to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1% and (c) the Eurodollar Rate that would be calculated as of such day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, as
of the next preceding Business Day) in respect of a proposed Eurodollar Loan with a one-month Interest Period plus 1.0%. Any change in the ABR due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or such Eurodollar Rate shall
be effective as of the opening of business on the day of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or such Eurodollar Rate, respectively. 
 “ABR Loans”: Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the ABR. 
 “Accounting Changes”: as defined in the definition of GAAP. 

“Acquired Debt”: Indebtedness of a Person existing at the time the Person is acquired by, or merges with or into the MLP

 “Additional Assets”: all or substantially all of the assets of a Permitted Business, or Capital Stock of
another Person engaged in a Permitted Business that will, on the date of acquisition, be a Restricted Subsidiary, or other non-current assets (other than cash and Cash Equivalents or securities (including Capital Stock)) that are to be used in a

 “Applicable Pricing Grid”: the table set forth below: 
  

													
	 Consolidated Leverage Ratio
	  	Applicable Margin for

	 < 2.00:1.00
	  	 	2.00	% 	 	 	1.00	% 	 	 	0.40	% 

 For the purposes of the Applicable Pricing Grid, changes in the Applicable Margin resulting from changes
in the Consolidated Leverage Ratio shall become effective on the date (the “Adjustment Date”) that is three Business Days after the date on which financial statements are delivered to the Lenders pursuant to Section 6.1
and shall remain in effect until the next change to be effected pursuant to this paragraph. If any financial statements referred to above are not delivered within the time periods specified in Section 6.1, then, until the date that is

Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.9. 
 (b) The
Borrowers shall repay all outstanding Revolving Loans on the Revolving Termination Date.

from a Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof. Each Revolving Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
applicable Borrower at the Funding Office prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by such Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the

received by the Administrative Agent. 
 2.3 Swing line Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
the Swing line Lender agrees to make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Borrowers under the Revolving Commitments from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period by making swing line loans (“Swing line

outstanding at any time, when aggregated with the Swing line Lender’s other outstanding Revolving Loans, may exceed the Swing line Commitment then in effect) and (ii) no Borrower shall request, and the Swing line Lender shall not make, any
Swing line Loan if, after giving effect to the making of such Swing line Loan, the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero. During the Revolving Commitment Period, the Borrowers may use the Swing line
Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Swing line Loans shall be ABR Loans only. 
 (b) The Borrowers shall repay to the Swing line Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swing line Loan on the earlier of (i) the Revolving Termination Date and (i) the date occurring

make Swing line Loans it shall give the Swing line Lender irrevocable telephonic notice confirmed promptly in writing (which telephonic notice must be received by the Swing line Lender not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the
proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (i) the amount to be borrowed and (ii) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period). Each borrowing under the Swing line Commitment shall be in an
amount equal to $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Not later than 3:00 P.M., 

  
 36 









 
New York City time, on the Borrowing Date specified in a notice in respect of Swing line Loans, the Swing line Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office an
amount in immediately available funds equal to the amount of the Swing line Loan to be made by the Swing line Lender. The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such Swing line Loan available to the applicable Borrower on such Borrowing
Date by depositing such proceeds in the account of such Borrower with the Administrative Agent on such Borrowing Date in immediately available funds. 
 (b) The Swing line Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion may, on behalf of the Borrowers (which hereby irrevocably direct the Swing line Lender to act on its
behalf), on one Business Days’ notice given by the Swing line Lender no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, request each Revolving Lender to make, and each Revolving Lender hereby agrees to make, a Revolving Loan, in an amount equal
to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swing line Loans (the “Refunded Swing line Loans”) outstanding on the date of such notice, to repay the Swing line Lender. Each Revolving Lender
shall make the amount of such Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office in immediately available funds, not later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day after the date of such notice. The proceeds
of such Revolving Loans shall be immediately made available by the Administrative Agent to the Swing line Lender for application by the Swing line Lender to the repayment of the Refunded Swing line Loans. The Borrowers irrevocably authorize the
Swing line Lender to charge the Borrowers’ accounts with the Administrative Agent (up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately pay the amount of such Refunded Swing line Loans to the extent amounts received from the
Revolving Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full such Refunded Swing line Loans. 
 (c) If prior to the time a Revolving
Loan would have otherwise been made pursuant to Section 2.4(b), one of the events described in Section 8(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to any Borrower or if for any other reason, as determined by the
Swing line Lender in its sole discretion, Revolving Loans may not be made as contemplated by Section 2.4(b), each Revolving Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been made pursuant to the notice referred to in
Section 2.4(b), purchase for cash an undivided participating interest in the then outstanding Swing line Loans by paying to the Swing line Lender an amount (the “Swing line Participation Amount”) equal to (i) such
Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage times (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Swing line Loans then outstanding that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans. 

(d) Whenever, at any time after the Swing line Lender has received from any Revolving Lender such Lender’s Swing line Participation
Amount, the Swing line Lender receives any payment on account of the Swing line Loans, the Swing line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Swing line Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the
period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not
sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swing line Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing line Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Lender will return
to the Swing line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swing line Lender.

Section 2.4(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.4(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment,

failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any

effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a whole multiple thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving
Commitments then in effect.

elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more
than six Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time. 
 2.11 Interest Rates and Payment Dates.
(a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin. 

(b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin. 

(c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at
the Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of
this Section 2.11 plus 2% or (y) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the rate applicable to ABR Loans plus 2%, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any commitment
fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans plus 2%, in
each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment). 

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to
paragraph (c) of this Section 2.11 shall be payable from time to time on demand. 
 2.12 Computation
of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to ABR Loans the rate of interest on which is calculated on the
basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrowers’ Agent and
the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on
which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrowers’ Agent and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. 

  
 40 









 (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrowers’ Agent, deliver to the Borrowers’ Agent a
statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.11(a). 
 2.13 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and
reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or 
 (b) the Administrative Agent
shall have received notice from the Majority Revolving Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such
Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, 
 the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or
telephonic notice thereof to the Borrowers’ Agent and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as
ABR Loans, (y) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the
then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall any Borrower have the right to convert Loans to Eurodollar Loans.

 2.14 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by a Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment
by a Borrower on account of any commitment fee and any reduction of the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Percentages, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders.

 (b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by a Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans
shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders. 
 (c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made
prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such


  
 41 









 
payments to each relevant Lender promptly upon receipt in like funds as received, net of any amounts owing by such Lender pursuant to Section 9.7. If any payment hereunder (other than
payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a
Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make
the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may,
in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph
shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall
also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans, on demand, from the applicable Borrower. 
 (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrowers’ Agent prior to the date of any payment due to be made by a Borrower hereunder that such Borrower will not
make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the
Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein
shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrowers. 
 2.15 Requirements of
Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or
other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof: 

  
 42 









 (i) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit,
compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit (or participations therein) by, or any other acquisition of funds
by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate; or 

(ii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Credit Party, by an amount that such Lender or other Credit Party deems to be material, of making, converting
into, continuing or maintaining Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrowers shall promptly pay such Lender or such other Credit Party,
upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such other Credit Party for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender or such other Credit Party becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts
pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrowers’ Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or
liquidity requirements or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having
the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under
or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with
respect to capital adequacy or liquidity requirements) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrowers’ Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written
request therefor, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on
Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and (ii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests,
rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in Requirements of Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or
implemented. 
 (d) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.15 submitted by
any Lender to the Borrowers’ Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.15, no Borrower shall be required to
compensate a 

  
 43 









 
Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers’ Agent of such Lender’s
intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations
of the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, the above provisions of this Section 2.15 shall not apply to Taxes, which shall be governed
exclusively by Section 2.16. 
 2.16 Taxes. (a) Each payment by any Loan Party under any Loan Document
shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by any applicable law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to withhold Taxes, then such
Withholding Agent may so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by such Loan Party shall
be increased as necessary so that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.19), the applicable Credit Party receives the amount it would have received had no such
withholding been made. 
 (b) The Borrowers shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by any Loan Party to a
Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) The Loan Parties shall jointly and
severally indemnify each Credit Party for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Credit Party in connection with any Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes paid or payable under this Section 2.16(d)) and any
reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Loan Parties shall not be required to indemnify any Credit Party for any Indemnified Taxes the demand for which is made to the applicable Loan
Party more than nine months after the earlier of (i) the date on which the relevant Governmental Authority makes written demand upon such Credit Party for payment of such Indemnified Taxes, and (ii) the date on which such Credit Party has
made payment of such Indemnified Taxes (except that if the Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted giving rise to such claims are retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof). The indemnity under this Section 2.16(d) shall be paid within 10 days after the Credit Party delivers to the Borrowers’ Agent a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by such Credit
Party and describing the basis for the indemnification claim. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Such Credit Party shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent.


  
 44 









 (e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in
the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that the Loan Parties have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) attributable to such
Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.16(e) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by
the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. 
 (f)
(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent, at the time or
times reasonably requested by the Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be
made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the
Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting
requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.16(f)(ii)(A) through
(E) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense (or, in the case of a change in any Requirements of Law,
any incremental material unreimbursed cost or expense) or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any
form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.16(f). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.16(f) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with
respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or
inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so. 
 (ii) Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, if any Borrower is a U.S. Person, any Lender (or, if the Lender is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. tax purposes, its sole owner) with respect to such Borrower shall, if it is legally eligible to
do so, deliver to the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto,
duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (A) IRS Form W-9
certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax; 

  
 45 









 (B) (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document,
IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS
Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

(C) IRS Form W-8ECI; 
 (D) both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN and (2) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not
(a) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of such Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (c) a “controlled
foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected; 

(E) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A),
(B), (C), (D) and (F) of this Section 2.16(f)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender;
provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of
such partners; or 
 (F) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction
of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld. 

(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 Withholding Agent, at the
time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding 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 Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to
determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.16(f)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

  
 46 









 (g) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has
received a refund or credit of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.16 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.16), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount
equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of such indemnified party and
without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid to such
indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
This Section 2.16(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

 (h) Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the
replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under the Loan Documents. 
 (i) For purposes of Sections 2.16(e) and (f), the term “Lender” includes the Issuing Lender and the Swing line Lender. For purposes of Section 2.16, the term
“applicable law” includes FATCA. 
 2.17 Indemnity. The Borrowers agree to indemnify each Lender for, and to
hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by any Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after such Borrower has
given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by any Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after such Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of
(i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such
Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding,
however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable
period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.17 submitted to the Borrowers’ Agent by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

  
 47 









 2.18 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any
event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.15 or 2.16(a) or (d) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrowers’ Agent, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of
such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender,
cause such Lender and its lending offices to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section 2.18 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or
the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.16(a) or (d). 
 2.19 Replacement of
Lenders. The Borrowers’ Agent shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) is entitled to additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.16(a) or (d), (b) becomes a Defaulting Lender, or
(c) does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby
(so long as the consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders has been obtained) (any such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”), with a replacement financial institution; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict
with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.18 so as
to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.16(a) or (d), (iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such
replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (v) the Borrowers shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.17 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day
of the Interest Period relating thereto, (vi) the replacement financial institution shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vii) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the
provisions of Section 10.6 (provided that the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (viii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrowers shall
pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.16(a) or (d), as the case may be, (ix) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; (x) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender
becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent; and (xi) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that any Borrower, the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. 
 2.20 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 2.5(a); 

  
 48 









 (b) the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Extensions of Credit of such Defaulting Lender
shall not be included in determining whether the Majority Revolving Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.1); provided,
that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby; 

(c) any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting
Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.7 shall 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 Issuing Lender or Swing line Lender hereunder; third, to cash collateralize any Issuing Lender’s L/C Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.20(d); fourth,
as the 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, as determined by the
Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations
with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize any Issuing Lender’s L/C Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement in accordance with
Section 2.20(d); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or Swing line Lenders as a result of any final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any
Lender, the Issuing Lenders or Swing line Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the
payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the 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 if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or drafts
paid under Letters of Credit 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 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and drafts paid under Letters of Credit owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any
Loans of, or drafts paid under Letters of Credit 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
Revolving Commitments under the Revolving Facility without giving effect to Section 2.20(d). 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 2.20(c) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

  
 49 









 (d) if any Swing line Exposure or L/C Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) all or any part of the Swing line Exposure and L/C Exposure of such Defaulting
Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Extensions of Credit plus such Defaulting
Lender’s Swing line Exposure and L/C Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments; 
 (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent
(x) first, prepay such Swing line Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lender only the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure (after giving effect to
any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8 for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding; 

(iii) if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure pursuant to
clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.3(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting
Lender’s L/C Exposure is cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if the L/C Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is
reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.5(a) and Section 3.3(a) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving
Percentages; and 
 (v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is neither
reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all fees payable under
Section 3.3(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Lender until and to the extent that such L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and 

(e) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing line Loan and the
Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding L/C Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments
of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.20(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swing line Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit
shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.20(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 

  
 50 









 If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Lender Parent of any Lender shall occur
following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swing line Lender or the Issuing Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in
which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swing line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing line Loan and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swing line Lender or the
Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swing line Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender
hereunder. 
 In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers’ Agent, the Swing line Lender and the Issuing
Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing line Exposure and L/C Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such
Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing line Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold
such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage. 
 2.21 Incremental Facility. 

(a) The Borrowers’ Agent and any one or more Lenders (including New Lenders) may from time to time agree that such Lenders shall
make, obtain or increase the amount of their Revolving Commitments, as applicable, by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent an Increased Facility Activation Notice specifying (i) the amount of such increase, and (ii) the
applicable Increased Facility Closing Date; provided, that (a) at the time of each such request and upon the effectiveness of each increase in Revolving Commitments no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or shall
result therefrom; (b) on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to the incurrence of any increased Revolving Commitments, (after giving effect to (x) the borrowing of any Revolving Loans on such day under such increased Revolving
Commitments, (y) other permitted pro forma adjustment events and (z) any permanent repayment of Indebtedness after the beginning of the relevant determination period but prior to or simultaneous with borrowing), the MLP is in compliance
with the financial covenants in Section 7.1; and (c) on and as of the time of each such request and upon the effectiveness of each increase in Revolving Commitments each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party
in or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent (i) any such representations and warranties relate, by their terms, to a specific date, in which case such representations and
warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such specific date and (ii) any such representations and warranties are qualified by materiality, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and
correct in all respects). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate amount of incremental Revolving Commitments obtained after the Closing Date pursuant to this paragraph shall not exceed $50,000,000 and (ii) without the consent of
the Administrative Agent, each increase effected pursuant to this paragraph shall be in a minimum amount of at least $10,000,000. No Lender shall have any obligation to participate in any increase described in this paragraph unless it agrees to do
so in its sole discretion. 

  
 51 









 (b) Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which, with the consent of
the Borrowers’ Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Swing line Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), elects to become a “Lender” under this Agreement in connection with any transaction
described in Section 2.21(a) shall execute a New Lender Supplement (each, a “New Lender Supplement”), substantially in the form of Exhibit H, whereupon such bank, financial institution or other entity (a
“New Lender”) shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. 

(c) Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, on each Increased Facility Closing Date, the Borrowers shall borrow Revolving
Loans under the relevant increased Revolving Commitments from each Lender participating in the relevant increase in an amount determined by reference to the amount of each Type of Loan (and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, of each Eurodollar
Tranche) which would then have been outstanding from such Lender if (i) each such Type or Eurodollar Tranche had been borrowed or effected on such Increased Facility Closing Date and (ii) the aggregate amount of each such Type or
Eurodollar Tranche requested to be so borrowed or effected had been proportionately increased. The Eurodollar Base Rate applicable to any Eurodollar Loan borrowed pursuant to the preceding sentence shall equal the Eurodollar Base Rate then
applicable to the Eurodollar Loans of the other Lenders in the same Eurodollar Tranche (or, until the expiration of the then-current Interest Period, such other rate as shall be agreed upon between the Borrowers’ Agent and the relevant Lender).

 SECTION 3 
 LETTERS OF CREDIT 
 3.1 L/C Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrowers on
any Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided that the Issuing Lender shall not issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance,
(i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment or (ii) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars and (ii) expire no
later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for
the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above). 
 (b) The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits
imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law. 
 3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. The Borrowers may from
time to time request that the Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of the Issuing Lender and signed by a
Responsible Officer and including agreed-upon draft language for such Letter of Credit reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender, and such other 

  
 52 









 
certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may request. Upon receipt of any Application, the Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates,
documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to
issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit
to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by the Issuing Lender and the applicable Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the applicable Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof. The
Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof). 

3.3 Fees and Other Charges. (a) The Borrowers will pay a fee on all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal
to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans, shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay to the
Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee of 0.15% per annum on the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. 

(b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrowers shall pay or reimburse the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and
expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. 
 3.4 L/C Participations. (a) The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C
Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C
Participant’s Revolving Percentage in the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant agrees with the
Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (or in the event that any reimbursement received by the Issuing
Lender shall be required to be returned by it at any time), such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender upon demand at the Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving
Percentage of the amount that is not so reimbursed (or is so returned). Each L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such L/C Participant may have against the Issuing Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default
or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by
any Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 

  
 53 









 (b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Issuing Lender pursuant
to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to the Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C
Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to
the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required
to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Issuing Lender shall be entitled to
recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility. A certificate of the Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C
Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 3.4 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 (c) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with
Section 34(a), the Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from any Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest
on account thereof, the Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Lender shall be required to be
returned by the Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it. 
 3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers. If any draft is paid under any Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of (a) the draft so paid and
(b) any Other Taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment, not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrowers’ Agent receives
notice of such draft, if such notice is received on such day prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, or (ii) if clause (i) above does not apply, the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrowers’ Agent receives
such notice. Each such payment shall be made to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the date on which the relevant draft
is paid until payment in full at the rate set forth in (x) until the Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice, Section 2.11(b) and (y) thereafter, Section 2.11(c). 

3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any
and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that any Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrowers also agree with


  
 54 









 
the Issuing Lender that the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other
things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among any Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of
Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of any Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error,
omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of
competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender. The Borrowers agree that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related
drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrowers and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to any Borrower. 

3.7 Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall
promptly notify the Borrowers’ Agent of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Borrowers in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment
obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such
Letter of Credit. 
 3.8 Applications. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of
Credit (i) is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3 or (ii) purports to add defaults or events of default or provide for the grant of security not contemplated by this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall
govern. 
 SECTION 4 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 To induce the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and to issue or participate in the Letters of Credit, except to the extent any such representations and warranties relate, by their terms, to a specific date, as of the date hereof (and as
required under Section 5.2) the Borrowers hereby represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that: 
 4.1 Financial Condition. (a) The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the MLP and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at September 30, 2012 (including the notes thereto)
(the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, has been prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date) to (i) the consummation of the Transactions,
(ii) the Loans to be made and the Senior Notes to be issued on the Closing Date and the use of proceeds thereof and (iii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared
based on the best information available to the MLP as of the date of delivery thereof, and presents fairly in all material respects on a pro forma basis the estimated financial position of the MLP and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of
September 30, 2012, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes). 

  
 55 









 (b) The audited consolidated balance sheets of the MLP as of December 31,
2009, December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the Fiscal Years ended on such dates, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from Ernst &
Young LLP, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the MLP and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective
Fiscal Years then ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the MLP and its Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2012, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the nine-month period ended on such date,
present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the MLP and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the nine-month period then
ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes). All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the
periods involved (except as disclosed therein). 
 4.2 No Change. Since December 31, 2011, there has been no
development or event that has had or is reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.3 Existence; Compliance
with Law. Each Group Member (a) is duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation, except to the extent, with respect to a Subsidiary, where any
failure to maintain existence or good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to
conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, except to the extent that the lack of any such power or authority would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or
other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except to the extent that the failure to so qualify would not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) is in compliance with all applicable Requirements of Law (excluding Environmental Laws and ERISA, but including the Patriot Act) except to the extent that the failure to comply
therewith would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.4 Power; Authorization;
Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the corporate or organizational power and authority to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of each Borrower, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder.
Each Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate or organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of each Borrower, to authorize the extensions of credit on
the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by, or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection


  
 56 









 
with the extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to which a Loan Party is a party,
except (i) filings necessary to perfect the Liens on the Collateral granted by the Loan Parties in favor of the Administrative Agent, (ii) the authorizations, approvals, actions, notices and filings which have been duly obtained, taken,
given or made and are in full force and effect, (iii) those filings and actions agreed by the parties to be taken after the Closing Date pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents and (iv) any consent,
authorization, filing or notice, where the failure to obtain any such consent or authorization or to make any such filing or give any such notice would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. This Agreement has been, and each
Loan Document will be, duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party
thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights or remedies
generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 
 4.5 No
Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which a Loan Party is a party, the issuance of Letters of Credit, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not
(a) violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of any Group Member, except where any such violation would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (b) result in, or require, the creation or
imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents), except where any such creation or imposition of
any such Lien would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.6 Litigation. No litigation,
investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers’ Agent, threatened by or against any Group Member or against any of their respective properties or revenues which
is reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.7 No Default. No Group Member is in default under or with
respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

4.8 Ownership of Property. Each Group Member has good record title in fee simple or fee simple with respect to surface rights only
to all of the Mortgaged Property, valid lease-hold interests in, easements or other limited property interests in all of its other real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other property except, in each case, where
the failure to have such interests does not have a material adverse effect on the current operations of the Business of the owner of such other real property or other property), in each case except for all Liens permitted by Section 7.3.


  
 57 









 4.9 Intellectual Property. Each Group Member owns, or is licensed to use, all
Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted, except for any failures to own or license such Intellectual Property which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No material claim
has been asserted against any Group Member and is pending by any Person challenging the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does the Borrowers’ Agent know of any valid
basis for any such claim, except, in each case, for claims that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Borrowers’ Agent, the use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not
infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such infringements that, in the aggregate, are not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.10 Taxes. Each Group Member has filed or caused to be filed all Federal, state and other material Tax returns, which, to the knowledge of the Borrowers’ Agent, are required to be filed by
such Group Member and has paid or made provision for the payment of all Taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property in respect thereof received by such Group Member, and all other
Taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than, in each case, (a) any Taxes the amount or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and
with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the relevant Group Member and (b) other Taxes where any such failure to file or any such failure to pay would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect); no Tax Lien has been filed in respect of any material amount of unpaid Taxes in respect of which, to the knowledge of the Borrowers’ Agent, any claim is being asserted, except where such claim is not reasonably
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect with respect to any such Tax. 
 4.11 Federal Regulations. No part of the
proceeds of any Loans, and no other extensions of credit hereunder, will be used (a) for “buying” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as
now and from time to time hereafter in effect for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board or (b) for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board. If requested by any Lender or the
Administrative Agent, the Borrowers’ Agent will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with said Regulation U and any applicable forms required from time to time thereunder.

 4.12 Labor Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:
(a) there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against any Group Member pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers’ Agent, threatened; (b) hours worked by and payment made to employees of each Group Member have not been in
violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters; and (c) all payments due from any Group Member in respect of employee health and welfare insurance have been paid or accrued as a

Group Member or any ERISA Affiliate has an obligation to contribute have been accrued in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification No. 715: Compensation Retirement Benefits; and (d) the present value of all accumulated benefit
obligations under each Pension Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Accounting Standards Codification No. 715: Compensation Retirement Benefits) did not, as of the date of the most recent audited financial statement reflecting
such amounts, exceed the Fair Market Value of the assets of such Pension Plan allocable to such accrued benefits. 
 4.14
Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No
Loan Party is subject to regulation under any Federal or state statue or regulation (other than Regulation X of the Board) that limits its ability to incur Indebtedness under the Loan Documents. 

4.15 Subsidiaries. Schedule 4.15 lists the correct legal name and jurisdiction of incorporation of all of the Subsidiaries
of the MLP as of the Closing Date. 
 4.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans will be used to finance capital
expenditures, acquisitions, working capital needs, the making of distributions and for other general corporate purposes of the MLP and its Subsidiaries. 
 4.17 Environmental Matters. Except to the extent that the following would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: 

(a) the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by any Group Member (the “Properties”) do not contain, and
during its period of ownership, lease or operation of the Properties, have not previously contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations that constitute a violation of, or would reasonably be expected to give rise to
liability on the part of such Group Member under, any applicable Environmental Law; 
 (b) no Group Member has received any
written notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability regarding any applicable Environmental Laws with regard to any of the Properties or the business operated by any Group Member (the

 (c) Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner that would reasonably be expected to give rise to liability on the part
of any Group Member under, any applicable Environmental Law, nor have any Materials of Environmental Concern been generated, treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any Property in violation of, or in a manner that would reasonably be
expected to give rise to liability on the part of any Group Member under, any applicable Environmental Law; 
 (d) no judicial
proceeding or governmental or administrative action is pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Borrowers’ Agent, threatened in writing, under any Environmental Law to which any Group Member is or will be named as a party
with respect to the Properties or the Business, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other administrative or judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with
respect to the Properties or the Business; 

  
 59

 4.18 Accuracy of Information, etc. No statement or information contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document, written certificate or written statement furnished by or
on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, for use in connection with the this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, taken as a whole with all other certificates, documents and written statements
furnished prior to or substantially contemporaneously therewith, contained, as of the date such statement, information, written document or written certificate was so furnished, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material
fact known to the Borrowers’ Agent and necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were or will be made not misleading; provided that, with respect to projections and
pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above the Borrowers represent only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Borrowers’ Agent
to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial

Agent, in its sole discretion, shall agree to) (i) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such amendments to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or such other documents as the Administrative Agent reasonably requests to grant to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in such property and (ii) take all actions reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a
perfected security interest (to the extent and with the priority required by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in such property), including the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be required by
the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or by law or as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) With

perfected security interest (to the extent and with the priority required by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) in the Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with respect to such new Restricted Subsidiary, including the
filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be required by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and (C) to deliver to the Administrative

or refinanced (but shall apply to any amendment or modification expanding the scope of), or any extension or renewal of, any such restriction or condition; 

  
 85 









 (d) the foregoing shall not apply to customary restrictions and conditions contained in
agreements relating to the sale of a Restricted Subsidiary or an asset pending such sale, provided that such restrictions and conditions apply only to the Restricted Subsidiary or such asset that is to be sold and such sale is permitted

board of directors of the General Partner are not Continuing Directors, (v) the removal of the General Partner by the limited partners in accordance with the Partnership Agreement or (vi) a Specified Change of Control shall occur; or

 then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of
paragraph (f) above with respect to any Borrower, automatically the Revolving Commitments shall immediately terminate and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such

 89 









 
for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative
Agent an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of
Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After all such
Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance,
if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrowers’ Agent (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided above in this Section 8, presentment, demand, protest and all
other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by each of the Borrowers. 
 SECTION 9 

THE AGENTS 

9.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including the
execution of any intercreditor agreements contemplated hereunder) and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with
such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or
any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

 9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
 9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their
respective officers, directors, employees, partners, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or
any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct)
or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate,
report, statement or other document referred to or provided for 

  
 90 









 
in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance
or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. 

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying,
upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy or email message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made
by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers’ Agent), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and
treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in
failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Revolving Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems
appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all
cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Majority Revolving Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request
and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 
 9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received
notice from a Lender or the Borrowers’ Agent referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a
notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Majority Revolving Lenders (or, if so
specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such
action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. 

9.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their
respective officers, directors, employees, partners, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan
Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges to the Agents that it has, 

  
 91 









 
independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation into
the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that
it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not
taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties
and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender
with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 
 9.7
Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent and its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, partners, agents, advisors and controlling persons (each, an “Agent Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the
Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their respective Revolving Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.7 (or, if indemnification
is sought after the date upon which the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Revolving Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of, the Revolving Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with the claims, actions or proceedings by
any Agent Indemnitee against any Loan Party under any Loan Document; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith of such Agent
Indemnitee, and provided, further, that the above provisions of this Section 9.7 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim. The agreements in
this Section 9.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

  
 92 









 9.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans
to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by
it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include
each Agent in its individual capacity. 
 9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as
Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers’ Agent. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Majority Revolving Lenders
shall appoint a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or Section 8(f) with respect to any Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to
approval by the Borrowers’ Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative
Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on
the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 10 days following a retiring Administrative
Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time,
if any, as the Majority Revolving Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 and of
Section 10.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit. 
 9.10 Joint Lead Arrangers, Co-Documentation Agents and
Syndication Agent. None of the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Co-Documentation Agents and the Syndication Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or any other Person hereunder in their capacity as
such. 
 SECTION 10

 10.1 Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement, any
other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Majority Revolving Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan
Document may, or, with the written consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or

of the Majority Revolving Lenders) and (y) that any amendment or modification of defined terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this
clause (i)) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected
thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 10.1 without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Majority Revolving Lenders,
consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary

Lenders; (v) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Revolving Lenders without the written consent of all Lenders; (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 or any other provision of any Loan
Document that affects the Administrative Agent without the written consent of the Administrative Agent; (vii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.3 or 2.4 without the written consent of the Swing line Lender;
(viii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3 or the rights or duties hereunder or under any other Loan Document of the Issuing Lenders without the written consent of the Issuing Lenders; or (ix) amend, modify or
waive any provision of Section 5.02 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally
to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to
their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of
Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Without the consent of any Agent or Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Loan
Parties and the Administrative Agent may (in their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or
instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law to give
effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, technical and conforming modifications to the Loan Documents may be made with the consent of the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary
to integrate any Revolving Commitments obtained or increased pursuant to Section 2.21 on substantially the same basis as the other Revolving Commitments.

reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and

out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including the documented fees and disbursements of counsel
(including the documented allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) to each Lender and of counsel to the Administrative Agent, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all recording
and filing fees and any and all liabilities for Other Taxes, if any, that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or

the Properties and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against any Loan Party under any Loan Document (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively,
the “Indemnified Liabilities”), in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of such Indemnitee and regardless of whether such Indemnitee is a party thereto, and whether or not any
such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding is brought by a Borrower, its equity holders, its affiliates, 

  
 96 









 
its creditors or any other Person, provided, that no Borrower shall have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified
Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee, and provided, further, that the
above provisions of this Section 10.5(d) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by
applicable law, the Borrowers agree not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims,
demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. All amounts due under

(630) 824-1001) (Telecopy No. (630) 824-1934), at the address of the Borrowers’ Agent set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrowers’ Agent in a written
notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) 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 (including any affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or
otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 10.6. 
 (b) (i)
Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”), other than a natural person, to the MLP or any of its Subsidiaries, all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of: 

(A) the Borrowers’ Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent
of the Borrowers’ Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; and provided,
further, that the Borrowers’ Agent shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless the Borrowers’ Agent shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having
received notice thereof; 
 (B) each Issuing Lender and the Swing line Lender (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed); and 

  
 97 









 (C) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed), provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitments or
Loans under the Revolving Facility, the amount of the Revolving Commitments or 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) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrowers’ Agent shall be required if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; 

(B) (1) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption,
together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and (2) the assigning Lender shall have paid in full any amounts owing by it to the Administrative Agent; and 

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire
in which the Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the MLP and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities) will
be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws. 

For the purposes of this Section 10.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that
is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (1) a Lender, (2) an affiliate of a Lender or (3) an
entity or an affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and
recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto 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 

  
 98 









 
to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or
obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 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 paragraph
(c) of this Section 10.6. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an
agent of the Borrowers’ Agent, shall maintain at one of its offices 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 Revolving Commitments of, and
principal amount (and stated interest) 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 absent manifest error,
and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding
notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower’s Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the
Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6 and any written consent to
such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be
effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c) Any
Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain
solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender 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 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 may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that
(i) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 10.1 and (ii) directly affects such Participant. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.16(f) (it being understood that the documentation required
under Section 2.16(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent 

  
 99 









 
as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6; provided that such Participant (i) agrees to
be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.15 and 2.16 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6 and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections
2.15 or 2.16, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7(b) as
though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the
Borrowers’ Agent, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the
“Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a
Participant’s interest in any Revolving Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document), except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or
other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is
recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including
any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (e) The Borrowers, upon receipt of written notice
from the relevant Lender, agree to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (d) above. 
 10.7 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement or a court order expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under the
Revolving Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall receive any payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing line Loans held by it (other
than in connection with an assignment made pursuant to Section 10.6), or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in
Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon owing to such other Lender, such
Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating or subparticipating interest in such portion of the Loans, L/C Obligations and Swing line Loans owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders
with the benefits of any such collateral, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders;
provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such
recovery, but without interest. 

  
 100









 (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender
shall have the right, without notice to any Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Obligations becoming due and payable by any Borrower (whether at the Stated Maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise), to apply to the payment of such Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in
any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender, any affiliate thereof or any of their respective branches or agencies to or for the credit or the account
of the MLP. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
application. 
 10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any
number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by email or facsimile transmission shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent. 

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement 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, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the
entire agreement of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender
relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. 
 10.11
GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 10.12 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally: 
 (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive jurisdiction (or, in the case of matters relating to the Security Documents, non-exclusive jurisdiction) of the
courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, the courts of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 
 (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or
that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 
 (c) agrees
that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Borrowers’ Agent, as the case may be at its
address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; 
 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 

(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding
referred to in this Section 10.12 any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages. 
 10.13
Acknowledgements. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that: 
 (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation,
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; 
 (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender
has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrowers, on the
other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and 
 (c) no joint venture is created
hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Borrowers and the Lenders. 
 10.14 Releases of Guarantees and Liens. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized
by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by Section 10.1) to take any action requested by the MLP having the effect of releasing any Collateral or Guarantee Obligations
(i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 10.1, (ii) under the circumstances described in paragraph
(b) below or (iii) as contemplated by Section 7.15 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. 

  
 102









 (b) At such time as the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other Obligations
under the Loan Documents (other than Obligations under or in respect of Specified Swap Agreements, Specified Cash Management Agreements or unasserted indemnification, tax gross-up, expense reimbursements or yield protection obligations, in each case
for which no claim has been made) shall have been paid in full, the Revolving Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, and the
Security Documents and all obligations (other than those contingent obligations expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any
instrument or performance of any act by any Person. 
 10.15 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and each
Lender agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it by any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement that is designated by the provider thereof as confidential;
provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any affiliate thereof, (b) subject to an agreement to comply
with the provisions of this Section 10.15, to any actual or prospective Transferee or any direct or indirect counterparty to any Swap Agreement (or any professional advisor to such counterparty), (c) to its employees, directors,
agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors or those of any of its affiliates, (d) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority, (e) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as
may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (f) if requested or required to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (g) that has been publicly disclosed, (h) to the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender, (i) in
connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (j) if agreed by the Borrowers’ Agent in its sole discretion, to any other Person and (k) to the extent that such information (x) becomes
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the MLP or any of
its Affiliates. 
 Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents may include material non-public information concerning the MLP and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non- public
information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 
 All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the MLP or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the MLP and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender acknowledges to the MLP and the Administrative
Agent that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and
state securities laws.

10.17 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title
III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and
other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. 
 10.18 Joint

 (a) Each of the Borrowers is accepting joint and several liability hereunder in

properties and assets, and, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other circumstance whatsoever.

their rights against any other Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to them against any other Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the
obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 10.18 shall remain in effect until all the obligations hereunder shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment,

services regarding this Agreement provided by the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Agents, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing line Lender and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the MLP and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the

appropriate and (iv) the Borrowers are capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; and (b) (i) the Joint Lead Arrangers,
the Agents, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing line Lender and the Lenders each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor,
