 WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.25 of the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement may, without the consent of any other

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto
agree as follows: 
 Each New Term Loan Lender (i) confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the

(ii) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Agent 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 the Credit Agreement; (iii) appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent and each other Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Agreement and
the other Credit Documents as are delegated to Administrative Agent or such other Agent, as the case may be, by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (iv) agrees that it will perform in
accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 
 Each New Term Loan Lender hereby commits to provide its respective New Term Loan Commitment as set forth on Schedule A annexed hereto, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below:

any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the Series A Tranche B Term Loans in accordance with Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14 of the Credit Agreement respectively. 


 

	4.	Closing Fee. Borrower agrees to pay on the date hereof to Administrative Agent, for the account of each New Term Loan Lender party to this Agreement, as fee
compensation for the funding of such New Term Loan Lender’s Series A Tranche B Term Loans, a closing fee in an amount equal to 2.50% of the aggregate principal amount of such New Term Loan Lender’s Series A Tranche B Term Loans funded as

 -2-










	5.	Prepayment Premium. In the event that on or prior to the first anniversary of the Series A Tranche B Term Loan Funding Date (as defined below), the Borrower
(x) makes any prepayment of the Series A Tranche B Term Loans in connection with any Repricing Transaction or (y) effects any amendment of the Credit Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Lenders, (I) in the case of clause (x) above, a prepayment premium of 1% of the amount of the Series A Tranche B Term Loans being prepaid and (II) in the case of
clause (y) above, a payment equal to 1% of the aggregate amount of the applicable Series A Tranche B Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment. 


 

	    	For purposes of this Agreement, a “Repricing Transaction” means the prepayment or refinancing of all or a portion of the Series A Tranche B Term Loans
with the incurrence by any Credit Party of any long-term bank debt financing having an effective interest cost or weighted average yield (excluding any arrangement or commitment fees in connection therewith) that is less than the effective interest
cost for or weighted average yield of the Series A Tranche B Term Loans, including without limitation, as may be effected through any amendment to this Agreement relating to the effective interest cost for, or weighted average yield of, the Series A
Tranche B Term Loans. 

  

	6.	Proposed Borrowing. In accordance with Section 2.25 of the Credit Agreement, Borrower has previously delivered to Administrative Agent an executed Funding
Notice for Series A Tranche B Term Loans, requesting a proposed borrowing in the principal amount of $600,000,000 (the “Proposed Borrowing”) on the date hereof (the “Series A Tranche B Term Loan Funding Date”). Each
New Term Loan Lender shall make its Series A Tranche B Term Loan available to Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date hereof, by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars at the Principal Office designated by
Administrative Agent. Promptly upon receipt thereof, Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of the Series A Tranche B Term Loans available to Borrower on the date hereof by causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars equal to the proceeds
of all such loans received by Administrative Agent from New Term Loan Lenders to be credited to the account of Borrower, at the Principal Office designated by Administrative Agent or to such other account as may be designated in writing to
Administrative Agent by Borrower. 

  

	7.	New Lenders. Each New Term Loan Lender (other than any New Term Loan Lender that, immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement, is a “Lender”
under the Credit Agreement) acknowledges and agrees that upon its execution of this Agreement its Series A Tranche B Term Loan Commitments shall be effective and that such New Term Loan Lender shall become a “Lender” under, and for all
purposes of, the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and shall be subject to and bound by the terms thereof, and shall perform all the obligations of and shall have all rights of a Lender thereunder. 


 

	8.	Amendment to Credit Agreement. Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended (the “Amendment”) by deleting clause (a) of the
definition of Applicable Margin and replacing it in its entirety with the following: 

 “(a) (i) with respect to Tranche
B Term Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans, 3.75% per annum and (ii) with respect to Tranche B Term Loans that are Base Rate Loans, 2.75% per annum”. 

  
 -3-










	    	The Amendment set forth in this Section 8 shall be effective on the Series A Tranche B Term Loan Funding Date, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of an
executed counterpart of this Agreement by (A) the Borrower, (B) the other Credit Parties and (C) the Administrative Agent and consummation of the Proposed Borrowing. 


 

	9.	Credit Agreement Governs. Series A Tranche B Term Loans shall be subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, except
as set forth in this Agreement, and shall constitute Tranche B Term Loans thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, Section 5 of this Agreement shall supersede the final paragraph of Section 2.13(a) of the Credit Agreement with respect to
Series A Tranche B Term Loans. 

  

	10.	Borrower’s Certifications. By its execution of this Agreement, the undersigned officer, to the best of his or her knowledge, and Borrower hereby certify
that: 

  

	 	i.	The representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date

material respects on and as of such earlier date; 

  

	 	ii.	No event has occurred and is continuing or would result from the consummation of the Proposed Borrowing contemplated hereby that would constitute a Default or an Event
of Default; and 

  

	 	iii.	Borrower has performed in all material respects all agreements and satisfied all conditions which the Credit Agreement provides shall be performed or satisfied by it on
or before the date hereof in connection with the Proposed Borrowing.

Commitments. 

  

	12.	Eligible Assignee. By its execution of this Agreement, each New Term Loan Lender (other than any New Term Loan Lender that, immediately prior to the

	 	ii.	Each Credit Party, by its signature below, hereby affirms and confirms (a) its obligations under each of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, and

pledge and/or grant continue in full force and effect in respect of, and to secure, such Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents. 


 

	 	ii.	Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that each of the Credit Documents in existence as of the date hereof shall be henceforth read and construed in accordance with

 -5-










	20.	Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the
extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any
other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as would be enforceable. 


 

	21.	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same
agreement.
