(2) the sum of: (a) Daily Simple SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

Benchmark Replacement for the applicable Corresponding Tenor;

(b) the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such 

Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that would apply to the fallback rate for a derivative transaction referencing

Tenor; and

calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the

Lender for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, 

or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable 

Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date or (ii) 

any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such 

spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. dollardenominated syndicated credit facilities;

provided that, in the case of clause (1) above, such adjustment is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such 

Benchmark Replacement Adjustment from time to time as selected by the Lender in its reasonable discretion; provided that, any such 

Benchmark Replacement Adjustment shall be administratively feasible as determined by the Lenderin its reasonable discretion.

requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and 

other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Lender decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and 

implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Lender in a manner substantially 

consistent with market practice (or, if the Lender decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively 

feasible or if the Lender determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such 

other manner of administration as the Lender decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Note and

administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such 

Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or

Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

existing on the Closing Date and any renewals or extensions thereof, provided that (i) the property covered thereby is not changed 

(except to include (A) after-acquired property that is already subject to such Lien or that is affixed or incorporated into the property 

covered by such Lien or financed by Indebtedness permitted by clause (1)(b) of this Part II above or (B) the proceeds of any such

another Subsidiary; and

among the Parent and its Subsidiaries. 

5. Sanctions; Use of Proceeds.

compliance with all applicable law to the extent permitted by the CARES Act; provided, however, that the proceeds of the 

Loans shall not be used for any non-operating expenses (including capital expenses, delinquent taxes and payments of 

principal on other Indebtedness), unless the Parent can demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the Lender, that payment of any 

such non-operating expense is necessary to optimize the continued operations of the Parent’s business and does not merely 

constitute a transfer of risk from an existing creditor or investor to the Federal taxpayer. 

6. Prepayments of Junior Indebtedness. The Parent will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any principal payment 

on, or redeem, repurchase, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, in each case prior to any scheduled repayment, sinking fund 

payment or maturity, any Indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations, in each case other than in connection 

with any refinancings, renewals, or extensions of such Indebtedness but only so long as: (a) such refinancings, renewals, or extensions 

do not result in an increase in the principal amount of the Indebtedness so refinanced, renewed, or extended, other than by the amount 

of premiums paid thereon and the fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith and by the amount of unfunded commitments 

with respect thereto; (b) such refinancings, renewals, or extensions do not result in a shortening of the average weighted maturity 

(measured as of the refinancing, renewal, or extension) of the Indebtedness so refinanced, renewed, or extended, nor are they on terms 

or conditions that, taken as a whole, are or could reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Lender; (c) if the 

Indebtedness that is refinanced, renewed, or extended was subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations, then the terms and 

conditions of the refinancing, renewal, or extension must include subordination terms and conditions that are at least as favorable to the 

Lender as those that were applicable to the refinanced, renewed, or extended Indebtedness; (d) the Indebtedness that is refinanced, 

renewed, or extended is not recourse to any Person that is liable on account of the Obligations other than those Persons which were 

obligated with respect to the Indebtedness that was refinanced, renewed, or extended and (e) to the extent the Indebtedness that is 
C-4 

#93564200v7 

refinanced, renewed, or extended is unsecured, the Indebtedness resulting from such refinancing, renewal or extension must be 

unsecured. 

7. Lobbying. The Parent will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly, or to the Parent or such Subsidiary’s knowledge, 

indirectly, use the proceeds of the Loans, or lend, contribute, or otherwise make available such proceeds to any other Person (i) for 

publicity or propaganda purposes designated to support or defeat legislation pending before the U.S. Congress or (ii) to fund any 

activities that would constitute “lobbying activities” as defined under 2 U.S.C. § 1602. The Parent shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries

ANNEX E 

GUARANTEE 

1. Guarantee of the Obligations. Each Guarantor jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Lender 

the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations (or such lesser amount as agreed by the Lender in its sole discretion) when the same shall 

become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would 

become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)) (collectively, the 

“Guaranteed Obligations”). 

2. Payment by a Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally agrees, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of 

any other right which the Lender may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of the Borrower to 

pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, 

acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of 

the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), such Guarantor will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Borrower an amount equal 

to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed 

Obligations (including interest which, but for the Borrower’s becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on 

such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against the Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all 

other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to the Lender as aforesaid. 

3. Liability of Guarantors Absolute. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and 

unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than 

payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees 

as follows: 

(a) this Guarantee is a guarantee of payment when due and not of collectability; 

(b) the Lender may enforce this Guarantee upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute 

between the Borrower and the Lender with respect to the existence of such Event of Default; 

(c) a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against 

the Borrower or any other Guarantors and whether or not the Borrower or such Guarantors are joined in any such action or actions; 

(d) payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge 

any other Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid; 

(e) the Lender, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability 

hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to 

time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of 

the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or 

substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) release, 

surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security 

for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guarantees of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person 

(including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; and (iv) enforce its rights and remedies even though such action 

may operate to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against the 

Borrower or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and 

(f) this Guarantee and the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any 

reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), 

including the occurrence of any of the following: (i) any failure, delay or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert 

or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or 

demand or any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, or with respect to any security for the payment of the 

Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or 

provisions hereof; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or 

unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the Lender’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of 

the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any defenses, set-offs or 

counterclaims which the Borrower or any Guarantor may allege or assert against the Lender in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, 

including failure of consideration, lack of authority, validity or enforceability, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of 

limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (vi) any other event or circumstance that might in any manner vary the risk of any 

Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. 
2 

4. Waivers by Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of the Lender: (a) any right to require the Lender, as a 

condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person; (ii) proceed 

against or exhaust any security in favor of the Lender; or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the power of the Lender whatsoever or (b) presentment 

to, demand for payment from and protest to the Borrower or any Guarantor or notice of acceptance; and (c) any defenses or benefits that may be 

derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof. 

5. Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, etc. Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full, each Guarantor 

hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against the Borrower or any 

other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guarantee or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, 

including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have 

against the Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that the 

Lender now has or may hereafter have against the Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now 

or hereafter held by the Lender. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise 

of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations. 

If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any 

time when all Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been finally and paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the Lender and shall 

forthwith be paid over to the Lender to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in 

accordance with the terms hereof. 

6. Subordination. Any indebtedness of the Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the “Obligee 

Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such indebtedness collected or received by the 

Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for the Lender and shall forthwith be paid over to 

the Lender to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability 

of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof. 

7. Continuing Guarantee. This Guarantee is a continuing guarantee and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall 

have been paid in full. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guarantee as to future transactions giving rise to any 

Guaranteed Obligations. 

8. Financial Condition of the Issuer. The Loan may be made to the Borrower without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor 

regardless of the financial or other condition of the Borrower at the time of such grant. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information 

from the Borrower on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of the Borrower and its ability to perform its obligations under the 

Agreement, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and of all 

circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. 

9. Reinstatement. In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by the Borrower or any Guarantor, the 

obligations of any other Guarantor hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event 

that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from the Lender as a preference, fraudulent transfer or 

otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder. 

10. Discharge of Guarantee Upon Sale of the Guarantor. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Agreement, all of the 

capital stock of any Guarantor that is a Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise 

disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) to any Person (other than to the Borrower or to any other Guarantor), the Guarantee of such 

Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action 

by any beneficiary or any other Person effective as of the time of such asset sale.
