(“Holdings”), 
 SEARS ROEBUCK ACCEPTANCE CORP., a Delaware corporation, and KMART CORPORATION, a Michigan corporation (the

in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and benefits to be derived herefrom. 

W I T N E S S E T H: 

WHEREAS, Holdings, the Borrowers, the Lenders party thereto, the Co-Collateral Agents party thereto,
and the Agent, among others, are party to that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 21, 2015, as amended pursuant to that certain First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of
April 8, 2016, that certain Second Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 10, 2017, that certain Third Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 12, 2017,
that certain Fourth Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 7, 2018, and that certain Fifth Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Existing
Credit Agreement”; the Existing Credit Agreement as amended hereby, the “Amended Credit Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS,
Section 2.20(a) of the Existing Credit Agreement provides that the Borrowers may request that the Revolving Lenders establish a “first-in, last-out”
facility (the “FILO Facility”) in accordance with the terms thereof and otherwise as determined by the Borrowers in consultation with the Agent; and 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.20(a) of the Existing Credit Agreement, the Borrowers have requested a FILO Facility in an amount of
$125,000,000, and have requested that such FILO Facility be made in the form of a term loan (the “2018 FILO Loan”); and 

WHEREAS, Section 2.20(c) of the Existing Credit Agreement provides that, following any request made by the Borrowers to establish a FILO
Facility in accordance with Section 2.20, to achieve the full amount of the FILO Facility specified in any such request, subject to the approval of the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), to the extent that the existing
Revolving Lenders decline to participate in full in the FILO Facility, other consenting Eligible Assignees may become FILO Lenders thereunder and furnish FILO Commitments in the amount requested by the Borrowers under Section 2.20(a) and not
accepted by the existing Revolving Lenders; and 







 WHEREAS, Section 2.20(d) of the Existing Credit Agreement provides that the FILO Facility
shall be established pursuant to an amendment thereto to the extent necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the FILO Facility and to effect other amendments thereto and to the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the
reasonable opinion of the Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of such Section, with the consent of the FILO Lenders, the Co-Collateral Agents and the Borrower (such consents not to be
unreasonably withheld), but without the need for further consents from the Lenders; and 
 WHEREAS, Holdings, the Borrowers, the FILO
Lenders, the Co-Collateral Agents and the Agent have agreed to amend the Existing Credit Agreement in furtherance of the foregoing. 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

 

	1.	Incorporation of Terms. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Existing Credit Agreement. 


 

	2.	Representations and Warranties. 

  

	 	a.	Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants that: 

  

	 	i.	no Default or Event of Default exists under the Existing Credit Agreement or under any other Loan Document as of the date hereof; and 


 

	 	ii.	all representations and warranties contained in the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof, except to the extent that (A) such
representations or warranties are qualified by a materiality standard, in which case they are true and correct in all respects, and (B) such representations or warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations
and warranties are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date). 

  

	 	b.	Each of Holdings and each Borrower hereby represents and warrants that: 

  

	 	i.	such Loan Party (A) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and (B) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent
that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; 


  
 -2- 









	 	ii.	the execution and delivery by such Loan Party of this Amendment and the performance by such Loan Party of its obligations under this Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement, are within such Loan Party’s powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational action, and do not contravene (A) the charter or
by-laws or other organizational or governing documents of such Loan Party or (B) law or any contractual restriction binding on or affecting such Loan Party, except, for purposes of this clause (B), to the
extent such contravention would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; 

  

	 	iii.	no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by
such Loan Party of this Amendment or the Amended Credit Agreement that has not already been obtained if the failure to obtain such authorization, approval or other action could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; and


  

	 	iv.	this Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party. This Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement constitute, and will constitute upon execution of this Amendment, the legal, valid and binding
obligation of such Loan Party enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its respective terms subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors
generally and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity). 

  

	3.	Release by Borrowers. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that it has no actual knowledge of any defenses or claims against any Lender, any Issuing Lender, the Agent, the
Co-Collateral Agents, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, representatives, predecessors, successors, or assigns with respect to the Obligations, and
that if such Borrower now has, or ever did have, any defenses or claims with respect to the Obligations against any Lender, any Issuing Lender, the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents or any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, attorneys, representatives, predecessors, successors, or assigns, whether known or unknown, at law or in equity, from the beginning of the world through this date and through the time of effectiveness of this
Amendment, all of them are hereby expressly WAIVED, and each Borrower hereby RELEASES each Lender, each Issuing Lender, the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents and their respective officers,
directors, employees, attorneys, representatives, predecessors, successors, and assigns from any liability therefor.

	 	h.	To the extent requested by a Lender, the Agent shall have received all documentation and other information with respect to the Loan Parties required by regulatory authorities under applicable

warranties contained in Article V of the Amended Credit Facility and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the effective date of the FILO Facility, except to the extent (1) such representations or
warranties are qualified by a materiality standard, in which case they shall be true and correct in all respects, and (2) such representations or warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties
shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date). 

  

	 	k.	After giving effect to the funding of the 2018 FILO Loan on the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, the aggregate amount outstanding thereunder shall not exceed the lesser of (i) Incremental Availability and

	9.	Multiple Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and together which shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an
executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or in electronic (i.e. “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. 


 

	10.	Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW. 

  

	11.	FATCA. For purposes of determining withholding taxes imposed under FATCA, the Loan Parties, the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents shall treat (and the Lenders hereby
authorize the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents to treat) the Amended Credit Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i). 

  

	12.	 Effect of Amendment. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as

in the Amended Credit Agreement, all of the terms and conditions of the Existing 



  
 -7- 









	 	
Credit Agreement (including the Exhibits thereto) and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect, and each Borrower hereby reaffirms its obligations (including obligations
under any guarantee) and liens granted thereunder. This Amendment is not intended by the parties to be, and shall not be construed to be, a novation of the Existing Credit Agreement or an accord and satisfaction in regard thereto. Wherever possible,
each provision of this Amendment shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under applicable Requirements of Law. If any provision is found to be invalid under applicable Requirements of Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of
such invalidity and the remaining provisions of this Amendment shall remain in full force and effect. This Amendment and the agreement among lenders referred to in clause 6(l) above shall each constitute a Loan Document for all purposes of the
Amended Credit Agreement.

amount not to exceed the 2018 FILO Commitment of such 2018 FILO Lender. Amounts repaid in respect of the 2018 FILO Loan may not be reborrowed. Upon each 2018 FILO Lender’s making of its
portion of the 2018 FILO Loan, the 2018 FILO Commitment of such 2018 FILO Lender shall be terminated. 
 SECTION 2.02. Making the
Revolving Advances. 
 (a) Each Borrowing under Section 2.01 shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) 12:00 noon on
the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances or (y) 1:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate
Advances, by the applicable Borrower to the Agent, which shall give to each Revolving Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately
in writing, by email attachment or by telecopier, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Revolving Advances comprising such Borrowing,
(iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Revolving Advance. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the
applicable Borrower. Each Revolving Lender shall, before 2:00 P.M. on the date of such Borrowing make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Revolving
Lender’s ratable (in accordance with its Revolving Commitment Percentage) portion of such Borrowing. After the Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, the Agent will
make such funds available to the Borrower requesting such Borrowing at the Agent’s address for Revolving Advances referred to in Section 9.02. 

(b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) a Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for any
Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $5,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.09 or 2.13 and (ii) the Eurodollar Rate Advances
may not be outstanding as part of more than ten separate Borrowings, Term Loan Borrowings and 2016 Term Loan Borrowings. 
 (c) Unless the
Agent shall have received notice from a Revolving Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Revolving Lender will not make available to the Agent such Revolving Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that
such Revolving Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable
Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Revolving Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Revolving Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent
forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the
interest rate applicable at the time to Revolving Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Revolving Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Revolving Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount
so repaid shall be made available to the applicable Borrower and shall constitute such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. 

(d) The failure of any Revolving Lender to make the Revolving Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other
Revolving Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Revolving Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make the Revolving Advance to be made by
such other Revolving Lender on the date of any Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.03. The Swingline Advances. (a) Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender may, in its discretion, make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Borrowers under the Revolving Commitments from time to time during the period from the Effective Date until the Extended
Termination Date by making swing line advances (“Swingline Advances”) to the Borrowers; provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Advances outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Swingline
Commitment then in effect (notwithstanding that the Swingline Advances outstanding at any time, when aggregated with the Swingline Lender’s other outstanding Revolving Advances, may exceed the Swingline Commitment then in 







 
effect) and (ii) the amount of any Swingline Advance made at any time, when aggregated with all other then outstanding Extensions of Credit (excluding FILO Extensions of Credit), shall not
exceed the Line Cap at such time; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swingline Loan at any time when any Revolving Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, and the Swingline Lender has, or after
giving effect to such Swingline Loan, may have Fronting Exposure. During the period from the Effective Date until the Extended Termination Date, the Borrowers may use the Swingline Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance
with the terms and conditions hereof. Swingline Advances shall only be available as Base Rate Advances. 
 (b) Each Borrower shall repay to
the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Advance made to it weekly, on Wednesday of each week; provided that on each date that a Revolving Advance is borrowed by a Borrower, such Borrower shall repay all
Swingline Advances then outstanding, if any, and may use all or a portion of such Revolving Advance to fund such repayment. In all events the unpaid principal balance of all Swingline Advances shall be repaid in full on the Extended Termination
Date. 
 SECTION 2.04. Making the Swingline Advances. 

(a) Each Borrowing under Section 2.03 shall be made on notice, given not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Borrowing, by
the applicable Borrower to the Agent and Swingline Lender. Each such Notice of a Borrowing shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, by email attachment or by telecopier, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto,
specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing and (ii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing. Each Borrowing under the Swingline 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. on the date of the proposed Borrowing, the Swingline Lender shall make available to the Agent at the Agent’s Account an amount in immediately available funds equal to the amount of the Swingline Advance to be
made by the Swingline Lender. Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, the Agent shall make the proceeds of such Swingline Advance available to the Borrower requesting such Borrowing at the Agent’s address referred
to in Section 9.02. 
 (b) The Swingline 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 Swingline Lender to act on their behalf), by notice given by the Swingline Lender no later than 1:00 p.m., request each Revolving Lender to make, and each Revolving Lender hereby agrees to make,
a Revolving Advance, in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swingline Advances (the “Refunded Swingline Advances”) outstanding on the date of such notice, to repay the
Swingline Lender. Each Revolving Lender shall make the amount of such Revolving Advance available to the Agent at the Agent’s Account in same day funds, not later than 2:00 P.M. on the date of such notice. The proceeds of such Revolving
Advances shall be immediately made available by the Agent to the Swingline Lender for application by the Swingline Lender to the repayment of the Refunded Swingline Advances. Each Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Swingline Lender to charge such
Borrower’s accounts with the Agent (up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately pay the amount of such Refunded Swingline Advances to the extent amounts received from the Revolving Lenders are not sufficient to
repay in full such Refunded Swingline Advances. 
 (c) If prior to the time a Revolving Advance would have otherwise been made pursuant to
Section 2.04(b), one of the events described in Section 7.01 shall have occurred and be continuing or if for any other reason, as determined by the Swingline Lender in its sole discretion, Revolving Advances may not be made as contemplated
by Section 2.04(b), each Revolving Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Advance was to have been made pursuant to the notice referred to in Section 2.04(b), purchase for cash an undivided participating interest in the then outstanding
Swingline Advances by paying to the Swingline Lender an amount (the “Swingline Participation Amount”) equal to (i) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage multiplied by (ii) the sum of the
aggregate principal amount of Swingline Advances then outstanding that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Advances. 







 (d) Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Revolving Lender such
Revolving Lender’s Swingline Participation Amount, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of the Swingline Advances, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Revolving Lender its Swingline Participation Amount (appropriately
adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect whether such payment is owed to a 2015 Non-Extending Lender or a 2015 Extending Lender and whether the corresponding interest rate owed to such Lender is calculated in accordance with
Section 2.08(a) or 2.08(d)) to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Revolving Lender’s
pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swingline Advances then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender
is required to be returned, such Revolving Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swingline Lender. 

(e) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the Advances referred to in Section 2.04(b) and to purchase participating interests
pursuant to Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender or any Borrower may have
against the Swingline 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 Article IV,
(iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower or any other Loan Party, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Lender or
(v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
 SECTION 2.05. Fees;
Commitment Fee. (a) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee on the average daily amount of the Available Commitment of such Lender during the period for which
payment is made at a rate per annum equal to 0.500% per annum with respect to the period prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date and 0.625% per annum with respect to the period from and after the Second Amendment Effective Date, in
each case payable in arrears quarterly on the 5th day subsequent to the last day of each April, July, October and January (provided that, during the continuation of a Cash Dominion Period,
such payment shall be made on the 5th day subsequent to the last day of each month), and on the Extended Termination Date. 

(b) 2016 Term Loan Repayment Premium. In the event that, prior to the two year anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, all

the Borrowers shall pay (x) a prepayment premium equal to 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Term Loan so prepaid, refinanced or replaced, if such Prepayment Transaction occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the First
Amendment Effective Date, and (y) a prepayment premium equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Term Loan so prepaid, refinanced or replaced, if such Prepayment Transaction occurs after the first anniversary of the First
Amendment Effective Date but on or prior to the second anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date. Such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such Prepayment Transaction. 

(c) 2018 FILO Loan Repayment Premium. In the event that, prior to the two year anniversary of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, all or
any portion of the 2018 FILO Loan is voluntarily repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced (a “FILO Repayment Transaction”), the Borrowers shall pay (x) a repayment premium equal to the greater of (i) the Eight Month Make Whole
Amount and (ii) 3.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2018 FILO Loan so repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced, if such FILO Repayment Transaction occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date
(provided that, if such FILO Repayment Transaction is made during the first six months after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date from the proceeds of a debt or equity investment by any Person other than a Loan Party or an Affiliate thereof (and is
made outside of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), such amount shall be as set forth in clause (x)(ii) above), and (y) a repayment premium equal to 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2018 FILO Loan so repaid, prepaid,
refinanced or replaced, if such FILO Repayment Transaction occurs after the first anniversary of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date but on or prior to the second anniversary of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date. Subject to the proviso to clause
fifteenth of Section 6.4 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such FILO Repayment Transaction. In the event that any Loan Party is at the time of the applicable FILO
Repayment Transaction the subject of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, amounts  







 
payable pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall be limited so that total Obligations (including amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.05(c)) outstanding at any time do not exceed
100% of the sum of (i) aggregate outstanding Eligible Credit Card Accounts Receivable at such time plus (ii) aggregate Eligible Pharmacy Receivables at such time plus (iii) aggregate Net Orderly Liquidation Value at such time.

 (cd) Other Fees. Holdings and the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents and the Lead

SECTION 2.06. Optional Termination or Reduction of the Revolving Commitments. 

(a) The Borrowers shall have the right, without penalty or premium and upon at least three Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the
Agent, to permanently terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part the unused portions of the respective Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders, provided that no such termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be
permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Advances made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments as so reduced. Any partial
reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. 

(b) If, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, the L/C Commitment or the Swingline Commitment exceeds
the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, such L/C Commitment or Swingline Commitment shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. 

(c) The Agent will promptly notify the Revolving Lenders of any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments under
Section 2.06(a). Upon any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, except as provided in Section 2.06(d), the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall be reduced by such Revolving Lender’s Revolving
Commitment Percentage of such reduction amount. 
 (d) In addition to the Borrowers’ rights under Section 2.06(a), the Borrower
shall have the right, without penalty or premium and upon at least three Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Agent and without any reduction in the Revolving Commitments of the 2015 Extending Lenders, to permanently reduce or terminate,
(i) in whole or in part, on a ratable basis, the Revolving Commitments of the 2015 Non-Extending Lenders, without the consent of any Lender and (ii) in whole, but not in part, the Revolving Commitments of any one or more 2015 Non-Extending
Lenders, non-ratably, without the consent of any Lender, and in each case to repay the Obligations held by such 2015 Non-Extending Lenders to the extent such Obligations exceed the remaining Revolving Commitments of such Lenders, as long as,
immediately after giving effect to such reduction, termination and repayment, no Default or Event of Default then exists and, after giving effect to such reduction or termination, Pro Forma and Projected Capped Excess Availability is at least 25% of
the Line Cap. The Agent will promptly notify the applicable 2015 Non-Extending Lenders of any reduction or termination of their Revolving Commitments under this Section 2.06(d). 

SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Revolving Advances, Term Loan and, 2016 Term Loan and 2018 FILO Loan.

principal amount of the Advances made to it by the 2015 Extending Lenders then outstanding. In the event that the Revolving Termination Date and the Extended Termination Date are the same day, then all payments shall be received by the Agent and
applied in accordance with the then Revolving Commitment Percentages of the 2015 Non-Extending Lenders and the 2015 Extending Lenders.

account of the Term Lenders on the Term Loan Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan then outstanding. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.07(b) will apply to the Term Loan following the Third Amendment Effective
Date, subject to the rights of the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.11(i), including with respect to the application of voluntary prepayments prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date.

Borrowings and 2018 FILO Borrowings. The Borrowers may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Agent not later than 12:00 noon on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the
provisions of Sections 2.09 and 2.13, Convert all Revolving Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Revolving Advances of the other Type and/or Convert any Term Loan Borrowing or, 2016 Term Loan
Borrowing or 2018 FILO Borrowing, as applicable, of one Type into a Term Loan Borrowing or, 2016 Term Loan Borrowing or 2018 FILO Borrowing of the other Type, as applicable; provided, however, that any
Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not
less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(b) and no Conversion of any Revolving Advances, Term Loan Borrowings or, 2016 Term Loan Borrowings or 2018 FILO Borrowings shall result in more separate
Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Revolving Advances, Term Loan Borrowings
or, 2016 Term Loan Borrowings or 2018 FILO Borrowings to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Revolving Advance, Term Loan
Borrowing or, 2016 Term Loan Borrowing or 2018 FILO Borrowing, as applicable. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the applicable Borrower. 

SECTION 2.11. Optional and Mandatory Prepayments of Revolving Advances, Term Loan and, 2016 Term Loan
and 2018 FILO Loan. 
 (a) (i) Any Borrower may, without penalty or premium and upon notice given not later than 12:00 noon

same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal
amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, in the case of partial prepayments of Swingline Advances, $100,000 or a whole multiple thereof) and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate
Advance, the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c). 

(ii) Any Borrower may, subject to the terms of this Section 2.11(a)(ii) and upon notice given not later than 12:00 noon on

part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (w) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof, (x) in connection with any such prepayment of the Term Loan, the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be reduced on a Pro Rata Basis, provided that the Revolving Commitments of the 2015 Extending Lenders
shall not be required to be so reduced so long as (1) (A) no proceeds of Revolving Loans are used to make such prepayment of the Term Loan, and (B) after giving effect to such prepayment, Pro Forma and Projected Capped Excess
Availability is greater than 50% of the Line Cap, or (2) the aggregate amount of all prepayments of the Term Loan from and after July 21, 2015 that do not give rise to a reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments on a Pro Rata Basis
is less than the sum of (a) the aggregate increases in commitments which have occurred pursuant to Section 2.19(b) hereof and FILO 







 
Commitments pursuant to Section 2.20 hereof, in each case after July 21, 2015 and (b) the original principal amount of the 2016 Term Loans, (y) any prepayment of the Term Loan
using proceeds of the increases in commitments which have occurred pursuant to Section 2.19(b) or the FILO Facility must be made within thirty (30) days after the effective date of the increases in commitments which have occurred pursuant
to Section 2.19(b) or FILO Facility pursuant to Section 2.20, as applicable, and (z) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect
thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c). 
 (iii) Any Borrower may, subject to the terms of this Section 2.11(a)(iii)
and upon notice given not later than 12:00 noon on the date of such prepayment to the Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal
amount of the 2016 Term Loan in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal
amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (y) in connection with any such prepayment of the 2016 Term Loan, the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be reduced and the Term Loan shall be prepaid on a Pro
Rata Basis, and (z) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c). 

(iv) Any Borrower may, subject to the terms of this Section 2.11(a)(iv) and upon notice given not later than 12:00 noon
on the date of such prepayment to the Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the 2018 FILO Loan in whole or
ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and any additional amounts required to be paid as described herein (including pursuant to Section 2.05(c); provided, however, that
(x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (y) no such prepayment of the 2018 FILO Loan, in whole or in part, shall be permitted unless no
Default or Event of Default then exists and is continuing and, after giving effect to such prepayment or reduction, Pro Forma and Projected Capped Excess Availability is at least 50% of the Line Cap, and (z) in the event of any such prepayment
of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(c). 

(b) In addition to the Borrowers’ rights under Section 2.11(a), as long as (i) no Default or Event of Default then exists or
would arise therefrom, and (ii) after giving effect to such prepayment, Pro Forma and Projected Capped Excess Availability is at least 25% of the Line Cap, the Borrowers may, without penalty or premium and without regard to the provisions of
Section 2.16, prepay, in whole or in part as applicable (a “Designated Prepayment”), the Obligations owing to any one or more 2015 Non-Extending Lender(s) in connection with a reduction or termination of the Revolving
Commitments of such 2015 Non-Extending Lenders pursuant to Section 2.06(d), provided: (i) each Designated Prepayment shall be upon notice given not later than 12:00 noon on the date of such Designated Prepayment to the Agent stating
the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the Designated Prepayment; (ii) each Designated Prepayment, if not ratable to all 2015 Non-Extending Lenders, shall repay the entire outstanding amount of all Obligations held by the
applicable 2015 Non-Extending Lender (but solely in the capacity of a 2015 Non-Extending Lender) (including principal, interest, fees, expense reimbursements and other amounts due under the Loan Documents) at par, or at such discount to par as the
Borrowers and each applicable 2015 Non-Extending Lender may separately agree in writing, and (iii) the Revolving Commitment of each 2015 Non-Extending Lender receiving such prepayment shall be reduced or terminated by a corresponding amount.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, prepayments hereunder may be made to any 2015 Non-Extending Lender and the Commitments of 2015 Non-Extending Lenders may be reduced or terminated without a pro rata repayment to, or reduction or
termination of the Commitments of, any other Lender. 
 (c) On the date of delivery of any Borrowing Base Certificate, if the Total
Extensions of Credit (excluding FILO Extensions of Credit) exceed the Line Cap, the Borrowers shall prepay Advances in an amount equal to such excess, provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Advances then outstanding is less than
the amount of such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrowers shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount in cash in a cash








 
collateral account established with the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Agent, provided further that if, after the prepayment of any
Revolving Advances and the cash collateralization of L/C Obligations under this clause (c) the Total Extensions of Credit (excluding FILO Extensions of Credit) exceed the Line Cap, the Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loan and the 2016 Term Loan
pro rata in an amount equal to such excess. 
 (d) The Borrowers shall repay the Advances (without a requirement to reduce the Revolving
Commitments), the Term Loan and the 2016 Term Loan with respect to any Permitted Disposition or other transaction, in each case to the extent that the Application of Disposition Proceeds applies, in accordance with the Application of Disposition
Proceeds. 
 (e) The Borrowers shall prepay Advances (and to the extent required, reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments) in an amount
necessary to avoid the occurrence of a Collateral Coverage Event (as defined in the Indenture for the Existing Second Lien Notes), provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Advances then outstanding is less than the amount required
to be prepaid to avoid the occurrence of a Collateral Coverage Event (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrowers shall, to the extent of the balance required, replace outstanding Letters of Credit on terms and conditions
satisfactory to the Agent, provided further that if, after the prepayment of any Revolving Advances and the replacement of outstanding Letters of Credit under this clause (e) a Collateral Coverage Event would exist, the Borrowers shall
prepay the Term Loan and the 2016 Term Loan pro rata in an amount necessary to avoid the occurrence of such Collateral Coverage Event., provided further that if, after the prepayment of any Revolving Advances, the Term Loan and
the 2016 Term Loan, and the replacement of outstanding Letters of Credit under this clause (e) a Collateral Coverage Event would exist, the Borrowers shall prepay the 2018 FILO Loan pro rata in an amount necessary to avoid the occurrence of
such Collateral Coverage Event. 
 (f) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Event, the Borrowers shall
prepay the Advances in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.01(m) hereof, and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrowers shall cash collateralize the L/C Obligations in accordance with the
provisions of Section 7.01 hereof, provided further that if, after the prepayment of any Revolving Advances under this clause (f) (and any cash collateralization of L/C Obligations as set forth above) an Event of Default exists, the
Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loan and the 2016 Term Loan pro rata to the extent required by Section 6.4 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. 

(g) The Borrowers shall prepay (x) the Term Loan in an amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for each fiscal year of Holdings beginning
with the fiscal year ending on or about January 31, 2015, and (y) the Term Loan and the 2016 Term Loan on a ratable basis in an aggregate amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for each fiscal year of Holdings beginning with the fiscal
year ending on or about January 31, 2017. Each prepayment under this clause (g) shall be made within 90 days following the end of each applicable fiscal year of Holdings. 

(h) The Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, in connection with each prepayment required under Section 2.11(g), a
certificate signed by a Authorized Officer of the Borrowers setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment. 

(i) Any prepayment of Revolving Advances, the Term Loan or, the 2016 Term Loan or the 2018 FILO Loan pursuant
to clauses (b), (c), (e), (f) or (g) of this Section 2.11 shall be applied, first, to any Base Rate Advances then outstanding and the balance of such prepayment, if any, to the Eurodollar Rate Advances then outstanding. In connection
with the foregoing, the Agent may monthly (or more frequently in the Agent’s Permitted Discretion) make the necessary exchange rate calculations in accordance with Section 3.10 to determine whether any such excess described in this Section
exists on such date. Prepayments made pursuant to clauses (b), (c), or (e) of this Section 2.11 shall not reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments hereunder except to the extent provided in clause (b) above. Any prepayment of the
Term Loan required pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be applied to the scheduled installments of the Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity and shall not reduce or postpone the time for any scheduled payments of the Term Loan hereunder
(including pursuant to clause (g) above); provided that any voluntary prepayment of the Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.11(a), whether before or after the Third Amendment Effective Date, shall be applied to the scheduled installments of
the Term Loan as the Borrowers shall direct. 







 SECTION 2.12. Increased Costs. (a) If, due to either (i) after the Effective
Date the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) made
or issued after the Effective Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit (excluding for purposes of this
Section 2.12 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.15 shall govern) and (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or
by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of
such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost; provided that a Lender claiming additional amounts under this Section 2.12(a) agrees to
use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office and/or take other commercially reasonable action if the making of such a designation or the taking
of such actions would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate as to the amount
of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrowers and the Agent by such Lender, shall be entitled to a presumption of correctness. If any Borrower so notifies the Agent after any Lender notifies the Borrowers of any increased cost pursuant to the
foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12(a), such Borrower may, upon payment of such increased cost to such Lender, replace such Lender with a Person that is an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the terms of Section 9.07 (and the
Lender being so replaced shall take all action as may be necessary to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Eligible Assignee). 

(b) If any Lender determines that compliance with any change after the Effective Date in law or regulation or any guideline or request after
the Effective Date from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any entity
controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy
of such demand to the Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such entity in the light of such
circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the
Borrowers and the Agent by such Lender shall be entitled to a presumption of correctness. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines,
requirements and directives thereunder issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision
(or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law covered by this Section 2.12 regardless of the date enacted,
adopted, issued or implemented. 
 (c) The Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased
costs or capital, liquidity or reserve requirement or pursuant to Section 2.15 for any Taxes incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers of the change or issuance giving rise to such increased costs
or capital, liquidity or reserve requirement or Tax and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that if the change or issuance giving rise to such increased costs or capital, liquidity or reserve requirement
or Tax is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

SECTION 2.13. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent that the
introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or 







 
its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, (a) each Eurodollar Rate
Advance will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance or an Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in Sections 2.08(a)(i), 2.08(b)(i), 2.08(c)(i) or, 2.08(d)(i) or 2.08(e)(i),
as the case may be, and (b) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to Convert Advances, Term Loan Borrowings, 2016 Term Loan Borrowings or FILO Borrowings, if applicable, into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be
suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 

SECTION 2.14. Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder and under the other Loan Documents,
without any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 1:00 P.M. on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Agent at the Agent’s Account in same day funds. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to
the payment of principal or interest or commitment fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12, 2.15 or 9.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the
payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and
recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly
between themselves. 
 (b) Each Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the extent payment owed by it to such Lender is not made
when due hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, to charge from time to time against any or all of such Borrower’s accounts with such Lender any amount so due, notwithstanding that an Overadvance may result thereby. Any such Lender so
charging such accounts shall deliver the proceeds therefrom to the Agent for distribution to the Credit Parties in the manner set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. 

(c) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may
be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of letter of credit fees, commitment fees and other fees shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual
number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or commitment fees are payable. Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day
other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; provided,
however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. 

(e) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due by it to the Lenders hereunder
that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each
Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed
to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. 

SECTION 2.15. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrowers to or for the account of any Lender, the Agent or any Co-Collateral
Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any other documents to be delivered hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.14 or the applicable provisions of such other documents, free and clear of and without deduction for
any and all present or future Taxes (excluding any 







 
Excluded Taxes). If the Borrowers shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any other documents to be
delivered hereunder to any Lender, the Agent or any Co-Collateral Agent, (i) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making
all required deductions for Indemnified Taxes (including deductions for Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) such Lender, the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents (as the case may be) receive an amount
equal to the sum each would have received had no such deductions of Indemnified Taxes been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions as are determined by such Borrowers to be required based upon the information and documentation it
has received pursuant to Sections 2.15(e) and (f) and (iii) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or
similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other
documents to be delivered hereunder, but excluding (i) any such taxes that are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (other than an assignment made pursuant to Section 9.16), and (ii) all other United States
federal taxes other than withholding taxes (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). Other Taxes shall not include any Taxes imposed on, or measured by reference to, gross income, net income or gain. 

(c) Without duplication of any additional amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.15(a), the Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender, the Agent
and each Co-Collateral Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.15)
imposed on or paid by such Lender, the Agent or any Co-Collateral Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made
within 30 days from the date such Lender, the Agent or any Co-Collateral Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. 
 (d)
Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Indemnified Taxes, the Borrowers shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment to the extent such a
receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. 
 (e) Any Lender that
is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent, such
properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the
Borrowers or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements. 
 (i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 

(a) Each Lender that is a United States person, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the
case of each Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers or the Agent), shall
provide each of the Agent and the Borrowers with two executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents; and 
 (b) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, and each other Lender
that is not a domestic corporation within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code: 







 (1) represents that all payments to be made to it under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document are exempt from United States withholding tax (including backup withholding tax) under an applicable statute or tax treaty; 

(2) on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender and on the date of the
Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so),
shall provide each of the Agent and the Borrowers with two executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying
that such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and 

(3) on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender and on the date of the
Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so),
shall provide each of the Agent and the Borrowers with executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with
supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrowers or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

If the form provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest
withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Indemnified Taxes unless and until such Lender provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at
such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Indemnified Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender assignee becomes a party
to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Indemnified Taxes shall include (in
addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Indemnified Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender assignee on such date. If any form or document
referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or
W-8ECI, that the Lender reasonably considers to be confidential, the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. For purposes of this subsection (e),
the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. 

(f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrowers with the appropriate form, certificate or other document
described in Section 2.15(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required
to be provided, or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.15(a) or (c) with respect to Indemnified Taxes
imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Indemnified Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the
Borrowers shall take such steps as the Lender shall 







 
reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such Indemnified Taxes. Further, 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 Borrowers and the Agent at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code)
and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such
Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after July 21, 2015. 

(g) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.15 expires or becomes
obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(h) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.15 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with
its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter
accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 (i) If any Lender
determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has actually and finally realized, by reason of a refund, deduction or credit of any Indemnified Taxes paid or reimbursed by the Borrowers pursuant to subsection (a) or
(c) above in respect of payments under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, a current monetary benefit that it would otherwise not have obtained, and that would result in the total payments under this Section 2.15 exceeding the
amount needed to make such Lender whole, such Lender shall pay to the Borrowers, with reasonable promptness following the date on which it actually realizes such benefit, an amount equal to the amount of such excess, net of all out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by such Lender reasonably allocable in securing such refund, deduction or credit, provided that the Borrowers, upon the request of such Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers to such Lender in the event
such Lender is required to repay such refund to such jurisdiction. Nothing in this subsection (i) shall be construed to require any Lender to make available to the Borrowers or any other Person its tax returns or any confidential tax
information. 
 (j) If the Agent, any Co-Collateral Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, shall become aware that it is entitled to claim
a refund from a Governmental Authority in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15, including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower, or with respect to
which Borrower or a Group Member that is a signatory hereto has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall notify Borrower of the availability of such refund claim and, if the Agent, any Co-Collateral Agent or any Lender,
as the case may be, determines in good faith that making a claim for refund will not have any adverse consequence to its taxes or business operations, shall, after receipt of a request by Borrower, make a claim to such Governmental Authority for
such refund at Borrower’s expense. 
 SECTION 2.16. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment from any
Group Member (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances, the Term Loan, the 2016 Term Loan, the 2018 FILO Loan or other amounts owing to it (other than pursuant to
Section 2.05(b), 2.05(c), 2.06, 2.07, 2.11, 2.12, 2.15, 2.18, 2.19 or 9.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances, the Term Loan, the 2016
Term Loan, the 2018 FILO Loan or other amounts owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such
excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount
equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or
payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. 







 
The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of
payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. 

SECTION 2.17. Use of Proceeds of Advances, Term Loan and 2016 Term Loan. (a) The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and
each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) for general corporate purposes of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, for Acquisitions, Capital Expenditures, cash dividends, payment of any of the Obligations, and
stock and bond repurchases, all to the extent not prohibited under the Loan Documents. 
 (b) The proceeds of the Term Loan shall be
available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) to repay outstanding Revolving Advances on the date such Term Loan was made. Such repayment shall not result in a reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments. 

(c) The proceeds of the 2016 Term Loan shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) to repay outstanding
Revolving Advances on the First Amendment Effective Date. Such repayment shall not result in a reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments. 

(d) The proceeds of the 2017 Additional Extended Term Loan shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) to
repay on the Third Amendment Effective Date outstanding Term Loans of the 2017 Non-Extending Term Lenders. 
 (e) The proceeds of the
2018 FILO Loan shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) to repay outstanding Advances (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 9.04(c)) on the Sixth Amendment Effective Date. Such
repayment shall not result in a reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments. 
 SECTION 2.18. Extension of Loans. 

(a) Extension of Revolving Commitments, Term Loans or 2016 Term Loans. The Borrowers may at any time and from time to time request that
all or a portion of the Revolving Commitments (including the L/C Commitment and the Swingline Commitment), the Term Loans and/or the 2016 Term Loans be amended to extend the termination date with respect to all or a portion of the Revolving
Commitments (any such Revolving Commitments which have been so amended, “Extended Revolving Commitments”, any such Term Loans which have been so amended, “Extended Term Loans”, and any such 2016 Term Loans which
have been so amended, “Extended 2016 Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.18. In order to establish any Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loans or Extended 2016 Term Loans, the
Borrowers shall provide a notice to the Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Revolving Lenders, Term Lenders and/or 2016 Term Lenders, as applicable) (each, a “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed
terms (which shall be determined in consultation with the Agent) of the Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loans or Extended 2016 Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Revolving Lender, Term
Lender and/or 2016 Term Lender, as applicable (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Revolving Lender, each Term Lender and each 2016 Term Lender hereunder, as applicable, and (y) be
identical to the Revolving Commitments, Term Loans and/or 2016 Term Loans hereunder, except that: (i) the maturity date of the Extended Revolving Commitments shall be later than the Revolving Termination Date and equal to or later than the
Extended Termination Date, or with respect to the Term Loans, the maturity date of the Extended Term Loans shall be later than the Term Loan Termination Date and equal to or later than the Extended Termination Date, or with respect to the 2016 Term
Loans, the maturity date of the Extended 2016 Term Loans shall be later than the 2016 Term Loan Termination Date, (ii) payments of interest and fees may be at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loans and Extended
2016 Term Loans (and related outstandings), provided that any increase in the interest rate on the Extended Term Loans or Extended 2016 Term Loans in excess of 0.25% per annum shall result in a comparable increase in the interest rate
applicable to the Revolving Extensions of Credit in an amount equal to such excess, (iii) the terms of the Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loans and/or Extended 2016 Term Loans may provide, subject to the








 
consent of the Required Lenders (excluding from the calculation thereof, any Revolving Lenders, Term Lenders or 2016 Term Lenders who decline to extend their Revolving Commitments, their Term
Loans or their 2016 Term Loans, as applicable) for other or different covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Revolving Termination Date, the Term Loan Termination Date or the 2016 Term Loan Termination Date, as applicable, or,
if earlier, the termination in full of the Revolving Commitments that are not Extended Revolving Commitments or the repayment in full of Term Loans that are not Extended Term Loans or the repayment in full of 2016 Term Loans that are not Extended
2016 Term Loans, as applicable, and (iv)(A) all borrowings under the Revolving Commitments (including Extended Revolving Commitments) and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (1) payments of interest and fees at
different rates on commitments (and related outstandings) in accordance with the rights of the applicable Class and (2) repayments required upon the termination date of the commitments of any Class); (B) all repayments of the Term Loans
(including Extended Term Loans) shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (1) payments of interest and fees at different rates on commitments (and related outstandings) in accordance with the rights of the applicable Class and
(2) repayments required upon the maturity date of the Term Loans of any Class); and (C) all repayments of the 2016 Term Loans (including Extended 2016 Term Loans) shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (1) payments of interest
and fees at different rates on commitments (and related outstandings) in accordance with the rights of the applicable Class and (2) repayments required upon the maturity date of the 2016 Term Loans of any Class); provided, further, that
(A) the conditions precedent to a Borrowing set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied at the time when any Revolving Advances are made in respect of any Extended Revolving Commitment, (B) in connection with an Extension Request
with respect to the Revolving Commitments, either (i) the Revolving Lenders collectively have consented to the applicable Extension Request with respect to a majority of the Revolving Commitments (it being understood that no consent of any Term
Lender or 2016 Term Lender shall be required) or (ii) simultaneously with the effectiveness of the maturity extension in respect of the Extended Revolving Commitments the Revolving Commitments that are not Extended Revolving Commitments shall
be terminated in full (including by deemed cancellation of the entirety of the Revolving Commitments and the implementation of new commitments in respect of the Extended Revolving Commitments), (C) in connection with an Extension Request with
respect to the Term Loans either (i) the Term Lenders collectively have consented to the applicable Extension Request with respect to a majority in amount of the Term Loans (it being understood that no consent of any Revolving Lender or 2016
Term Lender shall be required) or (ii) simultaneously with the effectiveness of the maturity extension in respect of the Extended Term Loans, the Term Loans that are not Extended Term Loans shall be paid in full (the foregoing not being deemed
to modify or waive the provisions of Section 2.11 hereof regarding the conditions precedent to repayment of the Term Loans), (D) in connection with an Extension Request with respect to the 2016 Term Loans either (i) the 2016 Term
Lenders collectively have consented to the applicable Extension Request with respect to a majority in amount of the 2016 Term Loans (it being understood that no consent of any Revolving Lender or Term Lender shall be required) or
(ii) simultaneously with the effectiveness of the maturity extension in respect of the Extended 2016 Term Loans, the 2016 Term Loans that are not Extended 2016 Term Loans shall be paid in full (the foregoing not being deemed to modify or waive
the provisions of Section 2.11 hereof regarding the conditions precedent to repayment of the 2016 Term Loan), and (E) all documentation in respect of such extension shall be consistent with the foregoing. 

(b) Extension Request. The Borrowers shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least ten (10) Business Days (or such
shorter period as may be agreed by the Agent) prior to the date on which the applicable Lenders are requested to respond. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to provide any Extended Revolving Commitment, Extended Term Loan or Extended 2016
Term Loan pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender (each, an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Commitments, Term Loans or 2016 Term Loans subject to such Extension Request amended into
Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loan or Extended 2016 Term Loans, as applicable, shall notify the Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its
Revolving Commitments, Term Loans or 2016 Term Loans, as applicable, which it has elected to request be amended into Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loan or Extended 2016 Term Loans (subject to any minimum denomination requirements
imposed by the Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Commitments, Term Loans or 2016 Term Loans, as applicable, in respect of which applicable Revolving Lenders, Term Lenders or 2016 Term Lenders shall have accepted
the relevant Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loan or Extended 2016 Term Loans requested to be extended pursuant to the Extension Request, Revolving Commitments, Term Loans or 2016 Term Loans, as
applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be amended to reflect allocations of the Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loan or 







 
Extended 2016 Term Loans, which Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loans and/or Extended 2016 Term Loans shall be allocated as agreed by Agent and the Borrowers. 

(c) New Lenders. Following any Extension Request made by the Borrowers in accordance with this Section 2.18, if the Revolving
Lenders, Term Lenders and/or 2016 Term Lenders, as applicable, shall have declined to agree during the period specified in Section 2.18(b) above to provide Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loan or Extended 2016 Term Loans in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the amount requested by the Borrowers in such Extension Request, the Borrowers may request that banks, financial institutions or other institutional lenders or investors (including any Extending Lender) provide an
Extended Revolving Commitment, an Extended Term Loan or an Extended 2016 Term Loan or a commitment to provide an additional term loan tranche hereunder (the “Additional Extending Lenders”); provided that such Extended
Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loan or Extended 2016 Term Loans of such Additional Extending Lenders (i) shall be in an aggregate principal amount for all such Additional Extending Lenders not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of
Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loan or Extended 2016 Term Loans so declined to be provided by the existing Lenders and (ii) shall be on identical terms to the terms applicable to the terms specified in the applicable Extension
Request (and any Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loan or Extended 2016 Term Loans, as applicable, provided by existing Lenders in respect thereof) and, if a new tranche of term loans is to be incurred including other terms as are
customary for a term loan provided that the maturity term for any term loan commitment hereunder shall not be earlier than the 2016 Term Loan Termination Date; provided further that, as a condition to the effectiveness of any Extended
Revolving Commitment, Extended Term Loan or Extended 2016 Term Loan or term loan commitment of any Additional Extending Lender, the Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to each Additional Extending
Lender. Upon (1) the earlier of the Revolving Termination Date (including a deemed Revolving Termination Date in accordance with clause (B) of the proviso to Section 2.18(a) above, (or, if applicable, any Extended Termination Date
occurring after the Revolving Termination Date) or such earlier date as any declining Revolving Lenders may agree), (a) the Revolving Commitments of the applicable declining Revolving Lenders will be terminated pro rata with the Commitments of
other applicable declining Revolving Lenders by an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Revolving Commitments and the term loan commitments of such Additional Extending Lenders and (b) the Revolving
Commitment or term loan commitment of each such Additional Extending Lender will become effective, (2) the earlier of the Term Loan Termination Date (including a deemed Term Loan Termination Date in accordance with clause (C) of the
proviso to Section 2.18(a) above) (or, if applicable, any Extended Termination Date occurring after the Term Loan Termination Date) or such earlier date as any declining Term Lenders may agree), (a) the Term Loans of the applicable
declining Term Lenders will be repaid in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Extended Term Loans provided by Additional Extending Lenders and (b) the term loan commitment of each such Additional Extending Lender will become effective,
and (3) the earlier of the 2016 Term Loan Termination Date (including a deemed 2016 Term Loan Termination Date in accordance with clause (D) of the proviso to Section 2.18(a) above) (or, if applicable, any Extended Termination Date
occurring after the 2016 Term Loan Termination Date) or such earlier date as any declining 2016 Term Lenders may agree), (a) the 2016 Term Loans of the applicable declining 2016 Term Lenders will be repaid in an aggregate principal amount equal
to the Extended 2016 Term Loans provided by Additional Extending Lenders and (b) the term loan commitment of each such Additional Extending Lender will become effective. The Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loans and/or Extended
2016 Term Loans of Additional Extending Lenders will be incorporated as Revolving Commitments, Term Loans or 2016 Term Loans hereunder in the same manner in which Extended Revolving Commitments of existing Revolving Lenders or Extended Term Loans of
existing Term Lenders or Extended 2016 Term Loans of existing 2016 Term Lenders are incorporated hereunder pursuant to this Section 2.18. 

(d) Extension Amendment. Extended Revolving Commitments, Extended Term Loans, Extended 2016 Term Loans and Revolving Commitments and
term loan commitments of Additional Extending Lenders shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrower, the Agent and each Extending Lender and each Additional
Extending Lender, if any, providing an Extended Revolving Commitment, an Extended Term Loan, an Extended 2016 Term Loan, a new Revolving Credit Commitment, or a term loan commitment as applicable, thereunder, which shall be consistent with the
provisions set forth in Sections 2.18(a), (b) and (c) above (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender). The effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each
of the 







 
conditions set forth in Section 4.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Agent, receipt by the Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates
consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be
amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Revolving Commitments, the Extended Term Loans, the Extended 2016 Term Loans,
the new Revolving Commitments, or the term loan commitments as the case may be, incurred pursuant thereto and (ii) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable
opinion of the Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section. 
 SECTION 2.19. Increase in Commitments. 

(a) Reserved. 
 (b)
Request for Increase After April 8, 2016. In addition to the Borrowers’ rights to request a FILO Facility under Section 2.20, after April 8, 2016, provided no Default or Event of Default then exists or would arise
therefrom, upon notice to the Agent (which shall promptly notify the Revolving Lenders) and the Co-Collateral Agents, the Borrowers may make Revolving Commitment Increase requests from time to time (which Revolving Commitment Increase may take the
form of a term loan tranche); provided, however, that (w) no such Revolving Commitment Increase may be made without the consent of the Co-Collateral Agents, whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (x) the aggregate
amount of all Revolving Commitment Increases pursuant to this Section 2.19(b) following April 8, 2016 shall not exceed $250,000,000, (y) each Revolving Commitment Increase request shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000,000, and
(z) the Borrowers may request a maximum of four Revolving Commitment Increases. At the time of sending such notice, the Borrowers (in consultation with the Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Revolving Lender is requested to
respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Revolving Lenders). 
 (c)
Lender Elections. Each Revolving Lender shall notify the Agent within the time period described in Section 2.19(b) whether or not it agrees to increase its Revolving Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or
less than its Revolving Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Commitment Increase request. Any Revolving Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Commitment. No Revolving Lender shall
have any obligation to increase its Revolving Commitment. 
 (d) Notification by Agent. The Agent shall notify the Borrowers, each
Revolving Lender and the Lead Arrangers, of the Revolving Lenders’ responses to each request made under Section 2.19(b). To achieve the full amount of any Revolving Commitment Increase specified in any Revolving Commitment Increase
request, subject to the approval of the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), to the extent that the existing Revolving Lenders decline to increase their Revolving Commitments, or decline to increase their Revolving Commitments
in the full amount requested by the Borrowers, other consenting Eligible Assignees (each an “Additional Commitment Lender”) may become a Revolving Lender hereunder and furnish a Revolving Commitment in the amount requested by the
Borrowers under Section 2.19(b) and not accepted by the existing Revolving Lenders, provided, however, that without the consent of the Agent, at no time shall the Revolving Commitment of any Additional Commitment Lender be less
than $10,000,000. At the request of the Borrowers, one or more of the Lead Arrangers, in consultation with the Borrowers, may, but shall not be required, to use their reasonable efforts to arrange for Revolving Commitments from Additional Commitment
Lenders. 
 (e) Conditions to Effectiveness of each Commitment Increase. As a condition precedent to each Revolving Commitment
Increase, (i) the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of each Borrower dated as of the applicable Increase Effective Date signed by an Authorized Officer of such Borrower (A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted
by the board of directors (or other applicable governing body) of such Borrower approving or consenting to such Revolving Commitment Increase, and (B) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase, the
representations and warranties contained in Article V hereof and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent (1) such representations or warranties are
qualified by a materiality standard, in which case they 







 
shall be true and correct in all respects, and (2) such representations or warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and
correct in all material respects as of such earlier date), (ii) the Loan Parties other than the Borrowers shall deliver an “acknowledgment and acceptance” of the Revolving Commitment Increase in form reasonably satisfactory to the
Agent, (iii) if applicable, the Borrowers, the Agent, and any Additional Commitment Lender shall have executed and delivered a joinder to the Loan Documents in such form as the Agent shall reasonably require; (iv) to the extent that the
Revolving Commitment Increase shall take the form of a term loan tranche, this Agreement shall be amended, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, to include such terms as are customary for a term loan commitment, including that
the term loan advances shall (A) have a maturity date no earlier than the Extended Termination Date, (B) if subject to amortization, shall have an average weighted life not less than the Extended Termination Date, and (C) may not be
voluntarily prepaid unless contemporaneously therewith, the other Revolving Commitments are ratably permanently reduced; (iv) the Borrowers shall have paid such fees to the applicable Lead Arrangers (to the extent that such Lead Arrangers
provide assistance in arranging the Revolving Commitment Increases of Additional Commitment Lenders), the Additional Commitment Lenders and the other Revolving Lenders who agree to increase their Revolving Commitments, as the Borrowers and the
applicable Lead Arrangers, the Additional Commitment Lenders and the other Revolving Lenders, respectively, may agree; (v) the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent and the Lenders an opinion or opinions, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Agent, from counsel to the Borrowers reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and dated such date; (vi) the Borrowers shall have delivered to the Agent an updated Borrowing Base Certificate dated as of the Increase Effective
Date, and (vii) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or result from the Revolving Commitment Increase. The Borrowers shall prepay any Advances outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant
to Section 9.04(c)) and may borrow on a non-ratable basis from any Revolving Lender or Additional Commitment Lender committed to a portion of the applicable Revolving Commitment Increase, in each case to the extent necessary to keep the
outstanding Advances ratable with any revised Revolving Commitment Percentage arising from any non-ratable increase in the Revolving Commitments under this Section. 

Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Agent may take any and all further action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all
Advances in respect of Revolving Commitment Increases, when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Advances on a pro rata basis. The Borrower agrees that Section 9.04(c) shall apply to any conversion of Eurodollar Rate
Advances to Base Rate Advances reasonably required by the Agent to effect the foregoing. 
 (f) Effective Date and Allocations. If
the Revolving Commitments are increased after April 8, 2016 in accordance with this Section, the Agent (in consultation with the Borrowers) shall determine the effective date (each, an “Increase Effective Date”) and the final
allocation of the Revolving Commitment Increase, giving effect to the occurrence of the applicable Increase Effective Date. The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Revolving Lenders of such final allocation and the Increase Effective
Date, and on the Increase Effective Date (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitments under, and for all purposes of, this Agreement shall be increased by the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitment Increase, and (ii) the applicable
Schedule to the Agreement shall be deemed modified, without further action, to reflect the revised Commitments of the Revolving Lenders. 

(g) Other Provisions That portion of the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender and Additional Commitment Lender constituting
its portion of any Revolving Commitment Increase under this Section 2.19 (i) other than in the case of a term loan, shall bear interest and be entitled to receive letter of credit fees at the rates provided for 2015 Extending Lenders,
(ii) shall, other than in the case of a term loan, receive Commitment Fees based on Section 2.05(a) hereof, (iii) shall terminate on the Extended Termination Date or in the case of a term loan on or after the Extended Termination
Date, and (iv) except as provided in clause (e) hereof, shall otherwise be on the same terms as set forth in, and be entitled to the benefits of, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

(h) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.16 or 9.01 to the contrary. Each of the parties
hereto hereby agrees that, upon any Increase Effective Date, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Revolving Commitment Increase, without need for further
consents pursuant to Section 9.01. Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Agent with the Borrowers’ and Co-Collateral Agents’ consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and furnished to the other parties
hereto. 







 SECTION 2.20. FILO Facility. 

(a) Request for FILO Facility After July 21, 2015. In addition to the Borrowers’ rights to request a Revolving Commitment
Increase under Section 2.19, after July 21, 2015, provided no Default or Event of Default then exists or would arise therefrom, upon notice to the Agent (which shall promptly notify the Revolving Lenders) and the Co-Collateral Agents, the
Borrowers may request that the Revolving Lenders establish a “first-in, last-out” facility (the “FILO Facility”), which may take the form of either a revolving or term facility; provided, however, that
(w) the consent of the Co-Collateral Agents, whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall be required for the establishment of a FILO Facility, (x) the aggregate FILO Commitments and FILO Loans shall not exceed $500,000,000 in
the aggregate at any one time outstanding, (y) any request for the establishment of a FILO Facility shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000,000, and (z) there shall be no more than one FILO Facility outstanding at any time. In order to
establish any FILO Facility, the Borrowers shall provide a notice to the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents setting forth the proposed terms of the FILO Facility, which shall be determined in consultation with the Agent and, in any case, include the
following: (i) the same maturity date as the Extended Termination Date, or any later date for the termination of Revolving Commitments established pursuant to Section 2.18, (ii) provide that payments of interest and fees
(including both commitment and up-front fees) may be at different rates on the FILO Facility from those relating to the Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), the Term Loan and the 2016 Term Loan, (iii) require that the FILO Facility
be (A) to the extent the FILO Facility is a term loan facility, fully funded on the effective date thereof, and (B) to the extent the FILO Facility is a revolving facility, funded on the effective date thereof in an amount not less than
the lesser of the full amount thereof and the amount necessary to repay any then outstanding Advances, and thereafter be drawn in full prior to the making of any Advance under the Revolving Commitments, (iv) provide for a draw condition on the
FILO Facility that the aggregate amount outstanding under the FILO Facility shall not exceed the lesser of (1) Incremental Availability and (2) the FILO Commitment, (v) provide that FILO Loans may not be prepaid, or the FILO
Commitments reduced, in whole or in part unless no Default or Event of Default then exists and is continuing and, after giving effect to such prepayment or reduction, Pro Forma and Projected Capped Excess Availability is at least 50% of the Line
Cap, (vi) require the Agent to establish and adjust the FILO Reserve as and when applicable, (vii) include such inter-lender provisions as may be reasonably acceptable to the Co-Collateral Agents, and (viii) include such other
modifications (including, without limitation, to the definitions of “Required Lenders” and “Supermajority Lenders”) as the Co-Collateral Agents and the Borrowers may determine necessary or appropriate. At the time of sending such
notice, the Borrowers (in consultation with the Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Revolving Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the
Revolving Lenders). 
 (b) Lender Elections. Each Revolving Lender shall notify the Agent within the time period described in
Section 2.20(a) whether or not it agrees to participate in the FILO Facility and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Revolving Commitment Percentage. Any Revolving Lender not responding within such time period
shall be deemed to have declined to participate in the FILO Facility. No Revolving Lender shall have any obligation to participate in the FILO Facility. 

(c) Notification by Agent. The Agent shall notify the Borrowers, each Revolving Lender and the Lead Arrangers, of the Revolving
Lenders’ responses to each request made under Section 2.20(a). To achieve the full amount of the FILO Facility specified in any request made by the Borrowers, subject to the approval of the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld), to the extent that the existing Revolving Lenders decline to participate in the FILO Facility, or decline to participate in an amount equal to its Revolving Commitment Percentage, other consenting Eligible Assignees may become a FILO
Lender hereunder and furnish a FILO Commitment in the amount requested by the Borrowers under Section 2.20(a) and not accepted by the existing Revolving Lenders, provided, however, that without the consent of the Agent, at no time
shall the FILO Commitment of any FILO Lender be less than $10,000,000, and provided, further that, at no time shall any Permitted Holder and/or Significant Holder hold any portion of any FILO Facility hereunder, except
that Permitted Holders and/or Significant Holders may hold all or any portion of the 2018 FILO Facility. At the request of the Borrowers, one or more of the Lead Arrangers, in consultation with the Borrowers, may, but shall not be required, to use
their reasonable efforts to arrange for FILO Commitments from Eligible Assignees. 







 (d) Conditions to Effectiveness of FILO Facility. As a condition precedent to the
establishment of the FILO Facility after July 21, 2015, (i) the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of each Borrower signed by an Authorized Officer of such Borrower (A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted
by the board of directors (or other applicable governing body) of such Borrower approving or consenting to the establishment of the FILO Facility, and (B) certifying that, before and after giving effect to the establishment of the FILO
Facility, the representations and warranties contained in Article V hereof and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the effective date of the FILO Facility, except to the extent (1) such
representations or warranties are qualified by a materiality standard, in which case they shall be true and correct in all respects, and (2) such representations or warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such
representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date), (ii) the Loan Parties other than the Borrowers shall deliver an “acknowledgment and acceptance” of the establishment of the
FILO Facility in form reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, (iii) the Borrowers shall have paid such fees to the applicable Lead Arrangers (to the extent that such Lead Arrangers provide assistance in arranging the FILO Facility), and the FILO
Lenders, as the Borrowers and the applicable Lead Arrangers and the FILO Lenders, respectively, may agree; (iv) the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent and the Lenders an opinion or opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Agent, from counsel to the Borrowers reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and dated such date; (v) the Borrowers shall have delivered to the Agent an updated Borrowing Base Certificate dated as of the effective date of the FILO Facility,
(vi) if applicable, the Borrowers, the Agent, and any Eligible Assignee which becomes a FILO Lender shall have executed and delivered a joinder to the Loan Documents in such form as the Agent shall reasonably require; (vii) this Agreement
shall have been amended to the extent necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the FILO Facility and to effect other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of
the Agent and the Borrowers to effect the provisions of this Section, with the consent of the FILO Lenders, the Co-Collateral Agents and the Borrower (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld) , but without the need for further consents from
the Lenders, and (viii) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or result from the establishment of the FILO Facility. The Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the FILO Facility to prepay any Advances outstanding on the effective date thereof
(and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 9.04(c)); provided that, in the event the FILO Facility takes the form of a term loan facility, the Borrowers may decline to prepay the Advances outstanding on the
effective date thereof if, immediately after giving effect to the funding of the FILO Facility and the application of the proceeds thereof, Capped Excess Availability is not less than the sum of (1) $150,000,000 plus (2) the amount of the
proceeds of such FILO Facility, net of related fees and expenses paid at the closing of such FILO Facility. 
 (e) Effective Date and
Allocations. If the FILO Facility is established after July 21, 2015 in accordance with this Section, the Agent (in consultation with the Borrowers) shall determine the effective date and the final allocation of the FILO Commitments. The
Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the FILO Lenders of such final allocation and the effective date of the FILO Facility, and on the effective date the Schedule to the Agreement shall be deemed modified, without further action, to reflect
the FILO Commitments of the FILO Lenders. 
 SECTION 2.21. Permitted Overadvances. The Agent may, in its discretion, make Permitted
Overadvances without the consent of the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lenders, and each Lender shall be bound thereby. Any Permitted Overadvance may constitute a Swingline Advance. A Permitted Overadvance is for the account of the
Borrowers and shall constitute a Base Rate Advance and an Obligation (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) and shall be repaid by the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.03(b) or 2.11(c), as applicable. The
making of any such Permitted Overadvance on any one occasion shall not obligate the Agent or any Lender to make or permit any Permitted Overadvance on any other occasion or to permit such Permitted Overadvances to remain outstanding. The making by
the Agent of a Permitted Overadvance shall not modify or abrogate any of the provisions of Article III regarding the Lenders’ obligations to purchase participations with respect to Letters of Credit or of Section 2.04 regarding the
Lenders’ obligations to purchase participations with respect to Swingline Advance. The Agent shall have no liability for, and no Loan Party or Credit Party shall have the right to, or shall, bring any claim of any kind whatsoever against the
Agent with respect to “inadvertent Overadvances” (i.e. where an Overadvance results from changed circumstances beyond the control of the Agent (such as a reduction in the collateral value)) regardless of the amount of any such
Overadvance(s). 







 ARTICLE III 

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE LETTERS OF CREDIT 

SECTION 3.01. L/C Commitment. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in
Section 3.04(a), agrees to issue Letters of Credit for the account of any Borrower (on behalf of such Borrower or on behalf of any other Group Member) on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Extended Termination
Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Issuing Lender; provided that no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if (i) after giving effect to such issuance, the L/C Obligations would
exceed the L/C Commitment or (ii) the face amount of the requested Letter of Credit, when aggregated with all other then outstanding Extensions of Credit (excluding FILO Extensions of Credit), shall exceed the Line Cap at such time; provided
further that each Issuing Lender may, but shall not be required to, issue Letters of Credit such that the aggregate L/C Obligations attributable to all such outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender exceed $500,000,000. Each
Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars or any other lawful foreign currency which is approved in writing on a case by case basis by the Issuing Lender and the Agent in their sole and absolute discretion and (ii) expire no
later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance, or (y) subject to the provisions of Section 6.01(p), the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Extended 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, subject to the provisions of Section 6.01(p)) shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause
(y) above). Each Application and each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the International Standby Practices (ISP 98) of the International Chamber of Commerce (in the case of Standby L/Cs) or the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary
Credits as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce (in the case of Commercial L/Cs) and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York. 

(b) The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if (i) such issuance would conflict with, or
cause the Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law, (ii) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain
the Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to the Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Lender shall
prohibit, or request that the Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or
capital requirement (for which the Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective
Date and which the Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it; (iii) such issuance would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally, or (iv) any Revolving Lender is at such time a
Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of cash collateral, satisfactory to the Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion) with the Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate
the Issuing Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 8.12(a)(iv) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either (x) the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or
(y) that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which the Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion. 

SECTION 3.02. Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. (a) Any Borrower may from time to time request that the Issuing Lender
issue a Commercial L/C or Standby L/C for its account (on behalf of such Borrower or on behalf of any other Group Member) 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 such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may reasonably 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 notify the Agent of the issuance, extension or amendment of Letters of Credit and any drawings or other payments under Letters of Credit. 

(b) Any letter of credit issued by an Issuing Lender under any Other LC Facility for the account of a Borrower (each, an “Other
LC”), may, at the election of the Borrowers and with the consent of the applicable Issuing Lender, be deemed issued under this Agreement, provided that (1) the Borrowers execute and deliver a Transfer Notice to the Agent three
(3) Business Days prior to the date proposed for the transfer of such Other LC to governance hereunder (the “Transfer Date”), (2) the issuance of such Other LC would be permitted under this Agreement and all conditions
precedent to such issuance would be satisfied on the Transfer Date as if such letters of credit were newly issued hereunder on the Transfer Date, (3) after giving effect to the transfer of the Other LC, either (x) Projected and Pro Forma
Capped Excess Availability shall be at least 50% of the Line Cap, or (y) both (i) Projected and Pro Forma Capped Excess Availability shall be at least 25% of the Line Cap, and (ii) the Pro Forma Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be at
least 1.0: 1.0, and (4) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the Transfer Date, or shall arise as a result of the deemed issuance of such Other LC hereunder. 

(c) Any Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Lender under this Agreement for the account of a Borrower, may, at the election of the Borrowers
and with the consent of the applicable Issuing Lender, be deemed issued under any Other LC Facility, provided that (1) the Borrowers and the issuing lender under the Other LC Facility execute and deliver an Other LC Transfer Notice to the Agent
three (3) Business Days prior to the date proposed for the transfer of such Letter of Credit to governance under the Other LC Facility (the “Other LC Transfer Date”), (2) after giving effect to such transfer to the Other
LC Facility, outstanding Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement shall be in an aggregate stated amount of at least $500,000,000, and (3) the issuance of such Other LC would be permitted under the Other LC Facility and all conditions
precedent to such issuance would be satisfied on the Other LC Transfer Date as if such letters of credit were newly issued thereunder on the Other LC Transfer Date. 

SECTION 3.03. Fees and Other Charges. (a) The Borrowers will pay a fee on the face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit
(provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms provides for one or more automatic increases in the amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum amount of such Letter of
Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum amount is in effect at such time) at a per annum rate equal to (i) in the case of each Standby L/C and Banker’s Acceptance, (A) with respect to the 2015
Non-Extending Lenders (to be shared ratably amongst them), the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Rate Advances and (B) with respect to 2015 Extending Lenders (to be shared ratably amongst them), the Extended Term
Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Rate Advances and (ii) in the case of each Commercial L/C, (A) with respect to the 2015 Non-Extending Lenders, 50% of the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to
Eurodollar Rate Advances and (B) with respect to 2015 Extending Lenders, 50% of the Extended Term Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Rate Advances, in each case payable quarterly in arrears the 5th day subsequent to the last day of each April, July, October and January after the issuance date (provided that, during the continuation of a Cash Dominion Event, such payment shall be made on
the 5th day subsequent to the last day of each month after the issuance date). In addition, the Borrowers shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee in an amount to be
agreed upon by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Borrowers (but in no event to exceed 0.125% per annum) on the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on the 5th day subsequent to the last day of each April, July, October and January after the issuance date (provided that, during the continuation of a Cash Dominion Event, such payment shall be made on
the 5th day subsequent to the last day of each month 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, unless otherwise agreed. 

SECTION 3.04. Letter of Credit Participations. (a) The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each
Revolving Lender, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each Revolving Lender 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 Revolving Lender’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment 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 Revolving Lender 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, such Revolving Lender shall pay to the Issuing Lender upon demand at the Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment
Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including
(i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender may have against the Issuing Lender, the Borrowers 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 Article IV, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, (iv) any breach of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other Revolving Lender or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each
Revolving Lender shall only be obligated to make any such payment in Dollars (and not any foreign currency) in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.10 hereof. 

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any Revolving Lender to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(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 Revolving Lender 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 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 Revolving Lender pursuant to
Section 3.04(a) is not made available to the Issuing Lender by such Revolving Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Lender, on demand, such
amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum set forth in Section 2.08(a)(i) or Section 2.08(d)(i), as applicable, applicable to Base Rate Advances. A certificate of the Issuing Lender submitted to any
Revolving Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 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 Revolving Lender its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.04(a), the Issuing Lender receives any payment
related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the applicable 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 Revolving Lender its pro rata share thereof (appropriately adjusted to reflect whether such payment is owed to a Non-Extending Lender (including a 2015 Non-Extending Lender) or an Extending Lender (including a 2015 Extending Lender)
and whether the corresponding interest rate owed to such Lender is calculated in accordance with Section 2.08(a) or 2.08(d)); 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 Revolving Lender shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it. 

SECTION 3.05. Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers. If any draft is paid under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall
reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of (a) the draft so paid and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment, not later than 12:00 Noon on (i) the
Business Day that the applicable Borrower receives notice of such draft, if such notice is received on such day prior to 10:00 A.M. or (ii) if clause (i) above does not apply, the 







 
Business Day immediately following the day that the applicable Borrower receives such notice; provided, that if the total reimbursement amount set forth in clauses (a) or
(b) above is not less than $5,000,000 or $500,000, respectively, the applicable Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request that such reimbursement be financed with a Base Rate Advance or Swingline Advance in
an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Advance. Each such payment shall be made to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices
referred to herein in Dollars (or if the Letter of Credit is issued in a currency other than Dollars, in such currency or the Dollar equivalent thereof calculated in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.10) 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 2.08(a)(i) or Section 2.08(d)(i), as applicable, with respect to the portions of the applicable draft attributable to 2015 Non-Extending Lenders and 2015 Extending Lenders, respectively, and (y) thereafter,
Section 2.08(e). 
 SECTION 3.06. Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall be
absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, 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. Each Borrower also agrees with the Issuing Lender that the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and such Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.05 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 such 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 such 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. Each Borrower agrees 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 such Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to such Borrower. 

SECTION 3.07. Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender
shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower 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. 
 SECTION 3.08. Applications. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit
is inconsistent with the provisions of this Article III, the provisions of this Article III shall apply. 
 SECTION 3.09. Use of Letters
of Credit. The Letters of Credit shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such Letters of Credit) for general corporate purposes of Holdings and its Subsidiaries. 

SECTION 3.10. Currency Equivalents Generally. Any amount specified in this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 3.05 above) to
be in a currency other than Dollars shall also include the equivalent of such amount in Dollars, such equivalent amount to be determined by the Agent at such time on the basis of the Spot Rate (as defined below) for the purchase of such currency
with Dollars. For purposes of this Section 3.10, the “Spot Rate” for a currency means the rate determined by the Agent to be the rate quoted by the Person acting in such capacity as the spot rate for the purchase by such Person of
such currency with another currency through its principal foreign exchange trading office at approximately 11:00 a.m. on the date two Business Days prior to the date of such determination; provided that the Agent may obtain such spot rate from
another financial institution designated by the Agent if the Person acting in such capacity does not have as of the date of determination a spot buying rate for any such currency.

 (ii) no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Extension of Credit or from
the application of the proceeds therefrom, that constitutes a Default or an Event of Default; and 
 (iii) after giving
effect to such Extension of Credit, (A) the Total Extensions of Credit (other than FILO Extensions of Credit) will not exceed the Line Cap, and (B) no Collateral Coverage Event (as defined in the Indenture for the Existing Second Lien

 The conditions set forth in this Section 4.02 are for the sole benefit of the Credit Parties but until
the Required Lenders otherwise direct the Agent to cease making Extensions of Credit, the Revolving Lenders will fund their Revolving Commitment Percentage of all Advances and participate in all Swingline Advances and Letters of Credit whenever made
or issued, which are requested by a Borrower and which, notwithstanding the failure of the Loan Parties to comply with the provisions of this Article IV, are agreed to by the Agent acting in the interests of the Credit Parties, provided,
however, the making of any such Extensions of Credit shall not be deemed a modification or waiver by any Credit Party of the provisions of this Article IV on any future occasion or a waiver of any rights or the Credit Parties as a result of any such
failure to comply. 
 ARTICLE V 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

SECTION 5.01. Representations and Warranties of the Borrowers. Holdings and the Borrowers hereby jointly and severally represent and
warrant as follows: 
 (a) Each Loan Party (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization and (ii) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, are within such Loan Party’s powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational action, and do not contravene (i) the charter or by-laws or other organizational or governing
documents of such Loan Party or (ii) law or any contractual restriction binding on or affecting any Loan Party, except, for purposes of this clause (ii), to the extent such contravention would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 







 (c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any
governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of any Loan Document to which it is a party that has not already been obtained if the failure to obtain
such authorization, approval or other action could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (d) Each Loan Document
has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document will constitute upon execution, the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto enforceable
against such Loan Party in accordance with its respective terms subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and subject to general
principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity). 
 (e) The consolidated balance
sheet of Holdings and its Subsidiaries as at January 31, 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income and cash flows of Holdings and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year then ended, accompanied by an opinion of Deloitte &
Touche LLP, independent public accountants, copies of which have been furnished to the Agent, fairly present the consolidated financial condition of Holdings and its Subsidiaries as at such date and the consolidated results of the operations of
Holdings and its Subsidiaries for the period ended on such date, all in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. 
 (f) Since
January 31, 2015, there has been no event or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(g) There is no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding, including any Environmental Action, which is pending or, to Holdings or
any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened affecting Holdings, the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries before any court, Governmental Authority or arbitrator that would, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect other than as reported in filings with the SEC made prior to the date hereof. 
 (h) Following application of
the proceeds of each Advance, FILO Loan, the Term Loan and the 2016 Term Loan and the issuance of each Letter of Credit, not more than five (5%) percent of the value of the assets of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis will be margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). 

(i) 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. 
 (j) All United States Federal income tax returns and all other material tax
returns which are required to be filed have been filed by or on behalf of Holdings, the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries, and all taxes due with respect to Holdings, the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to such returns
or pursuant to any assessment received by Holdings, the Borrowers or any Subsidiary have been paid except to the extent permitted in Section 6.01(b). The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of Holdings, the Borrowers and their
Subsidiaries in respect of taxes or other governmental charges have been made in accordance with, and to the extent required by, GAAP. 

(k) All written factual information heretofore furnished by Holdings, the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries to the Agent, any Co-Collateral
Agent or any Lender (including the Perfection Certificate) for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, taken as a whole, was true and correct in all material respects on the date as of which such information was
stated or certified, provided that with respect to projected financial information, the Loan Parties represent only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time. 







 (l) (i) Each Loan Party has title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its
real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other property necessary for the conduct of its business and except as, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and
(ii) no Inventory, Credit Card Account Receivable, DC or Related Intellectual Property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 6.02(a). 

(m) Except as, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (i) each Loan Party owns, or is
licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted; (ii) no material claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any Intellectual Property
or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property, nor do Holdings or the Borrowers know of any valid basis for any such claim; and (iii) the use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not infringe on the rights of any
Person in any material respect. 
 (n) Except as set forth on Schedule 5.01(n) or as would not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect, (i) neither a Reportable Event nor a failure to meet minimum required contributions (in accordance with Section 430 or any prior applicable section of the Internal Revenue Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has
occurred during the five year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, (ii) each Plan is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code and other
applicable federal or state laws, and (iii) no termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.01(n), no Lien imposed under the Internal Revenue Code or ERISA exists on account of any Plan, and no
Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. Each Single Employer Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has received a favorable determination letter from the United
States Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and, to the best knowledge of Holdings and the Borrowers, nothing has occurred which would cause the loss of, such qualification. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.01(n) or as would
not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Loan Parties and each ERISA Affiliate have made all required contributions to each Plan subject to Section 430 of the Internal Revenue Code, and no application for a funding
waiver or an extension of any amortization period pursuant to Section 430 of the Internal Revenue Code has been made with respect to any Plan. There are no pending or, to the best knowledge of Holdings and the Borrowers, threatened claims,
actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Plan that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary duty rules with
respect to any Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur, in each case that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. Neither any Loan Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or would reasonably be expected to incur, any liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Pension Plan, other than premiums due and not delinquent under
Section 4007 of ERISA or as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; neither any Loan Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any liability (and, to the knowledge of the Borrowers,
no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would result in such liability) under Sections 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a Multiemployer Plan except as would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect; and neither any Loan Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction that would reasonably be expected to be subject to Sections 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, neither Holdings, the Borrowers nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal (as such terms are defined in Sections 4203 and 4205 of ERISA, respectively) from any Multiemployer Plan that has
resulted or would reasonably be expected to result in a liability under ERISA. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent except as would not reasonably be expected to result in aggregate liability to Holdings and its Subsidiaries
of $100,000,000 or more. 
 (o) Except as, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect, no Group Member (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any
Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability. 







 (p) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Co-Collateral
Agents, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. When financing statements and other filings specified on Schedule 5.01(p) in appropriate
form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 5.01(p), the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall, to the extent a security interest therein can be perfected by filing a UCC financing statement, constitute a fully perfected Lien on,
and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations, in each case prior and superior in right to the Lien or claim of any other Person (except Liens
permitted by Section 6.02(a) which by operation of law would have priority over the Liens securing the Obligations). 
 (q) The Loan
Parties, taken as a whole, are, and after giving effect to the incurrence of all Debt and obligations incurred in connection herewith will be, Solvent. 

(r) The properties of the Loan Parties are insured as required pursuant to Section 6.01(c) hereof. Each insurance policy required to be
maintained by the Loan Parties pursuant to Section 6.01(c) is in full force and effect and all premiums in respect thereof that are due and payable have been paid. 

(s) As of July 21, 2015: (1) except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate, there are no outstanding rights to purchase any
equity interests in any Subsidiary of a Loan Party, and (2) the copies of the organization and governing documents of each Loan Party and each amendment hereto provided pursuant to Section 4.01are true and correct copies of each such
document, each of which is valid and in full force and effect. 
 (t) As of July 21, 2015, except as would not reasonably be expected
to have individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, (a) there are no strikes, lockouts, slowdowns or other material labor disputes against any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or any
Borrower, threatened, (b) the hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Loan Parties comply with the Fair Labor Standards Act and any other applicable federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters, (c) all
payments due from any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries, or for which any claim may be made against any Loan Party, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or properly accrued in accordance with
GAAP as a liability on the books of such Loan Party. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.01(t) (as updated by the Borrowers from time to time) (i) no Loan Party or any Subsidiary is a party to or bound by any collective bargaining
agreement, management agreement or any material bonus, restricted stock, stock option, or stock appreciation plan or agreement or any similar plan, agreement or arrangement (excluding in each case individual employment agreements) and (ii) no
employee of a Loan Party is also an employee of the Permitted Holder. There are no representation proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or any Borrower, threatened to be filed with the National Labor Relations Board, and no labor
organization or group of employees of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary has made a pending demand for recognition, in each case which would individually or in the aggregate reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. There are no
complaints, unfair labor practice charges, grievances, arbitrations, unfair employment practices charges or any other claims or complaints against any Loan Party or any Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or any Borrower, threatened
to be filed with any Governmental Authority or arbitrator based on, arising out of, in connection with, or otherwise relating to the employment or termination of employment of any employee of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries which would,
individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the
part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, except as would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 

(u) No broker or finder brought about the obtaining, making or closing of the Advances, the Term Loan or, the 2016
Term Loan or the 2018 FILO Loan or transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, and, other than amounts payable pursuant to the Fee Letters, no Loan Party or Affiliate thereof has any obligation to any Person in respect of any
finder’s or brokerage fees in connection therewith. 
 (v) No Loan Party has any obligation to any Permitted Holder with respect to any
consulting, management or similar fee; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not apply to (i) any 







 
arrangement disclosed in Holdings’ annual report on form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015; (ii) any employment arrangement between any Loan Party and an individual
Person who is also an employee of a Permitted Holder, so long as such employment arrangements are (x) on terms that are fair and reasonable and comparable to terms provided to employees in comparable positions for companies of a comparable size
and no less favorable to such Loan Party than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an employee of a Permitted Holder and (y) in the case of any officer (as defined in Rule 16a-1 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) or director of Holdings, any beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of more than 10.0% of Holdings’ equity interests or any Person that ranks in the top five in
compensation among all employees of the Loan Parties, approved by a majority of disinterested members of the board of directors of Holdings in good faith; or (iii) any obligation arising from any financial advisory, financing or underwriting
services or other investment banking activities provided by a Permitted Holder so long as (x) such services directly relate to and are provided in conjunction with an acquisition or divestiture or other specific transaction conducted outside
the ordinary course of business, (y) such services are on terms that are fair and reasonable and comparable to terms provided by independent financial advisory, financing or underwriting service provider or other investment banking service
providers and (z) compensation for such services are approved by a majority of disinterested members of the board of directors of Holdings in good faith. 

(w) To the extent applicable, each Loan Party is in compliance, in all material respects, with (i) the United States Trading with the
Enemy Act, as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 C.F.R., Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, (ii) the
PATRIOT Act, (iii) the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, and (iv) the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act, as amended (the “FCPA”). No part of the proceeds of any credit extensions will be used, directly
or, to the Loan Parties’ knowledge, indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order
to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the FCPA. 
 (x) None of Holdings, the Borrowers, any
of their respective Subsidiaries, nor any Permitted Holder or Significant Holder is an Affiliate of the Sears Holdings Pension Plan. The Sears Holdings Pension Plan qualifies as an Eligible Assignee pursuant to the definition thereof (without giving
effect to clause (c) of such definition). 
 (y) None of Holdings, the Borrowers, nor any of their respective Subsidiaries, nor, to the
knowledge of the Borrowers, any director, officer, employee, agent or affiliate of the Borrowers is an individual or entity (for purposes of this clause (x), a “Person”) that is, or is owned or controlled by Persons that are the
subject of any sanctions (A) administered or enforced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty’s Treasury or other applicable
sanctions authority or (B) pursuant to the U.S. Iran Sanctions Act, as amended, or Executive Order 13590 (collectively, “Sanctions”) or (C) located, organized or resident in a country or territory that is, or whose government is,
the subject of Sanctions (including, without limitation, Burma/Myanmar, Iran, North Korea, Sudan and Syria). The Loan Parties will not, directly or, to their knowledge, indirectly, use the proceeds of any credit extensions, or lend, contribute or
otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person in any manner that would directly or indirectly result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person. 

ARTICLE VI 
 COVENANTS 

SECTION 6.01. Affirmative Covenants. So long as any Advance or other Obligation (other than contingent indemnification obligations for
which no claim shall have then been asserted) shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding (unless the same has been cash collateralized in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such
Letters of Credit and all other Reimbursement Obligations or back-to-back letters of credit from an issuer and on terms acceptable to the Issuing Lender have been provided in respect of such Letters of Credit) or any Lender shall have any Commitment
hereunder, each of Holdings and the Borrowers will, and will cause each of their Subsidiaries to: 







 (a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Comply in all respects with all applicable Requirements of
Law, such compliance to include compliance with ERISA and Environmental Laws, except for such non-compliance as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) Payment of Taxes, Etc. Pay and discharge before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all taxes, assessments and governmental
charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its property (ii) all payments required to be made to any Pension Plan, and (iii) all lawful claims that, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon its property; provided that neither
Holdings, the Borrowers nor any of their Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or discharge any such tax, assessment, charge or claim (x) that is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves are
being maintained, unless and until any Lien resulting therefrom attaches to its property and becomes enforceable against its other creditors or (y) if such non-payments, either individually or in the aggregate, would not be reasonably expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) Maintenance of Insurance. Maintain insurance with responsible and reputable insurance
companies or associations in such amounts and covering such risks as is consistent with prudent business practice; provided that Holdings, the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries may self-insure to the extent consistent with prudent business
practice; provided further that policies maintained with respect to any Collateral located at a warehouse or DC shall provide coverage for Inventory at (x) the retail selling price of such Inventory less any permanent markdowns,
consistent with the Loan Parties’ past practices, or (y) another selling price permitted by the Co-Collateral Agents in their Permitted Discretion. None of the Credit Parties shall be a co-insurer with any Loan Party or any other Person
with respect to any fire and extended coverage policies maintained with respect to any Collateral without the prior written consent of the Co-Collateral Agents. Fire and extended coverage policies maintained with respect to any Collateral shall be
endorsed or otherwise amended to include a non-contributing lenders’ loss payable clause, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Co-Collateral Agents, which endorsements or amendments shall provide that during a Cash Dominion
Event, the insurer shall pay all proceeds otherwise payable to the Loan Parties under the policies directly to the Co-Collateral Agents, as their interests may appear, in accordance with Section 6.01(m). Within thirty (30) days following
delivery of written notice from the Agent to Holdings, Holdings shall notify the insurers and use commercially reasonable efforts to have such policies amended to include such other provisions as the Co-Collateral Agents may reasonably require from
time to time to protect the interests of the Credit Parties. Commercial general liability policies shall be endorsed to name the Co-Collateral Agents as additional insureds, as their interests may appear. Each certificate delivered by the Loan
Parties’ insurance broker with respect to each property insurance policy referred to in this Section 6.01(c) shall also provide that such policy shall not be canceled, modified or not renewed other than upon not less than ten
(10) days’ prior written notice thereof by the insurance broker to the Co-Collateral Agents. The Borrowers shall deliver to the Co-Collateral Agents, prior to the cancellation, modification or non-renewal of any such policy of insurance,
evidence of renewal or replacement of a policy previously delivered to the Co-Collateral Agents, including an insurance binder therefor, together with evidence satisfactory to the Co-Collateral Agents of payment of the premium therefor and, upon
request of the Agent, a copy of such renewal or replacement policy. In the event that the Borrowers fail to maintain any such insurance as required pursuant to this Section 6.01(c), the Agent may obtain such insurance on behalf of the Borrowers
and the Loan Parties shall reimburse the Agent as provided herein for all costs and expenses in connection therewith; the Agent’s obtaining of such insurance shall not be deemed a cure or waiver of any Default or Event of Default arising from
the Loan Parties’ failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.01(c). 
 (d) Preservation of Corporate Existence,
Etc. Preserve and maintain its corporate existence, material rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided that (i) Holdings, the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries may consummate any merger or consolidation permitted under
Section 6.02(b); (ii) neither Holdings nor the Borrowers nor any of their Subsidiaries shall be required to preserve or maintain the corporate existence of any Subsidiary (other than Sears, SRAC, Kmart Corp. or any Material Subsidiary
Guarantors) if the Board of Directors of the parent of such Subsidiary, or an executive officer of such parent to whom such Board of Directors has delegated the requisite authority, shall determine that the preservation and maintenance thereof is no
longer desirable in the conduct of the business of such parent and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Borrowers, Sears, any Material Subsidiary Guarantor, such parent or the Lenders; (iii) Sears shall
not be required to preserve or maintain the corporate existence of SRAC, provided that in the event SRAC is 







 
dissolved, merged with or into Holdings or any Subsidiary of Holdings or otherwise ceases to exist, then Sears shall or shall cause a direct wholly owned Domestic Subsidiary of Sears to, execute
and deliver to the Agent an assumption agreement with respect to SRAC’s obligations under the Loan Documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and such other officer certificates, legal opinions, financing statements
(if applicable) and documentation as the Agent reasonably requests; (iv) none of Holdings, the Borrowers or any of Material Subsidiary Guarantors shall be required to preserve any right or franchise of any Subsidiary (other than a Material
Subsidiary Guarantor) if the Board of Directors of Holdings, such Borrower or such Material Subsidiary Guarantor shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business and that the loss thereof is not
disadvantageous in any material respect to Holdings, the Borrowers, such Material Subsidiary Guarantor or the Lenders and (v) no Subsidiary Guarantor which is not a Material Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required to preserve or maintain its
corporate existence if (A) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (B) such Subsidiary Guarantor is merged or liquidated into another Subsidiary Guarantor; provided that contemporaneously with the
occurrence of any of the actions permitted to be taken pursuant to clauses (i) – (v) above, the Borrowers shall furnish to the Co-Collateral Agents an updated Borrowing Base Certificate. 

(e) Inspection Rights. In addition to the Agent’s and the Co-Collateral Agents’ rights under Section 6.01(k) hereof,
subject to reasonable confidentiality limitations and requirements imposed by Holdings or the Borrowers due to competitive concerns or otherwise, at any reasonable time and from time to time (but no more than twice a year unless a Default or an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), permit the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents or any of the Lenders or any agents or representatives thereof, at the Lenders’ expense, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records
and books of account of, and visit the properties of, Holdings, the Borrowers and any of their Subsidiaries, and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of Holdings, the Borrowers and any of their Subsidiaries, as the case may be, with any of
their officers or directors and with their independent certified public accountants.

record and account, in which full and correct entries shall be made of all financial transactions and the assets and business of Holdings, the Borrowers and each such Subsidiary in accordance with GAAP in effect from time to time. 

(g) Maintenance of Properties, Etc. Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 6.02(b), or where the failure to do so,
either individually or in the aggregate, would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, maintain and preserve all of its properties that are used or useful in the conduct of its business in good working order and condition,
ordinary wear and tear excepted. 
 (h) Transactions with Affiliates. Conduct all transactions otherwise permitted under this
Agreement with any of their Affiliates on terms that are fair and reasonable and no less favorable to Holdings, the applicable Borrower or their respective Subsidiaries than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person
not an Affiliate other than (i) as required by any applicable Requirement of Law, (ii) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, transactions between or among the Loan Parties and any of their Subsidiaries,
to the extent not prohibited hereunder, or (iii) if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, transactions in the ordinary course of business between or among the Loan Parties and any of their Subsidiaries and transactions
between or among Loan Parties, to the extent not prohibited hereunder; provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof from entering into employment arrangements with its officers and
retention and other agreements with officers and directors pursuant to the reasonable requirements of its business or (ii) any transactions pursuant to the agreements on Schedule 13 to the Perfection Certificate, as in effect on the date
hereof.

July 21, 2015) related to such receivables and Inventory, promptly cause such new Domestic Subsidiary to (i) become a party to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, (ii) take such actions as the Co-Collateral Agents, may reasonably
request to grant to the Co-Collateral Agents for the benefit of the Credit Parties a security interest, with the priority and perfection required herein, in the Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement held by such new Domestic

(k) Collateral Monitoring and Review. Upon the request of the Agent, any Co-Collateral Agent, or the Required Lenders, after reasonable
notice and during normal business hours, permit the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents or professionals (including, consultants, accountants, and/or appraisers) retained by the Co-Collateral Agents to conduct appraisals, commercial finance examinations
and other evaluations, including, without limitation, of (i) the Loan Parties’ practices in the computation of the Borrowing Base and (ii) the assets included in the Borrowing Base and financial information such as, but not limited
to, sales, gross margins, payables, accruals and reserves, related to the calculation of the Borrowing Base. The Borrowers shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents (including, without
limitation, the reasonable charges of professionals) in connection with two inventory appraisals and two commercial finance examinations each fiscal year (which the Agent and Co-Collateral Agents shall be obligated to undertake for the benefit of
the Credit Parties), provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, if Capped Excess Availability is at any time less than 15% of the Line Cap, the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents may in their discretion, undertake up to three
inventory appraisals and three commercial finance examinations each fiscal year at the Borrowers’ expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents may cause (i) additional appraisals and commercial finance
examinations to be undertaken (A) as each in its Permitted Discretion deems necessary or appropriate, at its own expense, and (B) if required by applicable law or if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in each
case, at the expense of the Borrowers. In connection with any inventory appraisal and commercial finance examination relating to the computation of the Borrowing Base, Holdings shall make such adjustments to the calculation of the Borrowing Base as
the Agent shall, after the expiration of the Reserve Notice Period, reasonably require in its Permitted Discretion based upon the terms of this Agreement and the results of such inventory appraisal and commercial finance examination. Any inventory
appraisal or commercial finance examination requested by the Agent or any Co-Collateral Agent shall be scheduled at such time as the Co-Collateral Agents, in consultation with the Borrowers, may agree in order to minimize any disruption to the
conduct of the Borrowers’ business. 
 (l) Landlord Waivers, Access Agreements and Customs Broker Agreements. (i) Obtain
from each lessor that is a Group Member , and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from each lessor that is not a Group Member, leasing a DC at which Collateral is located to a Loan Party, consents, approvals, Lien waivers and rights to

Agents; (ii) obtain from each Subsidiary of Holdings owning a DC at which Collateral is located, consents, approvals, Lien waivers and rights to access and occupy each such DC (including, without limitation, to take possession and dispose of
the Collateral from each such DC upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default) reasonably satisfactory to the Co-Collateral Agents; (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Loan Party’s customs
brokers to deliver an agreement (including, without limitation, a Customs Broker Agreement) to the Co-Collateral Agents covering such matters and in such form as the Co-Collateral Agents may reasonably require; and (iv) with respect to any
property or assets not constituting Collateral and subject to the Lien of a third party, if requested by the Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause (but shall not be required to cause as a condition of the granting of such Lien) the
holder of such Lien to enter into an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, permitting the Co-Collateral Agents to use such property and assets, at no cost or expense to the Co-Collateral Agents, in connection with the disposition of any of
the Collateral by the Co-Collateral Agents during the continuance of an Event of Default. 
 (m) Cash Management. 

(i) On or prior to July 21, 2015:

substance to the Co-Collateral Agents with each Blocked Account Bank covering the deposit accounts set forth on Schedule 6.01(m)(i)(B) (collectively, the “Blocked Accounts”); and

the form attached hereto as Exhibit H which have been executed on behalf of such Loan Party and addressed to such of each Loan Party’s Third Party Payors relating to Eligible Pharmacy Receivables listed in the Perfection Certificate as
any Co-Collateral Agent shall reasonably request. 
 (ii) The Loan Parties shall ACH or wire transfer daily (or with respect
to DDAs that have historically not been swept daily (and other DDAs with the consent of the Co-Collateral Agents, not to be unreasonably withheld), periodically, consistent with past practices) (and whether or not there are then any outstanding
Obligations and whether or not a Cash Dominion Event then exists) to a Blocked Account all amounts on deposit in each DDA of such Loan Party, other than DDAs that are Excluded Accounts; provided that such covenant shall not apply to
(i) any minimum balance as may be required to be kept in the subject DDA by the depository institution at which such DDA is maintained or (ii) if greater, any amounts maintained by the Loan Parties in such DDAs (and other DDAs with the
consent of the Co-Collateral Agents, not to be unreasonably withheld) in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices. The Loan Parties shall ACH or wire transfer daily to a Blocked Account all payments due from credit card
processors and other proceeds of any of the Collateral. All funds in each DDA and Blocked Account (other than Excluded Accounts) shall be conclusively presumed to be Collateral and proceeds of Collateral and the Agent, Co-Collateral Agents and the
Lenders shall have no duty to inquire as to the source of the amounts on deposit in any DDA or Blocked Account. 
 (iii) To
the extent that any Loan Party hereafter engages a Credit Card Processor other than the Credit Card Processors listed in the Perfection Certificate, or a Third Party Payor other than the Third Party Payors listed in the Perfection Certificate, such
Loan Party shall promptly furnish written notice thereof to the Agent and shall deliver to the Agent an executed Credit Card Notification or Third Party Payor Notification, as applicable, with respect to such Credit Card Processor or Third Party
Payor. Each Credit Card Notification and Third Party Payor Notification shall be held by the Agent until the occurrence of a Cash Dominion Event. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Event, the Agent may deliver such
Credit Card Notifications and Third Party Payor Notifications to the applicable Credit Card Processors and Third Party Payors. 

(iv) Each Blocked Account Agreement shall require, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Event,
the ACH or wire transfer no less frequently than daily (and whether or not there are then any outstanding Obligations) to the Agent’s Account, of all cash receipts and collections held in each applicable Blocked Account (net of any minimum
balance, not to exceed $25,000 (or such greater amount with the consent of the Co-Collateral Agents, not to be unreasonably withheld), as may be required to be kept in the subject Blocked Account by the Blocked Account Bank), including, without
limitation, the following: 
 (A) all available cash receipts from the sale of Inventory and other Collateral; 

(B) all proceeds of collections of Pharmacy Receivables and Credit Card Accounts Receivable; 







 (C) all proceeds from any casualty or other insured damage to, or any taking
under power of eminent domain or by condemnation or similar proceeding of any Collateral; and 
 (D) all Net Proceeds from
any equity issuance by any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries. 
 The Borrowers shall be deemed to have complied with the
provisions of this clause (iv) if they cause the ACH or wire transfer daily of all funds which an Authorized Representative of the Borrowers in good faith believes to be the amount deposited in the Blocked Accounts in excess of $25,000 (or such
greater amount as permitted above in this clause (iv)). 
 (v) The Agent’s Account shall at all times be under the sole
dominion and control of the Co-Collateral Agents. The Loan Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the Loan Parties have no right of withdrawal from the Agent’s Account, (ii) the funds on deposit in the Agent’s Account
shall at all times be collateral security for all of the Obligations, and (iii) the funds on deposit in the Agent’s Account shall be applied as provided in this Agreement. In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 6.01(m), during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Event, any Loan Party receives or otherwise has dominion and control of any such proceeds or collections, such proceeds and collections shall be held in trust by such Loan Party for the
Co-Collateral Agents, shall not be commingled with any of such Loan Party’s other funds or deposited in any account of such Loan Party and shall, not later than the Business Day after receipt thereof, be deposited into the Agent’s Account
or dealt with in such other fashion as such Loan Party may be instructed by the Co-Collateral Agents. During the continuance of a Cash Dominion Event, the amounts deposited into the Agent’s Account shall be applied to the prepayment of the
Advances then outstanding (and if an Event of Default exists and is continuing, to all other Obligations); provided that upon payment in full of such outstanding Advances or Obligations, as applicable, any remaining amounts will be released
and transferred to a deposit account of the Loan Parties as the Borrowers shall direct and the existence of a Cash Dominion Event (other than as the result of the occurrence of an Event of Default) shall not, in and of itself, impair the right of
the Borrowers to Revolving Advances in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 (vi) Upon the request of the Agent, the Loan
Parties shall cause bank statements and/or other reports to be delivered to the Agent not less often than monthly, accurately setting forth all amounts deposited in each Blocked Account to ensure the proper transfer of funds as set forth above. 

(n) Liens on Non-Collateral Assets. In the event of the incurrence of Debt and the granting of a Lien pursuant to
Section 6.02(a)(vi) hereof, grant, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to, grant the Co-Collateral Agents, as security for the Obligations, a Lien on the assets of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries which is the subject of the Lien of the
Person holding such Debt (to the extent that such assets do not then constitute Collateral) pursuant to Section 6.02(a)(vi) hereof. 

(o) Physical Inventories. Cause physical inventories and periodic cycle counts to be undertaken, at the expense of the Loan Parties, in
each case consistent with past practices (but in no event less frequently than one physical inventory per fiscal year), conducted by such inventory takers and following such methodology as is consistent with the immediately preceding inventory or as
otherwise may be satisfactory to the Co-Collateral Agents in their Permitted Discretion. The Co-Collateral Agents, at the expense of the Loan Parties, may participate in and/or observe each scheduled physical count of Inventory which is undertaken
on behalf of any Loan Party. The Loan Parties, within five (5) days following the completion of any such inventory, shall provide the Co-Collateral Agents with a reconciliation of the results of such inventory (as well as of any other physical
inventory or cycle counts undertaken by a Loan Party) and shall post such results to the Loan Parties’ stock ledgers and general ledgers, as applicable. 







 (p) Letters of Credit. In the event that the Loan Parties request that any Letter of
Credit have an expiry after the Extended Termination Date and the Issuing Lenders in their discretion, issue such Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall on or before the date that is (10) Business Days prior to the Extended Termination Date,
deposit in a cash collateral account of the Co-Collateral Agents, an amount equal to 105% of the L/C Obligations with respect to any such Letter of Credit. 

SECTION 6.02. Negative Covenants. So long as any Advance or other Obligation (other than contingent indemnification obligations for
which no claim shall have then been asserted) shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding (unless the same has been cash collateralized in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such
Letters of Credit and all other Reimbursement Obligations or back-to-back letters of credit from an issuer and on terms acceptable to the Issuing Lender have been provided in respect of such Letters of Credit) or any Lender shall have any Commitment
hereunder, each of Holdings and the Borrowers will not, and will not permit any of their Subsidiaries to: 
 (a) Liens, Etc. Create

thereby, 
 (iv) to the extent any Liens permitted by clause (ii) above are terminated (and not replaced, extended or
renewed in accordance with clause (iii) above), Liens not otherwise permitted by clause (iii) above securing Debt in an amount up to the amount of Debt secured by such terminated Liens; provided that (A) any such Lien (and the
Debt secured thereby) shall be incurred no later than ninety (90) days after the termination of the Lien permitted by clause (ii) above, and (B) any such Lien shall be granted on the same property (and on any additions to such
property or any property taken by the Loan Parties in replacement or substitution for such property) as the terminated Lien,

the holder of such Lien shall have entered into an intercreditor agreement substantially in the form of the Existing Intercreditor Agreement, or such other form as the Co-Collateral Agents may reasonably agree, (3) if the Debt secured by such
Liens is secured by both Collateral and by property and assets of any Loan Party which do not constitute Collateral, the Co-Collateral Agents shall have obtained a Lien on such property and assets that do not otherwise constitute Collateral to
secure the Obligations, subordinate to the Lien of the holder of such Debt pursuant to an intercreditor agreement substantially in the form of 







 
Exhibit F hereto, or such other form as the Co-Collateral Agents may reasonably agree, and (4) the documentation granting such Lien shall be in form and substance reasonably

(iii) Prepay any Debt (without utilizing proceeds of Advances) except: 

(A) Prepayments of Debt solely with Net Proceeds of Dispositions permitted pursuant to clause (g)(iii) of the definition of

 (m) Existing Debt. Permit, or amend the documentation governing any Debt existing as of the Second Amendment Effective Date to
permit, the maturity date of such existing Debt to be shortened, the amortization of any such existing Debt to be increased or accelerated or the addition of or amendment to any new or existing mandatory repayment or prepayment provisions with
respect to such Debt that would give rise to payment of such Debt earlier than provided for by the applicable agreements as in effect on the Second Amendment Effective Date; provided that this Section 6.02(m) shall not apply to any Debt owed to
Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries (other than Debt owed by a Loan Party to a Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party). 
 (n)

(j) The guarantee contained in Section 2 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force and

 then, and in any such event, the Agent may, or, at the request of the Required Lenders shall, take
any or all of the following actions upon notice to the Borrowers: (i) declare the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate; and (ii) declare the Advances, the Term Loan,
the 2016 Term Loan, the 2018 FILO Loan, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of the L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then
outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Advances, the Term Loan, the 2016 Term Loan, the 2018 FILO Loan, all such interest and all such amounts shall
become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers; provided, however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry
of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the United States Bankruptcy Code, (A) the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall automatically be terminated and (B) the Advances, the Term Loan, the 2016 Term Loan,
the 2018 FILO Loan, all such interest and all such amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers. With
respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph or for which the outstanding amount of any drawing under any Letters of Credit (including
any taxes, fees, charges and other costs and expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection therewith) have not then been fully reimbursed or discharged, the Borrowers shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the
Co-Collateral Agents, an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit and all other Reimbursement Obligations. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Agent to the
payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit and the other Reimbursement Obligations, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon and all Reimbursement Obligations fully
reimbursed or discharged, 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 (or such other
Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). 
 It is understood and agreed that if the 2016 Term Loans are accelerated pursuant to this
Section 7.01 for any reason, including without limitation because of the commencement of any insolvency proceeding or other proceeding pursuant to any debtor relief laws, the premium payable pursuant to Section 2.05(b) (the
“2016 Term Loan Prepayment Premium”) determined as of the date of acceleration will also be due and payable as though the 2016 







 
Term Loans were voluntarily prepaid as of such date and shall constitute part of the Obligations in respect of the 2016 Term Loans, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of
ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each 2016 Term Lender’s lost profits as a result thereof. Any 2016 Term Loan Prepayment Premium payable in accordance with the immediately
preceding sentence shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each 2016 Term Lender as the result of the early termination and the Loan Parties agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The 2016 Term
Loan Prepayment Premium shall also be payable in the event the 2016 Term Loans are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding or otherwise) or deed in lieu of foreclosure. EACH LOAN PARTY EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE
PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION INCLUDING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY ACCELERATION OF THE 2016
TERM LOANS PURSUANT TO ANY INSOLVENCY PROCEEDING OR OTHER PROCEEDING PURSUANT TO ANY DEBTOR RELIEF LAWS. Each Loan Party expressly agrees that: (A) the 2016 Term Loan Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length
transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the 2016 Term Loan Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a
course of conduct between 2016 Term Lenders and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the 2016 Term Loan Prepayment Premium; and (D) the Loan Parties shall be estopped hereafter from
claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Each Loan Party expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the 2016 Term Loan Prepayment Premium to the 2016 Term Lenders as herein described is a material inducement for the 2016 Term
Lenders to provide the 2016 Term Commitment and provide the 2016 Term Loans. 
 It is understood and agreed that if the 2018 FILO Loans are accelerated
pursuant to this Section 7.01 for any reason, including without limitation because of the commencement of any insolvency proceeding or other proceeding pursuant to any debtor relief laws (including the acceleration of claims by operation of
law), the premium payable pursuant to Section 2.05(c) (the “2018 FILO Loan Prepayment Premium”) determined as of the date of acceleration will also be due and payable as though the 2018 FILO Loans were voluntarily repaid as of such
date and shall constitute part of the Obligations in respect of the 2018 FILO Loans, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each
2018 FILO Lender’s lost profits as a result thereof. Any 2018 FILO Loan Prepayment Premium payable in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each 2018 FILO Lender as the
result of the early termination and the Loan Parties agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The 2018 FILO Loan Prepayment Premium shall also be payable in the event the 2018 FILO Loans are satisfied or released by
foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding or otherwise) or deed in lieu of foreclosure. EACH LOAN PARTY EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING
PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION INCLUDING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY ACCELERATION OF THE 2018 FILO LOANS PURSUANT TO ANY INSOLVENCY PROCEEDING OR OTHER PROCEEDING PURSUANT TO ANY DEBTOR RELIEF LAWS. Each Loan
Party expressly agrees that: (A) the 2018 FILO Loan Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the 2018 FILO Loan
Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between 2018 FILO Lenders and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this
transaction for such agreement to pay the 2018 FILO Loan Prepayment Premium; and (D) the Loan Parties shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Each Loan Party expressly acknowledges that its
agreement to pay the 2018 FILO Loan Prepayment Premium to the 2018 FILO Lenders as herein described is a material inducement for the 2018 FILO Lenders to provide the 2018 FILO Commitment and provide the 2018 FILO Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this paragraph, payment of the 2018 FILO Loan Prepayment Premium shall be subject to the proviso to clause fifteenth of Section 6.4 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

SECTION 8.01. Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints (i) the Bank as Agent, and (ii) the Bank
and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as Co-Collateral Agents, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents, in such capacity, to take such action on its
behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents, as applicable, by the terms of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. For clarity, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, no consent of the Lenders shall be
required to amend this Agreement or the Loan Documents to (i) cause additional assets to become Collateral or to add additional Subsidiaries as guarantors of the Obligations, or (ii) implement the provisions of Sections 2.18 or 8.12, and
the Agent and the Loan Parties shall be entitled to execute any and all amendments necessary or desirable to accomplish any of the foregoing and such amendments shall be binding on the other parties hereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, neither the Agent nor the Co-Collateral Agents shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, 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 Agent or the Co-Collateral Agents.

 SECTION 8.02. Delegation of Duties. Each of the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents 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. Neither the Agent nor the Co-Collateral Agents shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

“Agents” shall mean the collective reference to the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents and any other Lender designated as an “Agent” for purposes of this Agreement, including the Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and the
Co-Documentation Agents) nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, 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 non-appealable 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 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 that is 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. 
 SECTION 8.04. Reliance by Agent. The Agent and Co-Collateral Agents
shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation
believed by them 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 Holdings or the Borrowers), independent accountants and other
experts selected by the Agent. The 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 Agent. The Agent and
Co-Collateral Agents shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless they shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this
Agreement, the Supermajority Lenders or all Lenders) as they deem appropriate 







 
or they shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by them by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action. The 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 Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, the
Supermajority Lenders or 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 Advances, the Term Loan and, the 2016 Term
Loan and the 2018 FILO Loan. 
 SECTION 8.05. Notice of Default. The Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents shall not be deemed to
have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Agent or the applicable Co-Collateral Agent has received notice from a Lender, Holdings or a Borrower 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 Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents shall take such action
with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, the Supermajority Lenders or all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Agent or the
Co-Collateral Agents shall have received such directions, the Agent, in consultation with the Co-Collateral Agents, 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. 
 SECTION 8.06. Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders.
Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact
or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent or any Co-Collateral 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 the Agent or any Co-Collateral Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any Co-Collateral Agent
or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and 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 Advances, the Term Loan and, the 2016 Term Loan and the 2018 FILO Loan hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it
will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any Co-Collateral 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 Agent or the Co-Collateral Agents hereunder, the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents
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 Agent or any Co-Collateral Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 
 SECTION 8.07. Reports
and Financial Statements. By signing this Agreement, each Lender: 
 (a) agrees to furnish the Agent after the occurrence and during the
continuance of a Cash Dominion Event (and thereafter at such frequency as the Agent may reasonably request) with a summary of all Bank Products and Cash Management Services provided by, and amounts due or to become due on account thereof to, such
Lender. In connection with any distributions to be made hereunder, the Agent shall be entitled to assume that no amounts are due to any Lender on account of any such Bank Products or Cash Management Services unless the Agent has received written
notice thereof from such Lender; 
 (b) is deemed to have requested that the Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after they become
available, copies of all financial statements and reports required to be delivered by the Loan Parties hereunder and all commercial finance examinations and appraisals of the Collateral received by the Co-Collateral Agents (collectively, the
“Reports”) (which the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents agree to so deliver); 







 (c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents make no
representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the Reports, and shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; 
 (d)
expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the
Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel; 

(e) agrees to keep all Reports confidential in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; and 

(f) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold the Agent,
the Co-Collateral Agents and any such other Lender or Person preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any credit
extensions that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit or Swingline Advance, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a Loan or Loans; and
(ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents and any such other Lender or Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other
amounts (including reasonable attorney costs) incurred by the Agent, Co-Collateral Agents and any such other Lender or Person preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through
the indemnifying Lender. 
 SECTION 8.08. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent and each Co-Collateral Agent in
its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by Holdings or the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Holdings or the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Shares in effect on the date on which
indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Revolving Commitments of any Lender shall have terminated and the Advances, the Term Loan and, the 2016 Term Loan
and the 2018 FILO Loan shall have been paid in full, in accordance with such Pro Rata Shares 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 whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Advances, the Term Loan and, the 2016 Term Loan and the 2018 FILO Loan) be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the 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 under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no 2015 Non-Extending Lender shall be obligated to indemnify the Agent or any Co-Collateral Agent for any liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which relate to matters subsequent to the termination of such 2015 Non-Extending Lender’s Commitment and repayment of
all Obligations to such 2015 Non-Extending Lender (for clarity, such 2015 Non-Extending Lenders shall remain liable for any claims which relate to a period during which they were a “Lender” hereunder, even if first asserted after the
termination of such 2015 Non-Extending Lender’s Revolving Commitment and repayment of all Obligations to such 2015 Non-Extending Lender), provided further 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 non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the Agent’s or
any Co-Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Advances, the Term Loan, the 2016 Term Loan, the 2018 FILO Loan and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 SECTION 8.09. 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 Advances 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. 







 SECTION 8.10. Successor Agent. 

(a) The Agent may resign as Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. If the Agent shall resign as Agent under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to
approval by the Borrowers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent, and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent
effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or
any holders of the Advances, Term Loan or, 2016 Term Loan or 2018 FILO Loan. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation,
the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as
provided for above. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. 
 (b) Any Co-Collateral Agent may resign as Co-Collateral Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. The
rights, duties and responsibilities of the Co-Collateral Agents hereunder are specific to each of Bank of America, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and upon (i) the resignation of any such Person as a Co-Collateral Agent
hereunder, or (ii) except as otherwise agreed by the Borrowers and the Agent (whose agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld), the assignment of all of the rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Revolving
Commitment, FILO Commitment, the Advances, the Term Loan, the 2016 Term Loan, the 2018 FILO Loan and other amounts owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it by any such Person, then such rights, duties and responsibilities of such Person
as a Co-Collateral Agent shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect; provided that the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to such Person’s benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was Co-Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, no additional Co-Collateral Agents shall be appointed hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Borrowers.

 SECTION 8.11. Co-Documentation Agents and Syndication Agent; Bank Product and Cash Management Services Providers. (a) Neither
the Co-Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent nor any other Lender designated as an “Agent” for purposes of this Agreement (other than the Bank in its capacity as Agent and Co-Collateral Agent, and Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association in its capacity as Co-Collateral Agent) shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder in its capacity as such. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no provider or holder of any Bank Products or Cash Management Services shall have any voting or approval rights hereunder (or be deemed a Lender) solely by virtue
of its status as the provider or holder of such agreements or products or the Obligations owing thereunder, nor shall the consent of any such provider or holder be required (other than in their capacities as Lenders, to the extent applicable) for
any matter hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, including as to any matter relating to the Collateral or the release of Collateral or any Loan Party. 

SECTION 8.12. Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Adjustments . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender,
then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 
 (i)
Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”,
“Supermajority Lenders” and this Section 8.12. 







 (ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest,
fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.05
shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such
Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender; fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or
Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Extension of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and
the Borrowers, 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 Extensions of Credit under this Agreement and (y) Cash
Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Non-Defaulting Lenders,
the Issuing Lenders or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Lenders or the Swingline Lender 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 Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the
Borrowers 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 Extension of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Advances, Term Loans or, 2016
Term Loans or 2018 FILO Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Extensions of Credit
owed to all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances, Term Loans, 2016 Term Loans, 2018 FILO Loans and funded and
unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to Section 2.16. 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 8.12 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably
consents hereto. 
 (iii) Certain Fees. 

(a) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under Section 2.05 for any period during which that Lender is a
Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 

(b) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit fees pursuant to Section 3.03 for any period during which that
Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Revolving Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral. 

(c) With respect to any fee payable under Section 2.05 or any Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting
Lender pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above, the Borrowers shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s
participation in Letters of Credit or 







 
Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Issuing Lenders and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the
amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Lender’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount
of any such fee. 
 (iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such
Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting
Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrowers shall have otherwise notified the Agent at such time,
the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate outstanding amount of Obligations of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed
such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender,
including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (a)(iv) above cannot, or
can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to them hereunder or under applicable Law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lenders’ Fronting
Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.01(b) . 

(b) Consents. If a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the other
Credit Parties, the Loan Parties or any other party at law or in equity, and not in limitation thereof, except as set forth in the last sentence hereof, such Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in decision-making rights related to the
Obligations in respect of Required Lender and Supermajority Lender votes, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal. Notwithstanding anything else provided herein, any amendment,
waiver determination, consent or notification under Section 9.01 that would (i) increase or extend the term of the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of the Advances, the Term Loan
or, the 2016 Term Loan or the 2018 FILO Loan made by such Defaulting Lender, (iii) alter the terms and conditions of this sentence or (iv) otherwise disproportionately affect a Defaulting Lender, will require the
consent of such Defaulting Lender. 
 (c) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers, the Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing
Lenders agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include
arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause
the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Commitment Percentages (without giving effect to
Section 2.16), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a
Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

expenses of one counsel for the Agent, and one counsel for the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of or protection rights under this

 (b) Holdings and the Borrowers jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the
Agent, each Co-Collateral Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender and each of their Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims,
damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including in
connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) this Agreement, the Existing Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein
or the actual or proposed use of the Letters of Credit or the proceeds of the Advances, and (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of Holdings, the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or any Environmental
Action relating in any way to Holdings, the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 9.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective
whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by Holdings, any Borrower, its directors, equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party
thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Holdings and the Borrowers also agree not to assert any claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against the Agent, any Co-Collateral Agent, any
Lender, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any of the transactions
contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the Letters of Credit or the proceeds of the Advances, the Term Loan or, 2016 Term Loan or 2018 FILO Loan. 

(c) If (i) any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made by any Borrower to or for the account of a
Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.09(d) or (e), 2.11 or 2.13, acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 7.01 or
for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07 as a result of a demand
by any Borrower pursuant to Section 9.07(a), or (ii) any Borrower fails to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Eurodollar Rate Advance on the date or in the amount notified by any Borrower; the applicable Borrower shall, promptly after
notice by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used to quantify such amount (with a copy of such notice to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any
additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of
deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 9.04(c), each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar
Rate Advance made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Advance by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Advance was in fact so
funded. 
 (d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Holdings or any Borrower hereunder, the agreements and
obligations of Holdings and the Borrowers contained in Sections 2.12, 2.15 and 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. 

SECTION 9.05. Right of Set-off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the
making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 7.01 to authorize the Agent to declare the Extensions of Credit due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.01, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time
owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the 







 
account of Holdings or any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of Holdings and the Loan Parties now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the
Extensions of Credit of such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Holdings or the applicable Loan Party (with a copy to the Agent) after
any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliate under this Section are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its Affiliate may have. 
 SECTION 9.06. Binding Effect;
Effectiveness. When this Agreement has been executed by Holdings, the Borrowers, the Agent and the Co-Collateral Agents, and the Lenders, this Agreement shall thereafter be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Holdings, the Borrowers, the
Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents, each Issuing Lender, each Lender and their respective successors and assigns; provided, that, except with respect to Sections 9.07 and 9.08, this Agreement shall only become effective upon satisfaction of the
conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.01 and none of the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation provisions in respect of Term Loans, 2016 Term Loans, 2018 FILO Loans, Advances and Letters of Credit to be made by
or issued by any Lender, and in respect of any covenant, fee, indemnity, default, and expense reimbursement made by any Loan Party or for which any Loan Party is liable hereunder, shall become effective, nor shall any representation herein be deemed
to be made, until the satisfaction of such conditions. 
 SECTION 9.07. Assignments and Participations. (a) Each Lender may,
upon notice to the Borrowers and the Agent and with the consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of the Agent, and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers (which consent shall be deemed given by the
Borrowers if the Borrowers have not responded to a request for such consent within ten (10) Business Days), assign to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Revolving Commitment, the Advances, the Term Loan, the 2016 Term Loan, the 2018 FILO Loan and other amounts owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) no assignment of a Revolving Commitment
may be made by a 2015 Extending Lender to a 2015 Non-Extending Lender unless such 2015 Non-Extending Lender shall agree to become a 2015 Extending Lender for purposes of the assigned rights and obligations pursuant to documentation acceptable to the
Agent and the Borrowers; (ii) any assignment of a Revolving Commitment by a 2015 Non-Extending Lender to a 2015 Extending Lender shall, without further action, result in the Revolving Commitments so assigned being extended to the Extended
Termination Date and otherwise entitle such Revolving Lender to the rights and obligations of Revolving Commitments of 2015 Extending Lenders hereunder (including the applicable fee and interest rates), (iii) each such assignment with respect
to any Class of rights and obligations shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Class, (iv) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately
prior to such assignment, was a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (xw) the amount of the Revolving Commitment of the
assigning Revolving Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 (unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, in which case not less than $5,000,000) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof unless the Borrowers and the Agent otherwise agree, (yx) the amount of the Term Loan of the assigning
Term Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof (or, if less, the entire outstanding amount of the Term Loan held by such Term Lender) unless the Borrowers and the Agent otherwise agree, and (zy) the amount of the 2016 Term Loan of the assigning
2016 Term Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof (or, if less, the entire outstanding amount of the 2016 Term Loan held by such 2016 Term Lender) unless the Borrowers and the Agent otherwise agree, and (y) the amount of the 2018 FILO Loan of the assigning 2018 FILO Lender being
assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, if less,
the entire outstanding amount of the 2018 FILO Loan held by such 2018 FILO Lender) unless the Borrowers and the Agent otherwise agree, (v) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (vi) the parties to each such assignment
shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, and the parties to such 







 
assignment (other than the Borrowers and the Agent) shall deliver together therewith any Note subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (except no such fee shall
be payable for assignments to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund), and (vii) any Lender may, without the approval of the Borrowers, but with notice to the Borrowers, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations to
any of its Affiliates or to another Lender (provided no assignment of Revolving Commitments or any Revolving Advances or other Revolving Extensions of Credit may be made by a Revolving Lender to a Term Lender or, a 2016 Term
Lender or a 2018 FILO Lender pursuant to this clause unless such Term Lender or, 2016 Term Lender or 2018 FILO Lender, as applicable, is already also a Revolving Lender hereunder). Upon such execution, delivery,
acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it
pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Section 2.12, 2.15 and 9.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this
Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). 

(b) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective
unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be
outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or sub-participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the
Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender
hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Revolving Commitment Percentage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of
such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 
 (c) By executing
and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance,
such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the execution,
legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or
warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Loan Parties or the performance or observance by the Borrowers of any of their obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished
pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate
to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender 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 decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee;
(vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof and
thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required
to be performed by it as a Lender. 







 (d) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an
assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit B
hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers. 

(e) The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and
accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Revolving Commitment of, and principal amount of the Advances and L/C Obligations owing to, each Revolving Lender from time to time, the principal
amount of the Term Loan owing to each Term Lender from time to time, and the principal amount of the 2016 Term Loan owing to each 2016 Term Lender from time to time, and the principal amount of the 2018 FILO Loan owing to each
2018 FILO Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(f) Each Lender may, without the consent of the Agent or any Loan Party, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other
than the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment, the Advances owing to it, the portion of the Term Loan owing to it,
the portion of the 2016 Term Loan owing to it, the portion of the 2018 FILO Loan owing to it, and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including its
Revolving Commitment to the Borrowers and its obligations to the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lender hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrowers, the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents 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 and (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Loan
Document, or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would require the affirmative vote of the Lender from which it purchased its participation pursuant to Section 9.01(a).

 (g) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this
Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to Holdings, the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided
that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Borrower Information relating to Holdings, the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries received by it from
such Lender in accordance with Section 9.08. 
 (h) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at
any time (i) create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including the Advances owing to it, the portion of the Term Loan owing to it, the portion of the 2016 Term Loan owing to it, the portion of the
2018 FILO Loan owing to it and any Notes held by it), including, without limitation, in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and (ii) assign to one or more
special purpose funding vehicles (each, an “SPV”) all or any portion of its funded Advances (without the corresponding Revolving Commitment), without the consent of any Person or the payment of a fee, by execution of a written
assignment agreement in a form agreed to by such Lender and such SPV, and may grant any such SPV the option, in such SPV’s sole discretion, to provide the Borrowers all or any part of any Advances that such Lender would otherwise be obligated
to make pursuant to this Agreement. Such SPVs shall have all the rights which a Revolving Lender making or holding such Advances would have under this Agreement, but no obligations; provided, that no SPV shall be entitled to compensation
pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.15 in excess of that to which the applicable Revolving Lender would otherwise have been entitled. The Lender shall remain liable for all its original obligations under this Agreement, including its Revolving
Commitment (although the unused portion thereof shall be reduced by the principal amount of any Advances held by an SPV). Notwithstanding such assignment, the Agent and Borrowers may deliver notices to the Lender (as agent for the SPV) and not
separately to 







 
the SPV unless the Agent and Borrowers are requested in writing by the SPV (or its agent) to deliver such notices separately to it. The Borrowers shall, at the request of any Revolving
Lender, execute and deliver to such Person as such Revolving Lender may designate, a Note in the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment to evidence the Advances of such Revolving Lender and related SPV. 

(i) The Borrowers, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agree to issue Notes to any Lender to facilitate transactions of
the type described in paragraph (g) above. 
 (j) Neither Holdings nor any Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder
or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each of the Lenders (except, in the case of SRAC, pursuant to Section 6.01(d)). 

SECTION 9.08. Confidentiality. Neither the Agent, any Co-Collateral Agent, any Issuing Lender, nor any Lender may disclose to any
Person any confidential, proprietary or non-public information of Holdings or the Borrowers furnished to the Agent or the Lenders by Holdings or the Borrowers (such information being referred to collectively herein as the “Borrower
Information”), except that each of the Agent, each of the Co-Collateral Agents, each of the Issuing Lenders and each of the Lenders may disclose Borrower Information (i) to its and its Affiliates’ employees, officers, directors,
agents and advisors to whom disclosure is required to enable the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents, the Issuing Lenders or such Lender to perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with the
administration or monitoring of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by the Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents, Issuing Lenders, or such Lender (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Borrower Information and instructed to keep such Borrower Information confidential on substantially the same terms as provided herein), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (iii) to the
extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any
suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this
Section 9.08, to any assignee or participant, or any prospective assignee or participant, (vii) to the extent such Borrower Information (A) is or becomes generally available to the public on a non-confidential basis other than as a
result of a breach of this Section 9.08 by the Agent, any Co-Collateral Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, or (B) is or becomes available to the Agent, any Co-Collateral Agent or such Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source
other than Holdings, the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries and (viii) with the consent of the Borrowers. 
 SECTION 9.09.
Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof but including Section 5-1401 and 5-1402 of
the New York General Obligations Law.

relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may
be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Holdings and each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such
courts by the mailing thereof by any parties hereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to Holdings or such Borrower at its address specified pursuant to Section 9.02. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any
such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any
action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in the courts of any jurisdiction. 







 (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it
may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or
federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

SECTION 9.12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF HOLDINGS, THE BORROWERS, THE AGENT, THE CO-COLLATERAL AGENTS, THE ISSUING LENDERS AND THE
LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE ACTIONS OF THE
AGENT, THE CO-COLLATERAL AGENTS, THE ISSUING LENDERS OR ANY LENDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF. 

SECTION 9.13. Release of Collateral or Guarantee Obligation. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in
any other Loan Document, the Co-Collateral Agents are hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender (without requirement of consent of or notice to any Lender) to take, and hereby agree to take, any action requested by the Borrowers 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 (including, without limitation, any Permitted Disposition) or that has been consented
to in accordance with Section 9.01; provided that the guarantee obligations of Sears may not be released without the consent of the Required Lenders, or (ii) under the circumstances described in paragraph (b) below. 

(b) At such time as the Advances, the Term Loan, the 2016 Term Loan, the 2018 FILO Loan, the Reimbursement Obligations and all other
Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, the Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding (or any outstanding Letters of Credit shall have been cash collateralized in an amount equal to 105% of the

Letters of Credit), the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, and the Security Documents and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Co-Collateral Agents and
each Loan Party under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person. 

SECTION 9.14. PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the PATRIOT Act and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any
Lender) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of such Borrower and
other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify such Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. Each Borrower hereby agrees to provide such information promptly upon the request of any Lender or the Agent.

 SECTION 9.15. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of Holdings, the Borrowers, the
Agent, the Co-Collateral Agents and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Agent, any Co-Collateral Agent or any Lender relative to subject
matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holdings and the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the provisions of the GE Commitment Letter survive the
execution hereof to the extent set forth herein and therein. 
 SECTION 9.16. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 2.12 or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, if any Lender does not consent
(a “Non-Consenting Lender”) to 







 
a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of each Lender and that has been approved by the Required Lenders or any Lender is a
Defaulting Lender, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and
consents required by, Section 9.07), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender
accepts such assignment), provided that: 
 (a) the Borrowers shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee specified in
Section 9.07; 
 (b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, its
ratable share of the Term Loan and its ratable share of the 2016 Term Loan, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding
principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts); 
 (c) in the case of any such assignment
resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 

(d) with respect to the replacement of any Non-Consenting Lender, such amendment, waiver or consent can be effected as a result of such
assignment (together with all other assignments required by the Agent to be made pursuant to this paragraph); and 
 (e) such assignment does
not conflict with applicable laws. 
 A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a
result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

SECTION 9.17. No Advisory or Fiduciary Capacity. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, the Loan
Parties each acknowledge and agree that: (i) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of
any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Loan Parties, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other hand, and each of the Loan Parties is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands
and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such
transaction, the each Credit Party is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other
Person; (iii) none of the Credit Parties has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Loan Parties with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto,
including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether any of the Credit Parties has advised or is currently advising any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates on other
matters) and none of the Credit Parties has any obligation to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents;
(iv) the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Credit Parties has any
obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Credit Parties have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of
the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and each of the Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has
deemed appropriate. Each of the Loan Parties hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against each of the Credit Parties with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.








 SECTION 9.18. Existing Credit Agreement Amended and Restated. Upon satisfaction of the
conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement, (a) this Agreement shall amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety, (b) the rights and obligations of the parties under the Existing Credit Agreement shall
be subsumed within and be governed by this Agreement; provided, however, that Holdings and the Borrowers hereby agree that (i) each Existing Letter of Credit outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement on July 21, 2015 shall be a
Letter of Credit hereunder, and (ii) all obligations and other liabilities of the Loan Parties under the Existing Credit Agreement shall remain outstanding, shall constitute continuing Obligations secured by the Collateral, and this Agreement
shall not be deemed to evidence or result in a novation or repayment and reborrowing of such obligations and other liabilities. 
 SECTION
9.19. Keepwell. Each Loan Party that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor at the time the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or the grant of a security interest under the Loan Documents, in each case, by any Specified Loan Party becomes effective
with respect to any Swap Obligation, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each Specified Loan Party with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by
such Specified Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering
such Qualified ECP Guarantor’s obligations and undertakings under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement voidable under applicable Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations
and undertakings of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been paid and performed in full. Each Loan Party intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be
deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Specified Loan Party for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

statements referred to above are not delivered within the time periods specified above, then, until such financial statements are delivered, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as at the end of the fiscal period that would have been covered thereby
shall for the purposes of this definition be deemed to be greater than 3.0 to 1.0. 
 If any financial statements are at any time restated or otherwise
revised (including as a result of an audit) or if the information set forth in any financial statement otherwise proves to be false or incorrect such that the Applicable Margin would have been higher than was otherwise in effect during any period,
without constituting a waiver of any Default or Event of Default arising as a result thereof, interest payable under this Agreement, whether previously paid or not, shall be immediately recalculated at such higher rate for any applicable periods and
shall be due and payable on demand.
