(xix)Section 1.10 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows
“Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on Eurodollar Rate Loans is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022 or at some point thereafter, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Rate Loans for one or more currencies available for borrowing hereunder.  In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate.  Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 3.08 provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 3.08, of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Rate Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 3.08, whether upon the occurrence of a 
10






Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 3.08, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Eurodollar Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.”
(xx)Section 2.01(a) of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following sentence after the last sentence thereof:
“From and after the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, the 2021 Refinancing Term Loans shall be deemed to be “Term Loans” and “Term B Loans” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.”
(xxi)Section 2.05(b)(ix) of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(ix)    If on or before the date that is 6 months after the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, there occurs any (i) prepayment or repayment of Term B Loans with the proceeds of, or any conversion of such Term B Loans into, any new debt financing or any replacement debt financing, in either case, bearing interest at an “effective” interest rate that is less than the “effective” interest rate applicable to the Term B Loans (as such comparative rates are determined by the Administrative Agent) or (ii) amendment to the terms of the Term B Loans which reduces the “effective” interest rate applicable to the Term B Loans (as such comparative rates are determined by the Administrative Agent) (in each case, with original issue discount and upfront fees, which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of original issue discount, being equated to interest margins in a manner consistent with generally accepted financial practice based on an assumed four-year life to maturity) (any such transaction or event described in clauses (i) or (ii) above, a “Repricing Event”), then, simultaneously with the consummation of such Repricing Event, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Term B Lenders, (I) in the case of clause (i) above, an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term B Loans so repriced or refinanced in such Repricing Event and (II) in the case of clause (ii) above, an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term B Loans that are the subject of such Repricing Event outstanding immediately prior to such amendment (including to each Term B Lender that refuses to consent to such amendment (which shall include each Term B Lender that refuses to consent to an amendment if such Term B Lender is required to make a mandatory assignment pursuant to Section 10.13 in connection therewith)).
(xxii)Section 3.08 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“Benchmark Replacement Setting.
(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an 
11






Early  Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (i) or (ii) of the definition of  “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (iii) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as  the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders of each Class. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this paragraph shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to determine that a Term SOFR Transition Event has occurred and may do so in its sole discretion.
 (b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  In connection with the implementation of a  Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark  Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary  herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 
(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (d) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark  Unavailability 
12






Period.  Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 3.08 including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.08.
(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or the LIBO Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 
(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, (x) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in U.S. Dollars (in an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the amount requested to be borrowed or converted in the Alternative Currency). During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.”
(xxiii)Section 10.22 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
13






Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may     be subject to Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(b)the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i)a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii)a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
(iii)the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
4.Representations and Warranties.
To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the 2021 Refinancing Term Lenders) to enter into this Amendment and to make the 2021 Refinancing Term Loans, each Loan Party represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the 2021 Refinancing Term Lenders) as of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date that the following statements are true and correct in all material respects:
(a)Corporate Power and Authority.  Each Loan Party has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Amendment and perform its obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement.
(b)Due Authorization; No Contravention.

(d)Binding Effect.  This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is a party hereto.

(e)Incorporation of Representations and Warranties from Credit Agreement.  The representations and warranties contained in Article 5 of the Amended Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Document are and will be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Amendment Effective Date to the same extent as though made on and as of that date, except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date, in each case after giving effect to this Amendment; provided that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct (after giving effect to any qualification therein) in all respects.
