    Agreement; and

   

  B.       The Lenders and the Issuing Banks are willing to make available to the Borrower such credit upon the terms and subject to the conditions
    and requirements set forth herein;

   

  C.       NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as
    follows:

   

  ARTICLE I

    DEFINITIONS

   

  Section 1.01         Defined Terms. Unless otherwise
    defined herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings, which meanings shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms:

   

  “ABR”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, bear interest
    at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate.

   

  “Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction” means any flag jurisdiction (a) listed on Schedule 6.14 or (b) otherwise approved by the
    Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

   

  “Additional Vessel Date” has the meaning assigned to it in Section 5.12(b)(iii).

   

  “Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR” means an interest rate per annum equal to (a) the Daily Simple SOFR, plus (b) 0.10%; provided
    that if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR Rate as so determined would be less than the Floor, such rate shall be deemed to be equal to the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement.

   

  “Adjusted Term SOFR Rate” means, for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum equal to (a) the Term SOFR Rate for such
    Interest Period, plus (b) 0.10%; provided that if the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate as so determined would be less than the Floor, such rate shall be deemed to be equal to the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement.

   

  “Administrative Agent” means JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (or any of its designated branch offices or affiliates), in its capacity as
    administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder.

  “Affected Financial Institution” means (a) any EEA Financial Institution or (b) any UK Financial Institution.

  “Agreement” has the meaning specified in introductory paragraph hereof.

  “Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b)

    immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1%; provided that for the purpose of this definition, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for any day shall be based on the Term SOFR Reference Rate at approximately 5:00 a.m. Chicago time on such day
    (or any amended publication time for the Term SOFR Reference Rate, as specified by the CME Term SOFR Administrator in the Term SOFR Reference Rate methodology). Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or
    the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, respectively. If the Alternate Base Rate is being used as an alternate rate of
    interest pursuant to Section 2.15 (for the avoidance of doubt, only until the Benchmark Replacement has been determined pursuant to Section 2.15(b)), then the Alternate Base Rate shall be the greater of clauses (a) and (b)
    above and shall be determined without reference to clause (c) above. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Alternate Base Rate as determined pursuant to the foregoing would be less than 1.0%, such rate shall be deemed to be 1.0% for purposes of

    Commitment. If the Commitments have terminated or expired, the Applicable Percentages shall be determined based upon the Commitments most recently in effect, giving effect to any assignments and to any Lender’s status as a Defaulting Lender at the time
    of determination.

        	3.25%	2.25%

  If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of Parent or for any other reason, the Borrower or the
    Required Lenders determine that (a) the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (b) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in a higher
    Applicable Rate with respect to any Loan for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on written demand by the Administrative Agent
    (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent or any Lender), an amount equal to the excess of
    the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period (determined after taking into account any corresponding reduction in the amount of interest and fees for such period), if any, over the amount of interest and fees actually paid
    for such period.

    or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of

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

  (a)          Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing
    consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that
    the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

   

  (b)          Subject to Section 2.15, each Borrowing shall
    be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Term Benchmark Loans, as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided
    that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

   

  (c)          At the commencement of each Interest Period for any
    Term Benchmark Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $500,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an
    integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $500,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC
    Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e). Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of eight (8) Term Benchmark Borrowings outstanding.

  
    42

    
      
 

  

   

  (d)          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
    the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

   

  Section 2.03         Requests for Borrowings. To request
    a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by submitting a Borrowing Request (a) in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of
    the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of an ABR Borrowing to finance the
    reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e) may be given not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be signed by a
    Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each such Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

  (ii)         the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a

  (iv)        in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the
    initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and

   

  (v)         the location and number of the Borrower’s account to
    which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.07.

   

  If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to
    any requested Term Benchmark Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall

  (b)          Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Extension; Certain
      Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have
    been approved by the respective Issuing Bank) to an Issuing Bank selected by it and to the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension, but in any event no less than three (3) Business Days) a
    notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is

    or extend such Letter of Credit. In addition, as a condition to any such Letter of Credit issuance, the Borrower shall have (x) entered into a continuing agreement (or other letter of credit agreement) for the issuance of letters of credit and/or shall
    submit a letter of credit application, in each case, as required by the respective Issuing Bank and using such Issuing Bank’s standard form (each, a “Letter of Credit Agreement”) and (y) delivered to the applicable Issuing Bank all information
    and documentation reasonably requested by such Issuing Bank for purposes of compliance with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. In the event
    of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or extended
    only if (and upon issuance, amendment or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension (i) (x) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate undrawn
    amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank at such time plus (y) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of all LC Disbursements made by such Issuing Bank that have not yet been reimbursed by or on behalf of
    the Borrower at such time shall not exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment, (ii) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the total Letter of Credit Commitments, (iii) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments and (iv) no Lender’s Revolving
    Credit Exposure shall exceed its Commitment. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank with the consent of such Issuing Bank; provided that the Borrower shall not reduce the
    Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank if, after giving effect of such reduction, the conditions set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) above shall not be satisfied.

   

  An Issuing Bank shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

   

  (i)          any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental
    Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or require that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of
    letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated
    hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable on the Effective Date and that such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; or

   

  (ii)         the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate
    one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

  
    44

    
      
 

  

   

  (c)           Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall
    expire (or be subject to termination by notice from the applicable Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereof) at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one (1) year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in
    the case of any extension of the expiration date thereof, one (1) year after such extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided, that if the Borrower so requests, the relevant Issuing Bank
    shall agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit”); provided that (A) any such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit must permit such Issuing Bank to prevent any such renewal
    at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter
    of Credit is issued (and such Issuing Bank shall give such notice of non-renewal to the beneficiary if so directed by the Borrower) and (B) such Issuing Bank will not permit the renewal of any Letter of Credit that would result in the expiration date
    of such Letter of Credit being later than the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to Maturity Date. Unless otherwise notified in writing to the Borrower by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request
    to such Issuing Bank for any such renewal. Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Bank to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any
    time to an expiry date not later than the earlier of (x) one (1) year from the date of such renewal and (y) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided that the Issuing Bank shall not permit any such renewal if
    (i) the Issuing Bank has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.06 or otherwise), or (ii) it has received
    notice from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 are not then satisfied

   

  (d)          Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of
    Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from
    such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount (after converting, if necessary, such amount into Dollars using the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on such date)
    available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Issuing Bank, such
    Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement (after converting, if necessary, such amount into Dollars using the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on such date) made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as
    provided in Section 2.06(e), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason, including after the Maturity Date. Each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction
    whatsoever. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including
    any amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments.

   

  (e)           Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make
    any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day
    immediately following the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior
    to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice; provided that if such LC Disbursement is not less than $500,000, the
    Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount (after converting, if necessary, such amount into Dollars
    using the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on such date), to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due,
    the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall
    pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Applicable Percentage of the payment (after converting, if necessary, such amount into Dollars using the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on such date) then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as
    provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the respective
    Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment (after converting,
    if necessary, such amount into Dollars using the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on such date) to the respective Issuing Bank in Dollars or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank,
    then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not
    constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

  
    45

    
      
 

  

   

  (f)           Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s
    obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever
    and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to
    be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the respective Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not
    comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or
    provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their respective Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in
    connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or
    delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in
    translation or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the respective Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct
    damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure
    to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an
    Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties
    agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without
    responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

   

  (g)          Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank for
    any Letter of Credit shall, within the time allowed by applicable law or the specific terms of the Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit. Such
    Issuing Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or electronic mail) of such demand for payment if such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement
    thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

  
    46

    
      
 

  

   

  (h)          Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank for any
    Letter of Credit shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date
    such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the reimbursement is due and payable at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans and such interest shall be due and payable on the date when such reimbursement is payable; provided
    that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to Section 2.06(e), then Section 2.14(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of such Issuing Bank, except that
    interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.06(e) to reimburse such Issuing Bank for such LC Disbursement shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

   

  (i)            Replacement and Resignation of an Issuing Bank.

   

  (i)          An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by
    written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement
    shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.13(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Issuing Bank shall
    have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any
    previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the
    rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or extend or otherwise amend any existing Letter of
    Credit.

   

  (ii)         Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a
    successor Issuing Bank, any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such resigning Issuing Bank shall be replaced in
    accordance with Section 2.06(i)(i) above.

   

  (j)            Cash Collateralization.

   

  (i)           If any Event of Default shall occur and be
    continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC
    Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account or accounts with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders (the “Collateral
      Account”), an amount in cash equal to 105% of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such
    deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in Section 7.01(h) or (i). Such deposit shall be held by
    the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. In addition, and without limiting the foregoing or Section 2.06(c), if any LC Exposure remains outstanding after the
    expiration date specified in said Section 2.06(c), the Borrower shall immediately deposit into the Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to 105% of such LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

  
    47

    
      
 

  

   

  (ii)          The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive
    dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative
    Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in the Collateral Account. Moneys in the Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative
    Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, together with related fees, costs and customary processing charges, and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the
    reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied
    to satisfy other Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower
    within two (2) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

   

  (k)          Letters of Credit Issued for Account of
      Subsidiaries and Ventures. If after giving pro forma effect to the issuance of any Letter of Credit (assuming for purposes of this Section 2.06(k) that the issuance of such Letter of Credit constitutes an Investment in the
    applicable Unrestricted Subsidiary or Venture in an amount equal to the stated amount of such Letter of Credit), such Investment would be permitted under Section 6.04, Letters of Credit may be issued for the account of Unrestricted Subsidiaries
    and Ventures hereunder in respect of obligations (other than Indebtedness) of such Unrestricted Subsidiary or Venture arising in the ordinary course of business. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder supports any
    obligations of, or is for the account of, a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary or Venture, or states that a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary or Venture is the “account party,” “applicant,” “customer,” “instructing
    party,” or the like of or for such Letter of Credit, and without derogating from any rights of the applicable Issuing Bank (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Restricted Subsidiary or Unrestricted Subsidiary or
    Venture in respect of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for such Letter of Credit (including to reimburse any and all drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit
    had been issued solely for the account of the Borrower and (ii) irrevocably waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such Restricted Subsidiary or Unrestricted
    Subsidiary or Venture in respect of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for its Ventures, Restricted Subsidiaries and Unrestricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and
    that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Ventures, Restricted Subsidiaries and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

   

  (l)           Existing Letters of Credit. On the Effective
    Date, each Existing Letter of Credit will be deemed issued under this Agreement without need for any request by the Borrower.

   

  Section 2.07          Funding of Borrowings.

   

  (a)           Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it
    hereunder on the proposed date thereof solely by wire transfer of immediately available funds, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders.
    Except in respect of the provisions of this Agreement covering the reimbursement of Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the funds so received in the aforesaid account of the
    Administrative Agent to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC
    Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.

  
    48

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
    notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share
    available on such date in accordance with Section 2.07(a) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing
    available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such
    amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
    industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such
    Borrowing.

   

  Section 2.08          Interest Elections.

   

  (a)          Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type
    specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type
    or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.08. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected
    Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

   

  (b)          To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.08,
    the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the
    effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.

   

  (c)           Each Interest Election Request shall be substantially
    in the form of Exhibit C and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

   

  (i)          the Borrowing to which such Interest Election
    Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii)
    and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

   

  (ii)         the effective date of the election made pursuant to
    such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

   

  (iii)        whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR
    Borrowing or a Term Benchmark Borrowing; and

  
    49

    
      
 

  

   

  (iv)        if the resulting Borrowing is a Term Benchmark
    Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

   

  If any such Interest Election Request requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed
    to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

   

  (d)          Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election
    Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

   

  (e)           If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest
    Election Request with respect to a Term Benchmark Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be deemed to have
    an Interest Period that is one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as
    an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Term Benchmark Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period
    applicable thereto.

   

  Section 2.09         Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

   

  (a)           Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall
    terminate on the Maturity Date.

   

  (b)          The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time
    to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the
    Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.12, any Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed its Commitment.

   

  (c)          The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of
    any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under Section 2.09(b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following
    receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09(c) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the
    Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the
    specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.09(c) shall be permanent and may not be reinstated. Each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section
      2.09(c) shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.

   

  (d)          In connection with any mandatory prepayment pursuant
    to Section 2.12(c) that, when taken together with all other mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 2.12(c) during the term of this Agreement, exceeds $5,000,000 (the “Commitment Reduction Threshold”), the Commitments then in
    effect shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount of such prepayment (taken together with all other mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 2.12(c) during the term of this Agreement) in excess of the Commitment Reduction Threshold (or,
    if less, by the total amount of Commitments then in effect). Any reduction of Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.09(d) shall be permanent and may not be reinstated. Each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.09(d)
    shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their respective Applicable Percentages. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of any such reduction of the Commitments.

  
    50

    
      
 

  

   

  Section 2.10          Repayment of Loans; Evidence of
      Indebtedness.

   

  (a)          The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to
    the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the Maturity Date.

   

  (b)          Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its
    usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

   

  (c)          The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in
    which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender
    hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

   

  (d)          The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant
    to Section 2.10(b) or (c) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error
    therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

   

  (e)          Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be
    evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit D or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent (each, a “Note”). In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable
    to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be
    represented by one or more Notes in such form.

   

  Section 2.11         Optional Prepayments.

   

  (a)          The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from
    time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with Section 2.11(b).

   

  (b)          The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by
    telephone (confirmed by telecopy or electronic mail) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii)
    in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of
    each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment
    may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each
    partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall
    be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.14 and any break funding payments required by Section
      2.17.

  
    51

    
      
 

  

   

  Section 2.12         Mandatory Prepayments.

   

  (a)           If, after giving effect to any termination or
    reduction of the Commitments, the Total Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the Commitments then in effect, then the Borrower shall (i) prepay Loans on the date of such termination or reduction in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to eliminate
    such excess and (ii) if any such excess remains after prepaying all of the Borrowings as a result of any LC Exposure, pay to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, cash collateral, as provided in Section 2.06(j), in respect of LC
    Exposure existing at such time in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such remaining excess.

   

  (b)          If, as of the last day of any calendar month (or if
    such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) (each such date, an “Excess Cash Test Date”), (i) Loans are outstanding and (ii) Available Cash as of such Excess Cash Test Date exceeds $50,000,000 (any such excess, “Excess
      Cash”), then the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof in accordance with Section 5.01(g) and the Borrower shall prepay, within five (5) Business Days after such Excess Cash Test Date, Loans in an aggregate principal
    amount equal to the lesser of (A) the Excess Cash as of such Excess Cash Test Date and (B) the aggregate principal amount of Loans then outstanding.

   

  (c)           Promptly (but in any event within three (3) Business
    Days) following the receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or any Event of Loss, in each case, in excess of (i) $5,000,000 for any single Asset Sale or Event of Loss and (ii) $7,500,000 in the
    aggregate for all such Asset Sales and Events of Loss during the term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall prepay Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds unless, within three (3) Business Days of receiving such
    Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent in writing of the intent of one or more Loan Parties or Restricted Subsidiaries to reinvest all or a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in one or more Related Business Assets within the
    relevant Designated Reinvestment Period following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that (x) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the application of such Net Cash Proceeds for such reinvestment, and
    (y) any such Net Cash Proceeds not actually reinvested within the relevant Designated Reinvestment Period in accordance with the foregoing shall be promptly applied by the Borrower to prepay the Loans in accordance with this Section 2.12(c)
    after the end of such Designated Reinvestment Period.

   

  (d)          Any mandatory prepayment of Loans pursuant hereto
    shall not be limited by the notice or minimum prepayment requirements set forth in Section 2.11. Except as otherwise provided by Section 2.09(d), any prepayment or cash collateralization pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be
    made without any corresponding reduction to the Commitments. Each prepayment of a Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.12
    shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.14 and any break funding payments required by Section 2.17.

   

  Section 2.13         Fees.

   

  (a)          The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent
    for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Commitment Fee Rate on the daily amount of the unused portion of each Lender’s Commitment during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on
    which such Commitment terminates. Commitment fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable in arrears on the fifteenth (15th) day following such last day and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days
    and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day and the last day of each period but excluding the date on which the Commitments terminate).

  
    52

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative
    Agent, for the account of each Lender, a participation fee with respect to its participations in each outstanding Letter of Credit, which shall accrue on the daily maximum stated amount then available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit at the same
    Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans, during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which
    such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the daily
    maximum stated amount then available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any
    LC Exposure with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit and other processing fees, and other standard costs and
    charges, of such Issuing Bank relating the Letters of Credit as from time to time in effect. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the
    fifteenth (15th) day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on
    the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand (and if no such demand is made, payable in arrears on the fifteenth (15th) day after the end of each calendar quarter). Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation fees and
    fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For any Letter of Credit issued with a stated amount in any Specified
    Currency, the fees shall be converted into Dollars using the applicable Exchange Rate in effect five (5) Business Days before any fee with respect thereto shall be due and payable hereunder.

   

  (c)          The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
    Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

   

  (d)          All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates
    due, in dollars in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to an Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be
    refundable under any circumstances.

   

  Section 2.14          Interest.

   

  (a)          The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear
    interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

   

  (b)          The Loans comprising each Term Benchmark Borrowing
    shall bear interest in the case of a Term Benchmark Loan, at the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

  
    53

    
      
 

  

   

  (c)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or
    interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per
      annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.0% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.14 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.0% plus
    the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in Section 2.14(a).

   

  (d)          Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in
    arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) default interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.14(c) shall be payable on demand (and, if no such demand is made, payable in
    arrears on the fifteenth (15th) day after the end of each calendar quarter), (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an
    ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan prior to
    the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

   

  (e)          Interest computed by reference to the Term SOFR Rate
    hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days. Interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days
    in a leap year). In each case interest shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All interest hereunder on any Loan shall be computed on a daily basis based upon the outstanding
    principal amount of such Loan as of the applicable date of determination. The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Term SOFR Rate, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and
    such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

   

  Section 2.15          Alternate Rate of Interest.

   

  (a)          Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d),
    (e) and (f) of this Section 2.15, if:

   

  (i)          the Administrative Agent determines (which
    determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR
    Rate (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple
    SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR; or

   

  (ii)         the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required
    Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining
    their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan)
    included in such Borrowing;

  
    54

    
      
 

  

   

  then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as
    practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Interest
    Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.08 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of
    any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the
    Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 2.15(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 2.15(a)(i) or (ii) above; provided that if the
    circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice
    from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.15(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the
    circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.08 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance
    with the terms of Section 2.03, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to,
    and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 2.15(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section
      2.15(a)(i) or (ii) above, on such day.

   

  (b)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in
    any other Loan Document (and any Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.15), if a Benchmark 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 (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) 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 (b) 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

   

  (c)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in
    any other Loan Document, 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.

   

  (d)          The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the
    Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (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 (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability 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 2.15, 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 2.15.

  
    55

    
      
 

  

   

  (e)          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 the Term SOFR 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.

   

  (f)           Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the
    commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability
    Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (i) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a
    Benchmark Transition Event or (ii) an ABR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event. 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 ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of
    the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to
    this Section 2.15, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall
    constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, on such day.

   

  Section 2.16          Increased Costs.

   

  (a)           If any Change in Law shall:

   

  (i)          impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve,
    special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve
    requirement reflected in the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate) or Issuing Bank;

   

  (ii)         impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the
    applicable offshore interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

  
    56

    
      
 

  

   

  (iii)        subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A)
    Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits,
    reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

   

  and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, continuing, converting or
    maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of
    any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be,
    such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

   

  (b)          If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any
    Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a
    consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing
    Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and
    liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for any
    such reduction suffered.

   

  (c)          A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting
    forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.16(a) or (b) shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent
    manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

   

  (d)          Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing
    Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or
    Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.16 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such
    increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period
    referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

   

  Section 2.17         Break Funding Payments.

   

  (a)          With respect to Loans that are not RFR Loans, in the
    event of (i) the payment of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or an optional or mandatory prepayment of Loans), (ii) the conversion
    of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless
    of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (iv) the assignment of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request
    by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such
    Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after
    receipt thereof.

  
    57

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          With respect to RFR Loans, in the event of (i) the
    payment of any principal of any RFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or an optional or mandatory prepayment of Loans), (ii) the failure to borrow or prepay any RFR Loan on the
    date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (iii) the assignment of any RFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment
    Date applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of any Lender
    setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any
    such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

   

  Section 2.18         Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up.

   

  (a)          Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by
    or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an
    applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full
    amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction
    or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding
    been made.

   

  (b)          Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. The
    Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

   

  (c)          Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable
    after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.18, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
    Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

   

  (d)          Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan
    Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section
      2.18) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally
    imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or
    on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

  
    58

    
      
 

  

   

  (e)          Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender
    shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent
    for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant
    Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether
    or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
    error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to setoff and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against
    any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.18(e).

   

  (f)           Status of Lenders.

   

  (i)          Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
    reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly
    completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by
    the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine
    whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such
    documentation set forth in Section 2.18(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
    unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

   

  (ii)         Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in
    the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

   

  (A)        any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall
    deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an
    executed copy of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

  
    59

    
      
 

  

   

  (B)         any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled
    to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time
    thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

   

  (1)        in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the
    benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S.
    federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or
    reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

   

  (2)        in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming that
    its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI;

   

  (3)        in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the
    benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of
    the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and that no payments payable to such Lender are
    effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable; or

   

  (4)        to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the
    beneficial owner, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or
    other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such
    Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

   

  (C)           any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent
    it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from
    time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly
    completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

   

  (D)           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 Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by
    applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to
    comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D),
    “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

  
    60

    
      
 

  

   

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

   

  (g)          Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party
    determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.18 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section
      2.18), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.18 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket
    expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall
    repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.18(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to
    repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.18(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section
      2.18(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted,
    withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other
    information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

   

  (h)          Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section

      2.18 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations
    under any Loan Document.

   

  (i)           Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section

      2.18, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

   

  Section 2.19         Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment;
      Sharing of Setoffs.

   

  (a)          The Borrower shall make each payment or prepayment
    required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.16, 2.17 or 2.18, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on
    the date when due or the date fixed for any prepayment hereunder, in immediately available funds, without setoff, recoupment or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed
    to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 383 Madison Avenue, New York, New York, except payments to be made
    directly to Issuing Banks as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall
    distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be
    extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. If the Borrower does not, or is unable for any reason to, effect payment of an
    obligation to reimburse an LC Disbursement owing to an Issuing Bank with respect to a Letter of Credit issued in a Specified Currency in such Specified Currency or if the Borrower shall default in the payment when due of any payment in a Specified
    Currency, such payment shall be made to the Lenders in the Dollar Equivalent of such currency determined in accordance with Section 9.22.

  
    61

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          At any time that payments are not required to be
    applied in the manner required by Section 7.03, if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due
    hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second,
    towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

   

  (c)          If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff
    or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans
    and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and
    participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective
    Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price
    restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any
    payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it
    may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such
    Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

   

  (d)          Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received,
    prior to any date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks pursuant to the terms hereof or any other Loan Document (including any date that is fixed for prepayment by notice from the
    Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.11(b)), notice from the Borrower that the Borrower will not make such payment or prepayment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in
    accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing
    Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to
    it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the NYFRB Rate.

   

  Section 2.20          Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of
      Lenders.

   

  (a)           If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section

      2.16 or (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to
    designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (A)
    would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.16 or 2.18, as the case may be, in the future and (B) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such
    Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

  
    62

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section

      2.16, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, (iii) if any Lender becomes Defaulting Lender, or
    (iv) any Lender does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected
    thereby which has been approved by the Required Lenders, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with
    and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.16 or 2.18) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
    Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (x) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent
    (and if a Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Banks), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (y) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC
    Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and
    (z) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.16 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.18, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A
    Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each
    party hereto agrees that (A) an assignment required pursuant to this Section 2.20(b) may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee (or, to the extent applicable, an
    agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants), and (B) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a
    party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to an be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree
    to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender; provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

   

  Section 2.21         Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding
    any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

   

  (a)           fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of
    the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.13(a);

  
    63

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          any payment of principal, interest, fees or other
    amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 7.03 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender
    pursuant to Section 9.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second,
    to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank; third, to cash collateralize LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with this Section 2.21; fourth,
    as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth,
    if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this
    Agreement and (y) cash collateralize future LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with this Section 2.21; sixth, to the payment of any
    amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Banks against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations
    under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against
    such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction;
    provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of
    Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis
    prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC
    Exposure are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages without giving effect to clause (d) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are
    applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto;

   

  (c)           the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such
    Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided
    that this clause (c) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby;

   

  (d)           if any LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender
    becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

   

  (i)          all or any part of the LC Exposure of such
    Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent that such reallocation does not, as to any non-Defaulting Lender, cause such non-Defaulting
    Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed its Commitment;

   

  (ii)         if the reallocation described in clause (i)
    above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Banks only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such
    Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.02(c) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

  
    64

    
      
 

  

   

  (iii)        if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of
    such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.13(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the
    period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

   

  (iv)        if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is
    reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13(a) and Section 2.13(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and

   

  (v)         if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC
    Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise would
    have been payable to such Defaulting Lender under Section 2.13(a) (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.13(b)
    with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

   

  (vi)        so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no
    Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting
    Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.21(d), and LC Exposure related to any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent
    with Section 2.21(d)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

   

  (e)           If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action with
    respect to a Lender Parent shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) any Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other
    agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Issuing Banks shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory
    to such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

   

  (f)            In the event that each of the Administrative Agent,
    the Borrower and each Issuing Bank agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s
    Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.

    Transactions are within Parent’s, the General Partner’s and each Loan Party’s corporate or other organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational and, if required, stockholder action. This Agreement
    has been duly executed and delivered by Parent and the Borrower and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent and the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
    moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

   

  Section 3.03         Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts.
    The Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except (i) filings necessary to perfect and maintain the perfection of the Liens on the Collateral granted
    by the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, (ii) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (iii) those approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations or other action, notices or filings the failure of which to obtain or

    Restricted Subsidiaries or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any material indenture, agreement or other material instrument binding upon Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or any of its
    Restricted Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of, or
    the requirement to create, any Lien on any asset of Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Liens permitted by this Agreement).

   

  Section 3.04         Financial Condition; No Material Adverse
      Change.

   

  (a)          Parent and the Borrower have heretofore furnished to
    the Administrative Agent and the Lenders each of the balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 of Parent and the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows

    consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP.

   

  (b)          Since December 31, 2021, there has been no material

    owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to their businesses, taken as a whole, and the use thereof by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the
    rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

   

  (c)          All property of Parent, the General Partner, the
    Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries that is reasonably necessary for the operation of their businesses is in good working condition in all material respects and is maintained in accordance with prudent business standards for similar businesses in
    their industry.

   

  Section 3.06         Litigation and Environmental Matters.

   

  (a)           There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or
    before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of Parent or the Borrower, threatened in writing against or affecting Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their
    respective Vessels (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect (other than the
    Disclosed Matters) or (ii) that involve this Agreement or the Transactions.

   

  (b)          Except for the Disclosed Matters and except with
    respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (and with respect to clauses (i) and (ii),
    any of their respective Vessels) (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

  (c)          Since the date of this Agreement, there has been no
    change in the status of the Disclosed Matters that, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in, or materially increased the likelihood of, a Material Adverse Effect.

   

  Section 3.07         Compliance with Laws and Agreements; No
      Default. Each of Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property and all indentures, agreements and
    other instruments binding upon it or its property, in each case, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Default has occurred and is continuing.

    67

    
      
 

  

   

  Section 3.10         ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred
    or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be
    expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (a) the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of
    the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plan, and (b) the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes
    of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans.

   

  Section 3.11         Disclosure.

   

  (a)          Neither the Lender Presentation nor any of the other
    reports, financial statements, certificates or other written information furnished by or on behalf of Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or any Subsidiary to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this
    Agreement or delivered hereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished and taken as a whole) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light
    of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions
    believed to be reasonable at the time.

   

  (b)          As of the Effective Date, to the best knowledge of the
    Borrower, the information included in the Beneficial Ownership Certification provided on or prior to the Effective Date to any Lender in connection with this Agreement is true and correct in all respects. The Borrower has provided such information and
    has taken such action, in each case, as has been reasonably requested in writing by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to assist the Administrative Agent or such Lender in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act and the Beneficial
    Ownership Regulation.

   

  Section 3.12         Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions.
    Parent has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws
    and applicable Sanctions, and Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective officers and directors and to the knowledge of the Borrower its employees and agents, are in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and
    applicable Sanctions in all material respects. None of (a) Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower, any Subsidiary, any of their respective directors or officers or employees, or (b) to the knowledge of Parent, any agent of Parent, the General

    Loan Party is an Affected Financial Institution.

   

  Section 3.14         Plan Assets; Prohibited Transactions.
    None of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” (within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulations), and neither the execution, delivery nor performance of the transactions contemplated under this
    Agreement, including the making of any Loan and the issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, will give rise to a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

  
    68

    
      
 

  

   

  Section 3.15         Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.

   

  (a)           The proceeds of the Loans shall only be used for (i)
    working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, including for investments and acquisitions and (ii) the repayment on the Effective Date of amounts owing under the Existing Revolving Note. Letters of
    Credit will be issued only to support the general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. No Borrowing or Letter of Credit, use of proceeds or other Transaction will violate any Anti-Corruption Law or applicable Sanctions.

   

  (b)           None of Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or
    any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is engaged, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock, or extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock, and no part of the
    proceeds of any Borrowing or Letter of Credit extension hereunder will be used to buy or carry any Margin Stock. Following the application of the proceeds of each Borrowing or drawing under each Letter of Credit, not more than 25.0% of the value of the
    assets (either of the Borrower only or of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) will be Margin Stock.

  Section 3.20         Collateral Documents.

   

  (a)          Subject to making or procuring the appropriate
    registrations, filings, endorsements, notarizations, stampings, notifications and/or acknowledgments of the Collateral Documents and/or the Liens created thereunder, each Collateral Document to which a Loan Party is a party is effective to create in
    favor of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in, and Lien on, such Loan Party’s right, title and interest in the Collateral described therein. When financing statements or
    equivalent filings or notices have been made or the Collateral Vessel Mortgages are filed or recorded in the appropriate offices as may be required under applicable law and upon the taking of possession or control by the Administrative Agent of such
    Collateral with respect to which a security interest may be perfected only by possession or control (which possession or control shall be given to the Administrative Agent to the extent required by any Collateral Document), the Administrative Agent
    shall have fully perfected Liens on, and security interests in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Liens, other than Permitted Encumbrances and Permitted Maritime
    Liens which are permitted to attach to such Collateral under the terms of this Agreement.

   

  (b)          Each Collateral Vessel Mortgage is or, when executed,
    will be in proper legal form under the laws of the jurisdiction of the flag under which such Vessel is registered in the name of the applicable Collateral Vessel Owner for the enforcement thereof under such laws and the laws of the jurisdiction of
    organization of the applicable Collateral Vessel Owner party thereto. To ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence of each such Collateral Vessel Mortgage in the jurisdiction in which such Vessel is flagged or the
    jurisdiction of the applicable Loan Party party thereto, it is not necessary that any Collateral Vessel Mortgage or any other document be filed or recorded with any court or other authority in any such jurisdiction, except for those filings as have
    been, or will be, made.

   

  Section 3.21         Pari Passu or Priority Status.
    Neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party has taken any action which would cause the claims of unsecured creditors of the Borrower or of any other Loan Party, as the case may be (other than claims of such creditors to the extent that they are
    statutorily preferred or Permitted Encumbrances or Permitted Maritime Liens), to have priority over the claims of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties against the Borrower and such other Loan Party under this Agreement or the other
    Loan Documents.

   

  Section 3.22         No Immunity. Neither the Borrower
    nor any other Loan Party is a sovereign entity or has immunity on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise from setoff or any legal process under the laws of any jurisdiction. The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents by the Loan Parties and the
    performance by them of their respective obligations thereunder constitute commercial transactions.

    effect its legal existence and the rights, licenses, permits, privileges and franchises material to the conduct of its business; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any merger, sale, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution
    permitted under Section 6.03.

   

  Section 5.04         Payment of Taxes. Parent, the
    General Partner and each of the Loan Parties will pay its Tax liabilities, that, if not paid, could result in a Material Adverse Effect before the same shall become delinquent or in default, except where (a) the validity or amount thereof is being
    contested in good faith diligently conducted by appropriate proceedings, (b) Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto and (c) the failure to make payment pending such
    contest could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

   

  Section 5.05         Maintenance of Properties; Vessel
      Contracts.

   

  (a)          The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
    Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain, preserve and keep its properties and equipment necessary to the proper conduct of its business in reasonably good repair, working order and condition (normal wear and tear or damage done by casualty or condemnation
    excepted) and will from time to time make all reasonably necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and betterments thereto so that at all times such properties and equipment are reasonably preserved and maintained, in each case with such
    exceptions as could not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.05 shall prevent the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary
    from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any such properties or equipment if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Borrower desirable in the conduct of its business.

   

  (b)          The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
    Restricted Subsidiaries to, at all times, and without cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, maintain and preserve, or cause to be maintained and preserved, each Vessel owned by it or such Restricted Subsidiary and its material equipment, outfit
    and appurtenances, tight, staunch, strong, in good condition, working order and repair and fit for its intended service, in each case, with ordinary wear and tear excepted. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, with
    respect to each Vessel owned by it or such Restricted Subsidiary, at all times materially comply with all applicable laws, treaties and conventions of the jurisdiction in which the applicable Vessel is flagged, and rules and regulations issued
    thereunder, and shall have on board as and when required thereby valid certificates showing such material compliance therewith. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, keep each Vessel owned by it or such Restricted
    Subsidiary in such condition as will entitle such Vessel to maintain its classification, as is applicable for Vessels of comparable age and type, by the American Bureau of Shipping, Bureau Veritas or another internationally recognized classification
    society reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, keep each Vessel owned by it or such Restricted Subsidiary, comply with and satisfy in all material respects the
    provisions of any applicable law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on such Vessel owner, the Borrower, the Borrower’s Subsidiaries or such Vessel with respect to pollution by any
    state or nation or political subdivision thereof and will maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order with respect to the trade in which the
    Vessel is from time to time engaged and the cargo carried by it. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain each Vessel owned by it or such Restricted Subsidiary in a seaworthy condition (it being understood that
    maintenance of a Vessel owned by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary in a manner consistent with applicable industry practices in respect of similar types of vessels used for similar purposes shall be deemed to constitute compliance with this
    last sentence of Section 5.05(b)), subject to periods of scheduled dry-docking and other routine maintenance, and other than preservation stacked, warm stacked or cold stacked Vessels. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section
      5.05(b) shall prevent the Borrower from, in its business judgement, discontinuing use or maintenance of a Vessel or any portion thereof with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders). 

  
    77

    
      
 

  

   

  (c)          The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
    Restricted Subsidiaries to, supply the Administrative Agent promptly following its receipt of a written request from the Administrative Agent with copies of all survey reports with respect to such Vessel that are in Parent’s, the Borrower’s or any such
    Restricted Subsidiary’s possession or otherwise readily available to any such Persons without cost or undue burden.

   

  (d)          The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
    Restricted Subsidiaries to, promptly notify the Administrative Agent of and furnish the Administrative Agent with full information, promptly upon becoming available, including copies of reports and surveys, regarding any material accident or accident
    involving repairs (except to the extent any such accident could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect).

   

  (e)          The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
    applicable Restricted Subsidiary to, use commercially reasonable efforts to, perform any and all charter contracts which are, or may be, entered into with respect to each Vessel, except to the extent any such nonperformance could not reasonably be
    expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

   

  Section 5.06          Insurance.

   

  (a)          The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
    Restricted Subsidiaries to, or will cause an Affiliate of the Borrower to arrange through a bareboat charterer, agent or otherwise, on behalf of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, (i) maintain with financially sound and reputable
    insurance companies (provided that this Section 5.06 shall not be deemed to be breached if an insurance company with which the Borrower, any Restricted Subsidiary or the applicable Affiliate of the Borrower maintains insurance becomes
    financially troubled and the Borrower, such Restricted Subsidiary or such Affiliate of the Borrower reasonably promptly obtains coverage from a different, financially sound insurer) insurance on the Vessels and other material insurable properties of
    the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in at least such amounts and against all such risks as is consistent and in accordance with normal industry practice for similarly situated insureds and as provided in this Section 5.06 (the “Required
      Insurance”) and (ii) furnish to the Administrative Agent, at the written request of the Administrative Agent (which such request shall not be more often than once per calendar year), a complete description of the material terms of insurance
    carried on the Vessels owned by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

  
    78

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          The Borrower will, and will cause each of the
    Collateral Vessel Owners to, or will cause an Affiliate of the Borrower to arrange through a bareboat charterer, agent or otherwise to, on behalf of the Borrower and the Collateral Vessel Owners, at all times to keep the Collateral Vessels insured in
    favor of the Administrative Agent as provided in this Section 5.06; and (i) all policies or certificates with respect to such insurance (and any other insurance maintained by the Borrower or such Collateral Vessel Owners): (A) shall be endorsed
    to the Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction for the benefit of the Administrative Agent (including by naming the Administrative Agent as lender loss payee or additional insured, as its interests may appear) and (B) shall provide that the
    respective insurers irrevocably waive any and all rights of subrogation with respect to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and (ii) the Borrower and/or the applicable Collateral Vessel Owner will use commercially reasonable efforts
    to provide that such insurance policies state that they shall not be canceled for non-payment of premium without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof by the respective insurer to the Borrower who shall promptly advise the
    Administrative Agent. On the Effective Date and from time to time thereafter to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, but no more frequently than once each calendar year, the Borrower shall deliver certificates evidencing such
    insurance policies for deposit with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty or obligation to verify the adequacy or existence of any such insurance or any such policies or endorsements.

   

  (c)          The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
    Restricted Subsidiaries to, or will cause an Affiliate of the Borrower to, on behalf of the Borrower and the applicable Restricted Subsidiaries, cause their respective Vessels to be insured with insurers or protection and indemnity clubs or
    associations of the type described in Section 5.06(a)(i), against the risks indicated below:

   

  (i)          marine war risk insurance, including primary P&I
    war risk insurance and coverage afforded by the standard Marine War Risk Coverage including Missing Vessel Clause (or equivalent), and marine hull and machinery insurance which insurance coverage in the aggregate shall be in an amount equal to not less
    than the lesser of (A) 110% of the total Commitments at such time and (B) 110% of the appraised aggregate fair market value of all such Vessels at such time, except as otherwise reasonably agreed in writing by the Administrative Agent. The insured
    values for hull and machinery required under this clause (c)(i) for any individual Vessel shall at all times be in an amount not less than 100% of the fair market value of such Vessel, and the remaining hull and machinery insurance required by
    this clause (c)(i) with respect to each Vessel may be procured as increased value and/or disbursements insurance;

   

  (ii)         marine protection and indemnity insurance or
    equivalent (including coverage against liability for war risk perils, passengers, including crew, pollution (including liability for oil pollution in such amounts as are from time to time available through an entry in a P&I club that is a member of
    the International Group of P&I Clubs, which amount currently available is $1,000,000,000 and excess war risk protection and indemnity cover), spillage or leakage, as shall be required by applicable law) in an amount equal to not less than the
    maximum poolable limits provided by a P&I club that is a member of the International Group of P&I Clubs; provided, however, that insurance against liability under applicable law or international convention arising out of
    pollution, spillage or leakage, in each case, shall be in an amount not less than the amounts required by the laws or regulations of the United States or any applicable jurisdiction in which such Vessel may be trading from time to time;

   

  (iii)        to the extent such Vessel’s operation requires such
    insurance under applicable law or regulation, insurance in respect of workers’ compensation or U.S. Longshore and Harbor Worker’s Act insurance, in each case, in an amount not less than the amounts required by the laws or regulations of the United
    States or any applicable jurisdiction in which such Vessel may be trading from time to time;

   

  (iv)        the mortgagee’s interest insurance (including
    extended mortgagee’s interest-additional perils-pollution) coverage for an amount of not less than 110% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans at such time on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

  
    79

    
      
 

  

   

  (v)         for the marine, war-risks and protection and
    indemnity/liability insurances required herein, the Borrower or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary shall have the discretion to utilize deductibles or self-insured retentions that are customary for similar Vessels engaged in similar activities; and

   

  (vi)        such other insurances as a prudent owner of similar
    vessels of the same age and type would obtain or would legally be required to obtain when operating in the same trade and geographic area as such Collateral Vessel, as well as any insurances required to meet the requirements of the jurisdiction where
    such Collateral Vessel is employed.

   

  All insurance maintained hereunder shall be primary insurance without right of contribution against any other insurance maintained by the
    Administrative Agent. The policy of marine and war risk hull and machinery insurance with respect to the Collateral Vessels shall provide that the Administrative Agent shall be named in its capacity as Administrative Agent and as a lender loss payee
    and the loss payee clause shall refer to a major casualty amount of $10,000,000, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Administrative Agent pursuant to an assignment of insurances or other agreement. Any such entry in a marine and war risk
    protection and indemnity club with respect to the Collateral Vessels shall note the interest of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and its successors and permitted assigns shall not be responsible for any premiums, club calls, if any,
    assessments or any other obligations or for the representations and warranties made therein by any Collateral Vessel Owner, the Borrower, any of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries or any other Person.

   

  (d)          The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries will, or
    will cause an Affiliate of the Borrower on behalf of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain loss of hire insurance with respect to the business and operations of each Vessel, which loss of hire insurance shall (i) be in an amount not
    less than the applicable full hire of such Vessel at any one time (as determined by the Borrower, in its sole but reasonable business judgment, from time to time) and (ii) remain in effect for at least six months assuming ordinary operations of the
    Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries are suspended for at least thirty (30) days.

   

  (e)          The Borrower will, or will cause each of the
    Collateral Vessel Owners to, or will cause an Affiliate of the Borrower to, on behalf of the Borrower and the applicable Collateral Vessel Owners, furnish to the Administrative Agent (i) copies of all certificates of insurance with respect to the
    marine hull and machinery and marine war risk insurance carried and maintained on the Collateral Vessels and (ii) certificates of entry with respect to the protection and indemnity insurance carried and maintained on the Collateral Vessels. The
    Borrower will, or will cause each of the Collateral Vessel Owners to, or will cause an Affiliate of the Borrower to, on behalf of the Borrower and the applicable Collateral Vessel Owners, cause such insurance broker and/or the protection and indemnity
    club or association providing protection and indemnity insurance referred to in Section 5.06(c)(ii), to agree to provide the Administrative Agent with such information as to such insurances as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request
    with respect to expiration, termination or cancellation of any policy or any default in the payment of any premium.

   

  (f)           Unless the Administrative Agent has given notice to
    the underwriters of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, all insurance claim proceeds of whatsoever nature with respect to the Vessels owned by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries payable under any insurance shall be payable
    to the Borrower, the applicable Vessel owner or others as their interests may appear; thereafter, payments of insurance claim proceeds with respect to the Vessels shall be made to the Administrative Agent for distribution in accordance herewith.

  
    80

    
      
 

  

   

  (g)          In the event that any claim or Lien in excess of
    $10,000,000 is asserted against a Collateral Vessel for loss, damage or expense that is covered by insurance required hereunder and it is necessary for the applicable Collateral Vessel Owner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest
    of such Collateral Vessel or to release such Collateral Vessel from arrest on account of such claim or Lien, the Administrative Agent, on request of the applicable Collateral Vessel Owner, may, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, assign
    to any person, firm or corporation executing a surety or guarantee bond or other agreement to save or release the Collateral Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of the Administrative Agent in and to said insurance covering said loss,
    damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement.

   

  (h)          The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Vessel
    owner to, execute or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by which any insurance required under this Section 5.06 may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and will not permit or allow any Vessel to undertake any voyage or operational
    risk which may not be permitted by the policies in force, without having previously notified the Administrative Agent in writing and insured the relevant Vessel by additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks, passengers or cargoes in
    accordance with customary marine insurance industry standards.

   

  (i)           If an Event of Default has occurred and is
    continuing, subject to the rights of any charterer, the Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right to negotiate and agree to any compromise to any claim with respect to any Collateral Vessel with respect to which any underwriter proposes to
    pay less on any claim than the amount thereof.

   

  (j)           If the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall
    fail to maintain insurance in accordance with this Section 5.06 with respect to the Collateral Vessels, the Administrative Agent shall have the right (but shall be under no obligation) to procure such insurance, and the Borrower agrees to
    reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses of procuring such insurance.

   

  (k)          Together with the delivery of the financial statements
    required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(b), the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a customary report of an insurance consultant (such consultant to be selected by the Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the
    Administrative Agent) confirming that the insurance policies of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries satisfy the minimum coverage requirements required by this Section 5.06 and that the terms of such insurance policies are not less than
    (or less favorable than) the insurances then maintained by prudent owners and operators of similar vessels in similar trades to the Vessels.

   

  (l)           Upon the reasonable request of the Administrative
    Agent, the Borrower will, or will cause each Collateral Vessel Owner to, do all things reasonably necessary, and execute and deliver all documents and instruments reasonably necessary, to enable the Administrative Agent to collect or recover any moneys
    that become due in respect of the insurance required pursuant to this Section 5.06.

   

  Section 5.07         Books and Records; Inspection Rights.
    Each of Parent and the Borrower will, and Parent and the Borrower, as applicable, will cause the General Partner and each of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries to, keep proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries are
    made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities. Each of Parent and the Borrower will, and Parent and the Borrower, as applicable, will cause the General Partner and each of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries to,
    permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice, to visit and inspect its properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and records, to discuss its affairs,
    finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants and to provide contact information for each bank where each Loan Party has a deposit account and/or securities account and each such Loan Party hereby authorizes the Administrative
    Agent and each Lender to contact the bank(s) in order to request bank statements and/or balances, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested; provided, that unless an Event of Default then exists and is continuing, there
    shall be no more than one (1) such visit per calendar year for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole; provided, further, that any visits and inspections of such properties shall be conducted in compliance with the
    Borrower’s and/or such Subsidiary’s applicable safety and COVID protocols (it being understood that no such protocols shall not adopted for the sole purpose of preventing the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders from conducting such visits and
    inspections).

  Section 5.08         Compliance with Laws. Each of Parent
    and the Borrower will, and Parent and the Borrower, as applicable, will cause the General Partner and each of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it
    or its property (including Environmental Laws and ERISA), except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; provided that each of Parent and the
    Borrower will, and Parent and the Borrower, as applicable, will cause the General Partner and each of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries to, comply with all Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects. Each of Parent and

    Laws and applicable Sanctions.

   

  Section 5.09         Use of Proceeds and Letters of Credit.
    The proceeds of the Loans shall be used for, and the Letters of Credit shall only be issued for, the purposes described in Section 3.15(a). No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that
    entails a violation of any of the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, including Regulations T, U and X. The Borrower will not request any Borrowing or Letter of Credit, and the Borrower shall not use, and shall procure that its Subsidiaries and
    its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use, the proceeds of any Borrowing or Letter of Credit (a) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything
    else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (b) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, except to the
    extent permitted for a Person required to comply with Sanctions, or (c) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.

  (iii)        Upon (A) delivery of any Vessel under construction
    to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, (B) the acquisition by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Vessel or (C) any Vessel owned as of the Effective Date which is not a Collateral Vessel ceasing to be subject to

    after giving effect to the addition of the additional Collateral Vessels all Vessels in the registered ownership of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Vessels) are subject to Collateral Vessel Mortgages. In connection
    with the execution and delivery of such Collateral Vessel Mortgages over such additional Collateral Vessels, the Borrower shall, or shall cause the applicable Collateral Vessel Owner, within sixty (60) days of (or such longer period of time as the
    Administrative Agent may reasonably agree) of the Additional Vessel Date, to deliver (1) opinions of local counsel for the jurisdiction in which the applicable additional Collateral Vessel is flagged, covering customary matters and in form and
    substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (2) and such other filings or actions necessary or desirable in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent to perfect the security interest created by such Collateral Vessel

    property that is required to be pledged as Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, which intellectual property would not be automatically subject to a Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the then-existing Collateral

    take, such actions as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to grant and perfect or record such Lien, in each case to the extent required by, and subject to the applicable limitations and exceptions of, the Collateral
    Documents and to otherwise comply with the requirements of the Collateral Documents.

   

  (iii)        In addition to the other requirements of this Section

      5.12, if at any time (x) any Loan Party (including any Discretionary Guarantor) that is not an Immaterial Subsidiary is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States of America (or any State thereof) and (y) the
    Administrative Agent determines in its reasonable discretion that the execution and delivery of additional Collateral Documents is necessary or advisable in order to effectuate the pledge of Equity Interests of, the grant of Liens by, or the Guarantee
    by such Loan Party contemplated by this Section 5.12 under the applicable laws of any such jurisdiction (including any non-U.S. jurisdiction), then within sixty (60) days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may reasonably
    agree) after written notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, the Borrower shall, and shall cause its applicable Restricted Subsidiaries to, execute and deliver such additional Collateral Documents to the Administrative Agent,
    together with such other additional closing documents, certificates and legal opinions as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith.

  (b)          Corporate Changes. Promptly, but in any event,
    within ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence thereof (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion), the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent written notice of any
    change in (i) the Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s corporate name, (ii) the jurisdiction in which the Borrower or any Guarantor is incorporated, formed, or otherwise organized, (iii) the location of the Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s chief executive

  Section 5.14          Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

   

  (a)          Each of Parent and the Borrower will cause the
    management, business and affairs of each of Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower, the Restricted Subsidiaries and the Unrestricted Subsidiaries to be conducted in such a manner (including, without limitation, by keeping separate books of account
    and by not permitting properties of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries to be commingled) so that each Unrestricted Subsidiary will be treated as a legal entity separate and distinct from the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

   

  (b)          Unless designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary on Schedule

      5.14 as of the Effective Date or designated as such thereafter, subject to Section 5.14(c), any Person that becomes a Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary.

   

  (c)          The Borrower may designate by written notification
    thereof to the Administrative Agent, any Restricted Subsidiary, including a newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary, as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if (i) immediately prior, and upon giving effect, to such designation, no Default has occurred and is
    continuing or would immediately result therefrom, (ii) such designation is deemed to be an Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary in an amount equal to the fair market value as of the date of such designation of the Borrower’s direct and indirect
    ownership interest in such Subsidiary and such Investment would be permitted to be made at the time of such designation under Section 6.05 and (iii) the Borrower and such Subsidiary comply with the requirements of Section 5.12. Except
    as provided in this Section 5.14(c), no Restricted Subsidiary may be redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. None of the Borrower or any Subsidiary that owns any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or holds any Lien on any property of, the
    Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not a Subsidiary to be so designated may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

   

  (d)          The Borrower may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary
    to be a Restricted Subsidiary if, immediately after giving effect to such designation, (i) no Default has occurred and is continuing or would immediately result therefrom and (ii) such designation is deemed to be the incurrence at such time of
    designation of any Investment, Indebtedness and Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time and such Investment, Indebtedness and Liens would be permitted to be made or incurred at the time of such designation under each of Section 6.05, Section
      6.01 and Section 6.02.

   

  (e)          No Unrestricted Subsidiary shall have any Indebtedness
    other than Non-Recourse Debt and the Borrower will not, and will not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, incur, assume, guarantee or be or become liable for any Indebtedness of any of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries (other than a Guarantee
    pursuant to the Experience Standby Charter Guarantee).

   

  (f)           The Borrower will not permit any Unrestricted
    Subsidiary to hold any Equity Interest in, or any indebtedness of, any Loan Party.

   

  If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary fails to meet the requirements of Section 5.14(d), it shall thereafter cease to be an
    Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes hereof and any Indebtedness and Investments of the Subsidiary and any Liens on assets of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred or made by a Restricted Subsidiary at such time and the Borrower shall not be
    deemed to be in default of this Section 5.14, but if the Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred under Section 6.01, the Investments are prohibited by Section 6.05, or the Lien is not permitted under Section 6.02,
    the Borrower shall be in default of the applicable covenant.

  
    86

    
      
 

  

   

  Section 5.15         Commodity Exchange Act Keepwell
      Provisions. The Borrower hereby guarantees the payment and performance of all Indebtedness of each Loan Party (other than the Borrower) and absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be
    needed from time to time by each Loan Party (other than the Borrower) in order for such Loan Party to honor its obligations under its respective Guarantee of the Obligations including obligations with respect to Swap Agreements (provided, however,
    that the Borrower shall only be liable under this Section 5.15 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 5.15, or otherwise under this Agreement or any Loan
    Document, as it relates to such other Loan Parties, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 5.15 shall remain in
    full force and effect until the Commitments have expired or been terminated and the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash (other than any indemnification and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim has
    been made at such time) and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or terminated, in each case, without any pending draw (or arrangements otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank in respect thereof have been made), and all LC
    Disbursements shall have been reimbursed. The Borrower intends that this Section 5.15 constitute, and this Section 5.15 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party
    for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

   

  Section 5.16         Post-Closing Undertakings. As
    promptly as practicable, and in any event within the time periods after the Effective Date specified in Schedule 5.16 (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in writing in its sole but good faith discretion), the Borrower
    shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the documents or take, or cause to be taken, the actions specified on Schedule 5.16.

    other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

   

  In addition to any other rights and remedies granted to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders in the Loan Documents, the
    Administrative Agent on behalf of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
    Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Loan Party or any other Person (all and each of which
    demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived by each of Parent and the Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any
    part thereof, or consent to the use by any Loan Party of any cash collateral arising in respect of the Collateral on such terms as the Administrative Agent deems reasonable, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give an option or options to
    purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver, or acquire by credit bid on behalf of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or
    sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank or Lender or elsewhere, upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future
    delivery, all without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank or Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase
    the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Loan Party, which right or equity is hereby waived and released by each of Parent and the Borrower on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries. Each of
    Parent and the Borrower further agrees on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall
    reasonably select, whether at the premises of the Borrower, another Loan Party or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Article VII, after deducting all reasonable costs and
    expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any other way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders
    hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative
    Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section 9-615(a)(3) of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to Parent or any Loan Party. To the extent permitted by
    applicable law, each of Parent and the Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, waives all Liabilities it may acquire against the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender arising out of the exercise by them of any rights
    hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition.

   

  Section 7.03         Application of Payments.
    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and notice thereof to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or the Required Lenders:

   

  (a)           all payments received on account of the Obligations
    shall, subject to Section 2.21, be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows:

  (i)          first, to payment of that portion of the

    pursuant to Section 2.13(c) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such);

   

  (ii)         second, to payment of that portion of the
    Obligations constituting fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, reimbursement obligations in respect of LC Disbursements, interest and Letter of Credit fees) payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (including fees and
    disbursements and other charges of counsel to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks payable under Section 9.03) arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (ii)
    payable to them;

   

  (iii)        third, to payment of that portion of the
    Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit fees and charges and interest on the Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements and any fees, premiums and scheduled periodic payments due under Specified Cash Management Agreements or Specified
    Swap Agreements, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (iii) payable to them;

   

  (iv)        fourth, (A) to payment of that portion of the
    Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, and any breakage, termination or other payments under any Specified Cash Management Agreements or Specified Swap Agreements and (B) to cash collateralize that
    portion of LC Exposure comprising the undrawn amount of Letters of Credit to the extent not otherwise cash collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.21, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the
    respective amounts described in this clause (iv) payable to them; provided that (x) any such amounts applied pursuant to subclause (B) above shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the applicable
    Issuing Banks to cash collateralize Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, (y) subject to Section 2.06 or 2.21, amounts used to cash collateralize the aggregate amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to this clause (iv)
    shall be used to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur and (z) upon the expiration of any Letter of Credit (without any pending drawings), the pro rata share of cash collateral shall be distributed to the other
    Obligations, if any, in the order set forth in this Section 7.03;

   

  (v)         fifth, to the payment in full of all other
    Obligations, in each case ratably among the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to them in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and payable; and

   

  (vi)        finally, the balance, if any, after all
    Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted) have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by law; and

   

  (b)          if any amount remains on deposit as cash collateral
    after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired (without any pending drawings), such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth in clause (a) above.

  ARTICLE VIII

    THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

   

  Section 8.01         Authorization and Action.

   

  (a)          Each Lender and each Issuing Bank (including, in each
    case, in its capacity as a holder of any Specified Swap Agreement Obligations and/or Specified Cash Management Obligations) hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its successors and
    assigns to serve as the administrative agent under the Loan Documents and each Lender and each Issuing Bank authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other
    Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than within the United
    States, each Lender and each Issuing Bank (including, in each case, in its capacity as a holder of any Specified Swap Agreement Obligations and/or Specified Cash Management Obligations) hereby grants to the Administrative Agent any required powers of
    attorney to execute and enforce any Collateral Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s behalf. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank (including, in each case, in its
    capacity as a holder of any Specified Swap Agreement Obligations and/or Specified Cash Management Obligations) hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which
    the Administrative Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank (including, in each case, in its capacity as a holder of any
    Specified Swap Agreement Obligations and/or Specified Cash Management Obligations) hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into any subordination agreement or intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement, and any
    amendment, modification, supplement or joinder with respect thereto, and each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby acknowledges that any such intercreditor agreement (or amendment, modification, supplement or joinder) is binding upon such Lender and
    each Issuing Bank, as applicable. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank (including, in each case, in its capacity as a holder of any Specified Swap Agreement Obligations and/or Specified Cash Management Obligations) agrees that (a) no Secured Party (other
    than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon or enforce the security granted by, or to exercise rights or remedies under, any Collateral Document or any Guarantee provided under any Loan Document, it being
    understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the Loan Documents, and (b) in the event that any Collateral is now or hereafter pledged by
    or otherwise subject to a Lien granted by any Person as collateral security for the Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any
    documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, including each holder of any Specified Swap Agreement Obligations and each holder of any Specified
    Cash Management Obligations.

   

  (b)          As to any matters not expressly provided for herein
    and in the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in
    so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing,
    such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and each Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to
    liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification and is exculpated in a manner satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document
    or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination
    of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction
    from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not
    have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as
    Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder
    or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

  
    102

    
      
 

  

   

  (c)           In performing its functions and duties hereunder and
    under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are
    entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

   

  (i)          the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall
    not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender or Issuing Bank or any other Secured Party other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents,
    regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative
    Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an
    administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent
    in connection with this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby;

   

  (ii)         where the Administrative Agent is required or deemed
    to act as a trustee in respect of any Collateral over which a security interest has been created pursuant to a Loan Document expressed to be governed by the laws of the United Kingdom, or is required or deemed to hold any Collateral “on trust” pursuant
    to the foregoing, the obligations and liabilities of the Administrative Agent to the Secured Parties in its capacity as trustee shall be excluded to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law;

   

  (iii)        to the extent that English law is applicable to the
    duties of the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, Section 1 of the Trustee Act 2000 of the United Kingdom shall not apply to the duties of the Administrative Agent in relation to the trusts constituted by that Loan Document; where
    there are inconsistencies between the Trustee Act 1925 or the Trustee Act 2000 of the United Kingdom and the provisions of this Agreement or such Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, prevail
    and, in the case of any inconsistency with the Trustee Act 2000 of the United Kingdom, the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute a restriction or exclusion for the purposes of that Act; and

   

  (iv)        nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall
    require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender or any Issuing Bank for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account;

  
    103

    
      
 

  

   

  (d)          The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties
    and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and
    exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall
    apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and
    nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.

   

  (e)          No Arranger shall have obligations or duties
    whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.

   

  (f)           In case of the pendency of any proceeding with
    respect to Parent, the General Partner or any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or
    any other amount shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by
    intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

   

  (i)          to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of
    the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Disbursements and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the
    Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.16, 2.18 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

   

  (ii)         to collect and receive any monies or other property
    payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

   

  and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each
    Issuing Bank and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the other Secured
    Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative
    Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank or to authorize the
    Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.

   

  (g)          The provisions of this Article are solely for the
    benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and, except solely to the extent of the Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or
    any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the
    Guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article.

   

  Section 8.02          Administrative Agent’s Reliance,
      Limitation of Liability, Etc.

   

  (a)          Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its
    Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by such party, the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (A) with the consent of or at
    the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (B)
    in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the
    Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by Parent, the General Partner or 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 Administrative Agent 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 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image
    of an actual executed signature page) or for any failure of Parent, the General Partner or any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

  
    104

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have
    knowledge of any (i) notice of any of the events or circumstances set forth or described in Section 5.02 unless and until written notice thereof stating that it is a “notice under Section 5.02” in respect of this Agreement and
    identifying the specific clause under said Section is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, or (ii) notice of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of Default” or a “notice of
    an Event of Default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank. Further, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (A) any statement, warranty or
    representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (C) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or
    other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (D) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or
    document, (E) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items (which on their face purport to be such items) expressly required to be delivered to the
    Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or (F) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral.
    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, or be responsible for any Liabilities, costs or expenses suffered by Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, any Lender or
    any Issuing Bank as a result of, any determination of the Revolving Credit Exposure, any of the component amounts thereof or any portion thereof attributable to each Lender or Issuing Bank.

   

  (c)          Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative
    Agent (i) may treat the payee of any Note as its holder until such Note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel
    (including counsel to the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or
    experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of Parent, the General Partner or any Loan
    Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a
    Lender or an Issuing Bank, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance of the making
    of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other
    instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise
    authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).

  
    105

    
      
 

  

   

  Section 8.03         Posting of Communications.

   

  (a)          Each of Parent and the Borrower agrees that the
    Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on IntraLinksTM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the
    Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

   

  (b)          Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its
    primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the
    Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks, Parent and the Borrower
    acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to
    the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks, Parent and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications
    through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

   

  (c)          THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE
    COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY
    FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY
    RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ARRANGER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE
    RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
    DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

   

  “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf
    of Parent, the General Partner or any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank by means of electronic communications pursuant to
    this Section, including through an Approved Electronic Platform.

  
    106

    
      
 

  

   

  (d)          Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that notice
    to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and
    Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent
    by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

   

  (e)          Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks, Parent
    and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally
    applicable document retention procedures and policies.

   

  (f)           Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the
    Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

   

  Section 8.04         The Administrative Agent Individually.
    With respect to its Commitment, Loans, Letter of Credit Commitments and Letters of Credit, the Person serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and
    liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be. The terms “Issuing Banks”, “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include
    the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, Issuing Bank or as one of the Required Lenders, as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities
    of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as
    the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks.

   

  Section 8.05         Successor Administrative Agent.

   

  (a)          The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by
    giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to
    appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of
    notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In
    either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of
    any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the
    acceptance of appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring
    Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the
    Loan Documents.

  
    107

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          Notwithstanding Section 8.05(a), in the event
    no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give
    notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its
    duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document for the benefit of the Secured
    Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and continue to be entitled to the rights set forth in such Collateral Document and Loan
    Document, and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance
    with this Section 8.05 (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of
    any such security interest), and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder
    or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or
    made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and each Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section
      9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related
    Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (i) above. The fees
    payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.

   

  Section 8.06         Acknowledgements of Lenders and Issuing
      Banks.

   

  (a)          Each Lender and each Issuing Bank represents and
    warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender or
    Issuing Bank, in each case in the ordinary course of business, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument (and each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of
    the foregoing), (iii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it
    has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder and (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial
    loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide
    such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
    Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States
    securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related
    agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

  
    108

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this
    Agreement on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and
    approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date.

   

  (c)          (i) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby agrees
    that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or such Issuing Bank that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender or such Issuing Bank from the Administrative Agent or any of its
    Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender or such Issuing Bank (whether or not known to such
    Lender or such Issuing Bank), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of
    any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or such Issuing
    Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and
    (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or
    counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or any Issuing Bank
    under this Section 8.06(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

   

  (ii)         Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby further
    agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its
    Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender and
    each Issuing Bank agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon
    demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day
    funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of
    the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

  
    109

    
      
 

  

   

  (iii)        The Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees
    that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Lender or any Issuing Bank that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of
    such Lender or such Issuing Bank with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party; provided that this Section
      8.06 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Loan Party relative to the amount (and/or timing for
    payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) not been made by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses
      (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is, and solely with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative
    Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of paying, prepaying, repaying, discharging or otherwise satisfying any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party.

   

  (iv)        Each party’s obligations under this Section
      8.06(c) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all
    Obligations under any Loan Document.

   

  Section 8.07          Collateral Matters.

   

  (a)           Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights
    in accordance with Section 9.08 or with respect to a Secured Party’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any
    Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof.

   

  (b)           In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation
    thereof, no arrangements in respect of any Specified Swap Agreement Obligations or any Specified Cash Management Obligations will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the
    management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of Parent, the General Partner or any Loan Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such arrangement in respect
    of any Specified Swap Agreement Obligations or any Specified Cash Management Obligations, as applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the
    Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

   

  (c)           The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the
    Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section
      6.02(a). The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of
    the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by Parent, the General Partner or any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for any
    failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

  
    110

    
      
 

  

   

  Section 8.08         Credit Bidding. The Secured Parties
    hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations
    pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the
    Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which Parent, the General Partner or any Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of
    collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the
    Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims
    receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests)
    for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be
    authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without
    any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or
    vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the
    governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be,
    irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.02), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall
    be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such
    acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition
    vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle
    or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of
    such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to
    the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive
    interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of
    the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

    determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement,

    “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans,

    may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

    Arranger or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the Collateral or the assets of such Lender (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan
    Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

   

  (c)          The Administrative Agent and each Arranger hereby
    informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking to provide investment advice or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the
    transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments, this Agreement and any other Loan Documents (ii) may recognize a
    gain if it extended the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in
    connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Loan Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees, ticking fees, agency fees, administrative agent or collateral agent

  Section 9.02         Waivers; Amendments.

   

  (a)          No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any
    Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or
    power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or
    remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.02(b), and then such
    waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any
    Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

   

  (b)          Subject to Section 2.15(b) and (c) and
    Section 9.02(c) below, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the
    Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC
    Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement,
    or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change
    the last two sentences of Section 2.09(c) or change Section 2.19(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the ratable reduction of Commitments or the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written
    consent of each Lender, (v) change the payment waterfall provisions of Section 2.21(b) or 7.03 without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees of the Guarantors under the
    Guaranty and Collateral Agreement or all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as expressly provided for in the Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition
    of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each
    Lender or (viii) permit Loans in any currency other than Dollars without the written consent of each Lender; provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative
    Agent or the Issuing Banks hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be; and provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend or modify the provisions of Section
      2.06 without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks.

  (c)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Loan Document may
    be amended, modified, supplemented or waived with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender if such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver is executed and delivered in
    order to (i) cure an ambiguity, omission, mistake or defect in such Loan Document, (ii) make administrative and operational changes not adverse to any Lender or (iii) adhere to local law or the reasonable advice of local counsel; provided, that
    in connection with this paragraph (c), in no event will the Administrative Agent be required to substitute its judgment for the judgment of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent may in all
    circumstances seek the approval of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable, in connection with any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver.

   

  (d)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of
    any Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may (in their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new
    agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law
    to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law.

   

  Section 9.03         Expenses; Limitation of Liability;
      Indemnity, Etc.

   

  (a)          Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all
    reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates including the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel for the Administrative
    Agent, the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates as a whole, one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction (including any relevant non-U.S. jurisdiction) for the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates as a whole and
    one special maritime counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates as a whole), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement
    and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket
    expenses incurred by any Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent,

    connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 9.03, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred

    115

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          Limitation of Liability. To the extent
    permitted by applicable law (i) Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower and any Loan Party shall not assert, and Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Arranger,
    any Issuing Bank and any Lender, and any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called a “Lender-Related Person”) for any Liabilities arising from the use by others of information or other materials (including,
    without limitation, any personal data) obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), and (ii) no party hereto shall assert, and each such party hereby waives, any Liabilities against
    any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any
    agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this Section 9.03(b) shall relieve Parent, the General Partner, the
    Borrower and each other Loan Party of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee, as provided in Section 9.03(c), against any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party.

   

  (c)          Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify the
    Administrative Agent, each Arranger, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
    Liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of
    this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any
    other transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection
    with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iv) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property (including Vessels) owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its
    Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (v) any actual or prospective Proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not such Proceeding is brought by Parent, the General
    Partner, the Borrower or any other Loan Party or its or their respective equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other third Person and whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party
    thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such Liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted
    primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 9.03(c) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

  
    116

    
      
 

  

   

  (d)          Lender Reimbursement. Each Lender severally
    agrees to pay any amount required to be paid by the Borrower under paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 9.03 to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons
    (each, an “Agent-Related Person”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Applicable Percentage in effect on the date on which such
    payment is sought under this Section (or, if such payment is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Applicable Percentage immediately prior to
    such date), and agrees to indemnify and hold each Agent-Related Person harmless from and against any and all Liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or
    after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent-Related Person 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-Related Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that the unreimbursed expense or Liability
    or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent-Related Person in its capacity as such; provided further that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such Liabilities, costs, expenses
    or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent-Related Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 9.03
    shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

   

  (e)          Payments. All amounts due under this Section

      9.03 shall be payable not later than two (2) Business Days after written demand therefor.

   

  Section 9.04         Successors and Assigns.

   

  (a)          The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon
    and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer
    any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its
    rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.04. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns
    permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in Section 9.04(c)) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
    Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

   

  (b)                

   

  (i)          Subject to the conditions set forth in Section
      9.04(b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible Institution) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, participations in Letters of
    Credit and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of:

   

  (A)              the Borrower; provided that,
    the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment of all or a portion of the Loans and Commitments of such Lender unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after
    having received notice thereof; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee
    (other than an Ineligible Institution);

  
    117

    
      
 

  

   

  (B)              the Administrative Agent; provided
    that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to an assignee that is a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), an Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund; and

   

  (C)              each Issuing Bank; provided
    that no consent of any Issuing Bank shall be required for an assignment to an assignee that is a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), an Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund.

   

  (ii)         Assignments shall be subject to the following
    additional conditions:

   

  (A)              except in the case of an assignment
    to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment
    (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 and shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof unless each of the
    Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

   

  (B)              each partial assignment shall be made
    as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
    Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of its Commitments or Loans;

   

  (C)              the parties to each assignment shall
    execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the
    Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

   

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

   

  For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” and “Ineligible Institution” have the following meanings:

   

  “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in
    bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

   

  “Ineligible Institution” means (a) a natural person, (b) a Defaulting Lender or its Lender Parent, (c) a holding company,
    investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof, (d) any Disqualified Institution or (e) the Borrower or any of its Affiliates; provided that, with respect to clause (c),
    such holding company, investment vehicle or trust shall not constitute an Ineligible Institution if it (i) has not been established for the primary purpose of acquiring any Loans or Commitments, (ii) is managed by a professional advisor, who is not
    such natural person or a relative thereof, having significant experience in the business of making or purchasing commercial loans, and (iii) has assets greater than $25,000,000 and a significant part of its activities consist of making or purchasing
    commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business.

  
    118

    
      
 

  

   

  (iii)        Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant
    to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption,
    have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
    case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17,
    2.18 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in
    such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

   

  (iv)        The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as
    a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal
    amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
    the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be
    available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

   

  (v)         Upon its receipt of (i) a duly completed Assignment
    and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or (ii) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and
    the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of
    this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided
    that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(d), the Administrative Agent shall
    have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for
    purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

  
    119

    
      
 

  

   

  (c)          Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to,
    the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Banks, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible Institution, in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under
    this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
    parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and
    obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or
    waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso
    to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including
    the requirements under Sections 2.18(f) and (g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.18(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender and the information and documentation required under Section
      2.18(g) will be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.04(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees
    to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 as if it were an assignee under Section 9.04(b); and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 or 2.18, with respect to any participation,
    than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that
    sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.20(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each
    Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.19(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a
    participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest
    in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any
    Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that
    such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender
    shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its
    capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

   

  (d)          Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security
    interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or
    assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

   

  (e)           Disqualified Institutions.

   

  (i)          No assignment or participation shall be made to any
    Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person
    (unless the Borrower has consented to such assignment in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of
    doubt, with respect to any assignee that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of
    “Disqualified Institution”), (x) such assignee shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and (y) the execution by the Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee
    no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment in violation of this clause (e)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (e) shall apply; provided that any assignment to any Person,
    including a Disqualified Institution, made without the consent of the Borrower shall be invalid if the Borrower’s consent is required for such assignment under this Section 9.04.

  
    120

    
      
 

  

   

  (ii)         If any assignment or participation is made to any
    Disqualified Institution without the Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon
    notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Commitment of such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such
    Commitment, and/or (B) require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 9.04), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to
    one or more assignees that is not an Ineligible Institution at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus
    accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder.

   

  (iii)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
    in this Agreement, Disqualified Institutions (A) will not have the right to (x) receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower, any other Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any
    other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the
    Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or
    refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter, and
    (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization or liquidation under applicable debtor relief laws, each Disqualified Institution party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan, (2) if such Disqualified Institution does vote on such
    plan notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other applicable
    debtor relief laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other applicable debtor
    relief laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the applicable bankruptcy court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).

   

  (iv)        The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and
    the Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by the Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) on the Approved Electronic
    Platform, including that portion of the Approved Electronic Platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender requesting the same.

  Section 9.05          Survival; Reinstatement.

   

  (a)          All covenants, agreements, representations and
    warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the other Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon by
    the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding
    that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as
    the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The
    provisions of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the
    Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

   

  (b)          To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the
    Borrower or any other Loan Party is made to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part
    thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a
    trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any applicable debtor relief laws or otherwise, then (i) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived
    and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (ii) each Lender and each Issuing Bank severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without
    duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the NYFRB Rate from time to time in effect.

   

  Section 9.06         Counterparts; Integration;
      Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

   

  (a)          This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by
    different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with
    respect to (i) fees payable to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the reductions of the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all
    previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the
    Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective

  (b)          Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature
    page of (i) this Agreement, (ii) any other Loan Document and/or (iii) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 9.01), certificate, request,
    statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed
    pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable.
    The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of
    records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as
    a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or
    format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (A) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the
    Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or any other Loan Party without further verification thereof and without
    any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic signature and (B) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without
    limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower and each Loan Party hereby (w) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies,
    bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower and the Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces
    an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (x) the
    Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created
    in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper
    record), (y) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement,
    such other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (z) waives any claim against any Lender-Related Person for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s
    and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result of
    the failure of Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower and/or any Loan Party to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

   

  Section 9.07         Severability. Any provision of this
    Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of
    the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

   

  Section 9.08         Right of Setoff. If an Event of
    Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to setoff and apply any and all
    deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held, and other obligations at any time owing, by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any
    and all of the obligations of such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, Issuing Bank or
    Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch office or Affiliate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank
    different from the branch office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so setoff shall be paid over
    immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.21 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the
    benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to
    which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank
    or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
    validity of such setoff and application.

  Section 9.12         Confidentiality. Each of the
    Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents,
    including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to
    the extent requested by any Governmental Authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal
    process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or
    under any other Loan Document, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.12, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights
    or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their obligations, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any
    rating agency in connection with rating Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided for herein or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of
    identification numbers with respect to the credit facilities provided for herein, (h) with the consent of the Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (ii) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.12

  Section 9.13         Material Non-Public Information.

   

  (a)           EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED
    IN SECTION 9.12 FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING PARENT, THE GENERAL PARTNER, THE BORROWER, ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES,
    AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND
    STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

   

  (b)          ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND
    AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY PARENT, THE BORROWER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT PARENT, THE GENERAL
    PARTNER, THE BORROWER, ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A

  Section 9.14         Interest Rate Limitation.
    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”),
    shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan
    hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the
    operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest
    thereon at the NYFRB Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

   

  Section 9.15         No Fiduciary Duty, etc.

   

  (a)          Each of Parent and the Borrower acknowledges and
    agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity of an
    arm’s length contractual counterparty to Parent and the Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated herein and therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, Parent, the Borrower or any other
    person. Parent and the Borrower each agree that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
    Additionally, Parent and the Borrower each acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party is advising Parent or the Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. Each of Parent and the
    Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated herein or in the other Loan Documents, and the Credit Parties
    shall have no responsibility or liability to Parent or the Borrower with respect thereto.

  
    126

    
      
 

  

   

  (b)          Each of Parent and the Borrower further acknowledges
    and agrees, and acknowledges their Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party, together with its Affiliates, is a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment
    banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt
    and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, Parent, the Borrower and other companies with which Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries may have commercial or other
    relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit Party or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the
    holder of the rights, in its sole discretion.

   

  (c)          In addition, each of Parent and the Borrower
    acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges their Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party and its Affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in
    respect of which Parent, the General Partner, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. No Credit Party will use confidential information obtained from Parent, the General
    Partner, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other relationships with the Borrower in connection with the performance by such Credit Party of services for other companies, and no
    Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. Each of Parent and the Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to
    Parent or the Borrower, confidential information obtained from other companies.

   

  Section 9.16         USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is
    subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (the “Patriot Act”) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the
    Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

   

  Section 9.17         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 may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

   

  (a)          the application of any Write-Down and Conversion
    Powers by an the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

   

  (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;

  
    127

    
      
 

  

   

  (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.

   

  Section 9.18         Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported
      QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”),
    the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
    (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported
    QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

   

  In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S.
    Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC
    or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and
    rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default
    Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised
    under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and
    remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

   

  Section 9.19         Judgment Currency. If, for the
    purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures
    the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent
    or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement
    (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative
    Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the
    Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such
    loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in such Agreement Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the
    amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

  
    128

    
      
 

  

   

  Section 9.20         Release of Collateral and Guarantors.

   

  (a)          In the event that any (i) Loan Party conveys, sells,
    leases, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or any portion of its assets (including the Equity Interests of any of its Subsidiaries) to a Person that is not (and is not required to become) a Loan Party in a transaction not prohibited by the
    Loan Documents or (ii) any assets or property of any Loan Party are no longer required to constitute Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, the Liens under the Loan Documents on such assets shall automatically be released and the
    Administrative Agent shall promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower and at the Borrower’s expense to evidence such automatic
    release of the Liens created by the Loan Documents in respect of such assets or property.

   

  (b)          In the event a Loan Party becomes an Unrestricted
    Subsidiary, becomes an Excluded Subsidiary, or otherwise would not be required to be a Guarantor after the Effective Date in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, such Loan Party shall automatically be released from its Guarantee of the
    Obligations, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower, all at the Borrower’s sole expense,
    to evidence such Subsidiary’s automatic release from its Guarantee.

   

  (c)          The Collateral Documents, the Guarantees made therein,
    the Liens created thereby and all other security interests granted thereby shall terminate, and each Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations thereunder and the security interests in the Collateral granted by any Loan Party shall
    be automatically released, when the Commitments have expired or terminated and the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash (other than any indemnification and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim has
    been made at such time) and all Letters of Credit have expired or terminated, in each case, without any pending draw (or arrangements otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank in respect thereof have been made), and all LC
    Disbursements shall have been reimbursed. At such time, the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Borrower at the Borrower’s expense to evidence and effectuate such termination and release of the
    Guarantees, Liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents.

   

  (d)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan
    Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to release any Collateral or Guarantees under any Loan Document unless it shall have first received, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has requested the same, a certificate from a
    Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that such release is permitted under the Loan Documents, and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Borrower as to whether such release is
    permitted. Any such certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Borrower shall be full warranty and protection to the Administrative Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan
    Documents.

  
    129

    
      
 

  

   

  Section 9.21         Currency Conversion. All payments
    under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, except for reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit issued in any Specified Currency, which shall be repaid, including accrued interest thereon, in the
    applicable currency. If any payment, whether through payment by any Loan Party or the proceeds of any Collateral, shall be made in a currency other than the currency required hereunder, such amount shall be converted into the currency required
    hereunder at the rate determined by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, as the rate quoted by it in accordance with methods customarily used by such Person for such or similar purposes as the spot rate for the
    purchase by such Person of the required currency with the currency of actual payment through its principal foreign exchange trading office at approximately 11:00 a.m. (local time at such office) two Business Days prior to the effective date of such
    conversion; provided that the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, may obtain such spot rate from another financial institution actively engaged in foreign currency exchange if the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank,
    as applicable, does not then have a spot rate for the required currency. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto hereby affirm and agree that neither the fixing of the conversion rate of Pound Sterling against the Euro as a single currency, in
    accordance with the applicable treaties establishing the European Economic Community and the European Union, as the case may be, in each case, as amended from time to time, nor the conversion of the reimbursement obligations with respect to applicable
    Letters of Credit under this Agreement from Pound Sterling into Euros will be a reason for early termination or revision of this Agreement or prepayment of any amount due under this Agreement or create any liability of any party hereto towards any
    other party hereto for any direct or consequential loss arising from any of these events. As of the date that Pound Sterling is no longer the lawful currency of the United Kingdom, all reimbursement obligations with respect to applicable Letters of
    Credit to be made in Pound Sterling under this Agreement shall be satisfied in Euros.

   

  Section 9.22         Exchange Rates.

   

  (a)          Determination of Exchange Rates. Not later than
    2:00 p.m. (London time) on each Calculation Date, if any LC Exposures are outstanding on such date in a Specified Currency, the applicable Issuing Bank shall determine the Exchange Rate(s) as of such Calculation Date for all such LC Exposures
    outstanding as of such date with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank or its Affiliates and give prompt notice thereof to the Administrative Agent. No later than 4:00 p.m. (London time) on each such Calculation Date, the
    Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Exchange Rates so determined shall become effective on the first Business Day immediately following the relevant Calculation Date (a “Reset Date”), shall remain
    effective until the next succeeding Reset Date, and shall for all purposes of this Agreement (other than Sections 9.19, 9.21 or any other provision expressly requiring the use of a current Exchange Rate) be the Exchange Rates employed
    in determining the Dollar Equivalents of any amounts of any Specified Currencies for all such LC Exposures with respect to all such Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Banks in a Specified Currency. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
    contrary, if any Issuing Bank fails to timely deliver notice of its Exchange Rate(s) to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.22, the Administrative Agent may determine such rate in the same manner as provided in
    the definition of “Exchange Rate” and shall have no liability to such Issuing Bank for such determination.

   

  (b)          Notice of Specified Currency Letters of Credit.
    Not later than 2:00 p.m. (London time) on each Reset Date and each date on which Letters of Credit denominated in any Specified Currency are made or issued, if any such LC Exposures are outstanding on such date, the applicable Issuing Bank shall
    determine its Exchange Rate(s) as of such date, if applicable, and give prompt notice thereof to the Administrative Agent. Not later than 5:00 p.m. (London time) on each Reset Date and each date on which Letters of Credit denominated in any Specified
    Currency are made or issued, the Administrative Agent shall (i) determine the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amounts of the LC Exposures denominated in such currencies (after giving effect to any Letters of Credit denominated in such
    Specified Currencies being made, issued, increased, repaid, or cancelled or reduced on such date), (ii) notify the Lenders and the Borrower of the results of such determination and (iii) notify the applicable Issuing Bank, if applicable, that the
    conditions to issuance or increase set forth in Section 2.06 are satisfied.

  Section 9.23         Certain Belgian Law Provisions. Each
    Credit Party agrees that the Administrative Agent shall be the joint creditor (“hoofdelijke schuldeiser”) in its own right and not as representative of the other Credit Parties, together with each other Credit Party of each liability and
    obligation of the Loan Parties towards any Credit Parties under any Loan Documents (the “Parallel Debt”), and that accordingly the Administrative Agent will have its own independent and separate right to demand performance by the Loan Parties of
    those liabilities and obligations.  Without limiting or affecting the Administrative Agent’s rights against the Loan Parties (whether under this Article or under any other provision of the Loan Documents), the Administrative Agent agrees with each
    other Credit Party (on a several and separate basis) that, subject as set out in the next sentence, it will not exercise its rights as a joint creditor with a Credit Party except with the consent of the relevant Credit Party or group of Credit Parties,
    as the case may be.  However, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in the previous sentence shall in any way limit the Administrative Agent’s right to act in the protection or preservation of rights under or to enforce any Loan Documents (or to do any
    act reasonably incidental to any of the foregoing).  Subject to the provisions of Section 8.04, the Administrative Agent holds any Lien created by a Loan Document in its name in its capacity as creditor of the Parallel Debt and shall not be
    held on trust, and the Administrative Agent shall have full and unrestricted title to and authority in respect of that security, subject always to the terms of the Loan Documents. Each Credit Party (other than Administrative Agent) hereby appoints the
    Administrative Agent to act as its agent or security agent and/or beneficiary of the Parallel Debt (as the case may be) under and in connection with the Loan Documents and, in connection with the Belgian law Loan Documents, as its representative in
    accordance with Article 5 of the Belgian Financial Collateral Act of 15 December 2004 on financial collateral and Article 3 of the Belgian Security Interests Act of 11 July 2013 on in rem security interests over movable assets.

   

  Section 9.24         Administrative Agent as Agent Under
      Foreign Law Collateral Documents. Each Credit Party agrees that the Administrative Agent may act as an agent, security agent, security trustee or similar capacity for the Secured Parties under Collateral Documents governed by non-U.S. law and
    each Credit Party hereby appoints the Administrative Agent to act in each such relevant capacity under any such Collateral Documents. Each of the Credit Parties, Parent and the Borrower hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent shall hold all rights,
    privileges and indemnities to which it in entitled in its capacity as Administrative Agent under this Agreement (including Article VIII and Section 9.03) and the other Loan Documents in such capacity under such Collateral Documents.
