parties required to be delivered by this Agreement; (b) the actual, reasonable and documented fees and expenses of advisors to the Agents (including legal fees,
expenses and disbursements of Chadbourne & Parke LLP, one local counsel to Agents in each jurisdiction in which security over property of Borrower and its Subsidiary Guarantors has or will be granted in connection with the Transactions;
provided that in the event of an actual or potential conflict of interest, the affected Agents shall be entitled to reimbursement of the actual, reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of one additional counsel) in
connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and administration of the Financing Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower; (c) all the
actual, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses of creating, perfecting, recording, maintaining and preserving Liens in favor of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, including filing and recording fees,
expenses and taxes, stamp or documentary taxes, search fees or title insurance premiums; (d) all the actual, reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any auditors, accountants, consultants or

and agents employed or retained by Collateral Agent and its counsel) in connection with the custody or preservation of any of the Collateral; (f) all other actual, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by each
Agent in connection with the syndication of the Loans and Commitments and the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto; and (g) after the occurrence and during the


  
 165 







 
continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, all actual, documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of one
counsel and, to the extent applicable, any other local counsel reasonably necessary, incurred by any Agent, any Issuing Bank and Lenders in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from Borrower or any of its Subsidiary
Guarantors hereunder or under the other Financing Documents by reason of such Default or Event of Default (including in connection with the sale, lease or license of, collection from, or other realization upon any of the Collateral or the
enforcement of the Guaranty) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings. This
Section 10.2 shall not apply with respect to Taxes that are imposed with respect to payments to or for the account of any Agent or any Lender under any Financing Document which are covered by Section 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.)
or that are specifically excluded from the scope of Section 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.). 
 10.3
Indemnity. 
 (a) In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 10.2, whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, each Credit Party agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless, each Agent, each Issuing Bank and Lender and each of their and their
Affiliates’ respective officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors, employees, attorneys, agents, sub-agents, affiliates and controlling Persons (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified
Liabilities; provided, no Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct, or
material breach (other than by an Agent) of its express obligations hereunder of such Indemnitee as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay
and hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Credit Party shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and
satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnitee, or insufficient to hold it
harmless, then Borrower will contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee, as applicable, as a result of such Indemnified Liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of (i) the Credit
Parties and their respective Affiliates, shareholders, partners, members or other equity holders on the one hand and (ii) such Indemnitee on the other hand with respect to the Transactions, as well as the relative fault of (x) the Credit
Parties and their respective Affiliates, shareholders, partners, members or other equity holders and (y) such Indemnitee with respect to such Indemnified Liability. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Credit Parties
under this Section 10.3 will be in addition to any liability which the Credit Parties may otherwise have, and will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Credit Parties,
the Indemnitees, any such Affiliate and any such Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Credit Party shall be required to indemnify any indemnified party for losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising solely out of disputes as between the
indemnified parties that are not based on any act or omission of the Credit Parties or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates, excluding any disputes against any Arranger, Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent or any similar role
under this Agreement, acting in such capacity. 

  
 166 







 (b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit
Party hereby waives, any claim against each Lender, each Issuing Bank, each Agent and their respective Affiliates, officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors employees, attorneys, agents, sub-agents or controlling Persons, on any
theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of,
in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby,
any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Credit Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether
or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. Other than with respect the obligations of each Credit Party pursuant to Section 10.3(a), to the extent permitted by applicable law, no Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent
shall assert, and each Lender, Issuing Bank and Agent hereby waives, any claim against each Credit Party and their respective Affiliates, officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors employees, attorneys, agents, sub-agents or
controlling Persons, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any
applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and no Lender, Issuing Bank and Agent hereby waives, releases and agrees
not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. 

(c) Each Credit Party also agrees that no Lender, Agent, Issuing Bank nor their respective Affiliates, officers, partners, members, directors,
trustees, advisors, employees, controlling Persons, attorneys, agents or sub-agents will have any liability, based on its or their exclusive or contributory negligence or otherwise, to any Credit Party (or their respective Affiliates) or any Person
asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any Credit Party (or their respective Affiliates) or any other Person in connection with or as a result of this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or
thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, in each case, except in the
case of any Credit Party to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by such Credit Party or its affiliates, shareholders, partners or other equity holders have been found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach (other than by an Agent) of its express obligations under the Financing Documents by, such Lender, Issuing Bank, Agent or their
respective Affiliates, officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors, employees, controlling Persons, attorneys, agents or sub-agents in performing its obligations under this Agreement or


  
 167 







 
any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein; provided, however, that in no event will such Lender, Issuing
Bank, Agent, or their respective Affiliates, officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors, employees, controlling persons, attorneys, agents or sub-agents have any liability for any indirect, consequential, special or punitive damages
in connection with or as a result of such Lender’s, Issuing Bank’s, Agent’s or their respective Affiliates’, officers’, partners’, members’, directors’, trustees’, advisors’, employees’,
controlling Persons’, attorneys’, agents’ or sub-agents’ activities related to this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Credit Parties shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnitee for any Indemnified Liabilities arising solely out of disputes as between the Indemnitees that are not based on any act or omission of the Credit
Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, excluding any disputes against Administrative Agent acting in such capacity. 

(d) Promptly after receipt by any Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent of notice of its involvement in any action, proceeding or investigation, such
Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent will, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against the Credit Parties under this Section 10.3, notify Borrower in writing of such involvement. Failure by any Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent
to so notify Borrower will not relieve the Credit Parties from the obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees under this Section 10.3 except to the extent that the Credit Parties suffer actual prejudice as a result of such failure, and will not
relieve the Credit Parties from their obligation to provide reimbursement and contribution to such Lenders, Issuing Banks or Agents. 

This Section 10.3 shall not apply with respect to Taxes that are imposed with respect to payments to or for the account of any
Agent or any Lender under any Financing Document which are covered by Section 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) or that are specifically excluded from the scope of Section 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.). 

10.4 Set Off.  

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default each Lender and each Issuing Bank is hereby authorized by each Credit Party at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Credit Party or to any other Person (other than Administrative Agent), any such
notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including
trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party to such
Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder, the Letters of Credit and participations therein and under the other Financing Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto, the Letters of Credit and
participations therein or with any other Financing Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any amounts in
respect of the Letters of Credit or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 (Loans and Letters of 

  
 168 







 
Credit) and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such
right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.16 (Ratable Sharing) and 2.21 (Defaulting Lenders) and,
pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Issuing Banks and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to
Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this
Section 10.4 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have.  

10.5 Amendments and Waivers. 

(a) Requisite Lenders’ Consent. Subject to the additional requirements of Sections 10.5(b) (Affected Lenders’
Consent) and 10.5(c) (Other Consents), no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Financing Documents, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the
written concurrence of Requisite Lenders; provided that Administrative Agent may, with the consent of Borrower only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any other Financing Document (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect
or inconsistency (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent), so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender (or any Issuing Bank if applicable) or the Lenders shall have received at
least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Requisite Lenders stating that the Requisite
Lenders object to such amendment, (ii) to enter into additional or supplemental Security Documents, or (iii) to release Collateral or Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with Section 6.6 (Fundamental Changes; Disposition of Assets;
Acquisitions) of this Agreement and the Security Documents.

modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would: 
 (i) extend the scheduled Final Maturity Date of

extension of a final maturity date; 
 (ii) waive, reduce or postpone any scheduled repayment (but not prepayment or mandatory
prepayment, which shall be governed by Section 10.5(a) (Requisite Lenders’ Consent)) of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.11 (Scheduled Payments) without the written consent of the Lender or Issuing Bank holding such
Loan; 
 (iii) extend the Letter of Credit Expiration Date beyond the DSR Commitment Termination Date and/or Revolving Commitment

 169 







 (iv) reduce the rate of interest on any Loan (other than any waiver of any increase in

premium or fee is payable hereunder; 
 (v) extend the time for payment of any amortization, interest, fees or premium payable to a
Lender under this Agreement without the written consent of the Lender to which such amortization, interest, fee or premium is payable (it being understood that the waiver of any mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an extension of any time for
payment of interest or fees unless expressly agreed in such waiver); 
 (vi) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or any reimbursement
obligation in respect of any Letter of Credit without the written consent of such Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank to which such reimbursement obligation is payable;

substantially the same basis as the Term Loan Commitments, the Term Loans, the Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Loans, the DSR Commitments and the DSR Loans are included on the Closing Date;

such release), without the written consent of all Lenders and Issuing Banks; or 
 (x) consent to the assignment or transfer by any
Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Financing Document, without the written consent of all Lenders, except with respect to any such assignment or transfer resulting from any transactions permitted by Section 6.7
(Fundamental Changes; Disposition of Assets; Acquisitions); 
 provided that, (1) for the avoidance of doubt, all
Lenders and Issuing Banks shall be deemed directly affected thereby with respect to any amendment described in clauses (vii), (viii) and (ix) and (2) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and


  
 170 







 
signed by the applicable Issuing Bank in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of such Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any Issuer Document relating to any
Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; and (3) any amendment, waiver or consent of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Term Loan Lenders (but not the Issuing Banks), the Revolving

the consent of such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuance Commitment of any Issuing Bank over the amount thereof in effect without the consent of such Issuing Bank; provided, no amendment, modification or waiver of any condition precedent,

without the consent of Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate Term Loan Exposure of all Lenders, Revolving Exposure of all WC Issuing Banks and Revolving Lenders, or DSR Exposure of all DSR Issuing Banks, as applicable, of each type of Loan
that is being allocated a lesser repayment or prepayment as a result thereof; provided, Requisite Lenders may waive, in whole or in part, any prepayment so long as the application of any portion of such prepayment which is still required to
be made is not altered; 
 (iii) [Reserved.];

 171 







 (d) Execution of Amendments, Etc. Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation
to, with the concurrence of any Lender or any Issuing Bank, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender or Issuing Bank. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or
consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each Lender and Issuing Bank at the time outstanding, each future Lender or Issuing Bank and, if signed by a Credit Party, on such Credit Party. 

(e) Additional Amendments Provisions. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit an amendment and/or amendment and restatement of this
Agreement consented to by the Requisite Lenders, Borrower and Administrative Agent to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement (it being understood that no Lender or Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to provide or to
commit to provide all or any portion of any such additional credit facility) and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of

Financing Documents will be determined in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 10.6 Successors and Assigns;
Participations. 
 (a) Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and permitted assigns of Lenders. No Credit Party’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated
by any Credit Party without the prior written consent of all Lenders (except to the extent resulting from any transaction permitted pursuant to Section 6.6(a) (Fundamental Changes; Disposition of Assets; Acquisitions)). Nothing in this
Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents
and Lenders and other Indemnitees) any benefit, legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until recorded in the
Register following receipt of a fully executed Assignment Agreement 

  
 172 







 
effecting the assignment or transfer thereof, together with the required forms and certificates regarding tax matters and any fees payable in connection with such assignment, in each case, as

prompt notice thereof shall be provided to Borrower and a copy of such Assignment Agreement shall be maintained, as applicable. The date of such recordation of a transfer shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective
Date.” Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender or Issuing Bank shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent
holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans. 
 (c) Right to Assign.  

(i) Term Lender Assignments. Each Term Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligations (provided, however, that pro rata assignments shall not be required and each assignment shall be of a
uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Loan and any related Commitments): 

(A) to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (i) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” upon the giving of

(ii) WC Issuing Bank and Revolving Lender Assignments. Each WC Issuing Bank (in such capacity and in its capacity as a Revolving
Lender) shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and Revolving Loans owing to it and any WC Letters of
Credit that it has issued (provided, however, that pro rata assignments shall not be required and each assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable
Revolving Loan and any related Revolving Commitments; provided, further, that no partial assignment of any outstanding Letter of Credit shall be permitted) to a Person with the Required Ratings who is


  
 173 







 
also an Eligible Assignee and reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent as a WC Issuing Bank hereunder and consented to by Borrower (such consent not to be (x) unreasonably withheld or
delayed or, (y) in the case of Borrower, required at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing); provided further that (A) Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it
shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof. Upon a WC Issuing Banks assignment of L/C Obligations, Revolving Commitments and outstanding Revolving Loans to an additional
WC Issuing Bank, (a) such additional WC Issuing Bank shall become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of a WC Issuing Bank hereunder, and (b) the assignee WC Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in
substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, assigned to such Issuing Bank. 
 (iii) DSR Issuing Bank Assignments. Each DSR
Issuing Bank shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its DSR Commitment and LC/ Obligations owing to it (provided that
such assignment shall be pro rata across all of its L/C Obligations; DSR Commitments and outstanding DSR Loans) to a Person with the Required Ratings who is also an Eligible Assignee and reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent as a DSR

provided further that (A) Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof. Upon a DSR
Issuing Banks assignment of all or a portion of its L/C Obligations, Revolving Commitments and outstanding Revolving Loans to an additional DSR Issuing Bank, (a) such additional DSR Issuing Bank shall become vested with all of the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of a DSR Issuing Bank hereunder, and (b) the assignor DSR Issuing Bank and assignee DSR Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such
assignment. 
 (d) Mechanics. 

(i) Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Commitments by Lenders shall be effected by manual execution and delivery to
Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Effective Date. In connection with all assignments there shall be delivered to Administrative Agent such
forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to withholding tax matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.19(c) (Status of Lenders), together with payment to
Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable in the case of an assignee which is already a Lender or is an affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender or a Person
under common management with a Lender).  
 (ii) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting
Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount
sufficient, upon 

  
 174 







 
distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the
consent of Borrower and Administrative Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and
satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Share of all Loans.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of
such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 
 (e)
Representations and Warranties of Assignee. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the
Assignment Effective Date that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Commitments or Loans, as the case may be; (iii) it will
make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitments or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such Commitments or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal
securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.6, the disposition of such Commitments or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control); and (iv) it will not
provide any information (other than customary administrative information) obtained by it in its capacity as a Lender to Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower. 

(f) Effect of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.6, as of the “Assignment Effective
Date” (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder and under the other Financing Documents to the extent of its interest in the Loans and Commitments as reflected in the Register and
shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish its rights
(other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under Section 10.8 (Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements)) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or
the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on the Assignment Effective Date; provided, anything contained in any of the Financing Documents to the
contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender
hereunder); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect any Commitment of such assignee and any Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the
assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so
requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.  

  
 175 







 (g) Participations. 

(i) Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations without restriction to any Person (other than
Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates, or any natural Person) in all or any part of its Term Loan Commitments, Term Loans, Revolving Loans or in any other Obligation. Each Lender that sells a participation pursuant
to this Section 10.6(g) shall, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it records the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated
interest) of each participant’s participation interest with respect to the Commitments, Loans and other Obligations (each, a “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or
any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the
extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States
Treasury Regulations. Unless otherwise required by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. The entries in the
Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the applicable participation for all purposes under this Agreement,
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 
 (ii) The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the
Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (A) extend the final scheduled maturity of any
Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post default increase in interest rates) or reduce the
principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall
not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof),
(B) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent resulting from any transaction permitted pursuant to Section 6.7(a) (Fundamental Changes;
Disposition of Assets; Acquisitions) or (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Security Documents or all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from the Guaranty (in each case, except as expressly
provided in the Financing Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating. 
 (iii)
Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest 

  
 176 







 
Periods), 2.18 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) and 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment
pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 10.6; provided, (x) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.18 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding,
Etc.) than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, (A) except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs
after the participant acquired the applicable participation or (B) unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (y) a participant
shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) unless such participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) and provide all forms
required by Section 2.19(c) (Status of Lenders) as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the forms required by Section 2.19(c) (Status of Lenders) shall be delivered to the participating Lender) and (z) a
participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.20 and 2.22 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (c) of this Section; provided further that, except as specifically set forth in clauses (x) and (y) of this
sentence, nothing herein shall require any notice to Borrower or any other Person in connection with the sale of any participation. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.4
(Set-Off) as though it were a Lender, provided such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16 (Ratable Sharing) as though it were a Lender. 

(h) Certain Other Assignments and Participations. In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted pursuant to this
Section 10.6 any Lender or Issuing Bank may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender or Issuing Bank, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of
such Lender including any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank; provided, that no Lender or Issuing
Bank, as between Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further, that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or
trustee, be considered to be a “Lender” or “Issuing Bank” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder. 

10.7 Independence of Covenants. 

All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such
covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. Any
determination regarding whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred or is existing or continuing under this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall be made by Borrower and the Requisite Lenders (or Administrative Agent) to the
extent such Default or Event of Default, if it had occurred, would be waivable by the Requisite Lenders pursuant to Section 10.5 (Amendments and Waivers) hereof. The Lenders shall act collectively through Administrative Agent with
respect to all such determinations; provided that the Requisite Lenders may direct Administrative Agent with respect to any such determination; provided further that the foregoing shall not in any manner prohibit any Lender from
communicating with  

  
 177 







 
any other Lender or with Administrative Agent regarding any such actual or claimed Event of Default, Default, default, event or condition, what action Borrower have taken, are taking and propose
to take with respect thereto, the terms and conditions of any amendment or waiver with respect to such Default or Event of Default or any other matter relating to the Credit Parties or any Financing Document. 

10.8 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. 

All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit
Extension. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Credit Party set forth in Sections 2.17(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods), 2.18 (Increased Costs;
Capital Adequacy), 2.19 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.), 10.2 (Expenses), 10.3 (Indemnity), 10.4 (Set-Off), 10.8 and 10.23 (No Fiduciary Duty) and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.16 (Ratable
Sharing), 9.3(b) (Exculpatory Provisions) and 9.6 (Right to Indemnity) shall survive the payment of the Loans, the cancellation or expiration of the Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder and the
termination hereof. 
 10.9 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. 

No failure or delay on the part of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or
under any other Financing Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or
further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by
virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Financing Documents. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be
construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy. Nothing herein shall prohibit any Issuing Bank from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity
as Issuing Bank) hereunder and under the other Financing Documents. 
 10.10 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. 

Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or
against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders or any Issuing Bank), or
any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender enforces any security interests or exercises any right of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the
obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such
enforcement or setoff had not occurred. 

  
 178 







 10.11 Severability. 

In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Financing Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Without limiting the foregoing
provisions of this Section 10.11, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by Administrative Agent or an
Issuing Bank, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited. 
 10.12 Obligations
Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. 
 The obligations of Lenders (which term shall include each Issuing Bank
for purposes of this Section 10.12) hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Financing Document, and no action taken by
Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a Joint Venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent
debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and (subject to the provisions hereof) enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose. 
 10.13 Headings. 

Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or
be given any substantive effect. 
 10.14 APPLICABLE LAW. 

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER (INCLUDING ANY CLAIMS SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW OR TORT LAW ARISING
OUT OF THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND ANY DETERMINATIONS WITH RESPECT TO POST-JUDGMENT INTEREST) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS
PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 10.15 CONSENT TO
JURISDICTION. SUBJECT TO CLAUSE (E) OF THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE, ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO OR ANY OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, SHALL BE BROUGHT IN ANY FEDERAL
COURT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 

  
 179 







 
SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN OR, IF THAT COURT DOES NOT HAVE SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, IN ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE CITY AND COUNTY OF NEW YORK. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS
AGREEMENT, EACH CREDIT PARTY, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY (A) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS (OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO ACTIONS BY ANY AGENT IN
RESPECT OF RIGHTS UNDER ANY SECURITY AGREEMENT GOVERNED BY A LAWS OTHER THAN THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR WITH RESPECT TO ANY COLLATERAL SUBJECT THERETO); (B) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; (C) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF
ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 10.1; (D) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS
PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (C) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT; AND (E) AGREES
THAT AGENTS, ISSUING BANKS AND LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS
UNDER ANY SECURITY DOCUMENT OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT. EACH CREDIT PARTY, FOR ITSELF AND ITS AFFILIATES, AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON
THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. 
 10.16 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR
ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED
TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.
EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS
RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS 

  
 180 







 
THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE,
MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 10.16 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT
AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN
CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT. 
 10.17 Confidentiality. 

Each Agent and each Lender (which term shall for the purposes of this Section 10.17 include each Issuing Bank) shall hold all non-public
information regarding Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and their respective businesses identified as such by Borrower and obtained by such Agent or such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Agent’s and
such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by Borrower that, in any event, Administrative Agent may disclose such information to the Lenders and each Agent and each
Lender and each Agent may make (i) disclosures of such information to Affiliates of such Lender or Agent and to their respective officers, directors, partners, members, employees, legal counsel, independent auditors and other experts, agents
and advisors (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.17) who need to know such information and
on a confidential basis, (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any potential or prospective assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any
participations therein, by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Borrower and its obligations under the Loans or any potential providers of credit
protection, in each case, who are advised of the confidential nature of such information, (iii) disclosure to any rating agency on a confidential basis; provided that such information is supplied to such rating agency after consultation
with Administrative Agent, (iv) disclosure on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans, (v) disclosures in connection
with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Financing Document, (vi) disclosures to the extent that such information is publicly available or becomes publicly available other than by reason of improper disclosure by such
Person, (vii) disclosures received by a Person on a non-confidential basis from a source (other than the disclosing party or any of its affiliates, advisors, members, directors, employees, agents or other representatives) not known by such
Person to be prohibited from disclosing such information to such Person by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation, (viii) disclosures to the extent that such information was already in the disclosing party’s possession or is
independently developed by the disclosing party, (ix) with respect to the Arrangers only, disclosures for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense, (x) disclosures to market data collectors and similar services
providers in the 

  
 181 







 
lending industry, and service providers to Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of the Loans, (xi) disclosures required or
requested by any court, administrative or governmental agency, body, committee or representative thereof or by the NAIC or pursuant to applicable law or legal, administrative or judicial process, or pursuant to a subpoena or order issued by a court
of competent jurisdiction, in which case such Person agrees to inform Borrower promptly thereof to the extent permitted by applicable law and (xii) disclosures upon the request or demand of any regulatory or quasi-regulatory authority
purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or any of its Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, each party (and each of their respective employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all
Persons without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to any such party relating to
such tax treatment and tax structure. However, any information relating to the tax treatment or tax structure shall remain subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent reasonably
necessary to enable the parties hereto, their respective Affiliates, and their respective Affiliates’ directors and employees to comply with applicable securities laws. For this purpose, “tax structure” means any facts relevant to the
U.S. federal income tax treatment of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement but does not include information relating to the identity of any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Affiliates. 

10.18 Usury Savings Clause. 

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged by any Lender with respect to any of the Obligations,
including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law, shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding
sentence) under this Agreement charged by any Lender at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender, the outstanding amount of the Loans held by such Lender made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until
the total amount of interest due thereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due thereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made
thereunder are repaid in full the total interest due thereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due thereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this
Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid to such Lender and the amount of interest which would
have been paid to such Lender if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender
contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such
Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder to such Lender or be refunded to Borrower. 
 10.19
Effectiveness; Counterparts. 

  
 182 







 This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the
parties hereto and receipt by Borrower and Administrative Agent of written notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and
delivered shall be deemed an original, and all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic format (i.e.,
“pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 10.20 Entire
Agreement. 
 This Agreement and the other Financing Documents with respect to fees payable to Administrative Agent or the
syndication of the Loans and Commitments constitute the entire contract and understanding among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the
subject matter hereof. 
 10.21 PATRIOT Act. 

Each Lender and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the
requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender or
Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Credit Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the PATRIOT Act and is effective for each Lender, Agent and Issuing Bank. 

10.22 Electronic Execution of Assignments. 

The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement shall be
deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as an original executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as
the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state,
provincial or territorial laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 10.23 No Fiduciary Duty. 

Each Agent, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the
“Lenders”), are full service financial institutions engaged, either directly or through their respective affiliates, in a broad array of activities, including commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, market making and
trading, investment management (both public and private investing), investment research, principal investment, financial planning, benefits counseling, risk management, hedging, financing, brokerage and other financial and non-financial activities
and services globally. In the ordinary course of their various business activities, each Lender and funds or other entities in 

  
 183 







 
which the Lenders invest or with which they co-invest, may at any time purchase, sell, hold or vote long or short positions and investments in securities, derivatives, loans, commodities,
currencies, credit default swaps and other financial instruments for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. In addition, any Lender may at any time communicate independent recommendations and/or publish or express independent
research views in respect of such assets, securities or instruments. Any of the aforementioned activities may involve or relate to assets, securities and/or instruments of Borrower and/or any of its Affiliates, as well as of Borrower and/or other
Persons which (i) may be involved in transactions arising from or relating to the Transactions or (ii) have other relationships with Borrower or its Affiliates. In addition, any Lender may provide investment banking, commercial banking,
underwriting and financial advisory services to such other Persons. The Transactions may have a direct or indirect impact on the investments, securities or instruments referred to in this Section 10.23, and employees working on the financing
contemplated hereby may have been involved in originating certain of such investments and those employees may receive credit internally therefor, and may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties, their respective equity
holders and/or their respective Affiliates. Although any Lender in the course of such other activities and relationships may acquire information about the Transaction or other Persons which may be the subject of the Transactions, none of the Lenders
shall have any obligation to disclose such information, or the fact that such Lender is in possession of such information, to the Credit Parties or to use such information on the Credit Parties’ behalf. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees
that nothing in the Financing Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, their respective equity
holders or their respective Affiliates, on the other. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) each Lender will act under the Financing Documents as an independent contractor, (ii) the transactions contemplated by the Financing
Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other, and (iii) in connection therewith and
with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, their respective equity holders or their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Credit Party, its equity holders or its Affiliates on other
matters) or any other obligation to any Credit Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Financing Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Credit Party, any of their
respective management, equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other Person. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that the Credit Parties,
their respective equity holders and their respective Affiliates are each responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party agrees that it will not claim that any
Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Credit Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. In addition, any Lender may employ the services of its
Affiliates in providing services hereunder and may exchange with such Affiliates information concerning the Borrower or its equity holders or their respective Affiliates and other companies that may be the subject of the Transactions, and such
Affiliates will be entitled to the 

  
 184 







 
benefits afforded to such Lender hereunder. Consistent with each Lender’s policies to hold in confidence the affairs of its customers, each Lender will not furnish confidential information
obtained from the Credit Parties by virtue of the Transactions to any of its other customers. Furthermore, the Credit Parties acknowledge that none of the Lenders or any of their respective Affiliates has an obligation to use in connection with the
Transactions, or to furnish to the Credit Parties, confidential information obtained or that may be obtained by them from any other Person. 

Each of the Lenders or Issuing Banks or its respective Affiliates are, or may at any time be, a counterparty (in such capacities, the
“Derivative Counterparties”) to the Credit Parties and/or any of their respective subsidiaries with respect to one or more agreements with respect to any swap, forward, future or derivative transaction or option or similar agreement
involving, or settled by reference to, one or more rates, currencies, commodities, equity or debt instruments or securities, or economic, financial or pricing indices or measures of economic, financial or pricing risk or value or any similar
transaction or any combination of these transactions, in each case, entered into by to the Credit Parties (collectively, the “Derivatives”). Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees for itself and its subsidiaries that each
Derivative Counterparty (a) will be acting for its own account as principal in connection with the Derivatives, (b) will be under no obligation or duty as a result of such Lender’s or its respective Affiliates’ role in connection
with the Transactions or otherwise to take any action or refrain from taking any action, or exercising any rights or remedies, that such Derivative Counterparty may be entitled to take or exercise in respect of the applicable Derivatives and
(c) may manage its exposure to the Derivatives without regard to such Lenders’ or its respective Affiliates’ role hereunder. 

10.24 Authorization of Filing of Financing Statements. 

Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to file one or more financing statements (including fixture filings), continuation statements, or other
documents for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the security interest granted by each Credit Party pursuant to the Security Documents to which it is a party, without the signature of any Credit Party, and
naming any Credit Party as debtor and Collateral Agent as secured party. Each Credit Party authorizes Collateral Agent to use the collateral description “all assets,” “all personal property, whether now existing or hereafter
acquired,” “all of the debtor’s assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired” or words of similar effect in any such financing statements filed or other filings for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing
or protecting the security interest granted hereunder by such Credit Party. 
 10.25 Limited Recourse. 

Subject to Section 10.25(b) below, each Secured Party that is a party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the
Credit Parties under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, including with respect to the payment of the principal of or premium or penalty, if any, or interest on any Obligations, or any part thereof, or for any claim based thereon or
otherwise in respect thereof or related thereto, are obligations solely of the Credit Parties and shall be satisfied solely from the security and assets of the Credit Parties and shall not constitute a debt or obligation of Affiliates of the
Borrower (other than the Credit Parties), nor of any past, present or future shareholders, partners, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or representatives of the Credit Parties and their Affiliates (collectively (but
excluding the Credit Parties), the “Non-Recourse Parties”). 

  
 185 







 (a) Each Secured Party that is a party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, subject to
Section 10.25(b) below, the Non-Recourse Parties shall not be liable for any amount payable under this Agreement or any other Financing Document, and no Secured Party shall seek a money judgment or deficiency or personal judgment against any
Non-Recourse Party for payment or performance of any obligation of the Credit Parties under this Agreement or the other Financing Documents. 

(b) The acknowledgments, agreements and waivers set out in this Section 10.25 shall be enforceable by any Non-Recourse Party and are a
material inducement for the execution of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents by the Credit Parties; provided, however, that: 

(i) the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.25 shall not constitute a waiver, release or discharge of Borrower for any of the
