provided, however, that (i) the final principal repayment installment of the Loans shall be repaid on the
Maturity Date and in any event shall be in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding on such date and (ii) if any principal repayment installment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a
Business Day, such principal repayment installment shall be due on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.06. Payments Generally; Administrative Agents Clawback.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative
Agents Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage in respect of the Facility (or other
applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lenders Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding
Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Except as otherwise specifically provided for in this

Agreement, if any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall
be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender prior to the proposed date of the Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lenders share of the Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on
such date in accordance with Section 2.03 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the Borrowing available to the
Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including
the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by 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, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the
case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Loans. If the 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 the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lenders Loan
included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall
have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the
Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders
severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is actually received by it
but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A notice of the
Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing
provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions set forth in Article V are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent
shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(d) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to
Section 9.06(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 9.06(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its
corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 9.06(c).

(e) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute
a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

(f) Except
to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) the Borrowing shall be made from the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (ii) the Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders according to the
amounts of their respective Commitments; (iii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by
them; and (iv) each payment of interest on Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the Lenders.

SECTION 2.07. Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any
right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (a) Obligations in respect of the Facility due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share
(according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect of the Facility due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations in respect of the Facility due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or
(b) Obligations in respect of the Facility owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such
Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect of the Facility owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at
such time) of payments on account of the Obligations in respect of the Facility owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time, then, in each case
under clauses (a) and (b) above, the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans, or make such other
adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Obligations in respect of the Facility then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but
not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be, provided that:



| | (i) | if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price
restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment
obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Borrower, the Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions
of this Section shall apply).
| | ---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable
Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the
Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.08. Holdback. The Administrative Agent shall retain an amount equal to [*]
(the Holdback Amount) for the item of Equipment named [*] as set forth in Schedule 1 hereof until such time as the Borrower, at the Borrowers sole expense, causes to be furnished to Administrative Agent and each
Lender an appraisal of such item of Equipment by an Approved Appraiser confirming that such item of Equipment is refurbished, reclaimed and in good operating condition and satisfies the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(q) hereof (the
Holdback Appraisal). Upon receipt of the Holdback Appraisal, the Administrative Agent shall make the Holdback Amount available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the
account of the Borrower on the books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the
Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower and Guarantor acknowledge and agree a Holdback Appraisal of such item of Equipment cannot be obtained on or prior to the date hereof.

ARTICLE III

Rate). Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Law.

SECTION 3.03. Liens; Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective
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, in whatever currency) at any
time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the
Borrower may be contingent or unmatured, secured or unsecured, or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each
Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly
after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

SECTION 3.04. Prepayment.

(a) Optional Prepayments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Borrower may, upon notice to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Loan Prepayment, prepay the Loans, and in part (subject to a minimum amount of Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000)); provided that,
unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lenders ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lenders Applicable Percentage in respect of the Facility). If
such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. On such date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent,
in addition to the principal amount being prepaid (the Principal Prepayment Amount), all accrued but unpaid interest then due thereon together with all other sums due hereunder and the applicable Prepayment Fee (if any). Each
prepayment of the outstanding Loans pursuant to this Section 3.04(a) shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof on a pro-rata basis. Such prepayments shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective
Applicable Percentages of the Facility.

Allocated Percentage Value(s) of the Vessel(s) or Equipment sold, and the denominator of which is the Allocated Percentage Value of all Vessels and the Equipment then securing the Borrowers Obligations immediately prior to such sale, plus all
accrued interest then due thereon and the Prepayment Fee;

(ii) one or more of the Vessels or any Equipment sustains a Total Loss, the
Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, within ninety (90) days thereafter (unless the Borrower substitutes in a similar item of Collateral in compliance with the provisions of Section 4.06 hereof prior to the end of such 90 day
period) an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the outstanding principal balance of the Loans by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Allocated Percentage Value(s) of the Vessel(s) and/or Equipment lost, and the denominator of
which is the Allocated Percentage Value of all Vessels and all Equipment then securing the Borrowers Obligations immediately prior to such Total Loss, plus all accrued interest then due thereon and the Prepayment Fee, if any; or

(iii) it becomes unlawful or impossible for any Lender to continue to maintain its Loan, such Lender shall notify the Borrower, in writing
thereof and, within sixty (60) days thereafter, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender the principal amount then outstanding under such Loan, together with all accrued but unpaid interest due thereon; provided that the Borrower may
replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.03(b).

Each prepayment of Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of Section 3.04(b)
except Section 3.04(b)(iii) above shall be applied, on a pro-rata basis for all such principal repayment installments, including, without limitation, the final principal repayment installment on the Maturity Date. Such prepayments shall be paid

ARTICLE VI

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE LOAN PARTIES

SECTION 6.01. Representations and Warranties. The Loan Parties hereby represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent and each Lender
as follows:

(a) Organization and Powers. The Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of Delaware and is duly qualified and authorized to transact business as a foreign corporation in good standing wherever necessary to carry on its present business and operations, except in jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified
or in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Guarantor is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware and is duly qualified and
authorized to transact business as a foreign limited liability company in good standing wherever necessary to carry on its present business and operations except in jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not

the requisite power and authority to own, operate, and mortgage the Vessels.

(b) Authorization. Each Loan Party has duly

The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder and under any
documents or instruments executed pursuant hereto are cumulative, and recourse to one or more rights or remedies shall not constitute a waiver of the others or an election of remedies. It is mutually agreed that commercial reasonableness and good
faith require the giving of no more than ten (10) days prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of any Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition thereof is to be made,
and at any such public or private sale, subject to limitations of law, the Administrative Agent, any other Lender, or their respective agents and/or nominees, may purchase the Collateral. If the net proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral
exceed the amount then due and owing, whether by acceleration, at maturity or otherwise, or on demand, such excess will be remitted to Borrower or whomsoever shall be entitled thereto. The Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency remaining
after disposition of the Collateral.

If the Borrower fails to perform or comply with any of its obligations contained herein, the
Administrative Agent shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to effect such performance or compliance and the Borrower, within ten (10) days from the date of demand, promises to reimburse the Administrative Agent immediately for such
sums so expended, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate for the actual number of days elapsed from date of payment by the Administrative Agent to the date on which the Administrative Agent receives payment thereof from the Borrower.
Failure of the Borrower to pay and promptly discharge the aforesaid debts and obligations shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement, but the payment of the same by the Administrative Agent shall not cure or constitute a waiver of
such Event of Default. Acceptance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of partial payment(s) or performance by the Borrower or by any other third party shall not be construed as a waiver of any Event of Default, nor shall the same affect or in
any way impair the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder.

After the exercise of remedies provided for in this Section
(or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable) or if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all Secured Obligations then due hereunder, any amounts received
on account of the Secured Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:

First, to payment of
that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Article III) payable to Administrative Agent
in its capacity as such;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other
amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders (including fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of any Lender) arising under the
Loan Documents and amounts payable under Article X, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

Third, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and
unpaid interest on the Loans and other Secured Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, in each case ratably among the
Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; and

Last, the balance, if any, after
all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Applicable Law.

If the proceeds are insufficient to
pay the amounts specified in paragraphs First, Second, Third and Fourth above, the Administrative Agent and other Secured Parties shall be entitled to collect the balance from the Borrower or any other
Person liable therefor. The Borrower hereby expressly waives (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) all rights to make or manifest any binding instruction upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender as to application of such payments other than
as herein provided.

SECTION 8.02. Miscellaneous Remedies. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the
Administrative Agent may (and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall) do any or all of the following in addition to any of the remedies described above; provided, however, notwithstanding any other provision herein to the
contrary, except to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, no sale, transfer or other disposition of any Vessel or any interest therein may be made in violation of Sections 56101 and 56102 of Title 46 of the United States Code:

(a) at any time and as often as may be necessary, take any action to protect the security created hereby and each and every expense or
liability (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) so incurred by the Administrative Agent in the protection of such security shall be repayable to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within ten (10) Business Days of demand,
together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date on which such expense or liability was incurred by the Administrative Agent until full payment is received. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower
promptly shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Administrative Agent such documents, if any, and shall promptly do and perform such acts, if any, as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent that are
necessary or advisable to facilitate or expedite the protection, maintenance and enforcement of the security created hereby;

(b) exercise
all the rights and remedies in foreclosure and otherwise provided to lenders by any Applicable Law, including, without limitation, the Uniform Commercial Code;

of them and to takeover or institute (if necessary using the name of the Borrower and/or the Guarantor) all such proceedings in connection therewith as the Administrative Agent reasonably thinks fit and to permit the brokers through whom collection
or recovery is effected to charge the usual brokerage therefor;

(f) discharge, compound, release or compromise claims against the
Borrower concerning the Collateral which have given or may give rise to any charge or lien on the Collateral or which are or may be enforceable by proceedings against the Collateral;

(g) take appropriate judicial, extra-judicial or administrative proceedings for the foreclosure of the lien created hereby or by the Fleet
Mortgage and/or for the enforcement of the rights of the Administrative Agent and other Secured Parties hereunder or otherwise, recover judgment for any amount due on the Obligations and collect the same out of any property of the Borrower;

(h) as permitted by United States and other Applicable Law, sell the Collateral at public auction, free from any claim of or by the Borrower
of any nature whatsoever by first giving notice of the time and place of sale with a general description of the Collateral in the following manner:

(i) by publishing such notice for ten (10) consecutive days in a daily newspaper of general circulation published in New York City, New
York;

(ii) if the place of sale should not be New York City, New York, then also by publication of a similar notice in a daily
newspaper, if any, published at the place of sale; and

(iii) by sending a similar notice by telecopy confirmed by mail to the Borrower
at least ten (10) days before the date of sale as permitted by United States and other Applicable Law.

Such sale of the Collateral
may be held at such place and at such time as the Administrative Agent in such notices may have specified, or such sale may be adjourned by the Administrative Agent from time to time by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or
for such adjourned sale and without further notice or publication the Administrative

such manner as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable, and the Administrative Agent or any other Lender may become the purchaser at such sale and shall have the right to credit on the purchase price any and all amounts due in respect of such
Note and/or any Obligations, as appropriate. Any sale made in accordance with the provisions of this subsection (h) above shall be deemed made in a commercially reasonable manner insofar as the Borrower is concerned;

charter, lease, insure, maintain, or repair the Collateral and employ, lay up or operate the Collateral upon such terms, in such manner and for such period as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem expedient and for the purpose aforesaid the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to do all acts and things incidental or conducive thereto and in particular, with respect to the Vessels, to enter into such arrangements respecting the Vessels, their management, maintenance, repair,
classification and employment in all respects as if the Administrative Agent were the owner of the Vessels but without any obligations to take any action with respect to the Vessels and without any responsibility for any loss thereby incurred;

(j) recover from the Borrower on demand any losses as may be incurred by the Administrative Agent in the exercise of the power vested in the

Administrative Agent or under a judgment or decree in any judicial proceeding for the foreclosure of the lien created hereunder, or proceeds arising from the enforcement of any remedy granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder, or, or in the case
of the Vessels or the proceeds of any and all Insurances and any claims for damages on account of the Vessels or the Borrower of any nature whatsoever and any net earnings of the Vessels from the operation of the Vessels by the Administrative Agent

writing as may be required to vest in the Administrative Agent any right, title or power which by the terms hereof are expressed to be

available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee (or such Indemnitees Related Parties) or result from a claim brought by the Borrower or the Guarantor against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitees obligations hereunder or under any
other Loan Document, if the Borrower or the Guarantor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the provisions of Section 10.01(c),
this Section 9.06(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lenders pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each
Lenders share of the Total Credit Exposure at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender), such payment to be made severally among them based on such Lenders
Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought), provided, further that, the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related
expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such
sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(d).

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and the
Borrower hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of,
in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred
to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic

any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or
written, relating to the subject matter hereof . Except as provided in Article V, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received
counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any certificate delivered thereunder, by
fax transmission or e-mail transmission (e.g. pdf or tif) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other Loan Document or certificate. Without limiting the foregoing, to the
extent a manually executed counterpart is not specifically required to be delivered under the terms of any Loan Document, upon the request of any party, such fax transmission or e-mail transmission shall be promptly followed by such manually
executed counterpart.

SECTION 9.09. Headings. The titles of the Articles and the Section headings of this Agreement are for

unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.11. Survival. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered
pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender,
regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Loan, and shall
continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

SECTION 9.12.
WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO WHICH THEY MAY BE PARTIES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO (A) THIS AGREEMENT OR

outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to
the Administrative Agent or, if Trade Date is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to the Loans and/or the Commitment assigned.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection
(b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the Borrowers consent shall be required during the primary
syndication of the Facility; provided, however, the Borrowers consent shall not be required for any assignment after the Closing Date so long as such assignment is made to a commercial bank and/or an affiliate of a commercial
bank; and

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be
required for assignments in respect of (1) any unfunded Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender or (2) any Loan to a Person that is not

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrower or any of the
Borrowers Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to a natural Person, or (C) to any Person that is a competitor of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as such competitors are separately identified by Borrower to the Administrative Agent
on or prior to the Closing Date and from time to time thereafter as requested by the Administrative Agent; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into,
monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to competitors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender

out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any competitor. The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrower hereby expressly
authorizes the Administrative Agent, to post the list of competitors provided by the Borrower on the Platform, including that portion of the Platform that is designated for public side Lenders and/or provide the list of
competitors to each Lender requesting the same.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections
10.01, 10.02 and 9.06 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any
assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an
agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agents Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register
for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the Register).
The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for
all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower or any of the Borrowers Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a Participant) in all or a portion of such Lenders rights and/or obligations under
this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lenders obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to
the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lenders rights and
obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 9.06(c) without regard to the existence of any participations.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall
provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not,
without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 9.01 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 10.01 and 10.02 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 10.01(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 10.01(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such
Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 10.03 and 10.04 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Sections 10.01 or 10.02, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation 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. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrowers request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower
to effectuate the provisions of Section 10.03 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.03 as though it were a Lender;
provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.07 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, 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 Loans 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 manifest 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.

(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement (including under its Note or Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such
Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(iii) If the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by any Applicable Law other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes

or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant

reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to Section 10.01(c)(ii) below.

(ii) Each
Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify and shall make payment in respect thereof within twenty (20) days after demand therefor, (A) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to

any Taxes attributable to such Lenders failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.13(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (C) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as applicable, against
any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower 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 as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent
manifest 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent
under this clause (ii).

other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the 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 10.01(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lenders

been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 10.01, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such
refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 10.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes)
incurred by such Recipient, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay
the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net
after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect
to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(g) Survival. Each partys obligations under this Section 10.01 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 other Obligations.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of,
deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender;

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other
than (A) Indemnified Taxes and (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered (it being understood that
the provisions set forth in this Section are not intended to derogate from the Borrowers rights provided in Section 10.03).

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting
such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lenders holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lenders capital or on the capital
of such Lenders holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lenders holding company could have achieved but
for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lenders policies and the policies of such Lenders holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lenders holding company for any such reduction suffered (it being understood that the provisions set forth in this Section are not intended to derogate from the Borrowers rights
provided in Section 10.03).

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or
amounts (together with a description and calculation of such amounts) necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 10.02 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lenders right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any
increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lenders intention to claim
compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof, but in any
event, shall not extend more than 365 days prior to the date that such notice was received by the Borrower).

SECTION 10.03. Mitigation
Obligations.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 10.02, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Section 10.01, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 10.01, then at the request of the Borrower, such Lender shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 10.01 or 10.02 as the case may
be, in the future, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 10.02, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 10.01 and, in each case, such
Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 10.03(a), or if any Lender provides notice to the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(iii), the Borrower may replace such
Lender in accordance with Section 10.04.

SECTION 10.04. Replacement of Lenders. If the Borrower is entitled to replace a
Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.03, or if any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, either (i) repay all
Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender (without any Prepayment Fee) relating to the Loans held by such Lender or (ii) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions
contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.13), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 10.01 and 10.02) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan
Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon,
accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
provided, that no Prepayment Fee shall be payable to such Lender;

(b) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim
for compensation under Section 10.02 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 10.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(c) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law; and

(d) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the
applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

(e) A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto,
as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

All of the Borrowers obligations under this Article X shall survive termination of the Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder,
resignation of the Administrative Agent and the Maturity Date.

ARTICLE XI

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 11.01. Appointment and Authority.

(a) Appointment. 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 Borrower 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.

(b) Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also act as the collateral agent under the
Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the
Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as collateral agent and any co-agents, sub-agents and
attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Loan Documents, or for exercising any rights and
remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article XI and Article IX (including Section 9.06(c) as though such co-agents, sub-agents and
attorneys-in-fact were the collateral agent under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

SECTION 11.02. Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in
its capacity as a Lender, if such Person is 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 Borrower 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 11.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any
duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein 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; 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 Borrower 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 Section 9.01and Article VIII) 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 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 Borrower 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 V or
elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 11.04.
Reliance by the 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 genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. 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 a Loan 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 Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), 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 11.05. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative
Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under 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 non appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful
misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

SECTION 11.06. Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice
of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, 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) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue
to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring 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 Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 10.01(g) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring Administrative Agent as of the
Resignation Effective Date), and the retiring 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 the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agents resignation
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.06 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 11.07. 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 11.08. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim; Credit Bidding. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Law or any other similar judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other
Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 9.06) allowed in such judicial proceeding;
and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making

of such payments directly to the Lenders to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and
its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 9.06.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the
Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the
Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to a deed in
lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of
the United States, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar Applicable Law in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or foreclosure or
acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any Applicable Law. In connection with any such credit bid and
purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a
ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity
Interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a
bid, (ii) to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the
assets or Equity Interests thereof shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders
contained in clauses (a) through (i) of Section 9.01 of this Agreement, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to assign the relevant Obligations to any such acquisition vehicle pro rata by the Lenders, as a
result of which each of the Lenders shall be deemed to have received a pro rata portion of any Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by such an acquisition vehicle on account of the assignment of the Obligations to be credit bid, all
without the need for any Lender or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (iv) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid
being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders pro rata
and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Obligations that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Lender or any acquisition
vehicle to take any further action.

SECTION 11.09. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Without limiting the provisions of
Section 11.08, the Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon
termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations), (ii) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any
sale or other disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) subject to Section 9.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agents authority
to release its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this Section 11.09.

The Administrative Agent
shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agents Lien
thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

(a) demand payment of the
Secured Indebtedness, by written notice to the Owner, whereupon such payment by the Owner to the Mortgagee shall be immediately due and payable without prejudice to any other rights and remedies of the Mortgagee (provided no demand or notices shall

(b) at any time and as often as may be necessary, take any action to protect the security created by this Mortgage and each and every expense

which such expense or liability was incurred by the Mortgagee until full payment is received. The Owner promptly shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, and shall promptly do and

(i) as permitted by the laws of the United States of America and other Applicable Law, sell
the Vessels at public auction, free from any claim of or by the Owner of any nature whatsoever by first giving notice of the time and place of sale with a general description of the Vessels in the following manner:

(i) by publishing such notice for ten (10) consecutive days in a daily newspaper of general circulation published in New York City, New
York; and

(ii) if the place of sale should not be New York City, New York, then also by publication of a similar notice in a daily
newspaper, if any, published at the place of sale; and

(iii) by sending a similar notice by telecopy confirmed by mail to the Owner at
least ten (10) days before the date of sale as permitted by the laws of the United States of America and other applicable law.

Such
sale of the Vessels may be held at such place and at such time as the Mortgagee in such notices may have specified, or such sale may be adjourned by the Mortgagee from time to time by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for
such adjourned sale and without further notice or publication the Mortgagee may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned. Such sale may be conducted without bringing the Vessels to the place designated for such
sale and in such manner as the Mortgagee may deem advisable, and the Mortgagee or any other Secured Party may become the purchaser at such sale and shall have the right to credit on the purchase price any and all amounts due in respect of the
Secured Indebtedness, as appropriate. Any sale made in accordance with the provisions of this subsection (i) above shall be deemed made in a commercially reasonable manner insofar as the Owner is concerned;

(j) pending the sale of the Vessels (either directly or indirectly), as permitted by the laws of the United States of America and other
Applicable Law, manage, charter, lease, insure, maintain or repair the Vessels and employ or lay up the Vessels upon such terms, in such manner and for such period as the Mortgagee may reasonably deem expedient and for the purpose aforesaid the
Mortgagee shall be entitled to do all acts and things incidental or conducive thereto and in particular to enter into such arrangements respecting the Vessels, their insurance, management, maintenance, repair, classification and employment in all
respects as if the Mortgagee were the owner of the Vessels but without any obligations to take any action with respect to the Vessels and without any responsibility for any loss thereby incurred;

(k) recover from the Owner on demand any losses as may be incurred by the Mortgagee in the exercise of the power vested in the Mortgagee under
subsection (j) hereof with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date when such losses were incurred by the Mortgagee until full payment is received; and

(l) recover from the Owner on demand all expenses, payments and disbursements (including fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the
Mortgagee in the exercise by it of any of the powers vested in it hereunder, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date when such expenses, payments or disbursements were incurred by it until full payment is received;

PROVIDED, ALWAYS, that any sale by the Mortgagee of the Vessels or any shares therein
pursuant to this Section 5 shall operate to divest all rights, title and interest of any nature whatsoever of the Owner, its successors and assigns, and all Persons claiming by, through or under the Owner in or to the Vessels or such
shares so sold and upon such sale the purchaser shall not be bound to see or inquire whether the power of sale of the Mortgagee has arisen in the manner herein provided and the sale shall be deemed to be within the power of the Mortgagee and the
receipt by the Mortgagee of the purchase money shall effectively discharge the purchaser, who shall not be concerned with the manner of application of the proceeds of the sale or be in any way answerable therefor. The Owner hereby irrevocably
appoints the Mortgagee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the true and lawful attorney of the Owner, in its name and stead, to make all necessary transfers of the whole or any part of the Vessels in connection with a sale, use or other
disposition pursuant to this Section 5, and for that purpose to execute all necessary instruments of assignment and transfer. Nevertheless, the Owner shall, if so requested by the Mortgagee, ratify and confirm any sale, assignment,
transfer or delivery by executing and delivering such proper bill of sale, assignment, conveyance, instrument of transfer or other instrument as may be designated in such request.

6. Application of Moneys. The proceeds of any sale made either under the power of sale hereby granted to the Mortgagee, for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, or under a judgment or decree in any judicial proceeding for the foreclosure of this Mortgage, or proceeds arising from the enforcement of any remedy granted to the Mortgagee hereunder, or any net earnings arising from the
management, charter or other use of the Vessels by the Mortgagee under any of the powers herein granted or the proceeds of any and all Insurances and any claims for damages on account of the Vessels or the Owner of any nature whatsoever and any net
earnings of the Vessels from the operation of the Vessels by the Mortgagee under any of the powers herein granted or by law provided or any Requisition Compensation shall be applied as set forth in Section 8.01 of the Loan Agreement. If
the proceeds are insufficient to pay the amounts specified in paragraphs First, Second, Third and Fourth of Section 8.01 of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgagee and other Secured Parties shall
be entitled to collect the balance from the Owner or any other Person liable therefor.

7. Delay and Cure. No delay or omission of
the Mortgagee to exercise any right or power vested in it under this Mortgage shall impair such right or power or be construed as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default by the Owner hereunder or under the Loan Agreement, the Notes or
any other Loan Document, nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee or any other Secured Party of any payments concerning this Mortgage from any source be deemed a waiver hereunder. However, if at any time after an Event of Default and before the
actual sale of the Vessels by the Mortgagee or before any foreclosure proceedings, the Owner cures completely and promptly all Events of Default and pays promptly all expenses, advances and damages to the Mortgagee arising from such Events of
Default, with interest at the Default Rate from the date when such expenses, advances and damages were incurred until full payment is received, then the Mortgagee may, in its sole discretion, accept such cure and payment and restore the Owner to its
former position, but such action shall not affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any rights consequent thereon.

8. Delegation of Mortgagees Powers. The Mortgagee shall be entitled at any time
and as often as may be expedient to delegate all or any of the powers and discretions vested in it by this Mortgage (including the power vested in it by virtue of Section 10 hereof) in such manner and upon such terms and to such Persons as the
Mortgagee in its absolute discretion may think fit.

9. Owners Indemnity. Without prejudice to any other rights and remedies
of the Mortgagee arising under this Mortgage, the Owner hereby agrees and undertakes to indemnify the Mortgagee and the other Secured Parties from and against any and all obligations and liabilities whatsoever and whensoever incurred by the
Mortgagee or the other Secured Parties in the enforcement of the Mortgagees rights hereunder; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (or such Indemnitees Related Parties) or
result from a claim brought by the Borrower or the Guarantor against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitees obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or the Guarantor has obtained a final and
nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

10. Power of Attorney.

(a) The Owner hereby irrevocably appoints the Mortgagee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as its attorney-in-fact (which appointment is
irrevocable and coupled with an interest) for the duration of the term hereof to do in the name of the Owner or in the Mortgagees own name while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all acts that the Owner, or its successors or
assigns, could do in relation to the Vessels, including, without limitation, to demand, collect, receive, compromise, settle and sue for (insofar as the Mortgagee lawfully may), all amounts due from underwriters under the Insurances as payment for
losses or as return of premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, in general average or otherwise, and all other sums due or to become due to the Owner or arising from the Vessels, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Owner
acquittance, receipts, releases, or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, to take possession of, sell or otherwise dispose of or manage or employ the Vessels, to execute and deliver charters and a bill of sale for the
Vessels, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Owner all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements and all other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing.

(b) The exercise by or on behalf of the Mortgagee of the power granted in this Section 10 shall not require any Person dealing
with the Mortgagee to conduct any inquiry as to whether any Event of Default has occurred, nor shall such Person be in any way affected by notice that any Event of Default does not exist, and the exercise by the Mortgagee of such power shall, with
regard to such Person, be conclusive evidence of the Mortgagees right to exercise the same.

11. Arrest by a Third Party. If
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and one or more of the Vessels shall be arrested or detained by a marshal or other officer of any court of law, equity or admiralty jurisdiction in any country of the world or by any

government or other authority and shall not be released from arrest or detention within thirty (30) days from the date of arrest or detention, the Owner hereby authorizes the Mortgagee, in
the name of the Owner, to apply for and receive possession of and to take possession of such Vessel(s) with all of the rights and powers that the Owner might have, possess and exercise in any such event. This authorization is irrevocable and coupled
with an interest.

12. Jurisdiction. The Mortgagee shall have the right to commence proceedings in the courts of any country having
jurisdiction over any Vessel. In particular, the Mortgagee shall have the right to arrest and take action against the Vessels at whatever places the Vessels shall be found lying and for the purpose of any such action, before the local court or other
judicial authority with jurisdiction over the Vessels. The Owner agrees that for the purpose of proceedings against the Vessels, any writ, notice, judgment or other legal process or documents may be served upon the respective Masters of the Vessels
(or upon anyone acting as the Master) and that such service shall be deemed good service on the Owner for all purposes.

13. Invalid
Provisions. If any provision or provisions of this Mortgage shall be declared invalid, void or otherwise inoperative by any present or future court of competent jurisdiction in any country, the Owner will, without prejudice to any other right
and remedy of the Mortgagee under this Mortgage, execute and deliver such other and further instruments and do such things as in the opinion of the Mortgagee or its counsel will be necessary or advisable to carry out the intent and spirit of this
Mortgage. In any event, any such declaration of partial invalidity shall not affect the validity of any other provision or provisions of this Mortgage, which shall remain in full force and effect, or the validity of this Mortgage as a whole.

14. Further Assurance. The Owner hereby further undertakes at its own expense to execute, sign, perfect, do and (if required), register
every such further assurance, document, act or thing reasonably requested by the Mortgagee for the purpose of maintaining or perfecting or exercising the security constituted by this Mortgage.

15. Cumulative Remedies. Each and every power and remedy in this Mortgage specifically given to the Mortgagee shall be in addition to
every other power and remedy herein specifically given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, admiralty, or by statute, and each and every power and remedy, whether specifically in this Mortgage given or otherwise existing, may be exercised
from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the commencement of the exercise of any such power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same
time or thereafter any other power or remedy under this Mortgage.

16. Amount of Mortgage. The total amount of obligations secured
this Mortgage is Fifty Million United States Dollars ($50,000,000) (exclusive of interest, fees, costs and expenses). The discharge amount is the same as the total amount.

17. Preferred Status. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, it is intended that nothing herein shall waive the preferred
status of this Mortgage and that, if any provision or portion of this Mortgage shall be construed to waive its preferred status, then such provision or portion to such extent shall be void and of no effect.

EXECUTION COPY

GUARANTY

THIS
GUARANTY (this Guaranty), dated as of November 4, 2014, is made by Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Guarantor), for the benefit of Bank of America,
N.A., as Administrative Agent (the Administrative Agent), and each of the other Secured Parties (as defined in the hereinafter defined Loan Agreement). Capitalized terms used herein shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the
meanings provided in the Loan Agreement referred to below.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Guarantor is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
Borrower);

WHEREAS, the Borrower has entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of
November 4, 2014 by and among the Borrower, Guarantor, the financial institutions from time to time party thereto as Lenders and the Administrative Agent (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to
time in writing, the Loan Agreement), under which loans and other financial accommodations heretofore have been and may hereafter be made to or for the benefit of the Borrower; and

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent entering into the Loan Agreement that Guarantor guaranty the
obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

NOW, THEREFORE, in order to induce the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Loan Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent and each of the other Secured Parties, as a primary
obligor and not merely as a surety, (i) the due, regular and punctual performance of the obligations of the Borrower arising under or pursuant to the Loan Documents and (ii) the due and punctual payment when due of any and all sums which
are now or hereafter imposed on or payable by the Borrower pursuant to any provisions of the Loan Documents, including without limitation all Secured Obligations (all such payment and performance obligations being collectively referred to as
Obligations). Guarantor does hereby further guarantee to pay upon demand all losses, costs, attorneys fees and expenses which may be incurred by reason of any Event of Default.

This Guaranty is a guaranty of prompt payment and performance (and not merely a guaranty of collection). Nothing herein shall require any
Person to first seek or exhaust any remedy against the Borrower, its successors and assigns, or any other person obligated with respect to the Obligations, or to first foreclose, exhaust or otherwise proceed against any collateral or security which
may be given in connection with the Obligations. It is agreed that the Administrative Agent may, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, make demand upon Guarantor and receive payment and performance of the
Obligations,

with or without notice or demand for payment or performance by Guarantor, its successors or assigns, or any other Person. Suit may be brought and maintained against Guarantor, at the
Administrative Agents election, without joinder of the Borrower or any other Person as parties thereto. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, and each other guarantor of the Obligations, shall be joint and several.

Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute, continuing and unconditional, irrespective of and
unaffected by any of the following actions or circumstances (regardless of any notice to or consent of Guarantor): (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity and enforceability of the Loan Documents or any other document; (b) any extension,
renewal, amendment, change, waiver or other modification of the Loan Documents or any other document; (c) the absence of, or delay in, any action to enforce the Guaranty or any other Loan Documents or any other document; (d) the release
of, extension of time for payment or performance by, or any other indulgence granted to the Borrower or any other Person with respect to the Obligations by operation of law or otherwise; (e) the existence, value, condition, loss, subordination
or release (with or without substitution) of, or failure to have title to or perfect and maintain a security interest in, or the time, place and manner of any sale or other disposition of any leased equipment, collateral or security given in
connection with the Obligations, or any other impairment (whether intentional or negligent, by operation of law or otherwise) of the rights of Guarantor; (f) the Borrowers voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of
creditors, reorganization, or similar proceedings affecting the Borrower or any of its assets; or (g) any other action or circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.

This Guaranty, the other Loan Documents and the Obligations may be assigned by the Administrative Agent, without the consent of Guarantor.
Guarantor agrees that if it receives written notice of an assignment from the Administrative Agent, Guarantor will pay all amounts due hereunder to such assignee or as instructed by the Administrative Agent. Guarantor also agrees to confirm in
writing receipt of the notice of assignment as may be reasonably requested by assignee. Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert against any such assignee any of the defenses set forth in the first sentence of the immediate preceding
paragraph.

If (a) the Borrower defaults in the payment or performance of any Obligation, or (b) if there exists any event or
condition which, with notice and/or the passage of time, would constitute an Event of Default (including any default relating to Guarantor or this Guaranty), or (c) any representation or warranty of Guarantor herein or in any certificate,
agreement, statement or document furnished at any time to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties by or on behalf of Guarantor (including without limitation, any financial information), shall prove to be or to have been false
or incorrect in any material respect when made; or (d) Guarantor shall fail to perform or observe any covenant (including without limitation, any financial covenants), condition or agreement required to be performed or observed by it hereunder
or in connection with any Obligation, and such failure shall continue for 30 days after written notice thereof to Guarantor; or (e), or if there is a liquidation, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar proceeding affecting
the status, existence, assets or obligations of Guarantor (each of the foregoing being hereinafter referred to as a Default), then the Obligations of the Borrower shall, at the sole option of the Administrative Agent, be
deemed to be accelerated and become immediately due and

payable by Guarantor for all purposes of this Guaranty, and Guarantor shall (i) immediately pay directly to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties all such Obligations
for the payment of money owing to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties by reason of acceleration or otherwise (including without limitation, any rent, liquidated damages, principal or interest payments or balances, fees, other
installments or any other accrued or unaccrued amounts with respect to such Obligations), irrespective of whether a Default exists relating to the Borrower, and notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing acceleration of any
Obligations against the Borrower, and (ii) promptly perform all other Obligations. Guarantor shall be liable, as principal obligor and not as a surety or guarantor only, for all attorneys fees and other costs and expenses incurred by
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in connection with Administrative Agents enforcement of this Guaranty), together with interest at the Default Rate on all amounts recoverable under this Guaranty, from the time such
amounts become due and payable until the date such payments are received (without duplication). If Administrative Agent is required to return any payment made to Administrative Agent by or on behalf of the Borrower, whether as a result of the
Borrowers bankruptcy, reorganization or otherwise, Guarantor acknowledges that this Guaranty covers all such amounts, notwithstanding that the original of this Guaranty may have been returned to Guarantor and/or otherwise canceled.

This Guaranty may be terminated upon delivery to the Administrative Agent (at the address provided in the Loan Agreement) of a written
termination notice from Guarantor. However, as to all Obligations (whether matured, unmatured, absolute, contingent or otherwise) incurred by the Borrower prior to the Administrative Agents receipt of such written termination notice (and
regardless of any subsequent amendment, extension or other modification which may be made with respect to such Obligations), this Guaranty shall nevertheless continue and remain undischarged until all such Obligations are indefeasibly paid and
performed in full.

Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect or be reinstated (as the case may be) if at
any time payment or performance of any of the Obligations (or any part thereof) is rescinded, reduced or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. If, by reason
of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws effecting the rights of creditors, the Administrative Agent shall be prohibited from exercising any of the Administrative Agents rights or remedies against the Borrower or any other Person or
against any property, then, as between the Administrative Agent and Guarantor, such prohibition shall be of no force and effect, and the Administrative Agent shall have the right to make demand upon, and receive payment from, Guarantor of all
amounts and other sums that would be due to the Administrative Agent upon a default with respect to the Obligations.

Notice of acceptance
of this Guaranty and of any default by the Borrower or any other Person is hereby waived. Presentment, protest demand, and notice of protest, demand and dishonor of any of the Obligations, and the exercise of possessory, collection or other remedies
for the Obligations, are hereby waived. Guarantor warrants that it has adequate means to obtain from the Borrower on a continuing basis financial data and other information regarding the Borrower and is not relying upon the Administrative Agent to
provide any such data or other information. Without limiting the foregoing, notice of adverse change in the Borrowers financial condition or of any other fact which might materially increase the risk of Guarantor is

also waived. All settlements, compromises, accounts stated and agreed balances made in good faith between the Borrower, its successors or assigns, and the Administrative Agent shall be binding
upon and shall not affect the liability of Guarantor.

Payment of all amounts now or hereafter owed to Guarantor by the Borrower or any
other obligor for any of the Obligations is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the indefeasible payment in full to the Administrative Agent of all Obligations and is hereby assigned to the Administrative Agent as a security therefor.
Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and relinquishes all statutory, contractual, common law, equitable and all other claims against the Borrower, any other obligor for any of the Obligations, any collateral therefor, or any other
assets of the Borrower or any such other obligor, for subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, setoff or other recourse in respect of sums paid or payable to the Administrative Agent by Guarantor hereunder, and
Guarantor hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and relinquishes any and all other benefits which it might otherwise directly or indirectly receive or be entitled to receive by reason of any amounts paid by, or collected or due from,
it, the Borrower or any other obligor for any of the Obligations, or realized from any of their respective assets.

GUARANTOR HEREBY
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, THIS GUARANTY, THE OBLIGATIONS GUARANTEED HEREBY, ANY OF THE RELATED DOCUMENTS, ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN US RELATING
TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR THEREOF, AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED BETWEEN US. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS). THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS,
SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS GUARANTY, THE OBLIGATIONS GUARANTEED HEREBY, OR ANY RELATED DOCUMENTS. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS GUARANTY MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

This Guaranty is intended by the parties as a final expression of the guaranty of Guarantor and is also intended as a complete and exclusive
statement of the terms thereof. No course of dealing, course of performance or trade usage, nor any paid evidence of any kind, shall be used to supplement or modify any of the terms hereof. Nor are there any conditions to the full effectiveness of
this Guaranty. This Guaranty and each of its provisions may only be waived, modified, varied, released, terminated or surrendered, in whole or in part, by a duly authorized written instrument signed by the Administrative Agent. No failure by the
Administrative Agent to exercise the Administrative Agents rights hereunder shall give rise to any estoppel against the Administrative Agent, or excuse Guarantor from performing hereunder. The Administrative Agents waiver of any right to
demand performance hereunder shall not be a waiver of any subsequent or other right to demand performance hereunder.

This Guaranty shall be governed by, or construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of
New York (excluding its conflict of laws rules other than Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law). This Guaranty shall bind Guarantors successors and assigns and the benefits thereof shall extend to and include the Administrative
Agents successors and assigns. In addition, if an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may at any time inspect Guarantors records.

Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent as of the date hereof that (i) Guarantors execution, delivery
and performance hereof does not and will not violate any judgment, order or law applicable to Guarantor, or constitute a breach of or default under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other agreement entered into by Guarantor with
Guarantors creditors or any other party; (ii) no approval, consent or withholding of objections is required from any Governmental Authority or any other entity with respect to the execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this
Guaranty; (iii) this Guaranty constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal
debtor relief laws from time to time in effect which affect the enforcement of creditors rights in general and the availability of equitable remedies; (iv) there are no proceedings presently pending or threatened against Guarantor which
will impair its ability to perform under this Guaranty; (v) since the date of Guarantors most recent financial statement, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Guarantor; and (vi) Guarantor is and
will remain in full compliance with all Applicable Laws, except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and it neither is nor shall be (Y) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and
Blocked Person List maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), Department of the Treasury, and/or any other similar lists maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, Executive Order or regulation or
(Z) a Person designated under Section 1(b), (c) or (d) of Executive Order No. 13224 (September 23, 2001), any related enabling legislation or any other similar Executive Orders.

If any provisions of this Guaranty are in conflict with any applicable statute, rule or law, then such provisions shall be deemed null and
void to the extent that they may conflict therewith, but without invalidating any other provisions hereof.

GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS
TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AND TO SETTLE ANY DISPUTES, WHICH MAY ARISE OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH AND WITH THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS (COLLECTIVELY, THE PROCEEDINGS), AND GUARANTOR FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO REMOVE ANY SUCH PROCEEDINGS FROM ANY SUCH COURT (EVEN IF REMOVAL IS SOUGHT TO ANOTHER OF THE ABOVE-NAMED COURTS).
GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MIGHT NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE ABOVE-NAMED COURTS BEING NOMINATED AS THE EXCLUSIVE FORUM TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY SUCH PROCEEDINGS AND AGREES NOT TO CLAIM THAT IT IS NOT PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO
THE JURISDICTION OF THE ABOVE-NAMED COURTS FOR ANY

REASON WHATSOEVER, THAT IT OR ITS PROPERTY IS IMMUNE FROM LEGAL PROCESS FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, THAT ANY SUCH COURT IS NOT A CONVENIENT OR APPROPRIATE FORUM IN EACH CASE WHETHER ON THE GROUNDS
OF VENUE OR FORUM NON-CONVENIENS OR OTHERWISE. GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT BRINGING ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY COURT OTHER THAN THE COURTS SET FORTH ABOVE WILL CAUSE IRREPARABLE HARM TO PAYEE WHICH COULD NOT ADEQUATELY BE COMPENSATED
BY MONETARY DAMAGES, AND, AS SUCH, GUARANTOR AGREES THAT, IN ADDITION TO ANY OF THE REMEDIES TO WHICH PAYEE MAY BE ENTITLED AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT WILL BE ENTITLED TO AN INJUNCTION OR INJUNCTIONS (WITHOUT THE POSTING OF ANY
BOND AND WITHOUT PROOF OF ACTUAL DAMAGES) TO ENJOIN THE PROSECUTION OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDINGS IN ANY OTHER COURT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and Guarantor shall have the right to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction
in the United States of America or abroad for equitable relief as is necessary to preserve, protect and enforce its respective rights under this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to orders of attachment or injunction
necessary to maintain the status quo pending litigation or to enforce judgments against Guarantor, the Borrower or the collateral pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document or to gain possession of such collateral.
