 ARTICLE II 

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES 

SECTION 2.01 The Advances. Each Lender severally and not jointly agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth (a) to
make a Tranche 1 Advance denominated in Sterling to each applicable Borrower on the Closing Date in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s outstanding Tranche 1 Commitment immediately prior to the making of the Tranche 1 Advance, (b) to
make a Tranche 2 Advance denominated in Dollars to each applicable Borrower (x) on the Closing Date in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s outstanding Tranche 2 Commitment immediately prior to the making of such Tranche 2 Advance and
(y) on a single date after the Closing Date during the Certain Funds Period and no later than the Delayed Draw Long Stop Date (such date, the “Delayed Draw Date”) in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s Delayed Draw
Commitment immediately prior to the making of such Tranche 2 Advance (such Advance, a “Delayed Draw Advance”) and (c) in the event that any Lender (other than an Initial Lender) shall have become a Non-Funding Lender, to make
Supplemental Advances (each, a “Supplemental Advance”) denominated in Sterling or Dollars, as applicable, on the Closing Date (or the Delayed Draw Date, if applicable) to each applicable Borrower in an amount deemed to be requested
by each such Borrower under Section 2.03 not exceeding such Lender’s remaining Commitment (after giving effect to all Tranche 1 Advances and Tranche 2 Advances made by such Lender pursuant to Sections 2.01(a) and (b)). For the avoidance of
doubt, each Supplemental Advance made by a Lender in respect of its Commitment under a particular Tranche shall be an Advance of the same Tranche. Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount equal to the Borrowing Minimum or a Borrowing Multiple
in excess thereof and shall consist of Advances of the same Type and Class made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective relevant Commitments. Upon the making of any Advance by a Lender such Lender’s Tranche 1
Commitment will be permanently reduced by the aggregate principal amount of such Tranche 1 Advance and such Lender’s Tranche 2 Commitment will be permanently reduced by the aggregate principal amount of such Tranche 2 Advance. Each Borrower may
prepay Advances pursuant to Section 2.10, provided that Advances may not be reborrowed once repaid. 

  
 -35- 








 SECTION 2.02 Making the Advances. 

(a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice by a Borrower, given not later than (x) 9:00 A.M. (Local Time) on (1) the fourth Business
Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing in Sterling or (2) the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing in Dollars consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances or
(y) 9:00 A.M. (New York time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or other
electronic communication. Each notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be in writing or by telephone, and if by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, including by telecopier (or other electronic communication)
in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) Type and Class of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such
Borrowing, (iv) initial Interest Period for such Advance, if such Borrowing is to consist of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (v) account or accounts in which the proceeds of the Borrowing should be credited and (vi) whether such notice is
conditioned on the occurrence of any event and if such notice is so conditioned, a description of such event. Each Lender shall, before 12:00 P.M. (London time) in the case of Advances in Sterling and 11:00 A.M. (New York time) in the case of
Advances in Dollars on the date of such Borrowing make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion
of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the applicable Borrower in
immediately available funds to the account or accounts specified by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent in the Notice of Borrowing relating to the applicable Borrowing. Anything in Section 2.02(a) to the contrary notwithstanding,
(i) Advances denominated in Sterling may only be requested and maintained as Eurocurrency Rate Advances (subject to Section 2.12), (ii) a Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars if the obligation of
the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.08 or 2.12 and (iii) the Eurocurrency Rate Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than ten separate Borrowings. 

(c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the applicable Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice
of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the applicable Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any reasonable loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the
date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any reasonable loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the
liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. 

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make
available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative 

  
 -36- 








 
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.02(a) and the Administrative Agent
may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender
and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay or to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the
date such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the applicable Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds
incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation. If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such
Borrower for such period. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding principal amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. Any
payment by such Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

(e) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its
obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing, except as set
forth in Section 2.03. 
 (f) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Advance to be made by such Lender
as provided herein, and such funds are not made available to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to such Borrowing are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 
 SECTION 2.03
Supplemental Advances. If any Lender (other than an Initial Lender) (such Lender a “Non-Funding Lender”) shall fail to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing
(a “Supplemental Borrowing”) to be made pursuant to Section 2.01(c) in aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (a) the aggregate principal amount of the Advances so failed to have been made by all Non-Funding Lenders
and (b) the aggregate remaining amount of all Lenders’ (other than the Non-Funding Lenders’) Commitments in respect of the relevant Tranche after giving effect to the prior funding of each such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the
relevant Advance. The Supplemental Borrowing shall be deemed to be requested to be made on the Closing Date (or the Delayed Draw Date, if applicable) as a Base Rate Advance, and the location and number of the account to which funds are deemed to be
requested to be disbursed in respect of the Supplemental Borrowing shall be identical to those specified by the applicable Borrower in the 

  
 -37- 








 
notice delivered in respect of the initial Borrowing. Promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Borrower and each Lender of any Lender
having become a Non-Funding Lender and shall advise each Lender of the amount of such Lender’s Supplemental Loan to be made under Section 2.01(c) as part of the Supplemental Borrowing. No amounts shall be reallocated from Tranche 1 to
Tranche 2 or vice versa as a result of this Section 2.03. 
 SECTION 2.04 Fees. 

(a) Commitment Fee. The Reporting Entity agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender
in accordance with its Pro Rata Share (other than a Defaulting Lender for such time as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender), a non-refundable commitment fee (x) on the Initial Effective Date, in an amount equal to 0.20% of the aggregate amount
of such Lender’s Commitments on such date and (y) on the Commitment Fee Payment Date, in an amount equal to 0.20% of the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Commitments on such date. 

(b) Ticking Fee. The Reporting Entity shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in
accordance with its Pro Rata Share (other than a Defaulting Lender for such time as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender), a ticking fee which shall accrue in an amount equal to 0.20% per annum on the aggregate outstanding amount of the undrawn
Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the date that is 60 days after the Initial Effective Date and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, during such
period until and upon the earlier of (i) the termination of such Lender’s Commitments and (ii) the Delayed Draw Date.

Duration Fee. The Reporting Entity will pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (subject to Section 2.19(a)(ii), and other than a Defaulting Lender for such time as such Lender is a Defaulting
Lender)) a duration fee on each date set forth below in an amount equal to the percentage set forth opposite such date of the aggregate principal amount of Advances held by such Lender on such date: 

 

					
	 DATE
	  	PERCENTAGE	 
	 90 days after the Closing Date

clauses (a), (b) and (c), pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers for their account (or that of their applicable Affiliate) such fees as may from time to time be agreed between any of the Consolidated
Group and the Administrative Agent and/or the Joint Lead Arrangers, including pursuant to the Fee Letter. 

  
 -38- 








 (e) Calculation of Commitment. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the definition
of “Mandatory Cancellation Event” and the ability thereunder for the Borrowers to provide notices and issue documents to facilitate a switch from a Scheme to a Takeover Offer and vice versa, the Commitment shall be deemed to be in effect
until the end of the day on which the applicable notice or issuance is required to but does not occur for the purposes of calculating any fees under this Agreement or any fee letters related hereto. 

SECTION 2.05 Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. 

(a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate in full at 11:59 P.M. (New York time) on the earliest of (i) the date on
which all of the Certain Funds Purposes have been achieved without the making of any Advances, (ii) the Delayed Draw Date after giving effect to any Borrowing on the Delayed Draw Date (including, if applicable, any Supplemental Advances) and
(iii) the date a Mandatory Cancellation Event occurs. Additionally, each Lender’s Tranche 1 Commitment will be permanently reduced upon such Lender making any Tranche 1 Advance and each Lender’s Tranche 2 Commitment will be
permanently reduced upon such Lender making any Tranche 2 Advance, in each case by the amount of such Advance. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Delayed Draw Notice from STERIS, the Delayed Draw Commitments will be permanently
reduced to an amount equal to the amount set forth in such Delayed Draw Notice. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. The foregoing shall not excuse any Defaulting Lender from liability for a failure to fund its
Commitment. Voluntary Reduction or Termination; Voluntary Prepayments. (i) The Reporting Entity may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the Commitments; provided that
(x) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on the date of termination or reduction, and (y) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any
whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the applicable Commitments. Any reduction of the Commitments shall be applied to the Tranche
1 Commitment and/or Tranche 2 Commitment (as specified by the Reporting Entity) of each Lender according to its proportional share of such Tranche. All undrawn commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the applicable
Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. 
 (ii) Each Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent,
prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances, in whole or in part; provided, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof,
(ii) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on the date of prepayment, in the case of any Base Rate Advance, or three Business Days prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of
Eurocurrency Rate Advance. 

  
 -39- 








 (c) Defaulting Lender Commitment Reductions. The Reporting Entity may terminate the unused
amount of the Commitments of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender upon not less than three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), it being understood that notwithstanding
such Commitment termination, the provisions of Section 2.19(c) will continue to apply to all amounts thereafter paid by any applicable Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal,
interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim any of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. 

(d) Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. If any Commitments are outstanding on the applicable date, the Commitments shall
be automatically (or, in the case of clause (iii) below only, upon notice) reduced, and after the Closing Date, the Advances shall be prepaid, in each case, on a Sterling-for-Sterling or Dollar-for-Dollar basis as applicable (with amounts
received in non-Sterling (or if applicable, non-Dollar) currencies to be converted by a Borrower to Sterling (or if applicable, Dollars) for purposes of this calculation based upon foreign exchange rates actually received, in the case of a
prepayment (or that would actually be received, in the case of a Commitment reduction) by a Borrower acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner in consultation with the Administrative Agent) within three Business Days of (in the
case of a prepayment of Advances) or automatically on the date of (in the case of a reduction of Commitments) receipt by the Consolidated Group of any Net Cash Proceeds (or in the case of clause (iv) below, commitments) referred to in this
paragraph (d): 
 (i) from 100.0% of the Net Cash Proceeds actually received by the Consolidated Group from the incurrence of
Borrowed Debt by such entity (excluding (A) intercompany debt of such entities, (B) borrowings (1) under the 2015 STERIS Credit Agreement in an amount up to $500,000,000 or (2) under the Existing STERIS Letter Agreement in an

indebtedness before or at maturity, to the extent that such refinanced Debt (x) is existing on the Initial Effective Date (it being understood that any Debt refinancing, renewing or replacing Existing Debt shall be deemed “Existing
Debt” for the purposes of the requirements otherwise set forth in this Agreement relating to Existing Debt), (y) of any person acquired after the Initial Effective Date by the Reporting Entity or any Subsidiary and existing at the time of
such acquisition (and not incurred in contemplation of such acquisition at the request of any Reporting Entity) or (z) assumed by the Reporting Entity or any Subsidiary in connection with an acquisition of assets and existing at the time of
such acquisition (and not incurred in contemplation 

  
 -40- 








 
of such acquisition at the request of the Reporting Entity), in each case, that does not increase the aggregate principal or commitment amount thereof (plus accrued unpaid interest and premium
thereon and underwriting discounts, fees, commission and expenses) and (I) indebtedness under the Bridge Facility); 

(ii) from 100.0% of the Net Cash Proceeds actually received from the issuance of any Equity Interests by the Consolidated Group
(other than (A) issuances pursuant to employee stock plans or other benefit or employee incentive arrangements, (B) issuances among the Consolidated Group or (C) issuances to the shareholders of Synergy as consideration for the
Acquisition); 
 (iii) from 100.0% of the Net Cash Proceeds actually received by the Consolidated Group from Specified Asset
Sales; and 
 (iv) in an amount equal to 100% of the committed amount of any (i) term loan facility or (ii) private
placement note purchase agreement made available to a member of the Consolidated Group that is (x) subject to conditions precedent to funding of the term loans or purchasing the notes thereunder that are, in respect of certainty of funding,
substantially equivalent to or more favorable to the Borrowers than the conditions set forth in this Agreement, (y) subject to restrictions on assignments of the term loans or private placement notes thereunder substantially similar to those
set forth in this Agreement and (z) entered into with financial institutions that are either (A) Lenders or an affiliate or approved fund of the Lenders, (B) Pre-Approved Lenders or (C) approved by the Borrowers (each such term
facility or private placement agreement, a “Qualifying Committed Facility”) (such reduction to occur upon the effectiveness of definitive documentation for such Qualifying Committed Facility). 

(v) In addition, STERIS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the cash confirmer to approve a reduction in
Facility commitments (1) in an aggregate principal amount equal to (A) the outstanding principal amount of any series of Existing STERIS Notes, upon the effectiveness of an amendment or waiver by the requisite holders thereof that permits
the Transactions (including the waiver of any put right with respect thereto) and on terms and conditions consistent with those in this Agreement (including the requirements of Section 5.01(m)) and satisfactory to STERIS and (B) the
outstanding principal amount of any Existing Synergy Notes upon the effectiveness of an amendment or waiver by the requisite holders thereof that permits the Transactions (including the waiver of any put rights with respect thereto) and on terms and
conditions consistent with those in this Agreement (including the requirements of Section 5.01(m)) and satisfactory to STERIS and (2) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the excess of any commitments over $250,000,000 under any new
revolving credit facility that is structured in a manner so as to permit the Transactions and that satisfies the criteria described in clauses (x), (y) and (z) of clause (iv)(ii) above. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions
in this Section 2.05(d)(v) shall not obligate STERIS to seek any amendments or waivers with respect to clause (1) of this Section 2.05(d)(v) or obtain a new revolving credit facility under clause (2) of this
Section 2.05(d)(v). 

  
 -41- 








 (vi) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.05(d) or any
other provision in any Loan Document to the contrary, in the case of any Net Cash Proceeds (x) of any sale (including Specified Asset Sales) by a Foreign Subsidiary or (y) any sale or issuance of Equity Interests or incurrence of Debt by a
Foreign Subsidiary, in each case giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to this Section 2.05(d), (A) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds that is required to be applied to repay Advances at the times provided in this
Section 2.05(d) shall be net of any additional Taxes paid, reasonably estimated by the Borrowers in good faith to be payable (pending a final determination of the amount of such Taxes by a Governmental Authority), or reserved against as a
result of repatriation of such Net Cash Proceeds to the United States and (B) if such Net Cash Proceeds are prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Cash
Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Advances or reduce Commitments at the times provided in this Section 2.05(d) but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable
local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Borrowers hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law
to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be immediately effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds will be promptly
(and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied to the repayment of Advances or reduction of Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.05(d) to the extent provided herein. 

If the Reporting Entity or any of its Subsidiaries receives proceeds that would otherwise constitute Net Cash Proceeds from any Specified
Asset Sale, then so long as at the time of receipt of such proceeds and at the proposed time of the reinvestment or commitment to reinvest such proceeds, no Default shall be continuing, the Reporting Entity or such Subsidiary may use, or commit to
use, any portion of such proceeds (the “Reinvestment Amount”) to acquire, construct, improve, upgrade or repair assets useful in the business of the Reporting Entity or its Subsidiaries or to consummate any business acquisition, and
in each case, the Reinvestment Amount shall only constitute Net Cash Proceeds to the extent (A) not so used (or committed to be used pursuant to a bona fide third-party contract) within the six-month period following receipt of such proceeds or
(B) if so committed to be used within such six-month period, not so used within the period specified in such contract. 
 Unless otherwise agreed by
the Lenders and the Borrowers, all mandatory prepayments or Commitment reductions shall be applied ratably between Tranche 1 and Tranche 2, provided that (1) any payment or reduction pursuant to clause (i) as a result of the issuance or
sale of private placement notes denominated in Dollars, clause (iv) as a result of a term loan commitment denominated in Dollars or clause (v) as a result of an amendment or waiver of the Existing STERIS Notes or a revolving commitment
denominated in Dollars, in each case, shall be applied first to reduce Tranche 2 prior to reducing Tranche 1 and (2) a term loan commitment denominated in Sterling shall be applied first to reduce Tranche 1 prior to reducing Tranche 2. All

Agent for the benefit of the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of the Advances outstanding to such Borrower on such date. 

SECTION 2.07 Interest on Advances. 

(a) Scheduled Interest. Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance made to it from the date of such
Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum: 
 (i) Base Rate
Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to time and (B) the Applicable Margin, payable in arrears quarterly on the
last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, during such periods and on the date such Advances are paid in full. 

(ii) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum
equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (A) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance, and (B) the Applicable Margin, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period
and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be
Converted or paid in full. 
 (b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to
Section 6.01(a), the Administrative Agent shall, upon the request of the Required Lenders, require each Borrower to pay interest (“Default Interest”), which amount shall accrue as of the date of occurrence of the Event of
Default, on (i) amounts that are overdue from such Borrower, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in Section 2.07(a)(i) or 2.07(a)(ii), at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to
be paid on such overdue amount pursuant to Section 2.07(a)(i) or 2.07(a)(ii) and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such

Base Rate Advances pursuant to Section 2.07(a)(i), or in the case of amounts due in Sterling, at a rate for short term borrowings of Sterling determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent, provided,
however, that following acceleration of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01, Default Interest shall accrue and be payable hereunder whether or not previously required by the Administrative Agent. 

  
 -43- 








 (c) Additional Interest on Eurocurrency Rate Advances. The applicable Borrower shall pay
to each Lender, so long as and to the extent such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency
Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance of such Lender made to such Borrower that is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate
per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (a) the Eurocurrency Rate for the applicable Interest Period for such Advance from (b) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurocurrency Rate by a percentage equal to 100%
minus the Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Advance. Such Lender shall as soon as practicable provide notice to the Administrative Agent and the
Borrowers of any such additional interest arising in connection with such Advance, which notice shall be conclusive and binding, absent demonstrable error. 

SECTION 2.08 Interest Rate Determination. 

(a) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by
the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.07(a)(i) or 2.07(a)(ii). 
 (b) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances,
(i) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent demonstrable error) that adequate and reasonable means (including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate) do not exist
for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period or (ii) the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that (x) they are unable to obtain matching deposits in the London inter-bank market at or about 11:00 A.M.
(London time) on the second Business Day before (or in the case of Borrowings in Sterling, on the Business Day of) the making of a Borrowing in sufficient amounts to fund their respective Advances as a part of such Borrowing during its Interest
Period or (y) the Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Required Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such
Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the applicable Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (A) such Borrower will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, either, in the case of Dollar
denominated Advances, (w) prepay such Advances or (x) Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances or, in the case of Sterling denominated Advances, (y) prepay such Advances or (z) consent to the maintenance of such Advances at
a rate for short term borrowings of Sterling determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent and (B) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Dollar denominated Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances
shall be suspended, and any applicable Sterling denominated Advances shall be made and maintained at a rate for short term borrowings of Sterling determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent, until the Administrative
Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 

  
 -44- 








 (c) If a Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency
Rate Advances made to such Borrower in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify such Borrower and the Lenders and such
Eurocurrency Rate Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into Base Rate Advances, or in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Sterling, automatically Convert to a new
Eurocurrency Rate Advance with an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d) [Reserved]. 

(e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance denominated in Dollars
will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance (unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent) and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Dollar
denominated Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended. 
 SECTION 2.09 Optional Conversion of Advances. Each
Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion (or in the case of a Conversion into Base Rate Advances,
the Business Day prior) and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.08 and 2.12, Convert all Advances denominated in Dollars made to such Borrower of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided,
however, that any Conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate
Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.01 and no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion
shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the duration
of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower giving such notice. 

SECTION 2.10 Optional Prepayments of Advances. A Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent stating the
proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the proposed prepayment, given not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York time) on the date (which date shall be a Business Day) of such proposed prepayment, in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate
Advances, and not later than 10:00 A.M. (Local Time) at least two Business Days prior to the date of such proposed prepayment, in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, and if such notice is given, such Borrower shall,
prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing made to such Borrower in whole or ratably in part, and in the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing, together with accrued interest to the date of such
prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of the Borrowing Minimum or a Borrowing Multiple in excess 

  
 -45- 








 
thereof and (ii) if any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance is made on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, such Borrower shall also
pay any amount owing pursuant to Section 9.04(c); and provided, further, that, subject to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding proviso, any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of
other credit facilities or the consummation of a specific transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by such Borrower if such condition is not satisfied. 

SECTION 2.11 Increased Costs. 

(a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the
compliance with any directive, guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority including, without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force
of law), in each case after the date hereof (or with respect to any Lender (or the Administrative Agent), if later, the date on which such Lender (or the Administrative Agent) becomes a Lender (or the Administrative Agent)), there shall be any
increase in the cost to any Lender or the Administrative Agent of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Advances (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.11 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes as to which such
Lender is indemnified under Section 2.14, (ii) Excluded Taxes, or (iii) Other Taxes), then the Reporting Entity shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent, if applicable), pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender (or for its own account, if applicable) additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Administrative Agent for
such increased cost. A certificate describing such increased costs in reasonable detail delivered to the Reporting Entity shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. 

(b) If any Lender reasonably determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any directive, guideline or request from any central
bank or other governmental authority including, without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case promulgated or given after the date hereof (or
with respect to any Lender, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender), affects or would affect the amount of capital, insurance or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such
Lender and that the amount of such capital, insurance or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, the Borrowers shall, from time to time upon demand
by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances,
to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital, insurance or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s Advances or commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. 

  
 -46- 








 (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.11 to the contrary, for purposes of this
Section 2.11, (A) the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations issued thereunder or in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, and (B) all requests, rules, guidelines and
directions promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any similar or successor agency, or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case, pursuant to Basel III) shall be
deemed to have been enacted following the date hereof (or with respect to any Lender, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender); provided that no Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.11(c) unless
such Lender is making corresponding demands on similarly situated borrowers in comparable credit facilities to which such Lender is a party. 

SECTION 2.12 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, subject to Section 3.02(i), with respect to
Dollar denominated Advances, (a) if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental
authority, including without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority, asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make
Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances hereunder, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance of such Lender will automatically, upon such notification, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the
obligation of such Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to Convert Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and such Lender that the circumstances causing such
suspension no longer exist and (b) if Lenders constituting the Required Lenders so notify the Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance of each Lender will automatically, upon such notification, Convert into a Base Rate
Advance and (ii) the obligation of each Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to Convert Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and each Lender that the
circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, subject to Section 3.02(i), if any of the circumstances set forth in clauses (a) or (b) above arise with respect to Advances
denominated in Sterling, such Sterling denominated Advances shall be made or maintained, as applicable, at a rate for short term borrowings of Sterling determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 2.13 Payments and Computations. 

(a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under this Agreement not later than 11:00 A.M. (Local Time) on the day when
due in Sterling (or (i) with respect to principal, interest or breakage indemnity due in respect of Advances denominated in Dollars, in Dollars and (ii) with respect to other payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.11 or
9.04 that are invoiced in a currency other than Sterling shall be payable in the currency so invoiced) to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly
thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or commitment fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c), 2.07(c), 2.11, 2.12(i) (or if applicable


  
 -47- 








 
the last sentence of Section 2.12), 2.14, 2.15 or 9.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other
amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the
information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(f), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest
assigned thereby to the assignor for amounts which have accrued to but excluding the effective date of such assignment and to the assignee for amounts which have accrued from and after the effective date of such assignment. All payments to be made
by each Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. 
 (b) Each Borrower
hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender by such Borrower is not made when due hereunder, to charge from time to time against any or all of such Borrower’s accounts with such Lender any amount so due,
unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such Lender. 
 (c) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate or with respect to
any Advances denominated in Sterling shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 days or, other than with respect to Sterling, 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate
(other than with respect to any Advances denominated in Sterling) or the Federal Funds Rate (other than determinations of the Base Rate made at any time by reference to the Federal Funds Rate), and of commitment fees and ticking fees shall be made
by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or such fees are payable. Each
determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. 

(d) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of
interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. 

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon
such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender
shall repay to the Administrative Agent, following prompt notice thereof, forthwith 

  
 -48- 








 
on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such
amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate, or in the case of amounts in Sterling, at a rate for short term borrowings of Sterling determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 2.14 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes, excluding, in the case of each Lender and each Agent, (i) Taxes imposed on (or measured by) its overall net income (however denominated), franchise Taxes, and branch profits
Taxes, in each case only to the extent imposed by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, is organized, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof)
of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or such Lender’s or such Agent’s principal office, or as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender or such Agent and the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (other than
connections arising from such Lender or such Agent having executed, delivered, become a party to, performed its obligations under, received payments under, received or perfected a security interest under, engaged in any other transaction pursuant to
or enforced any Loan Document, or sold or assigned an interest in any Advance or Loan Document), (ii) backup withholding Tax imposed by the United States on payments by any Loan Party to any Lender, (iii) any Tax that is imposed by the
United States by reason of such recipient’s failure to comply with Section 2.14(f), (iv) any U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to a law in effect at the time a Lender becomes a party to this Agreement or acquires an interest in
the Advance (or designates a new Applicable Lending Office), except to the extent that such Lender (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, immediately before the designation of a new Applicable Lending Office or assignment, to receive additional
amounts from the Loan Party with respect to such withholding Tax pursuant to this Section 2.14, and (v) any taxes imposed under FATCA, including as a result of such recipient’s failure to comply with Section 2.14(f)(iii) (all
such excluded Taxes in respect of payments under any Loan Document being hereinafter referred to as “Excluded Taxes”). If the applicable Withholding Agent shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of
any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Lender or any Agent, (A) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions and (B) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation
authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. If a Loan Party shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Taxes (other than (i) Taxes required to be deducted by way of a Tax Deduction in which case the provisions of
Section 2.14(g) shall apply or (ii) Excluded Taxes) from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Lender or any Agent, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after
making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions
been made. 
 (b) In addition, without duplication of any other obligation set forth in this Section 2.14, the Reporting Entity shall,
or shall cause the applicable Loan Party to, pay to the 

  
 -49- 








 
relevant Governmental Authority any present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording, filing Taxes and any other similar Taxes, that arise from any payment made by it under
any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document, except to the extent such Taxes are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to a sale, an assignment or the
designation of a new Applicable Lending Office (other than an assignment or designation made pursuant to Section 2.20) (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 

(c) Without duplication of any other obligation set forth in this Section 2.14, the Reporting Entity shall, or shall cause the applicable
Loan Party to, indemnify each Lender and each Agent for the full amount of Taxes (other than (i) withholding Tax imposed by United Kingdom legislation which is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.14(g) or would have
been so compensated but was not solely because one of the exclusions in Section 2.14(g)(iv) applied; (ii) any Excluded Taxes or (iii) for the avoidance of doubt, any Taxes which were compensated by an increased payment under
Section 2.14(a)) and Other Taxes imposed on, payable or paid by such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, in respect of Advances made to any Loan Party and any liability (including, without limitation, penalties, interest and expenses)
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or such Agent, as
the case may be, makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Reporting Entity by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or
on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. 
 (d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent,
within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan
Parties to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.07(h) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the
Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A
certificate describing in reasonable detail the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off
and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d).

 (e) As soon as practicable after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes for which any Loan Party is responsible under this
Section 2.14, such Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address as specified pursuant to Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 

  
 -50- 








 (f) Except in connection with withholding tax imposed by United Kingdom legislation (to which the
provisions of Section 2.14(g) apply): 
 (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with
respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed
documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the 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 applicable
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such 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 2.14(f)(ii) and (iii) 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: (x) any Lender that is a US Person shall deliver to the applicable 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 such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; and (y) any Lender that is not a US Person (a “Non-US
Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the applicable 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 Non-US
Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(A) in the case of a Non-US 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 Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E 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 Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E 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; 

(B) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(C) in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
the Internal Revenue 

  
 -51- 








 
Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 to the effect that such Non-US 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 applicable Borrower within the 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 originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or 

(D) to the extent a Non-US Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form
W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or Exhibit C-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if
the Non-US Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-US Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-US Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit
C-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan 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 the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or the 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 such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Borrower or the
Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, 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 the purposes
of this clause 2.14(f)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 (g) United
Kingdom Tax Gross-Up. 
 (i) Each Loan Party shall make all payments to be made by it without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is
required by law. 
 (ii) The Reporting Entity shall promptly upon becoming aware that a Loan Party must make a Tax Deduction (or that there
is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Administrative Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the
Administrative Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Reporting Entity and such Loan Party. 

  
 -52- 








 (iii) If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by a Loan Party, the amount of the
payment due from such Loan Party shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required. 

(iv) A payment shall not be increased under paragraph (iii) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed by the United
Kingdom, if on the date on which the payment falls due the payment is a payment of yearly interest and: 
 (A) the payment
could have been made to the relevant Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became
a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority; or 

(B) the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the Loan Party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could
have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under this Section 2.14(g); or 

(C) the relevant Lender is a Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (i)(2) of the definition of Qualifying Lender and:

 (1) an officer of H.M. Revenue & Customs has given (and not revoked) a direction (a
“Direction”) under section 931 of the ITA which relates to the payment and that Lender has received from the Borrower making the payment a certified copy of that Direction; and 

(2) the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if that Direction had not been made; or 

(D) the relevant Lender is a Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (i)(2) of the definition of Qualifying Lender and:

 (1) the Lender has not given a Tax Confirmation to the relevant Borrower; and 

(2) the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a Tax Confirmation to the
relevant Borrower, on the basis that the Tax Confirmation would have enabled the relevant Borrower to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the ITA. 

  
 -53- 








 (v) If a Loan Party is required to make a Tax Deduction, such Loan Party shall make such Tax
Deduction and any payment required in connection with such Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law. 

(vi) Within thirty days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with such Tax Deduction, the Loan Party making
such Tax Deduction shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for the Lender entitled to the payment a statement under section 975 of the ITA or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Lender that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as
applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority. 
 (vii) (A) Subject to (B) below, a Treaty Lender and
each Loan Party which makes a payment to which such Treaty Lender is entitled shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for such Loan Party to obtain authorization to make such payment without a Tax Deduction. 

(B) (1) A Treaty Lender which is a Lender on the date on which this Agreement is entered into and which (x) holds a passport under
the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence opposite its name on Schedule I; and 

(2) A New Lender that (x) is a Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such
scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in the Assignment and Acceptance which it executes, 

and having done so, that Lender shall be under no obligation pursuant to paragraph (vii)(A), or for the avoidance of doubt,
Section 2.14(f), above. 
 (viii) If a Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in
accordance with paragraph (g)(vii) above and: 
 (A) a Borrower making a payment to such Lender has not made a Borrower DTTP
Filing in respect of such Lender; or 
 (B) a Borrower making a payment to such Lender has made a Borrower DTTP Filing in
respect of such Lender but: 
 (1) such Borrower DTTP Filing has been rejected by HM Revenue & Customs; or 

(2) HM Revenue & Customs has not given such Borrower authority to make payments to such Lender without Tax Deduction
within 60 days of the date of such Borrower DTTP Filing; 

  
 -54- 








 and in each case, such Borrower has notified that Lender in writing of either (1) or
(2) above, then such Lender and such Borrower shall cooperate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for such Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without a Tax Deduction. 

(ix) If a Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (g)(vii) above,
no Loan Party shall make a Borrower DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment(s) or its participation in any Loan unless the Lender otherwise agrees. 

(x) A Borrower shall, promptly on making a Borrower DTTP Filing, deliver a copy of that Borrower DTTP Filing to the Administrative Agent for
delivery to the relevant Lender. 
 (xi) Each Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall
indicate in the Assignment and Acceptance which it executes on becoming a party, and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any Loan Party, which of the following categories it falls in: 

(A) not a Qualifying Lender 

(B) a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or 

(C) a Treaty Lender. 

If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 2.14(g)(xi) then such New Lender shall be treated for the
purposes of this Agreement (including by each Loan Party) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category applies (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall
inform the Loan Party). For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Acceptance shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 2.14(g)(xi). 

(xii) A UK Non-Bank Lender which becomes a party on the day on which this Agreement is entered into gives a Tax Confirmation to the relevant
Borrower by entry into this Agreement. 
 (xiii) A UK Non-Bank Lender shall promptly notify the relevant Borrower and the Administrative
Agent if there is any change in the position from that set forth in the Tax Confirmation. 
 (h) 

(i) Each party hereto may make any deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with such deduction, and
no party hereto shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for such deduction; and 

  
 -55- 








 (ii) Each party hereto shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a deduction as
required by FATCA (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such deduction), notify the party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition, shall notify the Reporting Entity and the Administrative Agent and the Administrative
Agent shall notify the other Lenders. 
 (i) In the event that an additional payment is made under Section 2.14(a) or 2.14(c) for the
account of any Lender and such Lender, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, determines that it has received a refund of any tax paid or payable by it in respect of or calculated with reference to the deduction or withholding giving rise
to such additional payment, such Lender shall, to the extent that it reasonably determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such refund, pay to the applicable Borrower such amount as such Lender shall, in its
reasonable discretion exercised in good faith, have determined is attributable to such deduction or withholding and will leave such Lender (after such payment) in no worse position than it would have been had such Borrower not been required to make
such deduction or withholding. Nothing contained in this Section 2.14(i) shall (i) interfere with the right of a Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit or (ii) oblige any Lender to disclose any information
relating to its tax returns, tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or (iii) require any Lender to take or refrain from taking any action that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other credits, reliefs, remissions or
repayments to which it may be entitled. 
 (j) Each participant of an interest in any Commitment, Advance or Loan Document hereunder shall
be entitled to the benefits of this Section 2.14 (subject to the requirements and limitations herein) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment hereunder; provided that such participant
(A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 as if it were an assignee hereunder; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under this Section 2.14 with respect to any participation, than its
participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, 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. 

(k) Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.14 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 the Loan Documents. 

(l) For purposes of this Section 2.14, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 

SECTION 2.15 Sharing of Payments, Etc. Subject to Section 2.19 in the case of a Defaulting Lender, if any Lender shall obtain
any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it 

  
 -56- 








 
(other than pursuant to Section 2.02(c), 2.07(c), 2.11, 2.12(a), 2.14 or 9.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such
Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however,
that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such
recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (b) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any
interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the applicable Borrower in the amount of such
participation. The provisions of this Section 2.15 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement as in effect from time to time or (B) any
payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances to any assignee or participant permitted hereunder. 

SECTION 2.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available, and each Borrower agrees that it shall apply such
proceeds, solely towards Certain Funds Purposes. 
 SECTION 2.17 Evidence of Debt. The Register maintained by the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(g) shall include (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder by each Borrower, the Type and Class of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable
thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and
(iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from each Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof. 

Entries made reasonably and in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be
prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender under this Agreement, absent demonstrable error; provided, however, that the
failure of the Administrative Agent to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit, expand or otherwise affect the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement. 

SECTION 2.18 [Reserved]. 

  
 -57- 








 SECTION 2.19 Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions
shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (it being understood that the determination of whether a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender shall be made as described in Section 2.19(b)): 

(i) such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to Section 2.04(a); 

(ii) such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing under Section 2.04(b) to the extent it is a
Defaulting Lender on the date such fee would otherwise be payable and such fee would be attributable to its Commitment (for the avoidance of doubt fees attributable to funded Advances shall be payable); 

(iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and
waivers hereunder, and the Commitment and the outstanding Advances of such Lender hereunder will not be taken into account in determining whether the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment or waiver
(and the definition of “Required Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the Commitment of
such Defaulting Lender, extend the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or
amount of interest on any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and 

(iv) the Reporting Entity may, or may cause the applicable Borrower to, at its sole expense and effort, require such Defaulting
Lender to assign and delegate its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07. 
 (b) If the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the 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, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on
behalf of a Borrower while such 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 Non-Defaulting Lender
will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

(c) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of such
Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 6.01 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.05 shall be applied at such time or times


  
 -58- 








 
as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the applicable Borrower may request (so long as no
Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent; third,
as the Reporting Entity may request, 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 Advances under this Agreement; fourth, to the
payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this
Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to a Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach
of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. 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 otherwise pursuant to this Section 2.19(c) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

SECTION 2.20 Mitigation. 

(a) Each Lender shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge that will
result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such Lender’s good faith judgment, otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender) to mitigate or avoid, (i) any obligation by any Loan Party to pay any amount
pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.14 or (ii) the occurrence of any circumstance described in Section 2.12 (and, if any Lender has given notice of any such event described in clause (i) or (ii) above and thereafter such event
ceases to exist, such Lender shall promptly so notify such Loan Party and the Administrative Agent). In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender will (at the request of such Loan Party) designate a different funding office if, in the judgment of
such Lender, such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to such Loan Party of) any event described in clause (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence and such designation will not, in such Lender’s good faith judgment, be otherwise
materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Reporting Entity hereby agrees to, or to cause the applicable Loan Party to, pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation. 

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender fails to notify the applicable Borrower of any event or circumstance
which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to Section 2.11 within 180 days after such Lender obtains knowledge of such event or circumstance, then such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation from such Borrower for any amount
arising prior to the date which is 180 days before the date on which such Lender notifies such Borrower of such event or circumstance. 

  
 -59- 








 SECTION 2.21 VAT. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.14 to the contrary: 

(a) All amounts expressed to be payable under a Loan Document by any Loan Party to a Lender Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the
consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender Party to
any Loan Party under a Loan Document and such Lender Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Loan Party must pay to such Lender Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for
such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Lender Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Loan Party). 

(b) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Lender Party (the
“Recipient”) under a Loan Document, and any Loan Party other than the Recipient (the “Relevant Party”) is required by the terms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the
Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration): 
 (i) (where
the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient
must (where this paragraph (i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable
on that supply; and 
 (ii) (where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT)
the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or
repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT. 
 (c) Where a Loan Document requires any Loan Party to reimburse or
indemnify a Lender Party for any cost or expense, that Loan Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Lender Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that
such Lender Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority. 

(d) Any reference in this Section 2.21 to any Loan Party shall, at any time when such Loan Party is treated as a member of a group for
VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the Person who is treated as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under the grouping rules (as provided for in Article 11 of
Council Directive 2006/112/EC or as implemented by a European Member State, or equivalent provisions in any other jurisdiction). 
 (e) In
relation to any supply made by a Lender Party to any Loan Party under a Loan Document, if reasonably requested by such Lender Party, that Loan Party must promptly 

  
 -60- 








 
provide such Lender Party with details of that Loan Party’s VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Lender Party’s VAT reporting
requirements in relation to such supply.

with the facts, or where appropriate, do not omit anything likely to affect the import of such information and (ii) contain all the material terms of the Scheme, except to the extent any provision of such documents is permitted to be waived,
amended or varied by, or the extent that any such waiver, amendment or variation is not otherwise prohibited under Section 5.01(k).

or variation is not otherwise prohibited under Section 5.01(k). 
 (w) Immediately after the consummation of the Transactions to occur
on the Closing Date, including the making of each Advance to be made on the Closing Date and the application of the proceeds of such Advances, (a) the fair value of the assets of the Reporting Entity and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis
will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, (b) the present fair saleable value of the assets of the Reporting Entity and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will be greater than the amount that will be
required to pay the probable liability on its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured, (c) the Reporting Entity and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis will be able to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured and (d) the Reporting Entity and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will not have

 Notwithstanding anything else herein, the Borrowers may elect by notice to
the Administrative Agent not to make any representation and warranty in this Section 4.01 on the Closing Date or the Delayed Draw Date. In the event a Borrower makes such election, such representation and warranty shall not be required to be
made on the Closing Date or the Delayed Draw Date, as applicable, and, following the funding of the applicable Advances (including any Supplemental Advances) there shall exist an Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.01(b)(ii).

 ARTICLE V 

COVENANTS 

SECTION 5.01 Affirmative Covenants. So long as any Advance shall remain unpaid or any Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder,
the Reporting Entity will: 
 (a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Comply, and cause each member of the Consolidated Group to comply, with
all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders (such compliance to include, without limitation, compliance with ERISA and Environmental Laws), except to the extent that the failure to so comply, either individually or in the aggregate, would not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) Payment of Taxes, Etc. Pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and
discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, all Taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon a member of the Consolidated Group or upon the income, profits or property of a member of the Consolidated Group, in each
case except to the extent that (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings or (ii) the failure to pay such Taxes, assessments and charges, either individually or in the
aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) Maintenance of Insurance. Maintain, and cause
each member of the Consolidated Group to maintain, insurance with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations (or pursuant to self-insurance arrangements) in such amounts and covering such risks as is usually carried by companies
engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in the same general areas in which any member of the Consolidated Group operates. 

(d) Preservation of Existence, Etc. Do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its and
each other Loan Party’s (i) existence and (ii) rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that any Loan Party may consummate any merger or consolidation permitted under Section 5.02(b); and
provided, further, that no Loan Party shall be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the management of the Borrowers shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of
such Loan Party and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Lenders. 
 (e) Visitation Rights. At
any reasonable time and from time to time during normal business hours (but not more than once annually if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), upon reasonable notice to the Borrowers, permit the Administrative Agent or any of the
Lenders, or any agents or representatives thereof, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records and books of account, and visit the properties, of the Consolidated Group, and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the
Consolidated Group with any of the members of the senior treasury staff of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party. 

  
 -72- 








 (f) Keeping of Books. Keep, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to keep, proper books of
record and account, in which full and correct entries shall be made of all financial transactions and the assets and business of the Consolidated Group sufficient to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. 

(g) Maintenance of Properties, Etc. Cause all of its and the Consolidated Group’s properties that are used or useful in the
conduct of its business or the business of any member of the Consolidated Group to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment, and cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals,
replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Borrowers may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times, except, in each case,
where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (h) Guaranties. 

(x) Cause (i) subject to clause (y) below, Synergy and its Material Subsidiaries organized in England and Wales,
(ii) on or prior to the Closing Date, US HoldCo, US Parent and US AcquisitionCo and (iii) from time to time after the Effective Date, each other Material Subsidiary of the Reporting Entity (other than Synergy and its Subsidiaries) that is

 (y) In no event shall Synergy or its Material Subsidiaries organized in England and Wales be required to provide a
guaranty hereunder prior to January 15, 2016, and no such guaranty will be required on or at any time after such date if New HoldCo is treated as a United States corporation for United States federal tax purposes at such time. If New HoldCo is
treated as a United States corporation for United States federal tax purposes after any such guarantees from Synergy or its Material Subsidiaries are provided, each such guarantee shall terminate automatically and each such guarantee will be void ab
initio. 
 (i) Transactions with Affiliates. Conduct, and cause each member of the Consolidated Group to conduct, all material
transactions otherwise permitted under this Agreement with any of their Affiliates (excluding the members of the Consolidated Group) on terms that are fair and reasonable and no less favorable to the Reporting Entity or such Subsidiary than it would
obtain in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate; provided that the restrictions of this Section 5.01(i) shall not apply to the following: 

(i) the payment of dividends or other distributions (whether in cash, securities or other property) with respect to any Equity
Interests in a member of the Consolidated Group, or any payment (whether in cash, securities or other property), including any sinking fund or similar deposit, on account of the purchase, redemption, retirement, acquisition, cancellation or
termination of any such Equity Interests in such Person or any option, warrant or other right to acquire any such Equity Interests in such Person; 

  
 -73-

date hereof and set forth in Schedule 5.01(i);

or other assets and services entered into in the ordinary course of business and in a manner consistent with past practices;

Agent (for delivery to the Lenders) a letter addressed to the board of directors of the Borrowers (or the board of directors of the relevant member of the Consolidated Group) from an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm that is in the
good faith determination of the Borrowers qualified to render such letter, which letter states that such transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Borrowers or the relevant member of the Consolidated Group, as applicable, than would
be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate. 
 (j) Reporting Requirements.
Furnish to the Administrative Agent for further distribution to the Lenders: 
 (i) within 45 days after the end of each of

demonstrate compliance with Section 5.03;

Responsible Officer of a Borrower shall have obtained knowledge of the occurrence of each Default continuing on the date of such statement, a statement of the Chief Financial Officer, the Controller or the Treasurer of the applicable Borrower

Offer Document is issued and dispatched as soon as is reasonably practicable and in any event within 28 days (or such longer period as may be agreed with the Panel) after the issuance of a Press Release or Offer Press Announcement, as applicable
unless, during that period New HoldCo has elected to convert the Synergy Acquisition from a Scheme to a Takeover Offer, or vice versa (in which case the Scheme Circular or Takeover Offer Document, as applicable shall be issued and dispatched as soon

or dispensations granted by the Panel) and all other applicable laws and regulations in relation to any Takeover Offer or Scheme. 

(iv) Except as consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing and save to the extent that following the issue of a Press
Release or an Offer Press Announcement New HoldCo elects to proceed with the Synergy Acquisition by way of Takeover Offer or Scheme respectively, ensure that (i) if the Synergy Acquisition is effected by way of a Scheme, the Scheme Circular
corresponds in all material respects to the terms and conditions of the Scheme as contained in the Press Release to which it relates or (ii) if the Synergy Acquisition is effected by way of a Takeover Offer, the Takeover Offer Document

(including pursuant to a Takeover Offer) at a price that is higher than the price per Synergy Share stated in the Original Press Release, unless such increase in price is not materially adverse to the interests of the Lenders (or where the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent has been given); provided, however, that any increase in the Cash Consideration composed of Equity Interests of New HoldCo shall not be deemed to be materially adverse to the interests of the
Lenders. 
 (vii) Except as consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing, not amend or waive (i) any term of the
Scheme Documents or the Takeover Offer Documents, as applicable, in a manner materially adverse to the interests of the Lenders from those in the Original Press Release, as the case may be, or (ii) if the Synergy Acquisition is proceeding as a

(in each case, upon such documents or agreements being entered into by a member of the Consolidated Group), and all other material announcements and documents published by New HoldCo or delivered by New HoldCo to the Panel pursuant to the Takeover
Offer or Scheme (other than the cash confirmation) and all legally binding agreements entered into by New HoldCo in connection with a Takeover Offer or Scheme, in each case to the extent New HoldCo, acting reasonably, anticipates they will be
material to the interests of the Lenders in connection with the Transactions, except to the extent it is prohibited by legal (including contractual) or regulatory obligations from doing so. 

(xi) In the event that a Scheme is switched to a Takeover Offer or vice versa, (which New HoldCo shall be entitled to do on
multiple occasions; provided that it complies with the terms of this Agreement), except as consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing, ensure that (A) where the Synergy Acquisition is then proceeding by way of a Takeover Offer,
the terms and conditions contained in the Offer Document include the Acceptance Condition and (B) the conditions to be satisfied in connection with the Synergy Acquisition and contained in the Offer Documents or the Scheme Documents (whichever

which a stay of enforcement of such judgment or order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect; provided, however, that, for purposes of determining whether an Event of Default has occurred under this Section

insurer, which shall be rated at least “A” by A.M. Best Company, has been notified of, and has not disputed the claim made for payment of, such judgment or order; or

termination of a Multiemployer Plan; or 
 (i) this Agreement (including the Guaranty set forth in Article VIII) shall cease to be valid and

Lenders, by notice to the Borrowers, declare the obligation of each Lender to make Advances to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and (ii) shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Required Lenders, by
notice to the Borrowers, declare the Advances, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Advances, all such interest and all such amounts shall become and be forthwith due
and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers; provided, however, (but for the avoidance of doubt, always subject to Section 3.04), that

Agreement; 
 (iii) it is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Reporting Entity and its
Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis; and 
 (iv) it is not a breach of Section 5.01(h) or 5.01(m). 

If the relevant circumstances are continuing on or after the Clean-up Date, there shall be a breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant or Event
of Default, as the case may be, notwithstanding the above. 
 ARTICLE VII 

THE AGENTS 

SECTION 7.01 Authorization and Action. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the
Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof,
together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and neither the Borrowers nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as
a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended
to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship
between contracting parties. 
 SECTION 7.02 Administrative Agent Individually. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent
hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise
expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act
as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any
duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 
 SECTION 7.03 Duties of Administrative Agent; Exculpatory Provisions. The
Administrative Agent shall have no duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein 

  
 -89- 








 
and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for
herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary
to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that 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; and 
 (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or
any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with
the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in
Sections 6.01 and 9.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed not to have
knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers or a Lender. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 7.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon,
and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed
by it to be 

  
 -90- 








 
genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person or Persons. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and
believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction
of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Advance. The Administrative
Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel,
accountants or experts. 
 SECTION 7.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers hereunder or any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The 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 Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-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. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any
sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents. 

SECTION 7.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice
of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States.
If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the
Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth
above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. 

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required
Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrowers and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrowers, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have
been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless
become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. 

  
 -91- 








 (c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable)
(1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or
removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders
appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. 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 (other than as provided in Section 2.14(k) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation
Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged
therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by each Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such successor. After the
retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article VII and Section 9.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed
Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 7.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each
Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate,
continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

SECTION 7.08 [Reserved.] 

SECTION 7.09 Other Agents. None of the Lenders identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as an
“arranger,” “book runner,” “syndication agent” or “documentation agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all
Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders
so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 

  
 -92- 








 ARTICLE VIII 

GUARANTY 

SECTION 8.01 Guaranty. Subject to Section 5.01(h)(y), each Guarantor, on a joint and several basis, absolutely,
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lender Parties (defined below) (the “Guaranty”), as a guarantee of payment and not merely as a guarantee of collection, prompt
payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of all existing and future indebtedness and liabilities, whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, contract causes
of action, costs, expenses or otherwise, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, voluntary or involuntary, of the Borrowers to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (collectively the “Lender
Parties”) arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including all renewals, extensions and modifications thereof (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). This Guaranty shall not be affected by the
genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection or extent of any collateral therefor,
or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty (other than payment in full in cash). 

SECTION 8.02 No Termination. Except as permitted under Section 8.08, this Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty
of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable) and any other amounts payable under this
Guaranty are indefeasibly paid and performed in full and the Commitments have terminated. 
 SECTION 8.03 Waiver by the
Guarantors. Each Guarantor waives notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty and of the extension or continuation of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof. Each Guarantor further waives presentment, protest, notice, dishonor or default,
demand for payment and any other notices to which the Guarantor might otherwise be entitled other than any notice required hereunder. 

SECTION 8.04 Subrogation. No Guarantor shall exercise any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification or
contribution, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Lender Parties or any similar right with respect to any payment it makes under this Guaranty with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations until all of the Guaranteed Obligations
(other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable) have been paid in full in cash and the Commitments have terminated. If any amount is paid to the Guarantor in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall
be held in trust for the benefit of the Lender Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Lender Parties to reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 

SECTION 8.05 Waiver of Defenses. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and
unconditional irrespective of, and to the extent not 

  
 -93- 








 
prohibited by applicable law, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following: 

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability against the Borrowers of this Agreement or any agreement or other instrument relating thereto; 

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other
obligation of the Borrowers under or in respect of this Agreement or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Agreement, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the
extension of additional credit to the Borrowers or any other member of the Consolidated Group or otherwise; 
 (c) any taking, exchange,
release or non-perfection of any collateral or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(d) any manner of application of collateral, if any, or assets, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any
manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral or other assets for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (e) any change,
restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of a Borrower or other member of the Consolidated Group; 
 (f) any
failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to disclose to a Guarantor any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of the Borrowers now or hereafter known to
the Administrative Agent or such Lender (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to disclose such information); 

(g) the release or reduction of liability of any other Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; or

 (h) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any
representation by the Administrative Agent or any Lender that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety (other than defense of payment in full in cash). 

This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is
rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Lender Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of a Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 

SECTION 8.06 Exhaustion of Other Remedies Not Required. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are those of primary obligor,
and not merely as surety. Each Guarantor waives diligence by the Lender Parties and action on delinquency in respect of the 

  
 -94- 








 
Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, including, without limitation, any provision of law requiring the Lender Parties to exhaust any right or remedy or to take any action against a
Borrower, any other guarantor or any other Person or property before enforcing this Guaranty against such Guarantor. 
 SECTION 8.07
Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed, upon any action or proceeding, of a Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by the
Guarantors immediately upon demand by the Administrative Agent as and to the extent that the Administrative Agent has the right to demand such amounts pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof. 

SECTION 8.08 Release of Guarantees. 

(a) If after the Closing Date, New HoldCo receives a credit rating of Baa3 or higher by Moody’s (with stable or better outlook) and BBB-
or higher by Standard and Poor’s (with stable or better outlook) at any time, each Guarantor (other than STERIS and New HoldCo) shall automatically without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party be released from this
Guaranty (for so long as such ratings are maintained at such levels or higher) except to the extent that any such entity remains an obligor in respect of any Existing STERIS Notes or other Material Indebtedness, in which case the Guaranty of such
entity shall remain in effect until such indebtedness is repaid or such entity shall cease to be a guarantor thereof. 
 (b) A Guarantor
(other than STERIS and New HoldCo) shall automatically without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party be released from its obligations hereunder (i) upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement
as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Reporting Entity, (ii) at such time that such Guarantor is no longer (x) a Material Subsidiary of STERIS that is a Domestic Subsidiary or (y) a Material Subsidiary
of Synergy that is organized under the laws of England and Wales; provided that if the Reporting Entity desires such entity to remain a Guarantor, the Reporting Entity shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing and such entity shall remain a
Guarantor, or (iii) upon the occurrence of the applicable circumstances set forth in Section 5.01(h)(y), in which case the applicable guarantee will be void ab initio as set forth therein. 

(c) In connection with any release pursuant to this Section 8.08, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Guarantor, at
such Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 8.08 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the
Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 8.09 Guaranty Limitations. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum
liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable foreign, federal and state bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership laws, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the
Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this guarantee and each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. This Guaranty does not 

  
 -95- 








 
apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this Guaranty constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of section 678 and 679 of the Companies Act 2006 and, with
respect to any Person that becomes a Guarantor after the date of this Agreement, shall be subject to any limitations set forth in the joinder hereto pursuant to which such Person shall become a Guarantor. 

ARTICLE IX 

MISCELLANEOUS 

SECTION 9.01 Amendments, Etc. 

(a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor consent to any departure by a Loan Party therefrom, shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders and the Loan Parties and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing, do any of the following: 

(i) waive any of the conditions specified in Section 3.01, 3.02 or 3.03 unless signed by each Lender directly and
adversely affected thereby; 
 (ii) increase or extend the Commitments of a Lender or subject a Lender to any additional
obligations, unless signed by such Lender; 
 (iii) reduce the principal of, or stated rate of interest on, the Advances, the
stated rate at which any fees hereunder are calculated or any other amounts payable hereunder, unless signed by each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to
amend the definition of “Default Interest” or to waive any obligation of a Borrower to pay Default Interest; 

(iv) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable
hereunder, unless signed by each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; 
 (v) change the percentage of the
Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Advances, or the number of Lenders, that, in each case, shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, unless signed by all Lenders; 

(vi) amend this Section 9.01, unless signed by all Lenders; or 

  
 -96- 








 (vii) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty
(except as contemplated by Section 8.08) unless signed by all Lenders, 
 and provided, further, that no amendment, waiver or consent
shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may amend any Loan Document to correct any errors, mistakes, omissions, defects or inconsistencies, or to effect administrative changes that are not adverse to any Lender, and such amendment shall become
effective without any further consent of any other party to such Loan Document other than the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. 
 (b)
If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “all Lenders,” “each Lender” or “each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is
obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then
the Borrowers may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity (which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers and
the Administrative Agent) shall agree, as of such date, to purchase at par for cash the Advances and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance and to become a Lender for all purposes under this
Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date, and (ii) each Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement all principal, interest, fees
and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by such Borrower to and including the date of termination. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver
by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

SECTION 9.02 Notices, Etc. 

(a) All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecopier) and mailed (including email as
permitted under Section 9.02(b)), telecopied or delivered, if to a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to the address, telecopier number or if applicable, electronic mail address, specified for such Person on Schedule II; or, as to a Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties and, as to each other party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. All such notices and communications shall, when mailed or telecopied, be effective three Business Days after being deposited in the mails, postage prepaid, or upon confirmation of receipt (except that if
electronic confirmation of receipt is received at a time that the recipient is not open for business, the applicable notice or communication shall be effective at the opening of business on the next business day of the recipient), respectively,
except that notices and communications to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II, III or VII shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent. Delivery by telecopier or other electronic


  
 -97- 








 
communication of an executed counterpart of any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of any Exhibit hereto to be executed and delivered hereunder shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof. 
 (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the
Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to
notices to any Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or any 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 the 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 intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication
is available and identifying the website address therefor. 
 (c) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.”
THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. 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 ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE
BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of a Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however,
that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 

  
 -98- 








 (d) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that any
communication has been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such information, documents or other materials to such Lender for purposes of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to
time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire
instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, 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 Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to a Borrower or its securities for purposes of
United States federal or state securities laws. 
 (e) If any notice required under this Agreement is permitted to be made, and is made, by
telephone, actions taken or omitted to be taken in reliance thereon by the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be binding upon the Borrowers notwithstanding any inconsistency between the notice provided by telephone and any subsequent writing
in confirmation thereof provided to the Administrative Agent or such Lender; provided that any such action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have been in good faith and in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement. 
 (f) With respect to notices and other communications hereunder from a Borrower to any Lender, such Borrower shall
provide such notices and other communications to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver such notices and other communications to any such Lender in accordance with subsection (b) above or otherwise. 

SECTION 9.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by applicable law. 
 SECTION 9.04 Costs and Expenses. 

(a) The Reporting Entity agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, upon demand, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of
each Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including (i) all due diligence, syndication (including printing
and distribution), duplication and messenger costs and (ii) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of a single primary counsel (and a local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto and
with respect to advising the Agents as to their respective rights and responsibilities under this Agreement. The Reporting Entity further agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, upon demand, all reasonable and


  
 -99- 








 
documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agents and the Lenders, if any, in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this
Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees and expenses of a single primary counsel and an additional single local counsel in any local jurisdictions for the Agents and
the Lenders and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers of the existence of such conflict, one additional counsel, in connection with the enforcement of rights under this
Agreement. 
 (b) The Reporting Entity agrees to, or to cause the applicable Borrower to, indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and each
Lender and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, penalties, liabilities and
expenses (provided, that each Borrower’s obligations to the Indemnified Parties in respect of fees and expenses of counsel shall be limited to the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for all Indemnified Parties, taken together,
(and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction) and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, of one additional counsel for all Indemnified Parties, taken together (and, if reasonably
necessary, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction) (all such claims, damages, losses, penalties, liabilities and reasonable expenses being, collectively, the “Losses”)) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against
any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of, or in connection with the preparation for a defense of, any investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of, related to or in connection with
(i) this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of the Consolidated Group or any
Environmental Action relating in any way to the Consolidated Group, in each case whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrowers, their directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other
Person or any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, except to the extent Losses (A) are found in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates (including any material breach of its obligations under this Agreement), (B) result from any dispute
between an Indemnified Party and one or more other Indemnified Parties (other than against an Agent or Joint Lead Arranger acting in such a role) or (C) result from the claims of one or more Lenders solely against one or more other Lenders (and
not claims by one or more Lenders against any Agent acting in its capacity as such except, in the case of Losses incurred by any Agent or any Lender as a result of such claims, to the extent such Losses are found in a final, nonappealable judgment
by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (including any material breach of its obligations under this Agreement)) not attributable to any actions of a
member of the Consolidated Group and for which the members of the Consolidated Group otherwise have no liability. The Borrowers further agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or
otherwise) to the Borrowers or any of their shareholders or creditors for or in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated 

  
 -100- 








 
hereby or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances, except to the extent such liability is found in a final nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (including any material breach of its obligations under this Agreement). In no event, however, shall any Indemnified Party be liable on any theory of
liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9.04(b) shall not apply with respect to
Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. 
 (c) If any payment of principal
of, or Conversion of, any Eurocurrency Rate Advance is made by a Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of (i) a payment or Conversion pursuant to
Section 2.06, 2.08(d), 2.08(e), 2.10 or 2.12, (ii) acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01, (iii) a payment by an assignee to any Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for
such Advance upon an assignment of the rights and obligations of such Lender under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07 as a result of a demand by such Borrower pursuant to Section 9.07(b) or (iv) for any other reason, such
Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional reasonable losses,
costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion or as a result of any inability to Convert or exchange in the case of Section 2.08 or 2.12, including, without limitation, any reasonable loss (excluding
loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance. 

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of each Borrower
contained in Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

SECTION 9.05 Right of Setoff. Subject to Section 3.04, upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each
Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any
time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the applicable Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this
Agreement, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify such Borrower after any such setoff and application is made by such Lender;
provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 9.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including,
without limitation, other rights of setoff) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have. 

  
 -101- 








 SECTION 9.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective upon the
satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with Section 9.01) of the conditions set forth in Section 3.01 and, thereafter, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and
each Lender and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the Loan Parties shall have no right to assign their rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Lender, and any purported
assignment without such consent shall be null and void. 
 SECTION 9.07 Assignments and Participations. 

(a) Each Lender may, with the consent of (x) the Borrowers (A) prior to the funding of the Advances on the Closing Date, in the
Borrowers’ sole discretion (provided that such consent shall be deemed to have been given with respect to any Person identified to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrowers prior to the Initial Effective Date (the
“Pre-Approved Lenders”)) and (B) after the funding of the Advances on the Closing Date, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (y) the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, assign to one or more Persons (other than natural persons) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it);
provided, that (A) after the funding of the Advances on the Closing Date, the consent of the Borrowers shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (B) the consent of the Borrowers shall be
deemed given if the Borrowers shall not have objected within 10 Business Days following its receipt of written notice of such proposed assignment, and (C) in the case of an assignment to any other Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender, no such
consent shall be required from (x) the Administrative Agent, (y) the Borrowers with respect to assignments by any Lender to its Affiliate or to another Lender, or (z) the Borrowers if (1) the funding of the Advances on the
Closing Date has occurred or (2) a Certain Funds Default has occurred and is continuing, provided that in each such case notice thereof shall have been given to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. 

(b) Upon demand by the Borrowers (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent) (w) any Defaulting Lender, (x) any Lender
that has made a demand for payment pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.14, (y) any Lender that has asserted pursuant to Section 2.08(b) or 2.12 that it is impracticable or unlawful for such Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or
(z) any Lender that fails to consent to an amendment or waiver hereunder for which consent of all Lenders (or all affected Lenders) is required and as to which the Required Lenders shall have given their consent, will assign to one or more
Persons designated by the Borrowers all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it). 

  
 -102- 








 (c) In each such case, 

(A) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this
Agreement; 
 (B) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender or
an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement associated with a particular Class, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date
of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or at the Borrower’s option, the Sterling Equivalents of $10,000,000 and
$1,000,000, respectively); 
 (C) [Reserved]; 

(D) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.07(b) shall be arranged by
the Borrowers with the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a
portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that, in the aggregate, cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement; 

(E) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrowers pursuant to
Section 9.07(b), (1) so long as a Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (2) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from one or more assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount, and from the Reporting Entity or one or more assignees in an aggregate amount equal
to all other amounts accrued to such Lender under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any amounts owing under Sections 2.11, 2.14 or 9.04(c)) and (3) unless and until the Reporting Entity shall have paid (or caused to be paid) to the
Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The
assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and 
 (F) the
parties to each such assignment (other than, except in the case of a demand by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.07(b), the Borrowers) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an
Assignment and Acceptance and, if such assignment does not occur as a result of a demand by the Borrowers pursuant 

  
 -103- 








 
to Section 9.07(b) (in which case the Reporting Entity shall pay, or cause to be paid, the fee required by subclause (E)(3) of Section 9.07(c)), a processing and recordation fee of
$3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
 (d) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the
effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have
the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be
released from its obligations under this Agreement, except that such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of Sections 9.04(a) and (b) with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender
as a Lender hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). 

(e) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree
with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: 
 (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance,
such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; 
 (ii)
such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrowers or the performance or observance by the Borrowers of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any
other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; 
 (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this
Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01(e) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and
Acceptance; 
 (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, such assigning Lender or any other
Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; 

(v) [Reserved]; 

  
 -104- 








 (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such
action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and 

(vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this
Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 
 (f) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information
contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers. 
 (g) The Administrative Agent, acting solely
for this purpose as the agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02(a) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses
of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes,
absent demonstrable error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (h) Each Lender may sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates or any natural person) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a
portion of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it) without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers; provided, however, that: 

(i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment) shall remain unchanged;

 (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; 

(iii) such Lender shall remain the Lender of any such Advance for all purposes of this Agreement; 

(iv) the Borrowers, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection
with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 

  
 -105- 








 (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve
any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any departure by the Borrowers herefrom or therefrom, except as to matters requiring the approval of all the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.01; and 

(vi) prior to the funding of the Advances on the Closing Date, no Lender may sell participations except with the consent of the
Borrowers in their sole discretion. 
 Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers after any sale of a participation by such Lender pursuant to this
Section 9.07(h); provided that the failure of such Lender to give notice to the Borrowers as provided herein shall not affect the validity of such participation or impose any obligations on such Lender or the applicable participant. 

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters
the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided
that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit
or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c)
of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such
participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant
Register. 
 (i) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this
Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrowers furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided that, prior to any such disclosure,
the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to the Borrowers received by it from such Lender as more fully set forth in Section 9.08 and subject to the
requirements of Section 9.08 (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in such agreement, the Borrowers shall be third party beneficiaries of such agreement). 

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any
portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation and the Advances owing to it) to secure obligations of such Lender, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations in favor of any Federal
Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender. 

  
 -106- 








 SECTION 9.08 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees
to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors,
officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information
confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to
the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will, to the extent practicable and other than with
respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, notify the Borrowers promptly thereof, unless such notification is prohibited by law,
rule or regulation), (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject
to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or
(ii) any actual or prospective party (or its managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives) to any swap or derivative or similar transaction under which payments are to
be made by reference to the Borrowers and their obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (iii) any rating agency, or (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, (g) with the consent of the Borrowers or
(h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a
non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers. Each Lender acknowledges that its ability to disclose information concerning the Transactions is restricted by the City Code and the Panel and that this Section 9.08 is subject to
those restrictions. 
 For purposes of this Section, “Information” means this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and all information
received from the Consolidated Group relating to the Consolidated Group or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to
disclosure by the Consolidated Group. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of
care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information, but in any case reasonable care. 

SECTION 9.09 Debt Syndication during the Certain Funds Period. Each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent confirms that it
is aware of the terms and requirements of Practice Statement No. 25 (Debt Syndication during Offer Periods) issued by the Panel. 

SECTION 9.10 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New
York. 

  
 -107- 








 SECTION 9.11 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier, facsimile or in a .pdf or similar file shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.12 Jurisdiction, Etc.. 

(a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of
any New York State court sitting in New York County or any federal court of the United States of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement,
or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such New York State
court or, to the extent permitted by law, in any such federal court. Each of the parties hereto 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. 
 (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may
legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto
hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing
in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The Loan Parties hereby appoint STERIS Corporation, 5960 Heisley Road, Mentor, Ohio 44060-1834, or should it subsequently
have its principal place of business in The City of New York, at such principal place of business, as their agent for service of process, and agree that service of any process, summons, notice or document by hand delivery or registered mail upon
such agent shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or proceeding brought in any court referenced in Section 9.12(b). 

SECTION 9.13 Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby
notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Loan Parties and other
information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Loan Parties shall provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take
such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lenders in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act. 

  
 -108- 








 SECTION 9.14 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In its capacity as an Agent or
a Lender, (a) no Agent or Lender has any responsibility except as set forth herein and (b) no Agent or Lender shall be subject to any fiduciary duties or other implied duties (to the extent permitted by law to be waived). The Borrower
agrees that it will not take any position or bring any claim against any Agent or any Lender that is contrary to the preceding sentence. 
 In connection
with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof), the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that: (i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement
provided by the Agents and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrowers and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Lenders, on the other hand; (ii) each Agent and each Lender is and has been
acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor or agent for the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates, or any other Person; and
(iii) the Agents, the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and no Agent or Lender has any obligation
to disclose any of such interests to the Borrowers or their Affiliates. 
 SECTION 9.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the
Borrowers and the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the actions of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the negotiation, administration, performance or enforcement thereof. 

SECTION 9.16 Conversion of Currencies. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum
owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant
jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 

The obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the
“Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only
to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction
purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, each Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation
and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss with respect to such Borrower. The obligations of each Borrower contained in this Section 9.16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
payment of all other amounts owing hereunder. 

  
 -109- 








 SECTION 9.17 Amendment and Restatement and Continuing Effect. This Agreement
constitutes for all purposes an amendment and a restatement of the Existing Bridge Credit Agreement and as of the Effective Date all commitments and advances outstanding under the Existing Bridge Credit Agreement shall constitute Commitments or
Advances, respectively, under this Agreement. The Existing Bridge Credit Agreement, as amended and restated hereby, continues in full force and effect as so amended and restated by this Agreement. On and after the Effective Date, the Retiring
Borrower shall have no rights or obligations as, and shall not be, either (i) a Borrower or (ii) a Loan Party under the Existing Bridge Credit Agreement as amended and restated by this Agreement.
