	 	  	 Debt Ratings

S&P / Moody’s / Fitch
	  	Applicable Margin
for Eurocurrency
Rate Advances	 	Applicable Margin for
Base Rate Advances
	 Level 1
	  	A- / A3 / A- or higher	  	1.000%	 	0.000%

Moody’s and Fitch shall fall within the same Level, the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to such Level; (ii) if none of S&P, Moody’s and Fitch shall have in effect a Debt Rating, then each such rating agency
shall be deemed to have established a Debt Rating in Level 6; (iii) if only one of S&P, Moody’s and Fitch shall have in effect a Debt Rating, the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the Level in which such Debt Rating
falls; (iv) if the Debt Ratings established or deemed to have been established by S&P, Moody’s and Fitch shall each fall within different Levels from each other, the Applicable Margin shall be based on the highest of the three Debt
Ratings unless at least one of the three Debt Ratings is two or more Levels lower than one or more of the others, in which case the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the Level next below that of the highest of the three Debt
Ratings; (v) if only two of S&P, Moody’s and Fitch shall have in effect a Debt Rating and such Debt Ratings shall fall within different Levels, the Applicable Margin shall be based on the higher of the two Debt Ratings unless one of
the two Debt Ratings is two or more Levels lower than the other, in which case the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the Level next above that of the lower of the two Debt Ratings; and (vi) if the Debt Ratings established or

change, or if any such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Reporting Entity and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend the definition of “Applicable Margin” set forth in

recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

United Kingdom relating to the resolution of unsound or failing banks, investment firms or other financial institutions or their affiliates (other than through liquidation, administration or other insolvency proceedings). 

“Base Rate” means for any day a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the NYFRB Rate plus 1/2 of 1%,
(b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as its “prime rate,” and (c) the LIBO Rate for a one-month Interest Period
plus 1.00%, provided that if the Base Rate as so determined would be less than 1%, such rate shall be deemed to be 1% for the purposes of calculating such rate. The “prime rate” is a rate set by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. based upon
various factors including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.’s costs and desired return, general economic conditions and other factors, and is used as a reference point for pricing some loans, which may be priced at, above, or below such announced rate.

Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the LIBO Rate or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the
applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to clause (e) or clause (h) of Section 2.10. 

  
 4 













 “Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first
alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date: 

(1) the sum of: (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 

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

(3) the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers as
the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant
Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time and (b) the
related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 
 provided that, in the case of clause (1), the Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is displayed on a
screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided further that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or
in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event, and the delivery of a Term SOFR Notice, on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date the “Benchmark Replacement” shall revert to and shall be deemed to be the
sum of (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, as set forth in clause (1) of this definition (subject to the first proviso above). 

If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) above would be less than zero, the Benchmark Replacement
will be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 “Benchmark Replacement
Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Interest Period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement: 

(1) for purposes of clauses (1) and (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the first alternative set
forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent: 
 (a) the spread adjustment, or method for
calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant
Governmental Body for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; and 

  
 5 













 (b) the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or
zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that would apply to the fallback rate for a derivative transaction referencing the ISDA Definitions to be effective upon an index cessation event with
respect to such Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; and 
 (2) for purposes of clause (3) of the
definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero), that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the
Borrowers for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with
the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for
calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities; 

provided that, in the case of clause (1) above, such adjustment is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such
Benchmark Replacement Adjustment from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion. 

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or
operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Base Rate,” the definition of “Interest Period,” the definition of “Business Day”, timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest,
timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent decides
in its reasonable discretion may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice
(or, if the Administrative Agent decides in its reasonable discretion that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of
such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides in its reasonable discretion is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

 “Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current
Benchmark: 
 (1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the
later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or
indefinitely ceases to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); 

  
 6 













 (2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark
Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein; or 
 (3) in the
case of a Term SOFR Transition Event, the date that is thirty (30) days after the date a Term SOFR Notice is provided to the Lenders and the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.10(h); or 

(4) in the case of an Early Opt-in Election, the sixth (6th) Business Day after the
date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Lenders, so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date
notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Lenders, written notice of objection to such Early Opt-in Election from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

 For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier
than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to
have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component
used in the calculation thereof). 
 “Benchmark Transition Event” means, with respect to any Benchmark, the occurrence of
one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark: 
 (1) a public statement or publication of
information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such
component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component
thereof); 
 (2) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such
Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the NYFRB, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with
jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of
such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there
is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 

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

 SECTION 1.08 Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest
rate on Eurocurrency Rate Advances is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”). LIBOR is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain
short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that: (a) immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of all seven
euro LIBOR settings, all seven Swiss Franc LIBOR settings, the spot next, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month Japanese Yen LIBOR
settings, the overnight, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings, and the 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; immediately after December 31, 2021, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month Japanese Yen LIBOR settings and the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month British
Pound Sterling LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to consultation by the FCA, be provided on a changed methodology (or “synthetic”) basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality
they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored; and immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market
and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further
action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments.
Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBOR. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 2.10 provides the mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.10, of any change to
the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Advances is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration,
submission or any other matter related to LIBOR or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such
alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.10, whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and
(ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.10), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate
will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

SECTION 2.01 Advances. Subject only to the conditions set forth in Section 3.01, each Lender severally and not jointly agrees on
the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth to make Advances denominated in Dollars to any Borrower that delivers a Notice of Borrowing in a single drawing on the Closing Date, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount of such Lender’s
Commitment on the Closing Date. Upon the making of any Advance by a Lender, such Lender’s Commitment will be permanently reduced by the aggregate principal amount of such Advance. Advances borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.01 and prepaid
or repaid may not be reborrowed. 
 SECTION 2.02 Making the Advances. (a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice by a Borrower,
given not later than 11:30 A.M. (New York City time) on (1) the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances or (2) the date of the proposed
Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or other electronic communication. Each notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice
of Borrowing”) shall be in writing or by telephone, and if by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, including by telecopier (or other electronic communication) in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, signed by a Responsible
Officer and specifying therein the identity of the applicable Borrower and the requested (i) date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) Type of Advance comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such
Borrowing, (iv) initial Interest Period for such Borrowing, if such Borrowing is to consist of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (v) instructions for crediting the proceeds of the Borrowing (which applicable account details shall
be or shall have been provided to the Administrative Agent in writing) and (vi) whether such notice is conditioned on the occurrence of any event and if such notice is so conditioned, a description of such event (it being understood that
such notice may be revoked by such Borrower if such condition is not satisfied). Each Lender shall, before 1:30 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the
Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing. 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 applicable Borrower in immediately available funds as specified by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent in a signed writing delivered to the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the time the applicable Notice of Borrowing is delivered (or such later time as the Administrative Agent shall agree). 

(b) Anything in Section 2.02(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, a Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Rate Advances if the obligation of
the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Sections 2.10 or 2.14 and the Eurocurrency Rate Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than ten separate Borrowings. 

  
 39 













 (c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be binding on the applicable Borrower. In the case of any
Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the applicable Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any reasonable loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender 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 Section 3.01, including, without limitation, any reasonable 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. 
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time 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 Section 2.02(a) and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not
have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay or to repay 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 such Borrower until the date such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the applicable Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate
applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount, and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding principal amount, such amount so paid shall
constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. Any payment by such Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such
payment to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) The failure of any Lender to make the Advances 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 Advances on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advances to be made by such other Lender on the
date of any Borrowing. 
 (f) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Advance to be made by such Lender as
provided herein, and such funds are not made available to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to such Borrowing are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(x) the principal amount of Advances of such Borrower outstanding on the Closing Date and (y) the percentage set forth opposite each applicable fiscal quarter as set forth below, with the balance of the Advances due in full on the Maturity

 SECTION 2.09 Interest on Advances. (a) Scheduled Interest. Each Borrower shall pay
interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance made to it from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum: 

(i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times
to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to time and (B) the Applicable Margin, payable in arrears quarterly on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, during such periods and on the date
such Advances are paid in full. 

  
 41 













 (ii) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance
is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (A) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance, and (B) the Applicable Margin, payable in
arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date

 (b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.01(a), the Administrative Agent shall, upon the request of the Required Lenders, require each Borrower to pay interest (“Default Interest”), which amount shall accrue as
of the date of occurrence of the Event of Default, on (i) amounts that are overdue from such Borrower, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in Section 2.09(a)(i) or 2.09(a)(ii), at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum
above the rate per annum required to be paid on such overdue amount pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(i) or 2.09(a)(ii) and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder by such
Borrower that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per
annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Advances for the account of such Borrower pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(i), provided, however, that following acceleration of the Advances for the account of such Borrower pursuant
to Section 6.01, Default Interest shall accrue and be payable hereunder whether or not previously required by the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 2.10 Interest Rate Determination. (a) Subject to clauses (e) to (h) of this Section 2.10, the Administrative
Agent shall give prompt notice to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.09(a)(i) or 2.09(a)(ii). 

(b) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be
conclusive and binding absent demonstrable error) that adequate and reasonable means (including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate or because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis) do not exist for
ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time, or (ii) the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that (x) they are unable to obtain
matching deposits in the London inter-bank market at or about 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the second Business Day before the making of a Borrowing in sufficient amounts to fund their respective Advances as a part of such Borrowing during its
Interest Period or (y) the LIBO Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Required Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such
Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the applicable Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (A) such Borrower will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, either (x) prepay such Advances
or (y) Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (B) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended, until the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable
Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 

  
 42 













 (c) If a Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any
Eurocurrency Rate Advances made to such Borrower in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify such Borrower and the Lenders and
such Eurocurrency Rate Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, continue as Eurocurrency Rate Advances with an Interest Period of one month. 

(d) [Reserved]. 
 (e)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have
occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for
such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or
further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such
Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day
after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not
received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. 
 (f) In
connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan
Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

(g) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a
Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (i) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination,
decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.10, including any determination with 

  
 43 













 
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 reasonable discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this
Section 2.10. 
 (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in
this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the
then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (h) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrowers a Term SOFR Notice. 

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation
of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or LIBO Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from
time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor
for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a
Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of
“Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 
 (j) Upon any
Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, such Borrower may revoke any request for a conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made, converted or continued during any
Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, such Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a conversion to Base Rate Advances. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the
then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. Furthermore, if any
Eurocurrency Rate Advance is outstanding on the date of any Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to such Eurocurrency Rate, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to
such Advance (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Advance shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Base Rate Advance. 

  
 44 













 (k) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon the written
election of the Required Lenders, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert
Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended. 
 SECTION 2.11 Optional Conversion of Advances. Each Borrower may on
any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion (or in the case of a Conversion into Base Rate Advances, the
Business Day prior) and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.10 and 2.14, Convert Advances made to such Borrower of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of
Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances made on a date other than on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, shall be subject to any amounts owing pursuant to Section 9.04(c), any Conversion of Base
Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be in an Applicable Minimum Amount, and no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion shall,
within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the duration of the
initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the applicable Borrower giving such notice. 

SECTION 2.12 Optional Prepayments of Advances. (a) A Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent stating the
proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the proposed prepayment, given not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date (which date shall be a Business Day) of such proposed prepayment, in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base
Rate Advances, and not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) at least two Business Days prior to the date of such proposed prepayment, in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, and if such notice is given, such
Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing made to such Borrower in whole or ratably in part, and in the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, together with accrued interest to the
date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of the Applicable Minimum Amount and (ii) if any prepayment of a
Eurocurrency Rate Advance is made on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, such Borrower shall also pay any amount owing pursuant to Section 9.04(c); and provided, further,
that, subject to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding proviso, any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the consummation of a specific transaction, in which case
such notice may be revoked by such Borrower if such condition is not satisfied. 
 (b) [Reserved]. 

(c) All prepayments of Advances pursuant to this Section 2.12 will be without premium or penalty, other than compensation for breakage
costs incurred by the Lenders in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances. 

  
 45 













 SECTION 2.13 Increased Costs. (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of
or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any directive, guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority including, without limitation, any agency of the European
Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case after the date hereof (or with respect to any Lender (or the Administrative Agent), if later, the date on which such Lender (or the
Administrative Agent) becomes a Lender (or the Administrative Agent), as applicable), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender or the Administrative Agent of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Advances (excluding for
purposes of this Section 2.13 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes as to which such Lender is indemnified under Section 2.16, (ii) Excluded Taxes or (iii) Other Taxes), then the Reporting Entity shall from time
to time, upon demand by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent, if applicable), pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender (or for its own account, if
applicable) additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Administrative Agent for such increased cost. A certificate describing such increased costs in reasonable detail delivered to the Reporting Entity shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. 
 (b) If any Lender reasonably determines that compliance with any law or regulation or
any directive, guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority including, without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law), in
each case promulgated or given after the date hereof (or with respect to any Lender, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender, as applicable), affects or would affect the amount of capital, insurance or liquidity required or expected
to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital, insurance or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend (or any participations
therein) hereunder and other commitments of this type, the applicable Borrower shall, from time to time upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such
Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital, insurance or liquidity to be allocable to the
existence of such Lender’s Advances, commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable
error. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.13 to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 2.13, (A) the Dodd Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations issued thereunder or in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, and (B) all requests, rules, guidelines and directions promulgated by the Bank for
International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any similar or successor agency, or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case, pursuant to Basel III) shall be deemed to have been enacted following
the date hereof (or with respect to any Lender, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender); provided that no Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) unless such Lender is making corresponding demands on
similarly situated borrowers in comparable credit facilities to which such Lender is a party. 

  
 46 













 SECTION 2.14 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, with
respect to Advances, (a) if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority,
including without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority, asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency
Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances hereunder, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance of such Lender will automatically, upon such notification, be Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of such
Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to Convert Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and such Lender that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer
exist and (b) if the circumstances described in clause (a) shall have occurred and, if Lenders constituting the Required Lenders so notify the Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance of each Lender will automatically,
upon such notification, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of each Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to Convert Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall
notify the Borrowers and each Lender that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 
 SECTION 2.15 Payments and
Computations. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under this Agreement not later than 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative
Agent’s Office in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to
Section 2.02(c), 2.13, 2.14, 2.16, 2.17 or 9.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender 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 Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to
Section 9.07(f), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the assignor for amounts which have
accrued to but excluding the effective date of such assignment and to the assignee for amounts which have accrued from and after the effective date of such assignment. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or
deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. 
 (b) Each Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the extent
payment owed to such Lender by such Borrower is not made when due hereunder, to charge from time to time against any or all of such Borrower’s accounts with such Lender any amount so due, unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such
Lender. 
 (c) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate when the Base Rate is based on the “prime rate” shall be made by
the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as the case may be, and all other computations of interest based on the Base Rate and all computations of interest based on the LIBO Rate or the Federal Funds Rate shall be
made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or such fees are payable. Each
determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error. 

  
 47 













 (d) Whenever any payment hereunder 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 fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if
such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. 

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Lenders hereunder that such 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 Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall
repay to the Administrative Agent, following prompt notice thereof, forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such
Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. 
 (f) If at any time insufficient funds are received by
and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied towards payment of the amounts then due hereunder ratably among the parties entitled thereto, in
accordance with the amounts then due to such parties. 
 SECTION 2.16 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of any
obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes, excluding, in the case of each Lender and each Agent, (i) Taxes imposed on (or measured
by) its overall net income (however denominated), franchise Taxes, and branch profits Taxes, in each case only to the extent imposed by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Lender or such Agent, as the
case may be, is organized, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or such Lender’s or such Agent’s principal office, or as a result of a present or former connection
between such Lender or such Agent and the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (other than connections arising from such Lender or such Agent having executed, delivered, become a party to, performed its obligations under, received payments under, received
or perfected a security interest under, engaged in any other transaction pursuant to or enforced any Loan Document, or sold or assigned an interest in any Advance or Loan Document), (ii) backup withholding Tax imposed by the United States on
payments by any Loan Party to any Lender, (iii) any Tax that is imposed by reason of such recipient’s failure to comply with Section 2.16(f), (iv) any U.S. federal or Luxembourg or Netherlands withholding Tax imposed pursuant to a law
in effect at the time a Lender becomes a party to this Agreement or acquires an interest in the Advance (or designates a new Applicable Lending Office), except to the extent that such Lender (or its 


  
 48 













 
assignor, if any) was entitled, immediately before the designation of a new Applicable Lending Office or assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Loan Party with respect to such
withholding Tax pursuant to this Section 2.16, and (v) any taxes imposed under FATCA, including as a result of such recipient’s failure to comply with Section 2.16(f)(iii) (all such excluded Taxes in respect of payments under any
Loan Document being hereinafter referred to as “Excluded Taxes”). If the applicable Withholding Agent shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any
Lender or any Agent, (A) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions and (B) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with
applicable law. If a Loan Party shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Taxes (other than (i) Taxes required to be deducted by way of a Tax Deduction in which case the provisions of Section 2.16(g) and Section 2.16(h) shall
apply or (ii) Excluded Taxes) from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Lender or any Agent, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required
deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16) such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made. 

(b) In addition, without duplication of any other obligation set forth in this Section 2.16, the Reporting Entity shall, or shall cause
the applicable Loan Party to, pay to the relevant Governmental Authority any present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording, filing Taxes and any other similar Taxes, that arise from any payment made by it under any Loan
Document or from the execution, delivery, performance or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document, except to the extent such Taxes are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to a sale, an assignment or the designation of
a new Applicable Lending Office (other than an assignment or designation made pursuant to Section 2.21) (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 

(c) Without duplication of any other obligation set forth in this Section 2.16, the Reporting Entity shall, or shall cause the applicable
Loan Party to, indemnify each Lender and each Agent for the full amount of Taxes (other than (i) withholding Tax imposed by United Kingdom legislation which is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.16(g) or would have
been so compensated but was not solely because one of the exclusions in Section 2.16(g)(iv) applied, (ii) withholding Tax imposed by Irish legislation which is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.16(h) or would
have been so compensated but was not solely because one of the exclusions in Section 2.16(h)(iv) applied, (iii) any Excluded Taxes or (iv) for the avoidance of doubt, any Taxes which were compensated by an increased payment under
Section 2.16(a)) and Other Taxes imposed on, payable or paid by such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, in respect of Advances made to any Loan Party and any liability (including, without limitation, penalties, interest and expenses)
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or such Agent, as
the case may be, makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Reporting Entity by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or
on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. 

  
 49 













 (d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after
demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) and
(ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.07(h) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in
connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate describing in
reasonable detail the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all
amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d). 

(e) As soon as practicable after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes for which any Loan Party is responsible under this
Section 2.16, such Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address as specified pursuant to Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 

(f) Except in connection with withholding tax imposed by United Kingdom legislation (to which the provisions of Section 2.16(g) apply) or
by Irish legislation (to which the provisions of Section 2.16(h) apply): 
    (i) Any Lender that is
entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent, or the applicable taxing authority, at the time or times
prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable laws or by the taxing authorities of any applicable jurisdiction and such
other documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding and as may be required to secure any applicable exemption from, or
reduction in the rate of, deduction or withholding imposed by any jurisdiction in respect of any payments to be made to such Lender hereunder from any applicable taxing authority. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the applicable
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine
whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding, including withholding tax imposed by United Kingdom or Irish legislation, or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences,
the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.16(f)(ii) and (iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or
submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

  
 50 













 (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (x) any Lender
that is a US Person shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such
Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; and (y) any Lender that is not a US Person (a
“Non-US Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the
recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-US Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent),
whichever of the following is applicable:

 (iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject
to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable),
such Lender shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such 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) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Borrower or the
Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for the purposes
of this clause 2.16(f)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 (g) United
Kingdom Tax Gross-Up. 
 (i) Each Loan Party shall make all payments to be made
by it without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law. 
 (ii) The Reporting Entity shall promptly upon
becoming aware that a Loan Party must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Administrative Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent on becoming
so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Administrative Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Reporting Entity and such Loan Party. 

(iii) If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by a Loan Party, the amount of the payment due from such Loan Party
shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required. 

(iv) A payment shall not be increased under paragraph (iii) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed
by the United Kingdom, if on the date on which the payment falls due: 
 (A) the payment could have been made to the relevant
Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or
in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority; or 

(B) the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the Loan Party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could
have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 2.16(g)(vii) or (viii) as applicable; or 

(C) the relevant Lender is a Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (i)(2) of the definition of Qualifying Lender and:


  
 52 













 (1) an officer of H.M. Revenue & Customs has given (and not
revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 931 of the ITA which relates to the payment and that Lender has received from the Borrower making the payment a certified copy of that Direction; and 

(2) the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if that Direction had not been made; or 

(D) the relevant Lender is a Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (i)(2) of the definition of Qualifying Lender and:

 (1) the Lender has not given a Tax Confirmation to the relevant Borrower; and 

(2) the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a Tax Confirmation to the
relevant Borrower, on the basis that the Tax Confirmation would have enabled the relevant Borrower to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the ITA. 

(v) If a Loan Party is required to make a Tax Deduction, such Loan Party shall make such Tax Deduction and any payment required
in connection with such Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law. 
 (vi) Within
thirty days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with such Tax Deduction, the Loan Party making such Tax Deduction shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for the Lender Party entitled to the payment a statement
under section 975 of the ITA or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Lender Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority. 

(vii) (A) Subject to (B) below, a Treaty Lender and each Loan Party which makes a payment to which such Treaty Lender
is entitled shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for such Loan Party to obtain authorization to make such payment without a Tax Deduction. 

(B) (1) A Treaty Lender which is a Lender on the date on which this Agreement is entered into and which (x) holds a
passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence opposite its name on Schedule I; and 

(2) a New Lender that (x) is a Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and
(y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in the Assignment and Acceptance which it executes, 

  
 53 













 and having done so, that Lender shall be under no obligation pursuant to paragraph (vii)(A),
or for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2.16(f), above. 
 (viii) If a Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number
and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (g)(vii) above and: 
 (A) a Borrower making a payment to
such Lender has not made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender; or 
 (B) a Borrower making a payment to such
Lender has made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender but: 
 (1) such Borrower DTTP Filing has been rejected by HM
Revenue & Customs; or 
 (2) HM Revenue & Customs has not given such Borrower authority to make payments to such Lender
without Tax Deduction within 60 days of the date of such Borrower DTTP Filing; 
 and in each case, such Borrower has notified that Lender in
writing of either (1) or (2) above, then such Lender and such Borrower shall cooperate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for such Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without a Tax Deduction. 

(ix) If a Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph
(g)(vii) above, no Loan Party shall make a Borrower DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment(s) or its participation in any Advance unless the Lender otherwise
agrees. 
 (x) A Borrower shall, promptly on making a Borrower DTTP Filing, deliver a copy of that Borrower DTTP Filing to
the Administrative Agent for delivery to the relevant Lender. 
 (xi) Each Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement
after the date of this Agreement shall indicate in the Assignment and Acceptance which it executes on becoming a party, and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any Loan Party, which of the following categories it
falls in: 
 (A) not a Qualifying Lender 

(B) a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or 

(C) a Treaty Lender. 

  
 54 













 If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this
Section 2.16(g)(xi) then such New Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Loan Party) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category applies (and
the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Loan Party). For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Acceptance shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 2.16(g)(xi).

 (xii) A UK Non-Bank Lender which becomes a party on the day on which this
Agreement is entered into gives a Tax Confirmation to the relevant Borrower by entry into this Agreement. 
 (xiii) A UK Non-Bank Lender shall promptly notify the relevant Borrower and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set forth in the Tax Confirmation. 

(h) Irish Tax Gross-Up. 

(i) Each Loan Party shall make all payments to be made by it without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by
law. 
 (ii) The Reporting Entity shall promptly upon becoming aware that a Loan Party must make a Tax Deduction (or that
there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Administrative Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the
Administrative Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Reporting Entity and such Loan Party. 

(iii) If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by a Loan Party, the amount of the payment due from such Loan Party
shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required. 

(iv) A payment shall not be increased under paragraph (iii) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed
by the Revenue Commissioners of Ireland, if on the date on which the payment falls due (A) the payment could have been made to the Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been an Irish Qualifying Lender but, on that date, the Lender is
not or has ceased to be an Irish Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Irish Tax Treaty, or any
published practice or published concession of any relevant tax authority, or (B) the relevant Lender is an Irish Treaty Lender and the Loan Party making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender
without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under this Section 2.16(h). 
 (v) If a Loan
Party is required to make a Tax Deduction, such Loan Party shall make such Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with such Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law. 

  
 55 













 (vi) Within thirty days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment
required in connection with such Tax Deduction, the Loan Party making such Tax Deduction shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for the Lender Party entitled to the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Lender Party that the Tax
Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority. 
 (vii) An Irish
Treaty Lender and each Loan Party which makes a payment to which such Irish Treaty Lender is entitled shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for such Loan Party to obtain authorization to make such payment without an
Irish Tax Deduction. 
 (viii) Each Lender which becomes a party hereto on the day on which this Agreement is entered into
confirms that, on such date, it is an Irish Qualifying Lender. Each Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall indicate in the Assignment and Acceptance which it executes on becoming a party, and for
the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any Loan Party, whether or not it is an Irish Qualifying Lender. If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 2.16(h)(vii) then such New Lender
shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Loan Party) as if it is not an Irish Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category applies (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt
of such notification, shall inform the Loan Party). For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Acceptance shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 2.16(h)(vii). 

(i) (i) Each party hereto may make any deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with such
deduction, and no party hereto shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for such deduction; and 

(ii) Each party hereto shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a deduction as required by FATCA (or that there is
any change in the rate or the basis of such deduction), notify the party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition, shall notify the Reporting Entity and the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify the other Finance
Parties. 
 (j) In the event that an additional payment is made under Section 2.16(a) or 2.16(c) for the account of any Lender and such
Lender, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, determines that it has received a refund of any tax paid or payable by it in respect of or calculated with reference to the deduction or withholding giving rise to such additional payment, such
Lender shall, to the extent that it reasonably determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such refund, pay to the applicable Borrower such amount as such Lender shall, in its reasonable discretion exercised in
good faith, have determined is attributable to such deduction or withholding and will leave such Lender (after such payment) in no worse position than it would have been had such Borrower not been required to make such deduction or withholding.
Nothing contained in this Section 2.16(j) shall (i) interfere with the right of a Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit or (ii) oblige any Lender to disclose any information relating to its tax returns,
tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or (iii) require any Lender to take or refrain from taking any action that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be
entitled. 

  
 56 













 (k) Each participant of an interest in any Commitment, Advance or Loan Document hereunder
shall be entitled to the benefits of this Section 2.16 (subject to the requirements and limitations herein, including the requirements under Section 2.16(f), (g) and (h) (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 2.16(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender and the information and documentation required under 2.16(g) and 2.16(h) will be delivered to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent)) to the same extent as if it were
a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment hereunder; provided that such participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.21 as if it were an assignee hereunder; and (B) shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under this Section 2.16, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change
in law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation. 
 (l) Each party’s obligations under this
Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all
obligations under the Loan Documents. 
 (m) For purposes of this Section 2.16, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 

SECTION 2.17 Sharing of Payments, Etc. Subject to Section 2.20 in the case of a Defaulting Lender, if any Lender shall obtain any
payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.02(c), 2.13, 2.14(a), 2.16 or 9.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share
of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender 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, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall
repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to
(b) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. It is acknowledged and agreed that the foregoing provisions of
this Section 2.17 reflect an agreement entered into solely among the Lenders (and not any Borrower or any Loan Party) and the consent of any Borrower or any Loan Party shall not be required to give effect to the acquisition of a participation
by a Lender pursuant to such provisions or with respect to any action taken by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent pursuant to such provisions. The provisions of this Section 2.17 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made
by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement as in effect from time to time or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances
to any assignee or participant permitted hereunder. 

  
 57 













 SECTION 2.18 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available, and
each applicable Borrower agrees that such proceeds shall be applied, to refinance the Existing Term Loan Credit Agreement and to pay all or a portion of the costs incurred by STERIS plc or any of its Subsidiaries in connection therewith. 

SECTION 2.19 Evidence of Debt. (a) The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(g) shall
include (i) the date, currency and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder by each Borrower, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the
Administrative Agent from each Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (b) Entries made reasonably and in good faith by
the Administrative Agent in the Register 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 each Borrower to each Lender under
this Agreement, absent demonstrable error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit, expand
or otherwise affect the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 2.20 Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (it being understood that the
determination of whether a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender shall be made as described in Section 2.20(c)): 

(i) [Reserved]; 

(ii) [Reserved]; 

(iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and
waivers hereunder, and the Commitment and the outstanding Advances of such Lender hereunder will not be taken into account in determining whether the Required Lenders or all or all affected Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment or
waiver (and the definition of “Required Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the Commitment of such Defaulting
Lender, postpone the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of, or stated rate of interest on, any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of the stated rate at
which any fees payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder are calculated (in each case, other than as permitted by Section 9.01(a)(iii)), or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and 

  
 58 













 (iv) the Reporting Entity may, or may cause the applicable Borrower to, at
its sole expense and effort, require such Defaulting Lender to assign and delegate its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07. 

(b) [Reserved]. 
 (c) If the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and
subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to
fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of a Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from
Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

(d) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of such
Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 6.01 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.05 shall be applied at such time or times as
follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the funding of any Advance; third, as the Reporting Entity may request, to be held in a deposit
account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to a Borrower as a result of
any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as
otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or otherwise pursuant to this
Section 2.20(d) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

SECTION 2.21 Mitigation. (a) Each Lender shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event
of which it has knowledge that will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such Lender’s good faith judgment, otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender) to mitigate or avoid, any obligation
by any Loan Party to pay any amount pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.16 (and, if any Lender has given notice of any such event and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Lender shall promptly so notify such Loan Party and the Administrative
Agent). In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender will (at the request of such Loan Party) designate a different funding office if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to such Loan Party of) any event
described in the preceding sentence and such designation will not, in such Lender’s good faith judgment, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Reporting Entity hereby agrees to, or to cause the applicable Loan Party to,
pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation. 

  
 59 













 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender fails to notify the
applicable Borrower of any event or circumstance which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to Section 2.13 within 180 days after such Lender obtains knowledge of such event or circumstance, then such Lender shall not be entitled
to compensation from such Borrower for any amount arising prior to the date which is 180 days before the date on which such Lender notifies such Borrower of such event or circumstance. 

SECTION 2.22 VAT. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.16 to the contrary: 

(a) All amounts expressed to be payable under a Loan Document by any Loan Party to a Lender Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the
consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender Party to
any Loan Party under a Loan Document and such Lender Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Loan Party must pay to such Lender Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for
such supply or, if later, on presentation of a valid VAT invoice) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Lender Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Loan Party). 

(b) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Lender Party (the
“Recipient”) under a Loan Document, and any Loan Party other than the Recipient (the “Relevant Party”) is required by the terms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the
Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration): 
 (i) (where
the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient
must (where this paragraph (i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable
on that supply; and 
 (ii) (where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT)
the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or
repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT. 
 (c) Where a Loan Document requires any Loan Party to reimburse or
indemnify a Lender Party for any cost or expense, that Loan Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Lender Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that
such Lender Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority. 

  
 60 













 (d) Any reference in this Section 2.22 to any Loan Party shall, at any time when such
Loan Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the Person who is treated as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under the
grouping rules (as provided for in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC or as implemented by a European Member State, or equivalent provisions in any other jurisdiction). 

(e) In relation to any supply made by a Lender Party to any Loan Party under a Loan Document, if reasonably requested by such Lender Party,
that Loan Party must promptly provide such Lender Party with details of that Loan Party’s VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Lender Party’s VAT reporting requirements in relation
to such supply.

 (d) Preservation of Existence, Etc. Do, or cause to be done, all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its and each other Loan Party’s (i) existence and (ii) rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that any Loan Party may
consummate any merger or consolidation permitted under Section 5.02(b); and provided, further, that no Loan Party shall be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the management of the Borrowers shall determine
that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of such Loan Party and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Lenders. 

(e) Visitation Rights. At any reasonable time and from time to time during normal business hours (but not more than once annually if no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), upon reasonable notice to the Borrowers, permit the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders, or any agents or representatives thereof, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records
and books of account, and visit the properties, of the Consolidated Group, and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Consolidated Group with any of the members of the senior treasury staff of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party.

 (f) Keeping of Books. Keep, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to keep, proper books of record and account, in which full and

advantageously conducted at all times, except, in each case, where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

(h) Guaranties. 

(w) Subject to clause (y) below, cause any member of the Consolidated Group (other than any Loan Party) that becomes an
obligor in respect of any Existing STERIS Notes, the Delayed Draw Term Loan Agreement, the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Bridge Facility, the Securities or other Material Indebtedness, to guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to a joinder
hereto substantially in the form of Exhibit D or any other form agreed by the Administrative Agent, within 60 days thereof (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its discretion). 

(x) Upon the occurrence of a Guaranty Trigger Event, cause, within 60 days of the Guaranty Trigger Date (or such later date as

organized in England and Wales or any Subsidiary of the Reporting Entity organized under the laws of Ireland or England and Wales that is or becomes a direct or indirect parent of STERIS Corporation be required to provide a guaranty hereunder if the
Reporting Entity is treated as a United States corporation for United States federal tax purposes. If the Reporting Entity is treated as a United States corporation for United States federal tax purposes, any guarantees from Synergy or its
Subsidiaries or any Subsidiary of the Reporting Entity organized under the laws of Ireland or England and Wales that is or becomes a direct or indirect parent of STERIS Corporation shall terminate automatically and each such guarantee will be void
ab initio. 

  
 69 













 (z) To the extent that a Guaranty Trigger Period is then in effect and the
target or any subsidiary of the target in a Material Acquisition constitutes a wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary that is a Material Subsidiary upon consummation of such Material Acquisition, use reasonable best efforts to cause such target and any
such subsidiary of such target to guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to a joinder hereto substantially in the form of Exhibit D or any other form agreed by the Administrative Agent within 60 days of the consummation of such Material

Conduct, and cause each member of the Consolidated Group to conduct, all material transactions otherwise permitted under this Agreement with any of their Affiliates (excluding the members of the Consolidated Group) on terms that are fair and

good faith determination of the Borrowers qualified to render such letter, which letter states that such transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Borrowers or the relevant member of the Consolidated Group, as applicable, than would
be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate.

occurred under this Section 6.01(f), the amount of any such judgment or order shall be reduced to the extent that (A) such judgment or order is covered by a valid and binding policy of insurance between the defendant and the
insurer covering payment thereof and (B) such insurer, which shall be rated at least “A” by A.M. Best Company, has been notified of, and has not disputed the claim made for payment of, such judgment or order; or

 ARTICLE VII 

THE AGENTS 
 SECTION 7.01
Authorization and Action. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take
such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely
for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and neither the Borrowers nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term
“agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any
applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. 

SECTION 7.02 Administrative Agent Individually. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and
powers in its capacity as a Lender, as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” as applicable, shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or
unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial
advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account
therefor to the Lenders. 

  
 81 













 SECTION 7.03 Duties of Administrative Agent; Exculpatory Provisions. The
Administrative Agent shall have no duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent: 
 (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and
is continuing; 
 (b) 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 the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing 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); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to
liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or
termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and 
 (c) 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 Borrowers or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as
the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not 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 the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the
circumstances as provided in Sections 6.01 and 9.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall
not be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers or a Lender. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent. 

  
 82 













 Each of the Finance Parties hereby exempts the Administrative Agent from the restrictions
pursuant to section 181 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) and similar restrictions applicable to it pursuant to any other applicable law, in each case to the extent legally possible to such Finance Party. A Finance Party
which cannot grant such exemption shall notify the Administrative Agent accordingly and, upon request of the Administrative Agent, either act in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document as required pursuant to this
Agreement and/or such other Loan Document or grant a special power of attorney to a party acting on its behalf, in a manner that is not prohibited pursuant to section 181 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) and/or any
other applicable laws. 
 SECTION 7.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative 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 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 or Persons (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by
telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page). The Administrative 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 an Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative
Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Advance. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

SECTION 7.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers
hereunder or any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may
perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the
Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as
activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines
in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents. 

SECTION 7.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the
Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and only so long as no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the 

  
 83 













 
United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and consented to by the Borrowers and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the
retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, with the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has
been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. 
 (b) If the
Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrowers and such Person remove
such Person as Administrative Agent and, with the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and consented to by
the Borrowers and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in
accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. 
 (c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective
Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to
the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as a successor
Administrative Agent is appointed as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 2.16(l) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective
Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as
provided above in this Section). The fees payable by each Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or
removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article VII and Section 9.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative
Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative
Agent. 

  
 84

 (a) Each Lender represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a
commercial lending facility, (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender in the ordinary course of business, and not for the purpose

Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to
make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial
loans or to provide such other facilities. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information
as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

 (b) (i) Each Lender hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent
has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and
collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one
Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date
such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules
on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for
value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this Section 7.07(b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 

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

  
 85 













 (iii) The Borrowers and each other Loan Party from time to time party hereto
hereby agree that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of
such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any obligations owed by a Borrower or any other Loan Party. 

(iv) Each party’s obligations under this Section 7.07(b) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the
Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

SECTION 7.08 Other Agents. None of the Lenders identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as an
“arranger”, “book runner”, “syndication agent”, “co-documentation agent” or “senior managing agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability,
responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 

SECTION 7.09 Certain ERISA Matters. (a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender
party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective
Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances or the Commitments and this Agreement, and the conditions
for exemptive relief thereunder are and will continue to be satisfied in connection therewith; 

  
 86 













 (iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a
“Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into,
participate in, administer and perform the Advances or the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances or the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the
requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of
Part I or PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances or the Commitments and this Agreement, or; 

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole
discretion, and such Lender. 
 (b) In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately
preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a),
such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party

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

GUARANTY 
 SECTION 8.01
Guaranty. Subject to Section 5.01(h)(y), each Guarantor, on a joint and several basis, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lender Parties (defined below) (the
“Guaranty”), as a guarantee of payment and not merely as a guarantee of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of all existing and future
indebtedness and liabilities, whether for principal, interest (including interest accruing during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding),
premiums, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, voluntary or involuntary, of the Reporting Entity and Borrowers to the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent (collectively, the “Lender Parties”) arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including all renewals, extensions and modifications thereof (collectively, the “Guaranteed
Obligations”). This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed Obligations, or by the existence, validity,
enforceability, perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty (other than
payment in full in cash). 

  
 87 













 SECTION 8.02 No Termination. Except as permitted under Section 8.08, this
Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and
payable) and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty are indefeasibly paid and performed in full and the Commitments have terminated. 

SECTION 8.03 Waiver by the Guarantors. Each Guarantor waives notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty and of the extension or
continuation of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof. Each Guarantor further waives presentment, protest, notice, dishonor or default, demand for payment and any other notices to which the Guarantor might otherwise be entitled other than
any notice required hereunder. 
 SECTION 8.04 Subrogation. No Guarantor shall exercise any right of subrogation, reimbursement,
exoneration, indemnification or contribution, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Lender Parties or any similar right with respect to any payment it makes under this Guaranty with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations until all of
the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable) have been paid in full in cash and the Commitments have terminated. If any amount is paid to the Guarantor in violation of the foregoing
limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lender Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Lender Parties to reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 

SECTION 8.05 Waiver of Defenses. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional
irrespective of, and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following: 

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability against the Borrowers of this Agreement or any agreement or other instrument relating thereto; 

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other
obligation of the Borrowers under or in respect of this Agreement or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Agreement, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the
extension of additional credit to the Borrowers or any other member of the Consolidated Group or otherwise; 
 (c) any taking, exchange,
release or non-perfection of any collateral or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 

  
 88 













 (d) any manner of application of collateral, if any, or assets, or proceeds thereof, to all
or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral or other assets for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of a Borrower or other member of the Consolidated Group;

 (f) any failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to disclose to a Guarantor any information relating to the business, condition
(financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of the Borrowers now or hereafter known to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to
disclose such information); 
 (g) the release or reduction of liability of any other Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to
the Guaranteed Obligations; or 
 (h) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of
or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent or any Lender that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety (other than defense of payment in full
in cash). 
 This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Lender Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of a Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been
made. 
 SECTION 8.06 Exhaustion of Other Remedies Not Required. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are those of primary
obligor, and not merely as surety. Each Guarantor waives diligence by the Lender Parties and action on delinquency in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, including, without limitation, any provision of law requiring the Lender
Parties to exhaust any right or remedy or to take any action against a Borrower, any other guarantor or any other Person or property before enforcing this Guaranty against such Guarantor. 

SECTION 8.07 Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed, upon any
action or proceeding, of a Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors immediately upon demand by the Administrative Agent as and to the extent that the Administrative Agent has the
right to demand such amounts pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof. 
 SECTION 8.08 Release of Guarantees. 

(a) Upon a Guaranty Termination Date, each Guarantor (other than STERIS Corporation, STERIS Limited, STERIS Irish FinCo and the Reporting
Entity) shall automatically without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party be released from this Guaranty (for so long as such ratings are maintained at such levels or higher), in each case except to the extent that any
such entity remains an obligor in respect of any Existing STERIS Notes, the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Delayed Draw Term Loan Agreement, the Bridge Facility, the Securities or other Material Indebtedness, in which case the Guaranty of such
entity shall remain in effect until such indebtedness is repaid or such entity shall cease to be a guarantor thereof. 

  
 89 













 (b) A Guarantor (other than STERIS Corporation, STERIS Limited, STERIS Irish FinCo and the
Reporting Entity) that was required to guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to Section 5.01(h)(w) shall automatically without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party be released from its obligations hereunder
when the applicable indebtedness with respect to which such Guarantor was an obligor is repaid or such entity shall cease to be a guarantor thereof, in each case except to the extent a Guaranty Trigger Period is then in effect, in which case the
Guaranty of such entity shall remain in effect until the Guaranty Termination Date. 
 (c) A Guarantor (other than STERIS Corporation, STERIS
Limited, STERIS Irish FinCo and the Reporting Entity) shall automatically without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party be released from its obligations hereunder (i) upon the consummation of any transaction
permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Reporting Entity, (ii) at such time that such Guarantor is no longer (x) a Material Subsidiary of STERIS Corporation that is a Domestic
Subsidiary, (y) a Material Subsidiary of Synergy that is organized under the laws of England and Wales (or in the case of Synergy itself, no longer a Material Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of England and Wales) or (z) a
Material Subsidiary of the Reporting Entity and a direct or indirect parent of STERIS Corporation that is organized under the laws of Ireland or England and Wales; provided that if the Reporting Entity desires such entity to remain a Guarantor, the
Reporting Entity shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing and such entity shall remain a Guarantor, or (iii) upon the occurrence of the applicable circumstances set forth in Section 5.01(h)(y), in which case the applicable
guarantee will be void ab initio as set forth therein.(d) In connection with any release pursuant to this Section 8.08, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Guarantor, at such Guarantor’s expense, all documents that
such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 8.08 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 8.09 Guaranty Limitations. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder
shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable foreign, federal and state bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership laws, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any
similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this guarantee and each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. This Guaranty does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this Guaranty constituting unlawful
financial assistance within the meaning of section 678 and 679 of the Companies Act 2006 or under section 82 of the Companies Act 2014 of Ireland (as the case may be) or constituting a breach of section 239 of the Companies Act 2014 of Ireland and,
with respect to any Person that becomes a Guarantor after the date of this Agreement, shall be subject to any limitations set forth in the joinder hereto pursuant to which such Person shall become a Guarantor.

 ARTICLE IX 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 SECTION
9.01 Amendments, Etc. 
 (a) Subject to Section 2.10(e) and (f), no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor
consent to any departure by a Loan Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders and the Loan Parties and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing, do any of the following: 

(i) waive any of the conditions specified in Section 3.01 unless signed by each Lender directly and adversely affected
thereby; 
 (ii) increase or extend the Commitments of any Lender or modify the currency in which a Lender is required to
make extensions of credit under this Agreement, unless signed by such Lender; 
 (iii) reduce the principal of, or stated
rate of interest on, the Advances, the stated rate at which any fees hereunder are calculated, or any other amounts payable hereunder, unless signed by each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided that only the consent of the
Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Interest” or to waive any obligation of a Borrower to pay Default Interest; 

(iv) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable
hereunder, unless signed by each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; 
 (v) change the percentage of the
Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Advances, or the number of Lenders, that, in each case, shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, unless signed by all Lenders; 

(vi) amend this Section 9.01, unless signed by all Lenders; or 

(vii) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty (except as contemplated by Section 8.08) unless
signed by all Lenders; 
 and provided, further, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the
Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may amend any
Loan Document to correct any errors, mistakes, omissions, defects or inconsistencies, or to effect administrative changes that are not adverse to any Lender, and such amendment shall become effective without any further consent of any other party to
such Loan Document other than the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. 

  
 91 













 (b) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent
of “all Lenders,” “each Lender” or “each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender
whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrowers may elect to replace a
Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity (which is reasonably satisfactory to the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent) shall agree, as of such date, to purchase at par for cash the Advances and other Guaranteed Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and
Acceptance and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date, and (ii) each Borrower shall pay to
such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement all principal, interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such
Non-Consenting Lender by such Borrower to and including the date of termination. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such
Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 SECTION 9.02
Notices, Etc. (a) All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecopier) and mailed (including email as permitted under Section 9.02(b)), telecopied or delivered, if to a Borrower or
the Administrative Agent, to the address, telecopier number or if applicable, electronic mail address, specified for such Person on Schedule II; or, as to a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at such other address as shall be designated by such
party in a written notice to the other parties and, as to each other party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. All such notices and communications shall, when
mailed or telecopied, be effective three Business Days after being deposited in the mails, postage prepaid, or upon confirmation of receipt (except that if electronic confirmation of receipt is received at a time that the recipient is not open for
business, the applicable notice or communication shall be effective at the opening of business on the next Business Day of the recipient), respectively, except that notices and communications to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II, III
or VII shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent. Delivery by telecopier or other electronic communication of an executed counterpart of any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of any Exhibit hereto to
be executed and delivered hereunder shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof. 
 (b) Electronic
Communications. Notices and other communications to the Borrowers, any other Loan Party and the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or
intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Reporting Entity (in the case of the Borrowers and other Loan Parties) and the Administrative Agent (in the case of the Lenders), provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices
to any Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or any Borrower may, in its discretion,
agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 

  
 92 













 Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other
communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function,
as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication
shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the
intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. 

(c) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY
OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR
THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of a Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Platform, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event
shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 

(d) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that any communication has been posted to the Platform
shall constitute effective delivery of such information, documents or other materials to such Lender for purposes of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has
on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each
Lender acknowledges that it will receive Borrower Materials that may contain material non-public information with respect to a Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States federal or state
securities laws. 
 (e) If any notice required under this Agreement is permitted to be made, and is made, by telephone, actions taken or
omitted to be taken in reliance thereon by the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be binding upon the Borrowers notwithstanding any inconsistency between the notice provided by telephone and any subsequent writing in confirmation thereof
provided to the Administrative Agent or such Lender; provided that any such action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have been in good faith and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 93 













 (f) With respect to notices and other communications hereunder from a Borrower to any
Lender, such Borrower shall provide such notices and other communications to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver such notices and other communications to any such Lender in accordance with subsection
(b) above or otherwise. 
 SECTION 9.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies
herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by applicable law. 
 SECTION 9.04 Costs and Expenses.
(a) The Reporting Entity agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, upon demand, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each Agent in connection
with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including (i) all due diligence, syndication (including printing and distribution),
duplication and messenger costs and (ii) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of a single primary counsel (and a local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto and with respect to
advising the Agents as to their respective rights and responsibilities under this Agreement. The Reporting Entity further agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, upon demand, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agents and the Lenders, if any, in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement and the other
documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees and expenses of a single primary counsel and an additional single local counsel in any local jurisdictions for the Agents and the Lenders and, in the
case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers of the existence of such conflict, one additional counsel, in connection with the enforcement of rights under this Agreement. 

(b) The Reporting Entity agrees to, and to cause the applicable Borrowers to, indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and Lender and each of
their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, penalties, liabilities and expenses (provided that
the obligations of each Borrower and the Reporting Entity to the Indemnified Parties in respect of fees and expenses of counsel shall be limited to the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for all Indemnified Parties, taken together (and, if
reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction) and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, of one additional counsel for all Indemnified Parties, taken together (and, if reasonably necessary, one
local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction) (all such claims, damages, losses, penalties, liabilities and reasonable expenses being, collectively, the “Losses”)) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified
Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of, or in connection with the preparation for a defense of, any investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of, related to or in connection with (i) this Agreement,
any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or 

  
 94 













 
(ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of the Consolidated Group or any Environmental Action relating in any way to the Consolidated Group, in each case
whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrowers, their directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person or any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not
the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, except to the extent Losses (A) are found in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct
of such Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates (including any material breach of its obligations under this Agreement), (B) result from any dispute between an Indemnified Party and one or more other Indemnified Parties (other than against an
Agent or Joint Lead Arranger acting in such a role) or (C) result from the claims of one or more Lenders solely against one or more other Lenders (and not claims by one or more Lenders against any Agent acting in its capacity as such except, in
the case of Losses incurred by any Agent or any Lender as a result of such claims, to the extent such Losses are found in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (including any material breach of its obligations under this Agreement)) not attributable to any actions of a member of the Consolidated Group and for which the members of the Consolidated Group otherwise
have no liability. The Borrowers further agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to the Borrowers or any of their shareholders or creditors for or in connection with this
Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances, except to the extent such liability is found in a final nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (including any material breach of its obligations under this Agreement). In no event, however, shall any Indemnified Party be liable on any theory of
liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9.04(b) shall not apply with respect to
Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. 

(c) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurocurrency Rate Advance is made by a Borrower to or for the account of a Lender
other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of (i) a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.08, 2.10(e), 2.12 or 2.14, (ii) acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to
Section 6.01, (iii) a payment by an assignee to any Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance upon an assignment of the rights and obligations of such Lender under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07 as
a result of a demand by such Borrower pursuant to Section 9.07(b) or (iv) for any other reason, such Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional reasonable losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion or as a result of any inability to Convert or
exchange in the case of Section 2.10 or 2.14, including, without limitation, any reasonable loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired
by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance. 

  
 95 













 (d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the
agreements and obligations of each Borrower contained in Sections 2.13, 2.16 and 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

SECTION 9.05 Right of Setoff. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making
of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at
any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the applicable Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, whether or not such Lender shall
have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify such Borrower after any such setoff and application is made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such
notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender and their Affiliates under this Section 9.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff)
that such Lender and their Affiliates may have. 
 SECTION 9.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement became effective on the Closing Date
and, thereafter, has been and shall continue to be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the
Loan Parties shall have no right to assign their rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Lender, and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void. 

SECTION 9.07 Assignments and Participations. 

(a) Each Lender may, with the consent of (x) the Borrowers, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (y) the
Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, assign to one or more Persons (other than natural persons, Defaulting Lenders, Disqualified Lenders or the Reporting Entity or its Affiliates) all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment or the Advances owing to it); provided that (A) the consent of the Borrowers shall not be required while an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, (B) the consent of the Borrowers shall be deemed given if the Borrowers shall not have objected within 10 Business Days following receipt of written notice of such proposed assignment, and (C) in the
case of an assignment to any other Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender, no such consent shall be required from (x) the Administrative Agent or (y) the Borrowers with respect to assignments by any Lender to its Affiliate or to another
Lender; provided that in each such case prior notice thereof shall have been given to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. 

  
 96 













 (b) Upon demand by the Borrowers (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative
Agent) (w) any Defaulting Lender, (x) any Lender that has made a demand for payment pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.16, (y) any Lender that has asserted pursuant to Section 2.10(b) or 2.14 that it is impracticable or unlawful for such
Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or (z) any Lender that fails to consent to an amendment or waiver hereunder for which consent of all Lenders (or all affected Lenders) is required and as to which the Required Lenders shall have given
their consent, will assign to one or more Persons designated by the Borrowers all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all of its Commitment or the Advances owing to it). 

(c) In each such case, 

(A) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this
Agreement; 
 (B) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender or
an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Commitment or Advances of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the
date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless otherwise agreed by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent; 

(C) [Reserved]; 

(D) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.07(b) shall be arranged by
the Borrowers with the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a
portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that, in the aggregate, cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement; 

(E) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrowers pursuant to
Section 9.07(b), (1) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from one or more assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender,
together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount, and from the Reporting Entity or one or more assignees in an aggregate amount equal to all other amounts accrued to such Lender under this Agreement (including,
without limitation, any amounts owing under Section 2.13, 2.16 or 9.04(c)) and (2) unless and until the Reporting Entity shall have paid (or caused to be paid) to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500;
provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and 

  
 97 













 (F) the parties to each such assignment (other than, except in the case of a
demand by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.07(b), the Borrowers) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance and, if such assignment does not occur as
a result of a demand by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.07(b) (in which case the Reporting Entity shall pay or cause to be paid the fee required by subclause (E)(3) of Section 9.07(c)), a processing and recordation fee of $3,500;
provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
 (d) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) 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 Acceptance, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from
its obligations under this Agreement, except that such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of Sections 9.04(a) and (b) with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender
hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). 

(e) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree
with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: 
 (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance,
such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; 
 (ii)
such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrowers or the performance or observance by the Borrowers of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any
other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; 
 (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(e) 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
Acceptance; 
 (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, such assigning Lender or any other
Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; 

  
 98 













 (v) [Reserved]; 

(vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise
such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, 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. 
 (f) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information
contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers. 
 (g) The Administrative Agent, acting solely
for this purpose as the agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02(a) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses
of the Lenders and the Commitments and Advances of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent demonstrable error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (h) Each Lender may
sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates, any Defaulting Lender, any Disqualified Lender or any natural person) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it) without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers; provided, however, that: 

(i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment) shall remain unchanged;

 (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; 

(iii) such Lender shall remain the Lender of any such Advance for all purposes of this Agreement; 

  
 99 













 (iv) the Borrowers, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; and 

(v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement, or any consent to any departure by the Borrowers herefrom or therefrom, except as to matters requiring the approval of all the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.01. 

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers after any sale of a participation by such Lender pursuant to this Section 9.07(h);
provided that the failure of such Lender to give notice to the Borrowers as provided herein shall not affect the validity of such participation or impose any obligations on such Lender or the applicable participant. 

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent
of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the
“Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a
participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit
or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable 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. 
 (i) Any Lender 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 Borrowers
furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Information
relating to the Borrowers received by it from such Lender as more fully set forth in Section 9.08 and subject to the requirements of Section 9.08 (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in such
agreement, the Borrowers shall be third party beneficiaries of such agreement). 
 (j) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this
Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation and the Advances owing to it) to secure obligations of such Lender, including, without
limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender. 

  
 100 













 (k) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have
any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be
obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or participant or prospective Lender or participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of
loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to, or the restrictions on any exercise of rights or remedies of, any Disqualified Lender. The list of Disqualified Lenders may be provided on a confidential basis to Lenders and to potential
assignees and participants. 
 SECTION 9.08 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees,
agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent
requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (provided that the Administrative Agent or Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will, to the extent practicable and other than with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank
accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, notify the Borrowers promptly thereof, unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation), (d) to any other party hereto,
(e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the
same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its managers,
administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives) to any swap or derivative or similar transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrowers and their obligations,
this Agreement or payments hereunder, (iii) any rating agency, or (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, (g) with the consent of the Borrowers, (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly
available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a
source other than the Borrowers or (i) with respect to the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement, to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments and Advances. 

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and all information received
from the Consolidated Group relating to the Consolidated Group or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a
non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Consolidated Group. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with
its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information but in any case reasonable care. 

  
 101 













 SECTION 9.09 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 9.10 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

 SECTION 9.11 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties
hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to (x) this
Agreement, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 9.02), certificate, request, statement,
disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopier,
facsimile or in a pdf or similar file shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable; provided, without limiting the foregoing,
(i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower
or any other Loan Party without further verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic Signature and (ii) upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, any Electronic Signature
shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower and each Loan Party hereby (i) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any
workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf or any other

paper original, (ii) each other party hereto may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed
created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and
enforceability as a paper record), (iii) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper
original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (iv) waives any claim against any other party hereto or any Related Party of any
such Person for any losses, claims (including intraparty claims), demands, damages, penalties or liabilities of any kind arising solely from reliance by any party hereto on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed
pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any losses, claims (including intraparty claims), demands, damages, penalties or liabilities of any kind arising as a result of the failure of
any Borrower and/or any Loan Party to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature. 

  
 102 













 SECTION 9.12 Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal court of the United States of the Southern District of New York sitting in the city of New York in the Borough of Manhattan (or in the
event such courts lack subject matter jurisdiction, any New York State court sitting in the city of New York in the Borough of Manhattan), and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, 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 shall be heard and determined in any such 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. 

(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 in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in
this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The Loan Parties hereby appoint STERIS Corporation, 5960 Heisley Road, Mentor, Ohio 44060-1834, or should it subsequently have
its principal place of business in The City of New York, at such principal place of business notified to the Administrative Agent, as their agent for service of process, and agree that service of any process, summons, notice or document by hand
delivery or registered mail upon such agent shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or proceeding brought in any court referenced in Section 9.12(b). 

SECTION 9.13 Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies
the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Loan Parties and other
information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Loan Parties shall provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take
such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lenders in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act. 

SECTION 9.14 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In its capacity as an Agent or a Lender, (a) no Agent or Lender has any
responsibility except as set forth herein and (b) no Agent or Lender shall be subject to any fiduciary duties or other implied duties (to the extent permitted by law to be waived). Each of the Borrowers agrees that it will not take any position
or bring any claim against any Agent or any Lender that is contrary to the preceding sentence. 

  
 103 













 In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in
connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof), the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that: (i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrowers and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Lenders, on the other hand; (ii) each Agent and each Lender is and has been acting
solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor or agent for the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates, or any other Person; and (iii) the
Agents, the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and no Agent or Lender has any obligation to disclose
any of such interests to the Borrowers or their Affiliates. 
 SECTION 9.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of the parties hereto in the negotiation,
administration, performance or enforcement thereof. 
 SECTION 9.16 Conversion of Currencies. If, for the purpose of obtaining
judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 

The obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the
“Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”),
be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the
relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, each Borrower agrees, as
a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss with respect to such Borrower. The obligations of each Borrower contained in this Section 9.16 shall survive the termination of
this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder. 
 SECTION 9.17 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 9.18 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any of the parties hereto, each party hereto (for purposes of this Section 9.18, the “Acknowledging
Party”) acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution
Authority, and each Acknowledging Party agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 

  
 104 













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

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected
Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to the Acknowledging Party or otherwise conferred on the Acknowledging Party, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by the
Acknowledging Party in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of
the applicable Resolution Authority.
