W I T N E S S E T H: 

WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Lenders from time to time party thereto and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the

Agreement, dated as of August 16, 2013, the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of May 7, 2014, the Third Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of July 13, 2016, the Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of
February 6, 2017, and as otherwise heretofore amended, the “Credit Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested
that (a) the Persons set forth on Schedule I hereto (the “New Refinancing Tranche B Term Lenders”) make term loans (the “New Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of $7,797,630.38
to the Borrower on the Fifth Amendment Effective Date (as defined below) and (b) the Exchanging Lenders (as defined below) exchange their Existing Tranche B Term Loans (as defined below) for term loans of like aggregate principal amount (the
“Exchanged Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans” and, together with the New Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans, the “Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans”), in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein;
and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 10.1(c) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Refinancing Tranche
B Term Lenders (as defined below) agree to amend the Credit Agreement as set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

SECTION ONE – REFINANCING TRANCHE B TERM LOANS. 

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Credit Agreement, each New Refinancing Tranche B
Term Lender severally agrees to make New Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans in Dollars to the Borrower on the Fifth Amendment Effective Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the amount set forth opposite such New Refinancing Tranche B
Term Lender’s name on Schedule I hereto. Amounts borrowed under this Section 1(a) and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. 







 (b)    The proceeds of the New Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans shall be used
solely to repay in full all Initial Tranche B Term Loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness hereof (the “Existing Tranche B Term Loans”), other than the Existing Tranche B Term Loans of the
Exchanging Lenders that are exchanged for Exchanged Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans and deemed repaid pursuant to paragraph (d) below, and to pay related accrued and unpaid interest, fees and expenses. 

(c)    Unless previously terminated, the commitments of the New Refinancing Tranche B Term Lenders pursuant to
Section 1(a) shall terminate upon the making of the New Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans on the Fifth Amendment Effective Date. 

(d)    Each lender holding Existing Tranche B Term Loans that executes and delivers a signature page to this Amendment and
indicates thereon its election of the “Cashless Settlement Option” (each such Lender, an “Exchanging Lender” and, together with the New Refinancing Tranche B Term Lenders, the “Refinancing Tranche B Term
Lenders”; each Tranche B Term Lender that does not so elect, a “Non-Exchanging Lender”) severally agrees, on the Fifth Amendment Effective Date and subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein and in the Credit Agreement, to exchange all (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may allocate to such Lender (any such Existing Tranche B Term Loans of such Lender not allocated for exchange pursuant hereto, its
“Non-Allocated Existing Tranche B Term Loans”)) of its Existing Tranche B Term Loans (the aggregate principal amount of Existing Tranche B Term Loans of such Lender so exchanged, its
“Exchanged Amount”) for Exchanged Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans (which Existing Tranche B Term Loans so exchanged shall thereafter be deemed repaid and canceled and no longer be outstanding) in an aggregate principal amount equal
to its Exchanged Amount. All accrued and unpaid interest on, and all other amounts owing in respect of, the Existing Tranche B Term Loans of each Exchanging Lender that are exchanged pursuant to this paragraph (d) (less the Exchanged Amount)
shall be repaid in full in cash on the Fifth Amendment Effective Date. 
 (e)    The Existing Tranche B Term Loans of
each Non-Exchanging Lender and the Non-Allocated Existing Tranche B Term Loans of each Exchanging Lender shall be repaid in full in cash on the Fifth Amendment Effective
Date, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on, and all other amounts owing in respect of, such Existing Tranche B Term Loans. 

(f)    Unless the context shall otherwise require, the New Refinancing Tranche B Term Lenders and the Exchanging Lenders
shall constitute “Tranche B Term Lenders”, “Term Lenders” and “Lenders” and the New Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans and Exchanged Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans shall constitute “Initial Tranche B Term
Loans”, “Tranche B Term Loans”, “Term Loans” and “Loans”, in each case for all purposes of the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby) and the other Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the New Refinancing
Tranche B Term Loans and the Exchanged Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans shall constitute a single Tranche under the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION TWO – CREDIT AGREEMENT AMENDMENTS.    Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section Three hereof: 
 (a)    The following defined term shall be added to Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement in
the appropriate alphabetical order: 
 “Fifth Amendment Effective Date”: March 7, 2018. 

  
 2 








 (b)    The definition of “Applicable Margin” or “Applicable
Commitment Fee Rate” set forth in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the percentages “1.25%” and “2.25%” in clause (ii) thereof with 1.00%” and “2.00%”, respectively.

 (c)    Section 2.3(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i) replacing “the last Business Day of
June, 2017” with “the last Business Day of June, 2018” and (ii) replacing “Fourth Amendment Effective Date” with “Fifth Amendment Effective Date” in all three places where it appears.

invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION SEVEN – CONTINUING EFFECT; NO OTHER WAIVERS
OR AMENDMENTS.    Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not (a) constitute a substitution or novation, or a payment and reborrowing, or a termination, of the Obligations outstanding under the Credit

constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Loan Parties under the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Loan Document, and
shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of

conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances. After the Fifth Amendment Effective Date,
any reference in any Loan Document to the Credit Agreement shall mean the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby. This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document for all purposes of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and the other Loan Documents.

 SECTION EIGHT – COUNTERPARTS.    This Amendment may be executed
by one or more of the parties to this Amendment on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Amendment
by facsimile or electronic (i.e. “pdf”) transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. 

SECTION NINE – PAYMENT OF FEES AND EXPENSES.    The Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse the
Administrative Agent for all of its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Amendment including, without limitation,
the reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel to the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION TEN – GOVERNING LAW.    THIS AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS
AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT THAT THE SAME ARE NOT MANDATORILY APPLICABLE BY STATUTE AND THE
APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. The provisions of Sections 10.12 and 10.17 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis. 

SECTION ELEVEN – TAX MATTERS.    For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA,
from and after the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Loans as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation”
