L.P., a Texas limited partnership (the “Opco Borrower” and, collectively with the Parent Borrower, the “Borrowers”, and individually, a “Borrower”), the Subsidiary Guarantors,
each lender from time to time party hereto (collectively, the “Lenders” and individually, a “Lender”), BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender, and an L/C Issuer. 

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested that the Lenders provide a revolving credit facility, and the Lenders are willing to do so, on the terms
and conditions set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties
hereto covenant and agree as follows:

“Acquired Assets” has the meaning set forth in the definition of “Incremental EBITDA”. 

“Acquired Subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in the definition of “Incremental EBITDA”.

 “Acquisition” by any Person, means the acquisition by such Person, in a single transaction or in a series of
related transactions, of property or assets (other than capital expenditures or acquisitions of inventory or supplies in the ordinary course of business) constituting all or substantially all of the assets of, or a business unit or division of,
another Person or at least a majority of the securities having ordinary voting power for the election of directors, managing general partners or the equivalent of another Person, in each case whether or not involving a merger or consolidation with
such other Person and whether for cash, property, services, assumption of Indebtedness, securities or otherwise. 
 “Acquisition
Period” means the period beginning with the date of payment of the purchase price for a Specified Acquisition (the “Acquisition Closing Date”) and continuing through the earliest of (a) the last day of the
second fiscal quarter following the quarter in which the Acquisition Closing Date occurs, (b) the date designated by the Parent Borrower as the termination date of such Acquisition Period, or (c) the Quarter End Date on which the Parent
Borrower is in compliance with Section 7.09 as such compliance is determined as if such period was not an Acquisition Period. As used in this definition, “Specified Acquisition” means any one or more transactions
(x) consummated during a consecutive 9-month period pursuant to which the Parent Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries, or any combination of the foregoing, directly or indirectly, whether in the form of capital expenditure, an
investment, a merger, a consolidation, an amalgamation or otherwise and whether through a solicitation of tender of equity interests, one or more negotiated block, market, private or other transactions, or any combination of the foregoing, acquires
for an aggregate purchase price of not less than $50,000,000 (i) all or substantially all of the business or assets of any other Person or operating division or business unit of any other Person or (ii) more than 50% of the equity
interests in any other Person, and (y) designated by the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent as a 

  
 1 








 
“Specified Acquisition” (such designation may be made at any time during an Acquisition Period that began on the Acquisition Closing Date for such Specified Acquisition);
provided that following a designation of a Specified Acquisition, the Parent Borrower may not designate a subsequent Specified Acquisition unless, after the end of the most recent Acquisition Period there shall have occurred at least one
Quarter End Date on which the Parent Borrower is in compliance with Section 7.09, as such compliance is determined as if such period was not an Acquisition Period. As used in this definition, “Quarter End Date”
means the last date of a fiscal quarter. 
 “Administrative Agent” means Bank of America in its capacity as
administrative agent under any of the Loan Documents, or any successor administrative agent. 
 “Administrative Agent’s

Lenders. 
 “Administrative Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in the form supplied by the
Administrative Agent to be completed by the Lenders. 
 “Affiliate” means, as to any Person, any other Person
directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with, such Person. A Person shall be deemed to be “controlled by” any other Person if such other Person possesses, directly or indirectly, power
to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person whether by contract or otherwise. 

“Agent-Related Persons” means the Administrative Agent (including any successor administrative agent permitted hereby)
and each Arranger, together with their respective Affiliates, and the officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys-in-fact of such Persons and Affiliates.

 The Applicable Rate in effect from the Closing Date through the date on which the Administrative Agent receives a Compliance
Certificate pursuant to Section 6.02(a)(i) for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2013 shall be determined based upon Pricing Level IV. Thereafter, the Applicable Rate shall be determined and adjusted quarterly on the date (each a
“Calculation Date”) ten (10) Business Days after the day by which the Parent Borrower is required to provide a Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 6.02(a)(i) for the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the
Parent Borrower and shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Parent Borrower preceding the applicable Calculation Date as reflected in the applicable Compliance
Certificate; provided that if the Parent Borrower fails to provide the Compliance Certificate as required by Section 6.02(a)(i) for the most recently ended calendar quarter of the Parent Borrower preceding the applicable
Calculation Date (including if the Parent Borrower fails to deliver the Compliance Certificate for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2013 as required by Section 6.02(a)(i)), the Applicable Rate from such Calculation Date shall
be based on Pricing Level I until such time as an appropriate Compliance Certificate is provided, at which time the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended calendar
quarter of the Parent Borrower preceding such Calculation Date. The Applicable Rate shall be effective from one Calculation Date until the next Calculation Date. Any adjustment in the Applicable Rate shall be applicable to all Credit Extensions then
existing or subsequently made or issued. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the date the Parent Borrower receives an Investment
Grade Rating, in the event that any financial statement or Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 or 6.02(a)(i) is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether (i) this Agreement is in effect,
(ii) the Commitments are in effect, or (iii) any Credit Extension is outstanding when such inaccuracy is discovered or such financial statement or Compliance Certificate was delivered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to
the application of a higher Applicable Rate for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Rate applied for such Applicable Period, then (A) the Parent Borrower shall promptly (but in any event within five
(5) Business Days thereafter) deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (B) the Applicable Rate for such Applicable Period shall be determined as if the Total Leverage Ratio in the
corrected Compliance Certificate were applicable for such Applicable Period, and (C) the Borrowers shall within such five (5) Business Day period and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued additional
interest and fees owing as a result of such increased Applicable Rate for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.13; provided that the obligations
under this paragraph shall not apply 

  
 3 








 
to any inaccuracy contained in a Compliance Certificate if such inaccuracy resulted from a change in GAAP. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the rights of the Administrative Agent and Lenders
with respect to Sections 2.08(b) and 8.02 nor any of their other rights under this Agreement. 
 “Approved
Fund” means any Fund that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender or (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 

“Arranger” means either Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated or Citigroup Global Markets Inc.,
in their respective capacities as co-arrangers and joint bookmanagers. As used herein, the term “Arranger” shall mean “each Arranger” or the “applicable Arranger” as the context may require. 

“Assignee Conditions” means, in relation to any Approved Fund that is financially capable of performing the
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, the conditions as follows: (i) if a Lender assigns to such an Eligible Assignee less than all of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it (or a participation in its L/C Obligations), any
right of such assigning Lender and such assignee to vote as a Lender, or any other direct claim or right against the Borrowers in relation to this Agreement, shall be uniformly exercised or pursued by such assigning Lender and such assignee; and
(ii) such assignee shall not be entitled to payment from any Borrower under Article III of amounts in excess of those payable to such Lender assignor under such Article (determined without regard to such assignment or transfer).

 “Assignee Group” means two or more Eligible Assignees that are Affiliates of one another or two or more Approved
Funds managed by the same investment advisor. 
 “Assignment and Assumption” means an Assignment and Assumption
substantially in the form of Exhibit D. 
 “Attorney Costs” means and includes all fees and disbursements of

Committed Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans, would exceed such Lender’s
Commitment. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly each Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain
Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. 
 (ii) No L/C
Issuer shall issue any Letter of Credit if: 
 (A) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than
twelve months after the date of issuance, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or 
 (B) the expiry
date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (taking into account any extensions pursuant to Section 2.14), unless all Lenders have approved such expiry date. 

(iii) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: 

(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain
the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or
request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement
(for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the L/C Issuer in
good faith deems material to it; 
 (B) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after any Scheduled
Maturity Date applicable to any Non-Extending Lender, unless the amount of such Letter of Credit together with all other L/C Obligations outstanding on the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit is equal to or less than the Aggregate Commitments
of all Lenders who shall remain party, and additional Persons who shall become Lenders party, to this Agreement subsequent to the Scheduled Maturity Date that immediately precedes the expiry date of such Letter of Credit; 

(C) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer; 

  
 34 








 (D) such Letter of Credit is in a face amount less than $100,000, in the case of
a commercial Letter of Credit, or $500,000, in the case of any standby Letter of Credit, or is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars; 

(E) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless either (1) a Borrower or the Defaulting Lender or a combination
thereof has delivered Cash Collateral to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount equal to such L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to the Defaulting Lender (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any other
Cash Collateral provided with respect to the Defaulting Lender, without duplication) or (2) such L/C Issuer has otherwise entered into arrangements, satisfactory to such L/C Issuer with the Borrowers or the Defaulting Lender to eliminate such
L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to the Defaulting Lender (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Borrowers and/or the Defaulting Lender to reduce such Fronting Exposure), in
either case, arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which such L/C Issuer has Fronting Exposure, as it may elect; or 

(F) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations under Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer would exceed such L/C
Issuer’s L/C Issuer Commitment. 
 (iv) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if
(A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of
Credit. 
 (v) If the L/C Issuer declines to issue a requested Letter of Credit for the reasons stated in
Section 2.03(a)(iii)(C), upon a Borrower’s request, the L/C Issuer shall provide to the requesting Borrower a reasonably detailed description of the applicable policy or policies. 

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit. 

(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of a Borrower delivered to the
applicable L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the
L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole
discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the
L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the
documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter
of Credit; (H) if the requesting Borrower desires any modification in respect of Rule 3.14 of the ISP, a description of such 

  
 35 








 
modification; and (I) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall
specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment (including any
modification in respect of Rule 3.14 of the ISP, if so requested by the requesting Borrower); and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. 

(ii) Promptly after its receipt of a Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent
(by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from a Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has
received written notice from the Administrative Agent (who hereby agrees to provide prompt notice to the Borrowers) or a Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit,
that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 4.02 shall not then be satisfied (specifying in reasonable detail the relevant condition or conditions not then satisfied) and such conditions or conditions, as applicable,
remain unsatisfied on such requested date of issuance or amendment, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the requesting Borrower or enter into the
applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit. 

(iii) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with
respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the requesting Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 

(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. 

(i) Upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the issuing L/C Issuer shall notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative
Agent thereof. If the L/C Issuer gives notice to the Parent Borrower prior to 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), a Borrower
shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent, on the Honor Date, in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing; and if such L/C Issuer shall give notice to the Parent Borrower at or after such time, a Borrower shall make such
reimbursement by 11:00 a.m., New York time on the following Business Day. In the event that reimbursement is made on such following day as permitted by this subsection (c)(i), interest shall be payable by a Borrower at the rate set forth in
Section 2.08(a)(ii) on the amount of the drawing from the date on which the relevant draft is paid until the date on which such amount is either paid in full (by payment made by a Borrower or by a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans pursuant to
this subsection (c)(i)) or is deemed to be an L/C Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(iii). If a Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by the applicable time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of
the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, the Borrower for 

  
 36 








 
whose account the Letter of Credit was issued shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount,
without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Loan Notice). Any notice given by an L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing;
provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

(ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available (and the Administrative
Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m., New York time, on
the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the
Borrower for whose account the Letter of Credit was issued in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer. 

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the
conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, such Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced,
which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to
Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

 (iv) Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Loan pursuant to clause (ii), or L/C Advance pursuant to clause (iii), of this
Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer. 

(v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Base Rate Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under
Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such
Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar
to any of the foregoing. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of a Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as
provided herein. 
 (vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer
any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in 

  
 37 








 
Section 2.03(c)(ii), then the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the
period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the L/C Issuer in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the
amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender
(through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Repayment of L/C Advances. 

(i) At any time after an L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such
Lender’s Base Rate Loan in accordance with Section 2.03(c)(ii) or its L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c)(iii), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer
any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will
distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. 
 (ii)
If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of an L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06, each Lender shall pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per
annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of each Borrower to reimburse an L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit that
it has requested to be issued, and to repay each L/C Borrowing and each drawing under a Letter of Credit that is paid by a corresponding Borrowing of Loans or L/C Advances, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: 
 (i) any lack of validity
or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 
 (ii)
the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that a Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any
such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated
transaction; 

  
 38 








 (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such
Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to
make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; 
 (iv) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy,
debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under
any Debtor Relief Law; or 
 (v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a Borrower or any Subsidiary, except for the gross negligence, willful misconduct or knowing violation of Law by the L/C Issuer in
connection with its payment of a Letter of Credit. 
 The Borrower requesting a Letter of Credit shall promptly examine a copy of each
Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with such Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, such Borrower shall immediately notify the applicable L/C Issuer and
such L/C Issuer will correct such noncompliance in conformity with such Borrower’s instruction or as otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such L/C Issuer, subject to any required approvals of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and
subject to the terms hereof. The Borrowers shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is immediately given as aforesaid. 

(f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrowers agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, an L/C Issuer shall
not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of
the Person executing or delivering any such document. No Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection
herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct or knowing violation of Law; or (iii) the due
execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with
respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude any such Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or
transferee at law or under any other agreement. No Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses
(i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, a Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to a
Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by a Borrower which a Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct, gross negligence or knowing
violation of Law or 

  
 39 








 
the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and
conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or
proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 
 (g) Cash Collateral. 

(i) Certain Credit Support Events. Within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or
any L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), (A) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing pursuant to
Section 2.03(c)(iii) and until such borrowing has been reimbursed or otherwise paid (including pursuant to a Borrowing), then a Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateral in amount equal to such L/C Borrowing, or
(B) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, then a Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateral in an amount equal to the
then Outstanding Amount of all such L/C Obligations. Section 2.03(g)(ii), Section 2.05(c), Section 2.14(c), Section 2.16 and Section 8.02 set forth additional provisions that may require
Cash Collateral to be provided. 
 (ii) Defaulting Lender. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender,
within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender (in each case, with a copy to the Administrative Agent), a Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash
Collateral in an amount equal to such L/C Issuers’ (and, if applicable, the Swing Line Lender’s) Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash
Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender). 
 (iii) Grant of Security Interest. Each Borrower, and to the extent
provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuers and, to the extent applicable, the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all
such Cash Collateral as security for the Obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.03(g)(iv). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim
of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided which has priority over the Administrative Agent’s claim (other than Liens permitted pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(iii)), or that the total amount of such Cash
Collateral is less than the aggregate amount required by this Section 2.03, Section 2.05(c), Section 2.14(c), Section 2.16 and Section 8.02, as applicable, each Borrower or, to the extent
such Cash Collateral was provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, agrees to, promptly within one Business Day of written demand by the Administrative Agent, remit or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in
an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral then in the control of the Administrative Agent); provided that if any applicable Defaulting Lender fails to provide such additional Cash
Collateral, a Borrower shall promptly within one Business Day of written demand by the Administrative Agent provide such additional Cash Collateral. 

  
 40 








 (iv) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, but subject to subsection (v) below, Cash Collateral provided pursuant to this Section 2.03, Section 2.05(c), Section 2.14(c), Section 2.16 or Section 8.02 in
respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender,
any interest accrued on such obligations), prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein. 

(v) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or to secure
other obligations herein secured thereby shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or payment in full of the applicable portion of all such obligations secured thereby (including by the
termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender or the expiration of the applicable Letters of Credit and the payment of all L/C Obligations related thereto, as the case may be), as applicable, or (ii) the determination by the
Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.16, the Person providing Cash Collateral and each L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to
support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and any such future Fronting Exposure shall be reduced by the amount so held; and provided, further that no Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of any Borrower
shall be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default to the extent that there exists any Fronting Exposure at such time, in which case, such Cash Collateral shall be applied to reduce such Fronting Exposure in lieu of being
released. 
 (vi) Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained
in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America or other institutions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (h)
Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and a Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute
of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) (the “ISP”) shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform
Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”) at the time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. 

(i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Parent Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with
its Pro Rata Share a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit issued at its request equal to the Applicable Rate for Letters of Credit multiplied by the actual daily maximum amount available
to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender shall be payable as set forth in Section 2.16(a)(iii)(C). Such fee for each Letter of
Credit shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date. If there is
any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount of each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.
For purposes of computing the “actual daily maximum amount available to be drawn” under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. 

  
 41 








 (j) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The Parent
Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee (i) with respect to each commercial Letter of Credit, at the rate specified in the applicable Fee Letter or in another agreement between a Borrower and the
applicable L/C Issuer, computed on the amount of such Letter of Credit, and payable upon the issuance thereof, (ii) with respect to any amendment of a commercial Letter of Credit increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at a rate
separately agreed between a Borrower and the L/C Issuer, computed on the amount of such increase, and payable upon the effectiveness of such amendment, and (iii) with respect to each standby Letter of Credit issued at a Borrower’s
request, as provided in the applicable Fee Letter or other agreement between a Borrower and the applicable L/C Issuer, due and payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day after the last day of each March, June, September and
December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date. In addition, the Parent Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account the customary
issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit issued at its request as from time to time in effect. Such fees and charges are due and payable on
demand and are nonrefundable. 
 (k) Conflict with Letter of Credit Application. In the event of any conflict between the terms
hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control. 
 2.04 Swing Line Loans. 

(a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements
of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, to make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to each Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the
Maturity Date of the Swing Line Lender in an aggregate amount of all such Loans to the Borrowers not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with
the Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any
Swing Line Loan, (i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the
Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and provided, further, that no Borrower shall
use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan and provided, further, that the Swing Line Lender shall be under no obligation to make Swing Line Loans if any Lender at such time is a Defaulting
Lender, unless (y) the Administrative Agent has received Cash Collateral in the amount and on the terms required by Section 2.03(g)(ii), or (z) the Swing Line Lender is otherwise satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure
after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, each Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under
this Section 2.04. Each Borrower will have the option to choose whether the Swing Line Loan is a (1) Base Rate Loan, or a (2) Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender
shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount
of such Swing Line Loan. 

  
 42 








 (b) Borrowing Procedures; Conversion to Base Rate. Each Swing Line Borrowing, and each
conversion of Swing Line Borrowings from one Type to the other, shall be made upon the requesting Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be
received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing or conversion date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, (ii) the
requested borrowing or conversion date, which shall be a Business Day, and (iii) whether the Loan is a Base Rate Loan or a Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate Loan. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line
Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the requesting Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan
Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent
(by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed
Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the
applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice,
make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the requesting Borrower at its office by crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of the Swing Line Lender in immediately available funds. Each Swing Line Loan accruing interest at the
Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate shall continue to accrue interest as a Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate Loan at the end of each of its Interest Period unless and until (i) a Borrower has given notice of conversion to a Base Rate Loan in accordance
with this Section 2.04(b), or (ii) such Swing Line Loan is refinanced pursuant to Section 2.04(c). 
 (c)
Refinancing of Swing Line Loans. 
 (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may
request, on behalf of a Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Base Rate Committed Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing
Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the
minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the
Parent Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice
available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject
to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the applicable Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing
Line Lender. 

  
 43 








 (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a
Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Committed Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its
risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such
participation. 
 (iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line
Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such
Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per
annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the
Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or funded
participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. 
 (iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or to purchase and fund risk
participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which
such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any
of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. No such funding of risk
participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of any Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein. 

(d) Repayment of Participations. 

(i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender
receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender. 

(ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to
be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender
its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The


  
 44 








 
Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the
termination of this Agreement. 
 (e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for
invoicing the Borrowers for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Committed Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Swing
Line Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender. 
 (f) Payments Directly
to Swing Line Lender. A Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans it has requested directly to the Swing Line Lender. 

2.05 Prepayments. 
 (a)
Each Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Committed Loans, in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the
Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans, and (B) one Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any
prepayment of Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole
multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and
of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by a Borrower, a Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any
prepayment of Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Subject to Section 2.16, each such prepayment
shall be applied to the Committed Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. 
 (b) Each Borrower may, upon
notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty (other than amounts required pursuant to
Section 3.05); provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a
minimum principal amount of $100,000. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by a Borrower, a Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due
and payable on the date specified therein. 
 (c) If for any reason the Outstanding Amount of all Loans and L/C Obligations at any time
exceeds the Aggregate Commitments then in effect, a Borrower shall immediately prepay its Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. 

2.06 Reduction or Termination of Commitments. The Borrowers may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent from the Parent Borrower,
terminate the Aggregate Commitments, or permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments to an amount not less than the then 

  
 45 








 
Outstanding Amount of all Loans and L/C Obligations; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., five Business Days prior to
the date of termination or reduction, and (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of any
such notice of reduction or termination of the Aggregate Commitments. Once reduced in accordance with this Section, the Aggregate Commitments may not be increased. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each
Lender according to its Pro Rata Share. All commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. 

2.07 Repayment of Loans. 

(a) Each Borrower shall repay to each Lender on the Maturity Date applicable to such Lender the aggregate principal amount of Loans
outstanding on such date which were made to it. 
 (b) Each Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan on the earlier to occur of
(i) the date ten Business Days after such Loan is made and (ii) the Maturity Date applicable to the Swing Line Lender the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding on such date which were made to it. 

2.08 Interest. 
 (a)
Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Fixed Period Eurodollar
Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus
the Applicable Rate; and (iii) each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to (1) the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate, or
(2) the Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (b) In the event any amount due hereunder or under any other
Loan Document (including, without limitation, any interest payment) is not paid when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise), the applicable Borrower shall pay interest on such unpaid amount (including, without limitation, interest on interest)
at a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

 (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as
may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 

  
 46 








 2.09 Fees. 

In addition to certain fees described in subsections (i) and (j) of Section 2.03: 

(a) Commitment Fee. The Parent Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro
Rata Share, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate multiplied by the actual daily amount of the unused portion of the Aggregate Commitments, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.16; provided that the amount of
outstanding Swing Line Loans shall not be considered usage of the Aggregate Commitments for the purpose of calculating the commitment fee. The commitment fee for each Lender shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date (or such later date as such
Lender becomes party hereto, as applicable) until the Maturity Date for such Lender and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur
after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for such Lender. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and
multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article
IV is not met. 
 (b) Other Fees. The Parent Borrower shall pay a fee to each Arranger for its own account, and a fee to the
Administrative Agent for its own account, in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. 
 2.10 Computation of Interest
and Fees. Computation of interest on Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate) shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual
number of days elapsed. Computation of all other types of interest and all fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed, which results in a higher yield to the payee thereof than a method based on
a year of 365 or 366 days. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid
on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. 
 2.11 Evidence of Debt. 

(a) The Credit Extensions made by (i) each Lender (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the Swing Line Lender) shall be evidenced by
one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business and (ii) the Swing Line Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by the Swing Line
Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent, each such Lender and the Swing Line Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit
Extensions made by such Lenders and the Swing Line Lender to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers
hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans and L/C Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any such Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and the accounts and records
of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall be presumed to be prima facie evidence of such matters absent manifest error. Upon the request of any such Lender or the Swing Line
Lender, 

  
 47 








 
as the case may be, made through the Administrative Agent, such Lender’s Loans or the Swing Line Lender’s Loans, as the case may be, may be evidenced by a Note, in addition to such
accounts or records. Each such Lender and the Swing Line Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of the applicable Loans and payments with respect thereto. 

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a), each Lender, the Swing Line Lender and the
Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender and the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line
Loans, as applicable. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any such Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, in respect of such matters, the
accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control. 
 2.12 Payments Generally. 

(a) All payments to be made by each Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by each Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in
Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 noon, New York time, on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of
such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00 noon, New York time, shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any
applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. 
 (b) Subject to the definition of “Interest Period,” if any
payment to be made by a Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 

(c) If at any time, including following an exercise of remedies, insufficient funds, including proceeds of Springing Lien Collateral, are
received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs and
amounts payable under Article III) incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, (ii) second, toward repayment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
interest and fees then due to such parties, and (iii) third, toward repayment of principal and L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and L/C Borrowings then due
to such parties. 
 (d) (i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any
Borrowing of Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Committed Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such
Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender
has made such share available in accordance 

  
 48 








 
with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the requesting Borrower a corresponding amount. If any Lender failed to
make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the
Administrative Agent to a Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (A) the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in
effect and (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection
with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the
Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the requesting Borrower, and such Borrower shall pay (subject to its recoupment rights from and remedies against such defaulting Lender of any
breakage costs paid by such Borrower when repaying such amount) such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable
Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or a Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such
Lender hereunder. If a Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such
Borrower for such period. 
 (ii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the
date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on
such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if a Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or
the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and
including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry
rules on interbank compensation. 
 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or a Borrower with respect to any amount owing under
this subsection (d) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (e) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds
for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms
hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 

(f) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Committed Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to
make payments pursuant to Section 10.05(b) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.05(b) on any


  
 49 








 
date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make
its Committed Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.05(b). 
 (g) Nothing herein shall be
deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 

2.13 Sharing of Payments. Subject to Section 10.09 with respect to a Defaulting Lender, if any Lender shall, by exercising
any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Committed Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans held by it resulting in such
Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Committed Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater
proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Committed Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make
such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Committed Loans and other
amounts owing them, provided that: 
 (i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all
or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and 

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by or on behalf of the
Borrowers 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), (B) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in
Section 2.03(g), or (C) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Committed Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or
participant, other than an assignment to the Borrowers or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). 

2.14 Extension of Scheduled Maturity Date. 

(a) Not earlier than 60 days prior to, nor later than 30 days prior to, an anniversary of the Closing Date, the Parent Borrower
may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders), request a one year extension of the Scheduled Maturity Date for each of the Lenders. The Parent Borrower may request such an extension no more than four times.
Within 15 days of delivery of such notice, each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent whether or not it consents to such extension (which consent may be given or withheld in such Lender’s sole and absolute discretion). Any Lender not
responding within the above time period shall be deemed not to have consented to such extension. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Lenders of the Lenders’ responses. If any Lender declines, or is deemed
to have declined, to consent to such extension (a “Non-Extending Lender”), the Parent Borrower may cause any such Non-Extending Lender to be removed or replaced as a Lender pursuant to Section 10.15. 


  
 50 








 (b) The Scheduled Maturity Date for each Consenting Lender (defined below) shall be
extended only if Lenders holding more than 50% of the Commitments (calculated prior to giving effect to any removals and/or replacements of Lenders permitted herein) (the “Consenting Lenders”) have consented thereto, with
respect only to Consenting Lenders and any Lender replacing a Non-Extending Lender pursuant to Section 10.15. If so extended, the Scheduled Maturity Date, as to each Consenting Lender and each Lender replacing a Non-Extending Lender
pursuant to Section 10.15, shall be extended to the same date in the following year (the “Extension Effective Date”) but the pre-existing Scheduled Maturity Date shall remain in effect with respect to any
Non-Extending Lender that is not replaced. The Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower shall promptly confirm to the Lenders such extension and the Extension Effective Date. As a condition precedent to such extension, the Parent Borrower shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate dated as of the date that would be the effective date of such extension (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower (i) certifying and attaching
the resolutions adopted by each Borrower approving or consenting to such extension, or if the Borrowers’ resolutions delivered pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(iii) provided for such extension, certifying that such resolutions have not
been amended, modified or rescinded and remain in full force and effect and, (ii) certifying that, (A) before and after giving effect to such extension, the representations and warranties contained in Article V are true and correct
on and as of the date that would be the effective date of such extension, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to a different date, in which case they shall be true and correct as of such date, (B) no
Default or Event of Default exists, and (C) the Borrowers will provide any Cash Collateral and make any payments required by clauses (c) and (d) below on such Scheduled Maturity Date applicable to each Non-Extending
Lender. 
 (c) On the Scheduled Maturity Date applicable to each Non-Extending Lender, all or any part of such Non-Extending
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations shall be reallocated among the Consenting Lenders and each Lender replacing a Non-Extending Lender pursuant to Section 10.15 in accordance with their respective
Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to the Non-Extending Lenders’ Commitments), but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause, with respect to any Consenting Lender or any Lender replacing a Non-Extending Lender pursuant
to Section 10.15, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of such Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding
Amount of all Swing Line Loans, to exceed such Lender’s Commitment as in effect at such time; provided, however, that if such reallocation cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize the L/C
Obligations to the extent that, after giving effect to the reallocation and required payments, if any, in clause (d) below, the Outstanding Amount of all Loans and L/C Obligations exceed the Commitments of the Consenting Lenders and the
Lenders replacing Non-Extending Lenders pursuant to Section 10.15. The amount of any such Cash Collateral provided by the Borrowers shall reduce the Non-Extending Lenders’ Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations
(after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to this clause (c)) on a pro rata basis; and each Non-Extending Lender’s Commitment to make Committed Loans, purchase participations in Swing Line Loans, and purchase risk participations
in L/C Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit issued after such Stated Maturity Date shall terminate. 
 (d) The Administrative Agent
shall distribute an amended Schedule 2.01 (which shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement), to reflect any changes in Lenders and their respective Commitments. The Borrowers shall (i) on the Scheduled Maturity Date for each
Non-Extending Lender, prior to or contemporaneously with giving effect to any extension, pay amounts due, in full, to any Non-Extending Lender that is not replaced as a Lender pursuant to 

  
 51 








 
Section 10.15, and (ii) prepay any Loans outstanding on the Extension Effective Date which were made to it (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to
Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Loans ratable with the Pro Rata Shares of all the Lenders. 
 (e)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that any Non-Extending Lender is an L/C Issuer, such L/C Issuer shall not be required to issue any Letter of Credit if the expiry date of such Letter of Credit would occur after
the Scheduled Maturity Date applicable to such L/C Issuer and the commitment of such L/C Issuer to issue Letters of Credit shall automatically terminate effective as of the Scheduled Maturity Date applicable to it and such L/C Issuer will have no
further obligation to issue Letters of Credit under this Agreement. To the extent that any L/C Issuer is a Non-Extending Lender and has issued Letters of Credit with an expiry date that extends beyond such L/C Issuer’s Scheduled Maturity Date,
for so long as such Letters of Credit remain outstanding, such L/C Issuer shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all such Letters of Credit (including the right to require the Lenders to
make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). 
 (f) This
Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or Section 10.01 to the contrary. 
 2.15
Increase in Commitments. 
 (a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default or Event of Default, upon notice to the
Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Parent Borrower may request from time to time and at any time, in accordance with the terms hereof, an increase in the aggregate amount of the then Commitments provided that
(i) the Aggregate Commitments as so increased may not exceed $1,000,000,000, and (ii) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, and in multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. To achieve the full
amount of a requested increase, the Parent Borrower may (i) invite Lenders to increase their Commitments and/or (ii) invite any Persons that would not be precluded from being an assignee by Sections 10.07(b)(v),
10.07(b)(vi), 10.07(b)(vii) to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (each such Person, a “Proposed Lender”). In the event the Parent
Borrower invites Lenders to increase their Commitments, then at the time of sending the notice referenced in this Section 2.15(a), the Parent Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within
which each Lender and Proposed Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). 

(b) Lender Elections to Increase. After receipt of the request for Commitment increase described above, each Lender shall notify the
Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share (as it existed immediately prior to
such requested increase) of such requested increase. After receipt of the request for Commitment described above, each Proposed Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower within such time period whether or not it agrees to
participate in such increased amount of the Aggregate Commitments, and at what amount it proposes to participate in such increased amount. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parent Borrower, any Lender or Proposed Lender not responding within such time
period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment, or participate in the increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments, as the case may be. 

  
 52 








 (c) Notification by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent
Borrower and each Lender and Proposed Lender of the Lenders’ and Proposed Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. 

(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the aggregate amount of Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the
Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower shall determine the respective effective date thereof (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the
Lenders and the Proposed Lenders of such final allocation of such increase and such Increase Effective Date. 
 (e) Conditions to
Effectiveness of Increase. As conditions precedent to each increase, (1) each Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer dated as of the applicable Increase Effective Date (i) certifying
and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Borrower authorizing such increase, and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties made in Article V of this Agreement
and made by such Borrower or any Subsidiary in any other Loan Document furnished by such Borrower or any Subsidiary in connection herewith are true and correct on and as of such applicable Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such
representations and warranties specifically refer to a different date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.15(e), the representations and warranties contained in
subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01 and (B) no Default or Event of
Default exists, (2) each Subsidiary Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer dated as of the applicable Increase Effective Date certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such
Subsidiary Guarantor authorizing such increase and (3) each Proposed Lender that is becoming a Lender shall (A) be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, which approvals shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (B) execute and deliver a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall prepay any Loans outstanding on
such applicable Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with the Pro Rata Shares arising from any nonratable increase in the
Commitments under this Section and in effect after giving effect thereto. 
 (f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede
any provisions in Sections 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary. 
 2.16 Defaulting Lender. 

(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 that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law: 

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or
consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Voting Percentage and in Section 10.01 

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise 

  
 53 








 
and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent from that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.09 shall, following application by the Administrative Agent of
any such payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers to the account of such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Obligation paid (and in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a) or such other
provision of this Agreement applicable with respect to the distribution thereof), be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting
Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative
Agent or requested by a L/C Issuer (and after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral then held), to be held as Cash Collateral for such L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in
accordance with Section 2.03(g); fourth, as the Parent Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), 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, or so long as the amount of the Cash Collateral at such time is equal to the actual Fronting Exposure at such time, to substitute for and release to the Parent Borrower on a dollar-for-dollar basis, Cash
Collateral previously provided by the Borrowers with respect to the applicable Defaulting Lender (subject to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer or the Swing Line
Lender, as applicable, and such substituted amounts otherwise satisfying the requirements to constitute Cash Collateral hereunder), or any combination thereof, in each case, other than during a Collateral Period, free and clear of Liens created in
favor of Administrative Agent hereunder or any other Loan Document; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, to be held in an interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to
(x) satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender’s to fund Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of
Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.03(g); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers or Swing Line Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuers or Swing Line Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, to the payment of any amounts
owing to any Borrower hereunder or as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by a Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;
and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that, with respect to this clause eighth, if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C
Credit Extensions in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Credit Extensions owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or
L/C Credit Extensions owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Aggregate Commitments without
giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this
Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

  
 54 








 (iii) Certain Fees. 

(A) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive a commitment fee for any period during which that Lender is a
Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to the sum of (1) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans funded by it, and (2) its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral
pursuant to Section 2.03(g). 
 (B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for
any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.03(g). 

(C) With respect to any commitment fee or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to
clause (A) or (B) above, a Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent that such Defaulting Lender’s participation in
L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable
to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such L/C Issuer’s or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. 

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s
participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the
extent that such reallocation does not cause the Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 

(v) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be
effected, a Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ and Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.03(g). 
 (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender
and each L/C Issuer agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth
therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent
may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held pro 

  
 55 








 
rata by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), 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 the Borrowers 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’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

(c) Rights and Remedies against a Defaulting Lender. The Parent Borrower may remove or replace any Defaulting Lender in accordance with
the procedures set forth in Section 10.15 of this Agreement. The rights and remedies against, and with respect to, a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.16 are in addition to, and cumulative and not in limitation of, all
other rights and remedies that each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the Lenders and the Borrowers may, at any time, have against, or with respect to, such Defaulting Lender. 

ARTICLE III. 
 TAXES,
YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
 3.01 Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes. 

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall
to the extent permitted by applicable Laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If, however, applicable Laws require any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be
withheld or deducted in accordance with such Laws as determined by such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

 (ii) If any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes,
including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by such Loan Party or the
Administrative Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted
to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as
necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the
Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws. 

  
 56 








 (c) Tax Indemnifications. 

(i) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, the Borrowers shall, and do hereby,
jointly and severally, indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the L/C Issuer, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) withheld or deducted by any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent or paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as
the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the Parent Borrower by a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a
Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (ii) Without limiting the provisions of
subsection (a) or (b) above, each Lender and the L/C Issuer shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, against
any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Borrower or the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against any
Borrower or the Administrative Agent by any Governmental Authority as a result of the failure by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required
to be delivered by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (e). Each Lender and the L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply
any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). The agreements in this
clause (ii) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. 
 (d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by the Parent Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party or by the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, the Parent Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Parent Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be. 

(e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation. 

(i) Each Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and to the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by
applicable Laws or when reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the taxing 

  
 57 








 
authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether
or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction
of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by a Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction. 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, 

(A) any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30)
of the Code shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time
thereafter at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws or upon the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form) or such other documentation
or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine that such Lender is not subject
to backup withholding or to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to information reporting requirements; and 
 (B)
each Foreign Lender that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the
Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter at the time or times prescribed by
applicable Laws or upon the request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(1) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or successor form)
claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, 
 (2) executed originals
of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor form), 
 (3) executed
originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or successor form) and all required supporting documentation, 

(4) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under
Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent
shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and
(y) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or successor form), or 
 (5) executed originals of any
other form prescribed by applicable Laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit the Parent
Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

  
 58 








 (iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to
U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall
deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law
(including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Parent Borrower and the 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 clause
(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 (iv) Each Lender
shall promptly (A) notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, (B) in the event any form or certification previously
delivered by it pursuant to this Section 3.01(e) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect or a Change in Law occurs requiring a change in such previously delivered form or certification, deliver any such other properly
completed and executed form, certification or documentation as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from or a reduction in withholding Taxes with respect to payments hereunder or under any
other Loan Documents if such Lender continues to be so entitled, and (C) in the event any Loan Party is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a) and (c), take such
steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any
jurisdiction that the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent make any withholding or deduction for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender. 

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to
file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or the L/C Issuer, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the
case may be. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with
respect to which such Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to the applicable Loan Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional
amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section with respect 

  
 59 








 
to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the indemnifying Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, agrees to repay
the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or
the L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person. 
 3.02 Illegality. If
any Lender determines that any Law enacted, construed or announced after the Closing Date has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or
fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the applicable offshore Dollar market, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate,
then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Parent Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until
such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate
Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, such paying Borrower shall also pay interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. If any
such Law, or change therein, shall only affect a portion of such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement which is, in the opinion of such Lender and the Administrative Agent, severable from the remainder of this Agreement so that the
remainder of this Agreement may be continued in full force and effect without otherwise affecting any of the obligations of the Administrative Agent, the other Lenders or any Borrower, such Lender shall only declare its obligations under that
portion so terminated. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. 

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative Agent determines in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or
a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore Dollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (b) adequate and
reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (c) the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Eurodollar
Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Parent Borrower and all Lenders. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar
Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the
Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the affected Lenders revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, a Borrower may, 

  
 60 








 
without liability for any attendant breakage costs, revoke any pending request for a Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have
converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (a) in the first sentence of this section, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Parent Borrower and the affected Lenders, may establish an alternative
interest rate for the impacted Loans (the “Impacted Loans”), in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with
respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (a) the first sentence of this section, (2) the Administrative Agent or the affected Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (3) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its
applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material
restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower written notice thereof. 

3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. 

(a) If any Lender determines that as a result of any Change in Law, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in
the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans to, or (as the case may be) issuing or participating in Letters of Credit for the account of, a Borrower, or a reduction in the amount received or
receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this subsection (a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 3.01
shall govern), (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or any foreign jurisdiction or any political subdivision of either thereof under the Laws of which such Lender is organized
or has its Lending Office, and (iii) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), such Borrower shall pay to such
Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. 
 (b) If any Lender determines that any
Change in Law, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations
hereunder with respect to a Borrower (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent), such Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. 

(c) Each Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board to maintain reserves with
respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional costs on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan made to it equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by
such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, 

  
 61 








 
which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided such Borrower shall have received at least 15 days’
prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 15 days from
receipt of such notice. 
 (d) Each Lender agrees that it will not claim, and that it shall not be entitled to claim, from any Borrower the
payment of any of the amounts referred to in this Section 3.04 (i) if it is not generally claiming similar compensation from its other similar customers in similar circumstances and (ii) unless the relevant introduction or
change affects all banks and other financial institutions substantially similar to such Lender having regard to the size, business activities and regulatory capital of such banks and other financial institutions, but excluding differences based
solely on the residency of Persons controlling such banks or other financial institutions. In addition, each Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to reduce the amount it requests pursuant to Section 3.04, including using its
reasonable efforts to not assign or transfer any Loan to any Person if such assignment or transfer would or would be likely to increase the amount of such amounts payable; provided, however, such Lender shall have no obligation to take
or omit to take any action that such Lender in its good faith judgment believes would be disadvantageous to it. Each amount required to be paid to any Lender pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall be accompanied by a certificate of the
requisite Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount owed, the basis therefor and the calculations in respect thereto. 
 (e)
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 no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender
pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 90 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Parent Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such
Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the introduction of Law or change in (or change in interpretation of) Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 3.05 Funding Losses. Upon demand of any
Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time (which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate of such demanding Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount demanded, the bases therefor and the calculations in
respect thereto), the Borrower to whom the subject Loan was made shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan made to such Borrower other than a Base Rate Loan or Daily Floating
Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 

(b) any failure by such Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert
any Loan made to such Borrower other than a Base Rate Loan or Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by such Borrower; or 

(c) any assignment of a Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period as a result of a request by
such Borrower pursuant to Section 10.15; 

  
 62 








 including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of
funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Such Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by a Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded
each Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or
not such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 
 3.06 Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation. 

(a) A certificate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article III and setting forth in
reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and such other information as otherwise specified in this Article III shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, the
Administrative Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods customarily used by it in comparable circumstances. 

(b) Upon any Lender’s making a claim for compensation under Section 3.01 or 3.04, the Parent Borrower may remove or
replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.15. 
 3.07 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this
Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all the other Obligations.

wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrowers or its securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities. The

Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof;
(x) by so marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material
non-public information with respect to the Borrowers or their securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall
be treated as set forth in Section 10.08); (y) all such Borrower Materials so marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and

Information.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall be under no obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”

any and all provisions of this Agreement or other Loan Document that have been breached. 
 6.04 Payment of Obligations. Pay, before
the same shall become delinquent or in default, its Indebtedness and tax liabilities (but excluding Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) that is not in excess of $25,000,000), except where (a) the validity or amount thereof is being
contested in good faith and the applicable Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary shall have instituted appropriate proceedings if required to so contest, (b) the applicable Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary has set aside on its books
adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP, or (c) the failure to make payment pending such contest could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

that is not a Loan Party to do so (individually or collectively with all such failures) could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and take all reasonable action to maintain all rights, privileges, permits, licenses and

Administrative Agent and at a Loan Party’s expense, a Loan Party will be entitled to releases of property included in the Springing Lien Collateral from the Liens securing the Obligations under any one or more of the following circumstances:

 (i) to enable a Loan Party to consummate asset dispositions not prohibited by Section 7.02; or 

(ii) if any Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor is released from its Subsidiary Guarantee, that Subsidiary’s

Party is or is to be a party, in each case, with respect to such actions that the Administrative Agent determines are reasonable in order to achieve or maintain the benefit intended to be conferred by such Springing Lien Collateral in relation to
the costs and other resources reasonably associated with such actions. 
 (h) In the event that any Securitization Transaction to which the
Securitization Entity is a party with the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is recharacterized, the Parent

have a period of 30 days following the later of the date a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower has knowledge that such ratio has not been satisfied at the end of such period and 30 days following the end of such period, to cure such failure
on a pro forma basis by satisfying the following clauses (i) or (ii), or any combination of such clauses, by (i) obtaining an equity contribution which qualifies as equity under GAAP or (ii) incurring Qualifying Subordinated
Indebtedness owing to an Affiliate (other than a Subsidiary) under clause (a) of the definition thereof in a sufficient amount that (y) had the Parent Borrower had such additional equity or Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness proceeds, or

 80 








 
date of such applicable four-quarter period, and (z) had such amount been included in, and increased, Pro Forma EBITDA with respect to such applicable four-quarter period, the Parent
Borrower would have been in compliance with this Section 7.09 for such four-quarter period and, if the Parent Borrower obtains such equity or such Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness proceeds, or any combination thereof, during such
cure period, but in no event shall such period end later than 60 days following the end of the corresponding ending four-quarter period, then it will be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 7.09 as of the end of such four quarter
period. Any such additional equity or Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness that has been added to Pro Forma EBITDA in accordance with this Section 7.09 shall be counted solely as an increase to Pro Forma EBITDA (and not as a reduction to
Indebtedness (directly through repayment or indirectly through netting)) for the purpose of determining the Parent Borrower’s compliance with Section 7.09 and shall be disregarded for any other purpose, including for purposes of
determining the satisfaction of any financial ratio-based condition, pricing or the availability of any basket under Article VII of this Agreement. 

7.10 Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. As of the end of each applicable four-quarter period, commencing with the quarter ending
September 30, 2013, the Parent Borrower shall maintain a ratio of Pro Forma EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense for such four quarter period then ended of at least 2.50 to 1.00; provided, that if at the end of any such applicable
four-quarter period the Parent Borrower shall not have maintained such ratio, the Parent Borrower will have a period of 30 days following the later of the date a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower has knowledge that such ratio has not been
satisfied at the end of such period and 30 days following the end of such period, to cure such failure on a pro forma basis by satisfying the following clauses (i) or (ii), or any combination of such clauses, by (i) obtaining an equity
contribution which qualifies as equity under GAAP or (ii) incurring Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness owing to an Affiliate (other than a Subsidiary) under clause (a) of the definition thereof in a sufficient amount that (y) had
the Parent Borrower had such additional equity or Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness proceeds, or a combination of both, at or prior to the end date of such applicable four-quarter period, and (z) had such amount been included in, and
increased, Pro Forma EBITDA with respect to such applicable four-quarter period, the Parent Borrower would have been in compliance with this Section 7.10 for such four-quarter period and, if the Parent Borrower obtains such equity or
such Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness proceeds, or any combination thereof, during such cure period, but in no event shall such period end later than 60 days following the end of the corresponding ending four-quarter period, then it will be
deemed to be in compliance with this Section 7.10 as of the end of such four quarter period. Any such additional equity or Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness that has been added to Pro Forma EBITDA in accordance with this
Section 7.10 shall be counted solely as an increase to Pro Forma EBITDA (and not as a reduction to Indebtedness (directly through repayment or indirectly through netting)) for the purpose of determining the Parent Borrower’s
compliance with Section 7.10 and shall be disregarded for any other purpose, including for purposes of determining the satisfaction of any financial ratio-based condition or the availability of any basket under Article VII of this
Agreement.

 ARTICLE IX. 

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

9.01 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its
behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof
or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article, other than the provisions of Section 9.06 which provide for the consent of the Borrowers, are solely for the benefit
of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and the Borrowers shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any
other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is
used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. 

9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity
as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise
requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and
generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 

9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein
and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 
 (a) shall not be
subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (b) shall not have any
duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in
writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action
that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and 

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for
the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall 

  
 87 








 
be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative
Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower, a Lender or an L/C Issuer. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in
or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability
for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, the Administrative
Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance
of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in
accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent
may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article
shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in
connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

9.06 Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, each L/C Issuer and the Parent Borrower. Upon
receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, subject to
the consent of the Parent Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall
have 

  
 88 








 
accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the
“Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and each L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that
if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation
Effective Date. 
 (b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender, the Required Lenders may, to the
extent not prohibited by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Parent Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Parent Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been
so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then the Administrative Agent being
removed may on behalf of the Lenders and each L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent from the remaining Lenders; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such
appointment, then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. 

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or any L/C Issuer
under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments owed to
the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each L/C Issuer directly, until such time as
a successor Administrative Agent is appointed as provided for above in this Section 9.06. 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 Loan Documents
(if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Parent Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Parent
Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall continue in effect
for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or
removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 (d) Any resignation or removal of Bank of America as Administrative
Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and
become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in 

  
 89 








 
substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations
of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
 9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.
Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made
its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and
based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any
document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 9.08 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
none of the Arrangers or other agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a
Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder. 
 9.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding
under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to a Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations 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, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent under
Sections 2.03(i) and 2.03(j), 2.09, 10.04 and 10.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b)
to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative
Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and
its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09, 10.04 and 10.05. 

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

  
 90 








 9.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. 

(a) The Administrative Agent is authorized on behalf of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from such
Lenders, from time to time, to take any actions with respect to any Springing Lien Collateral or Collateral Agreements which may be necessary to perfect and maintain the Liens upon the Springing Lien Collateral granted pursuant to the Collateral
Agreements. The Administrative Agent is further authorized (but not obligated) on behalf of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Lenders, from time to time, to take any action in exigent circumstances as
may be reasonably necessary to preserve any rights or privileges of the Lenders under the Collateral Agreements. By accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Collateral Agreements, each Lender hereby agrees to the terms of this
paragraph (a). 
 (b) The Lenders hereby, irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to (i) terminate and release any Lien granted
to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Springing Lien Collateral (a) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments, termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which arrangements satisfactory
to each L/C Issuer in its sole discretion have been made), and the payment in full of all outstanding Obligations payable under this Agreement and under any other Loan Document (other than contingent indemnification obligations);
(b) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (c) pursuant to terms and conditions of any provision of this Agreement
providing for a Lien release with respect to such Springing Lien Collateral; or (d) constituting property leased to any Loan Party under a lease which has expired or has been terminated in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement or is
about to expire and which has not been, and is not intended by such Loan Party to be, renewed or extended; and (ii) release a Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantee and any other applicable Loan Document if
such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release
particular types or items of Springing Lien Collateral pursuant to this paragraph (b). 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything contained in any of
the Loan Documents to the contrary, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, and each Lender hereby agree that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Springing Lien Collateral or to enforce the Subsidiary
Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan
Documents; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent)
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be)
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.09 (subject to the terms of Section 2.13), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or
appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in
clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by
the Required Lenders. By accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Collateral Agreements, each Lender hereby agrees to the terms of this paragraph (c). 

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

Lenders and the Borrowers or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may be, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given;
provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall: 
 (a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or
reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 8.02) without the written consent of such Lender; 
 (b) postpone any
date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly

clause (iv) of the second proviso to this Section 10.01) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided,
however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of any Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate; 

(d) change Section 2.12(b) or 2.13 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written
consent of each Lender; 
 (e) change any provision of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision
hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; or 

(f) release or terminate, as the case may be all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantee or all or substantially all of the Springing
Lien Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender, except as permitted pursuant to Section 9.10 (in which case such release or termination, as applicable may be evidenced by the Administrative Agent signing alone); 

and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by an L/C Issuer in addition to the Lenders required
above, affect the rights or duties of such L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any Issuer Document relating to any Letter of Credit 

  
 92 








 
issued or to be issued by it; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights
or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement; (iii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (iv) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the respective parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which 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, nor the principal amount of any Loan or any interest thereon,
or any other amounts payable hereunder owed to such Defaulting Lender be reduced or the date for payment thereof be extended, without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders
or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

notices to any Lender or L/C 

  
 93 








 
Issuer pursuant to Article II if such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic
communication. The Administrative Agent or any Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of
such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 
 Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes,
(i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as
available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at
the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as
described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY,
INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT-RELATED PERSONS IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE
PLATFORM. In no event shall the Agent-Related Persons have any liability to any Borrower, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise)
arising out of any Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent-Related Person; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent-Related Person have any liability to
any Borrower, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 

(d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, and the Swing Line Lender may change its
address, telecopier, e-mail address or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each Lender may change its address, telecopier, e-mail address or telephone number for notices and other
communications hereunder by notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer, and the Swing Line Lender. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent
has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore,
each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform
in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state 

  
 94 








 
securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material
non-public information with respect to any Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws. 
 (e)
Effectiveness of Electronic Copies of Loan Documents and Signatures. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including any amendment or other modification and any waiver or consent) and any executed signature pages hereto or thereto may
be delivered by facsimile or other electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) imaging means. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed
originals and shall be binding on the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided,
however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by facsimile or other electronic imaging means. 

(f) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any
notices (including telephonic Loan Notices, Letter of Credit Applications and Swing Line Loan Notices if immediately followed by a corresponding Loan Notice in writing) purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower even if (i) such notices
were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The
Borrowers shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower. All telephonic notices
to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 

10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer to exercise, and no delay
by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein or therein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers
and privileges provided by law. 
 10.04 Attorney Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Parent Borrower agrees (a) to pay or
reimburse the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent or
other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated), the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney
Costs, and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and each Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or remedies under this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief
Law), including all Attorney Costs; provided, however, that no Borrower shall be required to reimburse a Defaulting Lender or its Related Parties for, and neither a Defaulting Lender nor any of its Related Parties shall be entitled to be


  
 95 








 
reimbursed for, any costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of such Defaulting Lender or any of its Related Parties in effecting its cure from being a Defaulting Lender or the replacement or
removal of such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or matters incidental to any of the foregoing. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related thereto, and
other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and the cost of independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender. The
agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments and repayment of all the other Obligations. 
 10.05
Indemnification by the Borrowers; Reimbursement and Indemnification by Lenders. 
 (a) The Borrowers shall indemnify each
Agent-Related Person, each Lender and each L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (other than the
Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, any Lender or the Swing Line Lender) arising out of, or relating to, (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby,
or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the relationship of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders under this Agreement, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent and its Related
Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under
a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned
or operated by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to
any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT
CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or related expenses are caused by such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence, breach in bad faith under any Loan Document, willful misconduct or knowingly unlawful conduct, or that are incurred by an Indemnitee that is a
Defaulting Lender and such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are proximately cause by conduct, acts or omissions described in clauses (a), (b), or (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender,” or for any loss
asserted against it by another Indemnitee. 
 As used in this Section 10.05, the following terms having the meanings set
forth below: 
 “Environmental Liability” means any liability, contingent or otherwise (including any
liability for damages, costs of environmental remediation, fines, penalties or indemnities), of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries directly or indirectly resulting from or based upon (a) violation of any Environmental Law, (b) the
generation, use, handling, transportation, storage, treatment or disposal of any Hazardous Materials, (c) exposure to any Hazardous Materials, (d) the release or threatened release of any 

  
 96

foregoing. 
 “Hazardous Materials” means all explosive or radioactive substances or wastes and all
hazardous or toxic substances, wastes or other pollutants, including petroleum or petroleum distillates, asbestos or asbestos-containing materials, polychlorinated biphenyls, radon gas, infectious or medical wastes and all other substances or wastes
of any nature regulated pursuant to any Environmental Law. 
 (b) Reimbursement and Indemnification by Lenders. 

(i) Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer and each Related Party
(each such Person being called an “Agent/Issuer-Related Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrowers and without limiting the obligations of the Borrowers to do so), pro rata, according to each
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) and hold harmless each Agent/Issuer-Related Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and related expenses (including Attorney Costs), incurred by or against the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer acting in its capacity as such, or incurred by or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the
Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity, arising out of or relating to (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the relationship of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, and the Lenders under this Agreement, or the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents; (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such
demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any
Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any
other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Borrower, and regardless of whether any Agent/Issuer-Related Indemnitee is a party thereto, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE
COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE AGENT/ISSUER-RELATED INDEMNITEE (all of the foregoing, collectively, “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided however that no Lender shall be liable for the
payment to an Agent/Issuer-Related Indemnitee of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from any such Person’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or knowingly unlawful conduct; and provided, further, that no action taken by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. 

(ii) Without limitation of the foregoing, to the extent that a Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount
required under Section 10.04 or subsection (a) of this Section 10.05 to be paid by it to an Agent/Issuer-Related Indemnitee, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent/Issuer-Related


  
 97 








 
Indemnitee such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that
the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any
of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. 
 (iii) The obligations
of the Lenders under this subsection (b) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(f). 
 (c) Waiver of
Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither any Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall assert, and each of them hereby waives, any claim against any of the other of them, on any theory of liability, for
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided however that the foregoing limitation shall not be deemed to impair or affect the indemnification obligations of the
Borrowers under this Agreement to the extent such indemnification obligations are with respect to losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee)
incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person that is neither an Indemnitee nor the Borrowers. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other
materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that this
sentence shall not be deemed to limit an Indemnitee’s obligations in Section 10.08. 
 (d) Payments. All amounts due
from the Borrowers under Section 10.04 or this Section 10.05 shall be payable not later than thirty Business Days after demand therefor and the Parent Borrower’s receipt of (i) the requesting Person’s
certification that it is owed amounts under Section 10.04 or Section 10.05(a), as the case may be, and the basis thereof, and (ii) reasonably detailed invoices or statements relating thereto. 

(e) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, an L/C Issuer and the Swing
Line Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 

10.06 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment is made by or on behalf of any Borrower to the Administrative Agent, an L/C
Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, an L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, an L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment


  
 98 








 
had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, upon demand its applicable
share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds
Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

10.07 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither any Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way
of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other
attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). 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, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders) any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time
assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in L/C Obligations and in
Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(i) Minimum Amounts. 

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the
time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to an Eligible Assignee that is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for
this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and
Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the
Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Parent Borrower otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent
assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes
of determining whether such minimum amount has been met. 

  
 99 








 (ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an
assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the Swing Line Lender’s
rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans. 
 (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for
any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition: 
 (A) the consent of
the Parent Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (2) such assignment is to (x) a Lender,
(y) an Affiliate of a Lender that is financially capable of performing the obligations of a Lender under this Agreement or (z) an Approved Fund that is financially capable of performing the obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and
that agrees with the assignor to be bound by the Assignee Conditions; 
 (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; 

(C) the consent of each L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any
assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and 

(D) the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any
assignment of Commitments. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility to ensure compliance with, or to inquire as to
whether an assignee is in compliance with, the requirement set forth in Section 10.07(b)(iii)(A) as to financial capacity or the requirement set forth in Section 10.07(b)(iii)(A) that the assignee agree to be bound by the
Assignee Conditions, and responsibility for compliance with such requirements shall be the responsibility of the assigning Lender. 

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500, which amount shall not be for the account of, or reimbursable from, directly or indirectly, any Borrower except as otherwise provided in
Section 10.15; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

  
 100 








 (v) No Assignment to a Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to any
Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries. 
 (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such
assignment shall be made to a natural person. 
 (vii) No Assignment to Defaulting Lenders. No such assignment shall
be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause. 

(viii) Certain Additional Payments. 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 the 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 the Parent Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata 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 the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in
Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. 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. 

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective
date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of
the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05
with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a
waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, a Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. If the assigning Lender holds a
Note and has assigned all of its Commitment, it shall promptly deliver such Note to the Parent Borrower marked “Cancelled” or sign a lost note affidavit (which shall include customary indemnification of the Borrowers) with respect thereto
(provided however that, notwithstanding herein to the contrary, failure to do so will not affect the validity of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section. 

  
 101 








 (c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the
Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive,
and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice
to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by each
Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice, and the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of the Register upon the Parent Borrower’s or such Lender’s request. 

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower, any L/C Issuer or the
Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or any of their Affiliates, or any Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all
or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it);
provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the
Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.01(e) (it being understood that the documentation
required under Section 3.01(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent
permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. 

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the
Parent Borrower’s prior written consent. 
 (f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time assign, pledge or grant a security
interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no
such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto; and provided, further, all costs, fees and expenses related to, or
in connection with, any such pledge or grant shall be for the sole account of such Lender. 

  
 102 








 (g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,”
“signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption 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 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. 

(h) Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at
any time a Lender that is an L/C Issuer, and/or the Swing Line Lender, assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, such assigning Lender may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Parent Borrower and the
Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Parent Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as an L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Parent Borrower shall be entitled to
appoint from among the Lenders one or more successor L/C Issuers or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by any Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the resigning L/C Issuer
or Swing Line Lender. If a Lender resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as
L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If a Lender resigns
as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders
to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender, and acceptance by such successor of such
appointment, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue
letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the resigning L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the resigning L/C Issuer,
with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
 10.08 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, Swing Line Lender and
the Lenders (on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates or its other Related Parties, and each of its and their directors, officers, agents, attorneys, employees and representatives) agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as
defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ and other Related Parties’, directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being
understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to (and will agree to) keep such Information confidential on the terms provided in this Section); (b) to
the extent requested by any regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (and each such case, such Person shall endeavor to notify the Parent Borrower of such
occurrence as soon as reasonably possible following the service of any such process on such Person); (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding
relating to this  

  
 103 








 
Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or
Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual
counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative, credit insurance transaction, or other substantially similar transaction relating to the obligations of any Borrower, in each case, provided that
each such Person first agrees to hold, and cause to be held, such Information in confidence on the terms provided in this Section and such Person is not a competitor or Affiliate thereof of a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is engaged in
the storage, transportation and/or distribution of hydrocarbons as its primary business (and each Lender may rely on such Person’s representation as to the same); (g) with the consent of the Parent Borrower; (h) to the extent such
Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower; or
(i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s or its Affiliates’ investment portfolio in
connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or its Affiliates. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from a Borrower relating to such Borrower or its business, other than any such
information available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from a Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly
identified in writing at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Swing Line Lenders and the L/C Issuers acknowledges that (a) the Information may
include material non-public information concerning a Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material
non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws. 
 10.09
Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to any
Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by each Borrower and the other Loan Parties to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final)
at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of a Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all Obligations then due and owing to such Lender; 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 the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall
provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Parent Borrower or the
applicable Loan Party and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 

  
 104 








 10.10 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any
Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum amount, or be computed at a rate that exceeds the maximum rate, of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the
“Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any Lender shall contract for, charge, receive, reserve or take interest in an amount or at a rate that exceeds the Maximum
Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrower, and in no event shall any Borrower or any other Person ever be liable for unearned interest or
ever be required to pay interest in excess of the Maximum Rate. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, received, reserved or taken by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or a Lender exceeds the
Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof,
and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations. If the Laws of the State of Texas are applicable for purposes of determining the Maximum
Rate, then that term means the “indicated rate ceiling” from time to time in effect under Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code. Each Borrower agrees that Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code does not apply to any Borrowing.

 10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate
counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic imaging means), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

10.12 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the
parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions
of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each
Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 

10.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or
other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent,
the L/C Issuers and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers or any Lender may have had notice
or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of any Credit Extension. 
 10.14 Severability. Any provision of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions
hereof or thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

  
 105 








 10.15 Replacement and Removal of Lenders. (a) If (1) any Lender is a Defaulting
Lender; or (2) the Parent Borrower has a right to remove or replace a Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(a) or Section 3.06(b) or under any other circumstances set forth in this Agreement providing that the Parent Borrower
shall have the right to remove or replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement, the Parent Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (i) remove such Lender by terminating such Lender’s Commitment or
(ii) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Commitment (without payment by such Lender of any assignment fee) pursuant to Section 10.07(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees procured by the Parent
Borrower; provided, however, that if the Parent Borrower elects to exercise such right with respect to any Lender pursuant to Section 3.06(b), it shall be obligated to remove or replace, as the case may be, all Lenders that
have made similar requests for compensation pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.04. As a condition to the effectiveness of any such assignment or termination: 

(w) in the event of an assignment of a Lender’s Commitment, (i) the Parent Borrower shall pay in full the assignment
fee specified in Section 10.07(b)(iv) unless otherwise paid by the replacement Lender or waived by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal
of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees (subject to Section 2.16) and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the
assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), 

(x) in the event of a termination of a Lender’s Commitment which has not been assigned, (i) pay in full all
principal, interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Lender through the date of termination or assignment (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05, which amounts shall be paid when billed in accordance with such
Section), (ii) deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount equal to the aggregate of the Swing Line Lender’s and each L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure resulting from the termination of the Commitment of such Lender
(determined after giving effect to any reallocation of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations outstanding on the date of such termination to the remaining Lenders to the extent of the availability of the
Commitments of the remaining Lenders after giving effect to all such terminations of Commitments on such date), and (iii) provide written notice terminating such Lender’s Commitment, 

(y) if the Lender being replaced or removed is an L/C Issuer, another L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution
for the Letters of Credit, if any, issued by such L/C Issuer that remain outstanding or the Parent Borrower shall make other arrangements satisfactory to the L/C Issuer being replaced or removed to effectively assume its obligations with respect to
such Letters of Credit or eliminate its exposure thereto, and 
 (z) if the Lender being replaced or removed is the Swing
Line Lender, upon the agreement of a Lender to become the successor Swing Line Lender (made at the request of the Parent Borrower with the consent of the Administrative Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), such Lender
shall become the Swing Line Lender hereunder. 

  
 106 








 Any Lender being replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such
Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Credit Extensions. The Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule 2.01, which shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect changes in the identities of the Lenders and
adjustments of their respective Commitments and/or Pro Rata Shares resulting from any such removal or replacement. 
 (b) In order to make
all the Lenders’ interests in any outstanding Credit Extensions ratable in accordance with any revised Pro Rata Shares after giving effect to the removal or replacement of a Lender, each Borrower shall pay or prepay, if necessary, on the
effective date thereof, all outstanding Loans of all Lenders owed by it, and shall be responsible for payment of any amounts due under Section 3.05. Each Borrower may then request Loans from the Lenders in accordance with their revised
Pro Rata Shares. If agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), any Borrower may net any payments required hereunder against any funds being provided by any Lender or Eligible
Assignee replacing a terminating Lender, and in such case the effect for purposes of this Agreement shall be the same as if separate transfers of funds had been made with respect thereto. 

(c) If any Lender does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any Loan Document that requires the
consent of each Lender and that has been approved by the Required Lenders, the Parent Borrower may replace such non-consenting Lender in accordance with this Section 10.15; provided that such amendment, waiver, consent or release is
approved by the assignee of such non-consenting Lender and is effected as a result of such assignment (together with all other such assignments required by a Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.15(c) with respect to such proposed amendment,
waiver, consent or release). 
 (d) This section shall supersede any provision in Section 10.01 to the contrary. 

10.16 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Venue. 

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THEREIN EXPRESSLY PROVIDED) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN

ARTICLE XI. 
 SUBSIDIARY
GUARANTEE 
 11.01 Subsidiary Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (the “Subsidiary Guarantee”), as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the prompt and complete payment in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration
or otherwise, of all Obligations of each Borrower, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, whether or not allowed or allowable in an Insolvency Proceeding, strictly in accordance with the terms thereof, including obligations
which, but for an automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief law or other proceeding, would become due (such obligations being hereinafter referred to as the “Subsidiary Guaranteed
Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including the legal fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Lender in enforcing any rights under the Subsidiary Guarantee, whether
or not allowed or allowable in an Insolvency Proceeding. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby further agree that if any of the Obligations are not paid in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, the Subsidiary Guarantors
will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when , whether at
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. No amendment or modification of the Subsidiary Guarantee may be made without the prior written consent of each Subsidiary Guarantor.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the obligations of the each Subsidiary Guarantor under the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations
under the Subsidiary Guarantee subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, United States Code) or any comparable provisions of any applicable Debtor Relief Law. 

11.02 Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, or any set-off or
application of funds of any Subsidiary Guarantor by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against any Borrower or
against any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for the payment of the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall any Subsidiary Guarantor seek any reimbursement or contribution from
any Borrower in respect of payments made by the Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, until all Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full, no Letters of Credit remain outstanding and the 

  
 109 








 
Aggregate Commitments have expired or been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Subsidiary
Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, any Letter of Credit remains outstanding or the Aggregate Commitments have not expired or been terminated, such amount shall be held by such Subsidiary Guarantor, in trust for the
Administrative Agent and each Lender, segregated from other funds of such Subsidiary Guarantor and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Subsidiary Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, in the exact form received by such Subsidiary Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Subsidiary Guarantor, if required), to be applied against the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations, whether mature or unmatured, in such order as any
Lender may determine. 
 11.03 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor
shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against such Subsidiary Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by any Subsidiary Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Subsidiary
Guaranteed Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, and any of the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations continued, and the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations,
or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified,
accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and this Agreement, and any Note and any other document in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in
part, as any Lender may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations may be sold,
exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or security interest at any time held by it as security for the Subsidiary
Guaranteed Obligations or for this Subsidiary Guarantee or any property subject thereto.  
 11.04 Guarantee Absolute and
Unconditional. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby represents and warrants, with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Article V (except to the extent that such representation or warranty is provided on a consolidated basis) as
they relate to such Subsidiary Guarantor are true and correct in all material respects, and hereby covenants and agrees, with respect to the covenants contained in Articles VI and VII (except in the case of the covenants set forth in Sections
6.01, 6.02 and 6.03) as they relate to such Subsidiary Guarantor, to comply with the covenants contained therein. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the
Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon this Subsidiary Guarantee or acceptance of this Subsidiary Guarantee, the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall
conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Subsidiary Guarantee; and all dealings between the Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as
applicable, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Subsidiary Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and all notices
whatsoever, including notice of default or nonpayment, to or upon any Borrower, such Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations. This Subsidiary Guarantee shall be construed as a
continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and not of collection without

regard to, and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby expressly waives any defenses to its obligations hereunder based upon (a) the value, genuineness, validity or enforceability of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, any Note, any of the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations or any other Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the
Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including any increase in the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or any of its
Subsidiaries or otherwise, (c) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Borrower against the Administrative Agent or any Lender,
(d) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Loan Documents, being taken or omitted, (e) any collateral security granted to, or in favor of,
the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders as security for any of the Obligations failing to attach or be perfected, (f) any of the Obligations being determined to be void or voidable (including for the benefit of any creditor of any
Subsidiary Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including any creditor of any Subsidiary Guarantor), or (g) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Borrower or any Subsidiary
Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any Borrower for the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations, or of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Subsidiary Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any
other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and each Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any Borrower
or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, to pursue such
other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Borrower or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security, or guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Subsidiary Guarantor of any liability hereunder,
and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against each Subsidiary Guarantor. 

11.05 Reinstatement. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Subsidiary Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or
shall automatically be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations is avoided, rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Borrower or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Borrower or any
substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it will reimburse the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses
(including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any
claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. 

11.06 Payments. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Borrowers hereby agrees that the Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations will be
paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars as expressed to be payable hereunder and under any Note, in immediately available funds at the office of the
Administrative Agent specified in Section 10.02. 

  
 111 








 11.07 Remedies. The Subsidiary Guarantors agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, the Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.02 (and shall be deemed
to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Section 8.02) for purposes of Section 11.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or
preventing the Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or the Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), the Obligations (whether
or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of Section 11.01. 

11.08 Rights of Contribution. Subject to Section 11.02 above and the last two sentences of this Section 11.08,
the Subsidiary Guarantors and Borrowers agree among themselves that, in connection with payments made hereunder, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall have contribution rights against the Borrowers and other Subsidiary Guarantors as permitted under
applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, but subject to Section 11.02 above and the last two sentences of this Section 11.08, (a) to the extent any Subsidiary Guarantor is required, by reason of its obligations
hereunder, to pay to the Administrative Agent or any Lender an amount greater than the amount of value (as determined in accordance with any applicable Debtor Relief Law) actually made available to or for the benefit of such Subsidiary Guarantor on
account of the Credit Agreement, this Subsidiary Guarantee or any other Loan Document, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall have an enforceable right of contribution against the applicable Borrower and the remaining Subsidiary Guarantors, and the
applicable Borrower and the remaining Subsidiary Guarantors shall be jointly and severally liable for repayment of the full amount of such excess payment; (b) to the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor would, but for the operation of this
Section 11.08 and by reason of its obligations hereunder or its obligations to other Subsidiary Guarantors herein, be rendered insolvent for any purpose under any applicable Debtor Relief Laws (or become no longer Solvent), such
Subsidiary Guarantor shall have an enforceable right of contribution against the applicable Borrower and the remaining Subsidiary Guarantors, and the applicable Borrower and the remaining Subsidiary Guarantors shall be jointly and severally liable
for repayment of, an amount at least equal to the amount necessary to make such Subsidiary Guarantor Solvent and to prevent such Subsidiary Guarantor from having been rendered insolvent by reason of the incurrence of any such obligations; and
(c) to the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor would, but for the operation of this Section 11.08, be rendered insolvent under any Debtor Relief Law (or become no longer Solvent) by reason of its incurring of obligations to any
other Subsidiary Guarantor under the foregoing provisions of Section 11.08(a) and (b), such Subsidiary Guarantor shall, in turn, have rights of contribution, to the full extent provided in the foregoing provisions of
Section 11.08(a) and (b), against the applicable Borrower and the remaining Subsidiary Guarantors, such that all obligations of all of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder and under this Section 11.08 shall be allocated
in a manner such that no Subsidiary Guarantor shall be rendered insolvent for any purpose under any applicable Debtor Relief Law by reason of its incurrence of such obligations. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, all such
contribution rights contained in this Section 11.08 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantors under the Loan Documents and no Subsidiary Guarantor shall exercise such rights of
contribution until all Obligations have been paid in full, the Letters of Credit are no longer outstanding and the Commitments have expired or been terminated. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that such Subsidiary Guarantor shall have no
right of 

  
 112 








 
recourse to security for the obligations, except through the exercise of rights of subrogation to the extent permitted under Section 11.02 and only after all Obligations have been
paid in full, the Letters of Credit are no longer outstanding and the Aggregate Commitments have expired or been terminated. 
 11.09
Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a Subsidiary Guarantee Joinder and other required documents as provided in Section 6.12, such Person shall be a Subsidiary Guarantor, shall be a party
hereto as if an original signatory hereto and shall execute and deliver, if applicable, such documents required by Section 6.13, as provided therein.  

ARTICLE XII. 

CO-BORROWER GUARANTEE 

12.01 Co-Borrower Guarantee. Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders (the “Borrower Guarantee”), as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the prompt and complete payment in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all
Obligations of the other Borrower, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, whether or not allowed or allowable in an Insolvency Proceeding, strictly in accordance with the terms thereof, including obligations which, but for an
automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief law or other proceeding, would become due (such obligations being hereinafter referred to as the “Borrower Obligations”), and agrees
to pay any and all expenses (including the legal fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Lender in enforcing any rights under the Borrower Guarantee, whether or not allowed or allowable in an
Insolvency Proceeding. Each Borrower hereby further agrees that if any of the Obligations are not paid in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such Borrower will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same,
without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when , whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, in
accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
 12.02 Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made
by a Borrower hereunder, or any set-off or application of funds of any Borrower by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, such Borrower shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against
the other Borrower or against any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for the payment of the Borrower Obligations, nor shall either Borrower seek any reimbursement or contribution from
the other Borrower in respect of payments made by such Borrower hereunder, until all Borrower Obligations are paid in full, no Letters of Credit remain outstanding and the Aggregate Commitments have expired or been terminated. If any amount shall be
paid to either Borrower on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Borrower Obligations shall not have been paid in full, any Letter of Credit remains outstanding or the Aggregate Commitments have not expired or been
terminated, such amount shall be held by such Borrower, in trust for the Administrative Agent and each Lender, segregated from other funds of such Borrower and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Borrower, be turned over to the Administrative
Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in the exact form received by such Borrower (duly indorsed by such Borrower, if required), to be applied against the Borrower Obligations, whether mature or unmatured, in
such order as any Lender may determine.  

  
 113 








 12.03 Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Borrower waives any and all notice of the
creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Borrower Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon this Borrower Guarantee or acceptance of this Borrower Guarantee, the Borrower Obligations,
and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Borrower Guarantee; and all dealings between the Borrowers, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable,
on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Borrower Guarantee. Each Borrower waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and all notices whatsoever, including notice of
default or nonpayment, to or upon such Borrower, the other Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to the Borrower Obligations. This Borrower Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and
not of collection without regard to, and each Borrower hereby expressly waives any defenses to its obligations hereunder based upon (a) the value, genuineness, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any Note,
any of the Borrower Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (b) any change in the time, manner or
place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Borrower Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any
Loan Document, including any increase in the Borrower Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise, (c) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of
payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by either Borrower against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (d) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, or any other
agreement or instrument referred to in the Loan Documents, being taken or omitted, (e) any collateral security granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders as security for any of the Obligations failing to
attach or be perfected, (f) any of the Obligations being determined to be void or voidable (including for the benefit of any creditor of either Borrower) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including any creditor of either
Borrower), or (g) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of either Borrower) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of either Borrower for the Borrower
Obligations, or of either Borrower under this Borrower Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against either Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender may, but shall be under no
obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the other Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Borrower Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by
the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the other Borrower or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security, or guarantee or right of
offset, shall not relieve either Borrower of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against each
Borrower.  
 12.04 Reinstatement. The obligations of each Borrower under this Borrower Guarantee shall continue to be
effective, or shall automatically be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Borrower Obligations is avoided, rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Borrower or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, either Borrower or any
substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as 

  
 114 








 
though such payments had not been made. Each Borrower agrees that it will reimburse the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including the
reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that
such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. 
 12.05
Remedies. Each Borrower agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as between the Borrowers, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, the Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and
payable as provided in Section 8.02 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Section 8.02) for purposes of Section 12.01 notwithstanding any stay,
injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing the Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or the Obligations being deemed to have
become automatically due and payable), the Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Borrowers for purposes of Section 12.01. 

12.06 Rights of Contribution. Subject to 12.02 above and the last two sentences of this Section 12.06, the Borrowers
agree among themselves that, in connection with payments made hereunder, each Borrower shall have contribution rights against the other Borrower as permitted under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, but subject to
Section 12.02 above and the last two sentences of this Section 12.06, (a) to the extent either Borrower is required, by reason of its obligations hereunder, to pay to the Administrative Agent or any Lender an amount
greater than the amount of value (as determined in accordance with any applicable Debtor Relief Law) actually made available to or for the benefit of such Borrower on account of the Credit Agreement, this Borrower Guarantee or any other Loan
Document, such Borrower shall have an enforceable right of contribution against the other Borrower, and the other Borrower shall be liable for repayment of the full amount of such excess payment; (b) to the extent that either Borrower would,
but for the operation of this Section 12.06 and by reason of its obligations hereunder or its obligations to other Borrower herein, be rendered insolvent for any purpose under any applicable Debtor Relief Laws (or become no longer
Solvent), such Borrower shall have an enforceable right of contribution against the other Borrower, and the remaining Borrower shall be liable for repayment of, an amount at least equal to the amount necessary to make such Borrower Solvent and to
prevent such Borrower from having been rendered insolvent by reason of the incurrence of any such obligations; and (c) to the extent that either Borrower would, but for the operation of this Section 12.06, be rendered insolvent
under any Debtor Relief Law (or become no longer Solvent) by reason of its incurring of obligations to the other Borrower under the foregoing provisions of Section 12.06(a) and (b), such Borrower shall, in turn, have rights of
contribution, to the full extent provided in the foregoing provisions of Section 12.06(a) and (b), against the remaining Borrower, such that all obligations of all of the Borrowers hereunder and under this
Section 12.06 shall be allocated in a manner such that no Borrower shall be rendered insolvent for any purpose under any applicable Debtor Relief Law by reason of its incurrence of such obligations. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, all such contribution rights contained in this Section 12.06 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the obligations of such Borrower under the Loan Documents and no Borrower shall exercise such
rights of contribution until all Obligations have been paid in full, the Letters of Credit are no longer outstanding and the Commitments have expired or been terminated. Each Borrower further agrees that such Borrower shall have no right of recourse
to security for the obligations, except through the exercise of rights of subrogation to the extent permitted under Section 12.02 and only after all Obligations have been paid in full, the Letters of Credit are no longer outstanding and
the Aggregate Commitments have expired or been terminated.

	$                    	  	            , 20    

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (the “Borrower”), hereby promises to
pay to the order of                      or its permitted registered assigns (the “Lender”), in accordance with the
provisions of the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined) the principal amount of each Loan from time to time made by the Lender to the Borrower under that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of
                 , 2013 (as amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified in writing from time to time, the “Credit
Agreement;” the terms defined therein being used herein as therein defined), among the Borrowers (as therein defined), the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, the Lenders from time to time party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as
Administrative Agent, an L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. 
 The Borrower promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal
amount of each Loan from the date of such Loan until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates, and at such times as are specified in the Credit Agreement. All payments of principal of and interest on this Note shall be made to
the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender in Dollars in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office. If any amount is not paid in full when due hereunder, such unpaid amount shall bear interest, to be paid upon

This Note is one of the Notes referred to in the Credit Agreement, is entitled to the benefits thereof and is subject to optional prepayment
in whole or in part as provided therein. This Note may be secured and is guaranteed as provided in the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents. Reference is hereby made to the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents for a description of the

was granted and the rights of the holder of this Note in respect thereof. During the continuance of one or more of the Events of Default specified in the Credit Agreement, all amounts then remaining unpaid on this Note shall become, or may be
declared to be, immediately due and payable all as provided in the Credit Agreement. Loans made by the Lender shall be evidenced by one or more loan accounts or records maintained by the Lender in the ordinary course of business. The Lender may also
