 For purposes of the foregoing: (a) if only one Ratings Agency has assigned a rating to the Loans, the
applicable Category shall be the Category that corresponds to that rating; (b) if more than one Ratings Agency has assigned a rating to the Loans, the applicable Category shall be the Category that corresponds to the highest assigned rating,
unless such ratings differ by two or more levels, in which case the applicable level will be deemed to be the one level below the higher of such levels; (c) if no Ratings Agency has assigned a rating to the Loans, the applicable Category shall
be the Category that corresponds to the corporate family rating of Borrower and its Subsidiaries assigned by one or more Ratings Agencies, if available; (d) if no Ratings Agency has

assigned a rating to the Loans or assigned a corporate family rating to Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the applicable Category shall be Category 4; (e) if none of S&P, Moody’s or
Fitch have assigned a rating, but another Ratings Agency has assigned a rating, the applicable Category shall be determined with reference to the equivalent rating provided by such other Ratings Agency; and (f) if the ratings assigned by any
Ratings Agency to the Loans (or, if applicable at such time, the corporate family rating) shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of such Ratings Agency), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is
first announced by the applicable Ratings Agency, irrespective of when notice of such change shall have been furnished by Borrower to Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Each change in the applicable Category shall apply during the period
commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of any Ratings Agency shall change, Borrower and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith
to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the applicable Category shall be determined by reference to the rating of such Ratings Agency most recently in effect prior to such
change. 
 “Applicable Reserve Requirement” means, at any time, for any LIBO Rate Loan, the maximum rate, expressed as a
decimal, at which reserves (including any basic marginal, special, supplemental, emergency or other reserves) are required to be maintained with respect thereto against “Eurocurrency liabilities” (as such term is defined in Regulation D)
under regulations issued from time to time by the Board of Governors or other applicable banking regulator. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, the Applicable Reserve Requirement shall reflect any other reserves required to be maintained
by such member banks with respect to (a) any category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate or any other interest rate of a Loan is to be determined, or (b) any category of

References herein to any Section, Appendix, Schedule or Exhibit shall be to a Section, an Appendix, a Schedule or an Exhibit, as the case may be, hereof unless otherwise specifically provided. The use herein of the word “include” or
“including”, when following any general statement, term or matter, shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters,
whether or not non-limiting language (such as “without limitation” or “but not limited to” or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to
all other items or matters that fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter. The terms lease and license shall include sub-

  
 43 












 
lease and sub-license, as applicable. A reference to a statute includes all regulations made pursuant to such statute and, unless otherwise specified, the
provisions of any statute or regulation which amends, revises, restates, supplements or supersedes any such statute or any such regulation. In this Agreement, where the terms “continuing”, “continuance” or words to similar effect
are used in relation to a Default or an Event of Default, the terms shall mean only, in the case of a Default, that the applicable event or circumstance has not been waived or, if capable of being cured, cured, prior to the event becoming or
resulting in an Event of Default, and in the case of an Event of Default, that such event or circumstance has not been waived. Unless the context requires otherwise any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein
or in any Financing Document shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified or extended, renewed, replaced or
refinanced (subject to any restrictions or qualifications on such amendments, restatements, amendment and restatements, supplements or modifications or extensions, replacements or refinancings set forth herein).

any such payment obligation or performance of any covenant, duty or obligation to extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day as well). 

1.5    Negative Covenant Compliance and Other Calculations. 

For purposes of determining whether Borrower complies with any exception to Section 6 (Negative Covenants)
(other than the Financial Covenants) where compliance with any such exception is based on a financial ratio or metric being satisfied as of a particular point in time, it is understood that (a) compliance shall be measured at the time when the
relevant event is undertaken, as such financial ratios and metrics are intended to be “incurrence” tests and not “maintenance” tests and (b) correspondingly, any such ratio and metric shall only prohibit Borrower from
creating, incurring, assuming, suffering to exist or making, as the case may be, any new, for example, Liens, Indebtedness or Investments, but shall not result in any previously permitted, for example, Liens, Indebtedness or Investments ceasing to
be permitted hereunder. For avoidance of doubt, with respect to determining whether Borrower complies with any negative covenant in Section 6 (Negative Covenants) (other than the Financial Covenants), to the extent
that any obligation, transaction or action could be attributable to more than one exception to any such negative covenant, Borrower may categorize or re-categorize all or any portion of such obligation,
transaction or action to any one or more exceptions to such negative covenant that permit such obligation, transaction or action.

action to be permitted under this Agreement) shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the
result up or down to the nearest number. 
 1.8    Divisions.

under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original
Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

Rate Loans (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to Administrative Agent). Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of such Borrowing Notice, Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing. 

(iv)    Notice of receipt of each Borrowing Notice in respect of a Loan, together with the applicable interest rate,
shall be provided by Administrative Agent to each Lender 

  
 45 












 
in accordance with Section 9.1(b)(i) (Electronic Communications) with reasonable promptness, but (provided Administrative Agent shall have received such notice by

upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such Loans available to Borrower on the applicable Borrowing Date by causing an amount of immediately available funds equal to
the proceeds of all such Loans received by Administrative Agent from the Lenders to be (x) paid to Borrower’s account specified in the Borrowing Notice or (y) paid directly to the applicable payee’s account as specified by
Borrower in the Borrowing Notice. 
 (iv)    Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or
foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and provided,
further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, each Lender exercising such option shall continue to be required to comply with its obligations under Section 2.18 (Obligation to Mitigate).

(a)    Pro Rata Shares. 

(i)    All Loans shall be made by Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Funding Shares.

 (ii)    No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to
make a Loan in respect of which such other Lender has a Commitment requested hereunder nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a
Loan in respect of which such other Lender has a Commitment requested hereunder. 
 (b)    Availability of Funds.
Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Borrowing Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Borrowing
Date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such Borrowing Date, and Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Borrower a
corresponding amount on such Borrowing Date (any such amount made available by Administrative Agent to Borrower, the “Corresponding Amount”). If such Corresponding Amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such
Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such Corresponding Amount on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon, for each day from such Borrowing Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the


  
 46 












 
customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. In the event that Administrative Agent does not make
available to Borrower a requested amount on the applicable Borrowing Date until such time as all applicable Lenders have made payment to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of a Lender hereunder that is
not made in immediately available funds prior to the time period specified herein and such delay causes Administrative Agent’s failure to fund to Borrower in accordance with its Borrowing Notice, a
non-conforming payment and such Lender shall not receive interest hereunder with respect to the requested amount of such Lender’s Loans for the period commencing with the time specified in this Agreement
for receipt of payment by Borrower through and including the time of Borrower’s receipt of the requested amount. If such Lender does not pay such Corresponding Amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Borrower shall immediately pay such Corresponding Amount to Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such Borrowing Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative
Agent, at the rate payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans for such Loans. Nothing in this Section 2.2(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any
rights that Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender. 
 2.3    Use of
Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans made on any Borrowing Date shall be applied by Borrower as follows: (a) indirectly, to repay outstanding obligations under the EIG NPA, (b) to repay and/or repurchase all or a part of the outstanding
obligations under the 2021 Notes Indenture, and (c) to pay transaction fees, commissions and expenses related to the Financing Documents and the borrowing of the Loans. 

2.4    Evidence of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Notes. 

(a)    Lenders’ Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account
or accounts evidencing the Obligations of Borrower to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower, absent manifest
error; provided that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Commitment or Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any applicable Loans; and provided,
further, that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern. 

(b)    Register. Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed
by it) shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of all Lenders; the Commitment and Loans of each Lender; 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 Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender (with respect to (i) any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans or (ii) the identity of
the other Lenders (but not any information with respect to such other Lenders’ Loans)) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register
the Commitments and the Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations), and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, and any such
recordation shall be conclusive and 

  
 47 












 
binding on Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s
Commitment or Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loan. Borrower hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as Borrower’s non-fiduciary agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register
as provided in this Section 2.4, and Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees”. 

(c)    Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) at
least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to
Section 9.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations)) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after receipt by Borrower of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such
Lender’s Loan. 
 2.5    Interest on Loans. 

(a)    Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the
date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows: 
 (i)    if a Base Rate Loan,
at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or 
 (ii)    if a LIBO Rate Loan, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the
Applicable Margin. 
 (b)    The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan, and the Interest
Period with respect to any LIBO Rate Loan, shall be selected by Borrower and notified to Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be. 

(c)    In connection with LIBO Rate Loans there shall be no more than six Interest Periods outstanding at any time. In the
event Borrower fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a LIBO Rate Loan in the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Loan (if not then outstanding) will be made as (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan will remain
as) a Base Rate Loan, or if outstanding as a LIBO Rate Loan, will be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan. In the event Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any
LIBO Rate Loan in the applicable Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month. As soon as practicable after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on each Interest Rate
Determination Date, Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBO Rate Loans for which an interest rate is
then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and each Lender. 

  
 48 












 (d)    Interest payable pursuant to
Section 2.5(a) shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360 day year, in each case
for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan
being converted from a LIBO Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBO Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect
to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a LIBO Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such LIBO Rate Loan, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest
shall be paid on that Loan. 
 (e)    Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan (i) shall accrue
on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to interest accrued on and to each such payment date; (ii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears upon any prepayment of that
Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (iii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears at maturity, including on the Final Maturity Date; provided, however,
with respect to any voluntary prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, accrued interest shall instead be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date. 

2.6    Conversion/Continuation. 

(a)    Subject to Section 2.15 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans) and so long as no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing. 
 (i)    Borrower shall have the option to
convert at any time all or any part of any Loan, equal to $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided that a LIBO Rate Loan may only be converted on the
expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBO Rate Loan if Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.15 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Loans) in connection with any such conversion; or 

(ii)    in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, Borrower shall have the option upon the expiration of any Interest Period
applicable to any LIBO Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount as a LIBO Rate Loan. 

(b)    Subject to Section 3.3 (Notices), Borrower shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation
Notice to Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three Business Days in advance of the
proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a LIBO Rate Loan). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any LIBO Rate Loans shall be
irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith. If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Borrowing


  
 49 












 
Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest,
then for that day such Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. 
 2.7    Default Interest. If the principal amount
of, any interest on or any fees in respect of the Loans shall not be paid when due, such overdue amount shall bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws) payable on demand at a rate that is 2% per
annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any interest payments or any fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise
payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans); provided that, in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such LIBO Rate Loans shall thereupon
become Base Rate Loans and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest
provided for in this Section 2.7 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or
any Lender. 
 2.8    Fees. 

(a)    Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender who holds remaining undrawn Commitments commitment fees equal to 30% of the
Applicable Margin for LIBO Rate Loans multiplied by the average of the daily amount of remaining outstanding Commitments (the “Commitment Fees”). 

(b)    All Commitment Fees shall be paid to Administrative Agent at its Principal Office, and upon receipt Administrative
Agent shall promptly distribute to each applicable Lender its Pro Rata Funding Share (calculated based on the average of the daily amount of such Lender’s remaining outstanding Commitments over the applicable period) thereof. 

(c)    All Commitment Fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and
the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year during the Availability Period, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing
Date, and on the Commitment Termination Date. 
 (d)    Borrower agrees to pay to the Lenders duration fees (i) on,
and subject to the occurrence of, the first anniversary of the Closing Date, in an amount equal to 0.25% multiplied by the aggregate amount of Commitments as of the earlier to occur of (x) the first Borrowing Date (prior to giving effect to any
Loans made on such date) and (y) 45 days following the Closing Date and (ii) on, and subject to the occurrence of, the second anniversary of the Closing Date, in an amount equal to 0.50% multiplied by the aggregate amount of Commitments as of
the earlier to occur of (x) the first Borrowing Date (prior to giving effect to any Loans made on such date) and (y) 45 days following the Closing Date (the fees payable pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), the “Duration
Fees”). Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the applicable portion of the Duration Fees shall, for the avoidance of doubt, only be payable on and subject to the occurrence of the first and second anniversaries
of the Closing Date, as applicable. 

  
 50 












 (e)    All Duration Fees shall be paid to Administrative Agent at its
Principal Office, and upon receipt Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each applicable Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof based on the Loan Exposure of each such Lender as of the first and second anniversaries of the Closing Date, as
applicable; provided that, solely for purposes of this clause (e), each Lender’s Pro Rata Share shall be calculated without giving effect to any Commitment Increase or Loans made pursuant thereto. 

(f)    In addition to any of the foregoing fees, Borrower agrees to pay to the Agents and to Administrative Agent for the
account of the Lenders such other fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon (including pursuant to the Fee Letters). 

2.9    Repayment. Subject to Sections 2.10(a) (Voluntary Prepayments) and
2.11 (Mandatory Prepayments; Commitment Termination), the principal of, and all other amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Loans shall be paid in full no later than the Final Maturity Date. On each Borrowing Date on which a Loan is
funded, each Lender’s Commitment shall be immediately and without further action reduced by such Lender’s Pro Rata Funding Share of the amount of Loans funded by such Lender on such Borrowing Date. 

2.10    Voluntary Prepayments/Commitment Reductions. 

(a)    Voluntary Prepayments. 

(i)    At any time and from time to time Borrower may, without premium or penalty, prepay Loans on any Business Day in
whole or in part, in an aggregate minimum amount of $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; provided that, in any such case, such minimum amounts shall not apply to a prepayment of all outstanding Loans; 

(ii)    All such prepayments shall be made: 

(A)    upon not less than one Business Day’s prior written or telephonic notice in the case of Base Rate Loans; and

 (B)    upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice in the case of LIBO Rate
Loans; 
 in each case given to Administrative Agent by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date required and, if given by telephone, promptly confirmed
by delivery of written notice thereof to Administrative Agent (and Administrative Agent will promptly transmit such original notice by facsimile or telephone to each applicable Lender). Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the
Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein; provided that such prepayment obligation may be conditioned on the occurrence of any subsequent event (including a refinancing transaction).
Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 2.12(a) (Application of Voluntary Prepayments). 

  
 51 












 (b)    Voluntary Commitment Reductions. 

(i)    Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice promptly confirmed
by delivery of written notice thereof to Administrative Agent (which original written notice Administrative Agent will promptly transmit by facsimile or telephone to each applicable Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or
permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Commitments; provided that any such partial reduction of the Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that
amount. 
 (ii)    Borrower’s notice to Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which shall be a Business
Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in Borrower’s notice and shall reduce the Commitment of each Lender
proportionately to its Pro Rata Funding Share thereof; provided that any such termination or reduction may be conditioned on the occurrence of any subsequent event (including a refinancing transaction). 

(iii)    Reductions of Commitments made pursuant to the final paragraph of Section 2.21
(Increased Commitments) shall not be subject to clauses (i) and (ii) above. 

(c)    Revolving Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, loans and other amounts due under the Revolving
Credit Agreement and RCF Commitments may, from time to time, be voluntarily prepaid, repaid or terminated, as applicable, without requiring a pro rata prepayment and/or termination of Loans or Commitments under this Agreement. 

2.11    Mandatory Prepayments; Commitment Termination. 

(a)    Asset Sales. No later than the fifth Business Day following the date of receipt by Borrower of any Net Asset
Sale Proceeds, Borrower shall prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.12(b) (Application of Mandatory Prepayments) and Section 2.12(e) (Intercreditor) in an aggregate amount equal
to the lesser of (i) such Net Asset Sale Proceeds and (ii) the amount necessary to prepay in full the Loans and pay any other amounts due pursuant to Section 2.12(b) (Application of Mandatory Prepayments)
and Section 2.12(e) (Intercreditor); provided that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower may, upon written notice to Administrative Agent within such five-Business Day
period of its intention to do so, use such Net Asset Sale Proceeds within 365 days of receipt thereof by Borrower to (A) purchase replacement assets or other assets useful to the business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries (including purchases of
Equity Interests or lines of business), (B) otherwise reinvest such Net Asset Sale Proceeds in a Permitted Business or (C) if such Net Asset Sale Proceeds are in respect of any Major Asset Sale, make a Restricted Payment subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6.10 (Restricted Payments), which 365-day period may be extended by an additional 180 days if Borrower shall have provided to Administrative Agent a binding
commitment to make any such purchase or re-investment or Restricted Payment. 

(b)    Net Debt Proceeds. No later than the third Business Day following the date of receipt by Borrower of any Net
Debt Proceeds, Borrower shall prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.12(b) (Application of Mandatory Prepayments) and Section 2.12(e) (Intercreditor) in an aggregate amount equal
to such Net Debt Proceeds. 

  
 52 












 (c)    Changes of Control. No later than the third Business Day
following a Prepayment Change of Control, Borrower shall prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.12(b) (Application of Mandatory Prepayments); provided that if the Loans are rated by at least one Ratings
Agency (or, if the Loans are not rated by any Ratings Agencies, at least one Ratings Agency has assigned a rating to the corporate family of Borrower and its Subsidiaries), then such prepayments shall only be required if a Rating Decline shall have
occurred during the applicable Rating Decline Period. Upon any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.11(c), the Commitments shall be terminated and permanently reduced to zero. 

(d)    Prepayment Certificate. Concurrently with any prepayment of the Loans and/or reduction of the Commitments
pursuant to this Section 2.11, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the calculation of the amount of the applicable net proceeds. In the event that Borrower
shall subsequently determine that the actual amount received exceeded the amount set forth in such certificate, Borrower shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans and/or permanent reduction of the Commitments in an amount equal to
such excess, and Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the derivation of such excess. 

2.12    Application of Prepayments. 

(a)    Application of Voluntary Prepayments. With respect to each prepayment made pursuant to
Section 2.10(a) (Voluntary Prepayments), on the date specified in the notice of prepayment delivered pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) (Voluntary Prepayments), such prepayment of the
Loans shall be applied pro rata to: 
 (i)    the principal of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the Loans to
be prepaid; 
 (ii)    any additional amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.15(c)
(Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods); and 

(iii)    any other Obligations due in connection with any prepayment under the Financing Documents. 

(b)    Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Any amount required to be paid pursuant to
Section 2.11 (Mandatory Prepayments; Commitment Termination) shall be applied pro rata to: 

(c)    (i)    the principal of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the Loans; 

(i)    any additional amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.15(c) (Compensation
for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods); and 

  
 53 












 (ii)    any other Obligations due in connection with any prepayment
under the Financing Documents. 
 (d)    Application of Prepayments of Loans to Base Rate Loans and LIBO Rate
Loans. Any prepayment of the Loans shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof, before application to LIBO Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.15(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods). 

(e)    Intercreditor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent amounts required to
be applied to mandatorily prepay any Obligations pursuant to the terms of Section 2.11 (Mandatory Prepayments; Commitment Termination) and this Section 2.12 also are required to be applied
to mandatorily prepay obligations outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement, such amounts shall be applied pro rata between the applicable Obligations under this Agreement, on the one hand, and the applicable obligations outstanding
and cash collateral requirements under the Revolving Credit Agreement, on the other, in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

2.13    General Provisions Regarding Payments. 

(a)    All payments by Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in immediately available
funds, without reduction, defense, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and, except as otherwise required herein, delivered to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due
at the Principal Office of Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders. 
 (b)    All payments in respect of the
principal amount of any Loan shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments (and, in any event, any payments in respect of any Loan on a date when interest is due and
payable with respect to such Loan) shall be applied to the payment of interest then due and payable before application to principal. 

(c)    Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall
promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due
thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by Administrative Agent. 

(d)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any
Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans, in lieu of its Pro Rata Funding Share of any LIBO Rate Loans, Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter. 

(e)    Subject to the provisos set forth in the definition of “Interest Period”, whenever any payment to be made
hereunder with respect to any Loan shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of
interest hereunder or of the Commitment Fees hereunder. 

  
 54 












 (f)    Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of
Borrower hereunder that is not made in immediately available funds prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by
Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to Borrower and each applicable Lender (confirmed
in writing) if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of
Section 7.1(a) (Failure to Make Payments When Due). Interest and fees shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds
become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the rate determined pursuant to Section 2.7 (Default Interest) from the
date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full. 
 (g)    If an Event of Default shall
have occurred and not otherwise been waived, and the maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 7.1 (Events of Default) or pursuant to any sale of, any collection from, or other
realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, all payments or proceeds received by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in respect of any of the Obligations, shall be applied in accordance with the application arrangements described in
Section 4.1 (Recoveries) of the Collateral Agency Appointment Agreement. 
 2.14    Ratable
Sharing. Lenders hereby agree among themselves that, except as otherwise provided in the Security Documents with respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with respect to Liens on the Collateral, if any of them shall, whether by
voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any
right under the Financing Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and
other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Financing Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect
of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such
payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so
that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is
thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the
extent of such recovery, but without interest. Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, consolidation, set off


  
 55 












 
or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.
The provisions of this Section 2.14 shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising
from the existence of a Defaulting Lender or Disqualified Institution) or (ii) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Obligations owed to it. 

2.15    Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans. 

(a)    Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that Administrative Agent shall have determined
(which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBO Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and
fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted LIBO Rate, Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in
writing) to Borrower and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, LIBO Rate Loans until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Borrower and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such
notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by Borrower with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower. 

(b)    Illegality or Impracticability of LIBO Rate Loans. In the event that on any date (i) any Lender shall
have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that the making, maintaining, converting to or continuation of its LIBO Rate Loans has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lenders
in good faith with any treaty, Government Rule or guideline (or would conflict with any such treaty, Government Rule or guideline not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or
(ii) Administrative Agent is advised by the Requisite Lenders (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that the making, maintaining, converting to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans has become
impracticable or unavailable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the Closing Date which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of the Lenders in that market, then, and in any such event, any Lender
requesting compensation under this Section 2.15 shall be an “Affected Lender” and such Affected Lender shall on that day give notice (by e-mail or by telephone
confirmed in writing) to Borrower and Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). If Administrative Agent receives a notice from (x) any Lender pursuant to
clause (i) of the preceding sentence or (y) a notice from Lenders constituting Requisite Lenders pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, then (1) the obligation of the Lenders (or, in the case of any notice pursuant to
clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Lender) to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by each Affected Lender, (2) to the extent such determination by the
Affected Lender relates to a LIBO Rate Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Borrowing Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Lenders (or in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such
Lender) shall make such Loan as (or continue such Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the 

  
 56 












 
case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (3) the Lenders’ (or in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Lender’s) obligations to maintain their
respective outstanding LIBO Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law and
(4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a LIBO Rate Loan then
being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Borrowing Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.15(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods), to rescind such Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice as to all Lenders by giving written or telephonic notice (promptly confirmed by delivery of
written notice thereof) to Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other
Lender). 
 (c)    Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest
Periods. Borrower shall compensate each Lender, within 30 days of written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest
paid or payable by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBO Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or
re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any LIBO Rate Loan does not
occur on a date specified therefor in a Borrowing Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBO Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic
request for conversion or continuation; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its LIBO Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan; or
(iii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBO Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Borrower. With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under this Section 2.15,
Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than 180 calendar days prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim. 

(d)    Booking of LIBO Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBO Rate Loans at, to, or for the
account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender. 
 (e)    Assumptions Concerning
Funding of LIBO Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.15 and under Section 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) shall be made as though such
Lender had actually funded each of its relevant LIBO Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted LIBO Rate in an amount equal to the amount
of such LIBO Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America;
provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBO Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this
Section 2.15 and under Section 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy). 

  
 57 












 2.16    Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. 

(a)    Compensation for Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender (which term shall include each Agent for purposes of this
Section 2.16(a)) shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (A) the issuance or enactment of any treaty, Government Rule or
guideline, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (regardless of whether the underlying treaty, Government Rule or guideline was issued or enacted prior to the Closing Date), including the introduction
of any new treaty, Government Rule or guideline but excluding solely proposals thereof, or any determination of a Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the Closing Date, or (B) any guideline, request or directive by
any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) or any implementation rules or interpretations of previously issued guidelines, requests or directives, in each case that is issued or
made after the Closing Date (in each case, a “Change in Law”): (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office or Affiliate) or any company controlling such Lender to any additional Tax (other than any Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) and Excluded Taxes) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any
payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or
other reserve), special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other
credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to LIBO Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any company
controlling such Lender; or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any company controlling such Lender or such Lender’s obligations
hereunder or the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost or decrease the yield to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable
by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) hereunder; then, in any such case, Borrower shall pay to such Lender, within 30 days following receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the
form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or in a lump sum or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction
in yield or amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such
Lender under this Section 2.16(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, a Lender shall be entitled to request compensation for
increased costs or expenses described in this Section 2.16(a) only to the extent it is the general practice or policy of such Lender to request such compensation from other borrowers under comparable facilities under
similar circumstances. 

  
 58 












 (b)    Capital Adequacy Adjustment. In the event that any Lender
shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (A) the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, phase in or applicability of any law, rule or regulation
(or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or (B) compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any company controlling such Lender with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) of any
such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, in each case after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any company controlling such Lender as a consequence
of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans, Commitments or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling company could have achieved but for such
introduction, adoption, effectiveness, phase in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling company with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five Business
Days after receipt by Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling company on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional
amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.16(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error. For the avoidance of doubt, for all purposes of the Financing Documents,
subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.16 shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning liquidity and capital adequacy issued or promulgated by (i) any United States or foreign
regulatory authority under or in connection with the implementation of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and (ii) the Bank for International Settlements, the United States regulatory authorities or the Basel
Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority) pursuant to Basel III, regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, no Lender shall
demand compensation pursuant to Section 2.16(b) if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation from similarly situated borrowers. 

(c)    Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a
waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to
the date that such Lender notifies 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). 

  
 59 












 2.17    Taxes; Withholding, Etc. 

(a)    Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by or on behalf of Borrower hereunder and under the other
Financing Documents shall be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax, except to the extent required by law. 

(b)    Withholding of Taxes. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable
Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then: (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding; (ii) the applicable
Withholding Agent shall pay, or cause to be paid, the full amount deducted or withheld to the appropriate Governmental Authority before the date on which penalties attach thereto; and (iii) if the Tax is an Indemnified Tax and unless otherwise
provided in this Section 2.17, the sum payable by Borrower in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of the
deduction, withholding or payment for Indemnified Taxes (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17(b)), the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the
sum it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment for Indemnified Taxes been made. 

(c)    Status of Lenders. 

(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made
under any Financing Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or
Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation
prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(c)(ii)(A), (c)(ii)(B)
and (c)(ii)(D) and 2.17(h) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially
prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

 (A)    any Lender and Agent that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the
Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative
Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

  
 60 












 (B)    any Lender that is not a “United States person” as
defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the
date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(1)    in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect
to payments of interest under any Financing Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable,
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Financing Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to
the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 
 (2)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; 
 (3)    in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio
interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent
shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax
Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or 

(4)    to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY,
accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S.
Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect
partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

(C)    any Lender that is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal
Revenue Code shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under
this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal
withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D)    Société Générale, as Administrative Agent, and any successor or supplemental
Administrative Agent that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall deliver to Borrower, on or prior to the date on 

  
 61 












 
which it becomes a party to this Agreement, two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, with the effect that Borrower may make payments to Administrative
Agent, to the extent such payments are received by Administrative Agent as an intermediary, without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States. 

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered (under this Section 2.17(c) or under
Section 2.17(h)) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(d)    Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.17(b), Borrower shall timely pay all Other
Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of Other Taxes. Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent official receipts or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent in respect of any Other Taxes payable hereunder as soon as practicable after payment of such Other Taxes. 

(e)    Within 30 days after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this
Section 2.17, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. 
 (f)    Borrower shall indemnify
Administrative Agent and any Lender, within ten days after demand therefor, for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (including any such Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this
Section 2.17) payable or paid by Administrative Agent or Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Administrative Agent or Lender and for any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified 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 Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to
Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(g)    If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund, of any
Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an
amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying
party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the
event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an
indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the 

  
 62 












 
payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Taxes
resulting in such indemnification payments or additional amounts and giving rise to such refund had never been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and such indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been
paid. This paragraph (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

(h)    If a payment made to a Lender under any Financing Document would be subject to Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender
were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue
Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied
with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(h), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA
after the date of this Agreement. 
 (i)    Survival. Each party’s obligations under this
Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or
discharge of all obligations under any Financing Document. 
 2.18    Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender
agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender that is directly or indirectly responsible for administering its Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender
to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Sections 2.15 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans), 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.17
(Taxes; Withholding, Etc.), it will (at the request of Borrower), to the extent not inconsistent with any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, fund or maintain its Borrowings, including any
Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or
the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Sections 2.15 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans), 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.17
(Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) would be eliminated or materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such Loans through such other office or in accordance with such other
measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided that such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this
Section 2.18 unless Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by
Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.18 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. 

  
 63 












 2.19    Defaulting Lenders. 

(a)    Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any
Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 

(i)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by
Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 7 (Events of Default) or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a
Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.4 (Set Off) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting
Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to
fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such
Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by
any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to the payment of
any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and
sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if there are outstanding Loans that were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3
(Conditions Precedent) were satisfied or waived, such residual payment shall be applied first to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of
any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their remaining Commitments. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or
held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19(a)(i) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(ii)    Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to
Section 2.8(a) (Fees) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that
Defaulting Lender). 
 (b)    Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower and Administrative Agent agree in writing that
a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent
applicable, purchase at par that portion 

  
 64 












 
of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with
their remaining Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a
Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party
hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 2.20    Removal or Replacement of a
Lender. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased Cost Lender”) shall give notice to Borrower that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender
is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.15 (Making or Maintaining LIBO Rate Loans), 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.), and (ii) such
Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; (b) (i) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender and continues to be a Defaulting Lender, and (ii) such Defaulting
Lender shall fail to cure the default pursuant to Section 2.19(b) (Defaulting Lender Cure) within five Business Days after Borrower’s request that it cure such default; or (c) in connection with any
proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 9.5(b) (Affected Lenders’ Consent), the consent of the
Requisite Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then,
with respect to each such Increased Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), Borrower may, by giving written notice to Administrative Agent and any
Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans and its Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a
“Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations) and Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable thereunder and any other expenses
incurred by Borrower or the Credit Agreement Secured Parties in connection with any such assignment from an Increased Cost Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender or a Defaulting Lender; provided that
(1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender
and (B) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.8 (Fees) (but, in the case of any Defaulting Lender, subject to
Section 2.19(a)(ii) (Certain Fees)); (2) on the date of such assignment, Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.15(c) (Compensation for
Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods), 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) or otherwise, as if it were a prepayment (without
regard to any pro rata payment obligation in respect of any other Loans); (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such
assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender; and (4) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for payment under
Section 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.), or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.),
such assignment will result in a reduction of such payments. Upon the prepayment of all 

  
 65 












 
amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for
purposes hereof; provided that any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. Each Lender agrees that if Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by such
Lender as a Terminated Lender, such Lender shall, promptly after receipt of written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 9.6
(Successors and Assigns; Participations). In the event that a Lender does not comply with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence within one Business Day after receipt of such notice, each Lender hereby authorizes and directs
Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 9.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations) on behalf of a Terminated
Lender and any such documentation so executed by Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 9.6 (Successors and Assigns; Participations). 

2.21    Increased Commitments. Borrower shall have the right, at any time after the Closing Date and
from time to time prior to the earlier of (x) the Commitment Termination Date and (y) the maturity date under the 2021 Notes Indenture, to increase the aggregate Commitments hereunder up to a maximum aggregate amount equal to
$2,750,000,000 (provided that such maximum aggregate amount shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the aggregate amount of Commitments that have been
reduced or cancelled pursuant to Section 2.1(a) (Commitments) or Section 2.10(b) (Voluntary Commitment Reductions) following the Closing Date), by causing one or more Additional
Commitment Lenders (which may include any existing Lender, provided that no existing Lender shall be obligated to increase its Commitment) to provide a (or, in the case of an existing Lender, to increase its) Commitment (each such increase, a
“Commitment Increase”), provided that (i) no Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to become an Additional Commitment Lender and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of each Lender and
(ii) each Additional Commitment Lender shall have entered into an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall provide a Commitment (or,
if such Additional Commitment Lender is an existing Lender, pursuant to which its Commitment shall be increased). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall be effective
unless: 
 (a)    Borrower shall have given Administrative Agent notice of any such increase (x) with respect to
any Commitment Increase occurring on or prior to the earlier of (A) the first Borrowing Date and (B) the date that is 45 days following the Closing Date, at least three Business Days prior to the relevant effective date of such Commitment
Increase or (y) in the case of any other Commitment Increase, at least five Business Days prior to the relevant effective date of such Commitment Increase; 

(b)    no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on such effective date; 

(c)    as of the relevant calculation date immediately prior to such Commitment Increase, prior to and upon giving pro
forma effect to such Commitment Increase, Borrower shall be in compliance with the Financial Covenants; and 

  
 66 












 (d)    as of such date, each of the representations and warranties of
Borrower in the Financing Documents is true and correct in all material respects, except for (A) those representations and warranties that are qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct in all respects, on and as of such date as
if made on and as of such date (or, if stated to have been made solely as of an earlier date, as of such earlier date) and (B) the representations and warranties that are not deemed repeated. 

Each notice under clause (a) above shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by Borrower as to the matters specified in
clauses (b), (c) and (d) above. On the effective date of each Commitment Increase, Administrative Agent may, with the prior written consent of Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), take any and all actions as
may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, after giving effect to such Additional Commitment Lender’s Commitment Increase, the percentage of the aggregate Loans held by each Lender (including each such Additional Commitment Lender) will equal
the percentage of the aggregate Commitments of all Lenders represented by such Lender’s Commitment (which may be accomplished, with the consent of Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (x) by requiring the
outstanding Loans to be prepaid with the proceeds of a new Loan, (y) by causing non-increasing Lenders to assign portions of their outstanding Loans to Additional Commitment Lenders or (z) by a
combination of the foregoing). 
 If any Commitment Increase occurs on or prior to the earlier of (x) the first Borrowing Date and
(y) the date that is 45 days following the Closing Date, the Commitment of any Lender that is a Joint Lead Arranger as of the date of this Agreement may be reduced at the discretion of Borrower, acting in consultation with Administrative Agent
and with the agreement of such Joint Lead Arranger, by an amount no greater than the amount that would result in such Lender’s Commitment equaling $150,000,000; provided that the aggregate of all such reductions of Commitments shall not
exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitment Increases occurring on or prior to such earlier date. Upon any such Commitment Increase and/or Commitment reduction becoming effective, Administrative Agent shall distribute to the Borrower and each
Lender a new Appendix A, which shall replace the existing Appendix A. 
 2.22    Currency
Matters. All Obligations of Borrower under the Financing Documents shall be payable in Dollars. All calculations, comparisons, measurements or determinations under the Financing Documents shall be made in Dollars. 

2.23    Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial
Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Financing Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial
Institution arising under any Financing Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be
bound by: 
 (a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any
such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and 

  
 67 












 (b)    the effects of any
Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 
 (i)    a
reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 
 (ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of,
such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of
ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Financing Document; or 

(iii)    the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion
powers of the applicable Resolution Authority. 
 2.24    Amend and Extend. Borrower may at any time and
from time to time request that all or a portion of the Loans be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount (any Loans which have been so converted,
“Extended Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.24. In order to establish any Extended Loans, Borrower shall provide a notice to Administrative Agent (who shall provide a
copy of such notice to each of Lenders, which such request shall be offered equally to all Lenders) (an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Loans to be established, which shall not be materially
more restrictive to Borrower (as determined in good faith by Borrower), when taken as a whole, than the terms of the Loans, unless (x) the Lenders of the Loans receive the benefit of such more restrictive terms or (y) any such provisions
apply only after the Final Maturity Date (an “Extended Loan Permitted Other Provision”); provided, however, that (i) the scheduled Final Maturity Date shall be extended, (ii) (A) the interest margins with
respect to the Extended Loans may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Loans and/or (B) additional fees and premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Loans in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins
contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, (iii) the Extended Loans may not participate with the existing Loans on a greater than pro rata basis in any voluntary or
mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, and (iv) to the extent that any Extended Loan Permitted Other Provision is added for the benefit of any such Indebtedness, no consent shall be required by any Agent or any of the Lenders if such
Extended Loan Permitted Other Provision is also added for the benefit of any corresponding Loans remaining outstanding after the issuance or incurrence of such Indebtedness or if such Extended Loan Permitted Other Provision applies only after the
Final Maturity Date. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Loans converted into Extended Loans pursuant to any Extension Request; provided that Borrower shall be entitled to exercise its right to remove any Lender
who does not agree to such conversion as a Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to Section 2.20 (Removal or Replacement of a Lender). 

(b)    Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Loans subject to such
Extension Request converted into Extended Loans shall notify Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Loans subject to such Extension Request
that it has elected to convert into Extended Loans. In the event that the aggregate amount of Loans subject to Extension 

  
 68 












 
Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Loans requested pursuant to the Extension Request, Loans subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Loans on a pro rata basis based on
the amount of Loans included in such Extension Election. 
 (c)    Extended Loans shall be established pursuant to an
amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (which, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.24 and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
forth in Section 9.5 (Amendments and Waivers), shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Loans) executed by Borrower, Administrative Agent and the
Extending Lenders. In addition to any terms and changes required or permitted by this Section 2.24 each Extension Amendment may, but shall not be required to, impose additional requirements (not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement in effect at such time) with respect to the final maturity of new Loans incurred following the date of such Extension Amendment. 

(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on any date on which any existing Loans are
converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with this Section 2.24, in the case of the existing Loans of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such existing Loans shall be
deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Loans so converted by such Lender on such date, and the Extended Loans shall be established as a separate class of Loans (together with any other Extended Loans so
established on such date). 
 (e)    Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby (i) consent to the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.24 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any principal, interest, fees, or premium in respect of any Extended Loans on such terms as may be set forth in the
relevant Extension Amendment) and (ii) hereby waive any requirement to obtain the consent of the Requisite Lenders for any Extension Amendment that is effectuated pursuant to Section 2.24(c). 

(f)    No conversion of Loans pursuant to any Extension Amendment in accordance with this
Section 2.24 shall (i) constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement or (ii) be made if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

2.25    Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Financing Documents provide
support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Interest Rate Agreements, Currency Agreements or Commodity Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a
“Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable
notwithstanding that the Financing Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): 

  
 69 












 (a)    In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC
(each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such
Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special
Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act
Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Financing Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised
against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Financing Documents were governed by the laws of the
United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with
respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. 
 (b)    As used in this Section 2.25,
the following terms have the following meanings: 
 (i)    “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an
“affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such part. 

(ii)    “Covered Entity” means any of the following: 

(A)    a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R.
§252.82(b); 
 (B)    a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with,
12 C.F.R. §47.3(b); or 
 (C)    a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in
accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §382.2(b). 
 (iii)    “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to
that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. 

(iv)    “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and
shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).  
 2.26    Effect of Benchmark Transition
Event. 
 (a)    Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other
Financing Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, Administrative Agent and Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with a Benchmark
Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after 

  
 70 












 
Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and Borrower so long as Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment
from Lenders comprising the Requisite Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Requisite Lenders have delivered to
Administrative Agent written notice that such Requisite Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.26 will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark
Transition Start Date. 
 (b)    Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation
of a Benchmark Replacement, Administrative Agent, with the written consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time
and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Financing Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this
Agreement. 
 (c)    Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. Administrative Agent will promptly
notify Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start
Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination,
decision or election that may be made by Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.26, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and
without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.26. 

(d)    Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark
Unavailability Period, Borrower may revoke any request for a LIBO Rate Loan of, conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, Borrower will be deemed
to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of Base Rate based upon Adjusted LIBO Rate will not be used in any determination of Base
Rate.

(a)    The Equity Interests of each of Borrower and each of the Pledged Entities have been duly authorized and validly

Borrower has no contingent liability or liability for Taxes, long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment that is not reflected in the financial statements or the notes thereto and which in any such case is material in relation to the

 77 












 
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (d) Borrower and its Subsidiaries are and have been in compliance with all current Environmental Laws and the requirements of any

obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any of its Contractual Obligations, and no condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to constitute such a default, except where the

other Financing Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this Section 8 are solely for the benefit of the Agents and Lenders and Borrower shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions
thereof. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of the Joint Lead Arrangers, in their capacity as such, shall have any duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Agreement or any other Financing Document nor
any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Joint Lead Arrangers, in such capacity, but each
Joint Lead Arranger, in such capacity, shall be entitled to all benefits of this Section 8. Each of the Joint Lead Arrangers, and any Agent described in clause (d) of the definition thereof appointed to serve in a
similar capacity may resign from such role at any time, with immediate effect, by giving prior written notice thereof to Administrative Agent and Borrower. 

8.2    Powers and Duties. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent (a) to take such action on such
Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Financing Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and
remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto and (b) to enter into all of the Security Documents together with such other documents as shall be necessary to give effect to the Collateral contemplated by the Security


  
 99 












 
Documents, on its behalf. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender agrees to be bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement to the same extent as if it were a party thereto. Each Agent shall
have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Financing Documents. Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. No Agent shall
have, by reason hereof or any of the other Financing Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or any other Person; and nothing herein or any of the other Financing Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so
construed as to impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Financing Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. 

8.3    General Immunity. 

(a)    No Responsibility for Certain Matters. 

(i)    No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity,
enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or any other Financing Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other
statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by any Agent to Lenders or by or on behalf of Borrower to any Agent or any Lender in connection with the Financing Documents and the transactions contemplated
thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of Borrower or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall any Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms,
conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Financing Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default or to make any disclosures with
respect to the foregoing. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans. 

(ii)    No Agent shall 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 Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall not (i) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or
participant or prospective Lender or participant is a Disqualified Institution or (ii) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified
Institution. 
 (b)    Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees
or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any action taken or omitted by any Agent under or in connection with any of the Financing Documents except to the extent caused by such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a
final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection
herewith or any of the other Financing Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Requisite Lenders
(or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 9.5 (Amendments and Waivers)) or, in the case of Collateral Agent, in accordance 

  
 100 












 
with the applicable Security Documents or Intercreditor Agreement, and upon receipt of such instructions from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be) or, in the case of
Collateral Agent, in accordance with the applicable Security Documents or Intercreditor Agreement, such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance
with such instructions, including for the avoidance of doubt refraining from any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture,
modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon
any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of
attorneys (who may be attorneys for Borrower and its Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent
acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Financing Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under
Section 9.5 (Amendments and Waivers)). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to
liability or that is contrary to any Financing Document or applicable law; and no Agent shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Financing Documents, have any duty to disclose, and no Agent shall be liable for the failure to
disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Each Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default
unless and until notice describing such Default is given to such Agent by Borrower or a Lender. 
 (c)    Delegation
of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Financing Document by or through any one or more sub-agents
appointed by Administrative Agent. 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 Affiliates. The
exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of this Section 8.3 and of Section 8.6 (Right to Indemnity) shall apply to any Affiliates of Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (as
applicable) 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 or Collateral Agent (as applicable). 

8.4    Agents Entitled to Act as Lender. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of
the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its participation in the Loans, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other
Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity.
Any Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with any of Borrower’s Affiliates as if it were not performing the
duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders. 

  
 101 












 8.5    Lenders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment.

 (a)    Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial
condition and affairs of Borrower in connection with Borrowings hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower. No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a
continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at
any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders. 

(b)    Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement, an Assignment Agreement and funding its Loan on a
Borrowing Date, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Financing Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, Requisite Lenders or Lenders, as applicable on the Closing Date or
such Borrowing Date, as applicable. 
 (c)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Lender acknowledges
that the Lien and security interest granted to Collateral Agent pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement and each other applicable Security Document and the exercise of any right or remedy by Collateral Agent thereunder are subject to the
provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and that in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and such other Security Document, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. 

8.6    Right to Indemnity. Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify
each Agent, to the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by Borrower, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and
disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Financing
Documents or otherwise in its capacity as such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts
indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided that in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost,
expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided, further, that this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage,
penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence. 

  
 102 












 8.7    Successor Administrative Agent. 

(a)    Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and under the other
Financing Documents at any time by giving thirty days’ prior written notice to Borrower and the Lenders. Administrative Agent may be removed at any time (i) by the Requisite Lenders (x) for such Person’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct or (y) if such Person is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, to the extent permitted by applicable Government Rule or (ii) by Borrower, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders,
for such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event Société Générale is no longer Administrative Agent, any successor Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with cause by the Requisite
Lenders. Any such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent, in accordance with this Section 8.7. 

(b)    Upon any notice of resignation by Administrative Agent or upon the removal of Administrative Agent by the Requisite
Lenders, or by Borrower with the approval of the Requisite Lenders pursuant to Section 8.7(a), the Requisite Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent, hereunder and under each other Financing Document to which
Administrative Agent is a party, which successor Administrative Agent shall (i) be a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus of at least one billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000) and (ii) not be a Disqualified Institution;
provided that, if no Default or Event of Default shall then be continuing, appointment of a successor Administrative Agent shall also be acceptable to Borrower (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The
fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. 

(c)    If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed by the Requisite Lenders within thirty days after the date
such notice of resignation was given by such resigning Administrative Agent, or the Requisite Lenders elected to remove such Person, any Credit Agreement Secured Party may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Administrative Agent. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, who shall serve as Administrative Agent hereunder and under each other Financing Document to which
it is a party until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent, as provided above. 

(d)    Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall
succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent, and the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations
hereunder or under the other Financing Documents. After the retirement or removal of Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Documents, the provisions of this Section 8 and
Section 9.3 (Indemnity) shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring (or removed) Person, its sub-agents and their respective Agent Affiliates in respect of any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Person was acting in its capacity as Administrative Agent. 

  
 103 












 8.8    Security Documents. 

(a)    Agents under Security Documents. Each Credit Agreement Secured Party hereby further authorizes Administrative
Agent to (or to authorize the Collateral Agent to, as applicable), on behalf of and for the benefit of the Credit Agreement Secured Parties, (i) be the agent for and representative of the Credit Agreement Secured Parties with respect to the
Collateral and the Security Documents, to enter into the Security Documents on behalf of the Credit Agreement Secured Parties, and to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent and to
Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Agency Appointment Agreement and the other Security Documents, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto, (ii) enter into the
Intercreditor Agreement and (iii) acknowledge its consent, as may be necessary under each applicable jurisdiction, to the granting of the first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) pursuant to each of the Security Documents;
provided that Administrative Agent shall not owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of First Lien Obligations other than the Obligations. Subject to the
provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and Section 9.5 (Amendments and Waivers), without further written consent or authorization from any Credit Agreement Secured Party, Administrative Agent may (or may authorize
the Collateral Agent to, as applicable) execute any documents or instruments necessary to, in connection with a sale or disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement, release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of
such sale or other disposition of assets or to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 9.5 (Amendments and Waivers)) have otherwise consented. Without
limiting the foregoing, each Credit Agreement Secured Party hereby agrees to provide such cooperation and assistance as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to facilitate and effect actions taken or intended to be
taken by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, including execution and delivery of notices, instruments and other documents as are reasonably deemed necessary by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to effect such actions, and
joining in any action, motion or proceeding initiated by Collateral Agent (at the instruction of Administrative Agent) for such purposes. 

(b)    Right to Realize on Collateral. Anything contained in any of the Financing Documents to the contrary
notwithstanding, Borrower, and subject at all times to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, Administrative Agent and each Credit Agreement Secured Party, hereby agree that (i) no Credit Agreement Secured Party shall have any right
individually to realize upon any of the Collateral, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Financing Documents may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as
applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in
accordance with the terms thereof; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws, any Credit Agreement Secured Party may file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the
Obligations owed to the Credit Agreement Secured Parties; (B) any Credit Agreement Secured Party may take any action to preserve or protect the validity and enforceability of the Liens granted in favor of Secured Parties, provided that
no such action is, or could reasonably be expected to be, (x) adverse, in any material respect, to the Liens granted in favor of the Secured Parties or the rights of Collateral Agent, Administrative Agent or any other


  
 104 












 
Secured Parties to exercise remedies in respect thereof or (y) otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents and (C) any Credit Agreement Secured
Party may file any responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of such Credit Agreement Secured
Party, including any claims secured by the Collateral, in each case, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents; (ii) subject at all times to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement,
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to instruct Collateral Agent to and Collateral Agent (at the instruction of Administrative Agent) shall be entitled, for the benefit of the Credit Agreement Secured Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of or deal with any Collateral as provided in this Agreement and in the Security Documents; and (iii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or
private sale or other disposition (including pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(A)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), Collateral Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to
Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(A)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code,) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative
of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from Administrative Agent at the instruction of the Requisite Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making
settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by Collateral
Agent at such sale or other disposition. 
 (c)    [Reserved]. 

(d)    Release of Collateral; Termination of Financing Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein or any other Financing Document, subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the occurrence of the Discharge of Obligations, upon request of Borrower, Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent (as applicable)
shall take such actions (or shall direct Collateral Agent to take such actions) as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral. 

(e)    Collateral 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 Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by or on behalf of Borrower in connection therewith, nor shall
Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 

8.9    Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, Administrative Agent may withhold
from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of
any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax
ineffective or for any other reason, or if Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant 

  
 105 












 
to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by
Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and
out-of-pocket expenses) incurred. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Financing Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other
source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this Section 8.9. 

8.10    Administrative Agent May File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of
any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws relative to Borrower, 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
Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a)    to file a verified statement pursuant to rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure that, in its sole
opinion, complies with such rule’s disclosure requirements for entities representing more than one creditor; 

(b)    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 Administrative Agent, including any claim for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.8 (Fees), 9.2 (Expenses) and 9.3
(Indemnity) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (c)    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 Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the
Lenders to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under
Sections 2.8 (Fees), 9.2 (Expenses) and 9.3 (Indemnity). To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent, its agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.8 (Fees), 9.2 (Expenses) and 9.3 (Indemnity) hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied
for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Lenders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in
liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. 

  
 106 












 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize 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 or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in
any such proceeding. 
 8.11    Certain ERISA Matters. 

(a)    Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and
(y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and each of their
respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true: 

(i)    such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Employee Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans or the Commitments; 

(ii)    the prohibited transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for
certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions
involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable so as to exempt from the prohibitions of ERISA Section 406 and Code Section 4975, such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and
performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement; 
 (iii)    (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed
by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and
perform the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of
sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such
Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement; or 

(iv)    such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between Administrative Agent, in its
sole discretion, and such Lender. 
 (b)    In addition, unless
sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the
date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person 

  
 107 












 
ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and each of their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of
doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower, that none of Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers or their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender (including in connection with the
reservation or exercise of any rights by Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Financing Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto). 

SECTION 9.    MISCELLANEOUS. 

9.1    Notices. 

(a)    Notices Generally. Any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given to Borrower,
Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent shall be sent to such Person’s address as set forth on Appendix B or in the other relevant Financing Document, and in the case of any Lender, the address as indicated on Appendix B or
otherwise indicated to Administrative Agent in writing. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 3.3 (Notices) or paragraph (b) below, each notice hereunder shall be in writing and may be personally served or
sent by facsimile (except for any notices sent to Administrative Agent) or United States mail or courier service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by courier service and signed for against receipt thereof, upon
receipt of facsimile, or three Business Days after depositing it in the United States mail with postage prepaid and properly addressed; provided that no notice to any Agent shall be effective until received by such Agent; provided,
further, that any such notice or other communication shall at the request of Administrative Agent be provided to any sub-agent appointed pursuant to Section 8.3(c)
(Delegation of Duties) hereto as designated by Administrative Agent from time to time. 
 (b)    Electronic
Communications. 
 (i)    Notices and other communications to the Agents and each Lender hereunder may be delivered
or furnished by electronic communication (including email and Internet or intranet websites, including the Platform) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Agent
or any Lender pursuant to Section 2 (Loans) if such Person has notified Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Section by electronic communication. Administrative Agent or Borrower
may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or
communications. Unless Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an
acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or
other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or
communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of
notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. 

  
 108 












 (ii)    Borrower understands that the distribution of material through
an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution and agrees and assumes the risks associated with such electronic distribution, except to the extent caused by the
willful misconduct or gross negligence of Administrative Agent, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(iii)    The Platform and any Approved Electronic Communications are provided “as is” and “as
available”. None of the Agents or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or representatives (the “Agent Affiliates”) warrant the accuracy, adequacy, or completeness of the Approved Electronic
Communications or the Platform and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Platform and the Approved Electronic Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects is made by the Agent Affiliates in connection with the Platform or the
Approved Electronic Communications. 
 (iv)    Borrower, each Lender and each Agent agrees that Administrative Agent
may, but shall not be obligated to, store any Approved Electronic Communications on the Platform in accordance with Administrative Agent’s customary document retention procedures and policies. 

(v)    Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of receipt of each notice or request required or
permitted to be given to Administrative Agent by Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Financing Document (unless concurrently delivered to the Lenders by Borrower). 

(vi)    Any notice of Default or Event of Default may be provided by telephone if confirmed promptly thereafter by
delivery of written notice thereof. 
 (c)    Private Side Information Contacts. Each Public Lender agrees to
cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender
or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States federal and state securities laws, to make reference to information that is not made available through the “Public
Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain Non-Public Information with respect to Borrower, its Affiliates or their respective Securities for purposes of United States federal or state
securities laws. In the event that any Public Lender has determined for itself to not access any information disclosed through the Platform or otherwise, such Public Lender acknowledges that (i) other Lenders may have availed themselves of such
information and (ii) neither Borrower nor Administrative Agent has any responsibility for such Public Lender’s decision to limit the scope of the information it has obtained in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing
Documents.

  
 109 












 9.2    Expenses. Whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower agrees to pay promptly (a) all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower required to be delivered by this Agreement; (b) the actual, reasonable and documented fees and
expenses of advisors to the Agents (including legal fees, expenses and disbursements of Norton Rose Fulbright US LLP, one local counsel to Agents in each jurisdiction in which security over property of Borrower has or will be granted in connection
with the Financing Documents; provided that in the event of an actual or potential conflict of interest, the affected Agents shall be entitled to reimbursement of the actual, reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of one
additional counsel) in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and administration of the Financing Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and any other documents or matters requested by
Borrower; (c) all the actual, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses of creating, perfecting, recording, maintaining and preserving

(e) all the actual, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any
appraisers, consultants, advisors and agents employed or retained by Collateral Agent and its counsel) in connection with the custody or preservation of any of the Collateral; (f) all other actual, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by each Agent in connection with the syndication of the Loans and Commitments and the transactions contemplated by the Financing
Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto; and (g) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, all actual, documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of one counsel and, to the extent
applicable, any other local counsel reasonably necessary, incurred by any Agent and the Lenders in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from Borrower hereunder or under the other Financing Documents by reason of such
Default or Event of Default (including in connection with the sale, lease or license of, collection from, or other realization upon any of the Collateral) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided
hereunder in the nature of a “work out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings; provided that in the event of an actual or potential conflict of interest, the affected Agents and Lenders shall be entitled
to reimbursement of the actual, reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of one additional counsel. This Section 9.2 shall not apply with respect to Taxes that are imposed with respect to payments to or
for the account of any Agent or any Lender under any Financing Document which are covered by Section 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) or that are specifically excluded from the scope of
Section 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.). 
 9.3    Indemnity. 

(a)    In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 9.2 (Expenses), whether
or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless, each Agent and Lender and each of their and their Affiliates’
respective officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors, employees, attorneys, agents, sub-agents, affiliates, administrators, managers, representatives and controlling Persons (each, an
“Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided that Borrower shall not have any obligation to any 

  
 110 












 
Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or material
breach of such Indemnitee’s express obligations hereunder, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertakings to
defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 9.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion that it
is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnitee, or
insufficient to hold it harmless, then Borrower will contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee, as applicable, as a result of such Indemnified Liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic
interests of (i) Borrower and its Affiliates, shareholders, partners, members or other equity holders on the one hand and (ii) such Indemnitee on the other hand with respect to the transactions under the Financing Documents, as well as the
relative fault of (x) Borrower and its Affiliates, shareholders, partners, members or other equity holders and (y) such Indemnitee with respect to such Indemnified Liability. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of
Borrower under this Section 9.3 will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have, and will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of
Borrower, the Indemnitees, any such Affiliate and any such Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any indemnified party for losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising solely out of disputes as between
the indemnified parties that are not based on any act or omission of Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, excluding any disputes against any Joint Lead Arranger, Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent or any similar role under this
Agreement, acting in such capacity. 
 (b)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower shall not assert, and
Borrower hereby waives, any claim against each Indemnitee on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or
duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to
herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any
such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. Other than with respect the obligations of Borrower pursuant to Section 9.3(a), to the extent permitted by
applicable law, no Lender or Agent shall assert, and each Lender and Agent hereby waives, any claim against Borrower and its Affiliates, officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors employees, attorneys, agents, sub-agents or controlling Persons, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based
on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or
thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and no Lender and Agent hereby waives, releases
and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. 

  
 111 












 (c)    Borrower also agrees that no Indemnitee will have any liability,
based on its or their exclusive or contributory negligence or otherwise, to Borrower (or its Affiliates) or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of Borrower (or its Affiliates) or any other Person in connection with or as a result of
this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or
omission or event occurring in connection therewith, in each case, except to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by Borrower or its affiliates, shareholders, partners or other equity holders have been found
by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of its express obligations under the Financing
Documents by, such Indemnitee in performing its obligations under this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein; provided, however, that in no
event will such Indemnitee have any liability for any indirect, consequential, special or punitive damages in connection with or as a result of such Indemnitee’s activities related to this Agreement or any Financing Document or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnitee for any Indemnified Liabilities arising solely out of disputes as between the
Indemnitees that are not based on any act or omission of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, excluding any disputes against any Agent acting in such capacity. 

(d)    Promptly after receipt by any Lender or Agent of notice of its involvement in any action, proceeding or
investigation, such Lender or Agent will, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against Borrower under this Section 9.3, notify Borrower in writing of such involvement. Failure by any Lender or
Agent to so notify Borrower will not relieve Borrower from the obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees under this Section 9.3 except to the extent that Borrower suffers actual prejudice as a result of such failure, and will
not relieve Borrower from its obligation to provide reimbursement and contribution to such Lenders or Agents. 
 This
Section 9.3 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent Indemnified Liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim. 

9.4    Set Off. 

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of
any Event of Default each Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower at any time or from time to time, without notice to Borrower or to any other Person (other than Administrative Agent), any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to
appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any time
held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of Borrower to such Lender hereunder and under the other Financing Documents,


  
 112 












 
including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto or with any other Financing Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) such Lender shall have made any
demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 (Loans) and although such obligations and
liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent
for further application in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.14 (Ratable Sharing) and 2.19 (Defaulting Lenders) and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from
its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to
such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 9.4 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that
such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Failure of any Lender to give notice of any such setoff and application to Administrative Agent shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 

9.5    Amendments and Waivers. 

(a)    Requisite Lenders’ Consent. Subject to the additional requirements of
Sections 9.5(b) (Affected Lenders’ Consent) and 9.5(c) (Other Consents), no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Financing Documents, or consent to
any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Requisite Lenders; provided that Administrative Agent may, with the consent of Borrower only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement
or any other Financing Document (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent), so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any
Lender or the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the
Requisite Lenders stating that the Requisite Lenders object to such amendment, (ii) to enter into additional or supplemental Security Documents, (iii) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Lenders,
(iv) to make, complete or confirm any grant of Collateral permitted or required by any of the Security Documents, including to secure any Indebtedness that is permitted under Section 6.1 (Indebtedness) that may
be secured by a Permitted Lien on the Collateral, or any release of any Collateral that is otherwise permitted under the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents, (v) to revise any schedule to reflect any change in notice information,
(vi) to revise the name of the Collateral Agent on any UCC financing statement or other Security Document as may be necessary to reflect the replacement of the Collateral Agent or (vii) to amend this Agreement or the other Financing
Documents in order to effectuate the last paragraph of “Adjusted LIBO Rate”. 
 (b)    Affected
Lenders’ Consent. No amendment, modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would: 

(i)    extend any Commitment or the scheduled final maturity date of any Loan or Note without the written consent of the
Lender holding such Commitment, Loan or Note; 

  
 113 












 
provided that no amendment, modification or waiver of any condition precedent, covenant, Default or Event of Default shall constitute an extension of a Commitment or a final maturity date;

 (ii)    waive, reduce or postpone repayment (but not voluntary prepayment or mandatory prepayment, which shall be
governed by Section 9.5(a) (Requisite Lenders’ Consent)) of any Loan beyond its maturity date without the written consent of the Lender holding such Loan; 

(iii)    reduce the rate of interest on any Loan (other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable
to any Loan pursuant to Section 2.7 (Default Interest)), any premium or any fee payable to a Lender under this Agreement or any other Financing Document without the written consent of the Lender to which such
interest, premium or fee is payable hereunder; 
 (iv)    extend the time for payment of any interest, fees or premium
payable to a Lender under this Agreement or any other Financing Document (but not voluntary prepayment or mandatory prepayment, which shall be governed by Section 9.5(a) (Requisite Lenders’
Consent)) without the written consent of the Lender to which such interest, fee or premium is payable (it being understood that the waiver of any mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an extension of any time for payment of interest or fees
unless expressly agreed in such waiver); 
 (v)    reduce the principal amount of any Loan without the written consent
of the Lender to which such Loan is payable; 
 (vi)    amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of this
Section 9.5(b), Section 9.5(c) (Other Consents) or any other provision of this Agreement that expressly provides that the consent of all Lenders is required, without the written consent of
all Lenders; 
 (vii)    amend the definition of “Requisite Lenders”, “Loan
Exposure”, “Pro Rata Share” or “Pro Rata Funding Share” without the written consent of all Lenders; 

(viii)    amend the provisions of Section 2.8 (Fees),
Section 2.12 (Application of Prepayments), Section 2.13(c) (General Provisions Regarding Payments), Section 2.13(d) (General Provisions Regarding
Payments), Section 2.13(g) (General Provisions Regarding Payments), Section 2.14 (Ratable Sharing), clause (x) of the proviso in Section 9.4 (Set
Off), Section 4.1 (Recoveries) of the Collateral Agency Appointment Agreement or Section 2.01 (Priority of Claims) of the Intercreditor Agreement, in each case, in a manner that would by its terms alter the pro rata
sharing of payments required thereby without the consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby; 
 (ix)    release
all or substantially all of the Collateral except as expressly provided in the Financing Documents and except in connection with a “credit bid” undertaken by Collateral Agent at the direction of the Requisite Lenders pursuant to section
363(k), section 1129(b)(2)(A)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code or other sale or disposition of assets in connection with an enforcement action with respect to the Collateral permitted pursuant to the Financing Documents (in which case only
the consent of the Requisite Lenders will be needed for such release), without the written consent of all Lenders; or 

  
 114 












 (x)    consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its
rights and obligations under any Financing Document, without the written consent of all Lenders; 
 provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, all
Lenders shall be deemed directly affected thereby with respect to any amendment described in clauses (vi), (vii) and (ix). 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or
consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent that by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the
Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, or the maturity of any of its Loan may not be extended, the rate of interest on any of its Loans may not be reduced and the principal amount of any of its Loans may not be
forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender materially and more
adversely than the other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 
 (c)    Other
Consents. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Financing Documents, or consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall: 

(i)    increase any Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender;
provided that no amendment, modification or waiver of any condition precedent, covenant, Default or Event of Default shall constitute an increase in any Commitment of any Lender; or 

(ii)    amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of the Financing Documents as the same applies to any Agent, or
any other provision hereof as the same applies to the rights or obligations of any Agent, in each case without the consent of such Agent, as applicable. 

(d)    Execution of Amendments, Etc. Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the
concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or
demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this
Section 9.5 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by Borrower, on Borrower. 

9.6    Successors and Assigns; Participations. 

(a)    Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and
permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto 

  
 115 












 
and the successors and permitted assigns of Lenders. Neither Borrower’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by Borrower without the prior
written consent of all Lenders. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly
contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents and Lenders and other Indemnitees) any benefit, legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

(b)    Register. Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in
the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error. No assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan
shall be effective, in each case, unless and until recorded in the Register following receipt of a fully executed Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof, together with the required forms and certificates regarding tax
matters and any fees payable in connection with such assignment, in each case, as provided in Section 9.6(d) (Mechanics). Each assignment shall be recorded in the Register promptly following receipt by Administrative
Agent of the fully executed Assignment Agreement and all other necessary documents and approvals, prompt notice thereof shall be provided to Borrower and a copy of such Assignment Agreement shall be maintained, as applicable. The date of such
recordation of a transfer shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective Date.” Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the
Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans. 

(c)    Right to Assign. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligations (provided, however, that pro rata assignments shall not be required and each assignment shall be
of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Loan and any related Commitments): 

(i)    to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (a) of the definition of the term of “Eligible
Assignee” upon the giving of notice to Borrower and Administrative Agent, provided that, in the case of any assignment of Commitments pursuant to this clause (i), the assignee shall have the Required Rating; and 

(ii)    to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (b) of the definition of the term of “Eligible
Assignee” (or not satisfying the Required Ratings requirement in clause (i) above) upon giving of notice to Borrower and Administrative Agent and consented to by each of Borrower and Administrative Agent (each such consent not to be
(x) unreasonably withheld or delayed or, (y) in the case of Borrower, required at any time an Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.1(a) (Failure to Make Payments When Due),
Section 7.1(f) (Involuntary Bankruptcy; Appointment of Receiver, Etc.) or Section 7.1(g) (Voluntary Bankruptcy; Appointment of Receiver, Etc.) shall have occurred and then be
continuing); provided, further, that (A) Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received
notice thereof and 

  
 116 












 
(B) each such assignment pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by
Borrower and Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Commitments and Loans of the assigning Lender) with respect to the assignment of the Commitments and Loans. 

(d)    Mechanics 

(i)    Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Commitments by Lenders shall be effected by manual execution and delivery
to Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Effective Date. In connection with all assignments there shall be delivered to Administrative Agent such
forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to withholding tax matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.17(c) (Status of Lenders),
together with payment to Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable in the case of an assignee which is already a Lender or is an affiliate or Related
Fund of a Lender or a Person under common management with a Lender). 
 (ii)    In connection with any assignment of
rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to
Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with
the consent of Borrower and Administrative Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Funding Share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to
(x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata
Funding Share of all Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this
paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 

(e)    Representations and Warranties of Assignee. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon
succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the Assignment Effective Date that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in
the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Commitments or Loans, as the case may be; (iii) it will make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitments or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and
without a view to distribution of such Commitments or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this
Section 9.6, the disposition of such Commitments or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control); and (iv) it will not provide any information (other than customary
administrative information) obtained by it in its capacity as a Lender to Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower. 

  
 117 












 (f)    Effect of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions
of this Section 9.6, as of the “Assignment Effective Date” (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder and under the other Financing Documents to the extent
of its interest in the Loans and Commitments as reflected in the Register and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and
obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under Section 9.8 (Survival of Representations, Warranties and
Agreements)) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on
the Assignment Effective Date; provided that anything contained in any of the Financing Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified
herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect any Commitment of such assignee and any Commitment of such assigning Lender, if
any; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to
Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the
new Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender. 
 (g)    Participations.

 (i)    Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations without restriction to any
Person (other than Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates, any natural Person or any Disqualified Institution) in all or any part of its Commitments, Loans, or any other Obligation. Each Lender that sells a
participation pursuant to this Section 9.6(g) shall, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it records
the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s participation interest with respect to the Commitments, Loans and other Obligations (each, a “Participant
Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s
interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Financing Document) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such
Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under United States Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) and Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) (or, in each case, any amended or successor
version). Unless otherwise required by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. 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 the applicable participation for all purposes under this Agreement, notwithstanding any
notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

  
 118 












 (ii)    The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate
of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (A) extend the final scheduled maturity
of any Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post default increase in interest rates) or
reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the
Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a
result thereof), (B) consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Security Documents (except as expressly
provided in the Financing Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating. 

(iii)    Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.15(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods), 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) and 2.17 (Taxes;
Withholding, Etc.) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 9.6; provided that (x) a participant shall not be
entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy) or 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with
respect to the participation sold to such participant, (A) 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 or
(B) unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (y) a participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of
Section 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) unless such participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.) and provide all forms
required by Section 2.17(c) (Status of Lenders) as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the forms required by Section 2.17(c) (Status of Lenders) shall be delivered to
the participating Lender) and (z) a participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.18 (Obligation to Mitigate) and 2.20 (Removal or Replacement of a Lender) as if it were an
assignee under paragraph (c) of this Section; provided, further, that, except as specifically set forth in clauses (x) and (y) of this sentence, nothing herein shall require any notice to Borrower or any other Person in
connection with the sale of any participation. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.4 (Set-Off) as though it
were a Lender, provided such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.14 (Ratable Sharing) as though it were a Lender. 

(h)    Certain Other Assignments and Participations. In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted
pursuant to this Section 9.6 any Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations
of such Lender including any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank; provided that no Lender, as
between Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee, be considered
to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder. 

  
 119 












 (i)    Disqualified Institutions. 

(i)    No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the
“Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless Borrower has consented to such assignment or
participation in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee
that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified
Institution”), (x) such assignee shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and (y) the execution by Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee
no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment or participation in violation of this clause (i)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (i) shall apply. 

(ii)    If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Institution without Borrower’s prior written
consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and
Administrative Agent, (A) terminate the Commitment of such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such Commitment and/or (B) require such Disqualified
Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lesser of (x) the
principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable
to it hereunder. 
 (iii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified
Institutions (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by Borrower, Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders
and Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any
consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to any Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Financing
Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any Debtor Relief Plan, each
Disqualified Institution party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such Debtor Relief Plan, (2) if such Disqualified Institution does vote on such Debtor Relief Plan notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1),
such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in 

  
 120 












 
any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such Debtor Relief Plan in accordance with
Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent
jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2). 
 (iv)    Administrative Agent shall have the right, and
Borrower hereby expressly authorizes Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) on the Platform,
including that portion of the Platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender requesting the same. 

9.7    Independence of Covenants. 

All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such
covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. Any
determination regarding whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred or is existing or continuing under this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall be made by Borrower and the Requisite Lenders (or Administrative Agent) to the
extent such Default or Event of Default, if it had occurred, would be waivable by the Requisite Lenders pursuant to Section 9.5 (Amendments and Waivers) hereof. The Lenders shall act collectively through
Administrative Agent with respect to all such determinations; provided that the Requisite Lenders may direct Administrative Agent with respect to any such determination; provided, further, that the foregoing shall not in any
manner prohibit any Lender from communicating with any other Lender or with Administrative Agent regarding any such actual or claimed Event of Default, Default, default, event or condition, what action Borrower has taken, is taking, or proposes to
take with respect thereto, the terms and conditions of any amendment or waiver with respect to such Default or Event of Default or any other matter relating to Borrower or any Financing Document. 

9.8    Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. 

All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Borrowing.
Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of Borrower set forth in Sections 2.15(c) (Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of
Interest Periods), 2.16 (Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy), 2.17 (Taxes; Withholding, Etc.), 9.2 (Expenses), 9.3 (Indemnity), 9.4 (Set-Off),
9.7 (Independence of Covenants) and 9.23 (No Fiduciary Duty) and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.14 (Ratable Sharing), 8.3(b) (Exculpatory Provisions) and
8.6 (Right to Indemnity) shall survive the payment of the Loans and the termination hereof. 

9.9    No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. 

No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other
Financing Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any 

  
 121 












 
single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to
each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Financing Documents. Any forbearance or failure
to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

 9.10    Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. 

Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Borrower or any other Person or against or in
payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that Borrower makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or any Agent or Lender enforces any security interests or
exercises any right of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a
trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all
Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. 

9.11    Severability. 

In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Financing Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Without limiting the foregoing
provisions of this Section 9.11, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by
Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited. 

9.12    Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. 

The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender
hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Financing Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a Joint Venture or any other kind of entity.
The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and (subject to the provisions hereof) enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be
necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. 

  
 122 












 9.13    Headings. 

Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or
be given any substantive effect. 
 9.14    APPLICABLE LAW.

UNCONDITIONALLY THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS (OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO ACTIONS BY ANY AGENT IN RESPECT OF RIGHTS UNDER ANY SECURITY AGREEMENT GOVERNED BY A LAWS OTHER THAN THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR WITH RESPECT TO
ANY COLLATERAL SUBJECT THERETO); (B) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; (C) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO SUCH
PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 9.1 (NOTICES); (D) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (C) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER SUCH PARTY IN ANY
SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT; AND (E) IN THE CASE OF BORROWER ONLY, AGREES THAT AGENTS AND LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY
LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST BORROWER IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS UNDER ANY SECURITY DOCUMENT OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT. BORROWER, FOR ITSELF AND ITS AFFILIATES, AGREES THAT A
FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. 

  
 123 












 9.16    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR
ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED
TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.
EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS
RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS
WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 9.16 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY
TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED
AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT. 
 9.17    Confidentiality. 

Each Agent and each Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding Borrower and its
Subsidiaries and Affiliates and their respective businesses identified as such by Borrower and obtained by such Agent or such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Agent’s and such Lender’s customary procedures
for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by Borrower that, in any event, Administrative Agent may disclose such information to the Lenders and each Agent and each Lender and each Agent may make
(a) disclosures of such information to Affiliates of such Lender or Agent and to their respective officers, directors, partners, members, employees, representatives, administrators, managers, legal counsel, independent auditors, insurers and
other experts, agents, trustees and advisors (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this
Section 9.17) who need to know such information and on a confidential basis, (b) disclosures of 

  
 124 












 
such information reasonably required by any potential or prospective assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or
any participations therein, by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Borrower and its obligations under the Loans or any potential providers of
credit protection, in each case, who are advised of the confidential nature of such information, (c) disclosure to any rating agency on a confidential basis; provided that such information is supplied to such rating agency after
consultation with Administrative Agent, (d) disclosure on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans, (e) disclosures in
connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Financing Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Financing Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder,
(f) disclosures to the extent that such information is publicly available or becomes publicly available other than by reason of improper disclosure by such Person, (g) disclosures received by a Person on a
non-confidential basis from a source (other than the disclosing party or any of its affiliates, advisors, members, directors, employees, agents or other representatives) not known by such Person to be
prohibited from disclosing such information to such Person by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation, (h) disclosures to the extent that such information was already in the disclosing party’s possession or is independently developed
by the disclosing party, (i) with respect to the Joint Lead Arrangers only, disclosures for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense, (j) disclosures to market data collectors and similar services providers in the
lending industry, and service providers to Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of the Loans, (k) disclosures required or requested by any court, administrative or
governmental agency, body, committee or representative thereof or pursuant to applicable law or legal, administrative or judicial process, or pursuant to a subpoena or order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, in which case such Person
agrees to inform Borrower promptly thereof to the extent permitted by applicable law, (l) disclosures upon the request or demand of any regulatory or quasi-regulatory authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners) purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or any of its Affiliates, (m) disclosures to any other party hereto or to Collateral Agent in its capacity as such, (n) disclosures subject to an
agreement containing provisions substantially the same as (or more stringent than) those set forth in this Section 9.17 and (o) disclosures with the consent of Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
forth herein, each party (and each of their respective employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all Persons without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to any such party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. However, any information relating to the tax treatment or tax structure shall
remain subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent reasonably necessary to enable the parties hereto, their respective Affiliates, and their respective Affiliates’ directors and
employees to comply with applicable securities laws. For this purpose, “tax structure” means any facts relevant to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement but does not include information
relating to the identity of any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Affiliates. 

  
 125 












 9.18    Usury Savings Clause. 

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged by any Lender with respect to any of the Obligations, including
all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law, shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence)
under this Agreement charged by any Lender at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender, the outstanding amount of the Loans held by such Lender made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total
amount of interest due thereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due thereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made thereunder are
repaid in full the total interest due thereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due thereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at
all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid to such Lender and the amount of interest which would have been paid to
such Lender if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges,
or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to
the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder to such Lender or be refunded to Borrower. 

9.19    Effectiveness; Counterparts. 

This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by Borrower and
Administrative Agent of written notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, and all
such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic format (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective
as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 9.20    Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement and the other Financing Documents with respect to fees payable to Administrative Agent or the syndication of the Loans and
Commitments constitute the entire contract and understanding 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. 

9.21    PATRIOT Act. 

Each Lender and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of
the PATRIOT Act and, if applicable, the 

  
 126 












 
Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other
information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act and, if applicable, the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements
of the PATRIOT Act and is effective for each Lender and Agent. 
 9.22    Electronic Execution of
Assignments. 
 The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment
Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as an original executed signature or the use of a paper-based
recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any
other similar state, provincial or territorial laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

9.23    No Fiduciary Duty. 

Each Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”),
are full service financial institutions engaged, either directly or through their respective affiliates, in a broad array of activities, including commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, market making and trading, investment
management (both public and private investing), investment research, principal investment, financial planning, benefits counseling, risk management, hedging, financing, brokerage and other financial and
non-financial activities and services globally. In the ordinary course of their various business activities, each Lender and funds or other entities in which the Lenders invest or with which they co-invest, may at any time purchase, sell, hold or vote long or short positions and investments in securities, derivatives, loans, commodities, currencies, credit default swaps and other financial instruments for
their own account and for the accounts of their customers. In addition, any Lender may at any time communicate independent recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such assets, securities or instruments. Any
of the aforementioned activities may involve or relate to assets, securities and/or instruments of Borrower and/or any of its Affiliates, as well as of Borrower and/or other Persons which (a) may be involved in transactions arising from or
relating to the Financing Documents or (b) have other relationships with Borrower or its Affiliates. In addition, any Lender may provide investment banking, commercial banking, underwriting and financial advisory services to such other Persons.
The transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents may have a direct or indirect impact on the investments, securities or instruments referred to in this Section 9.23, and employees working on the financing
contemplated hereby may have been involved in originating certain of such investments and those employees may receive credit internally therefor, and may have economic interests that conflict with those of Borrower, its equity holders and/or its
Affiliates. Although any Lender in the course of such other activities and relationships may acquire information about the Financing Documents and transactions contemplated thereby or other Persons which may be the subject of the Financing
Documents, none of the Lenders shall have any obligation to disclose such information, or the fact that such Lender is in possession of such information, Borrower or to use such information on 

  
 127 












 
Borrower’s behalf. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that nothing in the Financing Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary
or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and Borrower, its equity holders or its Affiliates, on the other. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) each Lender will act under the Financing Documents as an independent
contractor, (ii) the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the
Lenders, on the one hand, and Borrower, on the other, and (iii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Borrower, its equity holders or its
Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise
Borrower, its equity holders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Financing Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or
fiduciary of Borrower, or any of its management, equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other Person. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that
Borrower, its equity holders and its Affiliates are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered
advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. In addition, any Lender may employ the services of its Affiliates in providing services
hereunder and may exchange with such Affiliates information concerning Borrower or its equity holders or its Affiliates and other companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents, and such Lender
Affiliates will be entitled to the benefits afforded to such Lender hereunder. Consistent with each Lender’s policies to hold in confidence the affairs of its customers, each Lender will not furnish confidential information obtained from
Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents to any of its other customers. Furthermore, Borrower acknowledges that none of the Lenders or any of their respective Affiliates has an obligation to use in connection
with the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents, or to furnish to Borrower, confidential information obtained or that may be obtained by them from any other Person. 

Each of the Lenders or their respective Affiliates are, or may at any time be, a counterparty (in such capacities, the “Derivative
Counterparties”) to Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to one or more agreements with respect to any swap, forward, future or derivative transaction or option or similar agreement involving, or settled by reference to, one
or more rates, currencies, commodities, equity or debt instruments or securities, or economic, financial or pricing indices or measures of economic, financial or pricing risk or value or any similar transaction or any combination of these
transactions, in each case, entered into by to Borrower (collectively, the “Derivatives”). Borrower acknowledges and agrees for itself and its Subsidiaries that each Derivative Counterparty (a) will be acting for its own
account as principal in connection with the Derivatives, (b) will be under no obligation or duty as a result of such Lender’s or its respective Affiliates’ role in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Financing
Documents or otherwise to take any action or refrain from taking any action, or exercising any rights or remedies, that such Derivative Counterparty may be entitled to take or exercise in respect of the applicable Derivatives and (c) may manage
its exposure to the Derivatives without regard to such Lenders’ or its respective Affiliates’ role hereunder. 

  
 128 












 9.24    Authorization of Filing of Financing Statements.

 Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to file one or more financing statements (including fixture filings), continuation statements, or
other documents for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the security interest granted by Borrower pursuant to the Security Documents, without the signature of Borrower, and naming Borrower as debtor and
Collateral Agent as secured party. Borrower authorizes Collateral Agent to use the collateral description “all assets,” “all personal property, whether now existing or hereafter acquired,” “all of the debtor’s assets,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired” or words of similar effect in any such financing statements filed or other filings for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the security interest granted hereunder
by Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing the Collateral Agent has no obligation to file any financing statement. 

9.25    Electronic Execution of Documents. The words “execution,” “execute”,
“signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement, the other Financing Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include
electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect,
validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
