 SECOND LIEN LOAN AGREEMENT dated as of October 9, 2015, among SUNOPTA FOODS INC., a Delaware
corporation (the “Borrower”), SUNOPTA INC., a Canadian corporation and direct parent company of the Borrower (“Holdings”), CERTAIN SUBSIDIARIES OF HOLDINGS, the lending institutions from time to time parties hereto
(each a “Lender” and, collectively, the “Lenders”) and BANK OF MONTREAL, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent (such terms and each other capitalized term used but not defined in this preamble having the
meaning provided in Section 1 hereto). 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of July 30, 2015
(together with all exhibits and schedules thereto, the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”), among Holdings, the Borrower, Shine Seller Rep, LLC and the Sellers named (and as defined) therein (collectively, the “Seller”),
Holdings will, directly or indirectly, acquire from the Seller all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Sunrise Holdings (Delaware), Inc. (the “Acquisition”); 

WHEREAS, in connection with the foregoing, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders extend credit in the form of Senior Interim Loans to
the Borrower on the Closing Date, in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount of $330,000,000; 
 WHEREAS, the net proceeds of the Senior
Interim Loans and other funds as described in the definition of the term “Transactions” will be used on the Closing Date to consummate the Acquisition, to effect the Debt Repayments and to pay Transaction Expenses; and 

WHEREAS, the Borrower intends to issue under one or more senior indentures among the Borrower, the guarantors thereunder and a trustee
(collectively, the “Senior Take-out Notes Indenture”), $330,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2022 (the “Senior Take-out Notes”) pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Senior Take-out Notes Offering”). 
 WHEREAS, the Guarantors have
agreed to guarantee the obligations of the Borrower hereunder. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants and
agreements contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
  

	 	SECTION 1.	Definitions 

 1.1. Defined Terms. 

(a) As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings specified in this Section 1.1 unless the context otherwise
requires (it being understood that defined terms in this Agreement shall include in the singular number the plural and in the plural the singular): 

“ABL Collateral Agent” shall mean Bank of Montreal, in its capacity as “Agent” under the North American ABL
Facility and any successor thereto in such capacity. 
 “ABL Debt” shall mean the principal amount of: 

(1) Indebtedness of the Borrower and any Guarantor outstanding under the North American ABL Facility on the date of this
Agreement or incurred from time to time after the date of this Agreement under the North American ABL Facility; and 







 (2) additional Indebtedness (including letters of credit and reimbursement
obligations with respect thereto) of the Borrower or any Guarantor which is or would have been secured equally and ratably with the Indebtedness described in clause (1) by senior Liens on Collateral that were permitted to be incurred and
secured under each applicable ABL Debt Document and Parity Lien Document; provided, in the case of any additional Indebtedness referred to in this clause (2), that: 

(A) on or before the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred by the Borrower or such Guarantor, as applicable,
such additional Indebtedness is designated by the Borrower, in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Collateral Agent, as “ABL Debt” for purposes of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents; provided, that such
Indebtedness may not be designated as both ABL Debt and Additional Parity Debt; and 
 (B) the collateral agent or other
representative with respect to such Indebtedness, the ABL Collateral Agent and each other First Lien Collateral Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), the Collateral Agent and each other Second Lien Collateral Agent (as defined in the
Intercreditor Agreement), the Borrower and each applicable Guarantor have duly executed and delivered the Intercreditor Agreement (or a joinder to the Intercreditor Agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to each of the parties thereto). For the
avoidance of doubt, Permitted Bank Product Obligations and capitalized interest, fees, costs and other charges will not be treated as “ABL Debt.” 

“ABL Debt Documents” shall mean the North American ABL Facility, any additional credit agreement or indenture related thereto
or to any other ABL Debt Obligations and all other loan documents, security documents, notes, guarantees, instruments and agreements governing or evidencing, or executed or delivered in connection with, the North American ABL Facility or any other
ABL Debt Obligations, as such agreements or instruments may be amended or supplemented from time to time. 
 “ABL Debt
Obligations” shall mean (i) ABL Debt incurred or arising under the ABL Debt Documents and (ii) Permitted Bank Product Obligations that are secured, or intended to be secured, under the ABL Debt Documents if the provider of such
Permitted Bank Product Obligations has agreed to be bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or such provider’s interest in the Collateral is subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

“ABL Facilities” shall mean the North American ABL Facility and the European ABL Facility. 

“ABR” shall mean for any day a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate
plus  1⁄2 of 1%, (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the Administrative Agent as its “prime
rate”, (c) the LIBOR Rate for a one-month Interest Period on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1.0% and (d) 2.00%; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, for
purposes of calculating the LIBOR Rate pursuant to clause (c) above, the LIBOR Rate for any day shall be based on the rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such day by
reference to the rate appearing on the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or any successor page or any successor service, or any substitute page or substitute for such service, providing rate quotations comparable to the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page, as
determined by the Administrative Agent from time to time for purposes of providing quotations of interest rates applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market) for a period equal to one-month. The “prime rate” is a rate set
by the Administrative Agent based upon various factors, including the Administrative Agent’s costs and desired return, general economic conditions and other factors, and is used as a reference point for pricing some


  
 -2- 








 
loans, which may be priced at, above, or below such announced rate. Any change in the ABR due to a change in such rate announced by the Administrative Agent, in the Federal Funds Effective Rate
or in the one-month LIBOR Rate shall take effect at the opening of business on the day specified in the public announcement of such change. 

“ABR Loan” shall mean each Senior Interim Loan bearing interest based on the ABR. 

“Acceptable Commitment” shall have the meaning provided in Section 9.8(b) hereof. 

“Acquired Indebtedness” shall mean, with respect to any specified Person, 

(1) Indebtedness of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged or consolidated with or into or became a
Restricted Subsidiary of such specified Person, including Indebtedness incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such other Person merging or consolidating with or into or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of such specified Person, and

 (2) Indebtedness secured by a Lien encumbering any asset acquired by such specified Person. 

“Acquisition” shall have the meaning provided in the preamble to this Agreement. 

“Additional Parity Debt” shall mean any additional Secured Indebtedness that ranks pari passu with the Loans and is
permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 9.7; provided that (i) the representative of such Additional Parity Debt executes a joinder agreement to the Intercreditor Agreement and, if applicable, to the other Collateral
Documents, in each case in the form attached thereto, agreeing to be bound thereby, and delivers the joinder to the Intercreditor Agreement to the ABL Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent and (ii) Holdings has designated such Indebtedness
as “Additional Parity Debt” thereunder in writing to the ABL Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent. 
 “Additional
Parity Debt Documents” shall mean any credit agreement or indenture related to any Additional Parity Debt and all other loan documents, security documents, notes, guarantees, instruments and agreements governing or evidencing, or executed
or delivered in connection with, any Additional Parity Debt. 
 “Administrative Agent” shall mean Bank of Montreal, as the
administrative agent for the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any successor administrative agent appointed in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.9. 

“Administrative Agent’s Office” shall mean the Administrative Agent’s address and, as appropriate, account as set
forth on Schedule 13.2, or such other address or account as the Administrative Agent may from time to time notify in writing to the Borrower and the Lenders.

“Affiliate” of any specified Person shall mean any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under
direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For purposes of this definition, “control” (including, with correlative meanings, the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control
with”), as used with respect to any Person, shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by
agreement or otherwise.

“Agent Parties” shall have the meaning provided in Section 13.18(d). 

“Agents” shall mean the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Joint Lead Arranger and Joint Bookrunner. 

“Agreement” shall mean this Second Lien Loan Agreement, as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from
time to time. 
 “Applicable ABR Margin” shall mean at any date, with respect to each ABR Loan, 5.00% per annum. If
the Senior Interim Loans are not paid within the three-month period following the Closing Date, the Applicable ABR Margin will increase by 0.50% per annum at the end of such three-month period and shall increase by an additional 0.50% per
annum at the end of each three-month period thereafter until the Interim Loan Conversion Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Applicable ABR Margin shall be capped such that the applicable interest rate shall not exceed the Senior Fixed Rate.

 “Applicable LIBOR Margin” shall mean at any date, with respect to each LIBOR Loan, 6.0% per annum. If the
Loans are not paid within the three-month period following the Closing Date, the Applicable LIBOR Margin will increase by 0.50% per annum at the end of such three-month period and shall increase by an additional 0.50% per
annum at the end of each three-month period thereafter until the Interim Loan Conversion Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Applicable LIBOR Margin shall be capped such that the applicable interest rate shall not exceed the Senior Fixed

and in the aggregate shall not exceed $330,000,000. 
 Such Senior Interim Loans (i) shall be incurred and maintained (except as

Lender the Senior Interim Loan Commitment of such Lender and (iv) shall not exceed in the aggregate the Total Senior Interim Loan Commitment. 

  
 -51- 








 On the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall repay all then unpaid Loans in full in Dollars. 

(b) Each Lender may at its option make any LIBOR Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan,
provided that (A) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan and (B) in exercising such option, such Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to minimize any increased costs to the
Borrower resulting therefrom (which obligation of the Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it determines would
be otherwise disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.10 hereof shall apply). 

2.2. Maximum Number of Borrowings. More than one Borrowing may be incurred on any date, provided that at no time shall there be
outstanding more than ten Borrowings of LIBOR Loans under this Agreement. 
 2.3. Notice of Borrowing. 

(a) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on
the date of Borrowing prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the Borrowing of the Senior Interim Loans. Such notice (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall specify (i) the aggregate principal
amount of the Senior Interim Loans to be borrowed (the “Senior Interim Loans Requested Amount”) (such Senior Interim Loans Requested Amount not to exceed the aggregate Senior Interim Loan Commitments of all Lenders), (ii) the

writing) of the proposed Borrowing of Senior Interim Loans, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters covered by the related Notice of Borrowing. 

(b) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any notice it may give hereunder by telephone, the
Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Officer of the Borrower. 

2.4. Disbursement of Funds. 

(a) No later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date of the Borrowing or such earlier time as may be agreed among the Lenders,
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent for the purpose of consummating the Transactions each Lender will make available its pro rata portion of each Borrowing requested. 

(b) Each Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the Borrower under the Borrowing for its applicable Senior Interim Loan
Commitments, and in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office and the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower, by depositing to an account designated by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent the aggregate of the amounts so made available in Dollars. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of the Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the
Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on the date of the Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent, in
reliance upon such 

  
 -52- 








 
assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to
the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made available such amount to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such
corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent in Dollars.
The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the
Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender, the Overnight Rate or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the then-applicable rate of
interest or fees, calculated in accordance with Section 2.8 hereof, for the respective Loans. 
 (c) Nothing in this
Section 2.4 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to, fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder (it
being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder). 

2.5. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

(a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, on the Maturity Date, the then-outstanding Loans, in
Dollars. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the
Borrower to the appropriate lending office of such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such lending office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Lender
from time to time under this Agreement. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain the Register pursuant to
Section 13.6(b)(iv) hereof, and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type of each Loan made and the Interest Period, if
any, 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
from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts maintained
pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) of this Section 2.5 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower
therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

2.6. Conversions and Continuations. 

(a) Subject to the penultimate sentence of this clause (a), (i) the Borrower shall have the option on any Business Day to convert
all or a portion equal to at least $500,000 (and multiples of 

  
 -53- 








 
$100,000 in excess thereof) of the outstanding principal amount of Senior Interim Loans of one Type into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another Type and (ii) the Borrower shall have the option
on any Business Day to continue the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Loans as LIBOR Loans for an additional Interest Period; provided that (A) no partial conversion of LIBOR Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of
LIBOR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the $500,000, (B) ABR Loans may not be converted into LIBOR Loans if an Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion and the Administrative Agent has or the Required
Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversion, (C) LIBOR Loans may not be continued as LIBOR Loans for an additional Interest Period if an Event of Default is in existence on the date of the proposed
continuation and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation, and (D) Borrowings resulting from conversions pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall
be limited in number as provided in Section 2.2. Each such conversion or continuation shall be effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City
time) at least (1) three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing), in the case of a continuation of LIBOR Loans or (2) one Business Day’s prior written notice (or telephonic notice
promptly confirmed in writing), in the case of a conversion into ABR Loans (each, a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) specifying the Senior Interim Loans to be so converted or continued, the Type of Senior Interim Loans to be
converted into or continued and, if such Senior Interim Loans are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto (if no Interest Period is selected, the Borrower shall be deemed to have
selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration). The Administrative Agent shall give each applicable Lender notice as promptly as practicable of any such proposed conversion or continuation affecting any of its Senior Interim Loans. 

(b) If any Event of Default is in existence at the time of any proposed continuation of any LIBOR Loans and the Administrative Agent has or
the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation, such LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted on the last day of the current Interest Period into ABR Loans. If upon the expiration of any
Interest Period in respect of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower has failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable thereto as provided in clause (a) above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue such Borrowing of LIBOR Loans
as a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans with an Interest Period equal to the expired Interest Period, effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period. 

2.7. Pro Rata Borrowings. Each Borrowing of Senior Interim Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders pro rata on
the basis of their then-applicable Senior Interim Loan Commitments. It is understood that (a) no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender severally but not
jointly shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder and (b) other than as expressly provided herein with respect to a Defaulting
Lender, failure by a Lender to perform any of its obligations under any of the Loan Documents shall not release any Person from performance of its obligation under any Loan Document.

unpaid principal amount of each Senior Interim Loan that is an ABR Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be equal to
the lesser of (i) the Senior Fixed Rate and (ii) the Applicable ABR Margin plus the ABR, in effect from time to time; provided that, immediately upon the occurrence of a Demand Failure Event, the interest rate on the Senior Loans
shall increase to the Senior Fixed Rate. 

  
 -54- 








 (b) The unpaid principal amount of each Senior Interim Loan that is a LIBOR Loan shall bear
interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be equal to the lesser of (i) the Senior Fixed Rate and (ii) the Applicable
LIBOR Margin plus the relevant LIBOR Rate, in each case, in effect from time to time; provided that, immediately upon the occurrence of a Demand Failure Event, the interest rate on the Senior Loans shall increase to the Senior Fixed Rate.

 (c) If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan or (ii) any interest payable thereon shall not be paid when due
(whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is (the “Default Rate”) (x) in the case of overdue principal, the rate that would otherwise
be applicable thereto plus 2% or (y) in the case of any overdue interest, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, the rate described in Section 2.8(a) hereof plus 2% from the date of such non-payment
to the date on which such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment). 
 (d) The unpaid principal amount of each Senior Term
Loan shall bear interest at the Senior Fixed Rate. 
 (e) Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to
but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable in Dollars; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same date on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. Except as provided below, interest shall be payable
(i) in respect of each ABR Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, (ii) in respect of each LIBOR Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of
an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three-month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, (iii) in respect of a Senior Term Loan, every quarter beginning with the last business day of the first
quarter following the Interim Loan Conversion Date, (iv) in respect of each Senior Interim Loan, on the Interim Loan Conversion Date and (v) in respect of each Loan, (A) on any prepayment (on the amount prepaid), (B) at maturity
(whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (C) after such maturity, on demand. 
 (f) All computations of interest hereunder shall be
made in accordance with Section 5.5 hereof. 
 (g) The Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any
Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto. 

2.9. Interest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation in respect of the
making of, or conversion into or continuation as, a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans in accordance with Section 2.6(a), the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the
Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower be a one, two, three or six-month period or (if available to all the Lenders making such LIBOR Loans as determined by such Lenders in good faith
based on prevailing market conditions) any period shorter than one month requested by the Borrower. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained above: 
 (a) the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans shall commence on the date of
such Borrowing (including the date of any conversion from a Borrowing of ABR Loans) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires; 

  
 -55- 








 (b) if any Interest Period relating to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans begins on the
last Business Day of a calendar month or begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month at
the end of such Interest Period; 
 (c) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day,
such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day, provided that if any Interest Period in respect of a LIBOR Loan would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further
Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day; and 
 (d) the
Borrower shall not be entitled to elect any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR Loan if such Interest Period would extend beyond the Interim Loan Conversion Date. 

2.10. Increased Costs, Illegality, Etc. 

(a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the Required Lenders or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and
(iii) below, any Lender, shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto): 

(i) on any date for determining the LIBOR Rate for any Interest Period prior to the earlier of (x) the occurrence of a
Demand Failure Event and (y) the Interim Loan Conversion Date that (A) deposits in the principal amounts of the Senior Interim Loans comprising such LIBOR Borrowing are not generally available in the relevant market or (B) by reason
of any changes arising on or after the Closing Date affecting the interbank LIBOR market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR Rate; or 

(ii) that, due to a Change in Law occurring at any time or after the Closing Date and prior to the earlier of (x) the
occurrence of a Demand Failure Event and (y) the Interim Loan Conversion Date, which Change in Law shall (A) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against
assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender, (B) subject any Lender to any Tax with respect to any Loan Document or any LIBOR Loan made by it (other than (i) Taxes indemnifiable under
Section 5.4 or (ii) Excluded Taxes), or (C) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Loans made by such Lender, which results
in the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining LIBOR Loans hereunder increasing by an amount which such Lender reasonably deems material or the amounts received or receivable by such Lender hereunder with respect to
the foregoing shall be reduced; or 
 (iii) at any time prior to the earlier of (x) the occurrence of a Demand Failure
Event and (y) the Interim Loan Conversion Date, that the making or continuance of any LIBOR Loan has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Requirement of Law (or would conflict with any such Requirement
of Law not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful); 

  
 -56- 








 then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above)
shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice (if by telephone, confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other
Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, LIBOR Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the
Administrative Agent no longer exist (which notice the Administrative Agent agrees to give at such time when such circumstances no longer exist), and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion given by the Borrower with respect to LIBOR Loans
that have not yet been incurred shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, promptly (but no later than fifteen days) after receipt of written demand therefor such
additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (it being agreed that a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable
detail the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the
Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by applicable Requirements of Law. 

(b) At any time that any LIBOR Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), the
Borrower may (and in the case of a LIBOR Loan affected pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(iii) shall) either (i) if the affected LIBOR Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, cancel such Borrowing by giving the Administrative
Agent telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the Borrower was notified by a Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii) or (ii) if the affected LIBOR Loan is then outstanding,
upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert each such LIBOR Loan into an ABR Loan; provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must
be treated in the same manner pursuant to this Section 2.10(b). 
 (c) If, after the Closing Date and prior to the earlier of
(x) the occurrence of a Demand Failure Event and (y) the Interim Loan Conversion Date, any Change in Law relating to capital adequacy or liquidity of any Lender or compliance by any Lender or its parent with any Change in Law relating to
capital adequacy or liquidity occurring after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent’s capital or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments or
obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its parent could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its parent’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time
to time, promptly (but in any event no later than fifteen days) after written demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or
its parent for such reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender’s compliance with, or pursuant to any request or directive to comply with, any
applicable Requirement of Law as in effect on the Closing Date. Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the
Borrower, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not, subject to Section 2.13, release or diminish the Borrower’s
obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) upon receipt of such notice. 
 2.11.
Compensation. If (a) any payment of principal of any LIBOR Loan is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan as a result of a payment or conversion
pursuant to Sections 2.5, 2.6, 2.10, 5.1, 5.2 or 13.7, as 

  
 -57- 








 
a result of acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 11 or for any other reason, (b) any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans is not made on the date specified in a
Notice of Borrowing, (c) any ABR Loan is not converted into a LIBOR Loan on the date specified in a Notice of Conversion or Continuation, (d) any LIBOR Loan is not continued as a LIBOR Loan on the date specified in a Notice of Conversion
or Continuation or (e) any prepayment of principal of any LIBOR Loan is not made as a result of a withdrawn notice of prepayment pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, the Borrower shall after the Borrower’s receipt of a
written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), pay to the Administrative Agent (within fifteen days after such request) for the account of such Lender any amounts required to
compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that such Lender may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, failure to convert, failure to continue or failure to prepay, including any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss
of anticipated profits) actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such LIBOR Loan. 

2.12. Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of
Section 2.10(a)(ii), 2.10(a)(iii), 2.10(c) or 5.4 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate
another lending office for any Loans affected by such event; provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the
consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Section 2.10
or 5.4. 
 2.13. Notice of Certain Costs. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any
notice required by Section 2.10, 2.11 or 5.4 is given by any Lender more than 180 days after such Lender has knowledge (or should have had knowledge) of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the
additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, tax or other additional amounts described in such Sections, such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation under Section 2.10, 2.11 or 5.4, as the case may be, for any
such amounts incurred or accruing prior to the 181st day prior to the giving of such notice to the Borrower; provided that if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above
shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. For the purposes of this Section 2.13, a Lender does not have knowledge (and should not have knowledge) of the occurrence of an event giving rise to any Tax until
such Lender is reasonably able to determine (or should have been able to determine) that such event did actually trigger such Tax. 
 2.14.
Permanent Refinancing. 
 (a) On the Interim Loan Conversion Date, all outstanding Senior Interim Loans shall be automatically
converted into term loans (each, a “Senior Term Loan”) having an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Senior Interim Loans, in each case to the extent such Loans are not repaid in whole or in part
in cash on or prior to such date and no Event of Default under Section 11.1(I)(f) or Section 11.1(I)(g), in each case with respect to the Borrower, shall have occurred and be continuing; and 

(b) (i) On the 1st and/or 15th
day of each calendar month (each, an “Exchange Date”), or if such day is not a Business Day, the preceding Business Day, on or after the Interim Loan Conversion Date, but in any event no more than three times in each fiscal quarter,
at the option of the applicable Lender, the Senior Term Loans may be exchanged in whole or in part for one or more Senior Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Senior Term Loans; provided,
however, that the Borrower shall not be required to issue Senior Notes in each case until 

  
 -58- 








 
the Borrower shall have received requests to issue at least $50,000,000 in aggregate principal amount (or if the aggregate principal amount of Senior Term Loans outstanding at such time is less
than $50,000,000, such lesser aggregate principal amount of Senior Term Loans outstanding at such time) of Senior Notes and that the amount of Senior Term Loans exchanged for Senior Notes in any exchange request must be in excess of $50,000,000 in
principal amount (or if the aggregate principal amount of Senior Term Loans outstanding at such time is less than $50,000,000, must be equal to such lesser aggregate principal amount of Senior Term Loans outstanding at such time). 

(ii) Such Lender shall provide the Borrower prior irrevocable written notice of such election (each such notice, an
“Exchange Notice”), substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, at least five Business Days prior to the date of exchange. The Exchange Notice shall specify the principal amount of Senior Term Loans to be exchanged
and, subject to the terms of the Senior Refinancing Indenture, the name of the proposed registered holder and the amount of each Senior Note requested. Senior Term Loans exchanged for Senior Notes pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be
deemed repaid and canceled, and the Senior Notes so issued shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the provisions of the Senior Refinancing Indenture. The Senior Notes shall be issued in the form set forth in the Senior Refinancing
Indenture. 
 (iii) As more particularly provided in the Senior Refinancing Indenture, (A) Senior Notes issued pursuant
to the Senior Refinancing Indenture shall bear interest at the Senior Fixed Rate and (B) Senior Notes issued pursuant to the Senior Refinancing Indenture (I) shall mature on October 9, 2022 and (II) shall be redeemable as set
forth in the Senior Refinancing Indenture and the Senior Notes attached thereto. 
 (iv) Not later than five Business Days
after the Exchange Date following delivery of any Exchange Notice, the Borrower shall (A) deliver a written notice to the trustee under the Senior Refinancing Indenture (the “Trustee”), directing such Trustee to authenticate
and deliver Senior Notes as specified in the Exchange Notice and (B) use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect delivery of such Senior Notes to the requesting Lender. 

(c) The Borrower agrees that as a condition to the effectiveness of the exchange of Senior Term Loans for Senior Notes: 

(i) The Borrower shall have selected a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Lenders to act as Trustee. 

(ii) The Borrower shall have issued the Senior Notes pursuant to the Senior Refinancing Indenture substantially in the
applicable form set forth therein, and the Borrower and each Guarantor shall have executed and delivered the Senior Refinancing Indenture. 

(iii) The Borrower and each Guarantor shall have provided to the Administrative Agent copies of resolutions of its board of
directors approving the execution and delivery of the Senior Refinancing Indenture and, in the case of the Borrower, the issuance of the Senior Notes, together with a customary certificate of the secretary of the Borrower or such Guarantor
certifying such resolutions. 
 (d) If the foregoing conditions set forth in Section 2.14(c) hereof are not satisfied with
respect to a particular Exchange Notice, then the Lenders of the applicable Senior Term Loans shall retain all of their rights and remedies with respect to such Senior Term Loans pursuant to this Agreement until such conditions are satisfied and
such Senior Term Loans are so exchanged for Senior Notes, subject to Section 13.1(b). The Borrower agrees to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 2.14(c) hereof no later than ten Business Days after receipt of the
first Exchange Notice, subject to the proviso in Section 2.14(b)(i). 
 (e) Nothing in this Section 2.14 shall prevent or
limit the ability of the Borrower from repaying or refinancing the Loans in any other manner not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement.

	 	SECTION 3.	[Reserved] 

  

	 	SECTION 4.	Fees; Commitments 

 4.1. Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Borrower agrees to
pay to the Administrative Agent the administrative agent fees in the amounts and on the dates as set forth in writing from time to time between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. 

4.2. Mandatory Termination of Commitments. The Senior Interim Loan Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time)
on the Closing Date. 
  

	 	SECTION 5.	Payments 

 5.1. Voluntary Prepayments. 

(a) The Borrower shall have the right to prepay Loans without premium or penalty, in whole or in part from time to time on the following terms
and conditions: (a) the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of its intent to make such prepayment, the amount of such
prepayment and (in the case of LIBOR Loans) the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made, which notice shall be given by the Borrower no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) (i) in the case of LIBOR Loans, three Business Days
prior to or (ii) in the case of ABR Loans or Senior Term Loans, one Business Day prior to, the date of such prepayment; (b) each partial prepayment of (i) any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and in
multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) any ABR Loans or Senior Term Loans shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, provided that no partial prepayment of LIBOR Loans made
pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding LIBOR Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than $5,000,000 and (c) any prepayment of LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section 5.1 on any day other than the
last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto shall be subject to compliance by the Borrower with the applicable provisions of Section 2.11 hereof. At the Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this
Section 5.1, such prepayment shall not be applied to any Loan of a Defaulting Lender. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may prepay the outstanding Loans on the following basis: 

(i) The Borrower shall have the right to make a voluntary prepayment of Loans at a discount to par (such prepayment, the
“Discounted Loan Prepayment”) pursuant to a Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment made in accordance with this Section 5.1(b); provided that the Borrower shall not initiate any action under this
Section 5.1(b) in order to make a Discounted Loan Prepayment unless (I) at least ten (10) Business Days shall have passed since the consummation of the most recent Discounted Loan Prepayment as a result of a prepayment made by
the Borrower on the applicable Discounted Prepayment Effective Date; or (II) at least three (3) Business Days shall have passed since the date the Borrower was notified that no Lender was willing to accept any prepayment of any Loan at the
Specified Discount. 

  
 -60- 








 (ii) Subject to the proviso to subsection (i) above, the Borrower may from
time to time offer to make a Discounted Loan Prepayment by providing the Auction Agent with three (3) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Specified Discount Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such offer shall be made
available, at the sole discretion of the Borrower, to each Lender, (II) any such offer shall specify the aggregate principal amount offered to be prepaid (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Amount”) and the specific percentage
discount to par (the “Specified Discount”) of such Loans to be prepaid, (III) the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof
and (IV) each such offer shall remain outstanding through the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each Lender with a copy of such Specified Discount Prepayment Notice and a form of the Specified
Discount Prepayment Response to be completed and returned by each such Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the
Lenders (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date”). 
 (iii) Each Lender receiving such offer shall
notify the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date whether or not it agrees to accept a prepayment of any of its relevant then outstanding Loans at the Specified Discount and, if so (such accepting Lender,
a “Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender”), the amount of such Lender’s Loans to be prepaid at such offered discount. Each acceptance of a Discounted Loan Prepayment by a Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender shall be
irrevocable. Any Lender whose Specified Discount Prepayment Response is not received by the Auction Agent by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept the applicable Borrower Offer of Specified
Discount Prepayment. 
 (iv) If there is at least one Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender, the Borrower will make prepayment
of outstanding Loans pursuant to this paragraph (b) to each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender in accordance with the respective outstanding amount and tranches of Loans specified in such Lender’s Specified Discount Prepayment Response
given pursuant to subsection (ii); provided that, if the aggregate principal amount of Loans accepted for prepayment by all Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders exceeds the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount, such prepayment shall be
made pro-rata among the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts accepted to be prepaid by each such Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with the Borrower and
subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Specified Discount Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within three
(3) Business Days following the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) the Borrower of the respective Lenders’ responses to such offer, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and the aggregate principal amount of
the Discounted Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, and the aggregate principal amount of Loans to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date and (III) each
Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender of the Specified Discount Proration, if any, and confirmation of the principal amount and Type of Loans of such Lender to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date. Each determination by the Auction Agent
of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrower
on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (v) below (subject to subsection (x) below). 

  
 -61- 








 (v) In connection with any Discounted Loan Prepayment, the Borrower and the
Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Loan Prepayment, the payment of customary fees and expenses from the Borrower in connection therewith. 

(vi) If any Term Loan is prepaid in accordance with this subsection (b), the Borrower shall prepay such Loans on the
Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. The Borrower shall make such prepayment to the Auction Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds not later
than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the remaining principal installments of the Loans on a pro rata basis across such installments. The Loans so
prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Each prepayment of the outstanding Loans pursuant to this
Section 5.1(b) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders. The aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the tranches of Loans
prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in any Discounted Loan Prepayment. 
 (vii) To the extent not expressly
provided for herein, each Discounted Loan Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent, with the provisions in this Section 5.1(b), established by the Auction Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as
reasonably agreed by the Borrower. 
 (viii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of this
Section 5.1(b), each notice or other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon Auction Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual receipt
during normal business hours of such notice or communication; provided that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business
Day. 
 (ix) Each of the Borrower and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that the Auction Agent may perform any and all of
its duties under this Section 5.1(b) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Auction Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Auction Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by
such Affiliate. The exculpatory provisions pursuant to this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the Auction Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 5.1(b)
as well as activities of the Auction Agent. 
 (x) The Borrower shall have the right, by written notice to the Auction Agent,
to revoke in full (but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted Loan Prepayment at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date (and if such offer is revoked pursuant to the preceding
clauses, any failure by the Borrower to make any prepayment to a Lender, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 5.1(b) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under this Agreement). 

  
 -62- 








 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing and except to the extent provided in the Fee Letter as it
relates to the Lenders party thereto, from and after the occurrence of a Demand Failure Event, in connection with each prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 5.1 or and each prepayment of Loans pursuant to Section 5.2
arising from any incurrence of Indebtedness described in clause (i) of the definition of “Prepayment Event”, the Borrower shall at the time of such prepayment to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders whose Loans
are being prepaid, a prepayment premium equal to the redemption premium then applicable to a redemption of Senior Notes under the Senior Refinancing Indenture (without regard to whether any Senior Notes are outstanding or the Senior Refinancing
Indenture has been entered into). 
 5.2. Mandatory Prepayments. 

(a) Loan Prepayments. (i) Prior to the Interim Loan Conversion Date, on each occasion that a Prepayment Event occurs, the Borrower
shall, within three Business Days after its receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds of a Prepayment Event, prepay, in accordance with clause (c) below Loans with principal amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from such Prepayment
Event; provided that the Borrower may, to the extent required by the ABL Facilities, apply such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay, repay or repurchase Indebtedness outstanding under such ABL Facilities within three Business Days after receipt
thereof, prior to the application of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay Loans; provided, further, that the Borrower shall not be required to make any prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.2(a), if and to the extent such prepayment
is prohibited by, or would result in the violation by any Loan Party of, the terms of any First Lien Document (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement). 

(ii) At any time on or after the Interim Loan Conversion Date, the provisions of Section 5.2(a)(i) shall no longer
be operative. 
 (b) [Reserved] 

(c) Application to Repayment Amounts. Each prepayment of Senior Interim Loans required by Section 5.2(a)(i) hereof shall be
applied on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate principal amount of Senior Interim Loans outstanding at such time; provided that in the event that any Lender or Affiliate of a Lender purchases Senior Take-Out Notes pursuant to a
Securities Demand (as defined in the Fee Letter) at an issue price above the price at which such Lender or such Affiliate has reasonably determined such Senior Take-Out Notes can be resold by such Lender or Affiliate to a bona fide third party at
the time of such purchase (and notifies the Borrower thereof), the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower in respect of the associated Prepayment Event may, at the option of the applicable Lender, be applied first to prepay the Senior Interim
Loans of such Lender (provided that if there is more than one such Lender or Affiliate then such Net Cash Proceeds will be applied pro rata to prepay the Senior Interim Loans of such Lenders in proportion to such Lenders’ principal amount of
Senior Take-Out Notes purchased from the Borrower) prior to being applied to prepay the Senior Interim Loans held by other Lenders. With respect to each such prepayment, the Borrower will, not later than the date specified in
Section 5.2(a) hereof for making such prepayment, give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent provide notice of such prepayment to each Lender. 

(d) Application to Loans. With respect to each prepayment of Loans required by Section 5.2(a) hereof or required or
permitted by Section 9.8(b) hereof the Borrower may, if applicable, designate the Types of Loans that are to be prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in
the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its reasonable discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.11 hereof. 

  
 -63- 








 (e) [Reserved] 

(f) LIBOR Interest Periods. In lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 5.2 or pursuant to
Section 9.8(b) hereof in respect of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower at its option may deposit with the
Administrative Agent an amount in Dollars equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loan to be prepaid and such LIBOR Loan shall be repaid on the last day of the Interest Period therefor in the required amount. Such deposit shall be held by the
Administrative Agent in a corporate time deposit account established on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, earning interest at the then-customary rate for accounts of such type. Such deposit shall constitute cash collateral
for the LIBOR Loans to be so prepaid, provided that the Borrower may at any time direct that such deposit be applied to make the applicable payment required pursuant to this Section 5.2. 

5.3. Method and Place of Payment. 

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made by the Borrower, without set-off,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), in each case, on the date when due and shall be made in immediately
available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office or at such other office as the Administrative Agent shall specify for such purpose by notice to the Borrower, it being understood that written or facsimile notice by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in the Borrower’s account at the Administrative Agent’s Office shall constitute the making of such payment to the extent of such funds held in such account. All repayments or
prepayments of any Loans (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) hereunder shall be made in Dollars and all other payments under each Loan Document shall, unless otherwise specified in such Loan Document, be made in Dollars. The Administrative
Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) or, otherwise, on the next Business Day) like funds relating to the payment of
principal or interest ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto. 
 (b) Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00
p.m. (New York City time) may be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business
Day, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in
effect immediately prior to such extension. 
 5.4. Net Payments. 

(a) Any and all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made
free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes; provided that if the Borrower or any Guarantor or the Administrative Agent shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes
from such payments, then (i) the Borrower or such Guarantor or the Administrative Agent shall make such deductions or withholdings as are reasonably determined by the Borrower, such Guarantor or the Administrative Agent to be required by any
applicable Requirement of Law, (ii) the Borrower, such Guarantor or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority within the time allowed and in accordance
with applicable Requirements of Law, and (iii) to the extent withholding or deduction is required to be made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower or such Guarantor


  
 -64- 








 
shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section 5.4) the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. Whenever any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are paid
by the Borrower or such Guarantor, as promptly as possible thereafter, the Borrower or Guarantor shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of a Lender, a certified copy of an official receipt received by the
Borrower or such Guarantor showing payment thereof (or other evidence of such payment reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent). 

(b) The Borrower shall timely pay and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender with regard to any Other
Taxes (whether or not such Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority). 
 (c) The
Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 15 Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or such
Lender, as the case may be (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.4), and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount of such payment or liability
delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or the Administrative Agent (as applicable) on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine
(A) whether or not any payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption
from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of any payments to be made to such Lender by any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable
jurisdiction. In addition, any Lender, if 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. 

(e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Non-U.S. Lender with respect to any Loan made to the Borrower shall, to the
extent it is legally entitled to do so: 
 (i) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date
on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, two copies of (A) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect
to payments of “portfolio interest,” United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (or any applicable successor form) (together with a certificate (substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto)
representing that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a bank (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code), is not a “10 percent shareholder” (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Borrower,
is not a “ controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower (as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code) and the interest payments in question are not effectively 

  
 -65- 








 
connected with a United States trade or business conducted by such Lender), (B) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E or Form W-8ECI (or any applicable successor
form), in each case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on payments by the Borrower under this Agreement, (C) Internal Revenue
Service Form W-8IMY (or any applicable successor form) and all necessary attachments (including the forms and certifications described in clauses (A) and (B) above, as required) or (D) any other form prescribed by applicable law
as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding
or deduction required to be made; and 
 (ii) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further copies of any
such form or certification (or any applicable successor form) on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete or invalid, after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or
certification previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent; 

unless in any such case any Change in Law has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required that renders any such form
inapplicable or would prevent such Non-U.S. Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Non-U.S. Lender promptly so advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Each Person that shall become a
Participant pursuant to Section 13.6 or a Lender pursuant to Section 13.6 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all the forms and statements required pursuant to this
Section 5.4(e); provided that in the case of a Participant such Participant shall furnish all such required forms and statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased. 

(f) If any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it had received
and retained a refund of an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax for which a payment has been made by the Borrower or any Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, which refund in the good faith judgment of such Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is attributable to such payment made by the Borrower or any Guarantor, then the Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Borrower or such Guarantor for such amount (net of
all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and without interest other than any interest received thereon from the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund) as the Lender or
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith to be the proportion of the refund as will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no better or worse position (taking into account expenses or any
taxes imposed on the refund) than it would have been in if the payment had not been required; provided that the Borrower or such Guarantor, upon the request of the Lender or the Administrative Agent, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the
Borrower or such Guarantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Lender or the Administrative Agent in the event the Lender or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund
to such Governmental Authority. In such event, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall, at the Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to
repay such refund received from the relevant Governmental Authority (provided that such Lender or the Administrative Agent may delete any information therein that it deems confidential). A Lender or the Administrative Agent shall claim any refund
that it determines is available to it, unless it concludes in its sole discretion that it would be 

  
 -66- 








 
adversely affected by making such a claim. No Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be obliged to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems
confidential) to any Loan Party in connection with this clause (f) or any other provision of this Section 5.4. 

(g) [Reserved]. 
 (h) Each
Lender and Agent that is a United States person under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a “U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9 (or substitute
or successor form), properly completed and duly executed, certifying that such Lender or Agent is exempt from United States federal backup withholding tax (i) on or prior to the Closing Date (or on or prior to the date it becomes a party to
this Agreement), (ii) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or invalid, (iii) after the occurrence of a change in the Agent’s or Lender’s circumstances requiring a change in the most recent form
previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and (iv) from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. 

(i) If a payment made to any Lender or any Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal
withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or such Agent 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 or
such Agent 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, to determine that such Lender or Agent has or has not complied with such Lender’s or Agent’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely
for purposes of this Section 5.4(i), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(j) The agreements in this Section 5.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other
amounts payable hereunder. 
 5.5. Computations of Interest. Interest on LIBOR Loans and Senior Term Loans shall be calculated on the
basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed and interest on ABR Loans in respect of which the rate of interest is calculated on the basis of the Administrative Agent’s prime rate and overdue interest shall be calculated on the
basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. 
 To the extent applicable, for the
purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), whenever any interest or fee under the Agreement is calculated using a rate based on a number of days less than a full year, such rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual
rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided by the number of days
based on which such rate is calculated. 
 5.6. Limit on Rate of Interest. 

(a) No Payment Shall Exceed Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay
any interest or other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement or otherwise in respect to any of the Obligations in excess of the amount or rate permitted under or consistent with any applicable law, rule or regulation. 

  
 -67- 








 (b) Payment at Highest Lawful Rate. If the Borrower is not obliged to make a payment that
it would otherwise be required to make, as a result of Section 5.6(a) hereof, the Borrower shall make such payment to the maximum extent permitted by or consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. 

(a) Adjustment if Any Payment Exceeds Lawful Rate. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents would obligate
the Borrower or any other Loan Party to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate that would be prohibited by any Requirement of Law or would result in a receipt by that Lender of
“interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum
amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by applicable Requirements of Law, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by the Borrower
to the affected Lender under Section 2.8 hereof. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments
contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received from the Borrower an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any applicable Requirement of Law, then the Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent to
obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by that Lender to the Borrower.

	 	SECTION 7.	Guarantee 

 7.1. Guarantee. Subject to this Section 7, each of the Guarantors
hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally, guarantees to each Lender and to the Administrative Agent, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the obligations of the Borrower
hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Loans shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of
and interest on the Loans, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Borrower to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and
(b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Loans or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and
not a guarantee of collection. 
 The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the
validity, regularity or enforceability of the Loans, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Lender with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any
judgment against the Borrower, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of
payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Borrower, any right 

  
 -70- 








 
to require a proceeding first against such Holdings, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by full payment of the obligations
contained in the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in enforcing any rights under this Section 7.1. 

If any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Borrower, the
Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Borrower or the Guarantors, any amount paid to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender, this Guarantee, to the extent
theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Lenders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Lenders, the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 11 hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay,
injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Section 11 hereof, such obligations
(whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any nonpaying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right
does not impair the rights of the Lenders under the Guarantees. 
 Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be
effective should any petition be filed by or against the Borrower for liquidation, reorganization, should the Borrower become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any
significant part of the Borrower’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of the Loans is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or
reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Loans or Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. In the
event that any payment or any part thereof is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Loans shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or
returned. 
 In case any provision of any Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability
of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 The Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be a
general secured senior obligation of such Guarantor and shall rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor, if any. 

Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any
kind or nature. 

  
 -71- 








 7.2. Limitation on Guarantor Liability 

Each Guarantor and each Lender hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not
constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, or similar limitation, for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal, state, Canadian or provincial law to the extent
applicable to any Guarantee or as otherwise limited by or required under the Agreed Security Principles. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree
that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving
effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Section 7, result in the obligations of such Guarantor
under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, or similar limitation, under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed
obligations under this Agreement to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment
determined in accordance with GAAP. 
 7.3. Execution and Delivery 

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 7 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Agreement shall be executed on behalf of
such Guarantor by its President or Treasurer, one of its Vice Presidents or one of its Assistant Vice Presidents or other authorized signatory. 

If required by Section 9.13 hereof, Holdings shall cause any Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 9.13
hereof and this Section 7, to the extent applicable. 
 7.4. Subrogation 

Subject to Section 7.1, each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders against the Borrower in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.1 hereof; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to
enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full. 

7.5. Benefits Acknowledged 

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it shall receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Agreement
and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 
 7.6.
Release of Guarantees by Guarantors 
 (a) Each Guarantee by a Subsidiary Guarantor shall provide by its terms that it shall be
automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and no further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender is required for the release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee,
upon: 
 (i) any sale, exchange, disposition or transfer (by merger, amalgamation, consolidation, dividend, distribution or
otherwise) of (x) the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary 

  
 -72- 








 
Guarantor, after which the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or (y) all or substantially all the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case if such
sale, exchange, disposition or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement; 
 (ii) the
release or discharge of the guarantee by such Subsidiary Guarantor of Indebtedness under the North American ABL Facility, or the release or discharge of such other guarantee or obligation that resulted in the creation of such Guarantee, except a
discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee (it being understood that a release subject to a contingent reinstatement will constitute a release for the purposes of this clause (ii), and that if any such guarantee is so
reinstated, such Guarantee shall also be reinstated to the extent that such Subsidiary Guarantor would then be required to provide a Guarantee pursuant to Section 9.13); 

(iii) the designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance
with the applicable provisions of this Agreement; 
 (iv) upon the merger or consolidation of any Subsidiary Guarantor with
and into the Borrower or another Guarantor or upon the liquidation of such Subsidiary Guarantor following the transfer or all of its assets to the Borrower or another Guarantor; or 

(v) upon payment in full of all Obligations of the Borrower (other than any contingent obligations or contingent
indemnification obligations not then due) arising under this Agreement. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereby
agree to execute and deliver (at the Borrower’s expense) any instruments, documents, and agreements necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.6(a) hereof. 

7.7. Effectiveness of Certain Guarantees 

The provisions set forth in this Section 7 with respect to Sunrise Holdings (Delaware), Inc., Sunrise Growers, Inc., Farm Capital
Incorporated and Pacific Ridge Farms, LLC will only become operative concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition. 
  

	 	SECTION 8.	Representations, Warranties and Agreements 

 In order to induce the Lenders to enter into
this Agreement and to make the Loans as provided for herein, Holdings, the Borrower and each other Guarantor makes, on the Closing Date, the following representations and warranties to, and agreements with, the Lenders, all of which shall survive
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans: 
 8.1. Corporate Status. Each of Holdings and its
Subsidiaries has been duly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, and is validly existing as a corporation or organization, as the case may be, in good standing under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of organization, each with full
power and authority (corporate and otherwise) to own or lease its properties or assets owned or leased by it and conduct its business as described in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, except to the extent that the failure of any Subsidiary to be
in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of Holdings and its Subsidiaries has been duly qualified as a foreign corporation or organization, as the case may be, for the transaction of business and is
in good standing under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which it owns or leases properties or conducts any business so as to require such qualification, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 -73- 








 8.2. Corporate Power and Authority; Enforceability. Each Loan Party has all requisite
corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party. Each Loan Document has been duly authorized by each Loan Party party thereto, and upon execution and
delivery thereof, each Loan Document will constitute the valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto enforceable against the Loan Parties party thereto in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by
(i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws in effect which affect the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity, whether considered in a
proceeding at law or in equity and (iii) state, provincial or federal securities laws or policies relating to the non-enforceability of the indemnification provisions contained therein (clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) collectively,
the “Enforceability Exceptions”). 
 8.3. No Violation. 

(a) None of the execution, delivery or performance by any Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party or the compliance with the
terms and provisions thereof will (1) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of
the assets of Holdings or its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms or provisions of, or give any other party a right to terminate any of its obligations under, or result in the acceleration of any obligation under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of
trust, loan agreement or other material agreement or material instrument to which Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of Holdings or any of
its Subsidiaries is subject (other than any lien or encumbrance created or imposed pursuant to the Loan Documents or any Permitted Exceptions), (2) result in any violation of the provisions of the charter and organizational documents of the
Borrower or any Guarantor as currently in effect or (3) result in any violation of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any of
their properties, except, in cases (1) and (3), for any such default or violation that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is (1) in violation of its Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws, (2) except
where such violation or default would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, in default in the performance or observance of any material obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed
of trust, voting trust agreement, loan agreement, bond, debenture, note agreement, lease or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or (3) except where such lack of compliance
would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (and except, in the case of Opta Minerals Inc., for the failure to be in compliance with all of the financial covenants under certain of its debt instruments as of July 4, 2015,
which lack of compliance is disclosed in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, and for which Opta Minerals Inc. has obtained a waiver from its lenders), in violation of any law, regulation or order applicable to it or its business. To the knowledge
of Holdings and the Borrower, no other party under any such agreement or instrument described in clause (2) of the preceding sentence to which it is a party is in default thereunder or has given written or oral notice to Holdings or any
of its officers or directors of such other party’s intention to terminate, cancel or refuse to renew any such agreement or instrument, except for such terminations, cancellations or non-renewals that would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 -74- 








 8.4. Litigation. Except as otherwise disclosed in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, or
except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) there are no legal or governmental actions, suits, investigations or proceedings before or by any federal, provincial or state
court, commission, regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental body, domestic or foreign, pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings and the Borrower, threatened to which Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries is or may be a party or of
which property owned or leased by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries is or may be the subject, or related to environmental or discrimination matters, (ii) no material labor disturbance by the employees of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries
exists or, to the knowledge of Holdings and the Borrower, is imminent or being threatened and (iii) neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party or subject to the provisions of any material injunction, judgment, decree or order of
any court, governmental agency or other regulatory body, domestic or foreign. 
 8.5. Margin Regulations. None of the Transactions
will violate or result in a violation of Regulations T, U and X of the Board of Governors. 
 8.6. Governmental Approvals. The
execution, delivery and performance of each Loan Document do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or other action by, any Governmental Authority, except for (a) such as have been obtained or made and are in full
force and effect, (b) as may be required to perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interests granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents, (c) such consents, approvals, registrations, filings or actions the failure of which to obtain
or make would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) as disclosed in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum. 

8.7. Investment Company Act. No Loan Party is, and after giving effect to the Transactions, will be, an “investment company”
within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 8.8. True and Complete Disclosure. 

(a) The Preliminary Offering Memorandum does not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not apply to any statements or
omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Borrower by a Lender expressly for use therein. 

(b) The projections (including financial estimates, forecasts and other forward-looking information) previously provided to the Lenders prior
to the date of this Agreement were based on good faith estimates and assumptions believed by Holdings and the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made; it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections are as to future events and are not to
be viewed as facts, the projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of Holdings, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, that no assurance can be given that any particular
projections will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results and such differences may be material. 

8.9. Financial Condition; Financial Statements. The consolidated financial statements and schedules, if any, of Holdings and its
Subsidiaries, and the related notes thereto, included or incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum present fairly in all material respects the financial position of Holdings and the Borrower as of the respective dates of such
financial statements 

  
 -75- 








 
and schedules, and the results of operations and cash flows of Holdings and its Subsidiaries for the respective periods covered thereby; such statements, schedules and related notes have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States applied on a consistent basis as certified by the independent public accountants named therein; no other consolidated financial statements or schedules, if
any, of Holdings and its Subsidiaries are required to be included or incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum; and the summary historical financial data included in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum under the caption
“Summary—Summary Financial Data—Summary Historical and Pro Forma Financial Data of SunOpta” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” present fairly in all material
respects the information set forth therein. 
 8.10. Tax Matters. Holdings and each Subsidiary of Holdings that would constitute a
“significant subsidiary” as such term is defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act (each such Subsidiary, a “Material Subsidiary” and, collectively, the “Material Subsidiaries”) have
filed all necessary federal, provincial, state and foreign income and franchise tax returns, each of which has been true and correct in all material respects. Holdings and each of its Subsidiaries have paid all taxes shown as due thereon, except for
any such failure to pay as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and Holdings has no knowledge of any material tax deficiency which has been or might be asserted or threatened against
Holdings or any of the Material Subsidiaries. 
 8.11. Compliance with ERISA; Labor Disputes. 

(a) Holdings and its Subsidiaries and any “employee benefit plan” (as defined under Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder (collectively, “ERISA”)), whether or not subject to ERISA, established or maintained by Holdings or its Subsidiaries or by
the ERISA Affiliates (as defined below) of any of Holdings’ U.S. Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects with ERISA, the Code and any applicable non-U.S. pension and benefit laws, regulations, or rulings, and all such
plans have been fully funded and expensed in accordance with GAAP. “ERISA Affiliate” means, with respect to any of Holdings’ U.S. Subsidiaries, any natural person or entity which is a member of any controlled group of
organizations within the meaning of Sections 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code of which such Subsidiary is a member. Except as would not result in material liability to Holdings and its Subsidiaries, (i) no
“reportable event” (as defined under Section 4043 of ERISA) has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by Holdings’ U.S. Subsidiaries or
any of their ERISA Affiliates, (ii) no “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by Holdings’ U.S. Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates, if such “employee benefit plan” were terminated, would have
any “amount of unfunded benefit liabilities” (as defined under Section 4062 or 4069 of ERISA), and (iii) each “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by Holdings’ U.S. Subsidiaries or any of
their ERISA Affiliates that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is the subject of an unexpired favorable determination letter issued by the Internal Revenue Service and nothing has occurred, whether by action or failure
to act, which would reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such qualification. None of Holdings’ U.S. Subsidiaries nor any of their ERISA Affiliates has incurred or would reasonably expect to incur any material liability under
(i) Title IV of ERISA with respect to termination of, or withdrawal from, any “employee benefit plan” or (ii) Sections 412, 4971, 4975 or 4980B of the Code. Neither Holdings nor any of the Material Subsidiaries has
incurred or would reasonably expect to incur any material liability under any applicable non-U.S. pension or benefit laws, regulations or rulings which has not been fully funded or expensed in accordance with GAAP. No “employee
benefit plan” is, or would reasonably be expected to be, (i) in “at-risk” status (within the meaning of Section 303(i)(4)(A) of ERISA or Section 430(i)(4)(A) of the Code), (ii) in “critical and declining”
status (within the meaning of Section 305 of ERISA) or (iii) subject to liability or the imposition of a lien under Section 436 or 430(k) of the Code, ERISA or other applicable non-U.S. pension legislation. 

(b) Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is involved in any labor dispute, except where the dispute would not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, nor, to the knowledge of Holdings and the Borrower, is any such dispute threatened. Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries has been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards
Act or other applicable U.S. or non-U.S. legal requirements related to the hours worked by and payments made to their employees, except for such violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

 8.12. [Reserved]. 

8.13. Intellectual Property. Holdings and the Borrower each owns, or possesses and/or has been granted valid and enforceable licenses
for, all registered patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, tradenames, servicemarks and copyrights necessary to the conduct of its business as such business is described in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum
(collectively, the “Registered Intellectual Property”). Neither Holdings nor the Borrower has any knowledge of any material infringement or misappropriation by third parties of any of the Registered Intellectual Property, or any
material inventions, manufacturing processes, formulae, trade secrets, know-how, unregistered trademarks, and other intangible property and assets necessary to the conduct of its business as such business is described in the Preliminary Offering
Memorandum (collectively, the “Other Intellectual Property,” and together with the Registered Intellectual Property, the “Intellectual Property”), nor is there any pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings and the
Borrower, threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others challenging Holdings’ or the Borrower’s rights of title or other interest in or to any Intellectual Property, and neither Holdings nor the Borrower knows of any facts which
would form a reasonable basis for any such claim. There is no pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or the Borrower, threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others challenging the validity and scope of any Intellectual Property, and
neither Holdings nor the Borrower knows of any facts which would form a reasonable basis for any such claim. There is no pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings and the Borrower, threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others that Holdings
or the Borrower or any of their products or processes or the Intellectual Property infringe or otherwise violate any patent, trademark, servicemark, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary right of others, and neither Holdings nor the Borrower
is aware of any facts that would form a reasonable basis for any such claim, except for such claims or facts as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Holdings nor the Borrower
is aware of any grounds for an interference proceeding before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or the Canadian Intellectual Property Office in relation to any of the patents or patent applications currently owned by Holdings or the
Borrower. There is no pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings and the Borrower, threatened action, suit proceeding or claim by any current or former employee, consultant or agent of Holdings or the Borrower seeking either ownership rights to any
invention or other intellectual property right or compensation from Holdings or the Borrower for any invention or other intellectual property right made by such employee, consultant or agent in the course of his/her employment with Holdings, the
Borrower or otherwise. The Preliminary Offering Memorandum fairly and accurately describes in all material respects Holdings’ and the Borrowers’ rights with respect to the Intellectual Property. Holdings and its Subsidiaries have taken
reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all their Intellectual Property in all material aspects, and neither Holdings nor the Borrower has any reason to believe that such Intellectual Property is not or, if
not yet patented or registered, would not be, valid and enforceable against an unauthorized user.

Memorandum, or except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, Holdings and its Subsidiaries (i) are in compliance with all applicable foreign, federal, provincial, state and
local laws and regulations relating to the protection of human or occupational health and safety (in each case, to the extent relating to exposure to hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants) or of the environment or the

applicable Environmental Laws to conduct its businesses and (iii) are in compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval. Holdings, in its reasonable judgment, has concluded that any costs or liabilities

license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any liabilities to third parties) would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

8.15. Compliance with FDA. 

(a) Holdings and the Material Subsidiaries possess all licenses, certificates, authorizations or permits issued by the appropriate
governmental or regulatory agencies or authorities (including, without limitation, the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”)) that are necessary to enable them to own, lease and operate their respective properties and to carry on
their respective businesses as presently conducted (collectively, the “Permits”), and such Permits are in full force and effect, except where the failure to do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. Holdings or the Borrower, as applicable, has fulfilled and performed all of its obligations with respect to the Permits in all material respects. Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice
of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such license, certificate, authority or permit, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All applications, notifications, submissions, information,
claims, reports and statistics, and other data and conclusions derived therefrom, utilized as the basis for any and all requests for a Permit from the FDA or other governmental authority relating to Holdings or the Borrower, as applicable, its
business and its products, when submitted to the FDA or other governmental authority by or on behalf of Holdings or the Borrower, as applicable, were true, complete and correct in all material respects. Any necessary or required updates, changes,
corrections or modification to such applications, notifications, submissions, information, claims, reports and statistics and other data have been submitted to the FDA or other governmental authority, except as would not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of Holdings and the Borrower, there are no facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any material liability of Holdings or the
Borrower under any Permits. Holdings and the Borrower and, to their knowledge, their respective directors, officers, employees and agents have operated and currently are in compliance with applicable statutes and implementing regulations
administered or enforced by the FDA, or any other federal, provincial, state, local, or foreign governmental authority, governing the conduct of Holdings’ and the Borrower’s business as presently conducted, except for such noncompliance as
would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) Except as otherwise described in the Preliminary Offering
Memorandum, or except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, neither Holdings nor the Borrower has had any product or manufacturing site (whether Holdings-owned, Borrower-owned or

Borrower, neither the FDA nor any

other governmental authority has threatened such action; and neither Holdings nor the Borrower has any outstanding FDA Form 483 or other non-ordinary course governmental authority notice of
inspectional observations, “warning letter” or other correspondence or notice from the FDA or other governmental authority alleging or asserting noncompliance with any applicable laws, except for such observations or allegations that would
not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect

(i) otherwise permitted under this Agreement or (ii) do not materially affect the value of such properties, taken as a whole, and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such properties by the Loan Parties. Any real
property and buildings held under lease by the Loan Parties are held under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as would not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by Holdings or
such Loan Party, as applicable, or as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Holdings and its Subsidiaries own or lease all such properties as are necessary to its operations as now conducted. 

8.17. Security. 
 (a)
Upon execution and delivery, the mortgages, deeds of trust or deeds to secure debt (each, a “Mortgage” and collectively, the “Mortgages”) will be effective to grant a legal, valid and enforceable mortgage lien or
security title on all of the mortgagor’s right, title and interest in the real property included in the Collateral (each, a “Mortgaged Property” and, collectively, the “Mortgaged Properties”). When the
Mortgages are duly recorded in the proper recorders’ offices or appropriate public records and the mortgage recording fees and taxes in respect thereof are paid and compliance is otherwise had with the formal requirements of state or provincial
law, applicable to the recording of real estate mortgages generally, each such Mortgage shall constitute a validly perfected and enforceable second priority lien or security title and security interest in the related Mortgaged Property for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent, subject only to the encumbrances and exceptions to title expressly permitted in the Mortgages (including those liens under the North American ABL Facility and the other liens expressly permitted to be incurred or
exist on the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement) or expressly set forth as an exception to the policies of title insurance obtained to insure the lien of each Mortgage with respect to each of the Mortgaged Properties (such encumbrances and
exceptions, the “Permitted Exceptions”), and to the Enforceability Exceptions.

security interests in the Personal Property Collateral, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, enforceable in accordance with the terms contained therein against all creditors of any grantor or mortgagor, subject to the Enforceability
Exceptions, and subject only to liens expressly permitted to be incurred or exist on the Personal Property Collateral under this Agreement. 

(c) Upon execution and delivery, the Security Agreements will be effective to grant a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in all of

transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (i) the fair value of the assets of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, exceeds, on a consolidated basis, their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise;
(ii) the present fair saleable value of the property of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability, on a consolidated basis, of their debts and other

to have a Material Adverse Effect.

regulations of the Exchange Act with respect to the filing of a Form 10-K by a non-accelerated filer) after the end of each fiscal year, annual reports on Form 10-K, or any successor or comparable form, containing the information required

extent that they may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force,

which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of issuance of such Designated Preferred Stock, after giving effect to such issuance or declaration on a pro forma basis, Holdings and the Restricted
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis would have had a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 2.00 to 1.00. 
 Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in the foregoing, until the Interim Loan Conversion Date, no Restricted Payments as defined in clauses (I)-(III) of the definition thereof shall be permitted pursuant to Section 9.5(a) or clause (8) of Section 9.5(b).

 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 9.5, in the event that a Restricted Payment (or portion thereof)
meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted Payments described in clauses (1) through (11) above, or is permitted pursuant to Section 9.5(a), Holdings will be entitled to classify such Restricted Payment
(or portion thereof) on the date of its payment or later reclassify such Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this covenant. 

Holdings shall not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the next to the last sentence of
the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by Holdings and the Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the
Subsidiary so designated shall be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an amount determined as set forth in the penultimate sentence of the definition of “Investments.” Such designation shall be permitted only if a Restricted Payment in
such amount would be permitted at such time, whether pursuant to Section 9.5(a) or (b) hereof, or pursuant to the definition of “Permitted Investments”, and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary. Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to any of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.5 shall not restrict the making of any “AHYDO catch
up payment” with respect to, and required by the terms of, any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries permitted to be incurred under the terms of this Agreement. 

9.6. Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. 

(a) Holdings will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is not the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly

(1) (A) pay dividends or make any other distributions to Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a
Subsidiary Guarantor on its Capital Stock or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or 

(B) pay any Indebtedness owed to Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor; 

(2) make loans or advances to Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor; or 

(3) sell, lease or transfer any of its properties or assets to Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary.

(5) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by or merged or consolidated with or into Holdings or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries in existence at the time of such acquisition or at the time it merges with or into Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or assumed in connection with the acquisition of assets from such Person (but, in any such
case, not created in contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person so acquired and its Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the Person
so acquired and its Subsidiaries or the property or assets so acquired; 
 (6) contracts for the sale of assets, including
customary restrictions with respect to a Subsidiary of Holdings pursuant to an agreement that has been entered into for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets of such Subsidiary; 

(7) Indebtedness and Liens otherwise permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 9.7 and Section 9.10;

(ii) other third parties under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business or arising in connection with any Permitted Liens; 

(9) customary provisions in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements or arrangements relating solely to such joint
venture; 
 (10) customary provisions contained in contracts, leases, sub-leases, licenses, sub-licenses or similar

(11) restrictions or conditions contained in any trading, netting, operating, construction, service, supply, purchase, sale or
other agreement to which Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party entered into in the ordinary course of business; provided that such agreement prohibits the encumbrance of solely the property or assets of Holdings or such
Restricted Subsidiary that are the subject to such agreement, the payment rights arising thereunder or the proceeds thereof and does not extend to any other asset or property of Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary or the assets or property of
another Restricted Subsidiary; 

  
 -91- 








 (12) any encumbrance or restriction with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary which
was previously an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to or by reason of an agreement that such Subsidiary is a party to or entered into before the date on which such Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such agreement was
not entered into in anticipation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary becoming a Restricted Subsidiary and any such encumbrance or restriction does not extend to any assets or property of Holdings or any other Restricted Subsidiary other than the assets
and property of such Subsidiary; 
 (13) other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock permitted to be incurred
subsequent to the Closing Date pursuant to Section 9.7; provided that, in the judgment of Holdings, such incurrence will not materially impair the Borrower’s ability to make payments under the Loans when due;

clauses (1) through (17) of this Section 9.6(b); provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith
judgment of Holdings, no more restrictive in any material respect with respect to such encumbrance and other restrictions taken as a whole than those prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding,
replacement or refinancing. 
 9.7. Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock.

 (a) Holdings will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume,
guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise (collectively, “incur” and collectively, an “incurrence”) with respect to any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) and
Holdings will not issue any shares of Disqualified Stock and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to issue any shares of Disqualified Stock or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor to issue Preferred Stock; provided that
Holdings may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), issue shares of Disqualified Stock and any Restricted

internal financial statements 

  
 -92- 








 
are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is issued would have been at least 2.00
to 1.00, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred, or the Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be,
and the application of proceeds therefrom had occurred at the beginning of such four-quarter period; provided that the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), Disqualified Stock and
Preferred Stock that may be incurred or issued, as applicable, pursuant to this paragraph (plus any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof) by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors shall not exceed 4.0% of Consolidated Total

understood that any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred pursuant to this clause (15) shall cease to be deemed incurred or outstanding for purposes of this clause (15) but shall be deemed incurred for the purposes
of the first paragraph of this covenant from and after the first date on which Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary could have incurred such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock under the first paragraph of this covenant without
reliance on this clause (15); 
 (16) Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of Holdings and Indebtedness, Disqualified

or (ii) take-or-pay obligations contained in supply arrangements in each case, incurred in the ordinary course of business; 

(21) Indebtedness of Holdings and any Restricted Subsidiary of Holdings to the extent the proceeds of such Indebtedness are
deposited and used to defease or satisfy and discharge any Senior Notes or Senior Take-Out Notes; 
 (22) Indebtedness

the date of such incurrence); it being understood that any Indebtedness deemed incurred pursuant to this clause (27) shall cease to be deemed incurred or outstanding for purposes of this clause (27) but shall be deemed incurred for the
purposes of the first paragraph of this covenant from and after the first date on which Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiaries could have incurred such Indebtedness under the first paragraph of this covenant without reliance on this
clause (27). 
 (c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 9.7: 

(x) in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the
criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in clauses (1) through (27) of Section 9.7(b) or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to
Section 9.7(a) hereof, Holdings, in its sole discretion, may classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) as one or more types of Indebtedness in clauses (1)
through (27) of this Section 9.7(b) or under Section 9.7(a) hereof; provided that all Indebtedness outstanding under the ABL Facilities on the Closing Date shall be treated as incurred on the Closing Date
under clause (1) of Section 9.7(b) hereof; and 
 (y) Holdings shall be entitled to divide and
classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Sections 9.7(a) and 9.7(b) hereof. 

  
 -97- 








 (d) Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or
amortization of original issue discount and the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, shall not be deemed to be an incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 9.7 or Section 9.10. Any Refinancing Indebtedness and any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Agreement to refinance Indebtedness incurred
pursuant to clauses (1) and (15) of Section 9.7(b) hereof shall be deemed to include additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred to pay premiums (including reasonable tender premiums),
defeasance costs, fees and expenses in connection with such refinancing. 
 (e) For purposes of determining compliance with any
U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect
on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency,
and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction
shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (x) the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (y) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting
discounts, premiums (including tender premiums, defeasance costs and other costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with the issuance of such new Indebtedness. 

The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness
being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Holdings shall not, and shall not permit the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly
or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is contractually subordinated or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is expressly
subordinated in right of payment to the Loans or such Guarantor’s Guarantee to the extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to other Indebtedness of the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be. Unsecured
Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured. Indebtedness shall not be treated as subordinated or junior to any other Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with
respect to the same collateral or because it is guaranteed by other obligors. 
 9.8. Asset Sales. 

(a) Holdings shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to consummate an Asset Sale, unless: 

(1) Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least
equal to the fair market value (such fair market value to be determined by Holdings at the time of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; 

  
 -98- 








 (2) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the
consideration therefor, on a per transaction basis, received by Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of Cash Equivalents; provided that the following amounts shall be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for the
purposes of this Section 9.8: 
 (A) any liabilities (as shown on Holdings’ or such Restricted
Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto or, if incurred or increased subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been shown on Holdings’ or such Restricted Subsidiary’s
balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto if such incurrence or increase had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet, as determined by Holdings) of Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary, other than liabilities that are by their
terms subordinated to the Notes, that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets and for which Holdings and all of its Restricted Subsidiaries have been validly released by all applicable creditors or indemnified in writing; 

(B) any securities, notes or other obligations or assets received by Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary from such
transferee that are converted by Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary into Cash Equivalents (to the extent of Cash Equivalents received) within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale; 

(C) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having
an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (c) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (i) $25.0 million or 2.00% of
Consolidated Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration, with the fair market value in each case being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value; and 

(D) any stock or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2)(a) or 2(c) of Section 9.5(b); and 

(3) if such Asset Sale involves the disposition of Collateral, the Borrower or such Guarantor has complied with the provisions
of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents. 
 (b) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale,
Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, 
 (1) to reduce or
offer to reduce Indebtedness as follows: 
 (A) if the assets subject to such Asset Sale constitute Collateral, to
permanently repay any ABL Debt or to reduce (or offer to reduce, as applicable) Obligations under the Loans, Senior Notes, the Senior Take-Out Notes and any Additional Parity Debt on a pro rata basis; 

  
 -99- 








 (B) if the assets subject to such Asset Sale do not constitute Collateral, to
reduce Obligations under Senior Indebtedness that is secured by a Lien, which Lien is permitted by this Agreement; 
 (C) if
the assets subject to such Asset Sale do not constitute Collateral, to permanently reduce (or offer to reduce) Obligations under other Senior Indebtedness (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto), provided that the
Borrower shall equally and ratably reduce (or offer to reduce, as applicable) Obligations under the Loans and any Additional Parity Debt on a pro rata basis; or 

(D) if the assets subject to such Asset Sale are the property or assets of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Borrower or
a Guarantor, to permanently reduce Indebtedness of (i) such Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Borrower or a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to Holdings or another Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) the Borrower or a Guarantor; or

 (2) to make (a) an Investment in any one or more businesses, provided that such Investment in any business is
in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary,
(b) capital expenditures or (c) acquisitions of other assets, in the case of each of (a), (b) and (c) that are used or useful in a Similar Business; provided that the assets (including Capital Stock) acquired with the Net
Proceeds of a disposition of Collateral are pledged as Collateral to the extent required under the Collateral Documents (except to the extent the Lien thereon is released in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents); or 

(3) to make an investment in (a) any one or more businesses, provided that such Investment in any business is in
the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary,
(b) properties or (c) acquisitions of other assets, in the case of each of (a), (b) and (c) that replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are subject of such Asset Sale; provided that the assets (including
Capital Stock) acquired with the Net Proceeds of a disposition of Collateral are pledged as Collateral to the extent required under the Collateral Documents (except to the extent the Lien thereon is released in accordance with the terms of the
Collateral Documents); 
 provided that, in the case of clause (2) and (3) above, a binding commitment entered into
not later than such 365th day shall extend the period for such Investment or other payment for an additional 180 days after the end of such 365-day period so long as Holdings or such other Restricted Subsidiary enters into such
commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is
later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds. 

(c) Any Net Proceeds that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 9.8(b) shall be
deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Borrower shall (x) prepay the Loans, and, (y) if required or permitted by the terms of any Indebtedness
that is pari passu with the Loans (“Pari Passu Indebtedness”), to prepay or offer to prepay the amount of Loans and such Pari Passu Indebtedness (an “Asset Sale Offer”), to prepay a maximum aggregate principal
amount of the Loans, Senior Notes or Senior Take-out Notes, as applicable, and such Senior Indebtedness that is a minimum of 

  
 -100- 








 
$2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount
thereof (or accreted value thereof, if less), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer and, if applicable, additional interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in
accordance with the procedures set forth in this Agreement. 
 To the extent that the aggregate amount of Loans and such Pari Passu
Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in this Agreement.
If the aggregate principal amount of Loans or Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, Holdings or the applicable trustee, as applicable, shall select the Loans and Pari Passu Indebtedness to
be prepaid on a pro rata basis (so long as an authorized denomination results therefrom) based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Loans or Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount
of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 
 (d) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this
Section 9.8, the Borrower or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may apply such Net Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not
prohibited by this Agreement. 
 9.9. Transactions with Affiliates. 

(a) Holdings shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise
dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the
Borrower (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $5.0 million, unless: 

(1) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to Holdings or its relevant Restricted
Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis; and 

(2) Holdings delivers to the Administrative Agent with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate
Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $10.0 million, a resolution adopted in good faith by a majority of the board of directors of the Borrower approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in an
Officer’s Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) of this Section 9.9(a). 

(b) The provisions of Section 9.9(a) hereof shall not apply to the following: 

(1) transactions between or among Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any entity that becomes a Restricted
Subsidiary as a result of such transaction; 
 (2) Restricted Payments permitted by Section 9.5 hereof or the
definition of “Permitted Investments”; 

  
 -101- 








 (3) (A) employment agreements, employee benefit and incentive compensation plans
and arrangements and (B) the payment of reasonable fees, expenses and compensation paid to, and indemnities and reimbursements and employment and severance arrangements provided on behalf of, or for the benefit of, former, current or future
officers, directors, managers, employees, distributors or consultants of Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(4) transactions in which Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Administrative
Agent a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less favorable, when taken as a whole,
to Holdings or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by Holdings or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis; 

(5) the Transactions and the payment of all fees and expenses related to the Transactions, including the Transaction Expenses;

 (6) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, contractors, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods
or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Agreement which are fair to the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable
determination of the board of directors of the Borrower or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party; 

(7) the issuance or transfer of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Holdings to any director, officer, employee
or consultant; 
 (8) payments on Indebtedness and Disqualified Stock (and cancellation of any thereof) of Holdings and its
Restricted Subsidiaries and Preferred Stock (and cancellation of any thereof) of any Restricted Subsidiary to any future, current or former employee, director, officer, manager or consultant of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to any
management equity plan or stock option plan or any other management or employee benefit plan or agreement or any stock subscription or shareholder agreement that are, in each case, approved by Holdings in good faith; and any employment agreements,
stock option plans and other compensatory arrangements (and any successor plans thereto) and any supplemental executive retirement benefit plans or arrangements with such employees, directors, officers, managers or consultants which, in each case,
are approved by Holdings in good faith; 
 (9) the pledge of Equity Interests of any Unrestricted Subsidiary; 

(10) payments to or from, and transactions with, joint ventures or Unrestricted Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary
course of business or consistent with past practice (including, without limitation, any cash management activities related thereto); 

(11) any contributions to the common equity capital of Holdings; 

(12) transactions permitted by, and complying with, the provisions of Section 9.14; 

(13) transactions between Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person, the sole affiliation to Holdings or
any of the Restricted Subsidiaries of which is that a director of such Person is also a director of Holdings; provided, however, that such director abstains from voting as a director of Holdings on any matter involving such other
Person; 

  
 -102- 








 (14) intellectual property licenses in the ordinary course of business; and 

(15) any agreement or arrangement as in effect as of the Closing Date, or any amendment thereto (so long as any such amendment
is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Lenders when taken as a whole as compared to the applicable agreement as in effect on the Closing Date). 

9.10. Liens. Holdings shall not, and shall not permit the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create,
incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) that secures Obligations under any Indebtedness or any related guarantee of Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor (any such Lien, the “Initial Lien”) on
any asset or property of Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, except, in the case of any asset or property that does not constitute
Collateral (including assets or property that previously constituted Collateral that have been released from the Liens securing the Loans and the Guarantees), any Initial Lien on such assets or property shall be permitted notwithstanding it is not a
Permitted Lien if, subject to the Agreed Security Principles, the Loans are equally and ratably secured with (or on a senior basis to, in the case such Initial Lien secures any Subordinated Indebtedness) the obligations secured by such Initial Lien
until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by an Initial Lien on such assets or property. 
 Any Lien which is granted to
secure the Loans under this Section 9.10 shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien which release and discharge in the
case of any sale of any such asset or property shall not affect any Lien that the Collateral Agent may have on the proceeds from such sale. 

9.11. Corporate Existence. Subject to Sections 9.14 and 9.15, Holdings shall do or cause to be done all things
necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its existence, whether corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence, as the case may be, and (ii) the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or
other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of Holdings or any such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that Holdings shall not
be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Borrower), if Holdings in good faith shall determine that the preservation thereof
is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of Holdings and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 
 9.12. Offer to
Repurchase upon Change of Control. 
 (a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless otherwise prepaid in accordance with
Section 5.2(a) or Section 9.8 hereof, the Borrower shall make an offer to prepay all of the Loans pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change
of Control Prepayment”) equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, to the date of purchase, subject to the right of Lenders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the
relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Borrower shall send notice of such Change of Control Offer by first-class mail, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, to each Lender to the address of
such Lender appearing in the Register with a copy to the Administrative Agent, with the following information: 
 (1) that a
Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 9.12 and that such Lender has the right to require the Borrower to prepay such Lender’s Loans; 

  
 -103- 








 (2) the prepayment amount and the prepayment date, which will be no earlier
than 15 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Prepayment Date”); 

(3) that any Loans not properly accepted for prepayment pursuant to this Section 9.12 will remain outstanding and
continue to accrue interest; 
 (4) that unless the Borrower defaults in the prepayment of the Change of Control Prepayment,
all Loans accepted for prepayment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Prepayment Date; 

(5) that Lenders electing to have their Loans prepaid pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall be required to give written
notice to the Administrative Agent prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(6) that Lenders shall be entitled to withdraw their election to require the Borrower to prepay such Loans, provided
that the Borrower receives, not later than the close of business on the expiration date of the Change of Control Offer, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Lender, the principal amount of Loans accepted for prepayment,
and a statement that such Lender is withdrawing its election to have such Loans prepaid; 
 (7) [Reserved]. 

(8) that if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control stating that the Change of Control Offer is
conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control and shall describe each such condition, and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Borrower’s discretion, the Change of Control Payment Date may be delayed until such time as any or all
such conditions shall be satisfied, or that such purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Change of Control Payment Date, or by the Change of Control
Payment Date as so delayed; and 
 (9) the other instructions, as determined by the Borrower, consistent with this
Section 9.12, that a Lender must follow. 
 The notice, if mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to
have been given, whether or not the Lender receives such notice. If (a) the notice is mailed in a manner herein provided and (b) any Lender fails to receive such notice or a Lender receives such notice but it is defective, such
Lender’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Loans as to all other Lenders that properly received such notice without defect. 

(b) On the Change of Control Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, 

(i) prepay all Loans, or portions thereof, accepted for prepayment in accordance with this Section 9.12, pursuant
to the Change of Control Offer; 

  
 -104- 








 (ii) deposit with the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate
Change of Control Prepayment in respect of all Loans or portions thereof so accepted for prepayment; and 
 (iii) deliver, or
cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent, an Officer’s Certificate to the Administrative Agent stating that such Loans or portions thereof have been prepaid by the Borrower. 

(c) The Borrower shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if a third-party makes the Change of
Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 9.12 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Borrower and repays all Loans accepted for prepayment pursuant
to such Change of Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change
of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer. 
 (d) Other than as specifically provided in this
Section 9.12, any prepayment pursuant to this Section 9.12 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 5.2, 5.5 and 5.6 hereof. 

(e) The provisions of this Section 9.12, and the definition of “Change of Control,” may be waived or modified with the
written consent of the Required Lenders. 
 9.13. Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries. Holdings shall not permit
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor), to guarantee the payment of any Domestic Priority Debt of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor unless it (i) causes (in the case of any Restricted
Subsidiary that is not a Foreign Subsidiary or a Canadian CFC) and (ii) uses commercially reasonable efforts to cause (in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary or a Canadian CFC): 

(1) such Restricted Subsidiary within 30 days executes and delivers a Supplemental Guarantee substantially in the
form of Exhibit A hereto providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, provided that if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Loans or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any
such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Loans; and 

(2) such Restricted Subsidiary to waive and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any
rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against Holdings or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its Guarantee. 

provided that this Section 9.13 shall not be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person
became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. 

Holdings may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise required to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor, in
which case such Subsidiary shall not be required to comply with the 30 day period described in clause (1) above. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Holdings shall not be obligated to cause any Foreign Subsidiary or a Canadian CFC to Guarantee the Loans to the extent and for so long as the incurrence of 

  
 -105- 








 
such Guarantee could reasonably be expected to give rise to or result in: (1) any violation of applicable law or regulation; (2) any liability for the officers, directors or
shareholders of such Restricted Subsidiary; (3) any cost, expense, liability or obligation (including with respect to any non-U.S. taxes) other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and other than reasonable expenses incurred in
connection with any governmental or regulatory filings required as a result of, or undertaken in connection with, such Guarantee, which in any case cannot be avoided through measures reasonably available to Holdings or a Restricted Subsidiary; or
(4) an inconsistency with the Intercreditor Agreement or the Agreed Security Principles. 
 Holdings shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause Coöperatie SunOpta U.A., an entity organized under the laws of The Netherlands (“Coöperatie”) to guarantee the Loans within 90 days after the Closing Date or as soon as reasonably
practicable thereafter (in the good faith determination of Holdings). 
 Any Restricted Subsidiary that is not obligated to provide a
Guarantee due to the exceptions set forth in the second preceding paragraph shall not be permitted to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of Holdings, the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Foreign Subsidiary or a Canadian CFC
unless such Indebtedness is Domestic Priority Debt. 
 Each additional Guarantee may include such guarantee limitation provisions (including
those that relate to fraudulent conveyance or transfer, voidable preference, financial assistance, corporate benefit or purpose, thin capitalization, distributable reserves, capital maintenance or similar laws, regulations or defenses affecting the
rights of creditors generally) or other provisions reasonably required to comply with applicable laws of its jurisdiction of organization when entering into its Guarantee or such other document that may evidence such Guarantee. 

In the event a Restricted Subsidiary is required to and is able to provide a Guarantee in accordance with this covenant, concurrently with the
execution and delivery of such Guarantee or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary will, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and the Agreed Security Principles, execute and deliver a joinder agreement to the
Collateral Documents or other agreements or instruments providing for a pledge of its assets as Collateral for the Loans substantially consistent with the security documents relating to the applicable Domestic Priority Debt securing such assets. For
the avoidance of doubt, such joinder, agreements or instruments may include such additional provisions that are reasonably required to comply with applicable laws of such Restricted Subsidiary’s jurisdiction of organization relating to the
second priority nature of the Lien, the nature of the indebtedness being secured, the limited discretion that may be exercised by a notes collateral agent and other customary or required differences or exceptions to reflect the differences between a
first priority security interest and a second priority security interest.

equivalent filings in the Province of Quebec, which shall be completed on the Closing Date) on the Closing Date, Holdings, the Borrower and such Subsidiary Guarantor shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to complete such actions

that in the case of this clause (ii) the Loans will be secured on a second priority basis by Collateral that secures the Domestic Priority Debt that is outstanding after giving effect to any such replacement or refinancing, subject to the
Agreed Security Principles) or (B) if such assets do not secure any ABL Debt Obligations because a security interest is no longer granted in such assets to secure the ABL Debt Obligations, due to a waiver by the holders of ABL Debt Obligations
or for any other reason (other than in the context described in the parenthetical phrase contained in subclause (A) of this clause (6)); 

(7) with respect to Net Proceeds constituting Collateral, to the extent such Net Proceeds are used for any one or more purposes

(10) in accordance with clause (c) below; 

(b) The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereby agree to execute and deliver (at the Borrower’s expense) any instruments,

Parity Debt shall terminate and be released automatically to the extent the first priority liens on the Collateral are released in connection with the foreclosure of, or other exercise of remedies with respect to, such Collateral by the ABL
Collateral Agent (except with respect to any proceeds of such sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition that remain after satisfaction in full of the ABL Debt Obligations) (notwithstanding the existence of an Event of Default). Except as set
forth in clause (1) through (9) of Section 10.2(a) and the prior sentence, no release of the second-priority liens on all or substantially all of the Collateral securing the Loan and any

Permitted Additional Parity Debt shall be made unless (i) consent to such release has been given by the requisite percentage or number of the holders of the Loans and any Permitted
Additional Parity Debt at the time outstanding as provided for in the applicable Loan Document or Additional Parity Debt Document.

Section 11.1(I) hereof, all outstanding Loans and other Obligations shall become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. The Administrative Agent may withhold from the Lenders notice of any continuing Default,
except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. 

(b) The Lenders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Loans by written notice to the Administrative Agent may on
behalf of all the Lenders rescind any acceleration with respect to the Loans and its consequences under this Agreement or the Collateral Documents (except if such rescission would conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction)

of Default; or 
 (iii) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured. 

(c) If a Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another default (the “Initial
Default”) occurs, then at the time such Initial Default is cured, such Default for a failure to report or failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another default that resulted solely because of that Initial Default will
also be cured without any further action and (ii) any Default or Event of Default for the failure to comply with the time periods prescribed under Section 9.01 or otherwise to deliver any notice or certificate pursuant to any other
provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to be cured upon the delivery of any such report required by such covenant or such notice or certificate, as applicable, even though such delivery is not within the prescribed period specified herein.

are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 12 (other than
Section 12.1(c) with respect to the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Joint Bookrunners and Section 12.9 with respect to the Borrower) are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have
rights as third party beneficiary of any such provision. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and
in the other Loan Documents, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist
against the Administrative Agent. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or
trust with or for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby irrevocably designate and
appoint the Collateral Agent as the agent with respect to the Collateral, and each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, or
any fiduciary relationship with any of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist
against the Collateral Agent. 
 (c) Each of the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, each in its capacity as such, shall not have
any obligations, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement but shall be entitled to all benefits of this Section 12. 

  
 -116- 








 12.2. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may each
execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents, sub-agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Neither the
Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the negligence, bad faith or misconduct of any agents, subagents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (as
determined in the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). 
 12.3. Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent nor
any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document
(except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, as determined in the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein) or (b) responsible
in any manner to any of the Lenders or any participant for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any of the Borrower, any other 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 such 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, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Collateral Documents, or for any failure of the Borrower or any
other Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof. The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to ascertain or to
inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. 

12.4. Reliance by Agents. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in
relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or instruction believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or
made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. The Administrative
Agent may deem and treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of
the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in 

  
 -117- 








 
accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the
Loans; provided that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or in the opinion of its counsel, may expose it to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or
applicable Requirements of Law. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 6 hereof on the Closing Date, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or
accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the
proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto. 
 12.5. Notice of Default. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the
Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring
to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall give notice thereof to the Lenders and the
Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders, provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have
received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the
Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement requires that such action be taken only with the approval of the Required Lenders or each of the Lenders, as applicable). 

12.6. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the
Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to any Lender. Each
Lender represents to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and each other Loan Party and made its own decision to make its Loans
hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself
as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and any other Loan Party. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the
Administrative Agent hereunder, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, assets, operations, properties,
financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any other Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. 
 12.7. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the
extent not reimbursed by the Loan Parties and without limiting the obligation of the Loan 

  
 -118- 








 
Parties to do so), ratably according to their respective portions of the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding on the date on which indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is
sought after the date upon which the Senior Interim Loan Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding
immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time
following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Senior Interim Loan 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 the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing, provided that no
Lender shall be liable to an Agent for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s, gross negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, further, that no action taken by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the directions of the Required
Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Loan Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 12.7. In the case of any
investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time occur (including at any time
following the payment of the Loans), this Section 12.7 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each
Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement
(whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice rendered in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent
that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower, provided that such reimbursement by the Lenders shall not affect the Borrower’s continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. If any
indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such
additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess
of such Lender’s pro rata portion thereof; and provided, further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment,
suit, cost, expense or disbursement resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this
Section 12.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. The indemnity provided to each Agent under this Section 12.7 shall also apply to such Agent’s respective Affiliates, directors,
officers, members, controlling persons, employees, trustees, investment advisors and agents and successors. 
 12.8. Agents in Their
Individual Capacities. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. Each Agent and its
Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower and any other Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to the Loans
made by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall
include each Agent in its individual capacity. 

  
 -119- 








 12.9. Successor Agents. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may at
any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
so long as no Default under Section 11.1 hereof is continuing, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor
shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent
meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless
become effective in accordance with such notice. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hereunder, and upon the transfer by the retiring (or retired) Agent to
the successor Agent of all sums, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Agent under the Loan Documents, and upon the execution and filing or recording
of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to continue the
perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring
Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower (following the effectiveness of
such appointment) to such Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the
provisions of this Section 12 (including Section 12.7 hereof) and Section 13.5 hereof shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 Agent was acting as an Agent. 
 12.10. Withholding
Tax. To the extent required by any applicable Requirement of Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of
the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or
because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) or if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines
that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding Tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been
reimbursed by any applicable Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any applicable Loan Party to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties, additions to
Tax and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing
to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 12.10. The agreements in Section 12.10 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of
the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Senior Interim Loan Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. 

  
 -120- 








 12.11. Agents Under Collateral Documents and Guarantee. Each Secured Party hereby further
authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of the Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral and the Collateral
Documents. Subject to Section 13.1, without further written consent or authorization from any Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may execute any documents or instruments necessary to
(a) release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) under any Loan Document (i) upon the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of all
Obligations (except for contingent indemnification obligations in respect of which a claim has not yet been made), (ii) that is sold or to be sold or transferred as part of or in connection with any sale or other transfer permitted hereunder or
under any other Loan Document to a Person that is not a Loan Party or in connection with the designation of any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (iii) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Loan Party, upon the
release of such Loan Party from its Guarantee otherwise in accordance with the Loan Documents, (iv) as otherwise permitted by this Agreement (including Section 10.2 hereof), (v) as and to the extent provided in the Collateral
Documents or (vi) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 13.1; (b) release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a
result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or the Guarantee; (c) subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any
Loan Document to the holder of any Lien permitted under clauses (7) (solely with respect to Section 9.7(b)(4)), (8), and (18) of the definition of Permitted Lien; or (d) enter into subordination or
intercreditor agreements with respect to Indebtedness to the extent the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is otherwise contemplated herein as being a party to such intercreditor or subordination agreement, including the Intercreditor
Agreement. 
 The Collateral Agent shall have its own independent right to demand payment of the amounts payable by the Borrower under this
Section 12.11, irrespective of any discharge of the Borrower’s obligations to pay those amounts to the other Lenders resulting from failure by them to take appropriate steps in insolvency proceedings affecting the Borrower to
preserve their entitlement to be paid those amounts. 
 Any amount due and payable by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent under this
Section 12.11 shall be decreased to the extent that the other Lenders have received (and are able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under the other provisions of the Loan Documents and any amount due and payable by
the Borrower to the Collateral Agent under those provisions shall be decreased to the extent that the Collateral Agent has received (and is able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under this Section 12.11. 

12.12. Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guarantee. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Agents, and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that
all powers, rights, and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights, and remedies under
the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent or
any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and 

  
 -121- 








 
representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled,
for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any
collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition. 
 12.13. Intercreditor Agreement Governs. The
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and each Lender (a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any intercreditor agreement entered into pursuant to the terms hereof (including the
Intercreditor Agreement) and (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Collateral Agent to enter into each intercreditor agreement to be entered into pursuant to the terms hereof (including the Intercreditor Agreement) and to subject the Liens
securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof. 
  

	 	SECTION 13.	Miscellaneous 

 13.1. Amendments, Waivers and Releases. 

(a) Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof, may
be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.1. The Required Lenders may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may,
from time to time, (a) enter into with the relevant Loan Party or Loan Parties written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder, (b) waive in writing, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent as
the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences or (c) consent to amendments, supplements or modifications to the
form of the Senior Refinancing Indenture prior to the Interim Loan Conversion Date; provided, however, that each such waiver and each such amendment, supplement or modification shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which given; provided, further, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive or reduce any portion of any Loan, extend the final scheduled maturity date of any
Loan or reduce the stated rate (it being understood that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate or amend Section 2.8(e) hereto), or forgive
any portion, or extend the date for the payment, of any interest or fee or other amount payable hereunder (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or extend the final expiration date of
any Lender’s Senior Interim Loan Commitment, or increase the amount of the Senior Interim Loan Commitment of any Lender, or make any Loan, interest, fee or other amount payable in any currency other than Dollars, in each case without the
written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 13.1, or amend or modify any of the provisions of Section 13.8(a) hereto to the extent
it would alter the ratable allocation of payments thereunder, or reduce the percentages specified in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or specified with reference to “Required Holders”, consent to the assignment or
transfer by the Borrower of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document to which it is a party (except as permitted pursuant to Section 11.3) or alter the order of application set forth in Section 11.3 or modify any
definition used in Section 11.3 if the effect thereof would be to alter the order of payment specified therein, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (iii) amend, modify
or waive any provision of Section 12 without the written consent of the then-current Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, or any other former or current Agent to whom Section 12 then applies in a manner that directly
and adversely affects such Person, or (iv) affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or 

  
 -122- 








 
other amounts payable to, any Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of such Agent, or (v) amend, modify or waive any provision of
Section 2.14 hereto without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (vi) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors under the Guarantee (except as expressly permitted by the Guarantee,
the Intercreditor Agreement or this Agreement) or release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents (except as expressly permitted by the Collateral Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or this Agreement) without
the prior written consent of each Lender or (vii) amend or modify any provision of the Senior Refinancing Indenture that requires (or would, if any Senior Notes were outstanding, require) the approval of all holders of Senior Notes, without the
written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the affected Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, such Lenders, the
Administrative Agent and all future holders of the affected Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents,
and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; it being understood that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. In
connection with the foregoing provisions, the Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligations to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, without notice to or the consent of any Lenders and without any further action necessary by the parties
hereto, effective as of the Interim Loan Conversion Date, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms contained in Sections 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 hereof (and related definitions) and the corresponding terms
contained in the Senior Refinancing Indenture, such provisions of this Agreement shall be replaced with corresponding provisions of the Senior Refinancing Indenture, and, to the extent necessary to give effect to the foregoing, each defined term
used in the sections of the Senior Refinancing Indenture shall have the meaning set forth in the Senior Refinancing Indenture, subject to the terms of Section 1.2(h) hereof, as applicable. The applicable provisions of the Senior
Refinancing Indenture as described in the form of indenture attached as Exhibit B hereto shall be deemed incorporated and set forth in this Agreement to the extent necessary to give effect to the foregoing. In furtherance of the foregoing,
the Administrative Agent will (and the Lenders hereby authorize and direct the Administrative Agent to), at the request of the Borrower, enter into such technical amendments and other modifications to this Agreement as are reasonably necessary to
effect the foregoing. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or
disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Senior Interim Loan Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Senior Interim Loan Commitments or
Loans held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders). 

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if any amendment, waiver or other modification would by its terms
disproportionately affect the holders of any one or more classes of Loans, such amendment, waiver or other modification shall also require the consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding amount
of such class or classes of Loans, voting as a single class and (ii) if any amendment, waiver or other modification would only affect the holders of any one class of Loans, consent of the respective holders, if applicable, holding at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding amount of such class of Loans, if any are outstanding, and not the consent of the Lenders holding a majority of Loans as the case may be, acting as a single class, shall be required.


  
 -123- 








 (e) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as
applicable, to execute and deliver any instruments, documents, and agreements necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.6 or the release of any Collateral pursuant to Section 10.2,
respectively, all without the further consent or joinder of any Lender. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including,
without limitation, this Section 13.1) or any other Loan Document to the contrary, (i) no Lender consent is required to effect any amendment or supplement to the Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement or
arrangement permitted under this Agreement that is for the purpose of adding the holders of any Indebtedness as expressly contemplated by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or such other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under
this Agreement, as applicable (it being understood that any such amendment or supplement may make such other changes to the applicable intercreditor agreement as, in the good faith determination of the Collateral Agent, are required to effectuate
the foregoing; provided that such other changes are not adverse, in any material respect, to the interests of the Lenders taken as a whole); provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise directly and
adversely affect the rights or duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent; (ii) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended
by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to (x) cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) and (y) to
effect administrative changes of a technical or immaterial nature and such amendment shall be deemed approved by the Lenders if the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice of such change and the
Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment; and (iii) guarantees,
collateral documents and related documents executed by Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with any other Loan Document, entered into, amended,
supplemented or waived, without the consent of any other Person, by the applicable Loan Party or Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in its or their respective sole discretion, to (A) 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, (B) as required by local law or advice of counsel 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 requirements of law, or (C) to cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects (as
reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) or to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Collateral Document to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole
discretion, grant extensions of time for the satisfaction of any of the requirements under any Collateral Documents in respect of any particular Collateral or any particular Subsidiary if it determines that the satisfaction thereof with respect to
such Collateral or such Subsidiary cannot be accomplished without undue expense or unreasonable effort or due to factors beyond the control of Holdings, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries by the time or times at which it would otherwise be
required to be satisfied under this Agreement or any Collateral Document. 
 13.2. Notices. Unless otherwise expressly provided
herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing (including by facsimile transmission). All such written notices shall be mailed, faxed or delivered to the applicable address,

13.3. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges
provided by Requirements of Law. 
 13.4. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made
hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans hereunder. 

13.5. Payment of Expenses; Indemnification. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Agents for all their reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and execution and delivery of, and any amendment, waiver, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents

(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each Lender and Agent from, any and all recording and filing fees and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each Lender and Agent and their
respective Related Parties from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether or not such
proceedings are brought by the Borrower, any of its Related Parties or any other third Person, including reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of 

  
 -125- 








 
one primary counsel for all such Persons, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, by a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for all such Persons, taken as a whole (unless
there is an actual or perceived conflict of interest in which case each such Person may, with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) retain its own counsel), with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement,
performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law
(other than by such indemnified person or any of its Related Parties (other than any trustee or advisor)) (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that the Borrower
shall have no obligation hereunder to any Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Related Parties with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent it has been determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified or any of its Related Parties, (ii) any material breach (or, in the case of a proceeding brought by the Borrower,
any breach) of any Loan Document by the party to be indemnified or (iii) disputes, claims, demands, actions, judgments or suits not arising from any act or omission by the Borrower or its Affiliates, brought by an indemnified Person against any
other indemnified Person (other than disputes, claims, demands, actions, judgments or suits involving claims against any Agent in its capacity as such). No Person entitled to indemnification under clause (d) of this
Section 13.5 shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through internet, electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems (including IntraLinks
or SyndTrak Online) in connection with this Agreement, except to the extent that such damages have resulted from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of the party to be indemnified or any of its Related Parties (as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision), nor shall any such Person, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages (including, without
limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date). All amounts
payable under this Section 13.5 shall be paid within 10 Business Days of receipt by the Borrower of an invoice relating thereto setting forth such expense in reasonable detail. The agreements in this Section 13.5 shall
survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. This Section 13.5 shall not apply with respect to any claims for Taxes which shall be governed exclusively by Section 5.4 and, to the extent set forth
therein, Section 2.10. 
 13.6. Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) except as expressly permitted by Section 11.3 hereof, the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent and 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 13.6. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to
the extent provided in clause (c) of this Section 13.6) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders and each other Person
entitled to indemnification under Section 13.5) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (b)(ii) below, any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or
a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Senior Interim Loan Commitments and the Loans at the time 

  
 -126- 








 
owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; it being understood that, without limitation, the Borrower shall have the right to withhold or
delay its consent to any assignment if, in order for such assignment to comply with applicable law, the Borrower would be required to obtain the consent of, or make any filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority) of: 

(I) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to (1) a Lender, an
Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund, (2) if an Event of Default under Section 11.1(I)(a), (b), (f) or (g) hereof has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee, (3) if a Demand Failure
Event has occurred, any other assignee (4) such assignment occurs on or after the Interim Loan Conversion Date, any other assignee or (5) prior to the Interim Loan Conversion Date, if, after giving effect to such assignment, the Committed
Lenders would hold, in the aggregate, 51% or more of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans, any other assignee; and 

(II) the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of
the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such assignment shall be made to a natural person. 

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

(III) 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 Senior Interim Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Senior Interim Loan Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the
Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (which consents
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 11.1(I)(a), (b), (f) or (g) hereof has occurred
and is continuing; provided further that contemporaneous assignments to a single assignee made by Affiliates of Lenders and related Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting the minimum assignment amount requirements
stated above; 
 (IV) 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; 
 (V) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an electronic settlement system or other method reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided that
the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive or reduce such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment; 

(VI) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a
form approved by the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Questionnaire”); and 
 (VII) any assignment
to Holdings, a Borrower or any Subsidiary shall also be subject to the requirements of Section 13.6(h). 

  
 -127- 








 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (b)(iv) of this
Section 13.6, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Acceptance 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 2.10, 2.11,
5.4 and 13.5 hereof). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender
of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (c) of this Section 13.6. For the avoidance of doubt, in case of an assignment to a new Lender pursuant to this Section 13.6,
(i) the Administrative Agent, the new Lender and other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed had the new Lender been an original Lender signatory to this
Agreement with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the assignment and to the extent of the assignment the assigning Lender shall each be released from further obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) the
benefit of each Collateral Document shall be maintained in favor of the new Lender. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this
purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, the Senior Interim
Loan Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Further, each Register shall contain the name and address of the Administrative Agent and
the lending office through which each such Person acts under this Agreement. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent 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, the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, the
Collateral Agent and, with respect to itself, any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (v)
Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and
recordation fee referred to in clause (b) of this Section 13.6 (unless waived) and any written consent to such assignment required by clause (b) of this Section 13.6, the Administrative Agent shall
accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register. 

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other
entities (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Senior Interim Loan Commitments and the Loans owing to it), provided
that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (C) the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent 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 or any other Loan Document, provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will 

  
 -128- 








 
not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clause (i) of the proviso to Section 13.1 that affects such
Participant. Subject to clause (c)(ii) of this Section 13.6, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.10, 2.11 and 5.4 hereof to the same extent as if it
were a Lender (subject to the limitations and requirements of those Sections as though it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 13.6, including the requirements of
clauses (d), (e), (h) and (i) of Section 5.4). To the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.8(b) hereof as though
it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 13.8(a) hereof as though it were a Lender. 

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.10, 2.11 or 5.4 hereof than
the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that the Participant shall be subject to the provisions in Section 2.12 as if it were an assignee under clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 13.6.
Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of
each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”). 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. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion
of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Senior Interim Loan Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except
to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Senior Interim Loan Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. 

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all
or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this
Section 13.6 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. The Borrower hereby agrees that, upon request of any Lender at any time and from time to time after the Borrower has made its initial borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall provide to such
Lender, at the Borrower’s own expense, a promissory note, substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto, as the case may be, evidencing the Loans, owing to such Lender. 

(e) Subject to Section 13.16 hereof, the Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant, secured creditor of such
Lender or assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates that has been delivered to such Lender by or on
behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement or that has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrower and its
Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement. 
 (f) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,”
and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually


  
 -129- 








 
executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in
Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

(g) SPV Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a
special purpose funding vehicle (a “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that
such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise
such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Senior Interim Loan Commitment
of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for
which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment
in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it shall not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, Insolvency or Liquidation
Proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.6, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of,
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and Administrative
Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency,
commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. This Section 13.6(g) may not be amended without the written consent of the SPV. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, subject to the following sentence, each SPV shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 5.4 to the same extent as if it were a Lender (subject to the limitations and requirements of Sections
2.10, 2.11 and 5.4 as though it were a Lender and has acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 13.6, including the requirements of clauses (d), (e),
(h) and (i) of Section 5.4). Notwithstanding the prior sentence, an SPV shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.10, 2.11 or 5.4 than its Granting Lender would
have been entitled to receive absent the grant to such SPV, unless such grant to such SPV is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Loans to Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary and (y) Holdings, the Borrower and any Subsidiary may, from time to time, purchase or prepay Loans, in each case, on a non-pro rata basis on a
pro rata basis in accordance with Section 5.1(b); provided that any Loans acquired by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall be retired and cancelled promptly upon the acquisition thereof; 

13.7. Replacements of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances. 

(a) The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to
Section 2.10 or 5.4 hereof, (b) is affected in the manner described in Section 2.10(a)(iii) hereof and as a result thereof any of the actions described in such Section


  
 -130- 








 
is required to be taken or (c) becomes a Defaulting Lender, with a replacement bank or other financial institution, provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any
Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default under Section 11.1(I)(a), (b), (f) or (g) hereof shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the Borrower shall repay
(or the replacement bank or institution shall purchase, at par) all Loans and other amounts (other than any disputed amounts), pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11 or 5.4 hereof, as the case may be) owing to such replaced Lender
prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a Lender, and the terms and conditions of such replacement, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (v) the replaced Lender
shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6 hereof (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein) and (vi) any
such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. 

(b) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge
or termination that pursuant to the terms of Section 13.1 hereof requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default then
exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans, and its Senior Interim Loan Commitments hereunder to
one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided that (a) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender
concurrently with such assignment and (b) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In connection with any
such assignment, the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 13.6 hereof. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party hereto agrees that any assignment pursuant to the terms of this
Section 13.7 may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender making such assignment need not be a party thereto. 

13.8. Adjustments; Set-off. 

(a) If any Lender (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment in respect of any principal of or interest on
all or part of the Loans made by it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 11.1(I)(f) or
(g) hereof, or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon, such benefited Lender shall
(i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (ii) purchase for cash at face value from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loans, or shall provide such other Lenders with the
benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal of and accrued
interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided, however, that, (A) if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded,
and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest and (B) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (1) any payment made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party
pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (2) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or Senior Interim
Loan 

  
 -131- 








 
Commitments to any assignee or participant or (3) any disproportionate payment obtained by a Lender as a result of the extension by Lenders of the maturity date or expiration date of some
but not all Loans or Senior Interim Loan Commitments or any increase in the Applicable LIBOR Margin in respect of Loans or Senior Interim Loan Commitments of Lenders that have consented to any such extension. Each Loan Party consents to the
foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Requirements of Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of set-off and counterclaim with
respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation. 

(b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by
Requirements of Law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, upon any amount becoming due and payable
by the Borrower hereunder or under any Loan Document (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or
final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof
to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower (and the Loan Parties, if applicable) and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided that the
failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
 13.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may
be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission, i.e. a “pdf” or a “tif”), and all of said counterparts taken together
shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

13.10. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 13.11. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement
of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent nor any Lender relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the Fee Letter remains in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

 13.12. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED
AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 13.13. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party
hereto irrevocably and unconditionally: 
 (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating
to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and 

  
 -132- 








 
enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern
District of New York, in each case sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan, and appellate courts from any thereof; 

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding shall be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same or to commence or support any such action or proceeding
in any other courts; 
 (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy
thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Person at its address set forth on Schedule 13.2 hereto at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been
notified pursuant to Section 13.2 hereto and each Loan Party that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States hereby appoints the Borrower as its agent for service of process in any matter related to this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents; 
 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any other Secured Party to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by Requirements of Law or shall limit the right to sue or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrower
or any other Loan Party in any other jurisdiction;

 -134- 








 
access to information regarding the Loan Parties, the Loans and Loan Documents in connection with ratings issued with respect to a securitization, (f) to the extent that such information
becomes publicly available other than by reason of disclosure in violation of this Section 13.16; (g) to the extent that such information is received from a third party that is not, to such Lender’s, Administrative Agent’s
or other Agent’s knowledge, subject to confidentiality obligations owing to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (h) to the extent that such information was already in such Lender’s, Administrative Agent’s or other
Agent’s possession prior to entering into this Agreement or is independently developed by such Lender, Administrative Agent or other Agent and (h) for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense; provided that
unless specifically prohibited by applicable Requirements of Law, rule or regulation, each Lender, the Administrative Agent and each other Agent shall endeavor to notify the Borrower (without any liability for a failure to so notify the Borrower) of
any request made to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such other Agent, as applicable, by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with a routine or ordinary

 13.17. [Reserved]. 

13.18. Direct Website Communications. 

(a) The Borrower may, at its option, provide to the Administrative Agent any information, documents and other materials that it is obligated
to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such
communication that (A) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing, borrowing or other extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or interest period relating thereto), (B) relates to the payment of
any principal or other amount due under any Domestic Priority Debt prior to the scheduled date therefor, (C) provides notice of any default or event of default under this Agreement or (D) is required to be delivered to satisfy any
condition precedent to the effectiveness of any Domestic Priority Debt (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium
in a format reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to the Administrative Agent at an email address provided by the Administrative Agent from time to time; provided that: (i) upon written request by the Administrative Agent, the
Borrower shall deliver paper copies of such documents to the Administrative Agent for further distribution to each Lender until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Borrower shall
notify (which may be by facsimile or electronic mail) the Administrative Agent of the posting of any such documents and provide to the Administrative Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents. Each Lender
shall be solely responsible for timely accessing posted documents or requesting delivery of paper copies of such documents from the Administrative Agent and maintaining its copies of such documents. Nothing in this Section 13.18 shall
prejudice the right of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document. 

  
 -135- 








 (b) The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative
Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying
that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees (A) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing
(including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (B) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address. 

(c) The Borrower further agrees that any Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on
Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”), so long as the access to such Platform (i) is limited to the Agents, the Lenders and Transferees or prospective Transferees and
(ii) remains subject to the confidentiality requirements set forth in Section 13.16. 
 (d) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED
“AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY MATERIALS OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE LOAN PARTIES (THE “BORROWER MATERIALS”) OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM,
AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD
PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the
“Agent Parties” and each an “Agent Party”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender, or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or
otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the internet, except to the extent the liability of any Agent Party resulted from such Agent Party’s (or any of its
Related Parties’ (other than any trustee or advisor)) gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of the Loan Documents. 

(e) The Borrower and each Lender acknowledge that certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (Lenders that do not wish to
receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their securities) and, if documents or notices required to be delivered pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise are being distributed through the Platform,
any document or notice that the Borrower has indicated contains only publicly available information with respect to the Borrower may be posted on that portion of the Platform designated for such public-side Lenders. If the Borrower has not indicated
whether a document or notice delivered contains only publicly available information, the Administrative Agent shall post such document or notice solely on that portion of the Platform designated for Lenders who wish to receive material nonpublic
information with respect to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to indicate whether any document or notice contains only publicly available
information. 
 13.19. USA PATRIOT Act and Anti-Money Laundering Legislation. 

(a) The Agents and each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L.
107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and
other information that will allow such Agent and such Lender to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. 
 (b) The
Agents and each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government
sanction and “know your client” laws, whether within Canada or elsewhere (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, “AML Legislation”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Agent and such Lender to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the AML Legislation. 

  
 -136- 








 13.20. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower
is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent 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 such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such
recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to
pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any 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
applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. 
 13.21. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall continue to be effective, or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or
reorganization of the Borrower, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments
had not been made. 
 13.22. No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of
this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their Affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be
deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that
(i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the
other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates
on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management,
stockholders or creditors. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such
transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with such
transaction or the process leading thereto. 

  
 -137- 








 13.23. Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereunder (a) acknowledges that it has
received a copy of the Intercreditor Agreement, (b) agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, (c) authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into the
Intercreditor Agreement as Administrative Agent and on behalf of such Lender and (d) hereby consents to the subordination of the Liens securing the Obligations on the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. The foregoing provisions are
intended as an inducement to the lenders under the ABL Debt Documents to extend credit to the Loan Parties and such lenders are intended third party beneficiaries of such provisions. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the
provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control. 
 13.24.
Currency Indemnity. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it becomes necessary to convert into a particular currency (the “Judgment
Currency”) any amount due under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”), then conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the
Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For this purpose “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Administrative Agent is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment Currency in
accordance with its normal practice at its head office in Toronto, Ontario. In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the
Administrative Agent of the amount due, the Borrower will, on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent, pay such additional amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that
the amount received by the Administrative Agent on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent is the amount then due under this
Agreement or such other Loan Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due which the Administrative Agent is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, the Borrower shall indemnify and
save the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against all loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Administrative Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or under any judgment or order.

 Agreed Security Principles 

The Borrower and the Guarantors will use their commercially reasonable efforts to grant, or take perfection actions that are required
under applicable law with respect to, a second priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Agreed Security Principles) to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Lenders (and, to the
extent any Permitted Additional Parity Debt is outstanding, the lenders or holders of such Permitted Additional Parity Debt) in all assets that secure the North American ABL Facility or any other future Domestic Priority Debt. However, if after the
use of commercially reasonable efforts, the Borrower or the applicable Guarantor determines in good faith that it cannot grant such security interest to, or cannot accomplish the required or necessary perfection actions under the applicable laws of
any jurisdiction outside the United States and Canada for the benefit of, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, without undue burden or expense or because the laws of a particular jurisdiction do
not recognize the concept of a “second priority lien” or “second priority security interest,” the Borrower and the Guarantors shall not be required to grant such security interest and/or accomplish such perfection actions, even
if a security interest has been granted to, or such perfection actions have been accomplished for the benefit of, any holders of Domestic Priority Debt (such collateral shall be referred to as “Excluded Collateral” and such excepted
perfection actions shall be referred to as “Excluded Actions”).  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
Loan Documents, any Guarantees and any Obligations under this Agreement will not be secured by any assets, and the Borrower and the applicable Guarantors will not be required to accomplish any perfection actions under the applicable laws of any
jurisdiction for the benefit of, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, to the extent that holders of Domestic Priority Debt (i) are not granted a Lien on such assets or do not receive a
perfected security interest in such assets under the applicable laws of any jurisdiction for any reason, (ii) waive any requirement to grant a Lien on, or accomplish perfection actions under the applicable laws of any jurisdiction for, such
assets or (iii) release their Lien on, or perfected security interest in, such assets (or if such Lien is automatically released) (other than in the case of this clause (iii) if such release occurs in connection with the discharge in
full of all obligations owing under such Domestic Priority Debt which discharge (A) is not in connection with a foreclosure of, or other exercise of remedies with respect to, such assets or (B) is not in connection with a replacement or
refinancing of such Domestic Priority Debt, it being understood that in the case of this clause (B) the Notes will be secured on a second priority basis by Collateral that secures the Domestic Priority Debt that is outstanding after giving
effect to any such replacement or refinancing, subject to the Agreed Security Principles). 
 For the avoidance of doubt, the following
categories shall be deemed to be Excluded Collateral: 
  

	 	•	 	if the cost of providing such guarantee or lien and/or perfecting such security interest on a second priority basis is not proportionate to the benefit accruing to the Lenders; 


 

	 	•	 	if there is material incremental cost or expense involved in creating, granting or perfecting a second priority lien or security interest over the assets of the Borrower or applicable Guarantor in a particular category
of assets and/or a particular jurisdiction, only the material assets in that category and/or jurisdiction will be subject to such lien if doing so would result in a savings of such material incremental cost or expense (it being understood that if
the whole category of such assets is not material, then no actions shall be required to be taken in respect of such category and/or in such jurisdiction); 

  

	 	•	 	 if providing and/or perfecting such lien on a second priority basis (i) requires consent before such assets may be secured and/or perfected or
(ii) where providing and/or 



  
 Annex 1-1 









	 	 
perfecting such lien would, without the consent of a third party, give such third party the right to terminate or otherwise amend any rights, benefits and/or obligations of the Borrower or the
Guarantors in respect of those assets or require any of them to take any action materially adverse to their interests and (subject to certain conditions being met) in respect of either clause (i) or (ii) such consent cannot be
obtained after the use of commercially reasonable efforts; 


  

	 	•	 	if providing and/or perfecting such lien on a second lien basis would be prohibited by applicable law, general statutory limitations, financial assistance, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, “thin
capitalization” rules or similar matters or providing and/or perfecting security would be outside the applicable pledgor’s capacity or conflict with fiduciary duties of directors or cause material risk of personal or criminal liability
after the use of commercially reasonable efforts to overcome such prohibitions (if possible); 

  

	 	•	 	if in certain jurisdictions it may be either impossible or impractical to create and/or perfect a second lien priority lien over certain categories of assets or over all assets, such lien will not be granted and/or
required to be perfected over such assets in such jurisdictions; 

  

	 	•	 	if providing and/or perfecting such lien would have a material adverse effect (as reasonably determined in good faith by Holdings) on the ability of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries to conduct its operations and
business in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted by this Agreement and any requirement under the Agreed Security Principles to seek consent of any person or take or not take any other action shall be subject to this principle;


  

	 	•	 	no perfection action will be required in jurisdictions where the Borrower or a Guarantor is not located or organized but perfection action or actions to make enforceable any lien may be required in the jurisdiction of
another Subsidiary or where the assets of the Borrower or such Guarantor may also be located and no perfection action will be required in any supra-national registries; 


 

	 	•	 	in the case of bank or securities accounts not located in the United States or Canada, if providing such lien and/or perfecting liens thereon would require giving notice to the banks with whom such accounts are
maintained, such notice will only be provided after the Notes are accelerated (it being understood that whether located in the United States, Canada or elsewhere, control agreements (or similar perfection arrangements) with respect to any Collateral
shall only be required to be entered into after the discharge in full of all Domestic Priority Debt secured by such Collateral; 

  

	 	•	 	in the case of receivables, notification of receivables security to debtors and of liens over goods held by third parties will only be provided after the Notes are accelerated, subject to certain exceptions; and


  

	 	•	 	if the Administrative Agent or Notes Collateral Agent, as applicable, is unable to or refuses to execute the guarantee or any joinder to provide for a guarantee or security documents or otherwise cooperate in the
provision of such guarantee or the granting of such liens and/or the taking of such actions required to perfect a lien in any such assets. 


The Agreed Security Principles with respect to the Notes will be interpreted and applied in good faith by Holdings. 

  
 -2- 








 If the Borrower or a Guarantor is not required to grant a security interest or accomplish
perfection actions due to the exceptions set forth in this Annex I, the Borrower or such Guarantor shall not be permitted to grant such security interest or accomplish such perfection actions for the benefit of the holders of any Indebtedness of
Holdings, the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Foreign Subsidiary or a Canadian CFC unless such Indebtedness is Domestic Priority Debt. 

To the extent the North American ABL Facility is secured in Canada by security taken under Section 427 (or any successor
provision) of the Bank Act (Canada), the Collateral Agent and the Lenders will not meet the requirements under that Act for taking the same security on a second lien basis in Canada. Instead, the Collateral Agent will be granted a second
priority security interest in the same Collateral covered by the Bank Act security through more typical security granting instruments and related filings under the PPSA.
