 1. Amendments to the Existing ABL Credit
Agreement. The Existing ABL Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows: 
 (a) Section 1.01 of the Existing ABL Credit Agreement is
hereby amended by adding the following definitions thereto in appropriate alphabetical order: 
 “Independent Assets or
Operations” means, with respect to any Parent Company, that Parent Company’s’ total assets, revenues, income from continuing operations before income taxes and cash flows from operating activities (excluding in each case amounts
related to its investment in the Lead Borrower and its Subsidiaries), determined in accordance with GAAP and as shown on the most recent balance sheet of such Parent Company, is more than 3.0% of such Parent Company’s corresponding consolidated
amount. 
 “Parent Company” means any Person so long as such Person directly or indirectly holds 100.0% of the total voting
power of the Equity Interests of the Lead Borrower. 
 (b) Section 6.01 of the Existing ABL Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the
following new paragraph immediately following clause (d) thereof: 
 “Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations referred to in
Sections 6.01(a) through 6.01(c) may be satisfied with respect to financial information of the Lead Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries by furnishing (A) the applicable financial statements of any Parent Company or (B) the Lead
Borrower’s or such Parent Company’s Form 10-K or 10-Q, as applicable, filed with the SEC (and the public filing of such report with the SEC shall constitute
delivery under this Section 












 
6.01); provided that with respect to each of the preceding clauses (A) and (B), (1) to the extent such information relates to a Parent Company of the Lead Borrower, if
and so long as such Parent Company will have Independent Assets or Operations, such information is accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to such Parent Company
and its Independent Assets or Operations, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Lead Borrower and the consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand and (2) to the extent such information is in
lieu of information required to be provided under Section 6.01(a) (it being understood that such information may be audited at the option of the Lead Borrower), such materials are accompanied by a report and opinion of a
Registered Public Accounting Firm of nationally recognized standing reasonably acceptable to the Agent, which report and opinion shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and shall not be subject to any “going
concern” or like qualification or exception or any qualification or exception as to the scope of such audit or be subject to any explanatory statement (other than an “emphasis of matter” paragraph) as to the Lead Borrower’s
ability to continue as a “going concern” or like qualification (other than with respect to (i) the impending maturity of any Material Indebtedness or (ii) any actual or prospective breach of any financial maintenance
covenant).” 
 2. Representations and Warranties. To induce the other parties hereto to enter into this Agreement, the Loan
Parties represent and warrant to each of the Lenders party hereto and the Agent that, after giving effect to this Agreement:

3. Conditions Precedent. This Agreement and the amendments set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement shall
become effective on the first date when:

(b) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket
costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agent) of the Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall
have been paid, to the extent invoiced. 
 Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 10.01(a) of the Amended ABL Credit Agreement,
for purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this Section 3, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, this

5. Amendment, Modification and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived except in accordance with the
Amended ABL Credit Agreement. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Agent under any of the Loan Documents,
nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents. 
 6. Loan Document. This Agreement shall constitute a
Loan Document for all purposes of the Amended ABL Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
