WHEREAS, the Loan Parties desire to enter into a term loan agreement and related documents, instruments and agreements (as further defined in
the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby), the “Term Documents”) with, among others, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, pursuant to which, among other things, the Loan Parties desire to incur Debt and to secure such Debt by

 WHEREAS, in connection with the foregoing, the Loan Parties, the Agents and the Lenders have
agreed to amend certain other terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement as set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  

	1.	 Definitions. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined shall have the same
meanings herein as in the Credit Agreement. 


  

	2.	 Joinder and Assumption of Obligations. Effective as of the Second Amendment Effective Date, each New
Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has received and reviewed copies of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and acknowledges and agrees to, and does hereby: 



 

	 	(a)	 join in the execution of, and become a party to, the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document as a
Guarantor thereunder; 


  

	 	(b)	 agree to be bound by all representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, liabilities, and acknowledgments
of the Guarantors in the Credit Agreement, in each case, with the same force and effect as if such New Guarantor was a signatory to the Credit Agreement and was expressly named as a Guarantor therein; and 



 

	 	(c)	 without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 



 

	 	(i)	 absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled
maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations of each other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Loan Documents, any Secured Hedge Agreement, any Secured Bank
Product Agreement, or any Secured Cash Management Agreement (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing Obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or
contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premium, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such Obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”; provided that the Guaranteed Obligations shall not
include any Excluded Swap Obligations), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent, any other Lender Party, any Hedge Bank, any provider of Bank Products,
or any Cash Management Bank in enforcing any rights under, as applicable, this Guaranty, any other Loan Document, any Secured Hedge Agreement, Secured Bank Product Agreement, or any Secured Cash Management Agreement. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the liability of such New Guarantor shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Loan Party to any Lender Party or any Hedge Bank or any Cash Management Bank under or
in respect of, as applicable, the Loan Documents or any Secured Hedge Agreement, Secured Bank Product Agreement, or any Secured Cash Management Agreement but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a
bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Loan Party; 


  

	 	(ii)	 unconditionally and irrevocably agree that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Lender
Party under the Credit Agreement or any other 



  
 2 














	 	
guaranty, such New Guarantor will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, such amounts to each other Guarantor and each other guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate
amount paid to the Lender Parties or Hedge Banks or any Cash Management Bank under or in respect of, as applicable, the Loan Documents or any Secured Hedge Agreement, Secured Bank Product Agreement, or any Secured Cash Management Agreement; and


  

	 	(iii)	 agree to be bound as a Guarantor by all of the terms and conditions of the Guaranty, as set forth in the Credit
Agreement, to the same extent as each of the other Guarantors thereunder. Each New Guarantor further agrees, as of the date first above written, that each reference in the Credit Agreement to an “Additional Guarantor” or a
“Guarantor” shall also mean and be a reference to the undersigned, and each reference in any other Loan Document to a “Guarantor” or a “Loan Party”, as applicable, shall also
mean and be a reference to Holdings and Intermediate Holdings. 


  

	3.	 Amendments to Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:



  

	 	(a)	 Composite Credit Agreement. By deleting the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the
following example: stricken text) and by adding the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example:

1.06. SECTION 1.06. Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with
any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a
different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of
its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time. 
 SECTION 1.07. Limited Condition Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition
Transaction, for purposes of: 
 (a) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of any financial ratio or test, including, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio,
the Leverage Ratio or satisfaction of the Payment Conditions; or 

  
 57 














(b) determining compliance with
representations and warranties (other than Specified Representations) and defaults or events of default; or 

(c) testing availability under baskets set
forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of EBITDA); 
 in each case, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT
Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into (the “LCT Test
Date”) (provided that with respect to any required calculation of the Payment Conditions on the LCT Test Date, such calculation shall be effective only in the event that such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated within 180 days
following the LCT Test Date), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction, the Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with
such ratio, test, representations, warranties, defaults, specified defaults, events of default, or basket, such ratio, test, representations, warranties, defaults, specified defaults, events of default, or basket (including with respect to
satisfaction of the Payment Conditions in connection therewith) shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was
determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would have failed to have been satisfied as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in EBITDA, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction
or action, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have failed to have been satisfied as a result of such fluctuations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if the Borrower has made an
LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any event or transaction occurring after the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the
date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated, expires or passes, as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction (a “Subsequent Transaction”) in connection
with which a ratio, test or basket availability calculation must be made on a pro forma basis or giving pro forma effect to such Subsequent Transaction, for purposes of determining whether such ratio, test or basket availability has been complied
with under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be satisfied on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Debt and the use
of proceeds thereof) have been consummated until such time as the applicable Limited Condition Transaction has actually closed or the definitive agreement with respect thereto has been terminated (it being further understood and agreed, however,
that for other purposes under this Agreement, neither any Consolidated Net Income or EBITDA therefrom, nor any assets of the target to be acquired pursuant to such Limited Condition Acquisition, shall be included in Consolidated Net Income or
EBITDA, or in the calculation of the Borrowing Base, as applicable, in any such subsequent calculation until such Limited Condition Acquisition has actually closed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Limited Condition Transaction provisions set
forth above shall not apply in respect of the incurrence of any Advances (including, without limitation, a Letter of Credit Extension) or other credit extension hereunder, the proceeds of which will be used to finance such Limited Condition
Transaction.

 AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES 

AND THE LETTERS OF CREDIT 

SECTION 
2.01. SECTION 2.01. The Advances(a) . 

(a) The Revolving Credit Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Revolving Credit Lender severally
agrees to make revolving credit loans denominated in Dollars to the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02 (a “Revolving Credit Advance”) from time to time, on any Business Day until the Termination Date, in an
aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or an integral 

  
 58 













 
multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (other than a Borrowing the proceeds of which shall be used solely to repay or prepay in full outstanding Swing Line Advances or outstanding Letter of
Credit Advances) and shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances made simultaneously by the Revolving Credit Lenders ratably according to their Commitments; provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount of all such Revolving
Credit Advances (together with the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Advances then outstanding plus the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time) shall not exceed the Loan Cap then in effect, subject to
the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion to make Protective Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.01(d). Within the limits of each Revolving Credit Lender’s Unused Commitment in effect from time to
time, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(a), prepay pursuant to Section 2.06(a) and reborrow under this Section 2.01(a). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 2.01, the parties hereby acknowledge, confirm, and agree that (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advances under and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the
Effective Date (such
IndebtednessDebt
 being hereinafter referred to as the “Existing Advances Indebtedness”) is outstanding and payable to Lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement without set-off, counterclaim,
deduction, offset, or defense, and the L/C Obligations with respect to Existing Letters of Credit are reimbursable in accordance with the terms hereof, and are secured by a first priority security interest in and lien on the Collateral (subject to
Permitted Liens and other Liens created or permitted by the Loan Documents), and (ii) the Existing Advances Indebtedness shall be deemed outstanding under this Agreement and the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed issued under this
Agreement on the Effective Date. 
 (b) The Swing Line Advances. The Swing Line Bank agrees on the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth, to make Swing Line Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date (i) in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding
$30,000,000 at such time and (ii) in an amount for each such Swing Line Borrowing not to exceed the aggregate of the Unused Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders at such time; provided, however, that the aggregate principal
amount of all such Swing Line Advances (together with the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding plus the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time) shall not exceed the Loan
Cap then in effect, subject to the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion to make Protective Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.01(d). No Swing Line Advance shall be used for the purpose of funding the
payment of principal of any other Swing Line Advance. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be in an amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and shall be made as a Base Rate Advance. Within the limits of the Swing Line
Facility and within the limits referred to in clause (ii) above, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(b), repay pursuant to Section 2.04(b) or prepay pursuant to Section 2.06(a) and reborrow under
this Section 2.01(b). Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Advance, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Bank a risk participation in
such Swing Line Advance in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Swing Line Advance. 

	(c)	 [Intentionally Omitted]. 



(d) Protective Advances. Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) subject to the limitations set forth
below, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are authorized by the Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time in each of their sole discretion (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make Advances to the Borrower, on behalf of
all Lenders, which the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, in such Person’s reasonable discretion, deems necessary or desirable (A) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or (B) at any time
that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.02 are not satisfied (x) to 

  
 59 













 
preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (y) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Advances and other Obligations under the Loan
Documents or (z) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of principal, interest, Letter of Credit Advances, fees, reimbursable expenses (including
costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 9.04) and other sums payable under the Loan Documents (any of such Advance are herein referred to as “Protective Advances”); provided that no Protective
Advance shall cause the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Advances and Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding (together with the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time) to exceed the
Aggregate Commitments; provided, further, that the aggregate amount of Protective Advances outstanding at any time, which were made pursuant to clauses (x) and (y) above, shall not at any time exceed the lesser of
(1) $25,000,000 and (2) 10% of the Borrowing Base. Protective Advances shall be secured by Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. All Protective Advances shall be
Base Rate Advances. The Administrative Agent’s and the Collateral Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Required Lenders. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective
prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. At any time that there is sufficient Excess Availability and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 have been satisfied, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral
Agent may request the Revolving Credit Lenders to make a Revolving Credit Advances to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may require the Lenders to fund their risk participations as
described in clause (ii). The making by any Agent of a Protective Advance shall not modify or abrogate any of the provisions of Section 2.03 regarding the Lenders’ obligations to purchase participations with respect to Letter of
Credits or of Section 2.01(b) regarding the Lenders’ obligations to purchase participations with respect to Swing Line Loans. No Agent shall have any liability for, and no Loan Party or Secured Party shall have the right to, or
shall, bring any claim of any kind whatsoever against any Agent with respect to Unintentional Overadvances regardless of the amount of any such Overadvance(s). (ii) Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default), each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent, as applicable, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in any Protective Advance in proportion to its Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by
the Administrative Agent in respect of such Protective Advance. 

SECTION 
2.02. SECTION 2.02. Making the Advances. (a)  

(a)
Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.02(b) or 2.03, each Borrowing shall be made on notice (which may be delivered through the Administrative Agent’s electronic
platform or portal), given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or the first Business Day prior to the
date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Appropriate Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or electronic communication. Each
such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or by telecopier or electronic communication, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the
requested (1) date of such Borrowing, (2) Facility under which such Borrowing is to be made, (3) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (4) aggregate amount of such Borrowing and (5) in the case of a Borrowing
consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each Appropriate Lender shall, before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such 

  
 60 













 
Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable
portion of such Borrowing in accordance with the respective Commitments under the applicable Facility of such Lender and the other Appropriate Lenders. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the
applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower’s Account; provided, however, that, in the case of any Revolving Credit Borrowing,
the Administrative Agent shall first apply such funds to prepay ratably the aggregate principal amount of any Swing Line Advances and Letter of Credit Advances outstanding at such time, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon to and as of
such date. All Borrowing requests which are not made on-line via the Administrative Agent’s electronic platform or portal shall be subject to (and unless the Administrative Agent elects otherwise in the exercise of its sole discretion, such
Borrowings shall not be made until the completion of) the Administrative Agent’s authentication process (with results satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) prior to the funding of any such requested Advance. 

(b)(i) Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of the proposed
Swing Line Borrowing, by the Borrower to the Swing Line Bank and the Administrative Agent. Each such notice of a Swing Line Borrowing (a “Notice of Swing Line Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed promptly in writing,
or by telecopier or electronic communication, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) amount of such Borrowing and (iii) maturity of such Borrowing (which maturity shall be no
later than the seventh day after the requested date of such Borrowing). The Swing Line Bank will make the amount of the requested Swing Line Advances available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day
funds. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower’s
Account. 
 (ii) The Swing Line Bank may, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, request on behalf of the Borrower
(and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Bank to so request on its behalf) that each Revolving Credit Lender make a Base Rate Advance in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing Line Advances
then outstanding. Such request shall be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing for purposes hereof and shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02(a) without regard solely to the minimum amounts specified in
Section 2.01(b) but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. The Swing Line Bank shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Notice of Borrowing promptly after delivering such
notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Notice of Borrowing available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Swing Line Bank, by deposit to the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day specified in such Notice of Borrowing. 

(iii) If for any reason any Swing Line Advance cannot be refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing as contemplated by
Section 2.02(b)(ii), the request for Base Rate Advances submitted by the Swing Line Bank as set forth in Section 2.02(b)(ii) shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Bank that each of the Revolving Credit Lenders
fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Advance and each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Bank pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(ii) shall be deemed payment in
respect of such participation. 

  
 61 













 (iv) If and to the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have
made the amount of its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Advance available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02(b)(ii), such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of the applicable Notice of Borrowing delivered by the Swing Line Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. 

(v) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances or to purchase and fund risk
participations in Swing Line Advance pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right
which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Bank, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to
any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) is subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 3.02. No funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Advances, together with interest as provided herein. 

(c) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for
any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $1,000,000 or if the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.09 or 2.10 and (ii) the
Eurodollar Rate Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than 15 separate Borrowings. 
 (d) Each Notice of Borrowing and each Notice
of Swing Line Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Appropriate
Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender (as set forth in a written notice delivered by such Lender or the Administrative Agent to the Borrower) as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such
Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of
deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. 

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from an Appropriate Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender
will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing
in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower or Swing Line Bank or Issuing Bank, as applicable, on such date a
corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender, the Borrower or Swing Line Bank or Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to repay or
pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower or Swing Line Bank or Issuing Bank, as applicable, until the date
such amount is repaid or paid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at such time under Section 2.07 to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such
Lender, or Swing Line Bank or Issuing Bank, as applicable, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall 

  
 62 













 
pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes. 

(f) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its
obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing. 

(g) TheTo the extent not paid by the Borrower when due (after taking into consideration any grace period), the Administrative Agent, without the request of the Borrower, may advance any interest, fee, service charge (including direct wire fees), costs and expenses of any Secured Party in accordance with Section 9.04(a), or other
payment to which any Secured Party is entitled from the Loan Parties pursuant hereto or any other Loan Document,
as and when due and payable, and may charge the same to the Loan Account notwithstanding that an Overadvance may result thereby. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Borrower of any such
advance or charge contemporaneously
withpromptly after the making thereof. Such action
on the part of the Administrative Agent shall not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s rights and the Borrower’s obligations under Section 2.06(b). Any amount which is added to the principal balance of the Loan
Account as provided in this Section 2.02(g) shall bear interest at the interest rate then and thereafter applicable to Base Rate Advances. 

SECTION 
2.03. SECTION 2.03. Letters of Credit.  

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the request of the Borrower made in accordance herewith, and prior to the
Termination Date, the Issuing Bank agrees to issue a requested Letter of Credit for the account of the Loan Parties. By submitting a request to the Issuing Bank for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested
that the Issuing Bank issue the requested Letter of Credit. Each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or the amendment, renewal, or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, shall be (i) irrevocable and shall be made in writing
pursuant to a Letter of Credit Application by a Responsible Officer, (ii) delivered to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent via telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Bank not
later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least two Business Days (or such other date and time as the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the requested date of issuance,
amendment, renewal, or extension, and (iii) subject to the Issuing Bank’s authentication procedures with results satisfactory to the Issuing Bank. Each such request shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank
and (i) shall specify (A) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (B) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of such Letter of Credit, (C) the proposed expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) the name and
address of the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit, and (E) such other information (including, the conditions to drawing, and, in the case of an amendment, renewal, or extension, identification of the Letter of Credit to be so amended, renewed,
or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such Letter of Credit, and (ii) shall be accompanied by such Issuer Documents as the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank may request or require, to the extent that such
requests or requirements are consistent with the Issuer Documents that the Issuing Bank generally requests for Letters of Credit in similar circumstances. The Administrative Agent’s records of the content of any such request will be conclusive.
Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Issuing Bank may, but shall not be obligated to, issue a Letter of Credit that supports the obligations of a Loan Party in respect of (x) a lease of real property to the extent that the
face amount of such Letter of Credit exceeds the highest rent (including all rent-like charges) payable under such lease for a period of one year, or (y) an employment contract to the extent that the face amount of such Letter of Credit exceeds
the highest compensation payable under such contract for a period of one year. 

  
 63 













 (b) The Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if, after giving
effect to the requested issuance, (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Used Commitments shall exceed the Loan Cap, (ii) the Used Commitments of any Lender Party would exceed such Lender’s Commitment, or (iii) the Outstanding
Amount of the L/C Obligations would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit; 
 (c) In the event there is a Defaulting Lender as of the date of
any request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue or arrange for such Letter of Credit to the extent (i) the Defaulting Lender’s participation with respect to such Letter of Credit may not
be reallocated pursuant to Section 2.15(b), or (ii) the Issuing Bank has not otherwise entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and the Borrower to eliminate the Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the
participation in such Letter of Credit of the Defaulting Lender, which arrangements may include the Borrower cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s participation with respect to such Letter of Credit in accordance with
Section 2.15(b). Additionally, the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if (A) any order, judgment, or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall, by its terms, purport to enjoin or
restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank
shall prohibit or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, or (B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Bank
applicable to letters of credit generally, or (C) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless either such Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized on or prior to the date of
issuance of such Letter of Credit (or such later date as to which the Administrative Agent may agree) or all the Lenders have approved such expiry date. 

(d) Any Issuing Bank (other than WFB or any of its Affiliates) shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing no later than the Business Day
immediately following the Business Day on which such Issuing Bank issued any Letter of Credit; provided that (i) until the Administrative Agent advises any such Issuing Bank that the provisions of Section 3.02 are not
satisfied, or (ii) unless the aggregate amount of the Letters of Credit issued in any such week exceeds such amount as shall be agreed by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank shall be required to so notify the
Administrative Agent in writing only once each week of the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the immediately preceding week as well as the daily amounts outstanding for the prior week, such notice to be furnished on such day of
the week as the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank may agree. The Borrower and the Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Letters of Credit under this Agreement on and after the
Effective Date with the same effect as if such Existing Letters of Credit were issued by Issuing Bank at the request of the Borrower on the Effective Date. Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Issuing
Bank, including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must be payable in Dollars; provided that if the Issuing Bank, in its discretion, issues a Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars, all reimbursements
by the Borrower of the honoring of any drawing under such Letter of Credit shall be paid in Dollars based on the Spot Rate. If the Issuing Bank makes a payment under a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal
to the applicable Letter of Credit Advance on the Business Day such Letter of Credit Advance is made and, in the absence of such payment, the amount of the Letter of Credit Advance immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a Revolving
Credit Advance hereunder (notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth in Section 3.02 hereof) and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Advances. If a Letter of Credit
Advance is deemed to be a Revolving Credit Advance hereunder, the Borrower’ obligation to pay the amount of such Letter of Credit Advance to the Issuing Bank shall be automatically converted into an obligation to pay the resulting Revolving
Credit Advance. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the 

  
 64 













 
Issuing Bank or, to the extent that the Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.03(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their
interests may appear. 
 (e) Promptly following receipt of a notice of a Letter of Credit Advance pursuant to Section 2.03(d),
each Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Revolving Credit Advance deemed made pursuant to Section 2.03(d) on the same terms and conditions as if the Borrower had requested the amount thereof as a Revolving Credit Advance and
the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment, renewal, or extension of a Letter of Credit) and without any further action on
the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, in an amount equal
to its Pro Rata Share of such Letter of Credit, and each such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit Advance made by the Issuing Bank under the
applicable Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of
each Letter of Credit Advance made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.03(d), or of any reimbursement payment that is required to be refunded (or that the Administrative Agent or
the Issuing Bank elects, based upon the advice of counsel, to refund) to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, an amount
equal to its respective Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 3.02 hereof.
If any such Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of a Letter of Credit Advance as provided in this Section, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and the
Administrative Agent (for the account of the Issuing Bank) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate until paid in full. 

(f) The Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Secured Party (including the Issuing Bank and its branches, Affiliates, and
correspondents) and each such Person’s respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents (each, including the Issuing Bank, a “Letter of Credit Related Person”) (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from
and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all reasonable documented fees and disbursements of attorneys, experts, or consultants and all other costs
and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), which may be incurred by or awarded against any such
Letter of Credit Related Person (other than Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 2.12) (the “Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs”), and which arise out of or in connection with, or as a result of: 

(i) any Letter of Credit or any pre-advice of its issuance; 

(ii) any transfer, sale, delivery, surrender or endorsement of any Drawing Document at any time(s) held by any such Letter of

proceeding to compel or restrain any presentation or payment under any Letter of Credit, or for the wrongful dishonor of, or honoring a presentation under, any Letter of Credit;

(xiii) the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto governmental or
regulatory authority or cause or event beyond the control of the Letter of Credit Related Person related to a Letter of Credit; 
 in each
case, including that resulting from the Letter of Credit Related Person’s own negligence; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not be available to any Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnification under clauses
(i) through (xiii) above to the extent that such Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs may be finally determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted directly from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnity. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay the Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnity on demand from time to time all amounts owing under this
Section 2.03(f). If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.03(f) are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower agrees to make the maximum contribution to the Letter of Credit Indemnified
Costs permissible under applicable
Lawlaw. This indemnification provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and all Letters of Credit. 

  
 66 













 (g) The liability of the Issuing Bank (or any other Letter of Credit Related Person) under,
in connection with or arising out of any Letter of Credit (or pre-advice), regardless of the form or legal grounds of the action or proceeding, shall be limited to direct damages suffered by the Borrower that are caused directly by the Issuing
Bank’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in (i) honoring a presentation under a Letter of Credit that on its face does not at least substantially comply with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit,
(ii) failing to honor a presentation under a Letter of Credit that strictly complies with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit or (iii) retaining Drawing Documents presented under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall be
deemed to have acted with due diligence and reasonable care if the Issuing Bank’s conduct is in accordance with Standard Letter of Credit Practice or in accordance with this Agreement. The Borrower’ aggregate remedies against the Issuing
Bank and any Letter of Credit Related Person for wrongfully honoring a presentation under any Letter of Credit or wrongfully retaining honored Drawing Documents shall in no event exceed the aggregate amount paid by the Borrower to the Issuing Bank
in respect of the honored presentation in connection with such Letter of Credit under Section 2.03(d), plus interest at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder. The Borrower shall take action to avoid and mitigate the
amount of any damages claimed against the Issuing Bank or any other Letter of Credit Related Person, including by enforcing its rights against the beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit. Any claim by the Borrower under or in connection with any
Letter of Credit shall be reduced by an amount equal to the sum of (x) the amount (if any) saved by the Borrower as a result of the breach or alleged wrongful conduct complained of; and (y) the amount (if any) of the loss that would have
been avoided had the Borrower taken all reasonable steps to mitigate any loss, and in case of a claim of wrongful dishonor, by specifically and timely authorizing the Issuing Bank to effect a cure. 

(h) The Borrower shall be responsible for the final text of the Letter of Credit as issued by the Issuing Bank, irrespective of any assistance
the Issuing Bank may provide such as drafting or recommending text or by the Issuing Bank’s use or refusal to use text submitted by the Borrower. The Borrower understands that the final form of any Letter of Credit may be subject to such
revisions and changes as are deemed necessary or appropriate by Issuing Bank, and the Borrower hereby consents to such revisions and changes not materially different from the application executed in connection therewith. The Borrower is solely
responsible for the suitability of the Letter of Credit for the Borrower’s purposes. If the Borrower requests the Issuing Bank to issue a Letter of Credit for an affiliated or unaffiliated third party (an “Account
Party”), (i) such Account Party shall have no rights against the Issuing Bank; (ii) Borrower shall be responsible for the application and obligations under this Agreement; and (iii) communications (including notices)
related to the respective Letter of Credit shall be between the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. The Borrower will examine the copy of the Letter of Credit and any other documents sent by the Issuing Bank in connection therewith and shall promptly
notify the Issuing Bank (not later than three (3) Business Days following the Borrower’s receipt of documents from the Issuing Bank) of any non-compliance with the Borrower’s instructions and of any discrepancy in any document under
any presentment or other irregularity. If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Standby Letter of Credit that has automatic extension
provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period
(commencing with the date of issuance of such Standby Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed
upon at the time such Standby Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank for any
such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Standby Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not
later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date unless either such Standby Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized on or prior to the date of issuance of such Standby Letter 

  
 67 













 
of Credit (or such later date as to which the Administrative Agent may agree) or all the Lenders have approved such expiry date; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall
instruct the Issuing Bank not to permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Standby Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended)
under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) the Issuing Bank has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the
Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions
specified in Section 3.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuing Bank not to permit such extension. 

(i) The Borrower’s reimbursement and payment obligations under this Section 2.03 are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable
and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including: 

(i) any lack of validity, enforceability or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement or any term or provision
therein or herein; 
 (ii) payment against presentation of any draft, demand or claim for payment under any Drawing Document
that does not comply in whole or in part with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit or which proves to be fraudulent, forged or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or which is signed,
issued or presented by a Person or a transferee of such Person purporting to be a successor or transferee of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit; 

(iii) the Issuing Bank or any of its branches or Affiliates being the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit; 

(iv) the Issuing Bank or any correspondent honoring a drawing against a Drawing Document up to the amount available under any
Letter of Credit even if such Drawing Document claims an amount in excess of the amount available under the Letter of Credit; 

(v) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the
ParentHoldings or any of its Subsidiaries may have
at any time against any beneficiary, any assignee of proceeds, the Issuing Bank or any other Person; 
 (vi) any other
event, circumstance or conduct whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing that might, but for this Section 2.03(i), constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of, or provide a right of set-off against, any
Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ reimbursement and other payment obligations and liabilities, arising under, or in connection with, any Letter of Credit, whether against the Issuing Bank, the beneficiary or any other Person; or 

(vii) the fact that any Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 
 provided, however, that subject to
Section 2.03(g) above, the foregoing shall not release the Issuing Bank from such liability to the Borrower as may be finally determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction against the Issuing Bank
following reimbursement or payment of the obligations and liabilities, including reimbursement and other payment obligations, of the Borrower to the Issuing Bank arising under, or in connection with, this Section 2.03 or any Letter of
Credit. 

  
 68 













 (j) Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, the Issuing Bank and each other
Letter of Credit Related Person (if applicable) shall not be responsible to the Borrower for, and the Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against the Borrower and the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for each drawing
under each Letter of Credit shall not be impaired by: 
 (i) honor of a presentation under any Letter of Credit that on its
face substantially complies with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, even if the Letter of Credit requires strict compliance by the beneficiary; 

(ii) honor of a presentation of any Drawing Document that appears on its face to have been signed, presented or issued
(A) by any purported successor or transferee of any beneficiary or other Person required to sign, present or issue such Drawing Document or (B) under a new name of the beneficiary; 

(iii) acceptance as a draft of any written or electronic demand or request for payment under a Letter of Credit, even if
nonnegotiable or not in the form of a draft or notwithstanding any requirement that such draft, demand or request bear any or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; 

(iv) the identity or authority of any presenter or signer of any Drawing Document or the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal
effect of any Drawing Document (other than the Issuing Bank’s determination that such Drawing Document appears on its face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit); 

(v) acting upon any instruction or request relative to a Letter of Credit or requested Letter of Credit that the Issuing Bank
in good faith believes to have been given by a Person authorized to give such instruction or request; 
 (vi) any errors,
omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any message, advice or document (regardless of how sent or transmitted) or for errors in interpretation of technical terms or in translation or any delay in giving or failing to give
notice to the Borrower; 
 (vii) any acts, omissions or fraud by, or the insolvency of, any beneficiary, any nominated person
or entity or any other Person or any breach of contract between any beneficiary and any Borrower or any of the parties to the underlying transaction to which the Letter of Credit relates; 

(viii) assertion or waiver of any provision of the ISP or UCP 600 that primarily benefits an issuer of a letter of credit,
including any requirement that any Drawing Document be presented to it at a particular hour or place; 
 (ix) payment to any
paying or negotiating bank (designated or permitted by the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit) claiming that it rightfully honored or is entitled to reimbursement or indemnity under Standard Letter of Credit Practice applicable to it; 

(x) acting or failing to act as required or permitted under Standard Letter of Credit Practice applicable to where the Issuing
Bank has issued, confirmed, advised or negotiated such Letter of Credit, as the case may be; 
 (xi) honor of a presentation
after the expiration date of any Letter of Credit notwithstanding that a presentation was made prior to such expiration date and dishonored by the 

  
 69 













 
Issuing Bank if subsequently the Issuing Bank or any court or other finder of fact determines such presentation should have been honored; 

(xii) dishonor of any presentation that does not strictly comply or that is fraudulent, forged or otherwise not entitled to
honor; or 
 (xiii) honor of a presentation that is subsequently determined by the Issuing Bank to have been made in
violation of international, federal, state or local restrictions on the transaction of business with certain prohibited Persons. 
 (k) Upon
the request of the Administrative Agent, (i) if the Issuing Bank has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Obligation that remains outstanding, or (ii) if, as of the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations. For purposes of this Section 2.03, Section 6 and Section 2.11, “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or
deposit account balances in an amount equal to 102.5%
of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (other than L/C Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars, which L/C Obligations shall be Cash Collateralized in an amount equal to 107% of the
Outstanding Amount of such L/C Obligations), pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion and the Issuing Bank (which documents are hereby Consented to by the
Lenders). The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent a security interest in all
such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing constituting Cash Collateral. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in
blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at WFB. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or that the total
amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, the Borrower will, forthwith upon written demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited as Cash
Collateral, an amount equal to the excess of (x) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (y) the total amount of funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent determines, in its Permitted Discretion, to be free
and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable laws, to reimburse the Issuing Bank and, to the
extent not so applied, shall thereafter be applied to satisfy other Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

(l) Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement
applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP and the UCP600 shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP600 shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit. 

(m) The Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated
therewith, and the Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article VII with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit
issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article VII included the Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions,
and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Issuing Bank.

 (n) In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this
Section 2.03 and any provision contained in any Issuer Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the
event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.03 shall control and govern.

termination of this Agreement and the repayment in full of the Obligations.

Agreement and related Issuer Document, to protect, exercise and/or enforce Issuing Bank’s rights and interests under this Agreement or to give effect to the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any Issuer Document. Borrower irrevocably
appoints Issuing Bank as its attorney-in-fact and authorizes Issuing Bank, without notice to Borrower, to execute and deliver ancillary documents and letters customary in the letter of credit business that may include but are not limited to
advisements, indemnities, checks, bills of exchange and issuance documents. The power of attorney granted by Borrower is limited solely to such actions related to the issuance, confirmation or amendment of any Letter of Credit and to ancillary

 (b) Letter of Credit Fees, Etc. 

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share a Letter of Credit

Amount under each such Standby Letter of Credit and (B) in the case of DocumentaryCommercial Letters of Credit, the Applicable Margin applicable to
Eurodollar Rate Advances minus 0.5% times the daily Available Amount under each such DocumentaryCommercial Letter of Credit; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of

(z) on the Termination Date, in each case, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and
thereafter on demand, and (2) computed on a monthly or quarterly basis, as applicable, in arrears. For purposes of computing the daily Available Amount of each Letter of Credit, the
amount of the Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.05. If there is any change in the Applicable Margin during any quarter or month, as applicable, the daily Available Amount of each Letter of Credit shall be
computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin separately for each period during such quarter or
month, as applicable, that such Applicable
Margin was in effect. 
 (ii) Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to Issuing Bank. The Borrower shall
pay directly to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, on demand (it being acknowledged and agreed that any charging of such fees, commissions, and charges to the Loan Account pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.02(g) shall be deemed

amount thereof, plus (ii) any and all other customary commissions, fees and charges then in effect imposed by, and any and all expenses incurred by, the Issuing Bank, or by any adviser, confirming institution or entity or other

SECTION 
2.09. SECTION 2.09. Conversion of Advances. (a)  

(a)
Optional. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of
the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Section 2.10, Convert all or any portion of the Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion
of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than
$1,000,000, no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more than 15 Interest Periods in effect and each Conversion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing under any Facility shall be made ratably among the Appropriate Lenders in
accordance with their Commitments under such Facility. Each such notice of Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted and (iii) if such
Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for such Advances. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 

(b) Mandatory. (i) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances in
accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Appropriate Lenders, whereupon with respect to each such
Eurodollar Rate Advance, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 

(ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders
may require, by notice to the Borrower, that (x) at the end of the then existing applicable Interest Period each Eurodollar Rate Advance be Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (y) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert
Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended. 

SECTION 
2.10. SECTION 2.10. Increased Costs, Etc. 

(a)
 (a) If, due to either (i) any Change in Law or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or
request or directive from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), (A) any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued
or caused to be issued hereunder or hereby, or any Advances or obligations to make Advances hereunder or hereby, or (B) there shall be imposed on the Issuing Bank or any other Lender Party any other condition regarding any Letter of Credit,
Advance, or obligations to make Advances hereunder, and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Lender Party of agreeing to make or of making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances or, in the case of any Issuing Bank or
Revolving Credit Lender, of agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in Letters of Credit or of agreeing to make or of making or maintaining Letter of Credit Advances (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.10,
any such increased costs resulting from (x) Taxes described in the definitions of Excluded Taxes, Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.12 shall govern) and (y) changes in the basis of imposition, or the rate,
of any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings or liabilities that are excluded from the definition of Taxes), or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such
Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party for such increased cost or reduced receipt. A
certificate as to the amount of such increased cost or reduced receipt, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party, shall be conclusive 

  
 76 













 
and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank
pursuant to this Section 2.10(a) for any such increased cost or reduced receipt incurred more than one-hundred-eighty (180) days prior to the date that
such Lender or Issuing Bank demands compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased cost or reduced receipt is retroactive, then such 180 day period shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof. 
 (b) If any Lender Party determines that any compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request
from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender Party or any holding company controlling
such Lender Party and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder, then, upon demand by such Lender
Party or such holding company (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Lender Party in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment
to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder or to the issuance or maintenance of or participation in any Letters of Credit, for any reduction in the rate of return on such Lender Party’s capital or liquidity or on the
capital or liquidity of such Lender Party’s holding company. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) for any such increased cost incurred more than one-hundred-eighty
(180) days prior to the date that such Lender demands compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased cost is retroactive, then such 180 day period shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof. 
 (c) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances under any Facility, Lenders owed at least a majority of
the then aggregate unpaid principal amount thereof notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their
Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Appropriate Lenders, whereupon (i) each such Eurodollar Rate Advance under such Facility will automatically, on the last
day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative
Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its
obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) each
Eurodollar Rate Advance under each Facility under which such Lender has a Commitment will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into,
Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided, however, that, before making
any such demand, such Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a


  
 77 













 
designation would allow such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate
Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 (e) The Borrower shall pay to each
Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “”Eurocurrency liabilities””), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each
Eurodollar Rate Advance equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Eurodollar Rate Advance by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each
date on which interest is payable on such Eurodollar Rate Advance, provided the Borrower shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a
Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant interest payment date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice. 

(f) IfSubject to Section 2.10(g) below, if the Required Lenders determine
that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Advance or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (ai) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London
interbank market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Advance, (bii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBO
Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Advance, or (ciii) the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Advance does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Advance, or (iv) any requirement of law or Change in Law has made it, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it
is, unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Advances or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify
the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice, which such
revocation of notice shall be provided at the earliest time that the circumstances in clauses (ai), through (biv
) and (c) in the immediately preceding
sentence no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a
request for a Base Rate Advance in the amount specified therein, without any cost, expense or penalty (including no cost, expense or penalty of the type described in Section 9.04) to the Borrower. 

(g) Effect of
Benchmark Transition Event. 
 (i) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence
of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark
Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such
time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have
delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment, notwithstanding anything (including, without limitation, Section 9.01) herein to the contrary. No replacement of the LIBO Rate with a
Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.10(g) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. 

  
 78 














(ii)
 Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, Section 9.01 hereof), any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or
consent of any other party to this Agreement.  
 (iii) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the
Lenders of (1) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (2) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement,
(3) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (4) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or
the Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.10(g) including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any
action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.10(g).
 
 (iv) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark
Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability
Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Advance. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of Base Rate based upon the LIBO
Rate will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate. 
 (v) Effect of Amendment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any amendment contemplated by this
Section 2.10(g) in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election shall be effective as contemplated by this Section 2.10(g). 

(h)
(g) Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither any Agent, nor any
Lender, nor any of their Participants, is required actually to acquire eurodollar deposits to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues at the LIBO Rate. 

SECTION 
2.11. SECTION 2.11. Payments and Computations. (a)

The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.15), not
later than 10:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. dollarsDollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s
Account in same day funds, with payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day (it being acknowledged and agreed by the Borrower that should any payment item
not be honored when presented for payment, then Borrower shall be deemed not to have made such payment). The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of
principal, interest, commitment fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to more than one Lender Party, to such Lender Parties for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in
accordance with 

  
 79 













 
the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Lender Parties and (ii) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one Lender
Party, to such Lender Party for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained
therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(d), from and after the effective date of such Assignment and Assumption, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of the
interest assigned thereby to the assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. 

(b) INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.[Intentionally Omitted]. 

(c) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as

excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate, fee or commission hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day
other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment or letter of credit fee or commission, as
the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the preceding
Business Day. 
 (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is
due to any Lender Party hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender Party on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender Party. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the
Administrative Agent, each such Lender Party shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender Party together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such
Lender Party until the date such Lender Party repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. 
 (f) Whenever any
payment received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Agents and the Lender Parties by the Borrower under or in

(iii) a controlled foreign corporation related to any Loan Party (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code), Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as appropriate, or any successor or other form
prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Payee is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If, at the time such Payee first
becomes a Payee hereunder payments pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document are subject to withholding tax rate at a rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Indemnified Taxes unless and
until such Lender Party provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Indemnified Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided,
however, that if, at the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which a Lender Party becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender Party assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) of this
Section 2.12 in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Indemnified Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future as a
result of a
changeChange
 in
lawLaw
 after the date that a Lender becomes a party to this Agreement) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender Party assignee on such date. 

(II) Each Payee that is a “United States person” shall deliver to the Administrative Agent two duly signed completed copies of IRS
Form W-9. If such Payee fails to deliver such forms, then Borrower and the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable backup withholding tax imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, without reduction, and such amount shall be
excluded from Indemnified Taxes. 

(f) For any period with respect to which a Payee has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form, certificate or other document
described in subsection (e) above (other than if such failure is due to a changeChange in lawLaw, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to
indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.12 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Payee become subject to Taxes because
of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the Loan Parties shall take such steps as such Payee shall reasonably request to assist such Payee to recover such Taxes. 

(g) If a payment made to a Payee under this Agreement would be subject to withholding tax imposed by the United States of America with respect
to FATCA if such Payee were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of
the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Payee shall
deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably 

  
 84 













 
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 Internal Revenue Code or any intergovernmental agreement) 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 its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Payee has or has not
complied with such Payee’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA
after the date of this Agreement. 
 (h) If a Payee determines that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which
it has been indemnified by the Loan Parties or with respect to which the Loan Parties have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Loan Parties an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Loan Parties under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses such Payee, and without interest (other than any interest paid
by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Loan Parties, upon the request of such Payee, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Loan Parties (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Payee in the event such Payee is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party to
make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Loan Parties or any other Person. 

(i) If any Payee requests compensation under Section 2.10 or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender Party
or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.12, then such Payee shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the
jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates or to file any certificate or document reasonably
requested by the Borrower, if, in the judgment of such Payee, such designation, assignment or filing would (x) eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.12, as the case may be, in the future and
(y) would not subject such Payee to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Payee. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Payee in connection with any such
designation or assignment. A certificate setting forth such costs and expenses submitted by such Payee to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

SECTION 
2.13. SECTION 2.13. Sharing of Payments, Etc. 

If any Lender Party shall obtain at any time any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or
otherwise, other than as a result of an assignment pursuant to Section 9.07) (a) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share
(according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lender Parties at such time or (b) on account of Obligations
owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Lender Party at such
time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to
all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lender Parties at such time, such 

  
 85 













 
Lender Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Lender Parties such interests or participating interests in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be
necessary to cause such purchasing Lender Party to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender Party, such
purchase from each other Lender Party shall be rescinded and such other Lender Party shall repay to the purchasing Lender Party the purchase price to the extent of such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the
purchase price paid to such Lender Party to (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Lender Parties) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the
amount of such other Lender Party’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender Party in respect of the total amount so
recovered. The Loan Parties agree that any Lender Party so purchasing an interest or participating interest from another Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of
payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such interest or participating interest, as the case may be, as fully as if such Lender Party were the direct creditor of the Loan Parties in the amount of such interest or participating
interest, as the case may be. 

SECTION 
2.14. SECTION 2.14. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Facility shall be
available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds), in part, to pay fees and expenses under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, to finance working capital for the Parent and its Subsidiaries and for their other general
corporate purposes (including Permitted Acquisitions and Capital Expenditures). No Loan Party shall use any proceeds of the Revolving Credit Facility, whether directly or, to the Loan Parties’ knowledge after due care and inquiry, indirectly,
and whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately, (a) to purchase or carry Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such Margin Stock or extending credit to others for the purpose of purchasing
or carrying any such Margin Stock or for any purpose that violates the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board; (b) to make any payments to a Sanctioned Entity (that would be prohibited by applicable Sanctions) or a Sanctioned Person,
to finance any investments in a Sanctioned Entity or a Sanctioned Person, to fund any investments, loans or contributions in, or otherwise make such proceeds available to, a Sanctioned Entity (that would be prohibited by applicable Sanctions) or a
Sanctioned Person, to fund any operations, activities or business of a Sanctioned Entity (that would be prohibited by applicable Sanctions) or a Sanctioned Person, or in any other manner that would result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person
that is a party to any Loan Document; (c) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any applicable Sanctions,
Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws; or (d) for purposes other than those permitted under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 2.15. SECTION 2.15.
Defaulting Lenders. 
 (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 2.11 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit or any proceeds of Collateral
that would otherwise be remitted hereunder to the Defaulting Lender, and, in the absence of such transfer to the Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent shall transfer any such payments (i) first, to the Swing Line Bank to the extent of any
Swing Line Advances that were made by the Swing Line Bank and that were required to be, but were not, paid by the Defaulting Lender, (ii) second, to the Issuing Bank, to the extent of the portion of a Letter of Credit Advance that was required
to be, but was not, paid by the Defaulting Lender, (iii) third, to cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit, in accordance with Section 2.15(b)(ii), (iv) fourth, to the Collateral
Account, the proceeds of which shall be retained by the Administrative Agent and may be made available to be re-advanced to or for the benefit of the Borrower (upon the request of the Borrower and subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 3.02) as 

  
 86 













 
if such Defaulting Lender had made its portion of the Advances (or other funding obligations) hereunder, (iv) fifth, to each Non-Defaulting Lender ratably in accordance with their
Commitments (but, in each case, only to the extent that such Defaulting Lender’s portion of an Advance (or other funding obligation) was funded by such other Non-Defaulting Lender), and (vi) from and after the date on which all other
Obligations have been paid in full, to such Defaulting Lender. Subject to the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender the amount of all such payments
received and retained by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender. Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents (including the calculation of Pro Rata Shares in connection
therewith) and for the purpose of calculating the fee payable under Section 2.08(a), such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero; provided,
that the foregoing shall not apply to any of the matters governed by Section 9.01(c). The provisions of this Section 2.15 shall remain effective with respect to such Defaulting Lender until the earlier of (y) the date on
which all of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the Borrower shall have waived, in writing, the application of this Section 2.15 to such Defaulting Lender, or (z) the date on which such
Defaulting Lender pays to the Administrative Agent all amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender in respect of the amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, provides adequate assurance of its
ability to perform its future obligations hereunder (on which earlier date, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any remaining cash collateral held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.15(b) shall
be released to the Borrower). The operation of this Section 2.15 shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of
its duties and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the performance by Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Bank, or to the Lenders other than such Defaulting
Lender. Any failure by a Defaulting Lender to fund amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder shall constitute a material breach by such Defaulting Lender of this Agreement and shall entitle the Borrower, at its option, upon written notice to
the Administrative Agent, to arrange for a substitute Lender to assume the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.12, such substitute Lender to be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. In connection with
the arrangement of such a substitute Lender, the Defaulting Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder, and agrees to execute and deliver a completed form of Assignment and Assumption in favor of the substitute Lender (and agrees
that it shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such document if it fails to do so) subject only to being paid its share of the outstanding Obligations (other than any Other Liabilities, but including (1) all interest, fees (except any
commitment fees or Letter of Credit Fees not due to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), and other amounts that may be due and payable in respect thereof, and (2) an assumption of its Pro Rata Share of its
participation in the Letters of Credit); provided, that any such assumption of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any of the Secured Parties’ or the Loan Parties’ rights or
remedies against any such Defaulting Lender arising out of or in relation to such failure to fund. In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.15 and any other provision contained in this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that
cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.15 shall control and govern. 
 (b) If any Swing Line
Advance or Letter of Credit is outstanding at the time that a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) such Defaulting
Lender’s participation interest in any Swing Line Advance or Letter of Credit shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their 

  
 87 













 
respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent (x) the Used Commitment of all Non-Defaulting Lenders after giving effect to such reallocation does not exceed the total of all
Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at such time; 

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (b)(i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within
one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s participation in any outstanding Swing Line Advances (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (b)(i) above)
and (y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (b)(i) above), pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, for so long as such L/C Obligations are outstanding; provided, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to cash collateralize any Defaulting Lender’s participations
in Letters of Credit if such Defaulting Lender is also the Issuing Bank; 
 (iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any
portion of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.15(b), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any Letter of Credit Fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of such
Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.08 with respect to such cash collateralized portion of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit during the period such participation is cash collateralized; 

(iv) to the extent the participation by any Non-Defaulting Lender in the Letters of Credit is reallocated pursuant to this
Section 2.15(b), then the Letter of Credit Fees payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.08 shall be adjusted in accordance with such reallocation; 

(v) to the extent any Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit is neither cash collateralized nor
reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.15(b), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit Fees that would have otherwise been payable to such Defaulting Lender under
Section 2.08 with respect to such portion of such participation shall instead be payable to the Issuing Bank until such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s participation is cash collateralized or reallocated; 

(vi) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Bank shall not be required to make any Swing Line Advance and
the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend, or increase any Letter of Credit, in each case, to the extent (x) the Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Advances or Letter of Credit cannot be reallocated pursuant
to this Section 2.15(b) or (y) the Swing Line Bank or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, has not otherwise entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Swing Line Bank or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, and the Borrower
to eliminate the Swing Line Bank’s or Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender’s participation in Swing Line Advances or Letters of Credit; and 

(vii) The Administrative Agent may release any cash collateral provided by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section 2.15(b) to the Issuing Bank and the Issuing Bank may apply any such cash collateral to the payment of such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit Advance that is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 2.03. 
 (c) The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.15 are in addition to
other rights and remedies that the Borrower or any Agent or any Lender Party may have 

  
 88 













 
against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any amounts not funded or obligations not fulfilled by such Default Lender. 

SECTION 
2.16. SECTION 2.16. Evidence of Debt. (a) The Advances and other credit extensions made
by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent (the “Loan Account”) in the ordinary course of business. In addition, each other Lender Party shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender Party resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender Party from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest
payable and paid to such Lender Party from time to time hereunder. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the
accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender Party to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a
promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is required or appropriate in order for such Lender Party to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender Party, the
Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender Party, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a Revolving Credit Note, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto payable to the order of such Lender Party in a principal amount equal
to the Commitment of such Lender Party. All references to Notes in the Loan Documents shall mean Notes, if any, to the extent issued hereunder. 

(b) The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(d) shall include a control account, and a
subsidiary account for each Lender Party, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period
applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender Party
hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender Party’s share thereof. 

(c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender Party in
its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender
Party and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender Party, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party to make an entry, or any finding
that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. 

SECTION 
2.17. SECTION 2.17. Reserves; Eligibility Criteria. 

(a) The Administrative Agent may hereafter establish Reserves or change any of the Reserves in its Permitted Discretion; provided that
such Reserves shall not be established or changed except upon not less than
fivethree
(53) Business Days’ notice to the Borrower (during which period the Administrative Agent shall be available to discuss any such proposed Reserve with the Borrower and the Borrower may take such action as
may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such Reserve no longer exists, in a manner and to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion), except that, solely for the period from and after the First Amendment Effective Date until the date of the first field examination and appraisal conducted pursuant to
Section 5.01(f)(ii) after the First Amendment Effective Date, no such prior notice shall be required (x) if an Event of Default is continuing, or (y) for changes to Reserves
solely by virtue of 

  
 89 













 
mathematical calculations of the amount of such Reserves in accordance with the methodology previously utilized; provided, further, that if, as a result of any such adjustment or modification described in this clause (a), the aggregate principal amount of the
Revolving Credit Advances and Swing Line Advances then outstanding (together with the Available Amount of the Letters of Credit outstanding at such time) exceeds the Borrowing Base then in effect, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Borrower shall have three (3) Business Days
followingnot be permitted to request any borrowings or extensions of credit hereunder to the date on
whichextent any such adjustment or modification becomes effective to repay the amount
ofborrowing or extension of credit would cause an Overadvance or an Event of Default after giving
effect to such excessnew or modified Reserves. 

(b) The Administrative Agent may hereafter establish new, or modify existing, eligibility criteria in its Permitted Discretion as set forth in
the definitions of “Eligible Inventory”, “Eligible In-Transit Inventory” and “Eligible Credit Card Receivables”; provided that such criteria shall not be established or changed except upon not less than fivethree
(53) Business Days’ notice to the Borrower (during which period the Administrative Agent shall be available to discuss any such proposed criterion with the Borrower and the Borrower may take such action as
may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such criterion no longer exists, in a manner and to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion), except that, solely for the period from and after the First Amendment Effective Date until the date of the first field examination and appraisal conducted pursuant to
Section 5.01(f)(ii) after the First Amendment Effective Date, no such prior notice shall be required if an Event of Default is continuing; provided, further, that if, as a result of
any such adjustment or modification described in this clause (b), the aggregate principal amount of the
Revolving Credit Advances and Swing Line Advances then outstanding (together with the Available Amount of the Letters of Credit outstanding at such time) exceeds the Borrowing Base then in effect, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Borrower shall have three (3) Business Days following the date on
whichnot be permitted to request any borrowings or extensions of credit hereunder to the extent any
such borrowing or extension of credit would cause an Overadvance or an Event of Default after giving effect to such adjustment or modification becomes effective to repay the amount of such excess. 

SECTION 
2.18. SECTION 2.18. Increase in Commitments. (a)  

(a)
Upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time after the Effective Date, the Borrower may request that Additional Revolving Credit Commitments be provided by the existing Lenders (in
accordance with their Pro Rata Share), and if such Lenders are unwilling to provide such Additional Revolving Credit Commitments (it being understood that a Lender shall be deemed to be unwilling to provide such Additional Revolving Credit
Commitments if it has not affirmatively responded to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after Borrower’s request), (x) the Lead Arranger will use its reasonable efforts, subject to compensation to be agreed, to obtain one or
more Persons that are Eligible Assignees to provide such Additional Revolving Credit Commitments and/or (y) the Borrower may identify one or more financial institutions which are not existing Lenders (and which are not Loan Parties or
Affiliates of Loan Parties) that are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to provide such Additional Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) after giving effect to any such Additional Revolving Credit Commitments,
the aggregate amount of Additional Revolving Credit Commitments that have been added pursuant to this
Section 2.18 shall not exceed $125,000,000,
(ii) each request for Additional Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in minimum increments of $20,000,000, (iii) the Borrower shall not make more than five such requests for Additional Revolving Credit Commitments and (iv) the terms
of any Additional Revolving Credit Advances shall be the same as those for the existing Revolving Credit Advances, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to pay upfront fees to the Additional Revolving Credit Lenders in amounts to be agreed.
Notwithstanding 

  
 90 













 
anything contained herein to the contrary, the Lender Parties shall not be obligated to commit to the Additional Revolving Credit Commitments. 

(b) Any Additional Revolving Credit Commitments to provide Additional Revolving Credit Advances under this Section 2.18 shall be
added to this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (the “Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Amendment”) among the Parent, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Additional Revolving Credit Lenders. As conditions
precedent to the effectiveness of the Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Amendment, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) a certificate on behalf of the Borrower dated as of the effective date (the
“Additional Revolving Credit Commitments Effective Date”) signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (i) the representations and warranties of the
Loan Parties contained in Article IV and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Additional Revolving Credit Commitments Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties
specifically refer to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties are true on and of such earlier date) and without duplication of any materiality qualifiers applicable thereto, (ii) no Default or Event of Default exists immediately before or immediately after giving effect to such addition,
(iii) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be in compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 5.05 as of (A) the Additional Revolving Credit Commitments Effective Date and (B) the last day of the most
recently ended determination period after giving pro forma effect to such Additional Revolving Credit Commitment, the making of Additional Revolving Credit Advances in respect thereof and any Investment to be consummated in connection therewith, and
(y) if any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries owns any Margin Stock, an updated Form U-1 (with sufficient additional originals thereof for each Lender), duly executed and delivered by the Borrower, together with such other documentation as
the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, in order to enable the Agents and the Lenders to comply with any of the requirements under Regulations T, U or X of the Board. On each Additional Revolving Credit Commitments Effective Date, each
applicable Lender, Eligible Assignee or other Person which is providing an Additional Revolving Credit Commitment (i) shall become a “Revolving Credit Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and
(ii) in the case of any Additional Revolving Credit Commitment, shall make an Additional Revolving Credit Advance to the Company in a principal amount equal to such Additional Revolving Credit Commitment, and such Additional Revolving Credit
Advance shall be a “Revolving Credit Advance” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 (c) Any
Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Amendment and any related documentation may, without the consent of any Lenders (other than Additional Revolving Credit Lenders that are party to such Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Amendment), effect
such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be reasonably necessary, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.18. Any Additional Revolving Credit Advances made
pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 9.07(d). 

(d) This Section 2.18 shall supersede any provisions in Section 9.01 to the contrary. Notwithstanding any other
provision of any Loan Document, the Loan Documents may be amended by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties, if necessary, to provide for terms applicable to each Additional Revolving Credit Commitment.

Actions in Respect of the Letters of Credit upon Default. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may, or shall at the request of the
Required Lenders, irrespective of whether it is taking any of the actions described in Section 6.01 or otherwise, make demand upon the Borrower to, and forthwith upon such demand the Borrower will, pay to the Collateral Agent on behalf
of the Lender Parties in same day funds at the Collateral Agent’s Office, for deposit in the Collateral Account, an amount equal to the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding; provided, however, that
in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lender Parties in same day funds at the
Collateral Agent’s Office, for deposit in the Collateral Account, an amount equal to the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. If at any time during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent determines that any funds held in the Collateral Account are subject to any right
or claim of any Person other than the Agents and the Lender Parties or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit, the Borrower will, forthwith upon demand 

  
 133 













 
by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, pay to the Collateral Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the Collateral Account, an amount equal to the excess of
(a) such aggregate Available Amount over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in the Collateral Account that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, determines to be free and clear of any such
right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit in the Collateral Account, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Bank or Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, to the extent permitted by
applicable law.

THE AGENTS 
 SECTION 7.01. SECTION 7.01.
Authorization and Action. (a) 


(a)
Each Lender Party (in its capacities as a Lender, the Swing Line Bank (if applicable), the Issuing Bank (if applicable) and on behalf of itself and its Affiliates as potential Hedge Banks) hereby
appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with
such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan
Documents), no Agent shall be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required
Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lender Parties, all Hedge Banks and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that no Agent shall be required to take any action that exposes such Agent to personal liability or
that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. 
 (b) In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender Party (in its capacities as
a Lender, the Swing Line Bank (if applicable), the Issuing Bank (if applicable) and on behalf of itself and its Affiliates as potential Hedge Banks) hereby appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such Lender Party for
purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this
connection, the Collateral Agent (and any Supplemental Collateral Agents appointed by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 7.01(c) for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under
the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights or remedies thereunder at the direction of the Collateral Agent) shall be entitled to the benefits of this Article VII (including, without limitation, Section 7.05) as though the
Collateral Agent (and any such Supplemental Collateral Agents) were an “Agent” under the Loan Documents, as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 

(c) Any Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including for purposes of holding or enforcing
any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Collateral Agent) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall
be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Collateral Agent may also from time to time, when the Collateral Agent deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more
trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Supplemental Collateral Agent”) with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided, however, that no such
Supplemental Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral Agent. Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower or any
other Loan Party be 

  
 134 













 
required by any Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by the Collateral Agent to more fully or certainly vest in and confirm to such Supplemental Collateral Agent such rights, powers,
privileges and duties, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon the reasonable request by the Collateral Agent. If any Supplemental Collateral Agent, or
successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the
Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent, attorney-in-fact or Supplemental Collateral Agent that it selects in accordance with the
foregoing provisions of this Section 7.01(c) in the absence of such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the Documentation Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Arrangers is named as such for recognition purposes only and in its capacity as such shall have no powers, duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the
Transaction. Without limitation of the foregoing, none of the Documentation Agent, the Syndication Agent or the Arrangers shall not, solely by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or any other Person. 
 SECTION 7.02. SECTION 7.02.
Agents’ Reliance, Etc. 
 (a) Neither any Agent nor any of
their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, each Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (b) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender Party and shall not be responsible to any Lender Party for any
statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Loan Documents or for the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or
therewith; (c) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance, observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Loan Document on the part of any Loan Party or the existence at any time of
any Default under the Loan Documents or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Loan Party; (d) shall not be responsible to any Lender Party for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,
sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and
(e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram, telecopy or electronic communication) believed by it to be genuine
and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. 
 (b) The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents: 
 (i) shall not
be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing; 
 (ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the 

  
 135 













 
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that none of the Agents shall be
required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and 

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not
be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Loan Parties or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as an Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 

(c) No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 6.02 and 9.01) or (ii) in the absence of its
own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (d)
Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including, but not limited to, any electronic message,
Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and
believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms
must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender Party, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender Party unless such Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender Party prior to the making
of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. 
 (e) No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until
notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to such Agent by the Loan Parties or a Lender
Party. Upon the occurrence of a Default, the Agents shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents). Unless and until the
Agents shall have received such direction, the Agents may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to any such Default as they shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Secured
Parties. In no event shall any Agent be required to comply with any such directions to the extent that such Agent believes that its compliance with such directions would be unlawful. 

SECTION 
7.03. SECTION 7.03. WFB and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitments, the Advances made
by it and any Notes issued to it, WFB shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender Party and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent; and the term “Lender Party” or “Lender
Parties” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include WFB in its individual capacity. WFB and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and
generally engage in any kind of business with, any Loan Party, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person that may do business with or own securities of any Loan Party or any such Subsidiary, all as if WFB were not an Agent and without any duty to
account therefor to the Lender Parties. WFB shall have no duty to disclose any information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained or
received in any capacity other than as such Agent.

SECTION 
7.04. SECTION 7.04. Lender Party Credit Decision. Each Lender Party acknowledges that it
has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender Party and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 7.05. SECTION 7.05.
Indemnification. (a) 


(a)
Each Lender Party severally agrees to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender Party’s ratable share (determined as provided
below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”); provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be
liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final,
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender Party agrees to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrower under Section 9.04, to the extent that such Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 7.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or
proceeding is brought by any Lender Party or any other Person. 
 (b) Each Lender Party severally agrees to indemnify the Issuing
Bank (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender Party’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Issuing
Bank under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting
from the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender Party agrees to reimburse the Issuing Bank
promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrower under Section 9.04, to the extent that the Issuing Bank is not promptly reimbursed
for such costs and expenses by the Borrower. 
 (c) For purposes of this Section 7.05, each Lender Party’s ratable share of
any amount shall be determined, at any time, according to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Advances outstanding at such time and owing to such Lender Party’s, (ii) such Lender Party’s Pro Rata Share of the
aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time and (iii) such Lender Party’s Unused Commitments at such time; provided that the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Advances owing to the Swing Line
Bank and of Letter of Credit Advances owing to the Issuing Bank shall be considered to be owed to the Revolving Credit Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender Party to reimburse any Agent or the
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the 

  
 137 













 
Lender Parties to such Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender Party of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent or the
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender Party shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender Party to reimburse such Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such other Lender
Party’s ratable share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender Party hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender Party contained in this Section 7.05 shall survive the
payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 7.06. SECTION 7.06.
Successor Agents. Any Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lender Parties and the Borrower, and any Agent (other than Wells Fargo in its capacity as an Agent) may be
removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders (without giving effect to the provision set
forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” requiring that there be at least two Lenders that are not Affiliates); provided, however, that any removal of the
Administrative Agent will not be effective until (x) it has also been replaced as Collateral Agent, Swing Line Bank and Issuing Bank and released from all of its obligations in respect thereof and (y) WFB’s Commitment has been
terminated, reduced or assigned to other Lenders after the
FirstSecond

effect as long as any Advance or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain
outstandinguntil payment in full of the Obligations in accordance with Section 1.02(b). Further, the 

  
 151 













 
provisions of Sections 2.10, 2.12 and 9.04 and Article VII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the repaymentpayment in

obligations that may thereafter arise with respect to the Other Liabilities and (z) any Obligations that may thereafter arise under Section 9.04. 

SECTION 
9.07. SECTION 9.07. Assignments and Participations. (a)  

(a)
Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the
Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of the applicable
Facility, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or an Approved Fund of any Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement, the aggregate amount of the Commitments being assigned to such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment) shall in no
event be less than $5,000,000, (iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (iv) no such assignments shall be permitted without the
consent of the Administrative Agent until the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Lender Parties that syndication of the Commitments hereunder has been completed and (viv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Assumption, together with any Note or Notes (if
any). 
 (b) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment
and Assumption, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender or
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, hereunder and (ii) the Lender or Issuing Bank assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its
rights (other than its rights under Sections 2.10, 2.12 and 9.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall cease to be a party hereto). 

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, each Lender Party assignor thereunder and each assignee thereunder confirm to
and agree with each other and the other parties thereto and hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Assumption, such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with
respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or
security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes
no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto;

(iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, such assigning Lender Party or any
other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an
Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and
thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required
to be performed by it as a Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be. 
 (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose (but only
for this purpose) as the agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the Lender Parties and the Commitment under each Facility of, and principal amount of the Advances owing under each Facility to, each Lender Party from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lender Parties shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender Party hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Agent or any Lender Party at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 9.07(d) shall be construed so that the
Facilities are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. 

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender Party and an assignee, together with any Note or Notes
(if any) subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Assumption has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) record the
information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and each other Agent. In the case of any assignment by a Lender, within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its
own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note or Notes (if any) a new Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it under each Facility
pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption and, if any assigning Lender that had a Note or Notes prior to such assignment has retained a Commitment hereunder under such Facility, a new Note to the order of such assigning Lender in an amount equal to
the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Assumption and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, Notes shall not be required in respect of the Letter of Credit Facility. 
 (f) The Issuing Bank may assign to an Eligible
Assignee all of its rights and obligations under the undrawn portion of its Letters of Credit (or the right to issue subsequent Letters of Credit) at any time; provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be to an
Eligible Assignee and (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment. 

(g) Each Lender Party may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a
portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note 

  
 153 













 
or Notes (if any) held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender Party’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments) shall
remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender Party shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender Party shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this
Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender Party in connection with such Lender Party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (v) no
participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or
consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on,
the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or release all or substantially all of the Collateral or the value of the Guaranties. Each Lender Party 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 and interest amounts of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other
obligations under this Agreement (a “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or
any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such
commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(e)(2) of the Code and Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register
shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(h) Any Lender Party may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this
Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender Party by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided, however, that,
prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information received by it from such Lender Party. 

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender Party may at any time create a security interest in all or any
portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes (if any) held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System. 
 (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a Fund may create a security
interest in all or any portion of the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that,
unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 9.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and
(ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise. 

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender Party (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a
special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from 

  
 154 













 
time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Advance that such Granting Lender
would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Advance and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails
to make all or any part of such Advance, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of an Advance by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent,
and as if, such Advance were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender Party would be liable,
(ii) no SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10 or 2.12 (or any other increased costs protection provision) and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including, without limitation, the approval of
any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the Lender Party of record hereunder. 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 Debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior
consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its interest in any Advance to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Advances to
any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This subsection (k) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any part
of whose Advances are being funded by the SPC at the time of such amendment.

SECTION 
9.09. SECTION 9.09. No Liability of the Issuing Bank. The Borrower assumes all risks of the
acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither the Issuing Bank nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may
be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to
be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by the Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any
reference or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the Borrower shall have a claim against the Issuing Bank, and the
Issuing Bank shall be liable to the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower that the Borrower proves were caused by (i) the Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as
determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit or (ii) the Issuing Bank’s willful
failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the

Loan Parties received by it in connection with such credit derivative transaction.

notwithstanding, the Agents may disclose information concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to loan syndication and pricing reporting services or in its marketing or promotional materials, with such
information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications or marketing or promotional materials and may otherwise use the name, logos, and other insignia of the Borrower or the other Loan Parties and the

any Guarantor (to the extent permitted by the Loan Documents), a release of such Guarantor from the Guaranty;

SECTION 
9.12. SECTION 9.12. Replacement of Holdout Lender. (a) 

(a)
(i) If any action to be taken by the Lender Parties or any Agent hereunder requires the unanimous consent, authorization, or agreement of all Lender Parties and the consent of the Required
Lenders is obtained but a Lender (“Holdout Lender”) fails to give its consent, authorization, or agreement or (ii) if at any time any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or becomes insolvent or (iii) if at any time
the Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional payments described in Section 2.10 and 2.12(a) to a Lender, in each case, then the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior irrevocable
notice to the Holdout Lender, Defaulting Lender or other Lender, as the case may be, may permanently replace the Holdout Lender, Defaulting Lender or other Lender, as the case may be, with one or more substitute Lenders (each, a
“Replacement Lender”), and the Holdout Lender, the Defaulting Lender or other Lender, as the case may be, shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Holdout Lender, the Defaulting
Lender or other Lender, as the case may be, shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given. 

(b) Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender, the Defaulting Lender or other Lender, as the case may be, and each
Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption, subject only to the Holdout Lender, the Defaulting Lender or other Lender, as the case may be, being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations under the Loan Documents
(other than any Other Liabilities, but including (1) all accrued but unpaid interest, fees (except any amounts, including commitment fees or Letter of Credit Fees, not due to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, after subtracting all amounts such Lender owes to the Loan Parties), and other amounts that may be due and payable in respect thereof, and (2) an assumption of such Lender’s participation, if such Lender is a Revolving Credit
Lender, in all Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit) without any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever. If the Holdout Lender, the
Defaulting Lender or other Lender, as the case may be, shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Assumption prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender, the Defaulting Lender or other Lender, as the
case may be, shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption. The replacement of any Holdout Lender, the Defaulting Lender or other Lender, as the case may be, shall be made in accordance with the terms of
Section 9.07. Until such time as the Replacement Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations, the Commitments, and the other rights and obligations of the Holdout Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Holdout
Lender, the Defaulting Lender or the other Lender, as the case may be, shall remain obligated to make the Holdout Lender’s, the Defaulting Lender’s or the other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Advances and to purchase a participation in
each Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit.

that will allow such Lender Party or such Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide such information and take such actions as are
reasonably requested by any Agent or any Lender Party in order to assist the Agents and the Lender Parties in maintaining compliance with applicable
Lawslaws

therewith) on all Loan Parties, their senior management and key principals and legal and beneficial owners. Each Loan Party agrees that the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and charges incurred by any Agent in connection with conducting
due diligence searches and checks in connection with the foregoing shall constitute expenses payable by the Borrower pursuant to Section 9.04 hereof. 

(b) No Advance, Letter of Credit or use of the proceeds of any thereof will violate the Patriot Act, the Trading With the Enemy Act or any
other requirements contained in the rules and regulations of the OFAC.

States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any
objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in any New York State or Federal court. Each

SECTION 
9.17. SECTION 9.17. Release. Parent and
eachEach Loan Party may have certain Claims
against the Released Parties, as those terms are defined below, regarding or relating to the Existing Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The agents and lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement, and each Loan Party desires to resolve
each and every one of such Claims in conjunction with the execution of this Agreement and thus each Loan Party makes the releases contained in this Section 9.17. In consideration of Agents and the Lender Parties entering into this
Agreement, each Loan Party hereby fully and unconditionally releases and forever discharges each of the Agents (and their predecessors) and the Lenders (in their capacities as such under the Existing Credit Agreement), and their respective
directors, officers, employees, subsidiaries, Affiliates, attorneys, agents and representatives, (collectively, in their capacities as such under the Existing Credit Agreement, the “Released Parties”), of and from any and all
claims, allegations, causes of action, costs or demands and liabilities, of whatever kind or nature, up to and including the date on which this Agreement is executed, whether known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent,
asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, suspected or unsuspected, anticipated or unanticipated, which any Loan Party has, had, claims to have had or hereafter claims to have against the Released Parties by reason of any
act or omission on the part of the Released Parties, or any of them, occurring prior to the date on which this Agreement is executed, including all such loss or damage of any kind heretofore sustained or that may arise as a consequence of the
dealings among the parties up to and including the date on which this Agreement is executed, regarding or relating to the Existing Credit Agreement, any of the Loan Documents (as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date), the borrowings or
other extensions of credit or financial accommodations thereunder or any of the other Obligations thereunder, including administration or enforcement thereof (collectively, the “Claims”). Each Loan Party represents and
warrants that it has no knowledge of any Claim by it against the Released Parties or of any facts or acts of omissions of the Released Parties which on the Effective Date would be the basis of a Claim by such Person against the Released Parties
which is not released hereby. Each Loan Party represents and warrants that the foregoing constitutes a full and complete release of all Claims. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing release shall not be applicable
to the extent a court of competent jurisdiction has determined the Released Parties have acted with gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection with any such Claims. 

SECTION 
9.18. SECTION 9.18. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally
absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under the Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided,
however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 9.18 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.18, or
otherwise under the Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and
effect until payment in full of the Obligations in accordance with Section 1.02(b). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 9.18 constitute, and this Section 9.18 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the
benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
 SECTION 9.19. SECTION 9.19.
No Novation. Parent, Borrower, Subsidiary Guarantors, Agents and the Lenders hereby agree that, effective upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by each such party and the
fulfillment, to the satisfaction of Agents and each Lender of each of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01, the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are amended, restated and superseded
in their entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the obligations of the Borrower outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or instruments securing the
same, which obligations shall remain in full force and effect, except to the extent that the terms thereof are 

  
 159 













 
modified hereby or by instruments executed concurrently herewith. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement shall be construed as a release or other discharge of the Borrower, or any
Guarantor from any of its obligations or liabilities under the Existing Credit Agreement or any of the security agreements, pledge agreements, mortgages, guaranties or other Loan Documents executed in connection therewith. The Borrower and each
Subsidiary Guarantor hereby (a) confirms and agrees that each Loan Document to which it is a party is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects except that on and after the
Effective Date all references in any such Loan Document to “the Credit Agreement”, “the Agreement”, “thereto”, “thereof”, “thereunder” or words of like import referring to the Existing Credit
Agreement shall mean the Existing Credit Agreement as amended and restated by this Agreement; and (b) confirms and agrees that to the extent that the Existing Credit Agreement or any Loan Document executed in connection therewith purports to
assign or pledge to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, or to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders a security interest in or lien on, any collateral as security for the Obligations of the Borrower from time
to time existing in respect of the Existing Credit Agreement, such pledge, assignment or grant of the security interest or lien is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects and shall remain effective as of the first date it became effective.

9.20. SECTION 9.20. Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEAAffected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any

 (iii) the
variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-downWrite-Down and conversion powers of any
EEAConversion Powers of the applicable Resolution

SECTION 
9.21. Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support,
through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties
acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with
the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and
any 

  
 160 













 
Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of
the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a
Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S.
Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported
QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest,
obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution
Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights
could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. 

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

SECTION 
9.23. Intercreditor Agreements.  

(a) EACH
LENDER UNDERSTANDS, ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT LIENS SHALL BE CREATED ON THE COLLATERAL PURSUANT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHICH LIENS SHALL BE SUBJECT TO TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF EACH INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. PURSUANT TO THE EXPRESS TERMS OF EACH
INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TERMS OF SUCH INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN AND CONTROL. 

(b) EACH
LENDER AUTHORIZES AND INSTRUCTS THE AGENTS TO ENTER INTO EACH INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (AND ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EVIDENCING AN INTERCREDITOR ARRANGEMENT TO THE EXTENT CONTEMPLATED BY THE TERMS HEREOF) ON BEHALF OF THE LENDERS, AND TO TAKE ALL ACTIONS
(AND EXECUTE ALL DOCUMENTS) REQUIRED (OR DEEMED ADVISABLE) BY THE AGENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF SUCH INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (OR SUCH OTHER DOCUMENT EVIDENCING AN INTERCREDITOR ARRANGEMENT). THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT EACH
INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT OR SUCH OTHER DOCUMENT EVIDENCING AN INTERCREDITOR ARRANGEMENT IS BINDING UPON THEM. EACH LENDER HEREBY AGREES THAT IT WILL BE BOUND BY AND WILL TAKE NO ACTIONS CONTRARY TO THE PROVISIONS OF ANY INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT OR ANY
OTHER DOCUMENT EVIDENCING AN INTERCREDITOR ARRANGEMENT ENTERED INTO PURSUANT TO THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE. 

(c) THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 9.22 ARE NOT INTENDED TO SUMMARIZE ALL RELEVANT PROVISIONS OF ANY INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. REFERENCE MUST BE MADE TO EACH INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT ITSELF TO UNDERSTAND ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS THEREOF. EACH LENDER IS
RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING ITS OWN ANALYSIS AND REVIEW OF EACH INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT  

  
 161 













 
AND THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS THEREOF, AND NEITHER ANY AGENT NOR
ANY OF ANY AGENT’S AFFILIATES MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION TO ANY LENDER AS TO THE SUFFICIENCY OR ADVISABILITY OF THE PROVISIONS CONTAINED IN ANY INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. 

(d)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (x) no Lender consent shall be required to effect any amendment or supplement to any Intercreditor Agreement (A) that is solely for the purpose of
adding holders of Debt incurred or issued pursuant to a Permitted Refinancing Debt of the Term Credit Agreement (or any agent or trustee of such holders) as parties thereto, as contemplated by the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and
permitted under Section 5.02(b)(viii) (it being understood that any such amendment or supplement may make such other changes to any Intercreditor Agreement as, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, as required to
effectuate the foregoing and provided that such other changes are not adverse to the interests of the Lenders), or (B) that is expressly contemplated by the ABL Intercreditor Agreement with respect to a Permitted Refinancing Debt of the Term
Credit Agreement permitted under Section 5.02(b)(viii) (or the comparable provisions, if any, of any successor intercreditor agreement with respect to a Permitted Refinancing Debt of the Term Credit Agreement permitted under
Section 5.02(b)(viii)); provided that no such agreement or supplement shall, pursuant to this paragraph, amend, modify or otherwise effect the rights or duties of any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document unless in writing and
signed by such Agent.
