the case may be, in an aggregate amount in excess of the increase in the Maximum Credit requested by Administrative Borrower or permitted hereunder, Agent shall then have the right to allocate such Commitments in such amounts and manner as Agent may
determine, after consultation with Administrative Borrower. 
 (c) The Maximum Credit shall be increased by the amount of the
increase in Commitments from Lenders or new Commitments from Eligible Transferees, in each case selected in accordance with Section 2.5(b) above, for which Agent has received Assignment and Acceptances (or other agreements acceptable to Agent)
within forty (40) days after the date of the request by Administrative Borrower for the increase or such earlier date as Agent and Administrative Borrower may agree (but in each case subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth
below), whether or not the aggregate amount of the increase in Commitments and new Commitments, as the case may be, equal or exceed the amount of the increase in the Maximum Credit requested by Administrative Borrower in accordance with the terms
hereof, effective on the date that each of the following conditions have been satisfied: 
 (i) Agent shall have received
from each Lender that is providing an additional Commitment or Eligible Transferee that is providing a new Commitment as part of the increase in the Maximum Credit an Assignment and Acceptance (or other agreement acceptable to Agent), duly executed
by such Lender or Eligible Transferee and Administrative Borrower, provided, that, the aggregate Commitments set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance(s) shall be not less than $5,000,000; 
  

 4 








 (ii) the conditions precedent to the making of Loans set forth in Section 4.2
hereof shall be satisfied as of the date of the increase in the Maximum Credit, both before and after giving effect to such increase; 
 (iii) Agent shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of Administrative Borrower certifying, among other things, that: (A) after giving effect
to the increase in the Maximum Credit, the Indebtedness under this Agreement shall continue to be “Permitted Indebtedness” for all purposes under the Indenture, and (B) after giving effect to any such increase in the Maximum Credit,
the performance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and the incurrence of Obligations by Borrowers and Guarantors (1) are within each Borrower’s and Guarantor’s corporate or limited
liability company powers, (2) have been duly authorized by each Borrower and Guarantor, (3) are not in contravention of law or the terms of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation, by
laws, operating agreement or other organizational documentation, or any indenture (including the Indenture), agreement or undertaking to which any Borrower or Guarantor is a party or by which any Borrower or Guarantor or its property are bound, and
(4) will not result in the creation or imposition of, or require or give rise to any obligation to grant, any lien, security interest, charge or other encumbrance upon any property of any Borrower or Guarantor, other than the liens in favor of
Agent; 
 (iv) Agent shall have received an opinion of counsel to Borrowers and Guarantors in form and substance and from
counsel reasonably satisfactory to Agent addressing such matters as Agent may reasonably request (including, without limitation, an opinion as to no conflicts with agreements governing other Indebtedness); 
 (v) such increase in the Maximum Credit on the date of the effectiveness thereof shall not violate any applicable law, regulation or
order or decree of any court or other Governmental Authority and shall not be enjoined, temporarily, preliminarily or permanently; and 
 (vi) each Lender providing an additional Commitment and each Eligible Transferee providing a new Commitment in connection with such increase in the Maximum Credit shall have received all fees (including any additional
commitment fees) and Agent shall have received all fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) in each case due and payable to such Person on or before the effectiveness of such increase; and 
  

 5 








 (d) As of the effective date of any such increase in the Maximum Credit, (i) each
reference to the term Maximum Credit herein, and in any of the other Financing Agreements shall be deemed to have been amended to mean the amount of the Maximum Credit specified in the most recent written notice from Agent to Administrative Borrower
of the increase in the Maximum Credit, and (ii) Schedule 1.27 hereto shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the Commitments and Pro Rata Shares of each Lender and each Eligible Transferee providing a new Commitment (if any) after
giving effect to such increase in the Maximum Credit.”
